New Legacy Challenge! Harry Potter - Updated for ROM
I was super excited when I came across the original Harry Potter / Hogwarts legacy challenge from Chessiechuu (< link to original). I figured I could adapt it to ROM so imagine my delight when I saw that it had already been updated by Ceinwynie.Â
So without further ado, I share with you the ROM Harry Potter Challenge from Ceinwynie. I am starting this legacy tonight and plan to post the story as I go.Â

¡       You are only supposed to have 2 kids, one with your muggle partner and the other with the stranger, but itâs not guaranteed that you will have a spellcaster, so you can keep trying for a baby until one of them is a witch/wizard and this one should be the heir
