plot & general info;;
voldemort has taken over the british isles, killing both harry potter and neville longbottom as soon as he heard about the prophecy. the ministry of magic is now controlled by death eaters and the dark forces. creatures have greater freedoms, magical folks are forbidden from associating with muggles- good things and bad things have happened. in hogwarts, voldemort is the headmaster. most of the teachers gleefully teach their subjects, no matter how neutral or dark they are. two teachers- both creature mages, creatures that have the ability to take a human wizard or witch form- are starting to turn against voldemort for their own reasons. what will happen? who knows?
(general information)
(general information)
- voldemort took over ministry and the whole british magical isles area, death eaters became most of government- voldemort is based in hogwarts and runs the land
- cirriculum more focused on dark arts now- defense against the dark arts split into two classes, dark arts and general defense
- other european countries reasonably wary of him, but don't fight him as long as he stays in the british isles
- many bans on magic have been revoked. muggleborns do not get letters from hogwarts. most likely, they get letters from other magical schools now.
- fear from many light families- many go into hiding
- wizard/muggle contact is forbidden. half-bloods are still accepted in society, but they're generally shunned by the purebloods. half-bloods born after the war are not accepted at hogwarts
- the muggle government is out of touch with the wizarding government - they'll have no idea what the sudden chaos is about and have to figure out a way to deal with it while totally blind on what the wizards are doing - perhaps even their memories are wiped for total wizard/muggle separation
- crime rates would go up because of dark magic usage. much of the magic banned before and declared dark was most likely full of good spells, though- just named dark because of the way one or two wizards used it. stuff like weather affecting magic could be in there, and the only ones that couldn't be declared banned were medical spells.
- some magic is very dark, though, and does have effects on the casters
- old ways are revived- olde ways of holidays, rituals, etc.
- less discrimination against werewolves, vampires, etc, but the populace still is wary of many creature species, especially the non humanoid ones

| Professor Nieth Khata | sphinx mage | looks to be in her late twenties, about twice that age | she/her |
- tall, lithe and catlike in her human form. her skin is a shade too dark to be tanned and her jet black hair is cut at her shoulders and always left loose. her eyes are almond shaped and bright amber, always focused and alert. she wears robes, simple and usually colourless, keeping any embellishments to her hands in the form of rings. word around the castle is that she's charmed them all and that that's why she never takes them off. they're only half right.
- highly intelligent and fascinated by puzzles and riddles just like most of her kind but also by learning and exploration which is what originally drove her to leave Egypt in favour of studying magic as a mage. she found particular joy in the dark arts but found that she would not be taught no matter where she turned so, after dabbling in studies of most kinds of magic, she made do with masteries in charms and potions. teaches potions at Hogwarts. is head of Ravenclaw house but isn't exactly known to be warm towards them so much as appreciate their curiosity. being a sphinx gives her strength a human being should not possess but as most of the strength is centred in her paws, she's far weaker in her human form. a quick learner but not naturally a wielder of magic so she's never seen without her wand - maple with a dragon heartstring core, 12" and swishy.
- she is pretty much the only sphinx working with voldemort as they are rare outside of northern africa with the exception of mages and treasure keepers such as those at gringotts. however, very few of them would give up their treasure even with the promise of new information. she originally joined him because he offered to teach her the dark arts in exchange for her loyalty. teach her he did, she's now an incredibly gifted dark witch, finding it easier to wield than light magic. she's a woman of her word so she's stuck by him ever since. she's rebelling against him now because he's restricting learning at Hogwarts and she can't stand by that.
