First Years, Lesson Three: Transfiguration Restrictions and Laws
Edward waited inside the classroom, greeting the first year students cheerfully as they settled. "Good morning! Great to see you all back,"he said with a smile. "No wands today, sorry! We’ve got some theory to cover before the exciting stuff, but I promise it’ll be worth the wait." Ignoring a few groans, he gestured to the board, where the chalk began writing. "Your first year is all about introductions and building a solid foundation. Inanimate to inanimate transfiguration is your starting point, while animate to animate transfiguration forms the backbone for advanced spells like vanishing, conjuring, and eventually human transfiguration."

He paused for those taking notes, then continued. "Human transfiguration, including animagus transformation, is rare and highly regulated by the Ministry. This school, like Uagadou, is known for training animagi, but comes with responsibility. Here’s a list of transfigurative magic, like animagi and apparition, subject to strict laws." The chalk magically moved to write a new list on the board.

Animagi: Requires a license and is heavily regulated. The Ministry has a list of registered animagi, for safety and identification reasons. Any animagi found to not be on the list faces time in Azkaban prison.

Apparition: A license is required to apparate legally. You will learn to apparate in year six, and not a moment before.

Invisibility: The Ministry has tried time and again to keep restrictions on the use of invisibility cloaks and spells. Naturally this is the hardest for them to detect, but be aware restrictions do exist and should be researched thoroughly.

Muggles: The Department of the Misuse of Muggle Artifacts office, also known as Creation of Dangerous Objects Department, attempts to minimise the number of harmful objects created from muggle items. Sometimes they are successful, sometimes not.

Time Travel: This branch is heavily restricted because of the potentially catastrophic consequences. Very few people ever receive permission to travel back in time.

"That's all the time we have for today. Please make sure you have these lists written down, it'll make things much easier! See you all next week."

Homework: RP attendance! Tag @Professor Edward Pirrip if you would like me to interact with your character!
 
Nik sat near the front of the room and listened as the professor talked about the difference branches of magic and was fascinated by how things were playing out as he talked. She took some notes about the branches and tried to keep up. Her handwriting wasn't very good, but she was doing her breath. Animagi was kind of cool, but she didn't think she would ever want to be one, there were too many rules and she didn't want to have to register being an animagus that just seemed silly. Why would she want the ministry knowing everything about her? Right that made no sense. She finished copying it all down and headed out of the class.​
 
Taylor dropped casually into her usual seat in the classroom, ready to do another spell. Except that wasn't what they were doing today unfortunately. "Boo," she sighing as she put her wand back in her pocket. She listened to what the professor was telling them about transfiguration branches and animagus people. She didn't think she quite understood what that was about but it was alright to give it a couple of her thoughts. Then there was the stuff about invisibility which was super interesting. She didn't know why there would be restrictions on that specially, she thought it was something pretty cool. Though she did have a rather nagging question. “Professor? Um, if you mess up human transfiguration, like - accidentally - what happens? Do you just get stuck? Or… explode or something?” She hoped people didn't explode, that sounded really unfortunate.​
