Welcome, welcome to your final year of Care of Magical Creatures as a First-Fourth Year!!!! I'm Professor Jesse and I am going to be your Instructor for this wonderful year! Please be aware that this year the Magical Creatures that we study will be more dangerous than anything you've ever encountered... even if you've studied them in DADA!!! Each week we are going to be studying one creature - except from this week where we will study two ![]() Demiguise (XXXX) The Demiguise is a peaceful, herbivorous creature that can make itself invisible. It is found in the Far East, but only wizards and witches trained in their capture can even see them. It resembles an ape with large, black eyes and long, silky hair. Demiguise pelts are highly sought after as the hair can be woven into Invisibility cloaks. Cloaks made from their hair eventually turn opaque, losing their invisibility effects as time passes. The Demiguise's ability to make itself invisible is used to symbolise the number zero, in the runic alphabet. Erkling (XXXX) Erklings are elfish creatures, three feet tall on average (making them larger than gnomes) with pointed faces, which have a particular affinity for the taste of children. Their high pitch cackles are particularly entrancing to children, and they use this to lure them away from their guardians to eat them. These creatures also enjoy shooting darts at unsuspecting victims. Originating from the Black Forest in Germany, the difference between this creature and many others is that they can speak Human-language. Homework 1. Describe a Demiguise. 2. How do they play apart in Ancient Runes? 3. Which Ministry of Magic has reduced the number of Erkling attacks? 4. What did Newt Scamander say about Erklings? |
