So, on another character, I've been waiting for quite a while for the mirror to put a face on the wall, or respond. How often does the Mirror log on and update the wall?

Hello Tessa!


The Mirror has been far more active these days than when it was in the hands of its previous operators. I have full confidence in saying I'm sure it will be updated very soon! Just be patient! Does this assist you?

Hmm. Yes and no. I'm wondering, does more than one person attend to the wall, or is it just one? If so, what time zone are they in? What's their name? Do they have other characters? What's their favorite color?

Hello Tessa!


I believe we are currently working to put more than one person in charge of the Mirror, but as of now one person oversees it. EST, Unimportant, Yes, Blue. Hope this helps!

Wait, you didn't ask the most important question: Do they like....mirrors?

Hello Rosalie!



I would honestly have to say yes, they do.

Do they believe mirrors will steal their soul? As a vampire, I need to know this crucial information.

On another slightly unrelated note, I am curious. Does the name Mirror Mirror imply that the Mirror has a split personality, or maybe that there are two mirrors. If there are two mirrors, does this then mean that Mirror Mirror is a Mirrorception?

To Rosalie: No they do not!


To Tessa: Mirror Mirror is a reference to the age old fairytale Snow White and the Seven Dwarves! In this fairytale the Wicked Queens' magical incantation starts out as "Mirror Mirror on the wall." Hence the name of the Mirror!

But...but...Does this mean that EVERYONE is the fairest one of all? Or who is Snow White?!

In essence, we imply that all of our members are beautiful in their own right, but also that the Mirror Mirror operates fairly and adheres to strict codes of honor! It's also incredibly clever, no? ;)


Also, according to JK Rowling, Snow White was a real young lady who fell victim to the jealousy of a Hag who used beautification spells to make herself beautiful. Tragic story, but that is where muggles get the fairytale.

Okay, serious time. So, how do we get involved with plots more involving the castle, not like the Ministry.

Inquisitive group aren't we?


Plots are fantastically available to you. At the moment, there is a Site Plot going on ... and there are a couple students that are in need of people to help them with quests, for example, in this RP I imagine that Maggie could use some help ... and Dominic could use some support in this element on the plot...



For non-site-wide plots, ones focused into Hogwarts, check out the super awesome PLOT VAULT where students post their own plots that are looking for people to get involved.

Ahhh.... it feels like home with this topic in the question area. I missed it!

Also, I have been tending to the mirror and will get to it later tonight or tomorrow morning. We are working to get a group to tend to it.
