All right guys, in an effort to increase activity we're doing TWO random pairings this time around. The first pair is Sasha Vladimirovich and Kirsten Nordlund. Both are Grey Path, majoring in Magical Comprehension, so hopefully you guys will find something to talk about. The second pairing is Erika Hasdeu and Sorina Machvaya. Both Romanian Rom, hopefully that'll be incentive as well! Please start a thread within a week. Contact each other etc or just toss up a random post for the other player to join!

Plot points going on right now:

1. The werewolf scare is still a big thing. I will make a headmistress announcement about that shortly.

2. The Dueling Club. Since Di left, we no loner have anyone running the club. Time to drop that idea? NO FRIGGIN' WAY. We're not letting that idea go; it was too good! So here's what we propose: The club will be moderated by the NPC Combative Magic professors, but actually RUN by our Eighth Year Combative Magic majors. Right now I think that's just Vincenc Reznik and Mikhail Baikov, who possibly wouldn't mind working together? If anyone has any suggestions about it or what have you, let us know. We can pick up where Di left off.

3. The fifth years - Care of Magical Creatures this coming week is focused on Thestrals. Feel free to make a thread about it if you play a fifth year.

4. The EVENT is still coming. Hopefully this coming Friday. I do hope everyone will be willing and able to participate.

5. ?? Got something you want to do? An idea you want to share? Comment, IM, or email us! We're not the only ones running the show here!

Time for our first random pairing. And this one isn't so random when I think about it.

Roksana Dmitrievicha - 8th year, Light Path Combative Magic and Dahlia Kiesl - 5th year, planning to choose Light Path Combative Magic.

Players please converse amongst yourselves and start a thread within a week and see where it goes!
