Gilbert Beilschmidt;
Wand Wood; Cypress
Cypress wands are associated with nobility. The great medieval wandmaker, Geraint Ollivander, wrote that he was always honoured to match a cypress wand, for he knew he was meeting a witch or wizard who would die a heroic death. Fortunately, in these less blood-thirsty times, the possessors of cypress wands are rarely called upon to lay down their lives, though doubtless many of them would do so if required. Wands of cypress find their soul mates among the brave, the bold and the self-sacrificing: those who are unafraid to confront the shadows in their own and others' natures.
Wand Core; Phoenix
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 personalise, and their allegiance is usually hard won.
Length: 12 inches
Flexibility: Hard
Muse: Gilbert's wand! Fits him really well, though I had a hard time with the core type. I thought about Unicorn Hair but it didn't seem right. Gilbert seems like a powerful guy, as you will find out later he's pretty brave and out of the three of them, Gilly, himself and Ludwig well...Gilbert would have been the only Gryffindor. Hands down which is funny because Gillian is his genderbend and obviously a Slytherin.
Wand information found on Pottermore (thank goodness for Pottermore!)
