AHHH it's my first Bi-Weekly Update! I have been thrust into the Responsibility Chair, and, now that I have just about finished hyperventilating, I'm ready to get this party starteedd! 
Revision Week!
Can you believe it?! Sorting only closed like... yesterday!
But seriously, exams are nearing, which means it's even more important than usual for Professors to be up to date with their lessons and marking! Remember that if you ever have any trouble or fall behind, all you need to do is let us know and we'll be able to cover for you. It looks as if Ravenclaw are currently in the lead with House Points - exciting! I think Hufflepuff could still totally overtake them, though 
*nudge nudge*
Halloween Costume Contest Winners
Halloween is over!
It was great fun, though! There was a wonderful variety of costumes at the feast, and the time has come to announce the winners! So, without further ado...
Best Overall: Lennon Cohen-Knight as an Astronaut
Best Magically Enhanced: Professor Arvo Tuuri as Louis the XIV
Best Group/Couple: Bryony Woods and Liam Adams as Beauty and the Beast
Most Ridiculous: Isaiah Jeffreys as a Ballerina
Most Traditional halloween: Miya Bell as a Werewolf
Most Scary: Pia Morales as a Doll
Congratulations to those who won, and thank you to everyone who took part! Points for the winners will be awarded soon
Quidditch!
The third Quidditch game of the year is upon us! This time it's Hufflepuff vs Ravenclaw, and you can find it right here! Personally I am very excited to see how this will go down. The 'Puffs seem to be making a habit of either winning spectacularly or losing spectacularly with no middle ground, so let's see what happens, shall we?!
We need you! Yes, YOU!
There's still time for those with Auror and Scitorari characters to offer your input and suggestions for plots in your respective headquarters. These two groups have so much potential for fun/conflict/drama, but we can't do it without your help! This is your opportunity to let out that innerbloodthirsty beast angel 
Aurors can find their topic here, and Scitorari here. Also, thank you to everyone who contributed so far - we really appreciate it!
*Hooooowls*
What's that sound?! Oh yeah! That's right, a very fancy game of Werewolf is in full swing! Those who signed up should please try to stay as active as possible during gameplay. Even if you're not playing this time around, you are more than welcome to spectate! Join us here for love, life, death, and apparently some really appalling poetry.
Character Spotlight
As is HNZ tradition, we have chosen another character whose biography and development stand out to us, and that we think deserves some time in the spotlight... literally! This month, it is Kaye's wonderful character Charlotte Owens! You can read her superb biography here, and read her questionnaire and offer your congratulations here. Keep working on those characters - yours could be next![ul][li]Looking for nightmares
