in Frequently Asked Quest... | | The Sorting Ceremony
The Sorting Hat is battered and old; it's patched, frayed, and extremely dirty. In order to speak and sing, a tear along the brim opens like a mouth. It speaks inside of the hat with a small, quiet voice to the wearer and it can read thoughts and respond to them. When not sorting students, the Sorting Hat rests on its stool in Dumbledore's office.

in Losing Her way [Open] | | Transfiguration
Transfiguration is magic which changes one object into another. It is possible to change inanimate objects into animate ones and vice versa. Some Transfiguration spells alter a part of something, such as changing a person's ears from normal into rabbit ears.
Moderators: Headmistress, Headmaster, Professor Elessar Garrison | 0 | 0 | | | Animagi (1 sub-board)
Animagi is where you will learn to become an Animagus, a wizard or witch who can transform into an animal. You will learn the techniques needed to transform into your respected animal of your choosing. Animagi requires concentration, dedication and strict discipline to complete this course. You must be a THIRD year or above to take this class. Any Second years wanting to take Animagi must include with their application a recommendation from a staff member and a letter of commitment from the student to the Professor.
Moderator: Kiaro Matuchi | 2 | 2 | | | Third Floor | | Charms
Charms are a type of magic spell concerned with enchanting an object to behave in a way that isn't normal for that object. Charms is also something of a catch-all for spells which aren't Transfiguration (spells which change the inherent nature of an object). In some sense, if a spell isn't Transfiguration, it's probably Charms.

The Hogwarts library contains tens of thousands of books on thousands of shelves. Included in its many sections is an Invisibility Section, a section with information about dragons, and a Restricted Section at the back, set off with a rope. A signed note from a teacher is required to peruse that section of the library; it contains books of Dark Magic only used by older students studying advanced Defense Against the Dark Arts. One of the books in this section screams when opened.

Divination is magic which attempts to foresee future events. Many in the Wizarding World consider this branch of magic to be imprecise at best. There are several types of Divination that will be taught within this class.

The Dark Arts has existed for many, many years, and normally involves deadly spells or terrible humans who use these spells. The Dark Arts class will involve said things, as well as other topics -- broad, yet usually unnoticed topics.
Moderators: Headmistress, Headmaster, Professor Aaron Lathen | 2 | 2 | | | Owlery
The Owlery, where the school owls and the owls belonging to students live, is located on the top of West Tower. It is a circular stone room, rather cold and drafty, because none of the windows had glass in them. The floor is entirely covered in straw, owl droppings, and the regurgitated skeletons of mice and voles. Hundreds upon hundreds of owls of every breed imaginable are nestled here on perches that rise right up to the top of the tower, nearly all of them asleep, though here and there a round amber eye glares.

Potions are magical liquids created by mixing various ingredients in a cauldron according to very specific rules. These mixtures must usually be happy to give their magical effect. The ingredients in potions range from the mundane to the bizarre and fantastic, and the procedures for creating some potions can be complicated and time-consuming.
Moderator: Professor Rae Wilkes | 0 | 0 | | | Kitchens
The Hogwarts kitchens are located directly below the Great Hall and are just the same size. They have high ceilings and a great brick fireplace at one end. Mounds of brass pots and pans are heaped around the walls. There are preparation tables directly below the four house tables in the Hall above, and when the time comes for the food to be served, it is magically transported through the ceiling of the kitchen onto the plates. The kitchens are staffed by a large number of house elves. To get to the kitchens, take the door to the right of the main staircase in the entrance hall. Follow the corridor until you come to a painting of a bowl of fruit. Tickle the pear and it giggles and becomes a door handle.

The forbidden forest is home to a wide and strange assortment of creatures. Anything wild and dangerous that needs a place to live is put there.

Moderators: Headmistress, Headmaster | 901 | 22,852 | | | Non Wizarding World | | London
London is the capital city of both the United Kingdom and the constituent country of England. The ancient City of London to which the name originally belonged still retains its mediaeval boundaries; but the name "London" has long applied more generally to the whole metropolis which has grown up around it. London is where various Magical establishments are located such as the Ministry of Magic, the Museum of Quidditch, St. Mungo's Hospital, Charing Cross Road, Kings Cross Station, Paddington Station, Grimmauld Place, and so on. Heathrow Airport is also located within the great city.

One speaks to the ugly dummy in the front window, who will nod its assent and beckon you to enter. In a process very similar to how one gets onto Platform 9 and 3/4, one walks into the window. The Healers at St. Mungo's are trained and equipped to treat a wide variety of magic-related illnesses and injuries.

The headquarters of the Ministry of Magic is located in the heart of London. A visitor to the Ministry of Magic comes to a broken-down red telephone box located on a dingy street which has several shabby offices, a pub, and a wall covered with graffiti. When the telephone in the box is dialed (62442, the word M-A-G-I-C), the welcome witch's voice answers, not from the phone but from the air as if the person is standing right there. Visitors must state their business, upon which a silver badge pops out with the visitor's name and purpose of visit. Then the telephone box drops down like a lift for about one minute, after which the visitor is in the Atrium.
