To be Factionless

[Tom Marvolo Riddle]

Dear Dataverse,
Since my coming to the Omniverse I've been treated to great minds, involved in a war not my own, witnessed the banishing of sentients, discovered through media what became of my world after the Second World War and more than anything I realize now that there are few factions isolated enough to avoid being involved with others. The biggest of such is led by my former headmaster Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore, to be involved in that education system is to be subject to that state's traditions and bylaws.

This is Unacceptable.

Soon I shall be bringing about the full glory of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, but I can only staff it with so many Secondaries, there are limits to my power at the moment and more so to theirs. So thus I will be interested to aid and accept all those wishing to help spread the magic of the arcane crafts to all those willing, able to listen and practice them. Progress for progress sake, not for the welfare of the state but rather the Arts themselves and the people who use them.

I am painfully aware I am not of Instructorship material, so I'm seeking out knowledge from all willing and taking suggestions to improve the concept on. If nothing else, my frequent perusal of modern movies has shown me that the universe and by extension the multiverse holds something much more vast than my little corner of the Wizarding World had been. While I

Thoughts, comments, suggestions and unhelpful nonconstructive criticisms wrought by ignorance?

dear sir monroe,

hello again!!!! it is sooo great to see that you are recovering well enough to be your usual inquisitive self, haha!!! :) i hope you wont mind if i contribute a few thoughts of my own to this board, since no one else has as of yet.

soooooo, you want to build a place for learning, is that it?? sounds like a plan!! you ought to make sure it isnt in some highly dangerous place— while being in moderate terror can sometimes be conducive to learning, you cant let anyone get seriously hurt!!! where are you thinking of constructing this school of witchcraft and wizardry, if i might ask?????? that isnt a total secret that needs to be kept on the hush-hush, right?????

im not sure if the kind of witchcraft you are on about is anything like the kind i wield, but i would certainly help with the foundation and securing of such a magicky place. with so many variations on semi-familiar abilities throughout this omniverse, it really opens up hundreds of new realms of learning!!!!! who wouldnt want to stick around to witness that???

staffing the place could be a real problem— im not certain if any prime stays in one place for long, there are just so many things happening all the time!! i would try and get in touch with an established faction, if i were you. while you are busy building and terraforming reality to reflect your schools form, they can scope out anyone who would be interested in the upkeep of this hogwarts place!!! i could ask around for you, as well!!

just some things to consider!! :)

Miss Jade,
It’s always a delight to hear from you. And it was your ear in particular that I was hoping to catch with this open letter. Witch of Space is a moniker that I find utterly fascinating in the terms of the world I came from, and the conclusions I can draw from it has me grateful for whatever wisdom you can impart upon me. As the Man once said, variety is the spice of life.

At the moment though the location of Hogwart shall remain a secret because I have yet to settle on a specific place within the Verse in question; but once I do have it established, I will be opening it up to the public. Although, recent events have conspired for me to use it for other means until I can secure a full staff and faculty relating to issues of war and peace. And the issues of invaders of other factions have me wary of attack before I’m ready to handle despots and vagabonds.

But then again the Founders built Hogwarts in mind of defending itself from muggle and magical foe alike and I would remiss to not to include those same basic ideas in the foundation of its recreation. And as my headmaster has failed to make his presence known in any form upon the Dataverse… I am to say without aid of my own people so I must make do where I can. However you are not my last resort- far from it. But it is an interesting quandary I find myself in as I must now begin construction from memory alone and I do not pretend to know all the answers to all the mysteries that exist within those hallowed halls though I dearly wish otherwise.

But that also leaves me open for artistic license and as primes seem to be a flighty sort I may have to look to those secondaries of higher quality. But any sort you can muster for my cause I would he ever so welcome and should it fit your fancy, you and yours will always be welcome in my abode to teach, lecture, too rest or otherwise. Your counsel as of late has sustained me as it were where the common droll has not.

For now though I shall see if the figures of my immediate past may desire to return to their position they filled in my own world.

Thankful and Genuinely yours,
David Monroe
