Welcome to your first year at Hogwarts! This is more of just a fun game than really any sort of family-creator (unless you wanted to do one for each family member from another HP CAF, like the one I made here: Harry Potter: A Detailed CAF BNG {Part One}
I’ll explain the rules as we go along, but for now know that you will need a dice-rolling app/website that includes multiple dice-rolling options! I’ve also tried to make this game more friendly for people who are non-binary, please let me know if you have any other suggestions!
