Getting Involved
This is a game-wide plot as such a variety of characters can be involved.
Muggle Phase: Muggle born students who are still in contact with their families may hear about it in letters from home or read about it in newspapers they get sent at school. Muggle born adults might wish to host a child or offer to send money to help the charity. Those who are known to have an interest in muggle affairs might debate the politics of it or try to help in some way.
Wizarding Phase: (Not yet implemented) You could be a journalist interviewing the people organizing the evacuation of the children or those who take in the children. You could be a non-MLE Ministry employee looking to help with the evacuation. Perhaps you are a childless adult or even one with children, and have space to house a child. Maybe you are a concerned purist and are worried about the origins of the arriving children? This is not an action plot but one which will stretch out and enable several types of characters to get involved. If you are interested contact me. Any logs which reference the plot should be tagged appropriately so they appear on this page. Thanks!
