The House Cup is a yearly award, given at the end of the school year to the House with the most House points. Points are given to Houses by teachers and prefects throughout the year for various things including answering questions correctly and doing good deeds. The winners of school Quidditch games, duels and choir battles also receive points. Points can be taken away for things such as misbehaving or rule-breaking.

Giant and enchanted hourglasses in the entrance hall keep track of the House Points. The hourglasses are filled with different jewels for each house - Gryffindor's are rubies, Ravenclaw's sapphires, Slytherin's emeralds and Hufflepuff's yellow diamonds.

The counting of points will be updated weekly and posted on “Week Updates” posts. You can check it out the counter in House Cup topic or in the house cup tag. Each month the background of the main page will feature the house crest and the head director to show currently on the leadership of the House Cup, At the end of the school terms, the house champion will have the FC of members that are on the game until the beginning of the next school year.

The Duelling Club is a club founded founded by Gilderoy Lockhart in 1992, with the intention of teaching the students of Hogwarts how to act in a hostile situation. Though the initial club was not much of a success and disbanded after Lockhart was removed from his position, it was, though, reinstated by Headmaster Albus Dumbledore in 1996 as a precaution when Lord Voldemort had been officially recognized by the Ministry as a threaten once again.

The club is currently leaded by Potions Teacher, professor Emily Royer. Each house has their own captain, who is supposed to represent the teams as a leader and the responsible run duels practice. They also have their own personal duelling area from which students can go to friendly encounters or official matches. The duelist must have at the end of Christmas break at least 7 official duels. The top 5 duelists with the best scores of each house will fight between each other every Tuesday on elimination matches until the great final, where the winner will be declared Hogwarts’ Duelist of the year.

Just like quidditch, Hogwarts Rejects and Regular students have separate leagues, however, the winners of both championships won’t have a friendly duel at the end of school term, mostly because it would been dangerous for the duelists.

The house of the top duelist of Hogwarts wins the Dueling Trophy alongside with 150 points on the House Cup.

When Gaia Goshawk became the deputy head, the first thing she changed was the dorm assignments’ criteria. The alumini are now separate according to their year, gender and sexual orientation, with each dorm containing four persons. Also the doors and windows are charmed with spells to prevent uninvited guests, while beds have security charms to prevent any form of aggression.

This measure was taken after the infamous year of 1999, when the case of teen pregnancy and STD’s inside Hogwarts increased close of 200% in comparison to 1997. According to The Daily Prophet, the main responsible for this shameful page of school’s history were the end of the war against Lord Voldemort in may of 1998 and William Statton’s failed prediction that the wizard community would end based on Nostradamus’s work, famous half-blood wizard known in muggle world as scientist.

The incident nearly caused the Ministry of Magic and the Wizengamot to attend purebloods families’ request of dismissing Minerva McGonagall as Headmistress, but thanks to Hogwarts' Parents Board intervention and the big rejection of the British Wizard society on the subject, this demand died really quick.

To get more safety, Hogwarts Parent’s Board and the Hedmistress McGonagall decided that the Rejects and regular students will play on a separate team. As usual, each house will have a team and they will play against each other after the regular game of the day. To fit the schedules, there will be two Quidditch days on the week, with two matches each: on wednesday evenings at 6 PM/8PM and on saturday afternoons at 2PM/4PM. There will be a fair match between the winners of both leagues at the end of the school year to celebrate the peace between the houses.

Students that aren’t on any of the teams can play a friendly scrimmage game, as long it isn’t breaking any of the curfew rules.

At this moment, there are two choirs in Hogwarts.

The Frog Choir,

The Singing Salamander Choir

The Frog Choir

Frog Choir is the most traditional choir at Hogwarts. It was  founded sometime during Celestina Warbeck’s time at Hogwarts (1928-1936) as a result of her mother’s frequent letters to the school demanding, among other artistic pursuits, a choir. They usually practised in the Great Hall but after the reconstruction in 1998, they won a room in the dungeons where they could practice without problem. The choir is quite talented, being able to both sing fluently in Latin as well as polyphonically. They won several years the European Wizard Choir Championship and are currently tied with Beauxbatons Choir on the amount of prizes. Because of its popularity, It became utterly hard to join. The choir current conductor is professor Hecate MacLaggen.

The Singing Salamander Choir

The Singing Salamander Choir, in the other hand, is a reaction to the elitism on Frog Choir. It was created by Professor William Stretton in 2009. The choir has the blessings of the Headmistress, however, most of the students believes that the Singing Salamander isn’t nothing but a joke, since they lost to Frog Choir every year on Hogwarts’ Annual Show Choir Constest.

Hogwarts’ Annual Show Choir Constest

Created in order to increase competitiveness among the choirs, to maintain the high standard in both, and encourage the spirit of friendship between the houses, the Hogwarts’ Annual Show Choir Contest takes place every year between February and April. Both choirs put their best numbers to compete in a presentation of 6 minutes each in the main hall. The Hogwarts students and teachers vote to choose who was better. The winner will represent the school in the European Championship of Magical Choirs and each of its members earns 80 points for their houses in the house cup

Facts About Neville Longbottom

Neville Longbottom is a pure-blood Gryffindor. His parents, Frank and Alice Longbottom, were prominent Aurors and Order of the Phoenix members until they were tortured into insanity (with the Cruciatus Curse) by a group of Death Eaters led by Bellatrix Lestrange. Neville was subsequently raised by his paternal grandmother.

Neville participates in the battle in the Department of Mysteries, in which he accidentally breaks the prophecy about Harry and Voldemort. Dumbledore, to whom it was originally made, explains that it concerned "the Chosen One", a wizard who would have the power to vanquish Voldemort and who would be born "as the seventh month dies" to "parents who have defied the Dark Lord thrice"; thus could refer to either Neville, who was born on 30 July 1980, or Harry, who was born a day later. This means that Neville could easily have had Harry's fate, had Voldemort chosen to target him instead of Harry..

With Hogwarts at the mercy of new headmaster Severus Snape and Death Eater siblings Alecto and Amycus Carrow, in Deathly Hallows, Neville reforms Dumbledore's Army with Ginny and Luna, and spends much of his seventh year as the group's leader, helping students who are tormented under the new regime. Neville's bravery is fully revealed here, as he not only tried to steal the sword of Gryffindor for Harry but also refused to obey the Carrows' cruel regime. Neville reveals to Harry that he had been subjected to the Cruciatus Curse by the Carrows as a result and was forced to go into hiding in the Room of Requirement to avoid Azkaban or death. 

During the Battle of Hogwarts, Neville is immobilised by Voldemort's Full Body-Bind curse, after which the Sorting Hat is placed on his head and set on fire. Neville later breaks free of the curse, pulls Godric Gryffindor's sword from the Sorting Hat, and uses it to decapitate Nagini (on Harry's orders), thus destroying the final Horcrux. 

After the second war, Neville joined Harry and Ron to train to be an auror. but beside the success in the new career, the constant work against dark wizards made him  always felt that he would be more useful at Hogwarts than any place else in the wizard world. He retired at 2013, when professor Sprout asked him to replace her as Herbology teacher. 

He married Hannah Abbott somewhere around the year of 2010, after dating for a really long time. They agreed not having kids due Neville’s dangerous work could put the their family in risk. However they are lately cogitating to adopt a child now that has been two years since he is took over the teaching position at Hogwarts and Hannah current retirement from Leaky Cauldron.

His biggest virtues as teacher is be compassionate over the students that have difficult in his subject while his biggest flaws are trying to befriend students, therefore hesitate to discipline them and taking so hard on himself for student’s failure.

He is in favor of the Hogwarts Rejects, because he believes that they are one of the most that suffered from the war.

Relationships

Minerva McGonagall - Minerva was overjoyed when Neville finally accepted the invitation to teach at Hogwarts. What nobody knows is that, with her retirement getting closer, she is really thinking into choose Neville to be her successor.

Hecate McLaggen - Neville doesn’t know what he did to annoy Hecate, but he certainly can see that she doesn’t like him at all. The former auror believes that her husband, Tiberius, may have said some nasty lie or some twisted rumor from Rita Skeeter.

Sheldon Cattermole - Niobe was the capitain of the dueling club when Sheldon first joined it. They became instant friends, even after she went to college, it was like they were never apart. He was her best man during the wedding. However Niobe feels that since her wedding, Sheldon is a bit distant from her, but might be just impression.

Emily Royer -  For him, she is rather odd, since she doesn’t seem to be too much involved around the political subject. He likes her mostly because she seems different from previously potion teachers Hogwarts had. Also, he tends to enjoy that Emily has a a great knowledge of herbology.

Niobe Carter-Stretton -  Niobe fought alongside Neville in battle of Hogwarts, and he was happy to see she was teaching there. She drops by his office once in a while to chit chat a little and makes happy to see the students has somebody to look it up to.

William Stretton - Neville doesn’t like him, since William was one of the older kids that bullied the former auror before the Battle of Hogwarts. He knows that people grow-up but dealing with the “Seer” in daily basis made him realize that’s not the other teacher’s case. What annoys Neville the most is that William tries to use his friendship with Niobe to promote the Singing Salamander choir, which is a waste of time for him.

Gaia Goshawk - He is still unsure what he did to Gaia, but this doesn’t stop Neville to admire her, since Goshawk was a bit of a legend in the auror’s office.

Emily Royer || Potions || Head of the Duelling Club || NPC

Age: 32 Date of Birth: November 8 Gender: female Face Claim: Evangeline Lilly Home Town: Metz, France Bloodstatus: Pureblood Sexuality: Demisexual Homoromantic House: Former Durmstrang Occupation: Potions teacher and Head of Dueling Club Status: Non-Playable Character

Personality

Positive Traits: Curious, Hard-working, Merciful, Trustworthy, Smart Negative Traits: Secretive, Argumentative, Moody, Sarcastic, Skeptical

Facts About Emily Royer

Emily is daughter of a Orville Royer, an apothecary owner from a small village near Metz and the english magical researcher, Anya Nott. Besides not knowing her mother, Emily knows she is a pureblood, since her father never let her doubt about her blood heritage, even though he never speaks or tells anything about the woman. 

Her interest for herbology and potions started since young age. She was always around, paying attention on her father’s work, interested in how he made potion. Emily was curious about the process of brewing and producing medicines for both muggles and wizards

Just like her father, she was sent to Durmstrang, since Orville thought that Beauxbatons wasn’t good enough on potions teaching. Emily however never fit too well at the school, since the girl was repulsed by sexist behavior of teachers and direction. Still, Emily graduated as one of the best of her class.

It was the summer before college Emily found out what happened with her mother. While moving some boxes in the attic, she discovered her mother’s diaries. When she showed them to her father, Orville decided to tell her the truth wishing this would be enough to push his daughter away: Anya was researching the origin of magic, how the magic is manifested in wizards, witches, magical beings and muggles. It was still in the beginning but the ideas behind this were very controversial, since it mixed muggle science with magical theory. Anya defended that the pureblood marriage was responsible for reducing genetic variety of the magical genes, hence the origin of the squibs, and with the right genetic therapy, a muggle could be able to use magic. She was killed by a group of death eaters that escaped from England with the Dark Lord’s first fall, since they wanted to make sure that her research would never see the daylight. Emily got even more interested on her mother’s works and decided to do everything she could to prove Anya was right. 

Emily went on Berlin University graduating in magical theory and muggle bio-medicine. Just like in Durmstrang, she excel in her classes, gathering all the knowledge she would need to finish Anya’s studies. While studying to get her PhD degree. her brilliant intellect brought the attention of Tugwood Potion Industries. They offered her a job on their creative potion department in England to develop new products. 

She worked for two years at Tugwood Industries until her job there starting to compromise the time she had to work her personal project. It was during that time that Emily heard that the famous potion master Horace Slughorn was leaving Hogwarts for good. Quickly, she dropped Tugwood Industries and applied for the job, since as a teacher, the woman would solver her time problem, while still being around a good apothecary and potion lab decent enough to keep her work going. It was no surprise that she was accepted and it’s been there since then,

Her biggest virtues as teacher is to be open to dialogue with her students and good will to repeat subject if anyone asks while her biggest flaws are not caring for school’s board politics and focusing only in the students that want to learn.

Emily couldn’t care less for the Hogwarts Rejects, however, she is intrigued by them and how they ignored magic for so long. it would be great if she could use one of them as sample for her study.

Relationships

Minerva McGonagall - Besides Minerva having her reservations on Emily’s style of teaching, she can’t deny that the woman has a natural talent for potion brewing and probably is a better a teacher than Slughorn, since Emily managed to higher up the grades. 

Hecate McLaggen - Although Emily has nothing against the charms teacher, she usually tries to avoid Hecate in public because she doesn’t want to get involved in silly choir drama. However, Emily visits her once in a while in her classroom to chat in french or to solve any doubt that might show up in her way. 

Sheldon Cattermole - Different what looks like Emily and Sheldon are actually best friends. She used to keep watching him during the meals, intrigued by his figure, until one day she listened him talking with a student about being a trans. A couple of weeks later, Emily delivered him a improved version of the potions to keep his body the way it was. Since then, they had been friends, they can talk about anything cause they know the other won’t judge them

Niobe Carter-Stretton - Niobe and Emily are rivals, Mostly because Niobe thinks Emily should be more inclusive while the other believes that Niobe is too nice and making the students lazy by the amount of help she gives to them. Also Niobe is a bit jealous of the crescent friendship between Emily and Sheldon.

Gaia Goshawk -  Since Gaia heard that Emily quit a job at Tugwood Industries and attended at Durmstrang, that the potion teacher is on her radar, just waiting to point the finger and say that Emily is an evil witch. However, she can't deny that Emily is a good teacher, really focused into making the kids stronger wix. 

William Stretton -  To the potion master, William is nothing but a funny man. She can’t understand why everybody else seems to angry at him all the time. She believes that he can be a real seer but doesn’t know how to use his powers and would stay more time with him in public if it wasn’t by the choirs rivalry. 

Neville Longbottom -  Emily is a aware of Neville’s fame, but she couldn’t care less about it. She likes he is the only person that can keep up with her herbology knowledge but that’s it, since she isn’t much of social person.

Facts About William Stretton

William is son of a muggle with a witch. The boy was raised by maternal grandparents since his mother, a former quidditch player - left him to follow Voldemort after William’s father abandoned her to be with a richer woman. They used to live on a muggle circle, using their magic to deceive muggles while avoiding the war in wizard world. He lived most of his childhood in the poorvety and part of him blames his mother for that.

He was sorted in Gryffindor, much to his grandparents relief. William never undestood why, but made the best of his time at Hogwarts by being on Frog choir and smuggling several muggles goodies (candies, magazines, card games....) inside the walls. It was around on the fourth year William found out he could use the tricks he learned while living in a circus to win some money pretending to be a seer.

After graduation, William decided to take his “seer” number to a next level, by studying everthing related to divination and the art of prediction, alongside with techniques muggle magicians used to fool people. Three years later, he started his own show on Skender Theater - an old nearly failed theater in Diagon Alley- every monday. His show became insanely popular after he joked in one of his many performances that Hogwarts would win the Triwizard Cup but either Cedric Diggory or Harry Potter would die on the last task killed by a evil wizard.  

This was enough to turn William into a instant star. He showed up in several magazines, gave interviews, wrote books, among other things. The Daily Prophet called him “the next Gilderoy Lockhart”. His 15 minutes of fame were running out when he said that Dumbledore would die and that Hogwarts would be destroyed during the war against Voldemort. This prediction was responsible to put him under Ministry’s Watch, fearing that the dark lord would abduct him and use Willam as weapon. Once the war was over, William was project into the stardom another time.

William came back to his weekly shows at the Skender and spend year on the anonymity, looking for ways to return to fame when he was invited by Sybill Trelawney to assume her position as divination teacher. He accepted, mostly because the salary was good and he could be able to find his way back to the top by the influence of students’ parents.

He applied to be the head of Gryffindor against Sheldon Cattermole and lost the position. With this failed attempt, William changed the focus to the Frog Choir. Choir’s suddenly fame in Europe as one of the best of the magical world could be what he needed to get back to fame. He tried to use the fact he used to be member of it to take out Hecate McLaggen as head of the choir only to lose another time. As a reaction, William create the Singing Salamander Choir, by convincing the headmistress that a small competition would be good to keep the Frog Choir on top. Most of the students believes that the Singing Salamander isn’t nothing but a joke, since they lost to Frog Choir every year on Hogwarts’ Annual Show Choir Constest.

It was while teaching at Hogwarts that he reconnected with his future wife, Niobe Carter. They married three years later and already has a 4 year old little girl that goes by the name of Hermione. They are one of the a few teachers that lives outside the castle, in Hogsmeade. Now that he is a father, William is focused more than ever to be famous again to make sure his daughter and wife never passes for what he had.

His biggest virtues as teacher is to know how to make his subject atractive to students and to know when people are lying to him while his biggest flaws are to be too lenient with the behavior of the students, having double standards with his alumns and lack of organization.

William is in favor of the Hogwarts Rejects, since he believes he will convince several of them to join his choir.

Relationships

Minerva McGonagall - Minerva has serious doubts about William’s divination skills, but she can’t deny that he was helpful during war. Although she is amused mostly, the headmistress thinks he is lucky part of the times. What people doesn’t know is that McGonagall allowed William to created the Singing Salamander Choir to keep him busy, wishing this will be enough for him to forget his plans.

Hecate McLaggen - William has nothing against her, and besides what everyone believes. He likes Hecate and apreciate the work she does on Frog Choir. The man thinks she is talented, wit and everything the newspaper tells about her. Her only problem is that she is in his way to get back to front page of Daily Prophet.

Sheldon Cattermole - Sheldon and William have a rivalry going on Sheldon arrival on the school. Besides noticing Sheldon’s puppy eyes crushing for his wife, The divination teacher believes that the other is too perfect for his own taste. Also William knows that there’s something fishy on the potion Professor Royer delivery to Sheldon every other week on his room at Hogwarts.

Emily Royer - William and the potion master get along too well. He likes to know that at least one teacher on this school besides his wife isn’t against him. William is amused with her idea that he can be a real seer but doesn’t know how to use his powers.

Niobe Carter-Stretton - William and Niobe met each other on college while she was studying the effects of ancient runes on seers’ predictions. They got along pretty well and got out for a couple of dates before losing contact. They reconnected again when she went to teach at Hogwarts, and their ended married and with a 4 year old child. He cannot lie to her, and Niobe actually makes him want to be the best version of himself to her and their daughter.

Gaia Goshawk -  They first met when Gaia and her team where protecting William from Voldemort and it was hate at first sight. If there’s a person William hates on Hogwarts, that person is Gaia Goshawk. To him, she shouldn’t be allowed to be near students since the old auror is nothing but a bully that is one step closer from getting a student in coma or dead.

Neville Longbottom -  William knows that Neville doesn’t like him, since he was one of the older kids that bullied the former auror before the Battle of Hogwarts. Still, William tries to use his wife’s friendship with Nevillie to get contact with the man, hoping the other teacher will leave grudges behind and help him to promote the Singing Salamander choir.

Facts About Niobe Carter-Stretton

Niobe is the daughter of two muggles from Brighton. Since young age it was easy to guess that she would become a bookworm. The girl felt at home surrounded by books, and loved to asks complicated questions to her parents about how the universe works or why those things happens that way.

Her Hogwarts letter was delivered by Pomona Sprout, head of Hufflepuff at that time. Niobe had a really hard time to believe on what the old woman told her and her parents, because it looked too much with a fairy tale to her taste. The witch had to do a series of magic to prove Niobe that she was speaking the truth.

She was sorted at Hufflepuff. At first, Niobe didn’t understood why, since the girl never had too many friends to begin with, but after a couple of weeks it was clear that she was at the right house. She joined dueling club, chess team and the quidditch team, but her favorite activity was the studying of ancient runes. They somehow helped her to understand better how magic itself works and how every branches were connected.

Sheldon Cattermole - Niobe was the capitain of the dueling club when Sheldon first joined it. They became instant friends, even after she went to college, it was like they were never apart.

Facts About Hecate McLaggen

Hecate comes from the Villeneuve Family, one of the most traditional pureblood families of France. The Villeneuves are famous among wizards of Europe to be full of bon vivants who love art and have very eccentric habits. They went on the brink of bankruptcy and their salvation was an arrange a marriage between their older child, Hecate, the oldest son of the McLaggen Family, Tiberius, since it would be interesting for them to expand their influence in the continent.

As expected, the girl was sent to Beauxbatons. The McLaggen wanted her to go to Hogwarts, so she could be closer to Tiberius, but her father didn’t want to break the family tradition. She became quite popular in school, largely due to her talent on Charms and as the star of their prestigious choir. Hecate used her popularity to date as much as she could, regardless of gender or race, enjoying the freedom she had while miles away from her "relationship". However the rumors about her activities flew through the ocean and forced her transference to Hogwarts, where she was sorted on Ravenclaw.

Hecate became a McLaggen few months after graduation. It was one of the largest celebrations the wizarding world ever witnessed. She moved into the McLaggen manor in London, and applied for a teaching position at Hogwarts as form to be away from her husband’s family sight. Tiberius managed to make her lose this opportunity, since he believed she was more valuable under his eyes. 

While Tiberius kept busy using the Hecate’s family connections to grow quick in the Ministry of Magic, she was engaged visiting the Muggle world, specializing in spells, and collecting extramarital cases. She always found a way to avoid pregnancy from her husband, despite strong pressure from his relatives, but the last thing she wanted was give an heir to him.

When Voldemort came to power, most of McLaggens ran away to Nantes to escape the war, only returned once the victory in the Battle of Hogwarts was announced. However Tiberius’ escapade was seen with terrible eyes for Kingsley Shacklebolt, the new minister of magic, he was resigned as unspeakable and sent to one of the Department of International Magical Cooperation, lost in a low profile section, making him to gradually losing influence within the ministry. With that, he started to pass more time at home, and the amount of time Hecate and Tiberius spend together only showed to them their marriage was failed right from the start. This was the last drop on their relationship, they are still married but only to keep the appearances

Hecate used that to her advantage and tried again to get a teaching position at Hogwarts. This time she got the job. Hecate began as music teacher and replacing Professor Flitwick when he was away to assist in Gringotts once in a while. It was around this time that she assumed the Frog Choir, revitalizing it by incorporating muggle music to the repertoire and turning the choir presentations in fantastic shows. This ensured the Hogwarts the first European Magical Choir championship in 60 years. When Flitwick retired two years later, Hecate took not only Charm classes, but also became the Head of Ravenclaw.

Her biggest virtue as teacher is encourage students to think beyond what is shown in the books and coming out of their comfort zones while her biggest flaw is be quite demanding with homework and talk too much when she gets excited about a subject.

She is quite puzzled by the Hogwarts Rejects and is in favor to have them in the castle to give them this unique shot.

Relationships

Niobe Carter-Stretton - Niobe and Hecate were friends, at least until William decided to create Singing Salamander Choir. Hecate felt betrayed, since she used discussed with Niobe about muggle songs and how to make the performances better with magic.

Sheldon Cattermole - She doesn’t tell anyone but Sheldon was the first friend Hecate made at Hogwarts. The teacher has a great affection to him and flirts with him a lot, mostly because she thinks he is cute when he blushes, but deep inside she hopes that one day they can be more than friends.

Emily Royer - Although Hecate doesn’t understand why Emily avoids her in public, she is really fond of the potion teacher. Emily visits her once in a while in her classroom to chat in french and to solve any doubt that might show up in her way.

William Stretton - At first, Hecate was incredibly pissed at his attempt to take down everything she worked hard to build. But after their first performance, she saw that there’s nothing to worry about them. However Hecate still afraid that someday they might improve their game.

Gaia Goshawk -  In Hecate’s eyes, Gaia is nothing more than a control freak that likes to torture and bully her students. However she can’t deny that the woman is doing a very good job with teaching DADA, since most of her NEWT level students passes on any auror program they apply.

Neville Longbottom -  She doesn’t like Neville at all. Having spend too much time around ministry worker due to her husband, Hecate thinks that he is just like the other Tiberius’ co-workers, and being an former auror makes her cringe even more, since she believes they are the cockiest persons on the whole structure.
