` AZKABAN FORTRESS The Department of Magical Law Enforcement maintains a prison on a tiny island far out in the cold north of the North Sea. It's called Azkaban Fortress or simply Azkaban. Azkaban is a terrible place. The prisoners there are guarded by Dementors, horrible creatures who have been described as "souless fiends." They feed on positive emotions, which means that after spending much time in the prison, the prisoners lose all hope and all good feelings and thoughts. They prisoners are forced to relive the darkest, most horrible memories of their lives. Some go mad, others simply despair and die. |

` THE LEAKY CAULDRON Built by Daisy Dodderidge around 1500 to serve as a gateway between the non-wizarding world and Diagon Alley, the Leaky Cauldron has remained a famous and popular place for five hundred years. Located not in Diagon Alley proper but on the outside, on Charing Cross Road in the heart of London. The tavern sees quite a lot of traffic and is frequently crowded. |

` BROCKDALE BRIDGE Brockdale Bridge had always been a magical landscape, even long before Hogwarts had been created, or its founders were even born. Brockdale Bridge is built over a large river just outside of London where whenever cars drive over it, to any Wizard or Witch's eyes, it appears it's being plunged into the water and disappears forever. The charm on the bridge is said to have been cast by a couple of young male wizards to prank some girls. |

` QUEERDITCH MARSH Eight hundred years ago, a group of witches and wizards used an damp stretch of nettle-filled ground called Queerditch Marsh as a place to play a new game they had invented. This game involved broomsticks and a "big leather ball." Soon they added a couple of heavy rocks, bewitched to try to knock players off their brooms. The whole business was observed by a witch named Gertie Keddle who wrote about what she saw, in badly spelled Saxon, in her diary. |
