Default Magic!
The defining skill to seperate the muggles from the regular people.
We bring you a new hidden magic skill that can be learnt and used for nifty things like potions.


For the magic skill to work, you'll need to download and install the 'DA_Echo_Magicskill' file.
Once the magic skill is in place, these are the tools of your trade:





The Cauldron

The Cauldron teaches you the subtle science of potion-making, while gradually training your magic skill. Bottle fame, brew glory, stopper death.. your options become wider as you get better at understanding the liquids that creep through human veins, bewitching the mind, ensnaring the sim senses.



The Phoenix Spell Book

Source of jinxes, counterjinxes and a few handy tips on resisting unforgivable curses. This Spellbook trains magic skill.



The Deatheater Spell Book

Forgotten how to pronounce 'Avada Kedavra'? Or just need something really nasty to fling at your opponent? This book has all the cruel and heartless reading your heart desires, while training your magic skill.

Default Careers
Good day all witches, wizards, squibs and muggles. Today, Dumbledore's Army presents
The Harry Potter Careers

Even The Dark Lord needs a job!



Your average muggle sim is a cook, doctor, athlete, politician and possibly time traveller, but what about your most un-ordinary magical sims? Sims who want to break free from the restraints of the muggle world, sims who want to be different. What do they do? (am I going on a bit?) They follow the Harry Potter career path of course

The levels (most important)
House Elf
Gringotts Goblin
Care of Magical Creatures Teacher
Dragon Handler
Local Team Quidditch Player
National Quidditch Player
International Quidditch Star

but where do you go from there? Depending on what career you picked...

Good
Order of the Phoenix Member
Defence Against the Dark Arts Teacher
?????

Evil
Death Eater
Dark Arts Teacher
?????

Oh, cramberries- I've forgotten the last levels- looks like it's up to you to find 'em out

Clothing (as if witches and wizards would dress in muggle uniforms...)

For these careers, four sets of clothing are used-

Clothing (included)

The Wizard's Apprentice By Deb (By Emerald, SS2)
Professor Severus Snape (by Lady MoonShadow, SS2)
Evil Queen Mesh With Cape! (by JosephTheSim2k5, MTS2)
Waiting for the Dawn (by GrandDuchessEmerald, MTS2/SS2)

Clothing Meshes (required, not included)

Male Kimono (by mrolow, MTS2)
EvilQueenMesh (by JosephTheSim2k5, MTS2)

Rewards (for the hard working witch or wizard)

All hard working wizards deserve a reward- but what reward you get depends on what type of wizard you are. For the good and the justus, the beautiful phoenix book will become available for your use. For the evil and the downright devious, the more sinister death eater book will become yours to indulge in. (P.S. These rewards will NOT override the slacker career reward).

But that's not it. From level 8 onwards you need magical skill points to advance further in your wizarding career-
4 to get to level nine
8 to get to level ten

The points are available through these rewards books! So what are you waiting for? Get studying, young witches and wizards, get studying!


Technical stuff-

** The file DA_Echo_Magicskill is needed to make the career work.

** Two files are included within the download- a hacked version and an unhacked version. Both share the same guids, so you can only have one set in at a time. The unhacked version is for back-up if the magical skill point hacked one proves to have problems (see below)

** Adding new skill points to a career is a new thing, and this is the first set of careers to have them. Although they've been tested, problems may still crop up- please report any errors, and use the unhacked careers as a standby if the hacked one is found to have an error. Hopefully this shouldn't happen *fingers crossed *

And that's it Enjoy!

Default Objects
Recolours and new meshed wizarding essentials. Need that special Dark artifact? That personal item your character can't live without? Find it here.




The Pensieve

A mystical, shallow bowl with slowly swirling liquid that emits a silvery light. When your sims touch it, the pensieve takes them back to relive memories. It becomes easier spot patterns and links that way.





Haunted Painting

The Fresco Phasmatis (L. Eucharagmae) or Haunted Painting looks like a normal painting during the day. At night, however, its occupants become restless. Haunted Paintings are known to be very shy, so don't expect too much movement while sims are in the room.





Weasley Clock

This handy device tells you where your family or housemates are, and in which state.

I'd like to get in quick and say a little something to all the DA members- It's been a pleasure to work with such skilled and magical people (pardon the rather weak pun), producing stuff that I never would have dreamt possible. It's taken some time, with lots of niggly details to sort out, but at last it's complete- I hope that you all enjoy it

If you're not part of the solution, you're part of the precipitate

Echo figured out how to use a memory token for it.

Please don't PM me with questions. Post them in the appropriate thread.
