It's now time for my subject. THIS IS AN HP ROUND. As in all the pics you are getting are somehow related to the wizarding world!

In a few minutes, each of you will get a PM with some pics (5 to be exact). They will be related to Harry Potter world and will be "transfigured" (in Muggle language, transformed, edited, and cropped) and even people in the same house will not get the exact same questions. This is an individual round. You have to tell me what the pic originally was. The pic can be a verb, noun, proper noun, or even a House.

As usual, the points you earn for the questions will also be added to your house points, however, if you submit in the first 24 hours you will get 40 individual bonus points. If you submit in the next 12 hours after that (hours 24 to 36) then you will get 20 individual bonus points. Those who submit in the last 12 hours will get no bonus points.

Each correct question will earn you 100 points. Each wrong answer will lose 20 points. And, because this is a subject, there are no hints.

The deadline for this round is 19th April 11:59 PM IST. For the 40 bonus points, I will count any entries received until 19th April 12:01 AM IST. For the 20 bonus points, I will count any entries received until 19th April 12:01 PM IST.
