Welcome to Department 4 of the Ministry of Magic

Chapter 1
This is a slightly lesser known fact however I believe I mentioned it in one of my previous books.

Did you know that Charlie Weasley once worked for the Department for the Regulation and Control of Magical Creatures? (yes, shout out to you Fred). Well he did. He worked there just after the Battle of Hogwarts in conjunction with his brother Bill. Other people to have worked there are Hermione Granger, Newt Scamander and Amos Diggory.

It is actually quite a complicated section of the Ministry because it comprises several divisions, Including, but not limited to Being, Beasts, Spirits, Goblins, Centaurs and Pests. Each section deals in advice, liaison and misinformation. Some people find that being sat in an office is a little too mundane for their liking however many enjoy it.

Due to clause 73 of the wizarding secrets act, when a muggle sees a magical creature the department deals with memory charms to make them forget having ever seen it. It is also the department you must go to if you want to get a licence for any animal such as a crup, firecrab, fwooper or kneazle.

Hopefully you are aware that every magical creature is issued a classification by the Ministry of Magic. These rate as the following:
X: Boring
XX: Harmless / May be domesticated
XXX: Competent wizards should cope
XXXX: Dangerous / requires specialist knowledge
XXXXX: Known wizard killer
