Ted joined Fred and George in pelting Professor Quirrell with enchanted snowballs, earning House-point deductions and two weeks of detention from Professor McGonagall. During his first detention, he impressed her with a polished confession and rapidly completed much of the Transfiguration reading she assigned.

• Ted left Hermione and joined Fred and George, helping them use enchanted snowballs to chase Professor Quirrell into a snowdrift.

On Valentine's Day, Ted completed a mission by spreading stories that discouraged romance, then Professor Quirrell began drawing him into forbidden research on magical creature bloodlines and Cerberus.

He spent March developing and learning spells, ending with both Charms and Transfiguration at level 3.

During Easter break, Ted and his friends defended Guf Oasis from a group of bullying Slytherins, then used a magical Easter Egg to turn the Great Hall’s sour mood into a rabbit-catching candy scramble. The students celebrated the surprise, while the Slytherins remained unhappy.

• Neville, Jerry, Ron, Harriett, and Ted’s group attacked the Slytherins who were harassing Guf Oasis, and Ted’s Invisibility Servant hid the unconscious bullies in a bathroom.

• At lunch, Ted summoned a giant Easter egg in the Great Hall and touched it, releasing rabbits that scattered among the students.
• Ted, Neville, Hermione, and the other students caught rabbits that transformed into candy, leaving the Great Hall cheerful and the Slytherins displeased.

Ted learned about the unusually curious Slytherin Andre Losa and spent Easter break searching Hogwarts with his friends while they struggled through heavy homework. In April, Ted acquired a strange spirit-summoning crafting method and raised his Mind Mage level, ending with stronger Mind Power and Mind Resistance.

• Ted asked Harriett about the Slytherin first-year with a purple family crest, and she identified him as Andre Losa of a family that had never joined the Death Eaters.

Harriett and her friends visited Hagrid, discovered he was hatching a smuggled dragon egg, and learned that his three-headed dog guarded Dumbledore and Nicolas Flamel’s secret. Ted suspected the dragon egg had been sent to distract Hagrid and help Quirrell target unicorns, but after vowing to avoid the Forbidden Forest, he received a quest to explore it.

• Harriett recognized Hagrid’s fireplace egg as a Norwegian Ridgeback, and Hagrid said he had won it from a smuggler in a card game.
• Hagrid admitted he had bought Fluffy, the three-headed dog, from a Greek smuggler and revealed that music could put it to sleep.
• Harriett and Hermione pressed Hagrid until he revealed that Fluffy guarded a secret belonging to Dumbledore and Nicolas Flamel.
• Ted explained that Flamel had created the Philosopher’s Stone, and the group left discussing the stone while Hagrid regretted revealing the secret.
• Ted suspected the dragon egg was meant to keep Hagrid occupied while Quirrell hunted unicorns, then resolved to avoid the Forbidden Forest until the system gave him an exploration quest.

Ted kept the students occupied with dueling practice, gained a Mud Golem card, and exchanged for knowledge about the Shinobi Prosthetic. After receiving a note from Hagrid that an egg was about to hatch, Ted hurried to see it.

• Anzu delivered Hagrid's note telling Ted that the egg was about to hatch and asking him to come quickly.

Ted and his friends watched Hagrid’s Norwegian Ridgeback hatch, while Malfoy’s attempt to spy on them ended with Anzu chasing him off. Malfoy’s boastful dragon story led Ted and Jerry to mock him, and Professor McGonagall punished him for insulting them.

• Hagrid told Ted and his friends that Norbert’s egg was about to hatch, and they hurried to his hut.
• Norbert hatched from the egg, breathed fire, and Hagrid doted on him; Ted took some of the eggshell.
• Anzu drove Malfoy and his two companions away when they tried to spy on the hatching.
• Malfoy bragged to his classmates that he had witnessed the dragon hatch, but no one believed him, so he began following Ted’s group for proof.
• Ted and Jerry mocked Malfoy’s stories at dinner, and Professor McGonagall took twenty points from Slytherin and gave him two weeks’ detention for using an insult.

Ted and the others arranged for Charlie to take Norbert away after the dragon grew too wild for Hagrid to manage. Malfoy intercepted them after the handoff, only to learn that Norbert was already gone when Professor McGonagall caught them out after curfew.

• Norbert bit Ron, whose poisoned finger swelled badly, and Ted and the others agreed that Hagrid could no longer keep raising the dragon.
• Ron suggested asking his brother Charlie, and Charlie arranged to fly to the school with colleagues and take Norbert away.

• Harriett, Ron, Jerry, and Neville decided to follow Ted while keeping their distance.

Ted joined Hagrid’s fight with a group of Dark wizards in the Forbidden Forest, and Hagrid identified them as poachers pursuing injured unicorns. Harriett, Neville, Ron, and Jerry later found a wounded unicorn and caught a cloaked figure drinking its blood, leaving Harriett to attack as they were discovered.
