LETTERBOX : Gideon Blackwood - Printable Version

PROFESSOR GIDEON BLACKWOOD

The entrance to the office of Professor Blackwood was unmistakable for any student of Slytherin House or Applied Magic navigating the dungeons.

During office hours, the heavy wooden door remained open unless the Deputy Headmaster was engaged in a private meeting. Outside of those times, students were required to deliver their letters to the door's sole attendant: a striking metal serpent head, fangs bared, affixed directly to the wood.
Gideon had named the imposing fixture Kaliya, after the furious mythological serpent from Hindu legend. It was Kaliya's hated task to receive all written correspondence from. Students would deposit letters into the serpent's open mouth, which would then be magically sorted on Professor Blackwood's desk.

As students walked the dungeon corridor, typically hugging the wall opposite the office, Kaliya would often let out a sharp, audible hiss at any who dared meet its angry gaze. Considering it was Kaliya’s job to interact with the students, they weren’t very good at it.[/gfont]
