She enunciated clearly. "You simply need to point your wand and focus really hard on that strong happy memory. Practice the incantation a few times to get the hang of it and then you may start. Those of you who can already manage it, please do encourage the younger ones and let them see how you do it. I have an activity for you too, that we'll start in a little while!"

OOC: NOW you can start trying to cast the spell. See the information in the FIRST POST of this thread regarding what your character should and should not be capable of. I don't want to see any firsties managing to cast a perfect patronus. Have your character work at it guys!

We'll resume in 24 hours. This first attempt is worth up to five points, I'd like to see some effort in your posts! Remember, I will edit or delete a post where I think you're being unreasonable about your character's skill. While its not something I'd normally do, the nature of the spell means that there SHOULD be difficulty and its okay not to master it! The point is to try. Again: read the first post of the thread.

Alyssa moved a couple of spaces away from Arya to give her more room to produce her patronus. She took out her wand but remained sitting and observed Arya to see what she would do next. Alyssa first tried pronouncing the words to the Patronus charm. 'Ecks-PEK-toh pa-TRO-num'. She let the words roll off her tongue. Alyssa didn't try to attempt to cast the charm because she first wanted to see what happened when someone actually produced one. So she just continued to sit and observe Arya while practicing the incantation to the charm. She did it silently though because she didn't want to distract Arya who would be attempting to produce her own and would need to concentrate.
