Apparation Exam

[Irene Finch]

Irene Finch used her wand to move some chairs against the wall and looked around the Great Hall. She'd specifically asked the Headmaster to not move the tables out of the way for the students' exam. If they were going to be licensed apparationers, then they would certainly need to possess the ability to accommodate for their surroundings. They wouldn't always be able to apparate into an open field or empty room.

Heading to the doors of the Great Hall, Irene wondered whether the students were nervous or anxious or simply ready for this to be over with. She stepped out, closing the doors behind her and addressed the students seated on the bench. "Good afternoon" she greeted. "In a moment, I'll begin calling you in one by one. Once I do, I'll ask you to apparate to a spot somewhere in the room. You will only get one shot, and I cannot pass you if even a hair remains where you once stood." Irene wanted that fact to be clear because she hated the annoying begging that came when a student failed. It was just a hair, Who needs the tip of their pinky? and But my socks are under my shoes. Who would notice that? were comments that students had given her in the past, thinking that it would change Ms. Finch's mind.

Stepping back into the room, where her clipboard was already magicked to take notes, Irene glanced at the list, her blue eyes scanning and wondering how many would succeed. She called the first student forward. Once the student was inside, Irene shut the door and began the exam.

Out of Character: Instructions

Roleplay your character's attempt to apparate to a point in the room. Obviously, you will get a P or T depending on whether you roleplay your character succeeding or failing. House points will be given for the level of detail in your roleplay regardless of passing or failing. If you have any questions, you know what to do

 

[Briar Rowan-Cullen]

Briar raced back to the castle, she ad been outside and had lost track of time and was just about in the entrance hall when the teacher came out and told them what they would be doing. she listened, they had one chance at apparation and then she would have to do it perfectly. she hoped that she would get it right. she watched as the first person was called in and wondered how much longer it would take until it was her tern, was it alphabetical by first name (in which case she being Briar would be rather soon) or alphabetical by last name, (in which case she would be in quite a while. or even some other random order (maybe age). by this time the first student came out looking rather happy with herself. Briar was just glad that she wasn't next. a few people came in and out, and she was surprising herself by how nervous she was, she knew that she needed to pass this but she wasn't the kind of person to get nervous for an exam. eventually Ms Finch came calling the next student and the name called was "Rowan, Briar" briar got up from where she had been switching between sitting on the bottom step of the staircase and pacing the hall, much like how she paced the cavern before transformation. this somehow felt similar to that the sort of nervous energy.
she entered the hall and looked around trying to work out a good place to apparate to. "so do i have to say where I am going to apparate to?" she asked deciding on at the bottom of the steps o the stage. "I think i will go to the bottom of the steps to the stage" she said taking a few deep breaths to clear her mind of the nervousness. she took a breath gripped her wand tight closed her eyes and turned on the spot. Briar felt a sudden pressure all around her. the breath was pushed out of her a moment later it stopped and she opened her eyes and looked at where she was just behind her was the steps onto the stage where the professors ate, she was a few inches further left than she had aimed but that was probably due to her enthusiastic step. she seemed to have everything in check, her hands were normal and her feet felt like she had all the toes inside their red converse. she looked at the teacher "how was that?" she asked taking a step towards her and the door. hoping that she had passed otherwise she would have to seriously rethink her plans for the holiday.
