Persephone, who always sat by the back. Had heard the cry. But not bothered too look. Who knew what the professor had in his room. She just frowned at Luke, he wouldn't pretend to be afraid of anything, she was in fact deadly afraid of something. "You don't need a dementor around to produce that spell, you idiot" she commented. She took a deep breath and sure enough, all she could see was the people who killed her parents coming for her and her sister. She was deadly afriad of them coming after her sister. Not really her, but her sister had done nothing, nothing wrong. "Riddikulos" she called and it turned into a puppet show.

Jerramy watched student after student doing the beating back the boggart he looked at luek though and shook his head not believing that the dementor was his fear he just looked too confident. He walked around and packed up the boggart and waved his wand sending it back to the back of the room. "Ok then outstanding work so 10 points to all houses with an extra 2 to slytherin." he sighed not really wanting to say it but he had to give credit where it was due.
"right then Roxy as you can see over there will teach you a bit about werewolf's go on roxy dont be shy," he nodded to her and smiled waiting for her to come to the front.

Roxanna took a deep breath and stood, from the back. She walked to the front and forced a smile. "As Proffessor Nitli said, I'm going to talk to you about Werewolfs" she began. "A werewolf is a human who, upon the rising of the full moon, turns into a fearsome near-wolf. Werewolves can be distinguished from regular wolves by several small distinguishing characteristics, such as the pupils of the eyes, snout shape, and tufted tail. At all other times, they appear as normal humans, though will often seem to be ill as the full moon approaches." She stopped.
"The condition is inflicted when someone is bitten by a turned wolf. There is at the moment no known cure, and for those muggleborns in here Wolfsbane is in my opinion like a paracetamol - keeps the symptoms at bay for a while, but isn't a cure." she stopped like her drying lips and carried on "James Potter had a werewolf friend Remus Lupin, who was bitten as a child by Fenir Greyback." She paused. She'd included a lot of information so cut down a bit, she missed out a few sections.
"Werewolves are generally regarded with fear and disgust by wizarding society. It is not uncommon for persons known to be werewolves to be shunned by society and discriminated against within the wizarding world. It is very difficult for a werewolf to get a job in the wizarding community, especially after the passing of restrictive anti-werewolf legislation by the prejudiced Dolores Umbridge in the 1990s and that's all" She smiled and then walked up to Professor Nitli "Is it okay for me to leave?" she asked politely.
