[img align=left]https://i.imgur.com/zvepmOb.png?1[/img]Good evening Quidditch fans! I'm Carlisle Caswell, the Flying Instructor here. Welcome to Hogwarts for the Summer Quidditch Tournament! I trust you're all enjoying your summers. As avid fans of Greece, India, Japan, and Russia, I'm hoping you know a little bit about the nations that your teams represent.

This week's theme is International Attire.

Your challenge this week is to create a human avatar of your student OC dressed in the fashion of a witch or wizard from your team's country (either Greece, India, Japan, or Russia).

Some rules for this challenge: 1.) Include a background setting that represents your team's country. 2.) Include wearables that reflect your country's fashion. 3.) Include wearables that reflect that the outfit is for a magical person.

Each member may only submit one avatar, and each avatar to successfully adhere to the challenge rules and theme shall be awarded 10 Tournament Points!

This challenge will end Monday, August 5th at 11:59PM.

{{Question: Do we have school colors for the schools or something or are we supposed to sort of make this up? And how do I know the fashion of the country, should I look up current fashions for that location or something? Sorry if these questions are random and not very smart; or maybe I just don't know where the answer is but maybe it was already said?}}

This challenge is about countries, not schools. Schools don’t matter this mini-term, unlike during the Triwizard Tournament. c:

For your other questions, it’s up to personal interpretation as long as you follow the rules and theme.

{{Well if I were representing Russia, for example, it is not a specific school in Russia just an entire country? I guess I am just a wee bit confused by that. So I am a hogwarts student just really a fan of a specific team from the country (Russia for example). Correct? So my team would have colors, right? And a team mascot, sort of like how they do in the movies -- right? }}

Right, you’re a fan of the Russian National Team. Think Ireland and Bulgaria playing in the Quidditch World Cup in Goblet of Fire.

Later challenges may pertain to your team colors, mascots, etc, but this one just pertains to the nation your team represents. 😊

I'm waiting for Bennet to assign me a team. I just did 3 HAs since I don't know yet which one to post... Could I post the ones I can't "use" once the challenge is over or would it be ok to post all 3 but having just one counting? (I was really bored and just went on, sorry ^^")

You may post all of them. will be on later tonight. She’ll assign you to a team and only one HA will count. c:

{{OOOHHH I see now what you mean and how it works. Thank you for answering my questions. Sorry if they seemed like I should know! }}

@ poppet Thank you! ^^

Team India!

I was happy to answer them! That’s what we’re here for, so feel free to ask away.

You’re welcome!

Here is Aria, ready for Team Russia celebration! Complete in her warm furs and witches cape. She's just coming in from a summer storm that brought loads of rain and even a dusting of snow in the high mountains far away up north.

Okay, I have a question! I haven't posted my OC to the Forum yet since it's closed right now. Is it okay to use the HA if my OC I made anyway? Or should I wait until my OC HA is approved?

Outfit Not Found Lily Rose--Russia

Lily is dressed in her best attempt at Russian attire for a cold day, complete with the magical coat and cape which give off smoke to keep her warm.

Ezekiel loves te elegant yet very light clothing - the heat in India is intense, and for a supporter to do a good job at cheering for his team he needs to fresh!

Outfit Not Found

Gwen went with a more traditional Japanese look. Although Japan is know for being a little crazy with their fashion, she isn't too out there and wouldn't feel comfortable. She did go with a shorter kimono though because it is a little hot in a longer one and she didn't want to be uncomfortable if it's hot outside.

The cranes are enchanted to fly around her - her little magic trick. (I hope this satisfies rule - I didn't want to add a wand since her hands are hidden)

ibook - Gwenyfar - Japan

I hope I did this right! Here's Karina in her Russian attire with Orion, who accompanies her everywhere he can! She rarely goes anywhere without him.
