| | CoMC Lesson 1 :: Nifflers
Professor Morgan was in a glorious mood this morning as she exited her office door. With a flourish of her wand, she levitated a number of large wire cages, each of which contained 2 or 3 fluffy black creatures with long snouts and flat paws.
With the cages leading the way, Iliana headed down to the paddock. She carefully deposited the cages on the ground and then withdrew a small black pouch from her robes. With a flick of her wand, its contents were instantly deposited beneath the soil. Professor Morgan had instructed the class not to wear anything shiny; she sincerely hoped that they took heed of her advice, otherwise they were going to be in for an extremely interesting lesson.
There was still some time to before the class was due to start so the professor reached down and unlatched the cage closest to her, pulling out one of the black fluffy creatures and cradling it in her arms. Then she leaned up against the paddock fence and began stroking its head while she waited for the first of her students to arrive.
OOC: Class will start shortly, please make sure that you read the CoMC Classroom Rules before attending. I've updated them today in regards to this terms' lessons. |

Hogwarts RPG Name: Bramble "Bram" Wyatt Lennox Graduated | ThunderPUFF | Whoodley | MRD&LKD | Graphics Queen | Tristalen | Mrs. A | Hunny Bun Simone watched as her groups niffler came back one more time with a very pretty ring. Not the coins...but that was alright. She scooped him up, and placed the ring in the bag that Jake was holding. "Good job cutie." She whispered as she nuzzled the cute little niffler.
Then out of the corner of her eye, she noticed Cela lying in the grass, and her partner, a familiar looking boy, standing over her. She was going to go talk to them, but decided it would be best not too. Though she did notice, something wasnt right about Cela. She raised her right eyebrow in confusion, but still stayed away. 'I think I will keep an eye on her.' She thought to herself.
Something was definately up.

Christine was proud of her little niffler, he was working really hard. Christine shook around her little bag as her niffler continued to find items for her. It had already found 10 galleons, a bottle cap, a button, and what looked to be a key ring. Just as Christine put everything back in the bag, her niffler came up to her with something else. Christine didn't know what it was, it looked like some kind of broach, so she just put it in her bag.

Dani sat looking at the dirt in front of her. She hadn't grabbed a niffler yet. The one she had tried to catch had dove under the dirt. Bummer. She started humming to herself as she watched the others around her. She looked at the dirt, was that a nose sticking out? Her niffler had come to her with something shiny in its mouth, it looked like a key. As he dropped it in her lap she saw that that was exactly what it was. Raising her hand as the niffler dove back into the dirt she asked, "Professor have you lost any keys lately?"

Daniel was so fond of watching the others gather galleons and other stuff that he had forget he had his own niffler at hand. He laughed at himself and set the little darling down and whispered, "Go on dear. Find me some galleons."
The niffler ran and Daniel followed, Sniff, Sniff, Sniff
After a moment, the niffler have something for Daniel. He grabbed the object and examined it. It was a whistle. "Good job, honey."
Just as he was to say something the niffler once again sniffed something from the ground. Daniel quickly ran towards it and found a galleon. "Very good job." he then patted the niffler's back and put the galleon and the whistle in his pocket.
Daniel then let the niffler do its thing. After a few moments they got, 2 more galleons, a ball bearing, a small metal medallion and a rusty old key.
Daniel patted the back of the niffler and smiled, "Very nice work." |

*Gabben looked over the fur ball and smiled. It was cute, in an odd way.*
"Alright little guy... go!"
*The Niffler moved super fast into the dirt. Gabben thought it was really cool how the fur ball would move in the dirt like it was water. After a only 3 minutes it came out of the dirt and dropped a few gold coins at his feet.*
"Wicked!"

She looked around and spotted a niffler that was about to dig. "I found one," she told Jack, smiling. She let go of his hand and stepped closer to the niffler. Now, they just had to wait for it to find some treasure. Come on, Mr. Niffler. Make us rich! "Erm, ok," Jack muttered, watching with horror as she grabbed his hand and dragged him over to the Nifflers. The one that she picked out was actually kind of cute--he was fluffier than most of them, he seemed, and desperate to get searching, apparently.
"Are we supposed to like--cheer it on or something?" he asked. "Come on Niffler! Come on! You can do it! Find us something!" he said, pumping his fist in the air and everything in an effort to psych up their little furball.
The niffler stared at him for a moment before finally setting off, nose close to the ground as it searched for something pretty and shiny and sparkly. Finally, it stopped and started digging in a small patch of grass nearby, going further and further into the dirt before it finally emerged with a tiny butterbeer cap. It scurried over to Reese and dropped in her lap before looking up at her, obviously expecting praise of some sort for his find.

Reese sat down on the ground and looked up at Jack when he asked if they were suppose to cheer on the niffler. Er, were they? She looked back at the niffler and smiled. She was about to cheer him on when Jack started doing it. "Yeah, come on little guy," she called out, clapping lightly, making sure not to make THAT much noise, so the niffler wouldn't get freak out.
She watched as the niffler set off, sniffing the ground as her went. Then, the niffler stopped and started to dig. Yes, he found something! When the niffler started running back to her and Jack with the treasure, she couldn't held but to clap again. The niffler walked over to her and sat the butterbeer cap on her lap. She picked it up and examined it. Well, it wasn't money, but it was still treasure, right?
"Good job," she told the niffler, petting it. That reminded her that they still needed to name their niffler. It couldn't stay nameless forever. That just wouldn't be right. She looked at the niffler again and then looked at the butterbeer cap. She glanced up at Jack. "Hey, Jack, that planet's name is... Sat- urn? Saturn? Yeah, Saturn," she said, actually talking to herself more than talking to Jack. She looked back down at the niffler and smiled. "You're name is going to be Saturn," she told it.
After telling the niffler it's name, she pulled the little bag that Professor Morgan gave them and slipped the butterbeer cap into the bag. "Now, off you go Saturn. Go find more treasure," she said, shooing the niffler off. The niffler turned around and started sniffing the ground again. It stopped walking near a little dirt patch and just stood their for a second until it started digging. Moment later, the niffler was running back towards them carrying a ring in it's mouth. A ring?! Uhh- well, someone lost a ring. It could have been a past student who use to attend Hogwarts. Who knew? The niffler headed over to Jack, dropping the ring at his feet.

Jack chuckled and smiled when she named the niffler Saturn. He wondered if she was doing it on purpose--was it just cause he was there, and she KNEW he liked astronomy? Perhaps. Maybe just his prescene put space into her brain. Who knew.
"Wow--thanks little guy," Jack said, picking up the ring and dropping it in their bag. So their niffler had found a ring and a butterbeer cap--that was all fine and dandy, but they weren't getting any COINS! "Good job buddy," he said, patting him on the head as the niffler ran off again. Maybe a bit more positive reinforcement was what the niffler needed to get some REAL treasure.
Sure enough, seconds after he ran off, Saturn started digging again, making a rather big hole this time. Finally, he came back to Reese and Jack and dropped a coin at Reese's feet, and a coin at Jack's. WOOOO! Finally, some success! "Great job Saturn!" he cried in delight. His obvious excitement was easily picked up by the keen little niffler, who started running in excited circles around Reese's feet.

Okay, their niffler was doing a really good job. She watched as Saturn started digging, again. "Come on Saturn!" She called out, hoping that would cheer the little fellow up. She smiled when the niffler started heading back towards her and Jack, carrying something in it's mouth. She couldn't make out what he found until Saturn dropped a coin near her foot and own near Jack's foot. "Wonderful job," she told the niffler and watched as it ran around her feet. Hehe.
She picked up her coin and handed it to Jack, since he was the one holding the bag now. When she turned back to Saturn, the little niffler had already set off searching for more treasure. She watched closely as Saturn sniffed around a bit, then started to dig. Yay! The niffler stopped digging, then headed back over to her and Jack. Saturn dropped 3 coins between her and Jack.
Saturn must be on a roll since it ran off after dropping the coins between her and Jack. It went back to the area it found the coins and started digging again. It didn't take long until Saturn was heading back to her and Jack, carrying more coins in it's mouth. It stopped when it reached them, dropped the coins on the ground. "Good job," she told Saturn, smiling. She petted the little niffler and looked up at Jack. "We sure did pick a good little niffler, didn't we?" She added.

She was hopping they didnt ahve a moranic niffler, when suddenly it flew into a bush, and came out with a beautiful pendant. "Oh. Thats just gorgeous! Good job!" She patted the little guy on the head. "Now go find us something else."
The little niffler scurried about again in the same fashion, but then ran in the other direction. "I wonder what hes found us?" She said to both boys, while following the little guy. "Hello Miss Morgan, and Mr. Upstead" George greeted them politely "You're both Huffies?" he asked with a small smile. Find. Talk. Be nice. Walk away happily. He recited in his head, feeling proud that he'd accomplished the first two, maybe three. He followed the niffler, keeping his distance from it in case it decided it didn't like him. Seeing it drop a pendant in Simone's hand, he smiled and followed the niffler as it ran off. Quote:

"Go find something else, and quickly."
Nifflers were fun. Hesitating to move near it, he smiled as Simone giggled "Um... yeah... good.. err.. niffler" George mumbled as he watched Simone put the coins in the pouch. It's safer when they're outta sight. He nodded at his thoughts and then watched the niffler run off again. Quote:

OOC: I am leaving this thread open for the students (my lovely 'other timezone' students) that have not yet had an opportunity to RP their charrie with a niffler. If you have already done so, please refrain from doing so during this time. I will be back in a few hours. Please hold off on posting until I return. And no more chatting just to chat or I will take points. Hearing the professor call over to them and tell them to bring their nifflers back if they've finished, George looked down at their niffler and wondered if he could find anymore treasure. Quote:

Something was definately up. Smiling as Simone picked up the niffler, he looked around, hoping some other niffler wasn't going to go crazy and jump on him. Still keeping his distance from the niffler, he crossed his arms and stood still. It was the best way to not get noticed.

Trixie usually worked better on her own. Her little Niffler going completly wacko and started sniffing her pocket. Oh no! she just realised she had a few galleons on her. She made a mental note: Do not bring money to classes! She quickly took out the money from her pocket and threw it on the ground and the Niffler went wild over them. Later the Niffler- Trixie had decided to call it Gambit- scooted off to look for coins.

"N'awwww!" Well done dude." Miles liked to call animals 'dude', and he continued to ruffle the top of the niffler's head. He wanted to name it so badly! "You can tell he's a little tired. How cute!" - he was such a girl. Vanessa smiled at Miles, as he said sorry. He really wanted to be cute now" Don't worry." She spoke quietly, as she handed him the pouch with their coins in. "Donn't lose it." She giggled, then they wouldn't have any!
When Professor Morgan talked to them again, Vanessa listened and pouted again. Aww. She wanted to keep the Niffler. "We..better give him back to Professor Morgan." She sighed sadly, as she stood up and approached her favorutie teacher.
"Caan't I keep him?" She giggled, grinning at her professor, as she stroked the Nifflers head. She was totally joking though!

Yes! Now its was time for the fun part. A treasure hunt with a Niffler! She was so excited that she could hardly stay still. She had to name this little guy. She wasn't sure if they already had names, though, didn't matter. "I'm going to call you Jelly." Allie said, to the Niffler. "Now lets get started!"
She watched as Jelly started sniffing around, then came up to her and started to jump up. She quickly realized that she had forgot to take off her A neclace. Woops. Okay, she needed to get Jelly away from her Necklace and onto finding the coins. She looked around and saw Cela playing with her Niffler with her locket, and it gave her an idea. She took it off and dangled it in Jelly's face. "Look. Shiny. Want it? Go get it!" she said, and just like she would with her dog at home she pretended to throw it, and saw Jelly run after nothing. But by the time he realized it wasn't there, he had caught on to another thing, and had started digging. Wow, it had actually worked. She wasn't really expecting it too.
She pocketed her necklace then ran after the Niffler. "Hey what you find?" she said, as Jelly looked up with a couple of coins in his mouth. "Good boy!" she said, encouragingly as she took them from him. "Now go find more!" She watched him sniff around some more, and thought of all the treasure they could find. Allie and Jelly the best treasure hunters in the whole wide world! She smiled at the thought, even though she knew it was unlikely they would even find enough to fill one treasure chest, or even half. But still...This was gonna be so much fun!

Gambit had so far gotten Trixie 7 galleons, a ring, a tiny pearl and a shoe buckle. "Good boy," said Trixie patting its little head. Then her niffler shuffled of searching for more things.

Then out of the corner of her eye, she noticed Cela lying in the grass, and her partner, a familiar looking boy, standing over her. She was going to go talk to them, but decided it would be best not too. Though she did notice, something wasnt right about Cela. She raised her right eyebrow in confusion, but still stayed away. 'I think I will keep an eye on her.' She thought to herself.
Something was definately up. Quote:

Seeing it drop a pendant in Simone's hand, he smiled and followed the niffler as it ran off.
Hesitating to move near it, he smiled as Simone giggled "Um... yeah... good.. err.. niffler" George mumbled as he watched Simone put the coins in the pouch. It's safer when they're outta sight. He nodded at his thoughts and then watched the niffler run off again.
Hearing the professor call over to them and tell them to bring their nifflers back if they've finished, George looked down at their niffler and wondered if he could find anymore treasure.
Smiling as Simone picked up the niffler, he looked around, hoping some other niffler wasn't going to go crazy and jump on him. Still keeping his distance from the niffler, he crossed his arms and stood still. It was the best way to not get noticed. Jake pulled a face. "Call me Jake, I hate being called Mr Upstead... it's what teachers call me when I'm in trouble, which is often," he added rather bitterly. Noticing that Simone picked up their niffler, and seeing that many members of the class had stopped, Jake tried his luck with Professor Morgan. "Can I have my earring back?" he asked, smiling as sweetly as possible in his vain attempt. He wanted that thing baaaaack.

She jumped as the niffler nuzzled her hand and she turned to look at it, noting that it did indeed have a few galleons in it's little mouth. She gently extracted the galleons and pocketed them, taking off her locket and trailing it across the nifflers nose and watching it get all excited and chase after it.
Cela liked nifflers, but meh. Iliana looked over at Celandine and frowned. What was this?! Her brightest student, daydreaming in class? Or was it worse. Was something wrong? Since she wasn't causing a disturbance, Iliana decided just to watch. But watching she would do. Keeping an eye on Cela would now be a priority. Quote:

Fifteen coins were found by that tremendous and excellent creature. "May I hold it?" He asked Karma, as he held out his hand to reach it. "Yes Professor, could we come to the nursery and help you take care of them?" Emiliano asked, since he didn't do anything for CoMC project that last year. The professor smiled brightly. "Why yes Emiliano. I would love your assistance." She said wishing more students would offer their free time. Quote:

The niffler sniffed his hand and nuzzled it a little bit, seemingly proud of his work today. And he should have been, he served them well. Jude grabbed the little guy and scooped him up into a loving embrace for a little while, petting the guy's head before he started towards Professor Morgan.
"Where d'ya wan' meh ta pu' 'im?" he asked upon approaching the professor. He held him out ever so slightly so she could take him if she wanted, but the niffler was still getting plenty of support to not be freaked out, just in case Jude had to take him somewhere else. "Just hand him to me, Jude." She said, reaching out for the squirmy thing. She giggled as the niffler tried to struggle and quickly placed him in a cage. "Thank you." Quote:
Originally Posted by krazypenguin Dani sat looking at the dirt in front of her. She hadn't grabbed a niffler yet. The one she had tried to catch had dove under the dirt. Bummer. She started humming to herself as she watched the others around her. She looked at the dirt, was that a nose sticking out? Her niffler had come to her with something shiny in its mouth, it looked like a key. As he dropped it in her lap she saw that that was exactly what it was. Raising her hand as the niffler dove back into the dirt she asked, "Professor have you lost any keys lately?" “Well I don’t think so but let me see that.” She said, bending over to get a better look. "That looks like it might belong to a trunk or chest of some kind. Maybe you'd better hold onto it." Professor Morgan said. "Keep up the good work Dani. You're doing great." Quote:
Originally Posted by RaRaRachieee Vanessa smiled at Miles, as he said sorry. He really wanted to be cute now" Don't worry." She spoke quietly, as she handed him the pouch with their coins in. "Donn't lose it." She giggled, then they wouldn't have any!
When Professor Morgan talked to them again, Vanessa listened and pouted again. Aww. She wanted to keep the Niffler. "We..better give him back to Professor Morgan." She sighed sadly, as she stood up and approached her favorutie teacher.
"Caan't I keep him?" She giggled, grinning at her professor, as she stroked the Nifflers head. She was totally joking though! The professor laughed. "Well Vanessa, if I do recall, you have a Kneazle to care for in the Sanctuary. But you can certainly come to visit the nifflers anytime you like." Quote:

"Young lady, what is the meaning of this?" She asked with her hand on her hip and a perturbed look on her face. "Class started ages ago, how dare you arrive in such a fashion. Ten points from Gryffindor and you are dismissed. I will not repeat my entire class for your benefit." Quote:

OOC: Okay guys I am going to leave this thread open for a few more hours. When I come back we'll start to wrap it up. Once again, no chatting unless its class related with your partner/niffler.

It was so heavy! A job well done. Miles knelt down to be at the height of the niffler. "N'aaaw. I don't want to give him back, he's so darn cute!" He laughed, tickling behind the niffler's ears. "Do we have to give him back now?" |

"Meet Gambit!" she said pushing him into Tiffany's hand. Trixie had realised how adorable it is. Wow...if only she could have it forever and ever. She could see the Niffler sniffing Tiffany and she giggled. "I guess it likes you too," she pointed out.

She couldn't make out what he found until Saturn dropped a coin near her foot and own near Jack's foot. "Wonderful job," she told the niffler and watched as it ran around her feet. Hehe.
She picked up her coin and handed it to Jack, since he was the one holding the bag now. When she turned back to Saturn, the little niffler had already set off searching for more treasure. She watched closely as Saturn sniffed around a bit, then started to dig. Yay! The niffler stopped digging, then headed back over to her and Jack. Saturn dropped 3 coins between her and Jack.
Saturn must be on a roll since it ran off after dropping the coins between her and Jack. It went back to the area it found the coins and started digging again. It didn't take long until Saturn was heading back to her and Jack, carrying more coins in it's mouth. It stopped when it reached them, dropped the coins on the ground. "Good job," she told Saturn, smiling. She petted the little niffler and looked up at Jack. "We sure did pick a good little niffler, didn't we?" She added. Jack grinned and bent down, counting the coins that their niffler had picked up. "We have 7 coins, which makes 9 things total when you count in the butterbeer cap and the ring," he told Reese, as Saturn bounced around his feet happily.
"Go on, get us some more!" Jack said, cheering on Saturn as the niffler ran off again. This time, it took him a little longer than before to find something--he even disappeared for a few moments, but after being unsuccessful at...wherever he had gone, he came back and fnally found a nice little dirt patch to dig in. Finally, he darted back to them quickly, dropping two things at their feet again.
This time, he had found a coin, and a silver bobby pin. Well, it WAS shiny, and it counted towards their items, right?
