The wand shop itself didn't appear that impressive, at least until she looked closer at the sign.

'Ollivanders: Makers of Fine Wands since 382BC.'

For such a business to last so long and within one family at that, they must either be incredibly proficient in making wands and beat out the competition or they have a monopoly on wand craft, either way this promised to be an intriguing trip.

As they entered the ancient shop she noticed that despite looking similar to the wards present on the other shops these ones were completely different and much more powerful; she didn't notice upon first glance as they are similar in colour to the others on the street. Whilst she doesn't know what any of the wards she was mildly suspicious of these being so different.

The inside was no less strange, colours of every variety and tone were present, some that she couldn't even describe with them appearing too exotic. Concentrating on the visible spectrum of light she noted that the building was in such a chaotic mess that it would be enough to give Weiss an aneurism with her OCD, Weiss...

She snapped out of her melancholy haze when she felt the hairs of her neck stand straight and her new instincts scream at her to focus. The wards of the building appeared to of had focused on them and she felt the slightest trace of a mental intrusion from them, luckily blocked by her mental resistance and occulmancy skill.

Detecting a presence twisted around to see an old man who began to speak to them, whilst he was saying something about her parents she distracted looking at his soul. It was massive easily eclipsing hers by an order of magnitude and he radiated purity magic like her eyes. Fascinated and slightly unnerved she used 'observe' upon him.

BIO: Ollivander is a wandmaker. Unable to process information. Is slightly amused by your attempts to observe him. Believes it to be some type of spell. *Warning Target is Unknown*

Ruby felt the blood drain from her face, she turned back into the conversation whilst trying not to flee as her instincts screamed at her, whatever Ollivander was it is not human. Petrified but resolving herself to face this monster of power she listened as he gave Hermione a multitude of wands until one seemed to accept her, under her eyes, she could see a tendril of magic connect Hermione to her new wand.

"Now miss Ro-Potter which is your wand arm?"

Petrified about him knowing about her past but concluding that if he was going to do something with that knowledge there was little she could do to stop him she told him it was her left, he seeming was satisfied to just do his job. He responded with a hum whilst measuring. She tried to figure out just who he was and how he knew her, she was preoccupied with this mystery going through the wands he handed her after he seemed satisfied with his measurement until she heard him speak.

"Curious, I was most sure that this wand would be the one for you, given its history" He asked with an almost puzzled face.

"What is special about this wand in particular," She asked with slight trepidation.

"This is the brother wand to the wand that gave you that scar... But I suppose things change so let's try something different" He said switching from a solemn tone to an almost jubilant tone flippantly.

He then beckoned her to the workshop near the end of the front room whilst Hermione and the Professor agreed to wait for her. In this back room lay tables filled with woods and materials of all types. Coming to a stop as he stood next to a workbench she waited for him to speak.

"Miss potter some people's magic is rather unstable and resonates oddly causing problems when trying to bond with most wands so I have a different method for these tricky customers such as yourself. Using a base of silver as a substitute for the wood as it's purity properties helps stabilise magic and the core is made of crystalised blood of the user to be used as a focus and used to tune the wand to your magics frequency so to speak."

Curious as to why this isn't standard practice she made to speak but he seems to have preempted her question.

"As to why this isn't done for everyone is because of the ministry's rules on blood magic and that the wand cannot have a trace put on it as that itself would count as blood magic due to the core. This is only allowed when a person has rather odd resonating magic and cannot use a normal wand, this is the only exception to the blood magic rule."

Nodding at this he showed me the core he was using was 13 inches in length and had three cylindrical lines going around the sides, presumably where her core would go. After asking for her had he used a small knife to slit her palm, open and held it over the casing for a few moments until he removed the knife from the wound and it healed. She had to suppress her aura to allow him to cut her hand but once it was done he said to push as much magic as she could into the wand.

After around half a minute she had drained all her magic and her mand appeared to be done. It was quite beautiful if she said so herself, 13 inches, shining silver with those pulsating lines of red coiling around it. A rather apt representation of herself she thought.

After that, she was lead back to the entrance where she paid 60G/£300 for the wand and she paid the 30G/£150 for Hermione's wand as well. Just as she had left the boundary to the building Mr Ollivanders voice sounded from inside.

"And do be careful Miss Rose, darker things lurk in one's own soul hmm?"

Shuddering slightly at that ominous comment Ruby left the building and joined Hermione and McGonagall as they left Diagon alley behind.

*New Stat system*

Stats no longer have levels they are 0-100% mastered and when it reaches it evolves into the next tier.

This is to help simplify the skills and allow me to have more spells without having to calculate 50 or so spells exp by the end of a chapter. Also help to show how powerful something is better, for example:

'Eyes of Sight' - Higher - 25%

-Souls(Visible)

-Magic(visible but not detailed)

-Wards(Visible but not detailed)

-Can see in lack of light

-Cannot be blinded

Novice - Adept - Attuned - Upper - Higher - Greater - Mastered

(Because I like the number 7 and having 13 of them is taking the piss so 7 it is)

So this is the new system for skills, I'll compile the skills in a future chapter.

Well, that idea with Ollivander came out of nowhere but I've got some interesting ideas about where to go with it. I should be posting another chapter tomorrow, the day after at the latest. Thank you for reading hope you enjoy the more dialogue and description based writing rather than me just spamming the stats.

Now onto the Reviews:

SpellFlame:

1) I'm going to go over the skills system in a future chapter, for now skills will not be shown until I have time to change it to the new system, sorry about that.

Tymaxion:

1) Thank you.

2)Thank you for this criticism, I've PM'd you about this but this is so everyone knows that I'm only going to do the character sheet every few chapters.

Lowrex:

1)Thank you.

2) Dear God that is such a good idea, thank you.

3) Yang will be fused with Tonks, not as if this is following Canon so tonks is 3rd year lets say.

4)Thank you I greatly appreciate these ideas.

Merendinoemilano:

1) Thank you.

2) Schedules? I'm going to guess you mean the stats? If so then I'm going to only post the stats every few chapters or so.

3) If it wasn't the stats you were talking about please just PM me about what it is. I'm a little confused by what you mean with 'Schedules'. Sorry.

Hope you enjoyed reading.
