Mark opened the door of the office in the dungeons and the students entered.
The professor looked as each took a seat and when they finally fell silent, he started his welcome speech.
"Hello! I am glad to see that many old faces have gotten the right amount of points to follow my class this year.
This year, for you who are new to the class, you will be working with 7th years too. This is because the difference between your levels is very small.
You already know me since we have been working together for quite some time, so you know the rules:
*) No fighting in class
*) No stealing from my ingredients or the one of your peers
*) No cheating during tests
*) No homework equals a big zero.
So, to start the lesson, you have each in your desks, 3 kinds of powdered ingredients. Try to tell me who they are based on their smell."
He checked the hourglass in the wall.
"You have 60 minutes to do the class work. As home work, you have a paragraph on each of the ingredients." Mark said and sat on his desk.
OOC
Each if you has different ingredients from the others. You may decide which ingredients your character have.

Lindsey entered the Potions classroom with her fellow students. She liked Potions well enough, but it was a difficult subjec.t It wasn't one of her favorites either, but she could handle it.
After the professor explained what they were supposed to do, Lindsey went to her usual seat, and examined the three powders left on her desk. She was about to inhale a deep sniff of whatever was in the first jar, when something obvious popped into her head. She raised her hand, and asked, "Professor, are there any powders here that would be dangerous to smell? For example, the herb Restforth(couldn'tthink of anything, made it up  )? If you were to inhale that, you'd be asleep for weeks."

Mark smirked at the girl that had asked the question.
"Five points to Gryffindor for the quick thinking. No, there are no dangerous herbs here, not any that causes danger from smelling any way."

The Ravenclaw boy entered the classroom, and saw enough to hear that Gryffindor had gotten five more points. The boy walked to the back of class away from everyone else. The male tilted his head slightly toward the left, an smirked. Slowly the male took his time, but finally the male looked the powders in front of him the male picked one of the and smelt one. After smelling it the male raised his hand and spoke saying, "Professor I believe one of my powders are Dragon Horn." Slowly placing the one that he thought he had figured out to the side the male picked another one up after he looked at it, an smelt that one too. Not able to deiced whether if it was crushed Ashwinder Eggs or crushed Doxy Eggs. The male placed it off to the side, and picked the last one up, and examined it. After thinking it through the male thought it could be Asphodel Roots that had been crushed, or Gilly Weed that had been crushed into powder. The male continued to examine the two powders in front of him.
[OOC: Then go to Yahoo if it doesn't work there then go to MSN. It worked for me.]

Lily entered her class with her usual cold eyes, and went near the Ravenclaw boy. The female listened to the professor half way, but nearly fell asleep. For she was a Seventh Year student, and had heard this speech a few times. Slightly frowning the female pushed a lock of her blonde wavy hair out of her face, and looked at the powders. Slowly she picked on that looked black, but could of been navy blue. Slowly the female picked the powder up, and smelt it. The female slightly tilted her head once again, and sighed. Taking her time the female thought Could it be Black Beetle Eyes that have been crushed into power...? Yet I should take the chance, and raise my hand...later on..." Lily did not want to make herself look like an idiot, so she placed the powder torwards the left hand of the desk at where she sat. Lily then picked another one up, an examined it for some time. Slowly picking it up the female smelt it, and quickly knew that it was crushed Dragon Claws.

Lindsey leaned over her three containers of powder, and rasied one to her nose. She sniffed at it for quite some time, racking her brain, before she could identify it. The smell was peppery, though not like cinnamon or pepper. It also smelled woody, like a tree. Some sort of tree plant, perhaps? Sniffing it once more, Lindsey clapped a hand ot her mouth. She ought to know that scent, she should! Then it suddenly came to her.....
-"Masterwort," she breathed. "It's powdered Masterwort."
Labeling the jar with a piece of not even one form Potions classes. It was one she smelled almost every day. "Chocolate?" she asked herself in a whisper. "No way! Not cho- waitwaitwait!!!!" Lindsey tumbed through her mind, stopping at one of the herbs in her long list of memorized OWL/NEWT information. "It's Algarroba! The chocolate parchment and setting it to the side, Lindsey progressed to the next beaker of powder. She took a hearty sniff, and her nose was flooded with a sickeningly sweet smell. A familiar smell, and herb!"
Gleefully labeling the jar, Lindsey moved on with a smile on her face. One more and she would be done. She picked up the next jar, and sniffed it carefully. A citrus-y scent filled her nose, it smelled delightfully good. What kind of herb or ingredient would smell like THAT? she wondered. Sniffing it several more times, Lindsey hesitantly labeled it "Feverfew". She thought it smelled much the same. When she was done, Lindsey approached Professor Patrick's desk.
"Sir, I believe my powders are Masterwort, Algarroba, and Feverfew. Is that all we need to do, identify them? If so, I can go ahead and get started on my homework."

The male noticed the Gryffindor female near him, but ignored her and went back to work. Quietly the male picked the one he was not sure of, and smelt it once again. Quickly he realized that it was Crushed Dragon Eggs. smirking the male picked the final one up, and examined it. Quickly the knew that it was Asphodel Roots that had been crushed. Raising his hand the male spoke in a dull bored voice, "I believe my other two powdered ingredients are crushed Dragon Eggs, and Asphodel Roots that also have been crushed. Now that I have found out my other two powders sir may I start my homework?"

Mark saw the head students aproach him and tell him the ingredients. He checked the list and nodded.
"Yes, both of you have identified them correctfully. Yes you may start the homework if you like..." he told them.
OOC You may also invent the ingredients and their powers.

Slowly the male allowed a smirk to cross his face. Quickly the male started to think about the powers of what the three powders may do and cause. Slowly the male started to scribble things down onto the piece of paper in front of him. The started to get bored of writing, and leaned against his left hand. Sighing the male continued you write more things down. Sighing the male looked at the seventh Gryffindor female near himself, and smirked. He knew that the female may need help, but couldn't for she should figure the ingredients be herself. He quickly smirked once again to see that the Head Girl had gotten her powders ingredients too.
[OOC: Heh...thank you.]
