"Yes a boggart is considered a Dark Creature. Two points."

Not too tough, actually, as he answered "Ramoras! The three headed snakes!" Tavelon loved snakes. They were cool, despite the dark associations.
"Professor, are we going to be seeing any such creatures today, or just talking about them?" he asked. Interactive was always fun.
"Ramora's are actually fish Tavelon and they are actually considered guardians of the sea. What you are thinking of are called Runespoor's and they are not Dark Creatures." Lawson gave the boy an encouraging smile. "We'' just be discussing them today."

"Yes you are correct Kaytone. Two points for Hufflepuff. Although the lines are a little blurry in this description for werewolves and we will discuss that later."

And then she heard it. That word. A scowl marred her face as she glanced around to find out who had said it, and then she saw the little Hufflepuff. Biting her tongue, she forced herself to look back toward the professor, trying to forget it had ever been mentioned.
"Correct Adrienne. Two points for Ravenclaw."

He quickly rose his hand as the first thing he could think of was "A Basilisk." . Under the effect of the story of Prof. Lupa much? Obviously.
"I will give you two points for your answer Evan. There is also debate on this description as well and we shall cover that."

It was a not a big deal though since Josh scooted closer to her. As he did do Rose whispered that she needed to talk to him ''Sure.'' he whispered back thinking that it was probably about her other personality inside.
Then when the professor took his attention by asking a question he jumped on his feet to give a quick answer ''Sir, sir, sir! Basilisk sir!''. He knew why he remembered this creature. Rose had a basilisk fang wand core but he did not care anyway, even thinking it might be fun.
"I will award you two points for your answer and we will discuss more on this."

As Nikki sat by herself, she daydreamed a bit, and wondered if the Porfessor would bring any dark creatures to class.
As the Professor came in, he asked if anyone knew any Dark Creatures. Nikki raised her hand. "Vampires, sir." She paled a bit at the thought of the Professor bringing one of THOSE into a class full of kids.
"Very good. Two points for Slytherin."

Dark creatures... There were lots of them, and most had been said by the other students already. But why not give it a go anyway.
"Sir," Miranda raised her hand, "The Inferi are one of these dark creatures..."
"Excellent Miranda and yes they are. Two points for Hufflepuff."

Yes, werewolves were dangerous, but they were nto exactly 'Dark Creatures'.
Right?
"Correct Eva. Two points."

Hmm... she pondered for a while, trying to think of one that no one else had come up with it. No one ever wants to come up with an answer that someone else also came up with. That was just poopy and uncool. TOTALLY... uncool.
She raised her hand and gave an answer. "Red Caps are dark creatures, professor." Speaking of uncool... getting attacked by a red cap.
"Another excellent answer. Two points for Ravenclaw."

"Would a Acromantula be considered a dark creature professor?" she said, shivering at the word. 'Spiders...pfft...'
"No they are not considered Dark Creatures and we will explain the reason for that in a moment."

"Yes they can be very dangerous Destiny but they are not Dark."

"Okay some of you are getting confused between dangerous magical creatures and dark creatures. Who can tell me what the difference is between a Dark Creature and a dangerous one?"
