Default Potions Laboratory



A disused room next to the potions classroom has been converted into a potions laboratory. There are several large workstations available, complete with stands and burners for standard size 2 cauldrons and plenty of room to work.

Along the walls at the sides of the room are additional stations holding alembics, distillation trains, calcination equipment, Florence flasks, a large jar of clean glass stirring rods, funnels, empty jars and more -- in short, all the equipment a potioneer would need to do his or her work.

Along the back wall of the class are jars and bottles containing a host of standard potions ingredients. Each container is marked clearly with a parchment label bearing the details of its contents (including the date of expiration), written in Professor Kazimeriz's shaky but legible hand. Several of the larger jars house foul-looking ingredients: there is one jar that appears to be filled with pickled toads, another houses what appear to be large eyeballs from some creature in pale blue syrup, and still others seem to contain the visceral organs of animals - rat spleens, newt tails (which are still wriggling in the jar), and whole flobberworms. One jar of some sort of greenish sap is bubbling lazily, and another opaque bottle keeps trembling, clinking against the others.

There is also a large cabinet that has been triple-locked and charmed. Through the unbreakable glass front of the cabinet, you can see vials, jars, bottles of various size, shape and contents. These are the Professor's private stores. You must receive assistance from the professor to access these ingredients, as all the poisons, rare items like unicorn parts and truly dangerous ingredients in the lab -- including dangerous potions such as veritaserum and amortentia-- are housed in this cabinet.

There is a large chalkboard at the front of the classroom near the Professor's sturdy mahogany desk. On it reads this note:

Welcome to the open studio potions lab. This is a supervised independent studies lab, where you may work on personal projects as well as practice potions for your class assessments, OWLS and NEWTS. Please obey the following rules while in this lab:
  • SAFETY FIRST. Practice common sense and good safety practices at all times while in this lab. Remember that other potions are being brewed around you and exercise caution at all times.
  • WHEN IN DOUBT, AS: If you have any question in your mind about the safety or sanity of what you are planning, please bring your intended potion plan to the professor for assstance. The professor reserves the right to end any experiment at his discretion, especially if it is unsafe or irresponsible.
  • CLEAN UP AFTER YOURSELF. The house elves are not your personal slaves, and it is neither their responsibility nor mine to clean up after you. If you fail to clean up your workstation on departure, you will receive a most unpleasant detention.
  • HAVE A PLAN and WORK AT YOUR OWN LEVEL. Creativity is definitely encouraged in this lab, but please do not just slap ingredients together without knowing the magical theory behind what you are doing. I expect all students to work at their level and if you have questions, please ask the professor. I am always present when this lab is open.
  • WASTE NOT, WANT NOT. Many of the ingredients in this lab are quite costly. Use them with discretion.
  • DANGEROUS INGREDIENTS: Many of the more dangerous or expensive ingredients in the lab are in the professor's private stores. On approval, the professor will obtain any of the necessary dangerous ingredients from the storage cabinet for your use.
  • COMPOUND POTIONS: Only NEWT levels students with prior approval from the professor may work on compound potions in this lab, to ensure that you properly understand the magical theory behind them. If you are unsure if you are attempting a compound potion, please ask. Those who are found to be in violation of this or any rule will be subject to disciplinary action.
ooc notes: Come on in and get creative! This is an independent lab, NOT potions class... this is the place to let your character practice potions, do labwork, and experiment. For the purposes of the RP please presume that Professor Kazimeriz is in the room at all times unless I specify otherwise. Obviously, I am not really here at all times, but I will be monitoring this thread closely throughout the term and will do my best to respond to posts directed toward Professor Kazimeriz quickly and efficiently.

Please RP responsibly! I'm cool OOC with potions-gone-wrong-RPs (accidentally blowing up cauldrons and such-- stuff happens in a lab!) but just make sure that you are ready to face the consequences IC for any actions you take or mistakes your charrie makes. For instance, if you have a vat of lethal poison explode all over you, it is quite possible your character WILL die, and if you are irresponsible IC, expect Kazimeriz to react accordingly. Please exercise good sense and remember to follow the site rules at all times.

Also, if your character is addressing the professor or needs attention, please put PROFESSOR KAZIMERIZ in your subject line for your post, just so I don't accidentally miss it.

If you have any questions, please PM me at XanaSnape. Oh... and most important: HAVE FUN! ~Xana~

Default Professor Kazimeriz, over here! PROFESSOR KAZIMERIZ
PHILOMATH ❅ not one atom, but two ♪ ♪ made of starstuff ❅ def main():

If she hadn't persuaded herself to put "Plan: Revival" into motion, there was no way Rachel would be caught dead down here this early in the term. She was in her sixth year, for Merlin's sake - sixth years had a calming down period; it was the whole point!

But, as it were, the Ravenclaw had needed a potion. Fast. Trouble was - she had no idea if such a potion existed and if on did, how to brew it. And if one DIDN'T it was time to get her old OWL brain back in gear and pluck up the courage to ask Kazimeriz for suggestions.

As she stepped into the potions lab, she noticed happily that the place was empty except for the Professor, of course. Shooting a smile at him, Rachel picked a spot at the back of the lab and began setting up, making sure that she had her gloves, goggles, wand and any other safety thing near at hand. You never know what you might get brewing a potion.

Although THIS sort of potion might not be so hazardous...

"Professor, sir, I was wondering if you could help me out with something," she began, addressing the ancient senior Professor as she walked towards him. I should have gone to the library instead... "You see - I am having trouble sleeping at night and therefore I look terrible in the morning so I, er, frequently have to apply a Glamour charm to keep myself presentable," this was SO weird, "I was wondering if there was a potion that I could take each morning instead of using the charm every few hours," Rachel finished off, extremely embarrassed but satisfied nevertheless.

Sure, she seemed just a tad girly but there were MUCH worse at this school... "Oh, and, how does one brew an effective Dreamless Sleep potion?" she added, figuring that that type of potion might be useful in the future.

Thomas entered the laboratory slowly, trying not to knock anything down. He bought a knew book in Diagon Alley about potions. He wanted to try a potion which is not too hard but not too simple. e always got scared when he did a potion because he thought that the potion will explode on him all the time. "He walked to the Potions teacher and said shyly,"Er... Excuse me, sir, Professor Kazimerez, do you know a suitable potion for a second or third?"

Ohmegosh!

Blake couldn't believe where he found himself standing and to his amazement, this was exactly the place he wanted to be at. Yes, he was in search of help.

Rapping at the door lightly, Blake entered the cold Laboratory in hopes of brewing a potion which might actually HELP me. His last experience in making a potion turned out to be a total disaster and poor Blakey ended up donning a bright blue coloration all over his pretty skin for days, sigh. This was one of the reason why this particular subject scared the wits out of him.

But this shall end soon since he WILL, no.. he MUST try and seek a professional's help, someone experienced and discerning and who will be better than the Hogwarts Potion's teacher, Professor Kazmer..err no what was the name again? Gosh it was one tough name to remember, umm lets got with Professor Kaz. Yup that's better.

His robe billowed out behind him as he walked over to the Professor's desk. Oh great! Two peeps were already asking for his assistance, meh. Hope he wouldn't mind a third dunderhead, sigh.

"Good day Professor, Ka-- mer..err sorry." He muttered and shot a sheepish glance at the two students, oh crap. Would he mind if Blake addressed him by his nickname? Panic.panic.panic "Professor Kaz, I am Blake Wright, Fourth year, transfer student." He couldn't look straight into the man's eyes, eep. Looking up, down, right and left, his eyes finally fell on the Professor's face, "Sir, I need err a little help b-but I can wait till you get things sorted out for these two." He said hesitantly and pointed at the two students who stood next to him. While he waited for the Professor's reply, it dawned upon him that he was undoubtedly the Professor who made those two boys dance at the start of the term feast. Crap, crap crap... oh God, Blake felt a strong urge to simply vanish into thin air or run the hell out of here!!!

Kazimeriz smiled at the fatigued girl. "It does seem that a dreamless sleep potion would be just what you need. There are quite a few formulations available to you, but I think the most basic formulation would be best..." He summoned a book from the library shelves in the back of the room.

Kazimeriz nodded. "I have just the thing for you. You will help this young lady with a basic dreamless sleep potion. It should not be too difficult for your year." He placed the book on the table, open to a leaf showing the exact steps and ingredients for Borage's Basic Bedtime Bubbly. "Do be careful; the erumpent horn must be measured exactly or you risk exploding the whole thing. I shall be back to check on you." He smiled at them and then turned to the other student.

"Yes? What assistance do you need today, Mr. Wright?" Kazimeriz asked pleasantly. He was in a fairly good mood at the moment, and was looking forward to visitors at tea.

Theo entered the Potions lab. He wanted to practice one of the potions that the nice Slug and Jiggers lady gave him. It would be hard but he would get through it. He carried his potions kit with him. A simple shrinking solution. He should be able to do that by now. It was a third year potion. And he was a forth year.

He found an empty desk and took a seat at it. He pulled out his cauldron and the book. He also took out his potions book. He placed the books in front of him and chose the ingredients. He took a deep breath and pulled out his wand, lighting the cauldron and boiling some water.

Rachel almost sighed in relief as Kazimeriz - who seemed to be in a pretty good mood - didn't deem that she was a brainless girl who's brain was filled with sawdust. Obviously, he couldn't say that but it was the gene- Wait. COULD he say that?

. . .

Pushing that thought to the back of her head, Rachel made to take the book when someone else came to ask the Professor something. Content to wait - after all, she wasn't in need of the potion right now although she wouldn't mind a quick nap - she leaned against the table and looked down at her old, slightly beaten shoes... She needed new ones.

Should she get a little heel this time? Just a tiny one that will make her taller yet will still be comforta- WHAT?! Rachel's eyes widened as she looked up to see Kazimeriz telling a SECOND year that he should her HER make the potion. Sure, the kid was a Ravenclaw - but SO WAS SHE. A sixth year did NOT need a second year's help. Hmphf.

"Of course, Professor," she nodded innocently and, taking the book from the table, instantly made her way back to her cauldron. "Come.. Er, kid," she told the second year who's name she couldn't quite recall and began setting up for the brewing.

"Aguamenti," she murmured as she waved her wand and a stream of water flew out of the tip and into the awaiting cauldron. "Right - listen up," she began as soon as the Professor was out of earshot. "We are going to do this by the book - safely, accurately and correctly. No mucking around, no 'experimenting," Rachel made small air quotes as she said that, "and if you so much as think about doing something funny I'll... I'll... Report you to Professor Kazimeriz!" she finished with a flourish, assured that the young Ravenclaw will probably do no such thing when faced with THAT big a punishment.

As went to wash her hands in a nearby sink, Rachel felt a twinge of guilt. Yes, she was grumpy and yes, she didn't need unnecessary distractions and sure, she was slightly offended that Kazimeriz thought so little of her potion-making; but she hadn't needed to take that all out on the kid.

When did SHE turn into Willow Kovak, version 2.0?

Kazimeriz noticed the boy enter the lab. "Good afternoon, Mr. Newtington. Do let me know if you need any assistance." He told the boy, his demeanor calm and almost charitable.

"Indeed; you are always welcome to come in and work on independent projects. Why not start this afternoon? We have two students beginning work on a dreamless sleep potion-- a very basic one, Borage's Basic Bedtime Bubbly. You may join them if you like." He gestured to where the girl and boy had started to set up their cauldron.

Thomas listen well to the 'wonderful' Ravenclaw prefect but he tried to ignore her because she was really strict, and he hates strict people especially if they're still 'young' . So he needs to keep a low profile. "Firstly I'll introduce myself, my name is Thomas and secondly, I never experiment and I try not to mess things up okay. Keep that in mind," he said following her to the cauldron. He looked at her filling up the cauldron with water with water. He looked at the book and began reading the potion. "So what ever your name is what do we do know?" he asked her thinking what is her real name.

Mina looked around and saw some of the tables were taken but found an empty workstation. Pulling out her textbook, she settled in to the chair and started going though the text. This was the first opportunity for her to get to the potions laboratory and she was ready to work on a few things she had found in the text. It had been weeks since she had even seen a cauldron, let alone a proper laboratory and she was thrill to get to work. Perhaps if she was able to make a proper potion, she would feel that sense of control in her life again. "A memory potions? Or maybe a truth potion for when she returned home on holiday." she thought to herself.

Looking around the room again, she noticed most of the students present were older. Perhaps she should start small and not completely embarrass herself.

Keep that in mind," he said following her to the cauldron. He looked at her filling up the cauldron with water with water. He looked at the book and began reading the potion. "So what ever your name is what do we do know?" he asked her thinking what is her real name.
Coming back from the sink, Rachel listened as the second year introduced himself. "Oh yeah - right, Thomas... Thomas Turner, no? We met before," she nodded as the name came back to her. Opening the book at the correct page, the sixth year listened with pursed lips as Thomas talked. Truth be told, he was being slightly rude but she figured she kind of deserved it.

Ugh - SHE was the one with the Revival Plan and she needed to worry about second years who didn't seem to know their Prefect's name or how to brew a potion. And HE was supposed to help HER. Guh.

"I'm Rachel Rider," she said, forcing a sweet smile upon her face as she began taking out ingredients according to the book. "And here's what needs to be done:
You are going to measure an exact amount of erumpent horns and put it in here,"
she passed him a small bowl, just in case he thought that the book said kilograms and not grams, "And after you're absolutely sure that it's the right amount you will wash your hands and the work desk and prepare to crush these moonstones," she finished up and put the stones she had acquired next to the erumpent horns along with another bowl. "Don't get them mixed up, please," she added in a mildly nice tone, trying to be as kind to him as possible.

After Rachel finished telling him what to do, she set out to do her own bit of the work. Picking up a flask, she poured into it the Hellebore syrup she had in her kit - making sure that she was exact since this syrup could be the difference between a comfortable sleep to a never ending one. "Right," she mumbled to herself as she put the flask down after she had finished. Picking up her knife, she grabbed the sopophorous beans and crushed them with the side of the blade, smiling with satisfaction as they let out a large quantity of juice.

Ok, so Flask 1 - Hellebore... Flask 2 - Sopophrous beans... Bowl 3 - Erumpent horns... Bowl 4 - Moonstones... The sixth year marked each of the containers before looking back at the book for anything she might have missed.

Ooh - right. Valerian. "Er... Do you want to cut these up?" she asked suddenly, turning to Thomas with the herb. True, she had given him the important task of measuring the quantity of erumpent horns but she could let him do this too. He was a Ravenclaw after all - and from what she had observed, they were usually eager to help.

Thomas walked towards the sink to wash his hands when the sixth year brought the ingredients to the large table and but the ingredients into smaller flasks. He looked at the moonstones and at the erumpent horns. He patted her on the shoulder and asked her, "Er yeah... Can you just help me with erumpent horns because I am really terrible in measuring but I can crush the moonstones for know," he said beginning to crush a few moonstones, "Oh and how many moonstones should I crush?" he asked her hoping he didn't sound stupid. Rachel asked him if he wanted to cut the herb? he thought for a moment about the question and answered her, "Erm.. Okay but just as long this herb wouldn't give me a rash or something," he hoped that he wouldn't need to were those horrible gloves to cut the herb.

Gulping, as the Professor turned to him, Blake tightened the grip of his balled fist.

"Afraid of potions?" he smirked a little. "Well, why do you think that might be?" He tried to remember this student from the previous marking period. He simply could not recall him, which told him he had either been a transfer or one of the less-than-successful students in his class...of which there were many.

"Indeed I do. What level work are you prepared to do, and is there anything that interests you in particular, such as mood altering potions, transfigurational potions, or state-changing potions?" he asked the young girl curiously.

"Just first year stuff is fine. Anything simple, I'm just trying to get used to making potions." Nicoletta replied

Kazimeriz nodded. "Very well. A simple boil-cure potion should suffice; it is a simple potion that is well suited to getting acclimated in potion making processes." He summoned a copy of Magical Drafts and Potions by A. Jiggers, opening it up to the page on Boil Cure Potion.

"Please let me know if you need assistance. Follow all instructions in detail and do not forget to use protective gloves." he said, nodding to the girl. "You will find all the necessary ingredients in the standard ingredients cabinets. See to it that you clean up after yourself."

"Yes sir" she replied, anxious to get started. She pulled on her gloves and walked towards the cabinet. She grabed her supplies and took a seat at one of the tables. The potion didn't look too difficult, she just had to remember to put the porcupine quills in after she had taken the cauldron off the fire. She got started, working swiftly and being careful to follow the directions exactly as they were written. As soon as the potion had obtained the last stage described she put her materials away and started to clean up. Once she was sure nothing would explode, Nicoletta took her gloves off.

He... was PATTING her. Ok, this kid was slightly odd and this time she seriously meant it. What was it with these younger Ravenclaws?! They'll give the house a bad name!

Er, right. Back to potions.

Shaking herself slightly, Rachel averted her gaze from where his hands had touched her shoulder and focused on what the kid was saying. "Sure - although if you want to do well in Potions, measuring is the basics of all. Can't do that - can't do potions, I'm afraid," she said pleasantly as she took the horns away from him and began weighing the bits. If she messed up, it would be her health at stake as opposed to her grade, when in class.

Rachel chuckled as she realised that she could not easily and with a whole heart choose which one was more important. "Crush the amount I put out," the sixth year pointed towards the small pile next to him as she fiddled with the horns, trying to get the exact amount.

"It won't - but if you tend to get rashes, wear your gloves; you're supposed to be wearing them anyway," she said, holding up her own hands to show him that she was indeed wearing gloves.

Finishing up with the erumpent horns, she plopped them in the marked bowl and turned back to Turner. "Right, so when you finish with that start the fire underneath the cauldron and let me know when it's reached boiling," she told him as she took off her gloves, picked up a quill and wrote down exactly what they were doing.

It wasn't necessary since the book they were using would always be available, yet Rachel always preferred following her own handwriting.

Thomas began crushing the moonstones that the prefect placed on the table. He took her 'advice' and put on the terrible gloves. The gloves were terribly uncomfortable and they look like someone vomited on them because, they were browny green. After he finished crushing the moonstones he looked at the potion to see if it was beginning to boil but the water didn't even move.

He turned his head towards the Valerian leaves and began cutting and measuring them. Every minute he turned his head at the potion to see if it began boiling. As he finished cutting the leaves he saw that the potion was bubbling which probably means that it was boiling. "Um.. Rachel I think the potion is boiling," he said looking back at her.

Professor Kazimeriz turned to the student. "This lab is for practice of your potions work, and you may certainly do any of the first-year approved simple potions if you desire." He hesitated. "I do not believe we have met properly. What is your name, child?"
