Truebridge listened to the answers and nodded. "Yes while the unforgiveable curses indeed fit that criteria, they are almost the easy answer to give. I'd like for you to all think a little harder than that. Indeed most of the unforgiveables are far easier to cast than one might think, even if the effects they have are very serious and far reaching." He wrote the given answers up

"Just a note, those above the solid line, I do not ever wish to see cast by any of you or hear of it within the school grounds, that goes for any serious or dark curses you may come across and I have no doubt that many of you know one or two, even if you are unable to cast them yourselves."

He had added... a few... one that he himself had once cast as a student and lived to regret. Luckily for him he had not been expelled, merely punished severely by Valon Kazimeriz. Yes. Lucky.

"Of course there are a myriad more and plenty that fit between these two lists, but it is useful to think about the difficulty of a spell and be aware of your personal abilities and limitations in order to know how to challenge yourself and as a result, increase your skill level over all."

He gestured at the targets.

"So naturally, aside from my encouraging you to assess your existing knowledge so that you may better yourselves, there is more to it than simply knowing a spell or knowing of a spell and being able to cast a spell in a classroom environment. You need to be able to control the strength and the distance of your cast and of course, when your target is moving, you need to be able to anticipate where and how it is moving. So now we will discuss spell execution and I would like a few volunteers to stand up here on the dueling platform with me, the rest of you can watch and we shall discuss what you see when there are things to be seen." Truebridge stood himself and waited for volunteers to join him.

ooc: anyone who wishes to, just go ahead and post joining him, no need to wait until I acknowledge you, once I have a few I'll post again explaining what we are doing. If you don't wish to have your character volunteer, you won't be penalised for it, they are more than welcome to watch and learn by watching.
