Kalif’s dark eyes gazed upon the Mandrakes. Their fate of being killed and stewed up were sealed. It never bothered him. He never let things like this bother him. He could chop all of them up, even Luther, and it wouldn’t bother him. However, he couldn’t let the children know this. He glanced up and leaned against his desk in his usual position. His emotionless face gazed upon the students as they filed in.

He waved his wand and the door closed. He nodded at the students, “Greetings. Now, take out your notes and copy this down from the board. I am not feeling quite myself today, so I won’t talk much at all.” He tapped it and their notes magically wrote themselves on the board.

Stages:

Infancy
Toddler
Childhood
Pubescence

Pubescence – Leaves thicken and take on a waxy texture, all this is due to the oil they secrete, which causes them to have acne. Childish mannerisms are gone, replaced by moodiness. They become more secretive.

Gender:

Males tend to have more acne and make rude gestures towards the other Mandrakes. They also make cat calls out to the females. If you are wearing the earmuffs, then most likely, you won’t hear them. Though lip reading is common since they like to pop their heads out of the soil and grab their food.

Females have less acne, and tend to whisper and gossip incessantly. They are more laid-back than males. They like to primp in this stage, as they will pop their heads out of the soil as well. They also like to flirt.


Kalif waited until everyone had finished. He began to talk in a low tone, “Now, you will be able to check to see if your Mandrakes’ genders, and you might have to change their names.” He waved his hand and the board went back to the corner from where it had come from. “Observe your Mandrakes and their behaviors. Record this in your journal and give them a bit more water and food than you did in their last stage.”

“Earmuffs.” He put on his, and waited for the others to put theirs on. He gave his Mandrake, which turned out to be a female, so he changed her name from Luther to Lutherina. Lutherina popped her head out and grabbed the food, after glancing up at Kalif before retreating into the soil. Kalif gestured for them to begin as he watered Lutherina.

Kalif said right after they were done, “Report here after nightfall. Bring your journals as we will observe a Mandrake party. Put your earmuffs in the box outside the door. If they spotted us, they would stop.” He smirked. “Class dismissed.”


Party Time

Kalif waited outside the castle doors for the students. He had his hood on to keep the cold from aggravating him. After all were present, he led the students toward the greenhouses. He passed out the earmuffs, “Just watch.” Everyone put on their earmuffs, including Kalif. He hand his hand raised for silence among the students. A male Mandrake, popped up, looked around, making sure the coast was clear. It jumped out and knocked on the other pots. The other Mandrakes popped out and the party began.

(okay guys, there they are! So here we all are, sitting on a hill and you guys can write whatever you want about what’s going on at the party. Keep it clean! They love music, dancing and having a fun time.)



Homework: RP the lesson, record in your journals. You’ll record the stage they’re in, their genders (new names, if they’re a different gender than you thought), food/water you gave them. You’ll also record the raucous party they threw. Make sure you RP coming back to watch the party.
