 ☠ Amanda Davis ☠
Fourteen: Slytherin ChaserAmanda sat down in her usual seat at the back. This was where she sat ever since the first day of A History of Magic I, when an argument broke out between her and a fellow Slytherin student. Oh, the memories, she thought with a smirk as she chewed on a piece of salt water taffie. The girl found this subject boring, so she didn't pay attention too much. Obviously, she hadn't remember what topics they covered, so she stayed quiet and ate her sweets silently. You Touch Me..I break you.wearing

 I hate the world today
You're so good to me
I know but I can't change
Tried to tell you
But you look at me like maybe
I'm an angel underneath

± : . : ± : . : ± : . : ± Eretria walked into class, nearly yawning as she did so. It was not because she was tired or bored with the class, quite the contrary, she actually enjoyed it. It was however due to the fact that Professor Powell started the class the same way every year; with a review. She sat down next to Amanda and just propped her chin up on her hand, listening as the usual spiel was given about the class. ----------------------------------

So take me as I am
This may mean
You'll have to be a stronger man
Rest assured that
When I start to make you nervous
And I'm going to extremes
Tomorrow I will change
And today won't mean a thing

Hufflepuff|4th year|Muggle-Born|Single Why must I be judged upon the purity of my blood? Steele walked into the classroom, knowing that he could actually do well in this class. Surprisingly, unlike most students, he rather enjoyed History. He was always good at it in the other school and he quickly picked up on everything in the Wizarding World as well. But to be honest, there was a third thing that was taught, but he couldn't place it. It slipped his mind and this ate at him. Will I ever be the same?

❀ℱourth ϒear❀ ℋalf~ℬlood❀Heather and DhylanSehza ℋeather entered the classroom and took her seat in the front corner of the room. History was an... okay subject for her. Not like Herbology, but still manageable. Turning to every voice that spoke, she found that she had nothing to add to the conversation. Thus, she sat quietly as she waited for the class to end, scratching at her notebook with her quill in hopes that some sort of doodle would appear. {ooc: bleh.}

 ≎≎≎≎≎≎≎≎ Grayson Powell History of Magic Professor
Former Ravenclaw ≎≎≎≎≎≎≎≎ Now where did I put that wand?Grayson walked into the classroom, ready for another day of class to start. Taking a piece of chalk, he quickly wrote on the board. He then turned to face the class."Today, we're going to be examining the ancient cultures of Greece and Egypt, and how they used magic. Specifically, we're going to be focusing on several points in ancient history to really get a feel for how they must have interacted with not only the world, but also with Muggles.
"In truth, ancient wizards and witches worked together with muggles, and muggles didn't fear them. Wizards were held in high esteem in that time period, and evidence can be found throughout the ancient world of interaction between the two groups. This particular piece," he said, gesturing to the stone tablet that was displayed, "is actually a replica of another tablet that had to be removed from a dig site, as it clearly demonstrated several instances of real magic being performed, such as the curse that was placed on the tomb that this tablet came from.
"There were several notable wizards and witches during this time. Circe was a Greek witch that specialized in transfiguration, and was well-known both in the wizarding world as well as in the muggle community for turning sailors into pigs. There was another named Andros the Invincible, who was well-known for producing a patronus the size of a giant, for which he gained his title. There was also Mopsus, who was a Seer and defeated his rival in a competition of their powers.
"Most wizards and witches worked with muggles on numerous occasions. In Egypt, you can see the evidence for it in the tombs of rulers, as evidence of skeletons warped by magic have survived. These individuals probably ran across the curses ancient wizards placed to protect such sights from graverobbers."Grayson looked around the room, studying each student before continuing. "Please feel free to ask any questions, or to make any comments. While I know that everyone here might not be interested, at least some of you might be."----------------------------------

Shina Kiremono~Fourth Year~Ravenclaw Seeker Shina sat down and got out her things. Oh, Egypt and Greece! She took quick notes in her usual neat handwriting, quickly filling her page. At the end of the lecture, she raised her hand. "Is there evidence that wizards might have been a specific caste, like scribes, priests, or other skilled people, or would they have been spread across multiple castes?" Shina asked. ((OOC: ... ))

_________________________________________ It felt odd for Chase to not have any questions. Though recently, he had been more preoccupied with events such as Quidditch that prevented him from focusing all of his energy into his studies. A part of it was how he found out that Sun quit the sport out of the blue. Dear god that boy. When Chase refocused on the lesson, the professor was talking about something, something Invincible. Ugh, if this shows up on a test...____________________

 Now where did I put that wand?Grayson, unlike last year, was actually prepared to lecture when the students entered the classroom. He was seated behind his desk, but as people filed in, he stood and walked in front of it to stand before them all. He waited until the last of the students found their seats before speaking."Hello class, and welcome back to History of Magic. Today, I figured we could review what was learned in the last class as a refresher for those that may need it. After all, an entire summer has passed, which means you might have had time to forget some of what you may have learned. Please answer one at a time and cover one topic each. That way, hopefully everyone will get a chance to answer and participate."----------------------------------
