[color=forestgreen][b]Interacting with:[/b][/color] Sylvanna Teledar [@Etranger]
[hr]
The next student to come forward in order to take the test was a tall Sun Elf woman who announced herself as Sylvanna Teledar in a grandiose fashion after pirouetting to the square.  [color=forestgreen][i]”Is she trying to outperform Marius’s demonstration?”[/i][/color] Den pondered idly as he noted which Schools she had affinities for.  If this was going to be the start of a strange rivalry between the two of them to see which of them could show off their skills in the most extraordinary and over the top fashion, the following year was going to be a pretty interesting one.  Den just hoped that none of the resulting antics pushed their teachers too far.  They were pretty hard to replace after all.

[color=forestgreen][b]”Okay, Ms. Teledar, you may proceed with your demonstration,”[/b][/color] Den said with a permissive gesture of his hand once he and the other two proctors had finished scribbling down the notes on their initial impressions.  Upon receiving permission to begin with her demonstration, Sylvanna launched herself into the air and pulled off a spin somewhere near the apex of her jump.  [color=forestgreen][i]”It seems like we have a couple of athletes in our group this year,”[/i][/color] Den remarked to himself with a small smile as Sylvanna landed dramatically.  

When she pointed behind to the other side of the field behind them and declared that her talents were on display, Den and the other proctors turned somewhat excitedly to see what she had done.  Of course, their excitement quickly gave way to confusion as they failed to find even the barest hint of magic at the specified location.  Had she done something more subtle?  Was the change small enough that they would need to get closer to actually see it?  Truth be told, that level of precision would be quite commendable in a new student.  

Unfortunately, before anyone could ask any such clarifying questions of Sylvanna, the clothes belonging to the female proctor standing next to Den fell apart.  With a small shriek, the blushing woman quickly tried to cover herself as much as possible, though her efforts were ultimately in vain.  [color=crimson][b]”Y-You [i]horrible[/i] little…”[/b][/color] the moon elf woman stammered indignantly before she began stomping away from the group.  [color=crimson][b]”I’ll see that you’re expelled for this!  Do you hear me?”[/b][/color]  Judging from the laughing fit Sylvanna seemed to be having over the whole thing, however, it seemed obvious that she had in fact not heard the moon elf woman’s threat.

[color=forestgreen][b]”That was a little uncalled for, don’t you think?”[/b][/color] Den asked with a sigh as he walked over to the laughing Sun Elf after his colleague had stormed off, using her magic to turn herself invisible once the shock of the whole situation had worn off a bit.  While it was true that Sylvanna was a new student and had been acting within the context of the diagnostic test, it was also true that she could have chosen to demonstrate her prowess with Alteration magic without embarrassing one of her proctors.  

[color=forestgreen][b]”We’ll have to discuss your punishment later,”[/b][/color] Den continued after a moment.  Expulsion was almost certainly too severe a punishment for what was essentially a juvenile prank, but scrubbing pots in the kitchens or mopping floors weren’t.  Hopefully a week or two of extra chores would help Sylvanna realize that she shouldn’t be pulling pranks on her teachers or other more advanced students of the Guild.  Of course, she shouldn’t pull pranks on anyone, but her laughing fit made Den think that it would take a little more than some manual labor to convince her to give up pranking people.

While Sylvanna recovered from her laughing fit, Den recorded his impressions of her abilities as displayed during her demonstration.  From the fact that she hadn’t bothered to utilize Enchantment magic, it was clear that she hadn’t really taken the opportunity to show off her abilities as seriously as she should have, so it was a little harder than normal to accurately judge her abilities.  She had shown a level of precision when it came to using her Alteration magic to weaken the proctor’s clothes at the seams from a distance, however, which was a point worth noting regarding her ability with that School.

As Den and the other remaining proctor finished their notes on Sylvanna’s performance, they were joined by another teacher who would fill in for the moon elf proctor that Sylvanna had humiliated.  Once he had arrived and Sylvanna had returned to the others, Den called out and gestured for the next student to come forward.
