(getting this from a how it should have ended video I saw on youtube so this is probably a stupid idea) But in the video it ended with Snape walking up from behind Voldermort in the last movie and shooting him in the head before he could go off the bridge with Harry, and it raised a good point. Why have Wizards never used other forms of fighting in the modern age? Or even enchanted weapons to be on par with wands. Godrick Gryffindor had a sword, so what if they actually had extra curricular activities at Howarts relating to non-magic forms of fighting (being as if you were attacked in the Muggle world it would be wise to not use your wand or magic) or even enchanting items and weapons. Sorry, probably a foolish idea, but I had noting else to do in this time
I've seen that video. But I think the reason that they don't utilize other forms of fighting is because a) They are so stuck in their ways and b) Because magic is good enough for them. I am open to having the extra curricular, but for the sake of this RP, I would say that magic will obviously be the predominant way to fight.
Ofcourse, but admit it, the sensible person would be like-
"Hmm, magic wand that breaks easy? Colt M-nineteen-eleven...?" picks up Colt instead.
But imagine if you could enchant weapons? That would be pretty cool and be interesting if my next suggestion is not too outlandish
What if a section of the British government/military or both found out about wizards and saw them as a threat thus sparking a war between the muggles and wizards. It would be an interesting concept. As you would have ages old magic versus the nontechnical advancements of the military.
I don't know, just watched transformers and how they were like "Oh hey, let's just destroy every transformer there is." and it made me think about what would happen if that kind of event took place in Harry Potter between the wizards and muggles. But of course that would probably be too far out there to get anyone to go along with.
