✨DID YOU KNOW!?✨
Wherever there is magic, there will always be accidents. Sometimes a charm backfires, and you turn yourself into a hideous hag, or the aim of your wand is just off, and you end up hitting the wrong person with a elasticated ear lobe jinx, or even, you’re mixing potions, and put in too many drops of troll snot and BOOM 💥…no eyebrows and an extra nose! 👃🏼
After a while, the non-magical folk started to take notice of these oddities, and became suspicious causing the magical community to be at risk of being revealed, after all, when your pet rabbit starts talking, or a woman with three arms and a two foot neck walks down the street, it’s hard to not double take.
So something had to be done, and it was down to one man:
Johann Musson - originally known as an expert carer of magical creatures, and the first person in the world to successfully tame a Stone Troll.
He believed his personal collection of potions and treatments could easily be transferred from curing creatures to curing humans. Although initial tests proved otherwise, with various unexpected symptoms, it wasn’t long before he managed to convert the treatments for human consumption.
Word quickly spread of his success, especially after he released his best selling books, ‘Musson’s Magical Malady’s’ and ‘Creature Features and how to Rid them’, the magical population soon pushed the magical authorities to allow Musson to practice his treatments in a more permanent location, rather than from the back of a travelling cart, which he had been taking from town to town at the time.
The Council of Magic found a lump of money to help fund the UK’s first magical hospital, and in 1492, Musson Incantation Infirmary opened it’s doors, curing it’s first patient from an Ogre Bite within the first 7 minutes of it opening.
The people working at the hospital became known as Curers, and today the hospital has over twenty different departments, and over five hundred curers and staff members.
