SPOILER!!: Professor S Quote:

"You would hope so, but some people have no common sense. But yes a curse and if they actually try invoking it..well it will backfire on them immediately"
Kenaz was a good one same with Nauthiz. Though he was surprised no one has said the extremely obvious one. He hoped since it was November that most even some first years would know some Runes. So far so good. Wunjo, good choice. Kenaz again. Dagaz, Eihwaz and then a number. Well that is surprising. Nothing wrong with that. Just was not expecting someone to want a number. Then a rune charm with Fehu and Gebo together. Very Nice. He nodded to all the answers until he heard one answer. Fair enough if you dont want a tattoo. Though before he could say anything she answered. So that was that. Inguz.
If you don't know the meanings of most runes then well it was a good idea to wait on a tattoo and at least learn one. For class maybe and not even for a tattoo. Still waiting and Kenaz again. Probably should have expected fire to be popular. Ansuz was a new one. But it was Mister Lewis's second question that he would actually have to answer.
"Ansuz is a fine one. But its mostly for helping with making wise decisions. which help with leadership and success. And no. Nothing that easy. Sorry to say"
Thurisaz was a interesting one as well. And Wunjo again. And another serious question.
"It's definitely not as easy as any other tattoo. The chances of it going wrong are high and increase depending on how complicated you make the tattoo. Example is The Helm of Awe and or Terror" Viktor pointed at what he had on the board. "You try invoking that incorrectly and you will suffer and even maybe be cursed. Sorry for answering your second question first and as for your first one. It would take a lot of magic. But you mostly pick and choose what aspects of the rune you want. Since as you said it would take a lot of magic to have all the properties of a single rune. Say you have an Kenaz tattoo. It could offer you some insight. But there will be a price. Same with any rune. There is always a price"
Still excellent question Prefect Bronwyn. Tiwaz and then Othala. Well no one even mentioned the one he was hoping someone would since it was in the Aegishjalmur. Well now time to say what The Helm of Awe was and for everyone's answers.
"Good answers everyone. Even the one's who didn't speak. I'm shocked that none of you said Algiz. Rune of Protection. Oh well. Onto what i have on the board. Aegishjalmur or know as The Helm of Awe and or Terror. It is one of the most powerful symbols in Norse Myths and one of the key runes in it is Algiz. Since you do want protection when you are running into battle. It was meant to inspire awe and fear. In the Fáfnismál, which is one of the poems in the Poetic Edda, which is a collection of Old Norse anonymous poems,the havoc-wreaking dragon Fafnir attributes much of his apparent invincibility to his use of the Helm of Awe. Okay that enough history about that. Now onto curses. Since well one way to hold a curse onto someone is through Tattoos. Ask Professor Hirsch i'm sure he would love to tell you more. Can anyone guess why this was the most spectacular way of cursing an enemy in Old Norse times? "
And a flick of his wand and just like magic a new picture was on his board
 OOC: I'll be moving on in around 24 hours Whoah suddenly it got intese. Not just because curses and tattoos (which is still super cool to him) but now there looks to be an image of a decapitated horse's head on a stake.
Not cool that part, because Equine aficionado here hello, but far be it for him to dismiss anything just because a beloved equine lost its head.
Ok there was a question, but the Curly Top was stuck on what the Professor said before that. So he's gotta question of his own "Professor? You said we 'hold a curse onto someone through Tattoos...' like how does that go? We actually tattoo the curse onto them? How do you keep them still long enough to tattoo the proper Rune onto them?"
