A/N: Hey guys, I'm back again after a pretty long break! Anyway, this isn't really so much of a story, as much as it is an analysis with help! Please read the following, it will explain the idea of this piece of writing . By the way, I edit my own stories, so sorry for any mistakes.
So the wands in Harry Potter have always interested me, and after getting my Pottermore a few months back they became even more interesting. So, with help through reviews and the like from you guys, I've decided to do analyses of people's wands on Pottermore!
I'm not great at all of this, but I do know a fair bit about the wands in HP and what they say about their owners. So if you would like, leave a review saying your house, wand wood, core, length and flexibility and with the help of all the fan fiction users out there, we can do an in depth analysis of people's wands!
I guess to start, I could say my wand and info about it…
House: Gryffindor
Wand Wood: Laurel
Core: Phoenix Feather
Length: 10 and three-quarter inches
Flexibility: Pliant
First of all, I don't think I've ever seen this wand combination anywhere yet (:D). It's a very interesting combination, since the wand wood not that common, and phoenix feather is the rarest type of core. From Pottermore: It is said that a laurel wand cannot perform a dishonourable act, although in the quest for glory (a not uncommon goal for those best suited to these wands), I have known laurel wands perform powerful and sometimes lethal magic. Laurel wands are sometimes called fickle, but this is unfair. The laurel wand seems unable to tolerate laziness in a possessor, and it is in such conditions that it is most easily and willingly won away. Otherwise, it will cleave happily to its first match forever, and indeed has the unusual and engaging attribute of issuing a spontaneous lightning strike if another witch or wizard attempts to steal it. This description kind of tells how the Laurel wand wood has its allegiance hard won, and it also tells how the owner of a Laurel wand must be active, almost restless, to keep possession of the wand. This is only amplified by the fact that this wand has a Phoenix Feather core, which also has its allegiance hard won. The Laurel wood also values an energetic owner, as 'it is unable to tolerate laziness in the possessor.'
More on the Phoenix Feather, from Pottermore: "This is the rarest core type. Phoenix feathers are capable of the greatest range of magic, though they may take longer than either unicorn or dragon cores to reveal this. They show the most initiative, sometimes acting of their own accord, a quality that many witches and wizards dislike. Phoenix feather wands are always the pickiest when it comes to potential owners, for the creature from which they are taken is one of the most independent and detached in the world. These wands are the hardest to tame and to personalize, and their allegiance is usually hard won." This kind of reinforces what I mentioned before, about having the allegiance of this wand hard won. However, I believe if I was able to master the wand (if I actually had it ), that it would stay my wand forever and never change master even if it was forcefully taken away from me. Hey, it might even produce 'a spontaneous lightning strike' if I really do have its allegiance. If I couldn't win its allegiance however, for some odd reason, I believe it would be easily, almost willingly, won from me.
Finally, the length and the flexibility of the wand come into play. My wand, being pliant, or rather flexible and bendy, is adaptable to changes in lifestyle and in its master's life. However the wand is not very adaptable to changes in its master, as shown by the wood and core if it is happy with its master. For the length of the wand however, I personally think is has the least to do with the person. Any wand above 14 inches or below 8 inches shows that the person has a major character flaw, and seeing as my wand is right in between, I guess I'm pretty normal.
So yea, that's the analysis of my wand for you! If you would like me and other fanfic users to analyze your wand and what it means, just leave a review with the info, and I'll be happy to do it! If you have any suggestions or helpful comments either, you can PM me or just review; either works .
A/N: So yea, that's it for now, as I only have my own wand to analyze now. I will update as I get new requests for wands. If you would like to help me on this story with analyzing other people's wands and their personalities based on their wands, just PM me, I'll be happy to let you! Two heads, or more, are always better than one! So yea, that's all for now. Until later! -Jake
