The round

The Spell DC for this test is:
First Year - 10
Second Year - 12
Third Year - 14

Artemis stood in the middle of the dueling podium, twirling his wand around his fingers as if he were a young student yet again. He carried a smirk on his lips as the students who would be spectators stood around waiting and talking among themselves in excitement. The Charms professor was excited himself, though he was more adept at keeping that excitement at bay. This would be his very first time moderating a duel, after all. 

Though it wouldn't be his first duel. He was sure it wouldn't be his last duel either. 

Artemis looked toward the door where the participants would enter from and received a signal from one of the older students he allowed to be his assistant for the day. The 2 teams were ready and so were the spectators. Standing up straight, Artemis touched his wand to his throat and cast the Amplifying Charm on himself before gesturing to one door.  

"Ladies and gentlemen! Welcome to another spectacular day in the Dueling Club. Today, we have a unique duel between two groups within the Slytherin House. Team one will consist of @Bridget Collins and @Thora Larkston!" Artemis introduced the first team and waited for the clapping and cheering to subside before he nodded and held out his hand to the other door on the other side of the stage. "Team two will consist of @Illowy Magnard and @Alexx Séverin!" More cheers sounded and Artemis held up a hand after a brief applause and cheering ensued. 

"I need not introduce myself, as most of you should know who I am by now, so I believe we should get this party started! Teams, your job is to magically defeat your opponents. Keep the dueling clean but make sure that you think and discuss with your teammate how you should proceed. Strategy is key in team dueling. You all know the rules so do not break them. You will automatically forfeit your right to finish this duel if you break this rule whatsoever." 

Stepping away from the students to stand in the protective area with the spectators, Artemis raised his hand and lowered it swiftly. "Begin!" 

Any of you can post anytime. No posting order. But all of you will only have 72 hours time to post, starting from the time of this post, do not wait for others. Fail to do that and you will be considered as fainted.   Remember to have fun.

Thora stood awkwardly in the Duelling Club room, shifting back and forth on her feet and flipping her wand over in her hands. Although she clearly remembered signing up for duelling, she felt as if she was in a daze as she arrived in the fourth-floor room. Why was she here? Duelling was the near polar opposite of Thora's normally kind disposition, yet she found herself at the duelling club, running through a list of spells in her head.
Far faster than the redhead would've hoped, Professor Vernatis, the Charms Professor, took center stage and introduced himself as the moderator of the match. Apparently drama was needed in the duelling process, as Thora and her teammate, Bridget, were forced to enter onto the stage through a door off to the right side of the stage. The auburn-headed girl pasted a nervous smile onto her face and strode onto the stage, legs shaking.
As Professor Vernatis read over the extensive list of rules, the second-year forced herself to take deep breaths. She shot a smile at Bridget Collins--a girl she had met only twice, and her duelling partner. They obviously didn't know each other well, but Thora hoped they could work together well. As both girls--Thora and Bridget--had limited knowledge as new second years, Thora didn't necessarily expect to win. But all of the girls duelling were Slytherins, best known for determination and wit. This match would be intersting...Although Thora wanted more time to prepare mentally, she knew the word would come. 
"Begin." the Professor commanded the four girls upon the stage. After freezing a moment with a heavy dose of stage fright, Thora sprang into action. Trying to think fast on her feet, she fired a quick spell, taking care to pronounce each word carefully. She didn't want to learn her lesson the hard way. Hopefully--hopefully, it would hit.
The redhead moved her wand in the shape of a teardrop, roughly in the direction of Illowy--another second year.
"Mucus ad Nauseam!" Thora shouted, trying to steady her voice.

Action: Cast Curse of the Bogies (Mucus ad Nauseam) at Illowy Magnard

action: cast Flippendo | the knockback jinx at @Thora Larkston

To be entirely fair, Alexx didn't know what she was doing here. She liked Quidditch, not Duelling. However, ever the attention seeker, as well as someone who throws themselves into every position necessary to achieve, Alexx simply could not resist putting herself in this spot. She was cocky, and probably a bit too much for her own good.

She was confident, and held herself as such. Chin high, eyes narrowed, eyebrows at ease. Her shoulders were back, aligned with her hips, back completely straight. Alexx held the perfect posture, and looked beyond sure of herself. She was a mixture of elegance as well as determination. She was a snake in the garden.

Professor Vernatis was absolutely the last person who she wanted to be overseeing this duel. She was still embarassed about her behavior of last time, so this really wasn't much better. If she were to embarass herself at all, especially if she were to not succeed, then that would only distance her more from the professor. She would have much preferred if Taco Bell guy were the one watching over, or perhaps the ever-eccentric Olphie B. Anyone but this particular professor.

Finally deciding that she couldn't change it, she decided that it was time. Stepping up, nodding as she was announced, she listened to what the man had to say, and then noting his call of, "Begin."

It was time.

Who could she go after first? Her eyes landed on Bridget. These poor girls were up against someone older than them! That didn't seem fair, but since when did Alexx care about "fair"? She smirked, hoping that it would disguise her fear of missing.

Her wrist flicked itself in the long, swirling motion that she had been taught during her second year. "Expelliarmus!" She declared, aiming at Bridget. If she could do this- if she could get Bridget without a wand- she could kick her when she was down. She just had to pray to someone, whatever God was listening, that she didn't get hit.

2nd Round

The Spell DC for this test is:
First Year - 10
Second Year - 12
Third Year - 14

Artemis watched from behind the protective barrier as the four girls each sent a spell at one another. It was an interesting combination of attacks and the Charms professor was impressed. He watched as Miss @Alexx Séverin successfully cast a disarming spell at Miss @Bridget Collins , but unfortunately it missed its target and the third year Slytherin was then set on fire by the second year as she cast Incendio at the older girl and he cringed. 
 
"That's going to smart. Let's pray that she knows how to stop, drop, and roll," the man muttered to himself, thankful that his words couldn't be heard over the loud cheering of the spectators. He and the third year didn't really end their meeting on good terms last semester and he didn't quite fancy being on her bad side anymore than he already was. And to be hit with a spell by a younger class man, Artemis had to wonder if the older girl was feeling a burn to her pride and not just to her physical body. 

Turning to the other two girls, Artemis noticed that Miss @Illowy Magnard  was sniffling quite frequently and remembered that Miss @Thora Larkston had cast the Curse of the Bogies upon the girl. She wouldn't be able to get rid of that nasty cold inducing spell. Not unless she passed out and was taken to the hospital wing or she happened to have a potion to cure it. The other possibility is to have the spell nullified, but he wasn't sure if the girl knew the counter spell to Mucus ad Nauseam. Her Flippendo didn't work against the smaller girl she chose to focus on either.  The four girls truly were giving their all in this battle. He watched the girls from team one still manage to dodge the attacks aimed at them- even after their normal agility that normally gave them a head start had failed them- and smirked as the four girls continued their duel.

Action: cast Incendio at @Thora Larkston

Fire. Alexx was on fire. How had this managed to happen? Someone, a year younger than her, no less, was already kicking her ass in a duel? This was simply unacceptable. She needed time. Lots of time. She could stand to extinguish herself later. Her best bet, right now, was getting them blind.

She cringed as she raised her arm again, not yet ready to make the right decision. "Extinguo!" She announced, hoping this could at least work. At the last minute, she turned her wand back onto herself, making an attempt to save herself. It wouldn't buy her any time, and she'd better hope that she could bring it back after this round, otherwise, she was fucked.

How badly she had wanted to cast something else! Get them off of their guard! But she had to try and take care of herself first. So far, she was lucky with successful spell casts. But if one of these little kids tried to hit her with it again... Oh boy, would Alexx be mad!

ACTIONS:
A desperate attempt at extinguishing herself | Extinguo

Her spell hit! The redhead was good at charms, so she had hoped for a successful casting. As the green light hit the other second year, Thora's confidence was boosted. She was done with being nervous. Steely determination washed over the redhead's face, giving it a sharper look. 
"Incendio!" she heard the Irish girl opposite of her say, through sniffles and sneezes. Oh no, not fire... she thought. Observing Alexx, the third year, who had been hit by Bridget's Incendio, the results did not look good. 
So, Illowy wanted to go after Thora again. Fine. The redhead would be more than happy to do the same. Pointing her aspen wand at the girl across from her, she yelled, "Rictusempra!" 

Action: Cast Tickling Charm [Rictusempra] at @Illowy Magnard
