Nick packed up the book and headed for dinner since he didn't feel like skipping out on the delicious food. For him it was a normal meal but for the teachers is was an odd situation as Dumbledore questioned the teachers who had Nick in class today how he fared. Madam Hooch and professor Sinistra both explained their observations of him with Madam Hooch in particular mentioning that he showed an...
2023-05-23 16:55:16 +0000 UTC View PostNick wasn't aware that he had entered Voldemort's crosshairs as he was devouring the last little bit of information in the normal book of magical fundamentals. He closed the book with a frown at the last piece information that the book discussed. The topic was on where the magic wizards cast came from and it was very unhelpful to say the least. See the book said that no one actually knew for su...
2023-05-23 16:53:24 +0000 UTC View PostAlex definitely had the newborn elders attention as the orange glowing eyes were locked on him. Zain easily got under the huge monster and made a nuisance of himself with his longsword leaving gashes on the elders underbelly. Xeno jiiva went to deal with the annoying thing stinging it's belly only for a purplish glowing orb the size of a car smash into it and explode. Unbearably high heat and p...
2023-05-23 16:49:25 +0000 UTC View PostHis eyes stopped for an instant longer than normal on Nick and Harry especially when they entered the room and found their seats. "W-welcome t-to defense a-against the d-dark arts , I am Quirinus Quirrell. P-please turn t-to page 12 of y-your textbook." He said stuttering the entire time. 'I don't think he realizes that he's over playing his part. Natural stutters only happen at the start of se...
2023-05-22 16:28:06 +0000 UTC View PostThe implications of what just happened with Malfoy wasn't lost on Nick but rather made him decisively shut down any thoughts of playing quidditch. He had already shown that he was very talented and didn't need to deal with the problems that came from the scouts watching the games. Yes professional quidditch scouts regularly sat in on the games at Hogwarts in hope of uncovering talents to be rec...
2023-05-22 16:26:40 +0000 UTC View PostNick found it odd that the first lesson on flying actually included it but he wasn't going to complain. "Welcome to flying class , I am Rolanda Hooch the referee of quidditch here at Hogwarts outside of this class. Today we will be learning proper form for mounting and riding brooms so pay attention and do exactly as I say. First stand next to one of the brooms laid out on the ground with it on...
2023-05-21 16:03:04 +0000 UTC View PostNick looked into this piece of information further and learned that one of the species that had been effected the most by wizards was actually Thestrals. Apparently a long time ago the skeletal horse creatures were not only not invisible to most people but even actively wanted to be seen. They actively showed up near those who were dying and would apparently cry out at the moment of that person...
2023-05-21 16:01:21 +0000 UTC View Post'Whatever it is that you are thinking is probably both true or possible yes.' Alex said pulling the man out of his thoughts. "I'm sorry , it's just the implications of what you've said are terrifying to say the least." the man said honestly. 'Which part , the fact I have the potential to be the most powerful creature to ever exist on this world or that with enough time I'll be unstoppable?' Ale...
2023-05-21 15:57:57 +0000 UTC View Post"We're flattered you think so but we are just a couple pranksters is all." the twin on nicks right said depreciatively. Nick slapped him on the back of the head getting an astonished look in exchange. "Don't you bloody lie to me , you two create prank item after prank item from your merlin damned imaginations like anyone without some damn good talent in the matter could even hope to do such a t...
2023-05-20 22:15:30 +0000 UTC View PostNick hung out with Harry , Tracy and Daphne during the free period until dinner mostly talking about the version of the Lumos charm Nick taught them. "You mean that you have more than just this one version?" Tracy asked in disbelief. Nick shrugged "It's a really simple charm with a whole bunch of possible uses." he said honestly. "Which is your favorite variation so far?" she asked curiously. "...
2023-05-20 20:12:20 +0000 UTC View PostAlex didn't need to wait long as a couple days later the admiral came to fetch Zain and Alex to see the wanderer(male). The wyverian had apparently insisted on them coming with him to see whatever he had discovered. 'Did you tell him that I've changed a lot since the last time he saw me?' Alex asked the admiral who froze. "When was that again exactly?" the man asked with a bad feeling. 'A bit b...
2023-05-20 17:02:39 +0000 UTC View PostThe trip to the great hall was smooth after that for everyone since Flitwick was with the students. Like before Daphne and Tracy split away from Nick and Harry and sat at the Slytherin table for lunch while this time Hermione sat across from Nick in a huff. "How did you do it?" she asked unhappily. Nick raised and eyebrow at the question before grabbing a ham and cheese sandwich from a nearby p...
2023-05-20 01:07:11 +0000 UTC View PostNick briefly sensed the magic near Neville and frowned as he felt the blatant rejection the wand in his hand was showing the boy. He cut off his magical sense and approached Neville seriously "Is that a legacy wand?" he asked sternly. "Y-yes it was my da's" Neville stuttered out nervously and Nick sighed. "The wand is sabotaging you , both your pronunciation and wand movements are correct but t...
2023-05-19 23:09:31 +0000 UTC View PostFlitwick waved his wand once he got near Nick causing a silencing charm around them to isolate their conversation. This wasn't strictly necessary but hearing the word "Lumos" over and over while you were talking is plain distracting. "Your choice of wording for the spell was rather on the nose , no? I am not complaining since the results spoke for themselves but it does stoke my curiosity." Fli...
2023-05-19 20:00:11 +0000 UTC View Post"This is most troubling indeed." the commander said seriously and the admiral agreed. "Even after all this time Sid's only gotten a quarter of the amount of the crystals he needs. That stuffs not easy to get you know." the man said seriously. 'I suppose I could offer much more money to try and get the amount I need in one lump sum but we may need to wait quite awhile if I take that route.' Alex...
2023-05-19 17:56:48 +0000 UTC View PostFinally the history of magic class ended and every student in the class including Hermione was reinvigorated as they moved on to the first part of the Charms lesson for the day. Harry and Nick met up with Tracy and Daphne on the way to the class since they had muggle studies instead of history of magic in their first period. "The kitchen was right where you said it was!" Tracy said in excitemen...
2023-05-18 16:02:23 +0000 UTC View PostThe book did mention however that some languages simply made spell work easier or more powerful , such as Latin being rather on point for spell making leaving it as the current best option. 'Well outside elvish it seems , but I'll keep that to myself for now.' Nick thought after reading that piece of information. There were a few other interesting nuggets of information that Nick found in the h...
2023-05-18 16:01:06 +0000 UTC View Post'I'm home.' Alex said with a bowed head to hide his teary eyes. "You had all of us quite worried you know." the commander said seriously. "What happened sid?" he asked in the same manner. "Yeah your explanation didn't exactly give us a lot of details to work with." the admiral said helplessly. 'I have no problem telling you , but perhaps we should take this conversation over to a spot I'm not s...
2023-05-18 15:58:26 +0000 UTC View PostFlitwick reluctantly cut the conversation short when Nick reached Harry on the Gryffindor long table. The boy who lived had saved him a spot and so the small professor could only promise to continue this conversation at a different time before joining the other teachers at their table with a wide smile. "It would seem you have discovered the boy's knowledge of ring making Filius." Dumbledore sa...
2023-05-18 01:39:27 +0000 UTC View PostNick got lucky and found a medium sized classroom two doors away from the charms classroom that was filled with unused desks. Nick checked the room thoroughly to make sure there weren't any nasty hidden things in it before nodding contentedly. He pointed his wand at the desk nearest him and spoke "WINGARDIUM LEVIOSA!" and the desk rose up at which point he pointed the wand at one desk after ano...
2023-05-17 16:27:49 +0000 UTC View PostClass started right at 1 and no one was late surprisingly enough , though Neville did cut it close. "Welcome back to herbology children , where I will show you the wonderous world of plants! Be warned though that magical plants are far different than those mundane ones and will punish you if you aren't careful." Professor sprout said without losing her smile at all. "Today we will start you out...
2023-05-17 16:25:17 +0000 UTC View PostFinding octopi in choppy water was a bit of a chore for Alex as the things were constantly hiding and he needed to ferret them out one by one. It was worth it though as when he maxed out the [enhanced heart] trait he not only was able to contain the energy in his body safely but even went a step further to be only slightly uncomfortable with it. The storm finally ended and peace finally returne...
2023-05-17 16:20:22 +0000 UTC View Post"Now that's quite the rude thing to say Ron , there's nothing slimy about these two girls." Nick said calmly which tipped Harry off that something was wrong. Nick was a joking and grinning individual most of the time and he only spoke calmly when he was angered. It was terrifying to Harry as he understood getting loud and unreasonable when angry but going calm instead sent chills down his spine...
2023-05-16 21:25:23 +0000 UTC View PostThe group chatted about themselves quietly as they waited for the first step of the potion to finish. Nick explained about his amnesia and how he didn't actually care if he actually was a muggleborn or not which is why he had chosen not to take the Gringotts test. "You aren't even a little curious , for all you know you could be the long lost descendant of merlin or something." Tracy said not u...
2023-05-16 19:53:01 +0000 UTC View PostAlex felt the intense itch that accompanied the healing of his body as he flew and he contemplated his situation. 'I will be able to bring my aura under control with enough time but my new power is an entirely different problem. I didn't realize it until now since it hadn't been a problem but my body was not designed to contain so much power at once. Right now I am much like a balloon that is o...
2023-05-16 18:40:18 +0000 UTC View Post"You are here to learn the subtle science and exact art of potion making" he began but even speaking barely louder than a whisper everyone heard him clearly. "as there is little foolish wand-waving here , many of you will hardly believe this is magic. I don't expect you will really understand the beauty of the softly simmering cauldron with it's shimmering fumes , the delicate power of liquids ...
2023-05-15 21:13:56 +0000 UTC View PostNick didn't mind the schedule as it was perfectly reasonable and even gave them plenty of free time. Most of the other first years in Gryffindor bellyached about having potions with Slytherin first thing on their first day. "You know if you just focus on your potions you should be fine right?" Nick said loudly so everyone could hear him. "Everyone says Snape hates us Gryffindor's though!" Seamu...
2023-05-15 19:42:30 +0000 UTC View PostIt took Alex three weeks but he finally raised the [electrosis] trait to T6 and so it was finally time for him to unlock the thunder element. Just like when he unlocked his fire element Alex flew far out into the sea as well as high above the water and confirmed his choice. Immediately he knew that he had very much miscalculated. The new element didn't fuse with the two basic elemental abilitie...
2023-05-15 17:37:57 +0000 UTC View PostNick wanted to pull his hair out in frustration when he saw the organization that the library had , which is to say basically none. There was once a semblance of order to the library but clearly the past generations of librarians gave up on it as Nick found fifth year books in the second year area and even a book on potions in the charms section. This didn't even begin to go into the books he f...
2023-05-15 01:28:28 +0000 UTC View PostNick stopped forcing the issue and held the wall for a moment as a wave of vertigo hit him. Once the world stopped spinning he tentatively released the wall and felt his lip where he found a small amount of blood. "NEN!"(Water) he said calmly in elvish while pushing his wand forward causing a small orb of pure water to appear in the air. With a careful movement of his wand Nick moved the orb of...
