Now, though, the pressure is on - it's time to tell us what you choose to do with that lucky, lucky potion.
In 400 to 900 words, you are to write a short story about a character who has consumed Felix Felicis. Does your character go through several difficult challenges in their search for chocolate bunnies, but manage to collect them all in the end? Perhaps your character was finally able to rid their garden forever of those pesky little gnomes that seemed to cause nothing but trouble? What happens to your character while Felix Felicis courses through their veins is entirely up to you - with some extra luck on their side, the possibilities truly are endless!
However... there is one catch. In your entry, you cannot use ANY of the following words. Should you do so, your entry will be disqualified:
Liquid
Luck / Lucky
Drink / Drinking
Inspired / Inspiration / Inspiring
Powerful / Power
Gold / Golden
Confident / Confidence
Excellent / Excellence
4:12 PM
It had started off like every other ordinary Monday for Eve Bowen. The brunette had dragged herself out of bed and gone through her usual morning routine before heading out the door to face the day. Had she any idea what she'd go through next, she would've caved to her Monday blues and stayed in bed that morning.
Eve was about three-quarters of the way across the Millenium Bridge when loud, deafening blasts resonated from behind her. The next thing she knew, the pavement beneath her feet had given way, and she was knocked towards one side of the bridge by the momentum. Her heart was pounding heavily against her chest, and her head swam as she tried to hear through the shrill ringing in her ears. Eve's breaths grew shorter as she tried to make sense of what was happening, and she continued to hold on tightly to the railing of the bridge in spite of the pain radiating from her ribs due to the earlier impact.
There were people all around her screaming and running past her in both directions, but Eve remained frozen in place where she was, tightening her grip around the railings. With the bridge violently twisting from one side to another and rolling up and down, she began to feel an overwhelming, impending sense of doom. The wisps of smoke she was seeing from the corners of her eyes didn't help either, especially since they vanished the moment she glanced in their directions, resulting in the brunette being convinced that she was seeing things.
It wasn't until a stranger started screaming in her face and tugging at her arm, trying to get her to run towards safety with them, that she snapped back to her senses. Shakily placing one foot in front of the other, Eve began to sprint towards the pier with the stranger, silently praying that they would both make it.
TASK
On June 24, 1996, the Millenium Bridge in London collapsed following an attack by a group of Death Eaters, led by Fenrir Greyback. What could have been the reason behind the Death Eaters' attack on the bridge? Was it just a distraction for the kidnapping which happened in Diagon Alley on that same day, or could it simply be something random? Were both events related or was it just coincidence that they occurred on the same day?
Your task involves roleplaying the events surrounding the bridge collapse within a group of 2 to 4 roleplayers, of which at least one member of the pair/group must play a Death Eater whilst another has to take on the role of a Muggle civilian. Additional member(s) of the group may choose to play any other role, including, but not limited to: another Death Eater, another Muggle civilian, a Muggle official, and/or an Order member. Roleplayers may also choose to play more than one character if they wish.
During the course of the roleplay, each roleplay will receive an additional prompt to which roleplayers will need to respond to as well. These prompts will be randomized from a list of prompts for each roleplay.
