They soon looked at the muggle world and became the leading provider of fresh produce in Aberdeen, increasing their wealth substantially.

While the name continues to be one spoken about frequently, it's taken on a new twist as the name of someone innovative and seeking to better the world, not destroy it like previously believed.

Cremation
(Lou)The Cremation is an Anti-Creature foundation, founded by the McPhee's, with a focus on ridding the magical world of dangerous creatures such as werewolves, vampires, veelas, etc. who hold being status. This group was founded by Camden’s grandfather Clifford McPhee and his brothers during a time of unrest in Scotland where creatures were to blame. In today’s society, The Cremation was thought to be disbanded, however, recent events proved that they are still working in the shadows to cleanse the magical communities of these abominations.
Responsible for the events of the Accona Desert Prison and Experimentation on creatures, muggleborns and squibs. Order of the Black Lotus
(Lou)INFORMATION GOES HERE Pure Eternals
(Lou)The Pure Eternals are INH's modern day Death Eaters. They do not have marks or features to distinguish them but they all have a mask and a device which changes their voice so their identity is not discovered by one another or the outside world. The Pure Eternals (or Eternals) believe in blood purity and in pureblood dominance of the Wizarding World. Creature Status is irrelevant but they believe half-bloods are lesser than they are and the muggleborns need to be eliminated as they are defiling the purity of the world.
Semi-responsible for the events of the Accona Desert Prison and Experimentation on creatures, muggleborns and squibs - the Eternals were betrayed by members of the Cremation within their midsts after the mass break out of Azkaban which released Camden McPhee into their midst. Starlings
(Lou)Much like the Order of the Phoenix, the Murmuration of the Starlings was a vigilante group who formed in the light of the Cremation's take over and imprisonment of hundreds of witches and wizards based on their blood status and creature abilities. The Starlings were formed as a group meant to help the overworked Auror office, and because the Ministry was corrupted by members of the Pure Eternals and the Cremation. Vipers
(Lou/Erik)The Vipers are a group of Slytherin Boys who are relatively rowdy, rambunctious and "popular" much like the T-Birds from Grease, they were black leather jackets with vibrant green vipers on the back. They are a tradition passed down from former Slytherins: Joey Maverick, Corvus Grimstone, Leonidas Tristen, Caden Young and Eric Stewart.

Cursed Characters
(Lou/Naomi)The idea of cursed characters came from Naomi, and was later developed by Lou to allow members of the site more opportunity to experiment with ideas, plotlines and create unique characters. Cursed character applications were released in August 2023, more information can be found here: Cursed Character Applications Dragon Bonding
(Tori/Brona and the admins)Dragonology Expansion Eventide Academy
(Lou)Established in 2017, was originally a sister school for Hogwarts students afflicted with vampirism so that they may attend school during the night time. Professors taught day classes and evening classes on a rotation to allow vampires a chance to complete their education.
In Sept of 2019, Eventide Academy transitioned from a sister school of Hogwarts to it's own location in Hogsmeade and offers more courses and opportunities to the greater population, as well as night classes for the vampire population.
You can find more information here: Eventide Academy Experimental Creatures
(Lou)The introduction of experimental creatures is the cause of those creatures being tormented in the prisons of the Accona Desert by notorious members of the Cremation which has shifted their genetic make up and left them unable to perform safely, with skill and without experiencing other levels of trauma but has also given various creatures added benefits. More information can be found here: Creatures and Abilities Information This was implemented by Lou during the rise of the Cremation in 2017-2018. SquibsSquibs are the non-magical offspring of purebloods. They do not have magic or magical abilities and society generally holds a prejudice against Squibs. However, as time has moved forward and the world has become more progressive, Squibs are becoming more accepted into Magical society.
Squibs ARE capable of holding jobs which witches and wizards holds that do NOT require the use of magic. Some examples: Shopkeeper, historian, Professor of theoretical studies (History, Ghoul Studies, Muggle Studies, Potions, the Arts, etc.), work as Clerks within the Ministry, Bartenders, Potioneers, they can get a muggle education and work at St. Mungo's, own restaurants, be in the entertainment business, writers, astronomer, teacher, etc.
Because Squibs are non-magical, they cannot perform/use any item that requires magic IE: brooms, wands, the sorting hat, etc because these items rely on being present to trigger them (as with the wand being the conduit of a witch or wizard's magic). However, Squibs can be affected by the magic within a magical item (such as a cursed item, etc.) and they can use modern technology which has been modified to work within the magical community such as the Wizarding Wireless Communication Devices (cell phones).
Eventually, Squibs will be welcomed at Eventide Academy but we are not quite there yet.

(Lou)After the horrors experienced in the Accona Desert Prison (June 2018), the Head of St. Mungo's opened a new ward dedicated to Mental Health, Counselling and Trauma Therapy to initially combat the rising victims with such traumas from the prison but has since become one of the busiest departments next to the urgent care department. Urgent Care Unit
(Lou)Originally established in approximately 2013, the Urgent Care Unit was opened to provide immediate care to serious situations that cannot wait to be shipped off to their respective floors which then required St. Mungo's Welcome Witch to have some level of healing education in order to assess individual cases.
