WNN has posted the footage of the mysterious assassin’s attack on Oswald Kensington which was foiled by Secretary-elect Aberfoyle, who threw himself in front of the curse. No update yet on the Professor’s condition.

Aberfoyle Wins, is Victim of Assassination Attempt

Storyteller — Mon, 18 Apr 2011 06:28:40 +0000

Professor Aberfoyle prevailed in the special election for Secretary of Magic, but he was gravely injured while saving Senator Kensington, his opponent, from an assassination attempt during his victory party. You can read more about this story in the Morning Oracle.

We know you are all very worried about the Secretary-elect. We will post more details on his condition here when they become available. For now, he is in serious-but-stable condition.

We want to give a big thank you to all the students who attended the fall term for Tales from Avistrum: Fall from Grace; you are the reason that we do this show, and we hope you enjoyed yourselves!

A full recap of the show ~~will be up soon~~ is up now, but we want to give a shout-out to our Quidditch Cup Champions, Enigmus House, and our back-to-back House Cup Champions, Colubrae House! We hope you’re all eager to join us again next year and defend your titles, and we hope Lobostro and Parador are eager to challenge you.

Tri-Wizard Champion crowned at Starfest 2010

Prof. Aberfoyle — Mon, 19 Apr 2010 21:33:18 +0000

Congratulations to Tess Meeks, the champion of the Starfest Tri-Wizard tournament 2010! Tess won our final task, Tri-Wizard Jeopardy, after being selected as the Anime champion from among over 20 qualifiers who passed the first two tasks. For her efforts, Tess has won a full-weekend passes to NanDesuKan 2010, Tales from Avistrum: Fall from Grace (including MileHiCon 42), and Starfest 2011. Well done, Tess!

Our Herbology/Divination and Charms/Potions classes were very well-attended, with no empty seats for either class – congratulations to Professors Deserand, Bloodthorne, Kobiyashi and Voertigern for such good work!

Unfortunately, the trial of Kraven Bloodthorne did not go well. We will post later with more details.

Welcome, all of you who came and visited us at Boo at the Zoo! We sorted around 3,000 new Paradors, Enigmii, Lobostros, and Colubraes. Photos from our Quidditch set will be available at Slide by Tuesday.

If you would like to keep your child’s picture, click on the photograph you want, it will open up in its own page. After you’ve done that, right click on the photograph and you will have an option to “Save” or “Save As” in the pop up menu. Clicking on Save or Save As will enable you to save the photograph to your computer.

Thanks to everyone who joined us for MileHiCon 40! We hope everyone had as much fun this past weekend as we did. A full recap of our show, Tales from Avistrum: The Chalice of Khufu, will be up in a few days, hopefully along with photos.

Starfest 2008 Wrap-up

Prof. Aberfoyle — Thu, 24 Apr 2008 05:12:22 +0000

Thanks to everyone who attended our events at Starfest 2008! We had a great time, and we hope you did, too! Congratulations to our contest winners! We have Quidditch photos up in our new photo gallery. Check them out!

Wizard Jeopardy was the best matchup we’ve seen in the four years we’ve had the game at Starfest. Our winner, Tessa, won a very competitive game with a final score of 10,400 and received a full-weekend pass to Starfest 2009. Genieva, our runner-up, won a weekend pass to the Colorado Renaissance Festival, and Eddie, our third place contestant, took home a lovely witch’s hat and wand.

Our Quidditch champion was Thomas, who won a wonderful Gold Snitch medal after defeating Damion in the finals.

We hope everyone enjoyed the classes, the Quidditch, and the game show, and we look forward to next year’s festivities. If you missed out on your chance to get one of our NQL t-shirts, we’re working on making them available for sale here through the website.
