SPOILER!!: question from before

[QUOTE=StarShine;11506096]
"It isn't the exact fire, yes," he announced to the class, "but it is fire. If we didn't make sure it was at a warm temperature for us and add a certain ingredient," he smirked nastily, because they weren't going to like it, "it would burn like every normal fire does. Worry not, though. The salamander blood in it takes care of our mouth, and that one makes sure nothing catches on fire. We won't feel pain, because there won't be any scars to begin with. When breathed on skin, it will tickle and be hot enough to warm you up in a cold winter day. Because only then it makes sense: to harm someone with it, say, in a duel, you would be have to be harmed too, because it is coming off you. The blood doesn't let scars to happen, but it doesn't lower the heat in your mouth either." He nearly bounced on his feet. He was curious how many would make 'eeeeew I'm not drinking that,' faces.

"Those who said we don't have the same body parts were correct too, obviously. That's why, this potion is not to be drunk." Did everyone note that? Because he wasn't repeating anything. "You won't die, though, if you drink it unless you're a sissy who can't handle a bit of pain." Were they? He eyed them. He forgot to say what it would do, though.

Hmm.

"So, this is like those things muggles use, as some of you have mentioned. Because we keep it in our mouth, we actually ignite that. So, we won't transform our body into a dragon's. We can breathe fire until we run out of the potion.

"If this isn't an offensive potion, why do you think it was invented? Where can we use it?"
Asher nodded of course there was no way that it was real fire. Well it was but it wasn't hot only warm. Right? So there was no chance of burning his pretty face off. What was the special indigent? Salamander blood? Did he say salamander blood? Asher chuckled. Bring it. He didn't mind salamander blood, the school in Italy last term was much worse.

Asher laughed again at his 'if your not a sissy who can't handle a bit of pain.' The Professor was turning out to be one that he was really going to like so far. He wondered though what would happen if someone did drink it. Maybe he'd try it out on some first year. Just to see what would happen. Maybe, maybe not.

Why would this potion be offensive in the first place? He shrugged. As for the other questions? Asher raise his hand. "For Entertainment reasons. I'd tell my nieces and nephew some pretty cool dragon bedtime stories with something like that."

The tribe that invented it doesn't have a name or origin in the records, but Persians provide us with a logical and satisfying story.

"The potion is used by the tribe in the holy rituels to honour the dragons, because they were their gods. As I've already said, it has salamander blood in it that is an ingredient used to cure, but the tribe didn't know it then. They thought it was the holy dragon spirit that cured them, and the recipe was their most prized possession. Just imagine, the dragons are even more impossible to tame in those days, and a potion that enables them to breathe fire like them cures them, warms them up on cold winter days and because it is fire, scares off other animals. It is still a handy potion out in the wild, and for us modern people, the most important property is the 'curing'. It is easy to brew and you will recover from flu in less than a day. It is also good for scars and light illnesses like flu.

"As for what happens if you drink it, I saw some enthusiastic students among you to demonstrate." His eyes SHONE. "Why don't we give them a chance after we are done with brewing?"

He smirked again and tapped his wand at the board for the ingredients to appear.

• 3 goose feathers (chopped WELL that they look like powder)
• 5 centimetre square of parasites (mycosis fungus)
• Roughly 2 centimetre square fire-crab shell (prepared)
• One fire slug
• 8 drops of salamander blood
• Some flobberworm mucus (depends on how much rigidity one wants)

"The feathers and fire-crab shells are already prepared and are on my desk, where you can also get a culture of fungus." Mycosis fungus. Should he warn them, in case they didn't know what it was? During brewing, maybe. "The size of the shell depends on how much you want to brew. We don't want to spend all Hogwarts money, so we are keeping them small." He EYED them. No playing around with them, okay?

"Only the fire-crab shell part is modernised. They used to use a plant for that, but it is extinct now due to the wars that destroyed its habitat." He sighed dramatically. "But the effect is the same, so let's start brewing.

"Fill your cauldron 1/3 with water, please, and do not light a fire undernearth.

"Any questions, in the meantime?"[/COLOR]

He listened to the history of the potion. That was pretty cool. Something like that had been around so long. Ancient tribes, holy runes. Sounds fun. As for trying the potion? He would so do it. As long as the Professor was kidding about the bit of pain and it actually turned out to be a lot of pain. He could only handle so much. He copied down what was written on the board onto his notebook.

SPOILER!!: Notes

He pulled out his cauldron and cleaned it with a "Scourgify." and placed it on top of the desk. Now to add the water, "Aguamenti." He filled it 1/3 of the way. "Finite." He didn't light the fire yet. He waited for the next instructions.
