[glow=limegreen,2,300]Marauder Studies OWL[/glow]

 

Congratulations - you’ve found your Marauder Studies OWL! Hogwarts has a long and distinguished history of pranksters and mischief makers. If you'd like to join their ranks, you've got to master their games first.

 

This is one of your elective OWLs, and taking it is purely optional. If you're ready to start it, you must post in this thread prior to making any of the posts/reviews/stories it requires. Be aware that though you are free to begin this exam at any time, once you sit down your house cannot begin another exam until you’ve completed this one. Keep in mind that the higher your score, the more points you'll earn, and you may find that a higher mark is a prerequisite to moving onto another exam or area.

 

For this OWL, you must prove that you know your tricks and pranks - and that you're willing to extend the knowledge to others.

 

To receive an A-Acceptable:

• You must write descriptions for five chocolate frog cards. They may be about characters we know or OCs - however, the descriptions must be original.
  
• You must come up with at least three new prank items for a joke shop. They can be prank sweets, magic tricks, flashy fireworks - it's up to you.

 

To receive an E-Exceeds Expectations:

• You must create seven chocolate frog cards. They may be about characters we know or OCs - however, the descriptions must be original.
  
• You must come up with at least five new prank items for a joke shop. They can be prank sweets, magic tricks, flashy fireworks - it's up to you.

 

To receive an O-Outstanding:

• You must create seven chocolate frog cards. They may be about characters we know or OCs - however, the descriptions must be original.
  
• You must come up with at least five new prank items for a joke shop. They can be prank sweets, magic tricks, flashy fireworks - it's up to you.
  
• You must create at least two graphics for any of above cards or prank items. They can look like cards or advertisements, just take the form of picspams, etc - it's up to you. The only requirement is that they be in some kind of graphic form.

 

Please do not include any indication that requirements for this exam are linked to the house cup outside of your house, either in the posts/reviews/stories themselves or on social media. You only have one chance to submit your exam, so choose what mark you want to aim for carefully. Once you've completed these tasks to your liking, post a reply to this topic including all of the relevant text and links.

 

Should you run into difficulties, you’re free to take a fail - but be aware that you won’t be able to change your mind later, and it may result in other areas of the maze and exams (along with any advantages passing them bestows) becoming permanently inaccessible to you even if you can find them the exams themselves.

 

Please note that we would like to use this material to build a resource section for HP fanfic writers and roleplayers, either here on the forums or on our social media. We will attribute the information to the specific members responsible for creating it and request that you be credited for it. If you're not comfortable with this, please say so when you post your exam results.
