Wouldn't you say Daniel is non-descript and that Potter is mediocre to the last degree?

hahaa now now you two, no PDA in the common room =p
AT LONG LAST!!!!!!!!! WHAT YOU'VE ALL BEEN WAITING FOR!!!

THE (PROPOSED) CHALLENGE
This is a combination of snehin and raven guardia's ideas

Task Description:
Your job is to create two spells for once scenario. The topic: you need to travel either back, or "sideways" in time to a parallel universe, and try to PREVENT a past event from happening. Include a breif description of the spell allowing you to travel in time, as well as a description of the spell allowing you to prevent the monumental event from happening (NOTE: this is hogwarts people...preventing something in the magical world from happening...and please, no cliche "voldemort was never born" ones. Your spell must have something to do with your house!). The spells need to have meaning to them; you need to give me background information as to why you chose the words for the spell; what deeper meaning they have.
Here's my example:

I'm a Slytherin...I'm going to travel back in time, making sure that Crabbe and Goyle never take those cupcakes out of the air so those rotten little Gryffindors couldn't ever have made a polyjuice potion.

Time Travel: "Omnum Evertae"
Why did i chose that: do some research on latin origins and their meanings. id probably say something along the lines of evertae meaning inverse, or backward, and omni meaning one, so one way backwards. something like that

Spell to aid me in the past: "Dessertum Combustia" (obviously not something this corny...you get it)
Description: i chose this spell because its a dessert and combustia is the root word of combust, or explode. id make the pastries disintigrate so no one would ever see them!

GRADING RUBRIC

Background/the "why" to your event : /10
Both spell names: /20
Both spell explanations: /40
Origninality: /10
Thorough/Does it make sense? : /20

Total: /100 points

Any questions about the challenge or scoring; if theres something you do not get, send me a message VIA PM !! hope you guys enjoy it! im looking forward to winning anohter challenge. Big thank you to snehin and raven guardia for contributing to the final topic.

LadyBaronness,
LS

Thanks for getting this up and running LS. I will put my thinking cap on 🙂

The time travel idea was mine. Raven's was the lycanthropy one and snehin's one on death prevention. Omnus means all, every, something like that, but I'm a little rusty.

shhhh, other houses might read what you said ><

thanks for that shaber =) i was just throwing latin words out of whatever there for the example. is this something you all would be willing to do and would serve as a decent challenge?

I can't remember what the last thing I said was. I can't seem to keep up with what I say. Can anyone help me because I'm too lazy to scroll back and look.

I wonder how much a dead language can have changed in the last few years 😛
