Thank you! We appreciate you taking the time to ask some great questions!
• Overall, it will lean towards a SoL/Sandbox atmosphere, with light-hearted and fun events thrown in from time to time. Additionally, for those interested in the broader scope, the Ministry of Magic is actively investigating your appearance here and hoping to find a way to reverse it. Other plots will revolve around the Death Eaters and the continued search for their master 3 years after his death/disappearance, including opportunities for characters to explore and align themselves with the darker side of the Wizarding World.
•Yes, although you could app them as a ghost if you wanted to go for a different sort of play style. Ghostly opportunities are much more limited, however.
• Canon powers are not allowed. However, characters with any sorts of powers or strengths in canon will find that they might have an affinity for certain branches of magic. Telepaths, for example, would do well with memory charms. If a character is extremely powerful in canon, they might find their spells and incantations a bit above the rest in terms of strength.
• Adults are all taught via the homeschooling program, where they will mainly review their course material in the privacy of their living quarters. During the summer, when students are away for the summer holidays, they will take up residence in Hogwarts for the duration of the holidays. Adults will have plenty of opportunity to roam Hogwarts and the grounds, however, as there will be weekly practice sessions held at the castle for adults to put their studies to good use.
• Yes, as long as there's no risk, characters may opt out of a full education. They must practice their magic to some extent in order for their extra powers to begin to dissipate. The Ministry of Magic also asks that regardless, they remain in the wizarding world for the time being.
• Adults will be staying in Hogsmeade village, which is located just outside of Hogwarts. Initially, they will be staying at the Three Broomsticks inn, a small but cozy cottage-like pub. Characters may also stay in the Leaky Cauldron, a pub attached to Diagon Alley. Eventually, the Ministry of Magic will provide them their own one bedroom cottage in Hogsmeade, for cooperating and good behavior.
• They can! Shopkeepers in Hogsmeade and Diagon Alley are always looking for assistants to keep things tidy. Until the Ministry knows that you can be trusted not to break the statute of secrecy, they ask that you not venture into the muggle world. They are willing to look into it in the future, but for now the risk is too great.
• If they express interest, they are more than willing to teach those things!
