| | | CoMC Class #3 - Hinkypunks As you enter the room, Professor Maline has made a circle out of her benches, and beanbags, and in the middle of it is a large cage with a small creature with a light in it's hand. It seems whispy, and like it only has one leg. You notice that Ophelia's arm is in plaster, and she gestures for you to take a seat, a warm smile upon her face. Cookies and Juice are beside every seat. |

| Big Tuna | Booger | Team Men | Chris's SS!BFAM | Jules says I'm RAD | #Superman | Dustbin Ryan admired Kimberly's wand work for a moment, and then gave her this face: . He said "Haha. Very funny. I'm glad you're okay after the fiasco in the Great Hall, though."
He then raised his hand and asked, "Professor. Aren't Hinkypunks considered to be dark creatures? They certainly don't look all that dangerous. What about them makes them 'dark?'" |

First Year | GWFC/BWFC My <3 "Two points too all of you that said smoke, Hinkypunks can also be made from steam. More commonly however, it's smoke." Professor Maline said as the beam of light from her wand infuritated the Hinkypunk further. "Hinkypunks are dark creatures, you're right Ryan, two points, however they aren't dark in the way you'd expect. Hinkypunks like to live on marshes, and lead you astray. The light you see in the hand? That's the thing that can kill you. If you ever find yourself on a marsh in the dark, and you see a light, you simply don't follow it. Hinkypunks will lead you to a pool of water or mud where you'd drown." She explained, shocked by how morbid she'd made it sound. "Any reasons why? No right or wrong answers just your imagination!" She smiled at them all.

| Big Tuna | Booger | Team Men | Chris's SS!BFAM | Jules says I'm RAD | #Superman | Dustbin Ryan was so confused. Why would a cute little creature like a Hinkypunk be so demonic? He raised his hand. "I can't think of why they might do this. Do they just do it for enjoyment, or can they be employed by a wizard or witch to rid himself of someone he or she doesn't like?" |

Hogwarts RPG Name: Katelyn Quillio Fifth Year | Aquila Pacis Katelyn began to furiously scribbled everything that everyone had said, especially what Professor Maline had said. She didnt think the hinkypunks odd creatures at all. To her, every creature was beautiful in its own way, even the little flobberworms. Though she thought hinkypunks very intriguing, and was glad she had decided to come to this lesson.

Looking in to his bag Si attempted to find a book that he had got out of the library about magical creatures wondering if there was going to be any information about why Hinkypunks would do that.

Taking some notes down about smoke and steam, and following a light, Ali raised his hand again.
"Well, if you can't swim, then you'll have a problem... And if they lure you to a place where there's stuff like Grindylows, you could get pulled in."

Hogwarts RPG Name: Scarlett Lillian Travers Fifth Year | Unicorn Magic Rawr-er Gem shut her golden eyes for a moment, shoulders slumping. She wasn't quite sure why hinkypunks did such a thing, actually. Tentatively, she raised her hand. "Um... perhaps... They're lonely?" She inquired, blinking slowly a few times. "They seem almost like the living dead," she mumbled under her breath, absolutely fascinated with the creatures. "Maybe they're attracted to our skin?" She thought aloud, winding her fingers through her hair, remembering of a story of a nymph she had been told as a child.

Kimberly raised her hand "well they do this probably just to eat, all animals need food." then she lowered her eyes and blushed, her answer was a bit blunt. Then with her face still flushed she turned back to Ryan and said " thanks for your concern, I came out fine, I'm just dissapointed that my spells intended for Pierre didn't find their mark."

Hogwarts RPG Name: Jillian McGuffin Sixth Year | Gryffindor Goddess Mallory made a mental note. When in a Marsh or anyplace that's like a marsh...don't follow strange lights...got it. She wondered why Hinkypunks would do such things, luring people then drowning them. Well, it's in it's nature, but that would be a bogus answer...Then she thought of something else and raised her hand. "Well, could they possibly have some strange use for the bodies?" then she regretted her answer and shuddered at the thought. Great going, Mal! What could they possibly want with your body. Then terrible thoughts swam to her head. Oh, I think I'm going to be sick... |

Then Ryan raised his hand and asked "Professor, Hinkypunks don't actually eat humans, do they?"
He shot a look at the creature in the cave and a chill ran up his spine. |

Kimberly's face turned an even deeper pink "o..oh no you misunderstood, I was grateful you asked, not mad!" she paused and said "I agree with you, that battle was hard, an..and I'm glad you are okay as well." she suddenly turned her face down because she felt her face would not look pleasent in its current cherry red coloring.

"They cannot be employed by any witch or wizard, as they do not communicate, nor understand our language, or what we would want them to do. There isn't any particular reason as to why they would do this but entertainment seems the most likely. Two points to you." Professor Maline said, cradling her plastered arm in her lap. Quote:

"Two points to you for mentioning Grindylows however, it wouldn't matter if you could swim or not or if there were any Grindylows about, Hinkypunks will lead you to the places they know you'll die."

She shook her head, a smile upon her face. "Grindylows have no strength to do that, and they wouldn't know if they were lonely or not. To prove that Grindylows can't take your skin, watch." Professor Maline said and placed her not plastered arm in the cage, and watched as the Hinkypunk hopped over to her arm and waited quite simply for her arm to follow, not touching her. Quote:

Ophelia grinned, walking her arm around the cage for the amusement of her Hinkypunk. "So whats the muggle point of view about Hinkypunks?" She asked curiously wondering what they'd say.

I don't think I'll ever go off into a marsh alone...or ever for that matter, unless I really need to... Muggle point of view. Mallory raised her hand again "Well, since most muggles no nothing of the magical world, let alone Hinkypunks, and say they were lost in the marsh, they would definitely follow that strange light, thinking it might be some other person who might know his or her way around the marsh..." |

| Big Tuna | Booger | Team Men | Chris's SS!BFAM | Jules says I'm RAD | #Superman | Dustbin Looking at the Professor, he said "I would think that, similarly with most of the magical creatures, Muggles don't really know they exist, and merely attribute the drowning to the stupidity or accident-prone...ness of the Muggle in question who had died." He thought that was a pretty good answer. Then, he added hastily, "So, if they don't eat, how long do they live? Or, since they're made of smoke or steam, how long can they stay intact before diffusion, or in the case of the steam, osmosis, affects them?"
Then, noticing the Professor's arm again, he asked "Professor, do you want me to go get something from the hospital wing for your arm? Your look like you're in a lot of pain."

Agie raised her hand. "Well wouldn't muggles be an easy target? Since they don't know about the magical world and it's creatures, if they were lost a saw a light they would just follow it, thinking that they were doing the right thing, instead of falling into a trap."

Thinking about the question that the professor just put to the class Si smiled he was from an all wizard family he didn’t know what muggle’s would think about a floating light, but he smiled all the same at the thought of a muggle coming across a floating light

Kimberly let out a nervous giggle as the matter between her and Ryan was solved, she laughed even more when it seemed like he was trying to make the worlds biggest smile."You should see yourself right now, its pretty funny!" but she was relieved as she could feel her cheeks turning back to their normal light pink. Raising her hand she said to her professor "well the muggles wouldn't be aware of them, so when they are led by the light and perish then people count their deaths as accidents."
occ:hey i posted up in the waiting room if you want to go up there too.

"Good answer Mallory, Muggles would think it would be somewhere they could go to for saftey or possibly a friend who they were separated from. So yes easy target." Professor Maline smiled. Quote:

"Too muggles, marshes are very dangerous places.

Ophelia looked up and tilted her head to the side and thought about how to answer. "It isn't really known. Some say they just come and go as they please, others say they live for all eternity, no one really knows." She replied, "But two points for such a creative question." Quote:

Also, can you not OOC so much? Thank you.

| Big Tuna | Booger | Team Men | Chris's SS!BFAM | Jules says I'm RAD | #Superman | Dustbin Ryan beamed at the professor. He was really starting to like this class. Even if the Hinkypunks were rather...evil creatures.
Then he mused over the new question for a second. "well, considering they seem to like dark places, would a Patronus work? It kind of seems like an extreme method. Or...oooh! Is there any way to steal its light, or somehow make the light go out? Or you could...confund them, but then they just might lead someone else to their doom. |

Si thought for a moment about how to get rid of a Hinkyunks and the only thing that he could think of was with light he wasn’t sure if it was the correct answer so he put his hand up “would producing light to show you the way make then go?”
