Kazimeriz nodded once, his expression suddenly becoming old, even haunted. "Indeed I have. I have seen things that no witch or wizard should ever experience... and done things that I hope none of you ever will." He cleared his mind and considered her question. "A witch or wizard with a weak constitution should not try such a spell if it can be avoided. Without the intent, the spell is likely to falter or fail, anyway."

Professor Kazimeriz glanced at the chalkboard and made some changes, eliminating some of the hexes and jinxes that students had suggested until only a few of each remained:



"For the lab portion of this class, we will only be focusing on the hexes and jinxes listed on the board."

Professor Kazimeriz waved his wand, conjuring four baskets, one in each of the Hogwarts house colors. They began gliding slowly down the aisles between the rows of desks.

"As the basket which corresponds to your house colors comes by your desk, please take a badge from it and affix it on your robes. These are your DADA lab hall passes and must be worn for the duration of the next exercise."

He watched as the baskets slowly cruised back and forth. "Before you affix the badge to your robes, understand this: I expect my students to behave appropriately and in accordance with the rules at all times. Wearing this badge means that you will accept and adhere to the rules of the exercise that is to follow." he looked around the classroom.



ooc: Please use the badge as your avvie for the next 24-48 hours if you intend to participate in this lab. Consider it your 'get out of detention free (within reason)' card. RP yourselves putting on your badges and I'll explain more. It'll be fun; play along!
