My Multiverse Trip 23 23. First Day Of School Part 2

after they were let out of transfiguration their next cla.s.s was charms with professor flitwick the tiny little half goblin who is also a professional dueling champion Ryan would one day love to learn from him some tips and tricks solo training can only really take someone so far most of what he practices right now are just body strengthening flexibility and dodging if they can't hit you they can't outrun you and they can't outlast you your pretty much in the clear and from what he remembers most wizards are lazy from use of magic I mean why do anything when you can have magic do it for you why walk when you can apperate why lift weights when you can just levitate everything heavy from what he recalls In the books almost all the aurors during the coming war were f.u.c.king useless they had next to zero combat experience and the stun and run tactics laughable when your enemy just renervates his partner back into the fight you really want to put down and not kill? take an arm or a leg with a cutting curse send them into shock you want them down for good finish off the job if they are firing off killing curses blasting curses bone breakers and bone exploders organ melting curses you put them down hard that's why half the last was was so long they kept just getting stunned and sent to Azkaban just to be bailed out by rich friends and back into the fight murdering the next day and repeat. Dumbledore and his carpet forgiveness only works on people who aren't cold blooded killers out enjoying a good Ole time and costing good men and women their lives. I'll have to learn some nasty things later to get the drop on people if it comes down to it. back to cla.s.s.

Professor Flitwick, the Charms teacher, was a tiny little wizard who had to stand on a pile of books to see over his desk. At the start of their first cla.s.s he took the roll call, and when he reached Harry's name he gave an excited squeak and toppled out of sight. after the shock of that he calmed down and explained the ins and outs of charms and what to expect and what they will be learning Charms are a type of magic spell concerned with enchanting an object to behave in a way that isn't normal for that object. For example, the Summoning Charm brings an object to the caster. Charms is also something of a catch-all for spells that aren't Transfiguration (spells that change the inherent nature of an object). In some sense, if a spell isn't Transfiguration, it's probably a Charm.

A Charm adds properties to an object or creature, while Transfiguration changes the object or creature into something else.

Curses, jinxes and hexes are known as Dark Charms, and therefore not included in The Standard Book of Spells 1 by Miranda Goshawk .

This is not to say that regular Charms are weaker magic; a well-chosen Charm is a powerful magical tool against curses, jinxes, and hexes..

Many of the early charms learned by young wizards can be broken easily, and wear off within hours or days .

Creatures of a large size such as trolls have thick skin which can repel charms . This fact probably applies to giants and dragons as well.

A Charm might cause something to flash different colors. It might cause an object to levitate or even fly through the air. Charms can make a person laugh or dance or even create a bubble of breathable air around a person's head. In all of these cases, the object or the person doesn't really change, they just do something unexpected.

Some Charms can be extremely powerful. The Fidelius Charm, for example, can completely hide a person or a place in such a way that no one can find them unless they are given the location by a Secret Keeper. Memory Charms can be so strong that they completely remove a person's memory or even damage his or her mind permanently. some of these things Ryan didn't know and was taking notes along with other students it was a very enlightening experience just because he read the books and novels doesn't mean he knows a lot about magic he just knows some basic descriptions he has read through most of his first year books but that's just basic knowledge he would more than likely lose to even a 3rd year with a little bit of spell work right now unless he kept dodging all the time. his basic plan was honestly just use the same spells enough times until he gets it right he didn't really understand the spells. he will be doing a lot of late night studying to make up for these faults.

After cla.s.s was herbology they got the basic rundown of what they were there to learn Herbology is the study of magical and mundane plants and fungi, making it the wizarding equivalent to botany. Herbology is a core cla.s.s in which students learn to care for and utilise plants, learn about their magical properties and what they are used for. Many plants provide ingredients for potions and medicine, while others have magical effects of their own right. Herbology is a mandatory cla.s.s at Hogwarts for the first five years of a student's education. Students spend cla.s.s time learning about the different varieties of magical plants that exist. The further into a student's education the more difficult and dangerous the plants become.

In the fifth year, when students take Ordinary Wizarding Level examinations, much of the year is spent working with a variety of more dangerous plants like the Fanged Geranium, as well as revisiting the past four years of lessons. As part of their Herbology O.W.L, students must sit a written exam, and then complete a practical exam, during which the students work with a wide selection of plantsStudents who achieve a pa.s.s grade on their Herbology O.W.L. move on to the advanced cla.s.s, where the plants become even more dangerous. At the end of their seventh year, students prepare for their N.E.W.T.s. after the basics for this cla.s.s are done he walks back for lunch in the great hall with Luna happily skipping beside him and Harry pondering over some mysterious question of the universe or just thinking about what he want for lunch. Ryan feels a glare on the back of his head and turns and sees Daphne scowling at him with at light blush on her cheeks probably remembering his earlier teasing at breakfast oh well lunch calls for crispy chicken he knows defense against the dark arts is gunna be absolute s.h.i.+t with quirrelmort and that rotten smelling room of his. he might as well pick up something good to read during that cla.s.s and nap time I mean history of magic might as well do something useful. he enjoys some crispy chicken tenders and some nice pumpkin juice I mean that's pretty much all they have besides milk or water what's with wizards and pumpkins? he doesn't really have any time to find a decent book to read now so he will do it later for study time.
