While Remy held Miss Toussaint in place, Hirsch ripped out the last of the vine and stood up again. He would come back to check on her but right now, he needed to move on and give the others something to do as well. Stop the risk of something like this happening.

Though, given what the activity was......

Hirsch shook the thought away, placed his thumb and index finger between his lips and let out a loud whistle. "Okay, everyone, that was an excellent attempt but there's no use learning a spell without putting it into some kind of practice." He didn't see the point in only getting the hang of the spell without some element of a situation added in there. "So, I want you all to take your things and place them off to one side of the room so no one ends up tripping over bags." Safety and all that. And he would wait right here for them to do just that before explaining the rest.

Once a minute or two had passed and the space looked a little clearer, the Defence Professor raised his wand and gave it a flick. At once, the shield surrounding the box gave way and the box let out another wobble. Another flick and a shield appeared close to Abey, shielding him from the other section of the class.

"Today, I want you all to try this spell out on a bunch of creatures that are..... well. They're not dark creatures but they won't be scared to bite, scratch and cause havoc. It is therefore crucial that you make them stay rooted to the spot unless you want to leave here with a bite." Pause. "And don't worry about hurting them, either." He had his reasons for that, one being that they're used to greenery and vines and another being that size was no guarantee of power. "I want you to try and use the Ensnarement Charm but if you need to defend yourself or someone else, you're welcome to use the Shield Charms or any other defensive spell."

"So without further ado, let's meet your match!" At this, he flicked his wand a third time at the box, making it spring open. "I'm going to give you....." He glanced down at his watch. "A little over twenty minutes."

"Ready? GO!"

Now, back to Miss Toussaint. "Are you okay? Would you rather sit out for this?"

OOC: Wheeeeee! MAIN ACTIVITY TIME!

So firstly, if you're still working on the mini activity, feel free to continue but make sure to label the top of your post with 'mini activity' for my reference.

For those going with the main activity, you are to use the Ensnarement Charm to try and stop the creatures in their tracks. Here are some rules:

- Be warned, they will bite, scratch, claw and try to topple your charries over
- How do I know this? Because I'll be RPing them
- You're welcome to work together or separately
- You're also welcome to use any other defensive spells you see fit to save yourself/someone else. I'm not fussy
- Try to be mindful of each other's charries and play nicely <3

Here are the spell details, in case:

Quote:

Ensnarement Charm
A spell that causes vines to grow from an area/object of greenery

Incantation: Irretio (ee-REH-tee-oh)
Wand movement: clockwise circular motion over area you want the vines to grow out of, flick upwards towards the creature/direction you want the spell to go
Light: n/a
Difficulty: fifth year spell
Other: need to maintain a high level of concentration; more concentration = stronger vines

I'm going to give you until 11:59pm GMT+1 on the 21st of September to make as many posts as you want. If you have any questions, I'm just a nudge away <3

Have fun!
