No New Posts Sorting Ceremony

If you are creating a student, it does not matter what age they are, they still need to be sorted. That is why it is important to include as much information about your character as you possibly can. If you have an older student, you must provide a thorough background story about their previous years at Ilvermorny.

*The sorting ritual consists of new students filing into the round entrance room that contains nothing more that four statues that represent the four houses: Horned Serpent, Thunderbird, Pukwudgie, and Wampus.
To be selected, a student must go to the center of the room where a great Gordian Knot is set into the floor. They must stand upon the Knot. Once a house is decided upon, the statues respond.
*If the Horned Serpent wants the student, the crystal set into its forehead will light up.
*If the Wampus wants the student, it roars.
*If Thunderbird desires the student, it signifies its approval by beating its wings.
*If Pukwudgie wants the student, it will raise its arrow into the air.
*If the student is presented with more than one house, he or she can choose which house they wish to be be in.

When your character is ready to be sorted, you will be alerted. You must look here for a thread that is titled with your character's name. You will find an image with the corresponding mascot of your house!

No New Posts Casper's Cove

Located near Lake Ontario, it appears to no-maj folks as nothing more than a treacherous mountain range. Casper's Cove is actually located inside a mountain. The main access point is through a large mouth that opens at, you guessed it, a cove by the lake. This opening to not visible or accessible to anyone who is not magical. It is also magically protected against flooding. Even though it is located inside a mountain, the whole town is enchanted so that once inside, the mountain disappears.
Casper's cove is a comfy little town with an apothecary, a general store, and several cobble stone streets that are lined with lovely little houses.

No New Posts Salem's Remembrance

This is a small, coastal wizarding town located within Salem, Massachusettes. It often acts as one of the gateways to Ilvermorny for students. It is protected by heavy magic and an enchanted wood that keeps no-maj people at bay. The woods that surround it are believed by non-magical people to be cursed, and the wizards that live there prefer it to remain that way. But Salem's Remembrance is a quiet little wizarding village with quaint homes and a small apothecary. Most of the families that dwell there are descendants of those who were involved in the Salem Witch Hunts. Witches and wizards that were able to escape prosecution founded Salem's Remembrance as a sanctuary from the vengeful no-majes and Scourers of the time. It is named in honor of the innocent witches and wizards that were killed during the Salem Witch Hunts.

Ilvermorny School of Witchcraft and Wizardry

No New Posts Ilvermorny School of Witchcraft and Wizardry

Set high up in the ridges of Mount Greylock, surrounded by a dense forest and an even denser brume, sets Ilvermorny School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. The school is protected by powerful cloaking and concealing magic.

Taking much of its educational structure from Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardy, Ilvermorny is a large castle that serves as a boarding school for young students of a magical nature.

The castle is a majestic structure with tall towers and a beautiful a round entrance room that is topped with an elegant glass cupola. Inside, an ornate balcony lines the circumference of the room, overlooking the entrance hall below. Here, current students and Ilvermorny faculty watch as new students enter to be sorted.

Before entering, students are greeted by two vast marble statues of the founders Isolt and James Steward. Once inside, the students wait to be called, one by one, into the center of the room. They then stand upon a large symbol that is embedded into the floor, a Gordian Knot which is the symbol of Ilvermorny. Around them stand four carvings with crystals set into their heads, one for each house; a Horned Serpent, a panther Wampus, a Thunderbird and a Pukwudgie.

Once a student is in place, the selecting house's carving will react by illuminating the crystal within its head. If more than one crystal alights, then the student may chose the house that he or she wishes to be in.
