User blog:Ckohrs0221/Hogwarts 2028-2029 Expansion-- Triwizard Tournament!

Hopefully the Super Final kept you entertained the last two weeks… entertained and slightly distracted enough not to notice that there’s no summer expansion for the 2028 summer.

There’s a reason there’s no summer expansion-- it will give you 4 weeks to prepare for the next upcoming expansion, which will take place over the next Hogwarts School Term!

That’s right! We’re taking another stab at a Triwizard Tournament!! Read on to find out the details!

Who’s Coming?
As per canon, the Triwizard Tournament will include Durmstrang Institute, Beauxbatons Academy, and Hogwarts School.

Who Can Play?
Like we did last time, to include more people, we will have six champions-- one male, and one female from each of the three schools. You may submit up to three characters-- you can do three from one school, or one from each-- that’s up to you. But you aren’t allowed to enter more than three characters. The champions MUST have completed their OWLs at the start of the 2028 term-- so only 6th and 7th years are allowed.

IC-- the tournament will not be announced until the opening feast. Your characters will NOT know about the tournament until that time. You may take the summer to plan your expansion characters, if you want them, but IC summer will remain the same-- no one will know about the tournament yet.

If you get foreign students approved before the start of the year, you may RP them in London/Hogsmeade if you wish…. However, the foreign students won’t be arriving until Hogwarts Week 2, like they do canonically from the books.

What does the Calendar look like?

 * Week 1/Opening Feast: Tournament Announced IC, Hogwarts can start putting their names in the Goblet
 * Start of Week 2: Beauxbatons/Durmstrang Arrive, Foreign Students enter names into goblet
 * End of Week 2: Champions Chosen
 * Week 4: First Task
 * Week 5: Yule Ball
 * Week 7: Second Task
 * Week 9: Third Task, Winner Declared


 * Also, similarly to canon… Hogwarts Quidditch will not run this year. So we will not pick House Captains, just Prefects and Head Students.

Who’s Judging?

 * Elmira Griffin: Headmistress of Hogwarts (Alyssa)
 * Luc Le Clerc: Highmaster of Durmstrang (Jisk)
 * Beauxbatons Headmistress (Lilly)
 * Head of the Department of Magical Games and Sports (Carn)

CK will serve as the GM for all the tasks. The tasks have already been determined… but we are keeping them secret until it is time for them to be unveiled!
