Default 2 - Ingredients



Hecate sat in her chair with a few ingredients on her desk.

A bottle of powdered Dragon Horn:



and a box with other ingredients:



She simply waited for the students to come in.

This would be fun...

... for her anyway.



ooc: This class will stay open for at least 72 hours (probably more.) Also thanks to Antarctica! for taking the picture of the Potions Classroom for me at the WWoHP, and to Ameh for makin it into a pretty graphic!

Ariella raised her hand. "What about a polyjuice potion? I'm not quite sure if we have boomslangs on our grounds, but most of the other ingredients needed might be in our reach," she said. Oh no. Was that right? Duh.......of course not!!!!!!! Boomslangs are from Africa.....not from Hogwarts.

Good?! Fallon was pretty much in shock for being praised in Potions class. It was a strange occurrence and it kind of made her happy. And a little bit more confident in the subject itself.

Fallon listened to other people suggest potions. She really didn't know many...so she decided to keep her mouth shut and not press her luck with this one.

Sierra studied the list of ingredients and then flipped through the potions journal she'd started keeping last school year. She kept most of her notes from class in there. She ran her finger along the list of ingredients, comparing them to the ones on the board.

Then she raised her hand. "The jobberknoll feathers, lovage, scurvy grass, mandrake root, and flobberworm mucus were all used in the..." She paused. What in the name of Merlin was the pronunciation of that potion again? She lowered her hand and looked from her notes to Professor Lafay then back again. "...the Shaharazalm Potion you taught us last school year," she answered.

Roderigo, who was looking through his bag for his parchment and quill, looked up after a few minutes had passed. Placing his stationary on the table next to his brass scales, he leaned forward slightly. He placed the thumb and middle finger of his left hand on his temples as he tried to remember a certain potions ingredient. He thought of Moondew, but he could not remember if that could be found on the Hogwarts Grounds, and he was hesitant in remembering which potion it was used for. After a few moments, however, he figured he might as well say something than nothing at all. Sighing, he raised his hand into the air.
"Professor, I believe you can find Moondew in the Forbidden Forest. It is an ingredient found in the Wiggenweld Potion as well as Draught of Living Death, I think."

Kurumi's train of thought continued as Professor Lafay asked her next question and her eyes scanned the ingredients on the board again. "Using eagle owl feathers, bat eyes, cat whiskers, finely chopped hellebore, and peppermint one could make the Optics Draft. It enhances the drinker's vision, especially in dark places or at night. owl eyes and cat whiskers are also easily attainable on the Hogwarts grounds."

Raven Think of all, almost all potion is from grounds from roots to leaves, but as usual, as he always do, he can't name a few, beside all he think is already told, better be quiet, Mr. Perevell

Raven is confuse again, he difinitely can't remember a potion ingredient unless he got the direction of the book, now what he can say, nothing as Raven is waiting for his time... he just watching his co-student and trying not to interpere with brilliant ideas.

Gavina looked over the list, her mind working. She drowned out the sounds of her classmates answering, wanting to come up with a solution herself. Finally, she raised her hand.

"I think, Professor, if you boiled the Dittany and the Belladonna together and then added crushed Nettles you could make a Bunion Cream."

She screwed up her nose at the thought.

"These are the ingredients you all mentioned we could take from the grounds. Now I want you to think. If I had these ingredients in my stores now. Available for use. What potions could you make?"

ooc: Be creative. These don't have to be cannon potions.



Luckily, Roderigo had managed to write down all of the ingredients the students had mentioned, including his own. Using his Eagle Feather quill, he began drawing arrows and circles point to and from different ingredients, trying to organize them to a potion he could remember.
"Asphodel and Dittany. . ." he muttered to himself as he scribbled furiously. He raised his hand slowly as he tried to formulate his response. But then he put it back down. He crossed off a few things on his parchment and began scribbling again. After a few moments, he grinned at his handiwork and his hand shot into the air.
"Professor," he said, smiling. "If you were to mix Dittany with Snake Fangs, Hellebore, and stewed Mandrake, you could make a powerful reviving potion, couldn't you?" He was almost sure he was correct, but Potions was not one of Roderigo's best fortes.

Okay so Nika got lucky for remembering the hellebore thing. But after being lucky once it wasn't happening again. She had no idea what potion they could make especially with all of these random ingredients. So she read them over a few times trying to come up with her own potion of sorts... Maybe if she got lucky it would actually be a real potion. "I bet if we mix all of the ingredients together it would make one nasty killing potion or something..." She said with a shrug. Hey it could work?

Janice wasn't sure if her answer was right, but she had to give it a try. She raised her hand, and answered.
"How 'bout the Mandrake Solution? We do 'have mandrakes, right? And the Bezoar. All we have to do is force it down someone's throat, and he or she will be cured, is it?"
She thought for a while, then added.
"And the shrivelling potion. We could use the daisy roots, caterpillars, and the leeches..."

Salina squirmed under Professor Lafay's intense gaze. She could sense it and she had always hated people staring at her.

Looking up from her notes, she raised her hand and answered. "Belladonna boiled in a vial of mother's tears can create one of the most potent calming potions." It was a lesser known recipe, simple as it was. Maybe because noone bothers to collect a mother's tears...

Uhh, Helena didn't quite like this whole... guessing thing.

"We can use bezoars and flobberworm mucus for a simple antidote, for common poisons," she said with her hand raised. That was the only potion that ran through her mind at the moment.

"Now, if it's a serious physical injury, maybe using ingredients from the Befuddlement Draught or the Draught of the Living Death such as Valerian roots or lovage could help turn the draught into an anaesthetic as well."
"Indeed, good." She said.

It's because because people demand too much of it's horns.

Next question.

Jonathan carefully recalled the ingredients that were called out. "Aconite" he said "is known by it's other names as wolfsbane and monkshood" that he is sure of. He heard his father said that once "Aconite is a common ingredient for Wolfsbane potion" obviously. "That potion can be able to ease or reduce symptoms of" what was the animal or creature again? Jonathan thought... "... Lycanthropy or werewolf"

Ohhh he should also think of something creative and create his own potion... Hmmmm... He looked at his parchment and tried recalling which ingredient belonged to which potion...
"Yes, wolfsbane potion is a complex one to make... but we do have most of the ingredients on the grounds." She said.

From what she could see on the list and what she could remember... "You could probably make some sort of calming potion." Probably not THE calming potion, but something similar. Hmm, like tea.
"Yes, good." She replied.

Her eyes narrowed at the boy. "Five points for cheek. Talk about that again and your house will hate you."

"You could make the Confounding Concoction, professor," Ryden said as she eyed the list of ingredients. It was the first thing that came to her mind that contained all of the ingredients. But why were there no ingredients in the storeroom again? Something about a fire?

She'd have to ask Koala Boy sometime.
"You could indeed." She said

Of course, it wouldn't be as good as it had to be because certain ingredients were missing, but it would still work to a certain level. "Daisy roots, snake fang powder, nettles, asphodel, and bezoars, and caterpillar cocoons are common ingredients in the potion." The ingredients necessary to brew it weren't rare, but the brewing process was extremely difficult and only potion experts could achieve the perfect result. Everything else worked as a mere energy booster, which didn't last for very long.
"Very good, Master Uronen..." She said nodding.

Whoa, that was a long list. At mandrakes, he raised his hand. "Mandrake Restorative Draught, professor," he offered, definitely too lazy to check the rest of the list for a more creative potion.
"Yes, that is a good one." She told the girl.

Lost in his thoughts, he shook his head to clear away his distracting thoughts and raised his hand.

"Well dittany is used for healing, right? So you could make some sort of healing potion with that, I'm assuming," he explained.
"It is... and yes healing potions are made with commonly found ingredients." she told him.

"This isn't a specific potion, professor, but could Peppermint be used to mask the taste and or smell of another potion?" Her dad had always used peppermint tea to cover the taste of nasty healing potions.
"It can, Miss Black, but that doesn't answer my question." She said.

Carr closed her eyes to think hard about the question. "Uh, well, neither ingredient is really... necessary in most potions. They can be used as correctives. If you stir in beetle's eyes in the opposite direction as your last stir, it can offset problems caused if you accidentally stirred too many times. And... tubeworms sliced the right way can be used to counteract complications created by heating your potion on a setting that lower than you should have."

She opened her eyes, then, smiling. That's right, isn't it?
"Yes, but that doesn't answer the question I asked." She said.

She screwed up her nose at the thought.
"Yes. Gross, but yes." She said.

He crossed off a few things on his parchment and began scribbling again. After a few moments, he grinned at his handiwork and his hand shot into the air.
"Professor," he said, smiling. "If you were to mix Dittany with Snake Fangs, Hellebore, and stewed Mandrake, you could make a powerful reviving potion, couldn't you?" He was almost sure he was correct, but Potions was not one of Roderigo's best fortes.
"Yes, you could." She said.

Maybe if she got lucky it would actually be a real potion. "I bet if we mix all of the ingredients together it would make one nasty killing potion or something..." She said with a shrug. Hey it could work?
"What is it with this idea of killing? Just because you fail at potion, poisoning people is not a success. Five points from you as well." She said.

She thought for a while, then added.
"And the shrivelling potion. We could use the daisy roots, caterpillars, and the leeches..."
"Yes..." she said and moved on.

Looking up from her notes, she raised her hand and answered. "Belladonna boiled in a vial of mother's tears can create one of the most potent calming potions." It was a lesser known recipe, simple as it was. Maybe because noone bothers to collect a mother's tears...
"Don't forget catnip..." she said. "Essential."

"Very good." She said and then addressed the whole class.

"Very good." She repeated "All of you."

"Homework." She said taking a breath. "Worth 15 points." She said. "You are to go out on the grounds and retrieve five of the ingredients mentioned or even some you find along he way. Then return them to the stores by our next class. I am counting on you. I intend to have us brew in our next class... so do well. Dismissed."

ooc: This class was shorter than my usual classes because it's worth a few less points. By doing so, my homework is worth more (15 points.) To receive points I need to see a MINIMUM of 6 total posts: 5 on the grounds somewhere retrieving the five potion ingredients, one in the open potions stores leaving off your potions followed by a PM with user id and the links. Due two weeks from this post.

Potions made Selina nauseous, period. She had been quiet the entire class to prevent a random throw up from escaping her lips. It was not her favorite class, nor was it her best class as displayed in her blowing up her last cauldron in the previous lesson. But could you blame Selina? Lafay was scary, potions were scary... not a good mixture. So Selina had kept her mouth sealed shut the entire class so far to avoid spontaneous puking.

But then she heard a question she knew the answer to. So she timidly rose her hand to reply, quite the Gryffindor, and said, "Excuse me, ma'am? Scurvy-grass could be used in a Befuddlement Draught."

No potion brewing this time?! Well, they didn't have the ingredients to do it, but Eino was disappointed nonetheless. Maybe he could take some additional ingredients during his homework task for himself and then brew something in the potions laboratory just for fun. Maybe an Itch Relieving Potion or a Hair Growth Paste or Bowtruckle-Draught or anything else that was simple and safe enough that he could accomplish with a limited inventory. After a long sigh, a disappointed Eino returned to his desk and began packing his belongings. He would gather many, many, many ingredients! Yes, he would retrieve a bajillion ingredients so they could brew endless amounts of potions forever! All of the sudden he was so disappointed anymore, but rather excited to complete his homework assignment. "Good-bye, Professor!" He said as he waved at her. On his way out he nudged Kurumi, winked, and finally ran out of the classroom.

Nika wrote down the homework and then looked up at her professor. Okay so she was complaining about the essays they had to do before, but she takes that back. Finding ingredients is worse. She gathered her things and smiled at Raven before she got up and walked towards the door. "Thanks for the lesson Professor." She muttered as she left the classroom.

Raven got what the professor say, so they are going to stroll outside with a little excuses.

"Bye for now professor, and Good day again" Raven said as he march up to the door way.

Kurumi was a bit surprised that the lesson had ended already, but she certainly was fine with not having to brew a potion that required her to squish a leech or some other poor creature.

After writing down their homework, Kurumi began to return her things to her bag when she felt some one nudge her and she nearly threw all her papers up in the air in surprise. Oh, it was Eino. Kurumi blushed a little at his wink and watched him as he left the classroom. She would have to catch up with him afterwards so they could search for ingredients together. At least, that it what she thought the wink was for.

Could it have meant something else? It wasn't the same as when Treyen winked at her. At least, it didn't feel the same.

Things all gathered and safely back in her bag, Kurumi stood up and practically tip toed her way over to the Potions Mistress. "I'm...I'm really sorry about your storeroom," Kurumi said bowing deeply. Hopefully the woman didn't think Kurumi had done it because...she hadn't...unless you counted opening the door that caused the explosion her doing it. She bowed once more and then began making her way out of the classroom.

Jai scribbled down what he had to do, put his stuff away quickly and left. It was a very brief class but now he got to go out hunting for potion ingredients instead of just taking them from the cupboard.

After taking down notes on the homework, Aiden packs her belongings and arranges them neatly in her bag. Then, she slings the bag on her shoulder before she approaches her head of house. "Excuse me, professor," said Aiden politely before interrupting the professor. "About the ingredients you asked us to collect. How much do you want us to find for each ingredient?" she asked.

When professor Lafay said the word 'homework', Helena felt so relieved that she wouldn't have to look for leeches or other disgusting ingredients. But then... that was their homework.

That was just great.

She packed her stuff and stood up, then walked towards the door. "Goodbye, professor," Helena said, smiling, then left the classroom. She had a lot of ingredients to find.

Owh, no brewing today? But that was the best part of potions class! Oh well, it was kind of nice to have a small lesson for a change. But the homework sounded like it would be a catastrophic fail.

"Bye, Professor." He said kindly as he picked up all of his belongings. Now, what was he going to do? Straight to the grounds to start looking for it all. It would help if he knew what he was actually looking for. Knowing him, he'd end up bringing back a couple of grass blades and acting as if they would work. OH SIGH.

Jamie swung his bag over his shoulder and left the potions classroom.
