4INTRODUCTION
The wizarding world had never faced an enemy so sinister before Lord Voldemort. Tom
Marvolo Riddle was a malevolent, villainous wizard who took the lives of countless heroic wizards
and witches and nearly infiltrated the Ministry of Magic, considered the most powerful Dark Wizard
of all time. Splitting his soul in eight Horcruxes, he attempted to take over the wizarding world by
taking the life of Harry James Potter on 31 October 1981. Failing to do so as the Unforgivable Curse
was rebounded onto himself, he was ripped from his physical form, eventually returning in June 1995.
His Horcruxes were destroyed and he was killed at the hands of the Chosen One, Harry Potter, on 2
May 1998.
Less than three months ago, it has come to the attention of the wizarding world that a witch
acting as a caregiver for Amos Diggory was none other than Delphi Riddle, the daughter of Lord
Voldemort and a notable Death Eater, Bellatrix Lestrange. Though both were killed in the Second
Wizarding War the child they bore has proven to be a considerable threat to us all. Unbeknownst to
the wizarding world prior to six days ago, Voldemort’s bloodline lived on through another child. On
3 December 2020, a new Dark Wizard emerged, making himself known as Anatole Riddle, the twin
brother of Delphi Riddle. He made a daring attempt to break out his sister from Azkaban Prison, and
as of 4 December 2020, they both have gone into hiding.
STATEMENT OF THE ISSUE
The English magical society faces two threats, as the two children of Voldemort threaten the
peace of our society and may provoke another wizarding war. The Minister for Magic, Hermione
Granger, declared a National State of Emergency on 5 December 2020, when it was found that Delphi
Riddle had formed a new group of Death Eaters, publicly revealing themselves as “The Augurey”. As
of 7 December 2020, the Augurey members, led by the twin Riddles, have hunted and brutally
murdered 9 non-pureblood witches and wizards across the United Kingdom. Hogwarts students
Albus Potter, Scorpius Malfoy, Rose Weasley and James Potter join forces with fellow students and
5the living members of both Dumbledore’s Army and The Order to defeat Delphi and Anatole. They
have collectively named themselves The Accord, as they are tasked with restoring the unity and
harmony of the entire Wizarding World. They gathered on 8 December 2020 at the British Ministry
of Magic headquarters in Whitehall, England, to assess and work together to resolve the nation’s
state of distress and chaos.
HISTORY
THE FIRST WIZARDING WAR
The first Wizarding War was a significant battle and conflict amongst wizards, with beginnings
from as early as the 1940s and 1970s, and ending in 1981. This marked the rise of the mightiest Dark
Wizard in all of wizarding history, Lord Voldemort. This major conflict stemmed from the blood
superiority, where pure-bloods discriminated against muggle-borns. Lord Voldemort gathered
followers called Death Eaters who supported his cause of wanting to rid the wizarding world of
muggle-borns. Voldemort and his followers reigned terror throughout the world, anybody who
stood against them ended up dead or missing. The Order of the Phoenix was formed by Albus
Dumbledore to fight against evil, which plays a crucial role in the defeat of Voldemort.
The war ended with Voldemort’s defeat at the hands of the infant Harry Potter on October
31st 1981, hence Harry being known for being “the boy who lived.” After more than 10 years of peace,
Voldemort returned to power and waged a violent campaign in both wizarding and muggle
communities. Voldemort sought revenge for his demise, and wanted to conquer the wizarding world.
The Order of the Phoenix was regrouped and Albus Dumbledore discovered the secret to killing
Voldemort, Horcruxes. A Horcrux was an object in which a Dark wizard or witch has hidden a
fragment of his or her soul in order to become immortal. Voldemort had made 7 horcruxes and
accidentally made Harry Potter the 8th horcrux, who is prophesied to be “the Chosen One” and the
only person who could defeat Voldemort.

THE SECOND WIZARDING WAR
Following the first Wizarding War, Voldemort once again rose to power in June 1995. Prior
to this, his fractured soul was discovered by Quirinus Quirrell, who helped him infiltrate Hogwarts
School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in the school year starting in 1991. Harry Potter, the Chosen One,
started his education at Hogwarts during this school year and consequently defeated both Quirrell
and Voldemort, defending the Philosopher’s Stone from the Dark Wizard in the process. Throughout
Harry Potter’s time at Hogwarts, Voldemort made several attempts to infiltrate the school and kill
the one wizard who had the power to destroy him. This included significant events such as the second
opening of the Chamber of Secrets, where one of Voldemort’s Horcruxes was destroyed by Harry
Potter with a Basilisk fang. In 1994, it was revealed that Peter Pettigrew, a wizard believed to have
been killed at the hands of his schoolmate Sirius Black, was an Anigamus. Though his disguise as a
pet grey rat was discovered by Harry Potter, Remus Lupin and other acquaintances, he evaded
capture and was able to return to his master, helping Voldemort gain bodily form once more,
predicted by Professor Trelawney, of the Hogwarts divination department.
"The Dark Lord lies alone and friendless, abandoned by his followers. His servant has been
chained these twelve years. Tonight, before midnight... the servant will break free and set out to rejoin
7his master. The Dark Lord will rise again with his servant's aid, greater and more terrible than ever he
was. Tonight... before midnight... the servant... will set out... to rejoin... his master."
—Professor Trelawney
The Triwizard Tournament, hosted by Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry during
the Chosen One’s fourth year, ended with a duel between Voldemort and Harry Potter, marking the
former’s return to power. From 1995 to 1996, there were casualties and conflicts that resulted in the
weakening of the Ministry of Magic and the formation of Dumbledore’s Army. This led to the Battle
of the Department of Mysteries, where Hogwarts students Harry Potter, Hermione Granger, Ron
Weasley, Neville Longbottom, Luna Lovegood and Ginny Weasley tried to rescue Sirius Black in the
Ministry of Magic building. They were met with Lucius Malfoy, who fought alongside eleven fellow
Death Eaters against the students. The members of the D.A. were joined by Kingsley Shacklebolt,
Nymphadora Tonks, Remus Lupin, and Alastor Moody of the Order. Sirius Black was killed when his
cousin Bellatrix Lestrange hit him with a blasting spell, causing him to fall into the Veil, an enigmatic
structure in the Department of Mysteries. It is speculated that the Veil is a manifestation of the barrier
between the land of the living and the land of the dead, where going through the Veil would result
in guaranteed death. Open war started in 1996, and in two years, Voldemort had formed alliances
with the Giants, Dementors and Werewolves, bringing his new force to Hogwarts and causing the
Battle of the Astronomy Tower.
"The lightning-struck tower. Calamity. Disaster. Coming nearer all the time..." — Professor
Trelawney
In June 1997, the Wizarding War suffered the significant loss of Albus Dumbledore, who was
killed by Severus Snape during the Battle of the Astronomy Tower. Death Eaters left the school
following Dumbledore’s death, as their goal for infiltrating the school has been accomplished. The
Battle of the Seven Potters involved the death of Alastor Moody, as Harry Potter and his Polyjuice-d
escorts were ambushed by over two dozen Death Eaters as they travelled from 4 Privet Drive to the
Burrow. Later that year, the Ministry fell under the control of Lord Voldemort; the Minister at the
time, Rugus Scrimegeour, was murdered. Many Ministry officials worked for Voldemort under the
8influence of the Imperius curse, though Harry Potter, Hermione Granger, and Ron Weasley were able
to sneak into the Ministry to save several Muggle-born wizards and reclaim Salazar Slytherin’s Locket.
The trio was able to uncover, obtain and destroy all of Voldemort’s presumed Horcruxes before the
Battle of Hogwarts. The Second Wizarding War ended with this infamous battle, in which all the
Horcruxes were destroyed, including Harry Potter, who entered limbo and came back to life to kill
his life-long enemy once and for all.
Notable wizards and witches lost during the Second Wizarding War:
Cedric Diggory
Sirius Black
Albus Dumbledore
Alastor Moody
Bathilda Bagshot
Ted Tonks
Nymphadora Tonks
Remus Lupin
Severus Snape
Fred Weasley
1998 - PRESENT
Delphi Riddle, born in secret at Malfoy Manor on 4 January 1998, was orphaned with both
Bellatrix Lestrange and Lord Voldemort were killed in the Battle of Hogwarts. Euphemia Rowle took
her in, but raised her only because she was offered monetary compensation. In November 2019,
Rodolphus Lestrange was released from Azkaban and told Delphi about her true heritage and the
prophecy she was thought to fulfil. By the following year, Delphi had disguised herself as Amos
Diggory’s niece who took care of him at St Oswald’s Home for Old Witches and Wizards. Having
tricked Albus Potter and Scorpius Malfoy, the three began a harrowing journey of time-travel and
mystery in September of 2020. They infiltrated the Ministry of Magic and left with a Time-Turner, a
magical object that allows the user to go back at any point in time. The first attempt to save Cedric
Diggory’s life involving the altercation of past events, resulted in two alternative realities. The first
9was experienced by both Albus and Scorpius, and the second only lived through by the young
Malfoy. Scorpius saw a world where the Order and Dumbledore’s Army lost the Battle of Hogwarts,
and make valiant efforts to restore the correct timeline. Once it was restored, the two boys told
Delphi that the Time-Turned had to be destroyed, as it was much too dangerous to try and change
the past. However, Delphi revealed her true nature at this time and killed Craig Bowker Jr in front of
Albus and Scorpius. The two were taken back in time against their will to the Triwizard Tournament,
and were unbound by Cedric Diggory himself, who thought it was part of the Task he was competing
in. Albus and Scorpius were transported to 30 October 1981, the day before Lily Evans and James
Potter were to be murdered by Voldemort. The Time-Turner destroyed, they realized that Delphi
had travelled here with the purpose of preventing her father from murdering Harry’s parents, as this
caused his destruction. In St Jerome’s Church, Albus and Scorpius, as well as their parents, Hermione
Granger-Weasley, and Ron Weasley - who had travelled to 1981 using another Time-Table upon
seeing a message from them - Delphi was overpowered and stopped before she could confront her
father. She was imprisoned in Azkaban with charges of first-degree murder and abuse of forbidden
relics.
Not much is known about Anatole Riddle. He was also born on the 4th of January in 1998, to
his mother Bellatrix and father Voldemort. Unlike his sister, he was put in care homes in the UK and
matured to become an extremely intelligent, manipulative boy. He did not attend Hogwarts, as no
one even knew he existed, and found his way around magic in his own way, getting help from the
Dark wizards and witches he encountered in France and Ireland. It is presumed that Rodolphus
Lestrange, once released, located him and explained to him the same prophecy he told Delphi - he
believed that one of the two was destined to fulfill it. Anatole, in shock about his parentage and the
fact that he had a twin sister, planned a break-in at Azkaban which later proved successful, as he met
his sister for the first time on the third of December and escaped with her that same evening.
10RELEVANT PAST ACTIONS
After the events that took place at both Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry as well
as Godric’s Hollow, Delphi Riddle was put under trial by the Wizengamot, the British wizarding
world’s high court of law and punishment. Those who testified include: Albus Severus Potter, Scorpius
Hyperion Malfoy, Harry Potter, Ron Weasley, and Draco Malfoy. Hermione Granger, current Minister
for Magic and the head of the Wizengamot, sentenced Riddle to Azkaban Prison for life as she was
found guilty on all charges. Delphi Riddle was effectively transferred to Azkaban on 17 September
2020.
Significant changes have been made to augment and better the security of Azkaban Prison.
As a fortress on an island in the middle of the North Sea, it is already quite isolated and difficult to
break into. Since the daughter of Voldemort was sentenced to Azkaban, more Aurors have been
added to guard the prison, with some assigned to Azkaban full-time, while the rest rotate with
fieldwork. Harry Potter, Head Auror, facilitated this increase in security of Azkaban, and has further
plans to better security via spellwork and magical jinxes.
Despite the increase in safeguards, Anatole Riddle freed his sister as well as 109 other convicts
from Azkaban the evening of 3 December 2020. Previous notable Azkaban escapees include:
Bartemius Crouch Jr. (1982), Bellatrix Lestrange (1996), Sirius Black (1993), Antonin Dolohov (1996),
Lucius Malfoy (1997), and Rodolphus Lestrange (2020). It was Rodolphus Lestrange that revealed to
Delphi her parentage, and eventually did the same to Anatole. The latter killed three Aurors on the
early December night, so both the Ministry and public are seeking immediate arrest and trial for his
actions.
11CHARACTER GUIDES
ALBUS SEVERUS POTTER
Albus Severus Potter is the half-blood son of Ginny Potter (nee Weasley) and the Chosen One, Harry James
Potter. Sorted into Slytherin upon his arrival at the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, Albus is
cunning, adaptable, and ambitious. He is the middle child of his immediate family, with elder brother James
Sirius Potter and younger sister Lily Luna Potter. On the 1st of September 2019, Albus and Scorpius Malfoy
made a dashing escape from the Hogwarts Express and they soon embarked on an adventure with Delphi
Riddle (who unbeknownst to him, had ulterior motives to use their stolen Time Turner to bring her father
Voldemort to power again). Albus Severus Potter witnessed the murder of Craig Bowker Jr., committed by the
daughter of the Dark Lord, and consequently was part of the Defeat of Delphi Riddle, that took place in Godric
Hollow in October 1981. He leads the Accord alongside his father and is determined to take down Delphi and
her brother Anatole at whatever cost.
SCORPIUS MALFOY
Scorpius Hyperion Malfoy is the pure-blood son of Astoria Malfoy (nee Greengrass) and Draco Malfoy. He
began his schooling at the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in September 2017, and was sorted
into the Slytherin house. Scorpius is a sharp-witted, brave, and kind individual. Scorpius was one of the six
wizards who testified against Delphi Riddle at her hearing with the Wizengamot. He is also the only person to
have experienced an alternate timeline where Voldemort defeated Harry Potter during the Second Wizarding
War. Along with his best friend Albus, he helped to defeat Delphi Riddle and restore the original timeline.
Scorpius is ready and willing to sacrifice anything to save his found family as they prepare to fight against two
of the darkest wizards he has ever come across in his entire life.
12ROSE GRANGER-WEASLEY
Rose Granger-Weasley is the eldest child born to Hermione Granger, the Minister for Magic, and Ron Weasley.
Since she has entered Hogwarts, she has proved herself to be an intelligent, bright student, with an exceptional
talent in Quidditch, for which she plays on the Gryffindor house team. Like her mother, she shares the same
competitive drive for academic excellence, placing her at the top of her class in the three years of school she
has completed thus far. Rose will stop at nothing to take down the Augurey, and make sure justice is served.
HARRY POTTER
Harry Potter, also known as “The Chosen One” is the Saviour of the second Wizarding War. He is the only child
of James and Lily Potter who both died during the first wizarding war, thus making him an orphan who was
forced to live with his Uncle and Aunt growing up. Voldemort spent most of the second wizarding war
determined to hunt him down due to the prophecy that “neither could live while the other survives” Harry
Potter was a Gryffindor at Hogwarts, he is extremely brave, loyal and selfless to those he loves. He is already
ready to put his friend’s needs and best interests before his own, and even sacrifices himself to Voldemort
multiple times. However, Harry does have a bit of an obsessive personality and is very head strong, he can lose
his temper and make impulsive decisions. One of his greatest strengths is his strong sense of self, proven when
he was able to thwart the Imperius curse. Along with talents of Defense Against the Dark Arts, he was able to
produce a corporeal patronus at the age of thirteen, which is an incredible feat. Harry is facing the current
situation with the same determination and resilience that has gotten him through the countless battles and
endeavours he has undergone in his youth and adulthood, and is confident that the Accord will take down the
Augurey.
13JAMES SIRIUS POTTER
James Sirius Potter is the eldest son of Harry and Ginny Potter (nee Weasley). He was named after Harry Potter’s
father and godfather. James Potter was sorted into the Gryffindor House to no one’s surprise. He resembles
his uncles Ron Weasley, Fred and George Weasley with his inherited sense of humour and love for mischief.
James Potter is appeared to be independent and confident with himself, with popularity amongst his fellow
classmates. He has a very strong connection with both his parents and enjoys teasing his siblings Albus and
Lily. James Potter is the current owner of the Marauder's Map and the Cloak of Invisibility. Though he is
mischievous and lighthearted with most things, James’ Gryffindor-inherent courage and bravery stands out as
he works alongside the other members of the Accord to take down Delphi and Anatole.
HERMIONE GRANGER
The current Minister Hermione Jean Granger is a Muggle-born who learnt about her magical nature and was
accepted into Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry at age 11. She was sorted into the Gryffindor House
and has proven time and time again of her brilliant academic mind as she excelled in all courses during her
years at Hogwart. She even went back to Hogwarts to continue her education after defeating Voldemort. Unlike
most wizards who solely depended on their magical ability, due to her background she often relied on logic
as well, saving Harry and Ron countless times during their escapades. Hermione Granger is compassionate,
always caring for her loved ones along with standing up for those in need. However, due to her opinionated,
interfering nature, she is sometimes known to be a bossy know-it-all, feeling a need to constantly prove herself.
Hermione Granger is an integral part of the Golden Trio. She marries Ron Weasley and has two children with
him. As the Minister of Magic, Hermione must listen to her fellow Accord members and try to find and defeat
Delphi and her brother, all the while taking into account the state of the British Wizarding World and the
wellbeing of all the wizards and witches in the UK.
14RON WEASLEY
Ronald Billius Weasley is a pure-blood wizard, the sixth and youngest son of Arthur and Molly Weasley and a
current co-owner of Weasley’s Wizard Wheezes with his brother George. He is married to Hermione Granger
and father of Rose and Hugo Granger-Weasley. He was sorted into Gryffindor House with his best friends Harry
and Hermione. Although not the brightest student, he is very loyal, strong and humorous, making light of the
darkest times. Ron never hesitated to put himself into dangerous situations along with his friends, even at the
age of 11 when he sacrificed himself for Harry’s sake. Ron Weasey is also marked by occasional jealousy and
insecurity rising from feeling overshadowed in his family. He is always willing to stand up for his friends and
family even when angry with them, constantly protecting Hermione when she faced prejudice. Ultimately, his
friends and family are the most important things to him and he will go to great lengths to protect them.
GINNY POTTER
Ginerva Molly Potter (nee Weasley) is the youngest sibling and only girl in the Weasley family. She attended
Hogwarts one year behind Harry, Ron and Hermione, and was placed in Gryffindor House. She is now a
professional Quidditch player, and has demonstrated exceptional flying skills since adolescence. Ginny Potter
is wife to Harry Potter and mother to James Sirius, Albus Severus and Lily Luna. Ginny is a forceful, independent
woman who was always confident in herself, she has an energetic lively personality, leading to her popularity
during her time at Hogwarts. Ginny is never afraid to stand up to anyone, friends and foes alike. Notably, she
was difficult to intimidate or frighten, being one of the few who could stand up against Harry during his
moments of rage and anger. Furthermore, she can be harsh towards those whom she disliked. Just like her
husband, she has exceptional defensive skills, especially with the spell “Reductor”, managing to bring down the
entire Department of Mysteries. Ginny is no stranger to confrontation, and will readily work with the Accord to
win the forthcoming war, protecting her family and loved ones as best she can.
15EDWARD “TEDDY” LUPIN

daughter of Bill and Fleur Weasley is his current girlfriend. Teddy Lupin is kind and considerate, valuing his
friendships above all else, and is especially grateful to those who take care of him. He inherited his mother’s

Louis Weasley. She is currently the romantic partner of Edward “Teddy” Lupin. Born on 2 May, 2001, she was

most significant events in the history of wizards and witches. Victoire is one-eighth Vella through her maternal
great-grandmother. She is very similar to her aunt Ginny Weasley, as they both fell in love with a war-orphaned
man, and are often described as ambitious, resourceful, and daring.
DRACO MALFOY
Born on the fifth of June in 1980, Draco Malfoy is the pure-blood son of Lucius and Narcissa Malfoy. Though
he was raised by a Death Eater and grew up with the ideal of blood purity at the front of his mind, he has
noticeably changed in adulthood. He has one child, Scorpius, with his late wife Astoria. Draco cares for his son
greatly, and has shown immense trust in Albus Potter, Scorpius’ best and only friend. He is quite civil and
tolerating, and is a very talent wizard. He is especially skilled in Occlumency, the magical art of blocking out
outside attempts to read one’s mind. He is also a very competent duelist, likely a skill inherited from his parents.
16NEVILLE LONGBOTTOM

protective of her siblings and cousins, and will do anything to shield them from danger.

Lorcan Scamander, born 9 November 2006, is one of the sons of Luna Lovegood and Rolf Scamander. Lorcan
is a thoughtful and studious individual. As a third-year student at Hogwarts, he still has much to learn about
magic and how to reach his full potential. However, he shows great skill in Transfiguration and Potions, and is
desperate to help the escalating situation with the two Riddles’ in any way possible.
LYSANDER SCAMANDER
Lysander Scamander is the twin brother of Lorcan Scamander. Lysander can be a perfectionist, often critical of
himself more so than others, but is also loyal and honest. He has shown consistent talent in Charms and an
