CHANCE {Game: Open to All}

[Deleted]

Candy decided to set up something fun to do in the entrance hall, to try and encourage students to join in and have some fun. There were 100 vials on a small table, and the containers of each were charmed so that you couldn't see what was within, that way there would be no cheating based on color.

There were ten different potions in the bottles and they were in a random order. The fun would be seeing who picked up which potion, and what effects they would have.

"C'mon guys! It's a game. Pick a potion, take a drink, and see what it does! And don't worry, I know exactly how to stop all of them." She threw a smile on her face and waited to see who would be first to step up to the challenge.

((OOC: Okay guys, it's easy. All you need to do is pick a random, unlabeled bottle and drink it down! At the end of you post you need a dice roll: click  and type 1-10 into the box that pops up. When you hit reply the number will appear in your post. 

You will not be able to write about drinking the potions AND the effect of it all in one post. You'll have to drink it in the first post to get your dice roll number, then write about the effect in your next post. 

The results go as follows:
1: You laugh uncontrollably
2: You start babbling nonsense
3: You start to dance and have no control over it
4: You feel dizzy and light headed
5: You feel attracted to the first person you see
6: You start hiccup'ing bubbles
7: You make animal noises when you try to speak
8: You start to crave an insane food
9: You start singing loudly
10: You start to twitch. A lot.

HAVE FUN! Any questions, feel free to ask me!))

[ROCHELLE CASTER]

The chill from outside seemed to find its way into the stone castle and attached itself to Rochelle. She shivered her way out of bed to the common room and sat in front of the fire. After an hour of lazy lounging the girl remembered she had an important engagement. Rochelle loved tea and never gave up her chance for it. She knew that it would warm her bones from the harsh cold and she had promised a friend they would meet up for tea time.

If there were something adventurous to do, you could bet Rochelle would sniff it out. That was especially true on the snowed-in winter afternoon. As she ascended the stairs and moved toward the Great Hall, she noticed a strange ruckus from the Entrance Hall. Curious, she stretched her neck for a better look. All she could see was an older girl and a table. Perhaps investigating wouldn't hurt. Rochelle was sure her friend would let her be a tiny bit tardy to their date.

Pick a potion…

The mystery was tempting to the Gryffindor. Her mouth almost watered as she stared at the vials and wondered what magic was within each one. She shuffled closer to the table and her brown eyes met the cork she wished to open.

"I'll try!" Rochelle sang as she skipped up to the bottle she chose. She flashed a grin at the girl hosting the game before she grasped the potion. The cork popped lightly and in a swift movement, she gulped the contents down and awaited the reaction.

[AUGUSTINE A. COREY]

"I'll be right back." It was lie she knew it was a lie, but that didn't mean that the suits of Armor were going to tattle on her. Then again they might not need too as she felt the blush rise to her cheeks. She should just be honest, but it was difficult to hurt peoples feelings particularly when those people where younger and looked up to you. She should be staying put, and trying to play their little game of Monopoly which to her seemed dreadfully difficult as it had taken all three of the second years to decipher the instructions and agree on them.



However when they started arguing over the little trinkets that served as markers she found herself bored and looking for an out, Naturally her thoughts went to practicing for the game on Saturday with that she headed down the stairs toward the great oak doors when she heard the laughter of people and the cheers wondering what that was about she quickly found herself greeted with the the reason for the commotion.



Not being one to miss out on festivities she soon found herself in line behind Rochelle and eagerly waiting for her turn to make her selection, dancing back and forth on the tip toes she swayed watching eagerly as Rochelle took her potion. Standing before the the selection her fingers dancing before many tops before landing on the bottom corner left bottle she quickly selected it and eyed it carefully.. Popping the top she threw it back in a solid gulp in a manner that was similar to the way she took shots of strong fire whiskey.
Thankies

[FIONA ALAMETH]

Being Headmistress didn't mean that one had to hide herself up in her office all day. Three hours seemed sufficient to Fiona when it came to going over lesson and assignment plans that each professor updated her on weekly. None of the students were working, Fiona guessed, why should she stress herself? Even hard-working serious adults needed down time. She rolled up the parchment she was reading and stuffed it into a drawer in her desk. The drawer slammed shut at a heavy move by Fiona and the various items sitting on the desktop wobbled with the force. Irritated and, for once in her life, bored she lifted from her chair and rushed for the door.

A wrinkled hand reached for her cloak from the rack, knowing that outside it was a wintery discord . She shook her head changing her mind and decided against it. It was too cold for an old coot like her, she reasoned. Lately she seemed to feel more and more sluggish. Years before she could almost keep up with the spritely students. Now it was apparent Fiona was getting older and more frail. Locking herself up in her office everyday wasn't helping and it sure wasn't healthy. A walk around the castle would do her some good.

Familiar with everything in the castle, Fiona's attempt at entertainment failed within minutes. For 32 years she was a professor and for seven years a student. That's enough time for anyone to learn Hogwarts thoroughly. The witch sighed as she headed toward the Entrance Hall, her last stop before exploring the dungeons and maybe sneaking into the Kitchen for a mid-meal snack. There she was amazed by a sight she never thought she would see.

Candy McKenna stood by a table of, what she claimed, various potions for some sort of game she cooked up. Fiona was astonished and intrigued by the seventh year's innovation. The thin smile that was the elder witch's neutral expression grew into a bright grin. Silently she watched as the spirited Rochelle Caster and quirky Augustine Corey both tested their luck with the serums. The headmistress almost gasped with excitement as she awaited the responses by each girl.

"I must say, Miss McKenna what a clever practice of potion mastery. Did you brew these yourself?" Fiona cheerfully addressed the Slytherin girl, fascinated by the interactive lottery Candy created. "20 points to Slytherin for such ingenuity. Now, if I could, I will take a go at it myself."

Picking up a bottle, she swigged it down without hesitation and winced at the flavor.

Candy wasn't all that surprised when the first person to approach her little station turned out to be a Gryffindor. It seemed fitting, actually. They were supposed to be the daring ones after all, so why wouldn't they take a chance on a game like this?

"I'll try!"

"Great!" Candy returned a smile to the Gryffindor, watching as she picked up a potion and wasted no time in gulping it down. One potion down. No soon had the first girl drank the potion did another appear, and Candy motioned to the table. "Any one you like." And hopefully she'd pick up one with a different effect.

Candy couldn't keep the smile off her face as she waited for the effects to kick in, but her smile faltered momentarily when she looked past the two girls to see the Headmistress heading her way. Oh dear... surely she couldn't get in trouble for this... it was just a fun game, after all.

"I must say, Miss McKenna what a clever practice of potion mastery. Did you brew these yourself? 20 points to Slytherin for such ingenuity. Now, if I could, I will take a go at it myself."

For a moment Candy couldn't keep the shock off her face. Twenty points? Wow... and there she'd just been thinking she was about to get into trouble! And who'd have thought Professor Alameth would be the sort to join in the game? "Thank you, professor! And yes, I made them. And tested them. They all do exactly what they're supposed to do." She wouldn't have risked a bad potion, even if it meant she had to suffer through a few flawed ones to get here.

((OOC: You can thread out the effects for as long as you like, just let me know when you want it stopped so Candy can get the right spell or counter potion to stop it for you! And then feel free to drink another, if you're up for it ;P ))

Raphael was never one to pass up on a challenge when he saw one, and a challenge involving potions of unknown effect? Well, how was he supposed to say no to that? He ducked around a few people and headed towards the little table, grinning. "'Scuse me, ladies." It wasn't until he'd picked up a potion and turned back around that he actually took notice of the Headmisstress standing there. Ah, authority having fun, eh? "Cheers!"

He quickly popped the cork out of the little vial and tipped it back, downing the contents. It tasked like nothing he'd ever tasted before, but hopefully he'd get something that would have a fun effect.

[ARIANA MORGAN]

Ariana walked out from the dungeons and into the entrance hall to face one massive crowd of people. She raised her eyebrows, having never seen such a huge crowd in Hogwarts at one time. Digging her way through the mass of people she finally found the centre of the entertainment. Of course, it had to be Candy. Who else would come up with such an inventive and entertaining game to offer to the students of Hogwarts. Ariana's day was going rather miserably to be quite honest, so what was the harm in trying to have fun? If anyone at all wanted to make fun of her for attempting to enjoy herself, she would make sure they would be severely delt with no matter who it was. 

Smiling at Candy, Ariana walked up at took the vial of potion, having no idea what the effect would be. She just hoped it would be too horrid!
