Greetings campers and welcome to Camp Horsefeathers! I am your head counselor, and it's my pleasure to welcome you to the most magical summer camp in the world. At Camp Horsefeathers, we believe that every child is special, and we're here to help you unlock your full potential.
Does your special child have a magical knack for getting into trouble? Let us have them for the summer and we'll hand you back a brilliant student ready to obey your every word.
Does junior always end up where he shouldn't? At Horsefeathers, they can press those boundaries safely, and discover why some places are forbidden!
Camp life won't be easy, but it can be greatly rewarding - we here at Horsefeathers take great pride in unlocking the raw potential inside of each child. They'll face challenges and obstacles like you've never seen before. But don't worry, we'll be here to guide them every step of the way.

Using the "Kids on Brooms" RPG system, you'll create your own character and explore the world of magic with your fellow campers. You'll make new friends, learn new spells, and uncover the secrets of Camp Arcanum. But be warned - not everything is as it seems. There may be some darker forces at work here, and you'll need to use all of your magical skills to overcome them. Are you up for the challenge?
Newbies and veterans welcome, the most important thing is a love of the genre and a joy of interactive, collaborative storytelling.
As you can see from the little advert above - Horsefeathers is a summer sleep-away camp for kids, but it's also a feeder into a magical school for those found to be actually gifted in magic. What happens to the kids without the gift? Who knows? We might find out all sorts of terrible dark things that go on in this chipper little camp for troublesome kids.
CATS (Concept, Aim, Tone, and Subject Matter)
Concept: A group of magical kids try to survive a magical summer camp experience.
Aim: Deal with kid / teen drama, engage with magical foes and friends, have a laugh along the way.
Tone - Dark-Ominous-Addams-Family-Values-with-Magic Vibes. "What if punishment/behavior correction summer camps were actually there to sort out who had magic or not and shunt the survivors into a secret magical academy?"
Subject Matter: Teen / Child angst and drama, dangerous situations for kids and teens, magical dangers, death.
We'll go over the lines and veils for the group once we have some players locked in to have the discussion!
So pack your bags, grab your broomsticks, and get ready for the summer adventure of a lifetime. I can't wait to see you all at Camp Arcanum!

Waiting List:
Interested in joining? Reply below with a simple character concept that includes the character's age (Oldest would be early teens youngest being 7 or 8). Remember that the campers aren't full blown wizards or witches yet, instead they are kids that have an inkling of magical ability that have caused their parents enough concern or worry to send them to this camp. We'll do some world-building and actual character creation finishing as a part of our game thread together!
Feel free to ask questions below as well!

It’s past 1 am here so if its okay I”’ll put up a character concept in the morning,.. going to sleep on it.
Worst of all is she doesn’t like television or computers. She is therefore just bored a lot of the time, and when Judy is bored she finds ways of amusing herself that aren’t usually malicious…but usually cause quite a commotion in one way or another. Enough so that her parents (who have 3 other kids to look after) are at the end of the metaphorical ropes and looking for something- anything!- to give them a break this summer,..
So ideally you can get a few others and I can follow along and enjoy
