Just a week until the start of the new Hogwarts year! Time to get into the spirit by fleshing our your witch or wizard with the help of this little character template. It’s completely optional but we do ask the majority of this is under READ MORE as it’s a lot to scroll through. You can simply copy/paste, make a nice banner, picture, whatever, or leave it plain for posting! It just all depends on how you wish to do it.
It is completely optional, of course. Just a bit of fun and helpful musings to consider if you want to participate or even just because you like filling things like this out. Tag blbctask017 before posting and your set. Good luck students and staff and as always, have fun!

Nothing too OP like “Changed the weather all around my block in a fit of rage!” or ‘Brought a dead pet back to life.” A good example might be flickering lights if you’re scared. Hair growing faster if you hate a hair cut or clothes shrinking that you didn’t like to wear. Things like that. Be as in depth or vague as you like.)

Hogwarts Life: (Day to day basics. Their local haunts and what you can catch them doing and such. Maybe they’re always studying in the library. Lounging outside or in your common rooms snoozing. Sneaking into the room of requirements to make out with someone. Pulling pranks, and so on.)

♫ Can you feel the love tonight? ♫ If you can’t, ya better hop to it! Valentine’s Day is right around the corner. So it’s only appropriate that blbctask016 is all about love. For this task, you’ll be mapping our your character’s romantic timeline. Tell us about their ex significant others, their past crushes, their romantic ideals - absolutely anything and everything you’d like to share.
Like many of our previous tasks, there’s no set perimeters on this one. You can make it as extra or as simple as you’d like. If you’d like to make a photoset post with their past loves, go for it; if you’d rather simply type out the bare bones information, go for it! You have until next Sunday, February 10th, to have your task posted, and please remember to tag it as blbctask016!
We’ve wanted to find a way to encourage everyone to spread out and interact with new people, and we thought what better way than to hand you the opportunity on a silver platter!
Everyone who likes this post will be paired up with another random muse in the group to write a thread together! We’ll be extra careful to not match anyone up with muses they already have plots with so these threads will all be completely new and organic.
Pairs will be sent out tomorrow evening, that’s Monday the 10th, so get to liking! If you like the post, we’ll assume you want all of your muses to participate, so reply to the post if you want only specific ones to be paired up! We’re really excited about this one, so we hope you are too!
This week’s task is all about family--whether it be biological family, chosen family, or pets. We want to be able to take a deeper look into the relationships in your character’s lives. There’s no set format for this one - if you want to find faceclaims for everyone in your muse’s life, go for it, if you’d rather write out a little description of them, that’s fine too, or if you’d like to do both, awesome! There’s no set perimeters, so make this task your own.
This task will run from today until Sunday the 18th. As always, this one is totally optional, but we hope you participate and have fun with it! Please be sure to tag your task as blbctask014 when you post it, and have fun!
This is an easy one! We want everyone to post a moodboard for their characters. If you aren’t familiar with moodboards, you can find an example here. You can choose to either do a moodboard for your individual character, a ship, or a friendship!
This task is optional, but we would all love to see what you come up with! You have until Sunday the 16th to complete this task, and be sure you tag it as #blbctask011. Happy moodboarding!
This is an easy one! We want everyone to post 5 - 15 headcanons for their characters. These can be about their personality, their wardrobe, their relationships, their past - absolutely anything you want to write about! This is an easy, fun way to get creative with your muses and figure out some fun quirks about them.
This task is optional, but we would all love to see what you come up with! You have until Sunday the 13th to complete this task, and be sure you tag it as #blbctask010. Happy headcanonning!
Everyone is nosy at times, whether they admit it or not. It’s in our nature. This task appeals to that side of us! Unlike our previous tasks, this one will be semi-mandatory. Everyone will be required to fill out the information below the cut and post it with the tag blbctask009.
Where the ‘semi’ come in is we also heavily encourage everybody to also post a biography for your character. Biographies help with muse and development so we would absolutely love to see your muses’! If you already have one written, feel free to either link it with the mandatory statistics or copy and paste it into the post. There are no guidelines for this part!
