Room of Requirement

So I've been thinking about the "chance" and "community chest" cards which will all be determined  by random number generators (using Math.Random): 


  • Start your adventure again. You may collect 200 galleons
  • The Goblins perform an error while processing your account as they withdrew 100 galleons from yours instead of Voldemort's. To compensate,  Gringotts pays you 50 galleons
  • Your father falls ill, and you must visit the Court Physician, Gaius. Under normal circumstances, he wouldn't charge you, but this time, he asks for gold. You must provide him with 50 galleons otherwise he'll tell the King that you are a sorceress/sorcerer. Do you give him 50 galleons or risk him exposing your secret?
  • Your friends are annoying you, and with a very random thought, you try to erase their memory. Your wand backfires and you have no recollection of who you are, what you're doing, or how you got to where you were. Go to St. Mungos, now.
  • Get out of St. Mungo's Free Card. 
  • Happy happy birthday! Collect 20 galleons from each player and enjoy!
  • You and all your friends decide to spend money on the Chinese Theatre. Yes, that same one that John and his date (plus Sherlock). However, Sherlock only has 3 free tickets, no more, no less. All other players must pay 50 galleons. You, the person who picked up this card must chip in 10 galleons.
  • When Uther married a troll whom was so greedy for money, he charged too much from your Gringotts account. He compensates you for a 40 galleons refund. 
  • Morgana has declared war on Camelot. She is using you to get through to King Arthur. You, can use magic and stop her (but then everyone else will know that you have magic); or you can let her do her worst. What do you do?
    • If you choose to use magic and stop her, you receive 40 galleons per house and 115 galleons per hotel. 
    • If you choose to let her do her worst, you must pay 40 galleons per house and 115 galleons per hotel because Morgana has increased taxes on your land.
  • Advance to Ministry of Magic
  • Advance to the nearest transportation spot (Taxi, Tardis, Wardrobe or Hogwarts Express). If it is unowned, you can buy this from the bank. If it is owned, roll the dice a second time and pay the owner 10 times the sum of the die. 
  • Advance to Bagshot Row. If you pass go, collect $200. 
  • Go backwards seven spaces. 
  • Advance to Hogwarts. If it is unowned, you may buy this from the bank. If it is owned, pay the owner double the rent. 
Of course there are some monopoly things that aren't in the classic version, but it sounds super fun ;D
