A quick glance at her watch and Medea wandered back towards the stands. The spider that was sitting upon her shoulder scurried down until the little 'taps' and 'clinks' of metal upon stone signaled it had reached the floor. She waited until most of the student's attention were up where she was before speaking. "If you feel comfortable with your shield charms, or just don't want to continue..." Mmhmm, she glanced around the room to a few people. "You may start partnering up for you duels. Someone from your own year or close to it please. Before you begin though, there's a few rules I want you to follow."

"When starting, remember to bow to your opponent before turning and taking five steps in the opposite direction. It's not hard. You won't kill your back doing so..." Just do it! "Also, I'll be giving you guys almost free range on what spells you can use or what you know, BUT, anything aimed to physically harm your opponent and you may find yourself in detention faster than you can blink. No jelly-brain or finger-removing jinxes, knee reversal hexes, conjunctivitis curses... I'm quite certain you all have the common sense to know which spells to avoid. IF you are feeling uncertain however, you may come up here, and I'll give you a list of spells only to use. Alright?"

Medea paused for a moment before continuing. "You may use either of the shield charms you've learned today as well as Protego. There will be no physical contact between opponents, spells only. You may not aid in another's duel, and with that in mind, do try to keep an eye on just where you are. You don't want to be in the crossfire of another duel. So, please, spread out as much you can. If you have any questions, do not hesitate to ask, or if you are having trouble finding a partner, come up to the front and I'll help you find one. Off you go."


OOC: Just for emphasis, do try to keep to your character's skill level; that goes for both spell knowledge and use, as well as dueling skills. Injuries may occur during duels, but please, nothing so serious where they have to be sent to St. Mungo's. A few bruises, maybe a cut, a rare broken bone perhaps, but do not go overboard. Remember, there could possibly be consequences due to particularly harmful spells being used. The lesson will end sometime in about 24-28 hours. Feel free to PM/VM me if there are any questions.
