He cited the recent vampire attacks on ministry officials as well as the regulation of wolfsbane for werewolves as causes for this new decree. Minister Delacroix went on to state that “any and all creatures who do not turn themselves in will be dealt with as necessary”. His ominous words were greeted with shocked expressions. Many notable figures in the supernatural community expressed outrage at what they called the minister’s audacious tactics to enslave the supernatural community.
“This is unlawful,” one werewolf told your Daily Prophet reporter as the minister left the conference. “Delacroix can’t do this to us, or our families. First it was the creation of the Muggle Control office, and now it’s the rounding up of supernatural creatures. Soon, it’ll be half-bloods, and who knows? If Delacroix can get enough power, he might even spread beyond Britain.” That concern is echoed among Delacroix’s associates, according to several inside sources; however, it seems no outside force can stop the enigmatic minister.
“They pose a danger to our society,” Delacroix said at an earlier conference when responding to apparent attacks on employees by vampires. “Creatures with that much power and sway.. if they fall into the wrong hands, what could happen? They don’t want to be governed underneath our laws, so why should they be treated as well as they are?”
Delacroix’s decree, as it has come to be called, is already in effect. Minister Delacroix has already assured that the punishment for evading the Ministry would be severe. Below is a list of all the species that are required to turn themselves in.
“Leave,” advises one source who wishes to remain anonymous. “Leave and never come back, not while Delacroix is still in power.” It is unknown if Delacroix will leave the options open for supernatural travel, however.

RADIO UPDATE: earlier today, minister delacroix held a press conference to discuss what would become of the supernatural creatures that were caught by snatchers. delacroix informed the press that there had already been many snatches and the ministry reports lower crime rates. he also stated that "for the safety of the masses, these creatures will be placed in a separate facility designed specifically to meet their needs. citizens are advised to stay away from these separated areas." this, of course, sparked outrage in the community, but since the disbandment of the society for supernatural creatures, they no longer seem to have a voice. details on the building process of these separate areas will come with the next broadcast. until then, stay tuned. |

RADIO UPDATE: the hogwarts headmaster was quoted today saying that he fully supported the ministry's new decree and that he was eager to adopt those principles for the school. naturally, the board of governors for the school have a say in how these policies affect the school, but the headmaster assured yours truly that he would do his best to "fully merge education and government" in a way that hogwarts had never been before. good luck to you, headmaster! in other news, the deputy headmaster is still on leave of absence, and it seems no substitute will be chosen yet. |

RADIO UPDATE: a hogwarts student has been abducted by the snatcher group dens. the controversy between the furious parents and astor delacroix raged on the duration of the press conference this morning. the werewolf diseased child had been out at hogsmeade, the weekend trips permitted by the castle. the minister approved of the abduction, saying that it was reasonable on the grounds that the student had left the safety of the castle. related to this news, the delacroix decree is still battering heavily against hogwarts. it is suspected that soon students will no longer be exempt from the decree. |

RADIO UPDATE: updates have been scarce over the past month for quietness has blanketed the wizarding world. the snatchers were hard at work over the holiday season but delacroix was sure to keep things quiet. this update is necessary, for something huge is boiling and most are unaware. hogwarts is still a safe house, amazingly, but the ministry is fully tainted. rumors are circulating the second order is brewing up a plan to cause complete havoc for the delacroix supporters. what could they possibly have in mind? |

RADIO UPDATE: a battle earlier this morning erupted between the order of the phoenix and ministry officials. sources indicate it began when the order of the phoenix began breaking supernaturals out of the camps. the battle began in the early hours of the morning. it is unknown what exactly happened, but ministry witnesses claim that there was a high keening scream, like that of a phoenix cry, but much more terrible. the fighting ceased, with both sides looking to see what had happened. the smoke cleared, and then there was a great groan from the order:
lying on the ground, dead, was the boy who lived.
it is unknown whose wand cast the spell that snuffed out his light, but it remains that harry potter is dead. almost immediately after seeing the body, the fighting disbanded and the order retreated. the entire wizarding world is shaken by this news, but the minister urges us not to forget why harry potter died: going against the law. for that, he says, he will double the reward for snatching supernatural creatures and he encourages everyone to help in rounding up any other supernaturals quickly and peaceably. in that way, perhaps the regrettable death of harry potter could have been avoided.
our best wishes go out to the potter family. stay tuned for funeral proceedings. |
