These are the special ability and ancestry spots available to members. Spots are available on a first come, first serve basis, although canons always get an applicable spot even if they're full. We also ask you limit yourself to one special ability per character and try not to have more than one or two characters with special abilities.
Every 50 members, we will increase the number of spots available.
Part-Veela (½ or less)
A person descended from the beautiful but temperamental Veela. They can be male or female and, when calm, are typically beautiful; witches and wizards alike find them enthralling. However, their charm wears off when they get upset. They become repulsive, not physically like true Veela, but in their aura, and people don't like to be around them.

Part-Vampire (½ or less)
Vampires are former witches and wizards afflicted with a curse which makes them loose all magical ability and suffer from a thirst for blood. They are reclusive, but very occasionally they intermarry with the magical community. The results are part vampire descendants; pale, thin people with limited magical ability and an affinity for blood that they can usually control. Part vampires are forbidden to feed from humans and can subsist off both human food and animal blood.

Part Giant (½ or less)
Someone with a giant in their family tree. It manifests as enormous size, although it becomes less and less pronounced with each generation. Some part-giants are extremely broad, with great strength, and others are just very tall. Their magical ability is about as strong as regular wizards.

Werewolf
Werewolves are the victims of a curse, passed only through the bite of another werewolf. Every full moon, they transform into half-wolves and become violent and uncontrollable. When they are in their human form, they have golden eyes but no other special abilities or markers.

Metamorphmagus
Metamorphmagi are able to change some of their features to resemble any person or animal. No one can learn to be a Metamorphmagus, they must inherit it from an ancestor. Metamorphmagi are not able to fully transform into an animal and it is extremely difficult and exhausting for them to maintain a full-body transformation.

Parseltongue
Parseltongue is the rare ability to communicate with snakes and other snakelike creatures. It is a rare ability and most Parseltongues are Slytherins.
