As you walk down the first floor corridor headed towards the History of Magic classroom, the faint sounds of music can be heard coming from that direction. It's not all that loud and seems more for the benefit of Professor Glendower as she is putting herself in the proper mindset for class.

Outside the classroom door hangs a large, ornate sign with the message, Make an Entrance. It is the same sign that hung outside the room last year, but she has written in her own flowery cursive the word Respectfully

underneath it as she realized that some students needed the reminder. She was all about creativity and individual interpretation, but it was important to be nice too!

Once inside the classroom, you'll find Professor Glendower who might be singing along to the music as she happily dances through the rows of chairs, placing a chocolate frog on each desk. Welcome to History of Magic!

You ok there, fella? Seems you took a nasty tumble with yer big coat and sparkly bottomed shoes. Cool sound there with the click-clacking on the floor. Don't know I've seen yer wizard on a card.

Ceorlic patted himself down, and nodded to acknowlege the classmate who came over showing concern for him. He was fine. He lifted his head up to see who the other boy was, his eyes almost popping out of their sockets! "Am ah a'richt?! whit aboot ye! Professor!!

"Yer nae even properly bandaged!"....Wait....Oooooooh Slow Ceo was Slow. Though he'd never admit it. That costume was really convincing. Completely ignoring that he just had a small outburst, Ceo asked his Classmate a Question. "Whit did ye dae tae yersel? Ye keek like yer on the verge of Keeling o'er?"Oh and to answe his. "A'm nae sure he's pure Visable nae mair Tae Start with."That answer came with a Nod

Hopefully she was right because that would narrow down the choices considerably.

Jasmine tried to think of other questions for the Tap Dance Kid. "Do you have any other talents besides dancing?", she asked. She was going to guess this character correctly, or else.

Then another Question came flying at him from behind him. So Ceorlic turned around. PERFECT ANOTHER LOONEY Who thinks she's some Dark Superior Witch! Oh wait...she was just pretending too. Okay Ceo Calm down. He nodded yes to her concern then answered her Question. "Ah am, and Mibbie. Ah dae like tae Perform. Sae ah may hae a mukkle mair tricks up m' sleeve." He tugged on his Coat Sleeve a bit. Then asked his Question to her. "Are ye her?" He pointed over to the Head Bonny from his House. She dressed slightly similar to how she was costumed at the moment. Also wasn't she a Witch of sorts anyways?

Ian watched the boy collect himself and begin to answer his question. Ian was a bit surprised when the lad started having a fit when he lifted his head and saying something about a healer. Ian looked around and asked, Who needs a healer? I didn't know this lesson would be so dangerous. Who would have thought healers would need to show up for a history of magic class. Then again, this school wasn't exactly famed for it's safety record with it's young students. Ian still recalled how awful things had been when he was old. Then the boy slowed down and told Ian he hadn't properly bandaged himself.

Ian looked at the boy with this new found revelation showing on his face. Oh, it's nothing. Just trying to get into character. Ian patted his 'blood' covered spots to show he was right as rain.

In response to the boy's question, Ian decided to answer as the character would (or so Ian thought). He took on a mock wobbly voice, bent over so as to appear in pain again and answered. Don' right'ley know. I was out for a pleasant evening stroll. You know it's nice in the evening around where I live. Miserably hot the rest of the time. I was minding my own business, keeping a look out for wild beasties when I heard loud thundering footsteps. Sounded like they were coming right at me. I turned, but it was too late. I felt a push in mah back and the next thing I knew, I woke up in the dark, laying on me side and blood everywhere. Never knew what hit me.

Ian listened carefully to Ceo's response concerning his card. Said something about maybe not being visible to start with. [i]Hmmm. That's interesting. You've got a wizard trading card with no wizard in the picture?[/b]

Puck quickly donned some protective Quidditch gear after transfiguring her school uniform into a Quidditch uniform…really, she looked the part. With her arms, legs, and hands covered she pulled on a giant pair of goggles and placed them above her head…a quaffle tucked under her arm for effect…and maybe a broom was needed?

With a quick pout she fluuuuuuuuuufed and ruffled her hair to make it look all windswept. NOW who was she going to work with?

FearlessLeader19 · 09-24-2014, 04:49 PM

Adi had his Froggy's card with him so he could make himself look as accurately as possible as Newt Scamander. Giving clues and stuff shouldn't be too hard given that the man was pretty well known for his work. The disadvantage of that was that everyone should be able to guess who he was in a heartbeat. Oh well. Maybe Adi could try to make things a bit difficult.

The only thing he figured he needed was a wig. Scamander was Sorted into Hufflepuff otherwise he would have changed his tie to whatever House. He decided to be Newt when his hair was just about to turn gray. He found a wig with half black and half white and pulled it on. At the last minute he also decided to add a pointed, black hat to his head. Hmmm. Were there any props he could use? Adi dug into the boxes, searching...searching...searching... AHA!

Grinning broadly, the fourth year tugged out a stuffed Hippogriff quite like the one he had that he had built at the Prefect event during his first year. Except this one was about three or four times bigger. Excellent. Now he was ready. Hippogriff in hand, he headed in the direction of his seat. Who wanted to guess who he had dressed up as?

Weasley174 · 09-24-2014, 04:51 PM

Angel was totally going to enjoy this, she was going to be an ex Hufflepuff that has the powers of a Gryffindor because this woman had been the first female minister of magic... she must have been all powerful and that was something Angel could do.

Angel put on a black robe and then made sure she looked smart because that is what the woman in the chocolate frog card looked like. Now it was time for business but what did she have to do? Did she have to act like she was a minister of magic because if that was the case then surely she could tell the Professor what to do and well being the first Female Minister meant she must have had a hard time with certain people being upset about it.

Kolyander · 09-24-2014, 04:57 PM

Now that she was all dressed the part Hady just needed to find someone to work with. Sighing softly the young girl looked around the room for someone that was alone and possibly was looking for someone to work with as well.

Hady scratched at her cheek lightly where the white beard was rubbing against her skin. Maybe she didn't need the wig and beard? Surely someone would know who she was just by the bright robes she wore and glasses. If they didn't maybe the lemon drop candies she held in her hand would be clue enough.

Weasley174 · 09-24-2014, 05:53 PM

Angel looked at herself she was totally ready for this.

"HUFFLEPUFF!!" Angel was going to give the woman's life story. "Why Hufflepuff?" She looked at the sorting hat... seriously didn't the sorting hat know what life she was going to have and now well it had put her in Hufflepuff. "I know why." Angel giggled to herself as she pretended to look in the mirror. "I'm going to be famous one day and make Hufflepuff proud." Angel was sure that her card probably wanted Gryffindor but well Hufflepuff was amazing as well.

"Hey!!" Angel beamed as she pretended to be older now. "Can you believe it seventh years already and soon we'll be going into the big world." Angel already knew what she wanted to be. "I'm going to be someone famous when I'm older." Yeah so watch out everyone.

Angel then pretended to be older as well. "OH!!!!!" Angel was sure that some of the people wouldn't like this and well she was sure some people would resign because of this. "I can't do it!" Angel was totally shaking now. "What if I fail?" Angel didn't know if that could happen but well it might.

Angel smiled and became more confident in her ability. "I want that report on my desk first thing... I know I have a meeting with him tomorrow at 4." Angel giggled this was so cool. "Yeah I will get round to it... assemble all the main people I will be wanting a briefing in the next hour telling me all about what is going on." Angel looked at her desk and then sat down behind it. "I must be the most powerful woman in the world." She then pretended that she was writing instructions and signing off on stuff.

"Anyone want to guess?" Angel broke character as she ended her scene.

Would you looky there. It seemed like a girl close to her age was looking for a partner. She was all dressed up and seemed to be at the questioning stage. No time to lose here. AJ not only needed to figure out what card somebody else had, but they also had to figure out hers as well.

Walking over to the girl, she gave her a big smile. "Wanna work together?" AJ sized her up. She took in her wig and beard, and bells were going off in her head. Who was it though?

Meanwhile AJ had on glasses, was dressed in boy clothes with a Gryffindor robe on top. Her hair was all ruffled, and she was ready to get to guessing. Did they have to do like an interview type thing?

FearlessLeader19 · 09-24-2014, 06:12 PM

SPOILER!!: Lil Sis!

WHO was that loud mouth person shouting about Hufflepuff? Adi flicked his head in the direction of the voice. Oh. Angel. Go figure. Adi watched her as she continued. She was obviously giving clues to her character.

Hmm...female, a Hufflepuff, someone obviously in high power. The Hufflepuff tried to piece the clues together. He was a huge fan of collecting Frog cards but he had quit reading them for a while now. Ugh! He should have paid more attention to those cards.

He shifted the stuffed hippogriff from one hand to the other. He had no idea who Angel's charrie was. "Er...Hannah Abbott?'' he said, making a guess. Maybe Hannah wanted a briefing on things at the Leaky Cauldron.

Angel just stared at Adi. "Eh!" Angel was back in character. "Who's Hannah Abbott?" Angel was way older than that person. "I'm from the 1700's and I know no Hannah Abbott?" Angel looked at Adi. "Was she someone massive as well?" Angel beamed. "Did she follow in my footsteps.. I was the first woman to be amazing." Angel was trying to stay in character without giving too much away. "Surely you've heard of me?" Angel looked at the kid. "What are school's teaching you today?" Angel would be having words with the Professor, they needed to know everything about this woman on the card, she was totally amazing. "I worked in a big building.. in fact in the end I worked myself right up-to the top job even though people didn't like it." Now that should have been a big clue.

Angel then broke out of character and decided to guess Adi. "I think you are someone old like Newt Scrooge I think his name was... died because of an adventure he went on." Angel wasn't sure if she was on the right lines or not but it was worth a guess and well he looked like scrooge.

*Holmesian Feline* · 09-24-2014, 07:09 PM

One chocolate frog to make one girl, or rather girlfriend, happy. "You're welcome," he said in response to her thanks for the gesture. Hopefully Adi wouldn't be bothered to share since at other times the Hufflepuff had received his off-casts.

Now that he had his character to portray, he had to look look the man or give clues to others about him. Given what he noticed the others in the class doing Benny waited for some time with the supplies to dig through what was there. Certainly there would be something for everyone's chocolate frog...right. That would be fair for them so surely the professor thought things through.

It took some time and searching before he noticed what looked like something reptilian poking out from between clothes. Gingerly pulling them out, he found a pair of dragon wings one could wear by slipping on their back. Ben approved since it would at least bring up the creature related to the disease his person had died from. Putting them on himself wasn't easy at first but finally they were in place and staying in place while he moved.

Moving on he found a packet of markers. He looked inside and found a green one still withing and thought of another idea. A way to make the 'pox.' The fourth year decided to continue on searching through for a little something more and found a stuffed animal. A stuffed dragon to be precise.

Perfect.

You know what was wrong with this activity? It required ACTING, a skill he did not possess. There was a reason he was always the freaking tree or a sheep or another background character in school plays, you know. Even HE knew and he didn't care or mind, for that matter. The only time he did, was when his mum decided to embarrass him by telling him she was proud of his wonderful, waving tree trunk arms in front of EVERYONE. So, Grayson eyed the card in front of him and flipped it over, all the while mentally chanting something in his head.

'Please don't let it be anyone stupid... please let it be someone COOL...'

.......................... Who in the name of Merlin was EDGAR STROULGER?! Dude looked more like a mad scientist than anything else from the picture in his card. Which wasn't half wrong because, according to the description, he was some inventor dude who had invented the Sneakoscope. Eh. Not bad. And certainly better than the Dungbomb guy.

And now he had to dress up as him and pretend to be him. Right.

This was gonna be a long lesson.

Felixir · 09-24-2014, 07:44 PM

SPOILER!!: Soph

THAT made Toby jump. He sort of jolted back a little at the sneeze, looking alarmed a slightly concerned for a moment. Was she getting a c-... ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh. Right. ACTING.

............ Soph was really good at this, was she aware? Toby sort of kept half-forgetting that they were doing an acting activity and would momentarily think about suggesting she see the Healer or something.

He just sort of nodded along in an 'oh yes of course yes right' sort of way. Totally knew who she was meant to be. Absolutely.

Well, he DID have an inkling sort of maybe, but even though he had a vague idea of what her famous witch or wizard had to have done, that didn't mean he'd be able to know the name. At all. But.......... still didn't hurt to play along.

Uh. "You should... absolutely do that. Yeah." Toby was torn for a while about mentioning the Pepper-Up Potion. That was what she was meant to be angling at, right? Uhhh. Ahem. "Maybe it'll give you some.................. pep."

...

Now, HIS one he could do. Toby roughly finished up sketching out the blueprints and stood up again. Would it be cheating if he wrote 'Hogsmeade' down too? Maybe he'd save that clue for last.

"Oh. Y'know. In Scotland," the Hufflepuff said to his girlfriend-but-currently-pretending-not-to-be. "We need a safe place for wizards to live these days."

Was he doing it right?

Expecto-Penguin · 09-24-2014, 07:55 PM

Alright time to go find some dress up clothes. He brought his card with him just incase he needed something to refer back to. Alright so he needed to find a top hat, that was numero uno. He fished in the trunk for one and he actually found one! It wasn't purple but it was black. That was close enough. He next needed to find a monocle. He fished into his trunk for one and found one and it was even equipped with a mustache! He smiled and picked it up This was gonna be fun! Now he needed some gloves and a cane! He fished into the trunk and had to dig into really well. He managed to find a cane! He picked it up, it didn't look exactly like it was in the picture but it was close enough.

Now he needed some gloves. He managed to find some brown ones at the top. He smiled and started putting them on. He put on the gloves, the monocle with the mustache, the top hat and now he needed some gray hair! He needed to find a wig! He found a gray wig and took his top hot off and put the grey wig on and put the top hat over it. He needed a winged horse too! He went into the bin and found a cute plushie of the winged horse. It could work.

AmbiguouslyMe · 09-24-2014, 08:01 PM

Thornton flipped his card over and his eyes grew wide. That.. that was a cello. And.. it was a rock band?? He rubbed his eyes, making sure he was reading the card correctly. There it was, plain as day, Merton Graves, cellist, Weird Sisters.

Sisters?

Thornton's train of thought hiccuped a bit at that detail, but he resolved to look at it later. Sliding out of his seat, he made his way to the costumes, having committed the image to memory. Clearly, a cello would be the best prop, but could there possibly be one in the costume materials? He certainly wasn't going to go up to the tower and get his own...

But there was certainly a wig to make his hair longer, robes that looked sort of tattered in what Thornton assumed was a 'cool' way, and... could it be?

An inflatable cello.

Claiming it as his own, he sat to inflate it, smearing just a bit of ink on his face to be stage makeup.

FearlessLeader19 · 09-24-2014, 08:14 PM

SPOILER!!: Angeeel

Not Hannah Abbot then? Good golly. A whole lot of Hufflepuffs left to choose from then. Time to put his thinking cap on again. Adi listened closely to Angel as she went on giving more clues. Big building? Erm...Gringotts? No...goblins worked there. Um, um, UMMMM. "Hold on. Let me think some more.''

Newt Scrooge? Adi laughed. "Well, you've got half of it correct.'' He supposed the Hippogriff did it, made his friend guess correctly. "I think you mean Newt Scamander. And yes, you'd be correct. Well done.'' See? Adi knew people would guess his character in an instant.

Spotting a bearded Kyroh, the second year stopped her playing and raised her eyebrows. She was sure there were lots of bearded men on the chocolate frog cards so focusing on his expression and things he said would be more important, yeah? Time to play detective. She was EQUALLY as talented at THAT.

"Cool beard-" PAUSE. How did Herman talk, anyway? Maddie only knew ONE wrock star well and THAT was Nigel. So maybe she could channel HIM a bit right now? Cool. "-Man." The thirteen year old adjusted herself so that she was lounging in a relaxed manner at her seat, not a care in the world. After strumming the make-shift lute a FEW more times, she added, "So you got any skills?" Not that she cared because she was a wrock star and chill and going with the flow, man.

Alright. Okay. He had to get into the Slytherin mind set. He WAS the founder of Slytherin he WAS totally cool and better than everyone. That meant better than you Lex. And not ugly either. Head up, nose up. Yup. He WAS better than you. Kyroh did his best to walk with an air of confidence to his steps and was on his way back to talk to Toby when Maddie grabbed his attention

Cool beard? A smile threatened to break out on his face "THANKS-" Er- wait. The Slytherin founder wouldn't act like that right? Pushing back the grin that wanted to escaped he GLARED at her. Salazar would glare right? Huh? Doing his BEST his lowered his voice just slightly. "Thank you-I find it very-uh....academic." A small giggle escaped his lips.

"Skills?" PSSH. Kyroh lifted his head higher, as if trying to look down on Maddie the guitar playing person. "What a ridiculous question. It's people like you-" POINTED FINGER. "-that I will not allow around my presence."

.....Was that too mean? He didn't think Slytherin would be that friendly but....."Unless you have talents of course-" He gazed at the stringed instrument that Maddie was strumming. "What are you playing there?"

Daydreamer11 · 09-24-2014, 08:42 PM

SPOILER!!: Eden

Oh, Jasmine had another person to trade guesses with when Eden came over and suggested that they take turns. "Sounds good to me", she said. "How about we both give each other some clues and then we can try to guess each other's person? I'll start. I was a Ravenclaw. My favorite subject was Herbology and I invented something very useful." Jasmine shook her container of glitter for effect and to give another clue.

"Now you.......give me a few clues about the person you're supposed to be and I'll guess." Jasmine checked out Eden's costume and tried to get some hints from it.

SPOILER!!: Ceorlic

When the boy responded to her Jasmine just stared at him for a moment. Blink Blink. She had a hard time understanding his Scottish accent at first. She got the tricks up my sleeve part and said, "Sooooo, are you a magician then?" Obviously he was a dancer/ performer, but beyond that, Jasmine was drawing a blank. Then another question popped into Jasmine's head. "Are you most well known for one thing in particular?" She was going to have to review her list of chocolate frog subjects to figure out this answer.

When her classmate asked if she was Malifecent, Jasmine had to laugh. She was pretty much expecting someone to ask that. She could understand why he would come to that conclusion since they did appear similar. "No, I am most definitely not her." No Mistress of All Evil here. "I'm a good witch. I created something long ago that is still in use today." Should she give him more? Oh why not? Jasmine was sure that if anyone was to guess who she was, she'd have to feed them a lot of information. "I helped make travel easier for witches and wizards.". There, did that help?

SPOILER!!: Puck

For a finishing touch Ben uncapped the green marker and began dotting the skin of his hands and his cheeks with it. He certainly hoped he could get it all cleaned up afterwards. There...the Gryffindor supposed he looked sickly but he didn't exactly have a mirror to look over himself with. Finished with his faux persona, he looked around to take in the others and their work. Was there anyone he could guess or be guessed by?

They all looked so different with the help of various treasures though he managed to pick Adi and Angel working with each other. Benny wandered around a little amongst others seemingly paired off in one way or another. Finally he settled on a girl his own age, one that unless he was mistaken he might have seen around familiar house spaces.

"Hey..." he greeted at first to be polite, following it up absently to emphasize being sick. On her side, it was clear there was a quidditch connection. "Gonna say...famous female quiditch star," he suggested to offer a first guess. Her gender given by the way her hair had been messed with.

The rest was gonna need some clues.

Cough...cough...cough.

The fourth year got up and went over the trunk to find a costume for Celestina Warbeck. Cinna searched around inside the trunk she had some ideas. First she was thinking about a wing, some kind of 1960's Motown type hairstyle. Short and brown, because that just screamed Celestina. Searching searching. Ah she found one.

Now she needed a dress with sequenced. Yeah that kind of seem to also fit too. The whole 1960's music era. That was like her theme for picking things out. As she was looking through for the dress and she spotted a pair of white long gloves and a red and white feather boa.

Finally she found a sleek red sequenced dress it was perfect. She wondered if she could find a microphone and use that as a prop. Not that she thought she would needed it because to her the outfit should totally give it away. If not the singing sure would.

Casey O · 09-24-2014, 09:12 PM

Marigold finished licking the chocolate off her fingers before she looked at her wizarding card. She leaaaaned real close to it and shielded it with her shoulders so no one could see it. Wendelin the Weird. She flipping open her textbook just to make sure she knew who she was. Oh look. She would have to play a weirdo. She stood up and his her card in her pocket before making her way over to the costumes.

Her jaw had to have dropped to the floor when she saw the guy dotting his face and skin with the green marker. "You could say that" she shrugged her shoulder as she glanced at the guy once more squinting at the green spots...what she wanted to make sure he hadn't been just covering up his own sickness with the class assignment.

Okay, she was just going to be blunt..."its your card person who has the pox right? not you?" she asked stepping backwards a little bit as she stood there. She just didn't want pox-boy to give her pox if he had them.

Awarlesta Black · 09-24-2014, 10:10 PM

Dec might be way to excited to do this activity. In his defense, being a wrockstar was a cool dream of his. Granted, he never did pick up an instrument, but in this way, he could at least pretend he could. Woo.

He got up to go through the box of props and stuff that the professor provided. He found a black wig and deemed it worthy, placing it on his head (he casted Scourify on it first as a safety caution, don't know where that's been.) Then he found a pirate-y shirt with ruffles on it and thought it was pretty close to being glam wrock. Aha! and a toy guitar! Perfect!

Dec looked down at his pants and decided they needed to be tighter to wrockstar standards. He'd say, he looks pretty Kirley Duke.

SilverTiger · 09-24-2014, 10:24 PM

Some people were really getting into the assignment, as Brooklyn watched the boy who was all bloody and bandaged get the notice of one with a funny accent. And then there was the boy with all the green spots. Green was nice, but not spots. She knew that she wouldn’t want spots. Either way, people weren’t noticing her, which meant that either nobody could figure out who she was from her costume or they were ignoring her. She didn’t like being ignored, and her person was important. Actually, in a way her person could have been connected to the story that the head girl’s fairy tale act came from. Sort of. Maybe. Obviously whatever was going on there, the older girl hadn’t liked whichever card person she’d gotten.

Too bad for her. Brooklyn liked hers. Adjusting the hood over her head so it looked more like the picture on the card still in her pocket, she gathered her birds and her bottle and climbed on her chair. At least then maybe someone would see her, and besides, she was supposed to be a druidess. They were awfully powerful, as far as she was concerned. That meant she was important. The only difference was that she felt like she didn’t need to advertise what she’d done. Why she was important and people should know who she was portraying. Of course, she was important by herself, and being ignored was starting to annoy her.

Soph hadn't expected him to jump and she did her best to stay in character and refrain from laughing - she couldn't help but snort a little, but otherwise she kept her composure fairly well. Sniff, sniff. Cough. Give you some.... pep. SNORT. "Pep would be nice. I'll work on it right now."

Aaaaand she set to miming a whole brewing of a potion in her invisible cauldron, an amused grin on her face. She didn't have to think too much about what she was doing - she was miming measuring things out, cutting up ingredients, and throwing them into her non-existent cauldron like it was nothing.

"Maybe a little..." she squinted, trying to recall what was in a pepperup potion, "...bicorn horn here, dunno why, just seems like a good idea..." She RECALLED that as an ingredient, but she couldn't piece together on the spot what use it had for the potion, "Aaaand maybe... some mandrake root..." Wasn't that an ingredient, too? Probably?

Though, glancing at Tobes, she wasn't sure that he knew the ingredients - nor that he really even cared what the ingredients were - so maybe she didn't have to try so hard.

When Tobes answered her question about the blueprints, she responded, multitasking her miming easily, "In Scotland, eh? Good choice of location." She didn't really know if it was or not back in the day, but she could humor him well enough. "That's very thoughtful of you." Wasn't it? She knew outright now that it was the Hogsmeade creator guy - but for the life of her, she couldn't remember what exactly, his name was. Wasn't he... one of those... name of names, though? A proper title where it said where he was from? "Where are you from, sir?" Assuming it was a sir. Had to be.
