This is an open-ended discussion for the purpose of deciding how the plot ended and the Deva were eventually driven out and how Hogwarts was effected by it. All the rules of the site still apply, if not more so. Do not take each others heads off if you please. Any over offensive posts will be deleted. To try and make sure this stays friendly and free of bloodshed, a few ground rules/guidelines:
It is encouraged to participate in this discussion as the Admin Team is going to pull the ideas from here for the actual conclusion.
A good place to start off would be to decide what everyone did. The bullets above should serve as some helpful starter guidelines. This is what we do not for fact happens:
- Make a conclusion for your character that is realistic to how you were portraying them in the plot. If you had them hiding under the table for the majority, chances are they are not suddenly going to become the grand hero of the day. Stay true to your character.
- Be creative and incorporate ideas you might have had. Did your character escape and if so, how? What did they do after they escaped? Once the Deva were begun to be overwhelmed, however that was, what did your character do? Did they join they fray against the Deva, take up arms with the Deva, or stay neutral? What characters were on the "Regiment" side, the "Deva" side, and who was "on the fence"? How will this effect character interactions in the future?
Not everyone was going to be against the Deva. Are there any characters who believed the Deva were going to win? Did they want to side with the group they thought would win? - Be realistic. How were the Deva defeated? Was it brute force? Clever thinking? Connecting to the outside with the portraits and using Ministry negotiation? A little bit of all three? Something else entirely? These are full-fledged wizards and witches, some of which are powerful, and all of which are skilled in the dark arts in some way or another. The teachers were incapacitated. How did you win?
- Do not attack another member if you do not like their ideas. Explain civilly why you do not like them. And if you do like them, explain why you do and see if you can expand on it.

A good place to start off would be to decide what everyone did. The bullets above should serve as some helpful starter guidelines. This is what we do not for fact happens:
- Robert Shaw escapes. Yes folks, by the skin of his teeth in running for his life, or through negotiation with the Ministry of Magic, Shaw's life is somehow ensured to continue with its fugativity.
- Sienna London is captured. All others have not been cleared. Make sure that a Deva Member agrees to having been captured before making it so.
- Fiona Ticloon is revealed as the Deva Member who aided Hogwart's down fall. She is found on an abandoned island with Thomas Bloxam and is taken into custody.
- The charges against Tamis Raynor are not dropped, but the sentencing is minimal due to the Ministry's embarrassment over the whole issue. In the end, she is reinstated at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft of Wizardry and with Fiona cleanly-cut out of the picture, reluctantly takes on the Headmistress position. This creates a bit of a controversy with the public.
- It will be up to all of you as to whether or not Defense Against the Dark Arts is reinstated. It could be interesting going in either direction with that one.
