Over a thousand years ago, the four greatest witches and wizards of the age shared a dream, to create a school where young people of the wizarding world could study and be trained in the magical arts they needed to become skilled, fully-trained wizards. These four great wizards each founded one of the Houses of the school that they worked together to form: Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
Now decades later, the rift between Gryffindors and Slytherins has come to a boiling point. Even the Ravenclaws and Hufflepuffs have joined in the action of ridiculing the ambitious Slytherins. But even so, the amity between the Gryffindors, Ravenclaws, and Hufflepuffs is starting to head south of the line.
The Founders’ Challenge is what the Hogwarts Staff has considered to be the best solution for the immature rifts between the four houses. Seen as a befitting way to help repair an extensive amount of damage that has accumulated over the ages in a time that is on the verge of a dark and deadly magical war.
However, the students are not too keen on making nice and strengthening the extremely weaken bonds that were once unbreakable. Oh no, the students want absolutely nothing to do with one another on that large of a scale; especially the elite Slytherins. But they will soon enough see that the Hogwarts Staff is not taking ‘No’ for an answer.
Three champions from each of the four houses; all from different years; will be chosen at random to be resorted by the Sorting Hat and placed into the second choice house base on family status; blood status; and personality alone. All expected to follow and live up to the regulations and expectations imposed upon them by their new house and housemates for three months. All of this while earning points for their own original house.
Who will survive the three month trials and give their house the advantage of winning the House Cup for the year? Which students will crack under pressure and come out with a new sense of self; whether it be for the best or for the worst?
Do you dare to take it upon yourself to take on the challenge?
