Default Wandlore Seminar

Ira Banner wasn't exactly PLEASED to be here. He was alright with the WAND part of it all, but the CHILDREN part? Circe save him. He KNEW Bryce thought it was hilarious too, he bloody knew that his boss was probably having a right old chortle about it. It was good publicity for his upcoming book and everything, but Ira wasn't writing for PEOPLE, he was writing for WANDS.

This classroom set up wasn't ideal either, but never mind, they’d not be stuck in here for too long because there was a field trip in order. Pre-approved, and Ollivanders-sponsored. Bryce was clearly just SO generous and it hadn't a thing to do with casually putting Ira into what was probably the LEAST COMFORTABLE SITUATION HE COULD POSSIBLY BE IN JUST FOR FOR KICKS. Oh no. Couldn’t be that. He'd have to talk to children who thought they knew him. Merlin.

Just breathe, Banner.

He set up the room as sparsely and uncomfortably as possible. There were chairs and desks. Not an ounce of personality or comfort or warmth. A long chalkboard at the front of the room, which had writing on it because Ira had no intention of saying anything to any of these kids until he absolutely had to. If they could follow instructions, that wouldn't be a problem.

Now just to wait. In silence. Ira stood there leaning against the chalkboard, arms crossed over his chest, with a sour glare on his face as he eyed the door. Here they come.

OOC: Hi guys! Welcome to your first seminar of the term! It’s all about wandlore and includes a field trip for which your characters would have been required to get a permission slip signed from parents or guardians. No permission slip = no field trip, no exceptions. If you don't want your character to go on the field trip that is fine, they'll get a task to do in class, but will not be eligible for full points, because Ira doesn't really care about being fair or whatever.

When you post your character arriving, placing the permission slip on their desk, and filling out Ira’s little questionnaire, I’ll add your character’s name to this first post. This first post will be edited throughout the seminar with information and links as needed with the aim of making it easier to jump in whenever you want to and join in from the most recent set of instructions. Please no catch up posts, just pretend you were there all along, or Ira will give you funny looks. Other than that, general class rules apply and have fun! Feel free to nudge me with any questions.

_______________________

Seminar progression:
Post 1: Starting early, your character can still arrive. Please fill out the permission slip and the little wand questionnaire here in this first post if you're joining in. You'll be added to this list too!
How many standard wand woods does Ollivanders use, and name some of them

Post 2: Please fill out the permission slip and the little wand questionnaire here in this first post if you're joining in. Ira lists all the woods and cores used at Ollivanders and talks a bit about finding a balance between them, and the difficulty involved
Any questions about woods and cores before moving on

Post 3: Please fill out the permission slip and the little wand questionnaire here in this first post if you're joining in. Ira answers some questions then says some stuff. Its interesting but you don't have to read/listen. Also, guess which cores to harvest
Guess the cores, and tell me why you think that is what you'll all be trying to harvest.

Post 4: Please fill out the permission slip and the little wand questionnaire here in this first post if you're joining in. Ira hints here what the cores might be, and consider where in the world we are yes?
Still guessing two of the cores, and tell me why you think that is what you'll all be trying to harvest.... one is guessed correctly: Dittany Stalk.

Post 5: Please fill out the permission slip and the little wand questionnaire here in this first post if you're joining in. Tell us things about the three cores, it doesn't have to be much, anything is good depending what your character knows.
All three guessed correctly:, Augurey Feather, Kelpie Bulrushes, Dittany Stalk. What do you know about Augureys, Kelpies, and Dittany?

Post 6: Please fill out the permission slip and the little wand questionnaire here in this first post if you're joining in. There's a list of the three cores and their properties here, and Ira wants people to say stuff about Wiggentrees and harvesting wood for Runes
For those of you who are familiar with the Study of Ancient Runes, you may have some idea of how one might best harvest wand wood, its similar to how you choose wood for making a rune set. Please, tell the class if you have any knowledge about this method of gathering magical wood, and if you don't know, then tell the class what you know about Rowan, and about Wiggentrees?

Post 7: Please fill out the permission slip and the little wand questionnaire here in this first post if you're joining in.There is more information about Rowans/Wiggentrees, and about how to harvest the cores, and the wood in this post. Your charrie should probably take a few notes.
Find a partner/small group and prepare for the portkey

Post 8: Portkey! Make sure you read the previous post instructions too.


ooc: Field trip starts soon! Last chance to join in here!




ignore this, Tegz is reminding herself to add Dora and Alice and Zahra and Caleb and Toby to the list

Kalla slipped into the seminar room and found a seat, all done very quietly. She really DUG wandlore. Like a lot. FASCINATING stuff. Seriously. Oh and there was a little questionnaire thingy. Kalla smiled at the man in the front of the room and then snagged a quill from her bag and began filling out the parchment.

And yes, she had put her permission slip on the edge of her desk. MHM.

be curious, not judgmental

THIS WAS THE SEMINAR OF HER DREAMS.

A SEMINAR. WITH THE WANDMAKER GUY WHO INSPIRED HER TO BECOME A WANDMAKER SOME DAY AND HAD GIVEN HER ALL THAT SUPER GREAT ADVICE AND TOLD HER SHE COULD DO ANYTHING SHE COULD PUT HER MIND TO AND BE A GREAT WITCH.

Or... maybe not in so many words. But he had created a wand-loving monster. So when Sophie entered the room with her notebook and permission slip in hand and SAW Ira standing there, her eyes lit up, her cheeks went red, and she tried NOT to but she squealed with glee, pressing her lips together in an attempt to keep more sounds from bursting from her.

She took a moment to gather herself, unable to rid the grin from her face, tilted her chin upward, and marched to the desk closest to Ira, not looking at him. Right at the front for now so she could be as close to him and hear EVERYTHING he would have to say. Her eyes flicked to the board and she flipped her permission slip face up on the desk in front of her as she sat down, still nervously refusing to make proper eye contact with Ira for the time being.

My child agrees to follow all instructions given by the teacher, and understands that attendance is privilege not a right.

Parents signature: Kieran Brown
Child's signature: Sophie Brown

Hurrying to copy down the next bit of information, Sophie dared to sneak a peek at Ira, who looked just as gruff and grumpy as ever - but when he saw HER he'd feel better about everything, yeah? He'd look pleased and remember how cool it had been when she got her wand from him and realize how eager she was to be there and how attentive she was going to be and how he wasn't wasting his time? She quickly looked back down at her notebook and scribbled out the required things onto a blank sheet of parchment, a smile playing upon her lips in anticipation for Ira's acknowledgement of her.

When she finished, she tore the page from her notebook and set it on her desk, finally directing her attention entirely to Ira. Sophie offered him a happy wave upon catching his gaze, flicked her wand from its holster, and raised it. "Remember me, sir? Sophie Brown? Future wandmaker extraordinaire? Hermione!wand? I've been studying really hard and doing everything you said. Thanks for all your help. This is gonna be fun." He HAD to remember her upon looking at her wand, yeah?

Nigel walked into the seminar hoping the person would show up this time. Not like last time where the guy did not show up and they were left with a safety seminar. Which did nothing to help them last year. It was fantastic getting zapped.

The Prefect did have an interest in wandlore and the field trip to the Forest of Dean. But first he need to do the questionnaire and put the permission slip on his desk.

Adi skipped happily towards the room. When he had heard about the wandlore seminar, he became very excited. He had a hunch about who would be there and he hoped he was correct.

Upon entering the room, he glanced around excitedly. Yes! He was right! "Mr. Banner! It's great to see you again!'' Adi wondered if the man would remember him. "Remember I had told you I would visit you? But instead you're visiting us!''

Leaving Mr. Banner alone now he took a seat at one of the desks at the front of the class and placed his permission slip at the edge.

Wandlore...interesting. She definitely had a few questions to ask at this seminar, though if you asked her, it was a couple years too late. Where was this whole thing during her first year when her wand didn't like doing anything she told it to??

Maybe she'd ask that too. For now, she walked over to the permission slip drop off and dropped hers there as well.

She also picked up a questionnaire on the way to a seat. Question though...why'd he want to know all this? What business was his what her wand was? Did it matter much? Something else she'd ask? Later. All questions would come later. In the mean time she walked over to a chair and sat then began filling this thing out.

Anya was interested in this lesson. Yes she was. Wandlore. How cool was that? There was a reason her wand was her wand. And she was dying to know why.

Ella was here and stuff, permission slip in hand.

Wands were fascinating and everything but mostly the blonde had showed because her best friend was so interested in the subject. She figured it was only right to show some interest too.

"Hello Sir," She greeted quietly, giving the rather uncomfortable looking man a polite smile. Was this one of the guys Soph had interned with? She was curious.

After settling in at her desk, the seventeen year old placed the permission slip in the corner. She made sure it was face up as instructed, not wanting to get on this guy's bad side.

Wandlore was interesting enough, right? After all, wands were super important to a witch or wizard, so why not learn more about them? Besides, the wandmaker guy was sort of cute. Sort of. In an older-not-Fuller kind of way. He'd probably be nicer to look at if he smiled a little. Cat decided to smile at himinstead. Then she placed her permission slip up with the others.

Jake really liked the seminars that Hogwarts had, and this one seemed like it would be no different. Wandlore! How cool was that?

"Hello," he greeted who he assumed was the instructor as he walked by. The Gryffindor found a seat and pulled his permission slip out of his bag.

Fern was NOT looking forward to this class. She HATED Ollivanders, and she HATED its employees, and she was just finally getting over HATING her wand. And now this. A stupid seminar with that horrid man.

Stomping into the classroom, the first year quickly went over to the seat farthest away from where the shopkeeper/wandmaker stood, and shoving the seat out angrily, sat down with a thump. Then, pulling a stained and crinkled permission sheet out of her pocket, she slapped it face up in front of her.

She eyed the sheet for a moment with disgust before yanking out her parchment, quill, and ink. Pressing her quill so hard against the parchment it ripped through in some parts, Fern set to filling out the stupid information.

At last finished, she crossed her arms and glared at the desk, because looking at that man made her want to puke. Or scream. Or throw things. Or all three. And in her anger she allowed herself the small satisfaction of imagining that, if they apparated to the forest, he would maybe get several toenails splinched off in the process.

As he got to his desk he noticed a permission slip and a form to fill out. He got out his quill and started to scribble....

Waaaaaaaaaaand stuff. Cool. Very cool. Mo slid into his seat, placing the permission slip on the front of his desk where wand dude could pick it up. Wand dude. Did he remember everyone who had ever been in his shop? How annoying would it be if people always thought you remembered every person you ever met?

"Hello, sir," Sky said as stepped into the room. And no, she didn't notice that the guest lecturer seemed less than happy about being here today as slipped into her seat and plopped her permission slip down on the desk in front of her. Why did she even need the thing anyway? At seventeen years old, she was considered an adult in the wizarding world. But whatever, it was fine.

This seminar actually sounded really cool, yeah? Growing up in the Muggle world his knowledge on wands was, well, limited to say the least. So at least this would be interesting. And he found very few things genuinely interesting because he was really smart and stuff. Even though he didn't usually ram it down peoples throats.

So it was gonna be nice to ACTUALLY learn something. Like a teacher. Wow. Foreign concept. Ahem.

Nodding at the guy, not talking to him 'cause that would be lame, he read what was behind his head. Blah, blah, blah. Field trip. Blah. Forest of Dean. Blah, blah. Guardian sign-

Oh.

He found a seat and sat in it with a sour expression. Parents.

...

Ascanius had only met his guardian once 'cause they were just some suit and tie at an office somewhere for the government. The endless joys of his situation.

Now he was REALLY annoyed. Like really annoyed. And started to violently scratch at the parchment with his quill.

Adrienne slipped into the seminar room a little uncomfortably. She wasn't entirely sure why she was here- that is, wands were fascinating and all, but she didn't think she'd actually want to listen to someone talk about them for however long they were going to be in here. And her impression wasn't helped by the surly-looking guy at the front of the room. Feeling like she'd done something wrong although she knew she hadn't, Adrienne just took a seat and got out some parchment and her permission slip.

How had Papie talked her into this again? Sigh. At least she'd gotten Maman to sign it, because she kind of just accepted it without explanation. Papa would have wanted her to tell him what she was doing and it would just all have been awkward. And now she had to answer the questions on the board, no? That sounded easy enough.

Queen of Typos | The OTHER OTHER Roro | WICKED is Good

Seminar! When they get to learn new stuff from new people. They could really use seeing some new faces, some professors were becoming boring and predictable. Though, sometimes that could be good as it's always nice to have familiar faces around, getting to see new people was cool.

Cassia didn't know much about wands, except her wand's type and she was pretty sure she even didn't know what the type implied. So she was excited! It was good feeling excited again after a month of non-excitement.

She headed to the great hall with the permission slip in hand that promised going in a trip. Eeep.

As she walked in, she shuddered noticing that it was cold. Good thing she was bundled and had an extra jacket in her bag. She looked at the man standing by the board. Someone wasn't excited for the trip, huh? And no one was talking. Were they gonna remain like that? She could not survive like that, you know.

For now, she chose a desk and placed the permission slip as instructed then reached for a parchment.

Seminar! About wandlore, too. This was going to be interesting, yeah? Especially since the permission slip, which he had made sure to get signed and bring along with him, mentioned something about a fieldtrip. To a forest. AWESOME. As long as it dust end up being dangerous.

Heading into the classroom, the boy... blinked. It looked a little odd in here. Maybe. Or maybe this had something to do with the fact that he had sat far too close to someone who was eating a spinach-based meal earlier that day. Maybe. Looking over at the man, Alec smiled and said, "Hello sir!" Yeah? There wasn't a need to say anything else, right? And was it okay to call him sir or...?

Too many questions.

The Hufflepuff headed over towards an empty seat and quietly sat down. His grey-blue eyes flew over towards the board and he scanned the instructions quickly. Permission form on the edge of the desk? Face up? Okay. He did so, making sure that t wasn't too near the edge either.

She was hoping this was interesting, mainly because she'd frowned repeatedly at the word 'CHILD'. Excuse me, we're 15, thank you. Still, Lottie smiled at the man she was supposed to hand the permission slip to. Was it morning, afternoon? She'd lost track of time. A simple greeting would have to do. "Good day, sir." Nod, nod. Also, he just seemed so out of place, and like forced to be here or something... this might actually end up being interesting. Smirk.

Wade entered in through the seminar room. He hadn't thought much about his wand lately, and well, events from last year that required a lot of outside class wand use, got him into really thinking more about it. So, here he was about to hand in the permission slip. Sure, he was already of age to not even need his dad signing off on it, but he didn't feel like making the process anymore difficult in explaining on why he would signed for himself. So in the end, Wade just got his loving dad to do it after all.

He gave a little smile and greeted, "Good day, sir." handing in his permission slip, before heading towards an empty seat.

Slipping into the Seminar classroom, she smiled to the students and smiled to the instructor with a little nod. Smiles for everyone, okay?! Having been roped into being a chaperon for this, educational, event, she wasn't so much excited for it as she was nervous. Past incidents were still haunting. Her chakras were doing so much better now though, even more so from the time of the feast, so... now was a good time as any to have some fun, right? Wand lore stuff! Field trips! Fun!

Hiding in the back of the room! Yes! Fun times ahead!

Minerva walked into the seminar. It seemed interesting enough. She didn't want to do anything that involved this topic in the future, but why not learn about it anyway. Thankfully she had went over to the States for the Wedding this summer and while there was able to get the permission slip signed. Even though she was of age and didn't see why she needed a permission slip, but whatever she was over it so here take the piece of paper. Her grandparents had no clue what they were signing anyway and actually gave her issues about signing at first.

Placing it on the table with the other permission slips Minerva turned and found a seat. Looking down at the form she began filling it out. She really hoped this seminar would be exciting and not drawn out about how to make a wand. Didn't they do that already in a history class a few terms back.

Hey, that was that guy that sold him his wand! Faintly embarrassed at his antics in the shop, Benzi shuffled in quietly and looked for a spot to sit. He's been super excited that day, he really shouldn't be held responsible for anything he'd said. Or did. ANYWAYS. Benzi dropped his things beside a really angry looking Fern, and raised his eyebrows in a silent question to her.

Oh. Right. Parchment. Hehe. Mummy had been super torn over that - on one hand she couldn't not let him go, it was an academic trip and blah blah blah, but on the other hand she knew for a fact he probably won't adhere to the rules she's signed in the slip.

Ah well. She's signed in the end of course.

Text Cut: Permission Slip
Child's name: Benzi Rider
Year: First
House: Ravenclaw

I, Rachel Rider declare that Benzi is permitted to leave Hogwarts ground on a school sanctioned field trip to the Forest of Dean for the purpose of learning about Wandlore. I understand that while all precautions will be taken to keep my child safe, Hogwarts, Ollivanders, and the employees of both, do not take responsibility for any foul play or accidents which may occur during the field trip, and that my child must act responsibly and respectfully at all times while off Hogwarts grounds. My child agrees to follow all instructions given by the teacher, and understands that attendance is privilege not a right.

Parents signature: Rachel Rider
Child's signature: BENZI


And now to fill out the form thing. He had to take a second to remember everything on the list, but was confident once he was done that it was all accurate.
