Knight Bus

The **Knight Bus** is a triple-decker, purple AEC Regent III RT that assists stranded individuals of the wizarding community through public transportation. It operates at a very fast speed and obstacles will jump out of its way. To hail the bus, a witch or wizard must stick their wand hand in the air in the same manner that a Muggle might do while hailing a Muggle Bus in the UK, though it is possible to book tickets for travel on the bus in advance.

## History

The Knight Bus is a relatively modern invention in wizarding society, which sometimes (though it will rarely admit it) takes ideas from the Muggle world. The need for some form of transportation that could be used safely and discreetly by the underage or the infirm had been felt for a while and many suggestions had been made (sidecars on taxi-style broomsticks, carrying baskets slung under Thestrals) all of them vetoed by the British Ministry of Magic Finally the Knight Bus was first commissioned in 1865. The idea was proposed by then- Minister Dugald McPhail.

While some wizards (mainly Pure-blood fanatics) announced their intention of boycotting what was dubbed ‘this Muggle-esque outrage’ in the letters page of the *Daily Prophet*, the Knight Bus proved hugely popular with most of the community and remains busy to this day.

During the early 1990s, the Knight Bus' conductor was Stan Shunpike, who greets passengers and handles baggage, and was driven by Ernie Prang.

## Description

Inside, during the night, the Knight Bus has beds, curtained windows and candles burning in brackets beside each bed. It cost Harry 11 sickles to get a ticket to London from Surrey, but for thirteen Sickles he could have a cup of hot chocolate, while fifteen would get him a hot water bottle and a toothbrush in any colour. During the day, there are just seats that are apparently not bolted down. The bus does not seem to have much in the way of safety features, as passengers and luggage alike are being thrown around the inside of the bus during its haphazard manoeuvres. The driver seat is more of an armchair than what a Muggle-vehicle's car seat would be. It may have a powerful Imperturbable Charm placed on it so objects can leap out of its way. The bus does not travel underwater but can go anywhere on land.

Due to the haphazard manners of the bus' designs and services, the hot chocolate would end up spilling all over the place when served. Despite the Knight Bus being a popular travelling method for the wizarding community that kept it busy to this day, most of its passengers seem very pleased to get off when they finally arrive at their stop.

## Etymology

The Knight Bus is named after the various night bus services throughout Great Britain, as well as a play on the word "knight", as it gives the connotation that the vehicle comes to the rescue of those who need it.
Magical Law Enforcement Patrol

> "*BORED BY ROUTINE WAND-WORK? LOOKING FOR MORE THRILLS? THE MAGICAL LAW ENFORCEMENT SQUAD WOULD LIKE TO HEAR FROM YOU!*"
> ― Advert in the *Daily Prophet*[source]
>
>

The **Magical Law Enforcement Squad** was a subdivision of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement in the Ministry of Magic, comprised of a team of wizards and witches tasked with general law enforcement. Trained Hit Wizards were apart of the Squad and were dispatched to deal with high-profile arrests.

Alastor Gumboil handles applications for Hit Witches and Hit Wizards from room 919 at the Ministry.

## History

> "*Nobody but trained Hit Wizards from the Magical Law Enforcement Squad would have stood a chance against Black once he was cornered.*"
> ― The Squad is mentioned[source]
>
>

The Magical Law Enforcement Squad was headed by Bob Ogden in the 1920s. Ogden ventured to Little Hangleton to arrest Morfin Gaunt, who had been using magic against local Muggles. Morfin and his father Marvolo resisted arrest, however; thus Ogden later returned with support and arrested both Gaunts.

The *Daily Prophet* reported in its 29 November 1926 issue that the Magical Law Enforcement Patrol was currently recruiting.

In November, 1981 Hit Wizards from the Magical Law Enforcement Squad were dispatched to deal with the cornered Sirius Black, who was suspected of killing 12 muggles and Peter Pettigrew. It was believed that Black was deranged and only these trained Hit Wizards were able to deal with him.

During a conversation in the Three Broomsticks, the then Minister for Magic, Cornelius Fudge mentioned the Squad when talking of Sirius Black and his capture.

Arthur Weasley mentioned to Harry Potter, after the latter's disciplinary hearing in 1995, that the Magical Law Enforcement Patrol would deal with the culprit behind the Regurgitating Toilets in Bethnal Green, a prediction in which Arthur was sadly mistaken, as Willy Widdershins cut a deal with the Minister to spy on Harry and the members of Dumbledore's Army in order to escape punishment for his own activities

The Squad made arrests after rioting in Chipping Clodbury broke out during a meeting between the Brotherhood of Goblins (B.O.G.) and the Ministry to discuss goblin rights.

They also handled security at the Holyhead Harpies vs. Puddlemere United Quidditch match on Ilkley Moor hoping to avoid the trouble that had occurred at previous matches — even taking the extraordinary step of confiscating wands from fans — but trouble ensued anyway.

Like Muggle police patrols, the Magical Law Enforcement Squad appeared to be tasked with conventional law enforcement tasks. Other sub-departments of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement, such as the Auror Office, dealt with specialised magical crimes.

* 17 years of age or older
* Five or more O.W.L.s including Defence Against the Dark Arts

Murtlap Essence

> "*Here. Soak your hand in that, it's a solution of strained and pickled Murtlap tentacles, it should help.*"

Mrs Skower’s All-Purpose Magical Mess Remover

> "*Phew! I'd know that strong, acrid smell anywhere. This must be a jar of Mrs Skower's All-Purpose Magical Mess Remover.*"
> ― Mathilda Grimblehawk[source]
>
>

**Mrs Skower’s All-Purpose Magical Mess Remover** is a magical cleaning solution. An advertisement for it at the Quidditch World Cup in 1994 featured the slogan "No Pain, No Stain!" According to Mathilda Grimblehawk, the solution has a rather distinctive strong, acrid smell. Muggle Laura Thorn said the smell reminded her "of hospitals and dentists".

Argus Filch tried unsuccessfully to remove the words which Ginny Weasley painted on wall of the second-floor corridor when she was being possessed by Tom Riddle's diary at Hogwarts with Mrs Skower’s All-Purpose Magical Mess Remover. As a Squib, Filch may have relied on the product quite heavily, particularly since a whole crate of it was kept stored in the school's broom closet.

Rita Skeeter rested her parchment on this crate when she interviewed Harry Potter inside the broom cupboard just before the start of the Wand weighing ceremony in 1994.

## Behind the scenes

* The surname Skower is a play on the word *scour*, which means "to clean by hard rubbing."
* The name is spelled as "Scower" in the Template:TCG, but has been spelled "Skower" in all appearances in the books to date.

Magical Maintenance Department

> "*Those are enchanted windows. Magical Maintenance decide what weather we'll get every day. We had two months of hurricanes last time they were angling for a pay rise.*"
> ― Arthur Weasley to Harry on the way to his trial for underage magic[source]
>
>

**Magical Maintenance** was a division of the Ministry of Magic. Members of this Department were the custodians of the Ministry. They were responsible for maintaining the upkeep of the Ministry, including deciding what weather to display through the Ministry's enchanted windows and repairing magic gone wrong within the premises of the Ministry, such as rain inside an office.

Magical Maintenance is presumably in charge of maintaining the lifts and ensuring that the Atrium fireplaces are supplied with Floo Powder, in addition to less magical forms of maintenance such as tidying up. The personnel working in the Magical Maintenance wore navy blue robes.

## Known members

* Orford Umbridge
* Reginald Cattermole
* Lift attendant
Madame Glossy's Silver Polish

**Madame Glossy's Silver Polish** was a magical cleaning solution, produced by Madame Glossy's Finest Cleaning Products Ltd.. It was available in three different container sizes.

It is likely that as a Squib, Hogwarts Caretaker Argus Filch relied on the product quite heavily, since a number of cans of it were kept stored in a broom closet in the school. Rita Skeeter rested her parchment on one of these cans before she interviewed Harry Potter in the broom closet in 1994.
Gringotts vault key

**keys** owned by anyone who had a bank account at Gringotts Wizarding Bank, enabling them to unlock and withdraw from their vaults. Lower security vaults, such as the one belonging to the Weasley family, require only a key to open. Higher security, such as the one belonging to the Lestrange family or the one belonging to the Potter family, requires not only the key, but also a goblin employee to lift the security measure around the door.

> "*Level Three, Department of Magical Accidents and Catastrophes, incorporating the Accidental Magic Reversal Squad, Obliviator Headquarters and Muggle-Worthy Excuse Committee.*"
> ― Voice of lift at the Ministry of Magic[source]
>
>

The **Muggle-Worthy Excuse Committee** is a division of the Department of Magical Accidents and Catastrophes. Members of this committee think up excuses that will explain magical happenings to Muggles. Unlike the Office of Misinformation, who becomes involved in only the very worst magical-Muggle collisions and liaises with the Muggle Prime Minister, this committee deals with the more minor incidents.
Noxious Potion

The **Noxious Potion** is a potion that releases green clouds of smoke when completed. Its exact usage and effects are unknown, but it is possible that it is used as a poison.

## Etymology

In Latin, "Noxious" means unpleasant and harmful, generally referring to odourous fumes, hence the green clouds that emit from it. Noxious is a descendant of another Latin word, nocere, meaning to hurt or injure. "Noxa" means hurtful or injurious. This means that the potion probably injures the drinker.
Knotgrass

> "*This is the most complicated potion I've ever seen. Lacewing flies, leeches, fluxweed, and knotgrass. Well, they're easy enough.*"
> ― Hermione Granger on the Polyjuice Potion ingredients[source]
>
>

**Knotgrass** was a plant with magical properties. It was used in Potion-making, and was an essential ingredient in the making of the Polyjuice Potion, as well as in the brewing of the alcoholic beverage

The *Daily Prophet* reported in its 29 November 1926 issue that an unusually dry season had lead to a shortage of knotgrass.

Knotgrass could be found growing in the Forbidden Forest.Harry Potter and Hermione Granger struggled through a patch of it on their way back from their first meeting with Grawp, just before they and Hagrid were approached by the centaurs.

## Behind the scenes

* Knotgrass may refer to several species of the *Polygonum* genus found in England and Europe. It is most likely *Polygonum aviculare,* which was believed to halt the growth of animals, and was mentioned as such in the works of William Shakespeare.
* The use of knotgrass in the Polyjuice Potion was chosen by J. K. Rowling to represent "being tied to another person".
* In the GBA version of Chamber of Secrets, this is instead received from a Venomous Tentacula.

**Pollux Black** (1901 – 1970) was a pure-blood wizard, the eldest child of Cygnus Black II and Violetta Bulstrode, the brother of Cassiopeia Black, Marius Black, and Dorea Black, the husband of Irma Crabbe, the father of Walburga Black, Alphard Black, and Cygnus Black III, the grandfather of Sirius Black, Regulus Black, Bellatrix Lestrange, Andromeda Tonks, and Narcissa Malfoy, the great-grandfather of Draco Malfoy and Nymphadora Tonks, and the great-great-grandfather of Teddy Lupin and Scorpius Malfoy.

## Etymology

Like many members of the Black family, the name Pollux comes from a star. It is the brightest star in the constellation Gemini. The name refers to Castor and Pollux, the twin sons of Zeus and Leda in Greek mythology. The name is traditionally thought to mean *"much wine"*, since astrologers associate Pollux with prosperity and celebration with wine. Pollux's sister Cassiopeia was named after a constellation.
Poltergeist

A **poltergeist** is an "indestructible spirit of chaos".They haunt one specific location at a time, generally those inhabited by a large number of adolescents, and either "[came] with the building", or chose to enter it at some point. They occasionally haunt the homes of Muggles. They are among the creatures classed as Non-Human Spiritous Apparitions.

Poltergeists generally have a physical form, one notable exception being Peeves, the poltergeist that haunts Hogwarts Castle. He is considered "the most notorious and troublesome poltergeist in British history".

## Nature

### Abilities

Poltergeists can fly and delight in vandalism, malicious mischief, and the general aggravation and embarrassment of living persons. They could unscrew chandeliers, write rude words on chalkboards, throw water balloons at people, throw walking sticks at people, stuff keyholes with chewing gum and other such acts, simply for their amusement.

### Behaviour

Poltergeists are notably unruly and have developed a misconception that there is no way to get rid of a poltergeist once it has moved into a location. More destructive poltergeists who have inhabited a location for a longer period of time are harder to expel, but it is not impossible to do. In more serious cases, some people (notably Albus Dumbledore and the Bloody Baron) could get the poltergeist to settle down for a while, though it would inevitably start acting up again. Dolores Umbridge claimed that the British Ministry of Magic could sign an order banning a poltergeist, and once threatened Peeves with this action. However, her statement may reflect her belief in the superiority of wizards in general and the Ministry of Magic in particular, rather than specific knowledge of the nature of poltergeists, and that her efforts would be wasted. Peeves is likely the only known exception to this course of action.

### Comparison to ghosts

Whilst similar, poltergeists differ from Ghosts in a number of ways. Firstly, Ghosts are incorporeal, whereas the poltergeist, despite not normally having a physical form, is solid enough to move objects with physical force. Poltergeists have never once been living humans either. The latter trait may indicate amortality, the condition of never having died and being unable to die, as one was never alive to start. Poltergeists with form have enough physicality that they can have gum fly up their noses, and they are vulnerable to some of the same hexes as humans, including Langlock. It's also possible that they can feel pain, but still not be physically injured.
Mary Cattermole

## Mary Elizabeth Cattermole

Template:Dialogue a-b

**Mary Elizabeth Cattermole** (fl. 1997) was a Muggle-born witch. She lives at 27 Chislehurst Gardens, Great Tolling, Evesham with her husband and children. She is described as small with dark hair that she wore in a neat bun.

## Biography

She was the daughter of a Muggle greengrocer and his wife. She married Ministry of Magic employee Reginald Cattermole, with whom she had two daughters, Maisie and Ellie, and one son, Alfred. In 1997, Mary was accused of stealing the wand of a pure-blood or half-blood witch or wizard, and was brought before a trial by the Muggle-Born Registration Commission. She was interrogated by Dolores Umbridge and Yaxley, and would have been convicted and sent to Azkaban if not for the help of Harry and Hermione (disguised as Albert Runcorn and Mafalda Hopkirk respectively). Harry, Hermione and Ron (disguised as her husband Reginald Cattermole) assisted her and a group of Muggle-borns who had been in for questioning escape the Ministry. Harry advised Mary and Reg to take their children and flee the country while Voldemort was still in power.

It is unknown if Mary and Reginald managed to escape successfully, or what happened to them after the war.

## Etymology

"Mary" is the English form of Maria, which was the Latin form of the New Testament Greek names Μαριαμ (*Mariam*) and Μαρια (*Maria*) (the spellings are interchangeable) which in turn come from the Hebrew name מִרְיָם (*Miryam*). The meaning is not known for certain, but there are several theories including "sea of bitterness", "rebelliousness", and "wished for child". It is also possible that the source of the name lies in ancient Egyptian, and was derived from *mry* "beloved" or *mr* "love".

## Etymology

Means "brave power", derived from the Germanic elements ric "power, rule" and hard "brave, hardy". The Normans introduced this name to Britain, and it has been very common there since that time. It was borne by three kings of England including Richard I the Lionheart, one of the leaders of the Third Crusade in the 12th century.

Regerminating Potion

The **Regermination Potion** is a potion produced by famous Herbologist Tilden Toots that forces a plant to germinate. Three drops of this potion (combined with six drops of Toots's Rejuicer) are sufficient to revive a dead Flitterbloom.
Roderick Plumpton

**Roderick Plumpton** (1889-1987) was an English wizard who was the Seeker for the Tutshill Tornados Quidditch team during the early 1900s. He invented the Plumpton Pass during a match against the Caerphilly Catapults in 1921, where he caught the Snitch after three and a half seconds.

Plumpton was also accomplished in the arts, having painted Witch and Wizard Couple, a painting of a medieval couple, currently hanging at Hogwarts Castle.

## Biography

Plumpton led the Tornados to five consecutive League Cups, and played Seeker for the English National Quidditch team twenty-two times. While critics allege his 'Plumpton Pass' was an accident, and the Snitch had merely flown up his sleeve, Plumpton insisted until his death that he meant to do it.

At some point before he died, he signed a souvenir programme, which later made its way into the hands of Sage Bragnam.

## Etymology

The name "Roderick" means "famous power" from the Germanic elements hrod "fame" and ric "power". This name was in use among the Visigoths; it was borne by their last king (also known as Rodrigo), who died fighting the Muslim invaders of Spain in the 8th century. It also had cognates in Old Norse and West Germanic, and it was introduced to England by Scandinavian settlers and the Normans, though it died out after the Middle Ages. It was revived in the English-speaking world by Sir Walter Scott's poem 'The Vision of Don Roderick' (1811).

Taken by surprise and in a desperate measure to seize Black, Minister Cornelius Fudge ordered hundreds of Witch Watcher Special Forces to the village. The Ministry's attempt to catch Black was unsuccessful, however, as he had already left Dufftown when the Witch Watchers arrived.

Office of Misinformation

> "*The Office of Misinformation will become involved in only the very worst magical-Muggle collisions. Some magical catastrophes or accidents are simply too glaringly obvious to be explained away by Muggles without the help of an outside authority. The Office of Misinformation will in such a case liaise directly with the Muggle prime minister to seek a plausible non-magical explanation for the event.*"
> ― Newton Scamander, [source]

The **Office of Misinformation** is part of the Ministry of Magic, answering to the Department for the Regulation and Control of Magical Creatures. The Office is only employed during the worst magical-Muggle collisions, when an incident is so obviously magical in nature that Muggle authorities have a hard time explaining it.

In such cases, the Office liaises directly with the Muggle Prime Minister to create a plausible, non-magical excuse for the incident. The Office of Misinformation has worked long and hard convincing Muggles that all photographic evidence of the Loch Ness Monster is fake, salvaging a situation that once looked to be extremely dangerous.

'*Iola'***Hitchens** (née **Black**) was a pure-blood witch and the sister of Sirius, Phineas Nigellus, and Elladora Black. She married a Muggle man named Bob Hitchens, and was struck off the Black Family tree and disowned as a result. Her dates are unknown, but she was born after Elladora (1850).

## Etymology

*Iola* is probably a female variant of the Ancient Greek name Iole, meaning "violet". In Greek mythology Iole was a beautiful young princess who was claimed by Heracles for a bride, but her father, King Eurytus of Oechalia, refused her hand in marriage, which seems to suit Iola Black's story of a morganatic marriage and subsequent disowning.
Poison ivy

> "*Take care when you handle this poisonous plant.*"
> ― Description[source]

**Poison ivy** is the common name of *Template:Wplink*, a poisonous plant known for the production of a fluid that causes skin irritation. Poison ivy can be used in potions, and grows wild in the woods near the Quidditch World Cup Campsite.

## Behind the scenes

* The presence of poison ivy in a British forest on Template:PM is odd, given that poison ivy is native to North America and is not known to have a substantial presence in any part of Europe.

Pukwudgie (House)

**Pukwudgie** is one of the four houses at Ilvermorny School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in North America. It was named so by No-Maj James Steward, after the Pukwudgie, a fiercely independent magical creature, based on stories he heard from his wife Isolt Sayre about William the Pukwudgie.

Pukwudgie House is sometimes considered to represent the heart of a witch or wizard. It is also said that Pukwudgie favours healers.

## History

In 1926, Pukwudgie received 378 House points, the second highest of the four houses, and won the Quidditch Cup and The Gobstone Goblet.

They are an intellectual race which value knowledge above all else. The **Yl'Khahan** are of approximately human shape (with bowed legs and long arms) and of varying size. **Yl'Khahan** are generally ugly and filthy, with prominent fangs and facial features tending toward the grotesque (generally a mixture of the ape-like and pig-like).

### Urcan Bloodborn

They are a warrior sect, wich live for the war, the only thing they want is an honorable battle. For the **Urcan Bloodborn**, every war is a gift, every battle is a celebration, the dance music is the battle drums, the dance partner is a brutal, bloodthirsty enemy and there is nothing better than the raw meat of the murdered opponents after a battle.

Hit Wizard

> "*We are looking for talented young witches and wizards with a liking for danger.*"
> ― A recruitment advertisement[source]
>
>

A **Hit Wizard** or **Hit Witch** is a member of the Magical Law Enforcement Squad that are trained to deal with highly dangerous combat situations, such as high-risk arrests, riot controls and presumably, hostage situations. As such they are the Wizarding Britain's equivalent of specialist firearms officers.

## History

A team of Hit Wizards arrested Sirius Black in 1981 when he was thought to have murdered Peter Pettigrew and twelve Muggles with a single curse.

[Arnold Peasegood]] suffered a minor attack of boils while arresting goblins during the riot in Chipping Clodbury in 1992/1993.

Hit wizards were also needed to escort the Quidditch team members to safety during the riots that occurred at the Puddlemere United v Holyhead Harpies grudge match.

Alastor Gumboil handles applications for Hit Witches and Hit Wizards from room 919 at the Ministry.

## The job

The Department of Magical Law Enforcement maintains squads of trained Hit Wizards and Witches whose job it is to move out at a moment's notice in dire and dangerous situations, be it to disperse the crowd during riots or apprehend dangerous wizarding criminals once they have been located.

While Hit Wizards are trained to fight Dark Wizards, just like the Aurors, the latter appear to differ in that unlike Hit Wizards, they are more of an elite force whose abilities goes far beyond simply arresting suspects such as investigation, concealment and disguise, stealth and tracking, poisons and antidotes, etc., whereas Hit Wizards appeared to be primarily a fighting force, and not trained to investigate crime.

###  Job requirements:

* 17 years of age or older
* Five or more O.W.L.s including Defence Against the Dark Arts
* Not of nervous disposition

### Benefits include:

* Starting salary of 700 Galleons per month
* Ministry of Magic, broomstick
* Regular bed at Saint Mungo's

## Known Hit Wizards

* Alastor Gumboil
* Arnold Peasegood
Scintillation Solution

The **Scintillation Solution** is a potion of unknown effect.

Z. Nettles, a witch who took the Kwikspell course, wrote a testimonial for the company which stated that taking their course had improved her poor potion-making skills to such an extent that all her friends now desperately wanted to know how she made her Scintillation Solution.

## Behind the scenes

* The meaning of the word *scintillating* ("brilliant, clever, witty"), combined with the context in which the potion is mentioned, suggest that it may be a brain tonic similar to Baruffio's Brain Elixir or Wit-Sharpening Potion.
