Professor Eupraxia Mole was Headmistress of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in the 1870s.[2]
Biography[]
Early life[]
Eupraxia Mole was born into a family of unknown wizarding descent sometime before 1859.
Career[]
At some point in or before to the 1870s, Eupraxia became the Headmistress of Hogwarts.
In 1876, caretaker Rancorous Carpe devised an "elaborate trap" in an effort to remove Peeves, the resident Poltergeist, from the Castle, which failed. The Castle had to be evacuated for three days as Peeves amused himself by firing weapons randomly and threatening the students with death.[2]
Professor Mole agreed to sign a contract with Peeves, so that he relinquished the weapons in exchange for additional privileges: a once-weekly swim in the boys' toilets on the ground floor, first refusal on stale bread from the kitchen for throwing purposes, as well as a new custom-made hat by Madame Bonhabille.[2]
At some point during her career as Headmistress, it was also said that she had bewitched the Daedalian Keys in order to protect some cabinets somewhere at the school to prevent the contents from falling into the wrong hands.[3]
