Wizarding Families of the World

wizarding families of the world

The secret society of the magical world has many hidden wonders. The way of accessing these wondrous things though is magical blood. It's been stated that Magic runs in families. Muggleborns are simply the descendants of Squibs (non-magical offspring of magical parents.) JK Rowling also supplied us with a plethora of family names, names we know exist in the magical world. (These names we found from books, movies, Pottermore, and even the games.) But we're supplied very little information about these families modern day descendants . These families are entirely up for grabs for characters. We like to call them 'Original canons', basically canon names (because we know they exist) but original because you can do whatever you want to these families. So, a few ground rules about them, to start:

• Let us know by posting in this thread if you are claiming a family name.
• You have complete control over the workings of the family name you claim. Parents, blood status (They do have to be half or pureblood. Since these are magical families no muggleborn.), siblings, history, etc.
• No direct descendance of characters we know died. You can make relatives of them though.
• These do count as 'canon' characters. That means all rules relating  to canon characters apply to these family names. (example. If you are a returning member you can't use one of these family names for your first character back.)

An interesting twist to these families is that as of this moment they are the only ones (besides regular canons) that can be Purebloods if you choose it. After all, these families are entirely up to  you. Purebloods are not common, and most wizards now a days are half bloods, according to JK Rowling. Which is why Alohomora will only be permitting known magical families for consideration for this blood status from now on. So if you want a pureblood? Guess you have to take one of these names or a known pureblood on the canon list.

*This list is still being compiled so there are likely many, many more names to add! If you know of any names we can add contact Admin Sora .*

**The Sacred 28 that can be used have not been added yet to this list while we research into each family to ensure they are safe to put up for grabs**
