Professor Jape
🃏

You choose Offensive Magic with Professor Comicus Jape.

You find the classroom after only a few wrong turns, and take a seat next to Aaron. You frown to see Snako Malboy from Snakefang class sitting down at the desk next to you. He notices you frowning and sneers back.

"Now then children!" Professor Jape calls out at the front of the class. "Now then, now then! It's so lovely to meet you all."

Professor Jape is wearing a black cape with a red velvet lining and has a very pale almost white face. He smiles at the class warmly and gives a little wink.

"Today we are going to learn some offensive magic. Now as you probably know offensive magic can be extremely dangerous. But that's not to say we can't have a bit of a laugh and a giggle as we go along eh? Eh children? Eh?"

Professor Jape makes a loud high pitched giggling noise. Some of the other children laugh back nervously.

"In fact I always like to break the ice with my new children with a joke. Hands up if you want to hear one of my jokes children."
