Can fresh characters send mail
In the world of Harry Potter, fresh characters (i.e., those who have just been created) cannot send mail in the classical sense. The wizarding postal system, known as the Ministry of Magic's Department of Mysteries, relies on a network of owls, broomsticks, and other magical means to deliver mail and packages.
However, there are a few ways that fresh characters might be able to send mail:
- Owls: While owls are typically used for sending mail, it's possible that a fresh character could acquire an owl or borrow one from someone else to send a letter. This would require some knowledge of owl care and handling, as well as a bit of luck in finding an owl willing to carry their mail.
- Broomsticks: Another option might be to use a broomstick to deliver a letter or package. This would require some skill in flying and navigating, as well as a bit of luck in avoiding obstacles and finding the recipient's location.
- Magical messengers: In some cases, a fresh character might be able to enlist the services of a magical messenger, such as a centaur, a goblin, or a magical creature with the ability to carry messages. This would likely require some negotiation and payment, as well as a bit of trust in the messenger's abilities.
- Portkeys: Finally, a fresh character might be able to use a Portkey to send a letter or package to a specific location. This would require some knowledge of Portkey magic and the ability to create a stable connection between the sender and recipient.
Of course, these methods might not be as reliable or efficient as the traditional wizarding postal system, but they could be useful in a pinch for a fresh character looking to send mail.
