| | Transfiguration Lesson One Professor McAiken enters his classroom and with a wave of his wand lights all the candles and lamps in the room. He walks to front of the room and sets his notes on the desk. He moves around the room taking a short inventory to assure his supplies have arrived and are in place for today's lesson. From one of the jars on shelves he takes a hand full of needles and places them on his desk. Turning toward his chalkboard yet still several feet away he writes on the board using his wand. He writes:- What is Transfiguration?
- How does it different from other spells?
- Practice lesson
Satisfied his room is ready, he checks his watch for the time and decides he has time for tea before class. Locking the door, he heads towards the Staff Lounge. |

Reign makes some notes, rolls up her parchment, collects her stuff and leaves the class, excited about what she might learn in the next class.

Jaren pulled out his wand and made a short downward movement with it, pointing at the pin on the table. "Convertere!" It promptly turned into a pillbox. He repeated the incantation, this time with the upward sweeping motion the professor just taught them, and turned the box back into a pin.

| Double Agent Stamps! Mrs. Weasley walks up to Professor McAiken's desk and retrieves a pin. She returns to her desk, places the pin on it, takes out her wand, and begins her incantation. She points her wand at the pin and tries to visualize a pill box in her mind. Making a short downward motion with her wand, she says Convertere. The pins turn into a Faberge enamel pill box she had recently seen in a book on the subject. "Cool," she says, "I've always wanted one of them." Looking at the box, she hate to have to transform it back into a pin. But since that is part of the assignment, she has no choice. Repeating the spell, she turns it back into a pin. |

Francis, who was seating down in the front, takes notes of what the teacher has said. Smiling, she waits patiently for the next comments

Llew continues to struggle attempting to change his pin into a pillbox, "convertere!" After numerous tries he sighs, and looks around at the other students before continuing slowly again.

Llew finally succeeds in changing his pin into a silvery, narrow pillbox with a sharp point. He smiles proudly to himself then looks around again, and noticing Mia's quick progress he sighs again and goes back to attempting to reverse the spell.

Hogwarts RPG Name: Daciana Tudor First | Riiya places her quill down on the table and got up from her chair. she had sat behind, so she had to line up to get the pin. she moved slowly to the front, as she did, she watched as everyone tried their efforts to change the pin into a pill box. she closed her eyes and then looked to the front. once she reached to the desk, she picked up a pin and walked back to her seat. she placed the pin on her table, beside her parchement. taking out her wand from her pocket robe, Riiya looked at the pin. she pointed at the pin. At one swift short downward motion, she said, "convertere." The pin rolled on the table to the left and then transformed into a beautiful small blue pill box. she kept back her wand and picked up her box. satisfied of her work she sat back down. she picked up her quill again. she gazed at the class who were all busy transfigurating the pin, she looked back down to her parchment and wrote a few more notes from class. A question arrised from her mind. she was confronted by this question before and wanted to confirm her reply. she raised her hand and looked up, hoping that the Professor saw her hand from the front. then it struck her. she was about to ask a question...in class...while everyone was still there..fear came to her mind, but it was too late now. "Excuse m-me, Professor. i was curious about the concept o-of Transfiguration. how does it work exactly...?" |

Chryssie frowned and pointed her wand at the pin.
"Convertere" she muttered and smiled as she watched her pin transform into a shocking pink pill-box.

Hogwarts RPG Name: Maximus O. Vindictus III First Year | No Touchy! ♥ demented_teacher Kay fouces on the pin lying on the desk in front of her. With short downward motion of her wand, commands, "Convertere" in a clear even voice. The pin immediately turns into a pillbox. She then repeats the incantation with a simple swish and flick of her wand, and the pillbox transforms back into a pin. |

| *Moving up to the Professors desk Cassandra retrieves a pin and heads back to her own desk. Pulling out her mahogany wand she points the tip of it at the pin and concentrates hard on the pin becoming a pillbox. With a downward movement and the word convertere, the pin becomes a pillbox. After a moment of listening to the Professor Cassandra does the reverse of the spell with a swish and flick movement and the incantation again. Smiling a bit proud of herself she beams as she realizes she's done her first real bit of magic. With the task at hand accomplished she looks around the classroom to see how the other students are doing. Noticing the Slytherin girl who had smiled at her earlier and some of students from all of the houses.*

With a somewhat defeated look, Llew continues to attempt to re-transfigure his pin back from a pill box. After numerous tries, his pill box changes back into a pin and begins rolling around on the desk. Llew quirks an eyebrow and looks at the chaotic pin...

*Hayley sits down at a desk in the back of the class. She takes out her quill, ink bottle, and a peice of parchment. She copies the notes down, then walks up to the Professors desk to retrieve the pin. Back at her desk, after a few tries, she successfully manages to turn the pin into a pillbox and back again. Smiling to herself she drops her quill and patiently waits for the next bit*
*After another hour or so of simple spells, Hayley packs up her materials and head to her next class*

| The HBP continues to practice changing the pin back and forth into a pill box. He looks around at Riya as she ask her question. He thinks a moment then says, "Transfiguration magic isn't hard to understand. We as witches and wizards have powers, one of these is the ability to change things. Even Muggles have the ability to change but their changes take time, like dieting. Yet we are able to use the essence of being a who we are to speed up the process or bend the object into what we want it to be or go where we want it to go. That's my theory. I mean how are able to do half of the things a muggle think would be amazing like summoning a book with a Accio Charm, or brewing a potion that can force a person to tell the truth. Some of it is the we are trained but we can't receive the training without that special part of us that makes us witches and wizards to begin with."

"Convertere," Eric said with a swish of his wand. His pin turned into a matchbox instead. "Great," he muttered under his breath.

Very good HBP, 5 points to Gryffindor for an excellent response. You pretty much hit the nail on the head. Riiya the special quality that makes you a witch is the very reason that you are able to do Transfiguration magic. All the things have the ability to change so our powers can use that to do Transfiguration magic. It's like a chemical or math formula in it most complex terms. The laws of the earth and of our kind rule even us but we have a power that allows us to skip steps that muggles have to take. A muggle can produce a pillbox out of a pin too, but he would need to use more than one step because he would need several pins then melt it, and form the new object by manufactoring processes.

| Jade quickly copies down the notes on the board, as well as the Professor's Lecture. Raising her wand high, she firmly states *Convertere*, and watches as her pin turns into a pillbox. She smiles, lowers her wand, and waits for more instruction for the professor. |

Francis lifts up her wand, and says "Convertere!" towards the pin. Smiling, she picks up the pillbox. She repeats the exercise for a while, smiling proudly. This time, however, she transforms the pillboxes with different colors and with different shines.
