Their families survived two wars. They've grown up in a life a relative comfort and ease, a life that didn't have Dark Wizards looming around every corner, didn't have to worry about fighting for their lives before even leaving Hogwarts. Wars were the stuff of History of Magic class, and Voldemort was the name of some mythical monster.

But the more things change, the more things stay the same.

The old blood purists still exist, if only in a vocal minority. New prejudices are rushing in to fill that vacuum (should anyone really trust a pureblood? Or a Slytherin?), and the Ministry of Magic is still rebuilding and recouping it's loses. Bigger and shinier buildings, new hires, fancy recruiting posters, none of that matters when everyone is tired of fighting. There's not enough Aurors to go around, after all, and the unsavory elements of society are well aware of that.

It's not about survival anymore. They've already survived. It's about forgetting, about moving on, about not learning the lessons of decades past.

It's about a generation on the brink, stuck between the horror of the past and the glory of a promised future.

They're the chosen ones, and the future is what they make it. For better or worse.

This is a post-Hogwarts, next generation Harry Potter game set in 2030. The focus is on the children of characters from the books and their lives after school, when the only thing they have to worry about is making living, and not about surviving a war. For the moment, anyway!

The following characters are alphabetized by father's last name. The children are listed from oldest to youngest. Pairings that include (MUGGLE) for one of the parents means the character is a halfblood with one muggle parent whose name and background is up to you. Pairings that include (MUGGLEBORN), (HALFBLOOD), OR (PUREBLOOD) for one of the parents means that that parent attended some other Wizarding school aside from Hogwarts. Their names and background are up to the player.
