Brush up on your spells everyone because here it comes. Little Hogwarts has its own dueling club and you have the opportunity to become involved. It’s a way to get gold, gain house points, and possibly get some anger out at the same time. All the gold given in this event is from Little Gringotts and the donations you as members have sent in throughout time which means it is going to a good cause because it gets filtered back to you, well, kind of. Either way, this is also a good way to filter out some boredom as long as you and one other guild member of a different house than you is online.

So I bet you’re all wondering just how this works. Well as long as there is one other member willing to have a duel with you it is possible. Now follow instructions carefully because it has to be done correctly for anyone to get any house points or gold for them. First of all, ALL new duels MUST be made in a FRESH topic inside the dueling club thread and the topic must contain both user names of the participants of the duel may only be between two members of Little Hogwarts. Also know that for the duel to be finished each participant must fire exactly 5 spells. The spell must be an actual spell from the actual Harry Potter series or from one of the approved spells that has been submitted in the Standard Book of Spells and a shield charm does not count though can be used if the spell did not hit the target. The 5 spells must be offensive. To know if the spell hit the opponent or if it missed you must roll a die and if the number comes out even the target is a hit but if it comes out odd it is a miss.

To judge a win, each participant must have fired 5 offensive spells and one person must have at least one more hit than their opponent. If each opponent has made the same amount of hits there is no winner and there will be nothing awarded to either participant and both will be required to take one week of ‘healing time’ before entering another duel. If there is a winner, the winner must send an owl to their head of house and their head of house will look over the duel and if it is legal they will award the winner 100 gold and 5 house points. The loser must then wait 1 week from when the duel was ended for healing time before entering another duel or their current duel will be deemed illegal.

It is the responsibility of BOTH participants of the duel to make sure that the duel is and remains legal. For a duel to be legal both participants must be registered in the Houses thread in a house, both participants must be of DIFFERENT houses, neither participant may be on healing time or in detention, neither participant may exceed 5 offensive attacks to their opponent, neither participant may change the roll of their die, and neither participant may use an unforgivable curse or a spell that is not in the series or approved in the Standard Book of Spells. If any of the situations above are violated the duel becomes illegal and BOTH participants will lose 5 house points and given a week of detention upon which they cannot participate in duels. If the duel is deemed illegal because a participant is on healing time or already in detention that participant must wait 2 weeks instead of just the one. The detention date starts from the date you receive the owl from the mod saying you have detention. At the end of each duel, whether legal or illegal, the thread created will be locked. There is no time limit on a duel, just make sure each participant has 5 offensive spells or the duel has not been finished, and ANYONE may participate in the dueling club if they are not in detention or on healing time.

Here is an example of a legal duel
Thread = Duel between HermioneGrangerDouble & Conan Dasklin
HermioneGrangerDouble: {Post Action = Roll Single Die} Stupefy {Die=6}

Conan Dasklin: {Post Action=Roll Single Die} Jelly Leg jinx {Die=2}

HermioneGrangerDouble: {Post Action = Roll Single Die} Petrificus Totalus {Die=1}

Conan Dasklin: {Post Action = Roll Single Die} Impedimenta {Die=1}

HermioneGrangerDouble: {Post Action = Roll Single Die} Incendio {Die=1}

Conan Dasklin: {Post Action = Roll Single Die} Stupefy {Die=6}

HermioneGrangerDouble: {Post Action = Roll Single Die} Leg locker curse {Die=4}

Conan Dasklin: {Post Action = Roll Single Die} Incarcio {Die=2}

HermioneGrangerDouble: {Post Action = Roll Single Die} Impedimenta {Die=3}

Conan Dasklin: {Post Action = Roll Single Die} Stupefy {Die=1}

As you can see, HermioneGranger double got 2 hits while Conan Dasklin got 3 which would make Conan Dasklin the winner. He would get 100 gold, 5 house points, and Hermione would need to wait 1 week from the day Conan Dasklin made his last attack since he does have the last one to make 5. We ask that the last poster don’t take forever to post because it isn’t fair to the loser and the winner is also not allowed to start another duel until their current one is finished. If one participant has posted their fifth spell and the other has not within a week of the first one casting their fifth spell, the second participant will be forced to resign and the first will be the winner no matter how many attacks where hit to whom.

If you would like you may make it more entertaining by actually writing out sentences in the posts. It really depends on how bored you are. If you want to this is how it would look. Of course each person is different depending on what year you are in which you’ll find in the Houses thread. If you are 6th year and above you may do silent spells but 5th year and under incantations are required.

HermioneGrangerDouble: {Post Action = Roll Single Die} At the signal I gave the respectful bow to Conan before turning and walking the 3 steps with my wand at the ready in the start position. At the signal to start I quickly spun and aimed. “Stupefy.” I silently thought and watched as the red light flew out of my wand. {Die=6}

Conan Dasklin: {Post Action = Roll Single Die} At the signals I followed the rules and proper procedures as I bowed to Hermione and then spun and took 3 steps with my wand at the ready. I was set for her incantation, but it never came. One second she had spun around like I had, and the next the red light was exploding from her wand. I felt the spell hit me just as I remembered that of course she could perform without incantations. This was going to be hard. I shouted the Jelly Leg Jinx the second I could and watched the light leave my own wand. {Die=2]
