"Professor Kazimeriz - though we have since reconciled - is capable of evil. Hehe. I mean, who gives ear hair on the first day or school? Or turns their spy into a canary? ...Among other things. But I sure do like him either way. Suppose that doesn't make him DARK though... Never mind..." Then Plymouth went off into thoughts about associating with Dark Wizards and wondering if that made him one, too. He had hugged Kazi that one time...
Truebridge just turned to look at Plymouth and shook his head once.
If you can't say anything nice...

"Death eaters aren't as evil as Lord Voldemort or anything, but they count as Dark Wizards, don't they? Oh, and I remember my parents saying something about Gregory Crabbe, was it? Yeah, I think he was one of the students of Hogwarts in Harry Potter's time that used feindfyre. He wasn't very bright, no, but he was able to pull that spell off."
He held back another laugh, but he was serious about his answer.
"You are mixing up Vincent Crabbe and Gregory Goyle; their fathers were indeed Deatheaters and dark wizards, but do you think casting a dark spell automatically makes someone a dark wizard? I'll add them to the list but we'll discuss it further." Truebridge answered.

He was taught a lot about that subject seeing as most of his family came from most of them. He found himself raising his hand after thinking of one that no one else had said, "The Gaunt family."
"Is it fair, do you suppose, to make a generalisation about a whole family? Was every Gaunt automatically dark? I'll add this one to the list but once again it will be a discussion point." Truebridge told the Slytherin boy.

Ehh... Raising her hand, Livvy gave an answer. "Um. Would Circe count as one? I don't think that turning into a beast is particularly a delightful encounter. And Merwyn the Malicious... not too great of a person for inventing all those jinxes and hexes." What else? She thought so more for a few moments, searching for another famous dark wizard.
"Circe was an expert in transfiguration. Doing something distasteful doesn't nearly constitute performing dark magic. Otherwise everyone one of you who have thrown a hex or a jinx or a curse would be considered dark wizards and that is simply not the case."

"I think he owned the Elders Wand at some point." She added.
"Many of the owners of the Elder Wand could in fact be considered dark wizards."
Truebridge flicked his wand and a list appeared on the board.

So, again; do you think casting a dark spell automatically makes someone a dark wizard? Is it fair to make a generalisation about a whole family?" Ethan asked the class as a whole.
"And what exactly makes a dark wizard dark anyway?"
