Welcome to Charming, where swirling petticoats, the language of flowers, and old-fashioned duels are only the beginning of what is lying underneath…
After a magical attempt on her life in 1877, Queen Victoria launched a crusade against magic that, while tidied up by the Ministry of Magic, saw the Wizarding community exiled to Hogsmeade, previously little more than a crossroad near the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. In the years that have passed since, Hogsmeade has suffered plagues, fires, and Victorian hypocrisy but is still standing firm.
Thethe year is now 1894. It’s time to join us and immerse yourself in scandal and drama interlaced with magic both light and dark.

7th March, 1891 — Hogsmeade Memorial Ballroom
An interesting bracket — a Hogwarts professor against a Hogwarts matron. Victor did not know either of them well enough to know if they were of the same house, but it was a thought that passed through his mind as he gestured to the blonde witch. "Miss Sykes, if you would be so kind as to begin."

Connie smiled at her opponent, deciding that it was altogether more pleasant to be duelling a friend and colleague than a stranger. At least she knew if the Professor won it was because she was a worthy winner and Connie had not entirely mucked up her attempt. After showing proper decorum Connie cast a fully body bind.
The previous day and a half of matches were child's play compared to what Angelica faced now. It was thrilling to know she would have to bring every skill in her arsenal for this match, to compete with a friend. Angelica raised a mirrored shield, hoping to reflect the spell back at Connie.

The Hogwarts Matron's spell worked like a shot, though so did Mrs. Vorona's, and it was the blonde witch who ended up in a full body bind instead of her intended recipient.
Victor waved his wand to undo the spell. "This point goes to Mrs. Vorona who will commence our next round. Mrs. Vorona, when Miss Sykes has quite recovered, please begin."

Angelica trusted her magic, but it was still a shock to come out unscathed against her friend. Hoping to close this bout out in two spells, Angelica paid homage to their former house and sent jets of water, in the form of snakes, rocketing toward her compatriot. Perhaps, Constance would forgive her, eventually.

Victor watched as Mrs. Vorona was immediately turned to stone. "Miss Sykes takes this point. Miss Sykes when you're ready please commence our tiebreaker." he said as he restored Mrs. Vorona to her proper self.

Mrs. Vorona's stunning spell hit Miss Sykes full in the chest and the blonde crumpled. "This match goes to Mrs. Vorona," Victor announced as the healers quickly revived Miss Sykes. "Congratulations Mrs. Vorona." And with that, Victor announced the match closed.
