Thaumaturgy 101 - Thursday - First Period - 1/15
As the students came into the Danger Shop for today's class, Abigail Irene pulled a bag from near the door and brought it to a table she had already laid out.
"Today, we will be working on the most important principal of magic.
"Practicality."
She opened the bag and pulled out a number of wands which she placed on the table.
"I would like each one of you to choose a wand. Don't worry. You don't need to know which woods are good for what. These wands were made entirely for this exercise here and will only be required for today's class. That said, I should like you to keep them when you leave today, either as a memento of an interesting class, or as a reminder.
"Once you've chosen your tool, I would like each of you to assign a single spell to your wand. Just one spell, one magical effect. And no 'do whatever I say' spells, as that has been safeguarded against.
"Once you've done this, I have set up three challenges for each of you to complete. You must complete these individually using only the abilities of a normal human being and those given to you by your wand.
"Any questions?"
[ocd up!]
