Once you have gotten your number code correct and the door has let you through. The first thing you might notice is the room is super low. So low you might have to duck down or crawl to get in. Looking up there are little trap door all of course locked. Clear at the front of the room are more directions for you to follow.

Place them on and climb the wall to retrieve one of the many smaller boxes flying around. They will come to you with a small whistle. They will not come with accio so don't even try. Once you have the box carefully go back down and take off the sticky gloves and shoes. The floor is charmed so no you can't fall to your death or even get hurt. You will need to unlock the box to retrieve the letters to get through your final door into our classroom.
Good Luck
OOC: Just as the directions say you will RP doing the steps, minimum of five to get through each step. Again there is no time limit for now so please have fun and don't feel rushed.
NOTE: If you have not been quoted in Room 1 with a link to this room please do not post here yet. I will delete the post. If you haven't started in room 1 that is okay, go have fun, do room 1! You are not too late or too far behind. I PROMISE!!
There comes a time where things do need to wrap up! I would like to move on Tuesday, January 12. So I will be closing room 1 and 2 at that point. You will have until Tuesday at 3 p.m. EST to finish up on any of your post! Once these are closed it will be said that door have opened for your character to just go straight to the classroom! Remember it is okay if your character did not get all the way through!!

What sort of room was this? It was barely even a room at all, it was like a crawlspace or something. The first thing Olly had to do when entering the room was duck, and then he simply gave up and decided just to crawl because it was easier. The ceiling was so short he was not able to stand up properly. Why would there have been a door leading into a room like this? Why were they all supposed to go in there? At first, the answer was very unclear. There was nothing indicating what he was supposed to do now. Olly glanced behind him, half wondering if he had gone through the wrong door. But the only other door in the first room was the exit, and this was the door that the others were trying to go through as well. So it must be right.
Olly crawled forward, away from the entrance of the door so he would not be blocking the way for the students who wanted to come in. As he moved, he glanced around him, trying to figure out what he was supposed to be doing. There were doors above him, trap doors. And a lot of them. Would one of them lead to a more normal sized room? Olly still had his wand in the hand since he had taken it out earlier. He'd kept it out because he'd assumed he would need it. This was Charms, after all. He almost used it right at that moment to open one of the doors, but he decided against it. At least until he could figure out what was behind those doors. What if it was a bunch of poisonous snakes or something?
He continued to move forward and look around. There had to be something to indicate the point of the room. And then Olly saw it. At the far end of the room there were instructions written on the wall, like there had been in the first room. Those must say what to do. Olly made his way toward them as quickly as he could, but crawling was not exactly the fastest mode of transportation.
"Merlin's lost left sock in the laundry!" Austin ducked down and rubbed the top of his head. This room was not tall person friendly. Which meant that Austin did not want to be friends with this room. He hoped Azura had more luck with the ceiling than he did. Deciding that walking was not going to be an option, he got down on his hands and knees. Crawling around he wondered what they were all doing in this room. There wasn't a giant chalkboard at the front of the room, heck Austin didn't even know where the front of the room was. "Azura, do you see anything of importance?" Maybe there was a note, or a book or something lying around.
After a few minutes of crawling around, the Ravenclaw realized he couldn't do this for much longer. So he decided to do what any 15 year old would do. He dropped down on his stomach and began army crawling his way around the room. Thankfully the floors were hardwood, which made it easy to slide around. Hopefully they found something soon.

Ack!!!
Short room!! She was short and it was even a little to low for her to walk normally in! She kinda had to hunch a little as she followed Austin and after that, she just gave up and started to crawl behind him! What in the world was this?
Were all magic classes like this? Because she currently felt like Alice in Wonderland at the moment!!
Uhhhh did she see anything?? She squinted her purple eyes and nodded! "Yeah! Down at the far end of the room.. I think there are directions there!" She said as she pointed down and stared to crawl towards them!

"Lead the way, my purple eyed friend!" He continued to army crawl after her. Man he was going to have some serious abs if he had to keep this up. He wasn't complaining, it was just going to hurt tomorrow. When they arrived at the instructions, Austin mumbled them to himself. So it wasn't all bad. Just have to climb a wall, no big deal.
"Well, let's deal with the wall climbing later. For now let's just get this ceiling unlocked." Austin rolled over on his back. Since there weren't a lot of people here there was an unopened door right above him. "Hey, I'll head up first, and once you get your door unlocked I'll pull you up." Still on his back, he pointed his wand at the door and said, "Alohomora". He got up on his knees, pushed the trap door open, and pulled himself up. The 'Claw was just happy to have room to stand.

Stepping/fitting through the door, Zeke instantly felt as if he was being shoved into a shoe box. WHY were the ceilings low???? Confronted with another set of instructions, Zeke quickly skimmed over it. So... 1) get to the door 2) unlock it 3) gloves and shoes 4) climb the walls 5) collect a box 6) come back down and remove gloves and shoes 7) unlock the box.
Right.
Well, if he wasn't already proficient with the Unlocking Charm, he now would be.
Cool...
He ducked his head, lower and lower until he was on all fours... and no, no, he was on his belly... army crawling or something to that effect. Seeing others up ahead, Zeke started crawling that way too. One arm and leg in front of the other. This was not what he had in mind, but he didn't mind the exercise.

Azura's purple eyes were wide as she looked at the board.. They had to what now?
Climb a wall???!!!! Uhh.. Mister Teacher person.. She couldn't climb walls! She could barely walk without issues! She had already broken her nose 3 times while here!!
She looked over at Austin and nodded worriedly.. "All right, please help me with the wall climbing though.. I'm a bit clumsy." She bit her lip a little as she watched her older friend turn over and unlock a door above him..
"Right.. I'm coming." She said as she too moved to lay on her back and then aimed her wand up above her and with an "Alohomora!! The door above her unlocked and she stood up and pushed it open.."All right, my door is open! She called up to Austin as she held a hand up to him for him to help her up!
Maggie was quite glad she hadn't like RUN through the door or something because then she would have hit her head. As it were though she DUCKED like the clever human being she was until she was on all fours. Which...like...she didn't exactly appreciate. It wasn't a nice position to be in.
It hurt her knees too. Hmpf.
After reading the instructions she just looked around for a moment. Seeing Zeke only a little ahead of her, Maggie quickly crawled after him until she could hold onto his leg. Hiii. Could he like take her with him? If she sat on his back would they be too tall to crawl still? Like, for HIM to crawl obviously.

Olly finally made his way all the way to the other end of the room and saw that he had been right, there were instructions on that far wall. He read them quickly. It seemed easy enough. The first step was just to unlock the doors, something they had already been practicing in the previous room, then all they had to do was catch a flying box. Climbing on the walls would be a little weird, but it sounded fun. Olly read through the instructions twice, to make sure he would remember them, he turned and headed back toward the entrance. He stopped underneath a trap door.
"Alohomora." Pointing his wand was a little weird because he was on his hands and knees, but he managed to make it work without much trouble. And the spell worked on his first try. He reached up and tugged on the latch, and the door swung open easily. Olly pulled himself up, glad to be in a part of the room where he did not have to crouch. What was the next step again? Right, put on those gloves and shoes that were apparently sticky. Then he could get to the fun part.

She'd be doing the sitting.
His eyes were fixed to a spot ahead of him, right beneath a trap door. Any old one would do, but he wasn't dumb enough to go for one right in the back. The closer, the better. Time was of the essence. He wanted to learn something more than just unlocking things today.
Everything stopped for him though, when he felt something grab his leg.
Head whipping to peer around his body, Zeke exhaled a breath when he saw it was Maggie. Just Maggie. "Hey," he called back, "you alright?"
Kay gasped when she saw how small the next room. She tried not to panic, she was claustrophobic when it came to small enclosed areas. She took a few calming breathes before heading towards the front of the room where the next set of instructions were. She was short, but she still had to bend over a bit to make it over. The farther she made it into the room the harder it was for her to breathe. By the time she made it to the board she was gasping for breathe. She tried to control her breathing so she can finished the test.

Austin poked his head down the hatch when she said she had it unlocked. "Great job! Charms really does seem to be your subject." Maybe she should pursue the career of Auror. They used Charms a lot, right? Taking a look around, he saw a small girl breathing heavily. She did not seem too happy... Hopping back up, he took Azura's hand, and lifted her up to the second level. "Hey, you carry on ahead. I'll be right back." The boy climbed back down, lied on his back, and scooted over to the girl.
"Hey, are you alright?" He sat up, unsure of what was wrong. Maybe she was sick? He could take her to the Hospital Wing if she was. "Everything will be okay."

Errrr...
Why was the ceiling so low?
Frowning slightly, Esme had to stoop in order to get through. Thank Merlin she was short, because she had no idea what she would do if she was the same height as her father. Thankfully she had taken after her mother in that regard.
What was with the trap doors on the ceiling?
She would probably find out soon enough...
She kept on her way until she reached the next set of instructions. Now that was what she was talking about. Didn't seem that hard, but more of a challenge than the previous room had been. She was going to do this all by herself because she was tough.
With a little bit of difficulty Esme managed to point her wand upwards to one of the trap doors. Tall people must have a lot of difficulty with this part; she felt a little bad for them. "Alohomora!"
As soon as Chloe ducked into the room she did not like it. Nope, nope. Not one bit.
She had to climb and retrieve things and she had nightmares about this kind of thing. Falling to her death. Anxiety was suddenly spiking her heart rate but she swallowed thickly and tried to calm it. This was a lesson. She wasn't going to die. She hoped.

Kaylee was concentrating so hard on breathing that she didn't notice the older boy scooting towards her. she gulped and tried to answer back to his question "I do-don't l-like small closed-in spaces. I-it g-gets hard to b-breathe. She blushed, she always hated her claustrophobia. "I-I sh-should be fi-fine"

Azura smiled warmly up at Austin as he spoke and stuck his head down through the door! "Thanks! I hope potions is going to be my subject too! I need that to be a healer." She grabbed a hold of his hand and then she purple eyes went wide as Austin said to carry on!
Ummmm.. She was the clumsiest person in the world and he was going to leave her alone to climb a wall?
"Hurry back." She said as she meant it!
She watched as her lifeline disappeared back through the door and she put a hand on the wall to steady herself.. Charms she could do! Physical activity! Not so much!
She bit her lip and looked down ahh.. Look look sticky shoes and gloves.. She sat down and started to pull on the shoes.. And looked around..
What in the...? What happened to this room? Haddie ducked and entered the room and snorted with suppressed laughter.
She was having Alice in Wonderland flashbacks. Curiouser and curiouser.
That stopped when she saw instructions on the board. Her eyes went wide. Her jaw dropped. Wall climbing!!? She involuntarily hopped with excitement, immediately driving in her head into the ceiling. "Ow!"
Kneeling down was helpful. It let her rub her head and look up at the trap doors at the same time. It was also helpful as it gave her room to aim her wand, and wave it. "Alohomora!" The trap door clicked above her. She opened, careful to avoid bumping her head again and climbed up, excitedly.

So now they were in a little room clearly designed for pixies or hobbits or goblins Daxton ought to feel right at home and they had to go.... somewhere else? Huh. Well first years and second years had a right advantage here, didn't they? Lucky them. He only ducked a little as he headed in.
Glancing over at his partner in crime for now, and Kettleburns DID make excellent PiC, Davie headed toward the end of the room where several students seemed to be converging. "Do you see any directions?" There were bound to be some, eh.

Ahh, so that was it. "Don't you worry, we'll get through this." This was going to be tricky. He was afraid of spiders, and he hated finding them around the house. His younger sister, who was almost three could take care of the spiders better than he could. Embarrassing, yes, but nothing should have that many legs. It was too much power for such a small creature.
Austin looked her in the eyes for a moment. "Everything will be alright. We're just going to have a little fun." The teen lied back down on the ground and rolled onto his stomach. He patted the ground next to him, indicating for her to join him.

Okay.. She could do this!
She had got her sticky shoes on and now for the gloves! She pulled them on and then stepped back a little.. Only to find that she was stuck to the floor!
Ack!!
She hurriedly pulled up hard in her foot and it came free!! Hooray!!!
Okay! Now to the wall! She leaned forward and put her hand on the wall, it stuck!! Well duh, they were supposed to stick! She shook her head as she put her other hand on the wall, a bit higher than the first one! Okay.. Hands on the wall!
Now for her feet!
She put one foot on the way and then the other.. And now...
Stuck!
She whimpered softly as she tried not to cry! Why had Austin left her? She couldn't climb walls!!
She pulled her hand back hard and it came off thankfully! And she stuck it higher up!!
After the door let her through to the next room, the first thing she noticed was she's in a doll house.
SHE'S IN FREAKING DOLL HOUSE?!
She has no idea why the Charms Professor has to bring a doll house to Hogwarts. Was the Professor has something against the tall people or something? Candice ducked her head when she entered the doll house. At least she's not claustrophobic. That's a plus. Oh. Look. Instruction. The sixth year read the instruction carefully because she didn't want to miss anything and have to stay longer in this doll house.
Its a little difficult for her to reach her wand inside her pocket and pointed to the door. "Alohomora!" She heard the click sound from the lock indicate the door is open.

When he had pulled himself fully through the trap door, Olly allowed himself to stretch his back and legs. Crawling was not particularly enjoyably. That's why babies stopped doing it as soon as they learned to walk. He inspected his knees, they were sore but had been protected enough by his robes that they were not scratched. Which was good, because he did not want to have to deal with an injury.
Olly moved his gaze away from his knees and searched for the shoes and gloves that were supposed to be up there. He spotted one easily and reached for the shoes first. He figured it might be hard trying to put on shoes if he was already wearing gloves that were all sticky. See, he was thinking. Olly took off his own shoes, leaving them right next to the trapdoor he had opened, so he could pull on the sticky ones. Next he put on the gloves. He pressed one hand against the wall as a test. Yep, it stuck. Olly tilted his head and looked all the way up to the ceiling. There were the boxes, flying around. He had to climb all the way up there to grab one. He took a breath and set to it.
Ahh, so that was it. "Don't you worry, we'll get through this." This was going to be tricky. He was afraid of spiders, and he hated finding them around the house. His younger sister, who was almost three could take care of the spiders better than he could. Embarrassing, yes, but nothing should have that many legs.

Kay realized that if she focused on the older boy, she can control her breathing a little better. The boy had a calming factor about him. She saw him patting the ground for her to lay down beside him. With slightly shaky legs she managed to lay down next time.
She blew out a breathe of air, and closed her eyes so she didn't have to see the low ceiling. Realizing how unpractical that was, the young girl turned her head towards the older boy and opened her eyes. "O-Okay. What next? She gave a small smile when her voice came out a lot less shakier than before.
Kaylee also realized that during her little break down she never introduced herself "M-my name is Kaylee." She said.

Austin flashed her a smile. "I'm Austin." He thought about what to do next. Basically they had to scoot their way to a free door. And then she had to unlock it. Which might be hard if she wasn't a fan of the ceiling. Or the small spaces in general. But first, he had to calm her down. "Okay, here's what we do. Follow my lead." Austin got into an army crawl position, and began wiggling along the floor. Since there weren't a lot of people around, he, thankfully, didn't hit anyone. But he flailed about all the same. The boy was hoping to make her laugh. It was a strange sight to behold.
Once he came to two free doors, he sat back up and waited for her to join.
Toothless - Napoleon of Crime - Gryffinclaw - Owl Emissary - Pirate Auror - DoctorDonna
Unfortunately the opening and stepping into the door wasn’t the really hard part after all. The harder part was slipping into the new space. For once Olivia didn’t feel bad about her shorter height but even she couldn’t stand up fully. Her head and shoulders bent a bit, the first year inched her way into the short-ceilinged room, taking in the rest of her surroundings as she got further inside. More doors…locked as she kind of expected but she had tried the nearest one anyway.
So she gathered herself like she had for her final try at the cabinet, and like she had on the box still in her possession. She could do this. She had gotten this spell down. “Alohomora!” But no…it remained locked and Olivia couldn’t help but be mildly frustrated. “Can’t get too full of oneself,” she reminded herself. Using magic was still quite new to her so stumbling had to be expected.
Didn’t mean she had to fully like it.
“Alohomora!”
…click.
Another open lock! Olivia was relieved it had at least worked on the second try. Now she could hopefully escape this small room.
