Beside the door the old message is suddenly replaced with a new one:
The object of todays lesson to to make it out of the classroom through use of your logic. You will go through a number of different rooms, each with their own riddles. The answer to each riddle should be placed on a piece of paper and pushed through the mail slot. If your answer is right then you will be allowed entry to the next room. If your answer is wrong, you will be deflected back into your current room, in other words you continue trying. The first person to the last room is excused from homework. Do not share your answers. Any person who shares an answer will be stuck in the room until the first person reaches the last room. If any serious problems occur knock hard on the wall behind you three times.
Enjoy.

Riddle 1:
We are not wizards.
We are not witches.
We are all magical beings.
At first when you see us,
You may have thoughts of fleeing.
And if you feel the need to touch us for a bit of thrill,
You will find yourself overcome with a little chill.
We all look different from each other,
Yet have a silvery glow.
What are we exactly?
You see us every day, you really ought to know.
OOC: The first person to reach the last room will also receive maximum points from the homework they were excused from. Place your answers in spoilers and NO CHEATING GUYS! I will post next to tell you if you are right or wrong, and if you are right I will give you the next riddle and it will continue on like that. Any questions just VM or PM me!
Milton was about to talk to Anya again, but suddenly the classroom slammed shut and he jumped a tiny bit. Well, okay then. Milton peered over the heads of his classmates and watched the door disappear just to be replaced by a new one. So they had to solve a riddle? That was easy. Ravenclaws had to solve riddles all the time to get into their common rooms.
After reading the riddle once over, Milton had the answer already. He scribbled down his answer on the parchment, pushed his way through the crowd and slipped his answer in through the mail slot.
