MINISTRY APPLICATIONS
R U L E S
1. Only players who already have characters in the game may apply for ministry spots.
2. One Ministry character per player.
3. Ministry characters can be corrupt or they can be for great justice.
4. We'll decide how many ministry members qualify, so if you see 4 apps, you can still submit your own.
5. Do NOT apply for these positions with a character who is not suited for the role. Also do not apply for these spots just to give another character a Ministry BFF. It's cool if they know them a bit, but please, no BFF's.
6. Mods may contact in terms of certain plots that need to be carried out.
7. Ministry characters are able to punish students for misbehaving. They can only takes points if they do anything evilish. For points taking, they have the same restrictions as TA's.

GLaDOS 2/3?
The solution came when a worker from the Misuse of Muggle Artifacts Office suggested incorporating a new Muggle artifact they had recently acquired. According to their research, it was referred to as a Genetic Lifeform and Disk Operating System (GLaDOS.) GLaDOS was capable of interacting with life forms and recording the data that was relayed to her. This data would be permanently stored and, if it contained vital information, could then be used to find and prosecute those who were guilty in a more sufficient manner.
It was decided then. A permanent transfiguration spell was applied to make GLaDOS appear in the form of a young Ministry worker (yet they couldn’t seem to fix that monotone voice of hers.) She was given the Ministry's archives to scan so as to learn of the identity of each and every witch and wizard that their world encompassed. She was even taught a few basic spells, including one that would allow her to constantly keep herself at full power.
The last two Dark Wizard attacks had involved the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. The Ministry decided this was where GLaDOS' first assignment as their new interrogator would be.
What do they do at the Ministry?: Mainly used for file storage/retrieval and interrogation purposes. i Has been used in numerous trials in the Wizengamot to provide exact testimony against presumed Dark Wizards. Each testimony she’s given has lead to the guilty party’s sentencing to Azkaban prison.
Sample Interaction Post in First Person:
Here at the Ministry of Magic, your safety and happiness are our primary concerns. Please do not be alarmed by our presence here. We only wish to help you.
The Routine Scheduled Questioning Sessions I have designed for each of you are not optional. However, regular attendance is appreciated. Failure to be present at one, or more of these sessions will only result in your inevitable downfall.
Please do not lie during any of your questioning, as it will only raise suspicion. Yet, be aware that if you had initially intended to lie and suddenly decide to tell the truth, that will raise even more suspicion, as all the answers you will give have already been predetermined.
I look forward to seeing you at your Routine Scheduled Questioning Session in 3...2...1...
GLaDOS 3/3
Right now, years 1-3 were either out on the front lawn attending their mandatory flying lessons with Professor Gai or were in the dungeon for their Potions class. Forth year Hufflepuffs and Ravenclaws were currently in Astronomy. Seventh years were spread between Ancient Runes and Dueling. And the Fifth and Sixth years could all be found on a group Herbology field trip near the edge of the Forbidden Forest.
Yes, this was the perfect time to have a word with some of the couple thousand portraits that hung on the walls around Hogwarts. Though GLaDOS was capable of retaining any information she received, be it audio, visual or textual, it was still limited to the direct area she was in. This unnerved her a bit. How was she supposed to observe these subjects if she couldn’t see all of them at all times?
It hadn’t taken GLaDOS long to think of a solution, though. During her first few days at the school, she confronted every portrait, instructing them to keep their ears and eyes open for useful information. She would be coming back for reports.
Now, with so many eyes all over the school, GLaDOS could always be watching.
Why should this character be accepted for a ministry position?: GLaDOS is extremely persistent when it comes to gathering information. Though she may lie…a lot, it’s only to get those she’s talking to, to stop lying and tell the truth. Also, the Ministry’s continuous relay of the message that Dark Wizards are what should be sought out and destroyed, has caused GLaDOS to develop her own twisted logic: In order for no Dark Wizards to be in existence, no wizards or Muggles can be in existence. So in essence, the Ministry’s plan is slowly backfiring on them and they don’t even know it.
