Long locks of red hair flow from Rowena's scalp. With a skinny form and pinched nose, the woman is quite beautiful, although mean. Wearing red most of the time, the only other colors she wears are black and white.
[Personality:]Un-yielding, Kind to those she favors, Rude to those she does not, Students of mean nature take a liking to her, and her to them, but those who are kind usually are scarred of Rowena, and Rowena mean to them.
[Strengths:]The Dark Arts are a real strength in Rowena's arsenal of magic. Although she is extremly gifted at Charms and Potions as well. Dueling, is a thing that Rowena is famous for, and in a duel, the woman does not hold back using unfair, horrid curses.
[Weaknesses:]Although Rowena is a very gifted witch, Defence Against the Dark Arts, is one that the woman does not excell.

[History:]Before attending Durmstrang, Rowena grew up with four older brothers and a younger sister. Showing a strong ability of magic, Rowena practiced using wandless magic all she could, wereas most would simply play with this. When gaining her wand and placed in Durmstrang, Rowena was the top of her year, and mastered every spell she casted in the first four trys. Spending most of her time in the library, the girl was a know-it-all and got top marks on every wizarding test she took. After graduating school, Rowena worked as the Head of the Apparition Test Centre. Taking a leave of absence, Rowena became a world wide, dueling champion. After Rowena fullfilled her dream, she came to work at Durmstrang, teaching what was her favorite subjcet, when she was there, the Dark Arts.

You are teaching a lesson. Give an example of your writing style and post part of a lesson. (For example: teach the effects of certain potions, demonstrate a spell, etc...)
Rowena walked around the room. "Now today children, we shall be learning the Blinding Curse. A guess at what this spell accomplishes, for the few of you who have half a brain, is of course, that it blinds the target." Slapping the head of a chattering student lightly, Rowena held out her hand as she continued talking while the student gave the note they were holding. "This incantation is fairly simple, for it is made up of but two words." the students flinched, (she ignited the note on fire).
Pointing at the chalk board with her free hand, the sound of fingernails across it sounded through the room as two words were sratched into place. "Caecelle Inimicious. Now, after I show you the spell, a animal will be placed in front of you, these creatures are what you shall practice on today." With a twirl of her wand, a lizard materialized atop her silver desk. Pointing her wand between the anphibian's eyes, she hissed, "Caecell Inimicious." With a small gasp from the students behind her, the lizard began to twitch as it frantically attempted to peer around the classroom. "Now, the countercurse for this is but a simple one," pointing her wand at the lizard once more, she plainly said, as it was scribbling itself on the blackboard, "Concedio Animadico."
