Strange runic carvings wend their way around the knobbled wood that pulse and glow in time to the frenetic dancing of said thunderbolt as it runs along the golden wires. Often mistaken for runes of power, their shifting nature is actually how rhe elemental communicates with its wielder.

Besides, he'll be back. Angels don't die easily and Thorns seem to be having an easier time getting new bodies than regular ones.

I wonder if Harry Potter wands are meant to scale with what's comfortable in the user's hand, or if you're mean to keep the same one forever and grow into it.

Can Potter fandom can finally disappear into oblivion, just like their beloved works did a fucking decade ago?
You are not gonna became 2nd Tolkien fandom, no matter how hard you are going to try. At this point. it's simply obnoxious how bunch of early 20-somethings can't get over their favourite childhood series is done and finished. In the meantime, three different franchises, aimed at the same age group, were created and completely forgotten the moment last film adaptation stopped playing in the cinemas.
Why Potter fandom can't do the same and just stop being like furries, always showing everyone how big fans they are, even if nobody asked.
>>
>>49982992
>just like their beloved works did a fucking decade ago
Dude Rowling just finished the money, now she's pushing Potter stuff again. As utterly shit as the play was, it still got people interested again. There's even a new movie coming out.
Also what franchises are you talking about? I can't think of anything coming anywhere near close Potter level popularity save maybe ASOIAF, which isn't the same demo anyway.

Twilight, which absolutely disappeared the moment movies stopped?
Hunger Games, exactly the same fate?
And they were pushing really hard Percy Jackson, but that simply didn't work out.

The only difference between those above and Potter is the fact Potter run for a decade, while those didn't manage to stay in the spotlight for more than 5 years.

I'm honestly kinda intrigued by the movie series based on the idea it might do some actual world building and I'm an eternal sucker for fleshing out a world.
>>
>>49983503
No, the difference is that Twilight and the Hunger Games (I never heard about the third one) were the merest flavor of the moment shit flicks that absolutely bombed critically, whereas Harry Potter has been considered an instant classic since Philosopher's Stone (the book, not even the movie). Mind you, it got worse afterwards, but HP1 still is the single most appreciated children's fiction in fucking decades.
You're not comparing similar success levels, not even close. Might as well mention Artemis Fowl and Eragon while you're at it, at least they're actually closer to HP's demo.
>>
>>49983657
>I'm an eternal sucker for fleshing out a world.
So am I, but Rowling is ass at world building beyond the school level, and if the play is anything to go by, her support staff is literally worse than the average fanfiction.net writer, so my expectations are non-existent.
>>
>>49983503
Out of those three, only Percy Jackson comes even close to Potter. Hunger Games is, at least in my opinion, on the same level as Maze Runner and that one other post-apocalyptic tween movie, the name of which I can't remember for the life of me.
Twilight though, is on a whole nother level.

I had a vivid dream where I was a mage specializing in the use of magic without any foci. Only empty hands to guide my sorcerous potential, like specializing in karate while everyone around you is training in weapons. One night while trying to create a staircase out of ice, I'm waving my arms and curling my fingers, but I'm only getting a chill mist that sublimates for a moment into ice before evaporating again. Frustrated, I head over to a nearby "mage church" or something, and borrow-without-asking an old wand I know is there. I get back to work and the ice stairs are like... spraying out of the thing, and I think "This is EASY! By golly I'll keep on training without one if it makes me this good when I actually DO use a wand, but for cases where I just need quick results for research... I have GOT to get me one of these!"

So, I continue my education struggling along and stubbornly declining suggestions to get a wand commissioned, while never letting on how much more I'm learning to focus myself and build up my magical potential compared to wimpy wand-users. Eventually however in my final year, it appears that I won't make a passing grade if I don't actually get a wand for my final tests. By now I've learned to work non-verbal and subtle magics (like making someone not pay any attention to the words I'm saying while we talk, allowing their mind to fill in the blanks as if dreaming), but I can't compete with the overt stuff like levitation and making plants spring from the ground. So, against all expectation (and against the advice of my profs), I make my final project about wand theory and craft.

"How can you expect to push the boundaries of wand theory when you have so little experience using one?" people would ask me. In the dream however, it seemed like there were some core principles that summed up all theory of using magical symbols, and how mastering the inner focus was even more important than mastering one's use of an outward-facing focus.

I also noted a few practical limitations of wands: you can get disarmed; a wand can be damaged (whereas you have a second hand); it can be stolen; it can be made inert through backlash; they reveal you as a mage if found on you, and you might not want that. These are all big Problems for a practical mage.

So I set to making my wand. A hefty six inch chunk of smoothly polished mahogany, slightly conical. Two inches at the base, tapering to a one inch diameter stub. There is a thumb groove, or slot, so if someone telekinetically tries to whip it out of your hands, it gets caught on your thumb and you can grip down reflexively to keep it in grasp. You can also add a chain to attach it to your wrist from the base. It doesn't matter it's not long and thin - after years of practice with empty hands, even a thick stumpy wand like this is a vastly more precise focus.

I walk into finals with the thing and I get scoffs and disapproving leers from students and teachers alike. I then silently out-perform my whole class, barely gesturing with my crude-seeming focus. Convinced I'm cheating somehow, one of my professors challenges me to a duel right after explanation of why we need to revolutionize wandcraft, and reduce the common mage's over-reliance on material foci during training. With apparent effort, my prof channels his power to lift every page of my thesis from my desk and individually tear them in thirds, proving how precise his magic is. After they flutter to the ground, I follow by levitating all the fragments and reassembling them perfectly in order, with no seams, and then turn those pages into emblazoned gold. "For perpetuity," I conclude, and then wake up with a pleasant lingering feeling of pride.

10/10 would dream again

Pic related was the first one
The twisted growth from getting choked by a vine just fit so perfectly in the hand that it gave me the idea to turn it into a wand.

Its a lot chunkier than it seems and is actually probably closer to a baton than a wand. The thick brutal feel of it made me think more shamanistic or nordic so I wood burned the runes onto the shaft. They're real elder futhark runes, but it doesn't really say anything.
Other than a bit of sanding thats about all I did to this one, didn't want to detract from the natural beauty of it.

The wand tests are actually relatively good as personality tests go, because they don't make too specific assumptions, are specific enough that the test doesn't become meaningless, use personality traits that normally gather together and use the sum of four different factors to determine the whole.
As proof of concept, one could probably understand about 65% of my personality and approach to life from my wand and my house (Slytherin).

Slytherin my ass.

>>49986321
There's a big difference between book Slytherins and Pottermore Slytherins.
The books' characterization is defined by basically being a bully, a liar of convenience and an underhanded opportunist who'll further their own power at any cost, which makes the dragon heartstring pretty much the only choice for them.
The Pottermore portrayal generally places more value on the careful, practical, opportunistic and sometimes morally flexible approach to betterment instead of having power be every Slytherin's ultimate goal, which means that like any other house, no specific kind of wand wood or core on their own would "disqualify" someone.
It's not like unicorn-hair wands have many specific characteristics aside from loyalty and stubbornness - the former is not incompatible with Slytherins (Draco Malfoy would rather stay with his family and acquaintances, even if he was cold towards them, than betray them for Voldemort), and the latter is almost vital in some measure.
If you'd ever want to do anything even resembling Harry Potter OCs, God bless your soul, all you need for a good character seed is an interesting wand/core/house combination.
A Ravenclaw with a blackthorn/phoenix feather wand isn't an impossibility, because wood and core purviews aren't that wide - it's a thought experiment.

That just gave me an idea for a character, but making Harry Potter OCs is death for the roleplayer (because Harry Potter roleplay is all Tumblr forum roleplay filled with drama).
An All-American wizard who roams the deserts of the West with his car full of wands of different woods and types, who considers himself persecuted by an ancient wizard conspiracy because getting caught using Avada Kedavra means either being killed or being imprisoned for life in a hellhole filled with soul-sucking monsters that cause indescribable existential despair. The way he sees it, a wand's a gun made out of magical wood, and fuck it if he isn't allowed to ask for a wand made out of a small tree that he can mount on the back of his van.

14" hawthorn, unicorn hair
>The wandmaker Gregorovitch wrote that hawthorn ‘makes a strange, contradictory wand, as full of paradoxes as the tree that gave it birth, whose leaves and blossoms heal, and yet whose cut branches smell of death.’ While I disagree with many of Gregorovitch’s conclusions, we concur about hawthorn wands, which are complex and intriguing in their natures, just like the owners who best suit them. Hawthorn wands may be particularly suited to healing magic, but they are also adept at curses, and I have generally observed that the hawthorn wand seems most at home with a conflicted nature, or with a witch or wizard passing through a period of turmoil. Hawthorn is not easy to master, however, and I would only ever consider placing a hawthorn wand in the hands of a witch or wizard of proven talent, or the consequences might be dangerous. Hawthorn wands have a notable peculiarity: their spells can, when badly handled, backfire.

You grow into it, because you're not supposed to just get a new one unless the old one is irreparably damaged - and in that case you really need to replace it because a damaged wand does all sorts of weird shit. In Book 2, Ron's broken wand was always sparking randomly, doing the wrong spell or (in two instances) performing the spell perfectly but from the wrong end of the wand.
>>49982205
Inheriting wands is generally for poorfags like the Weasleys who couldn't afford one for Ron so they just gave him Percy's old one. Neville got his dad's but it didn't really work for him. The only way to get a wand that isn't yours to work for you at full strength is to beat its current master in a duel. Being Disarmed is apparently enough, and it works long-distance, since Harry disarmed Draco and won the Elder Wand from him even though it was currently either in Dumbledore's cold, dead hands or Voldemort's cold, live hands. It's basically the "this guy comes up to you at the club and slaps your wand's ass, what do you do" and if you bitch out, the wand makes you into a cuck.

I don't think the site gives any correlation between wood effects and any actual lore regarding the trees themselves. Or if they do, I am not aware.

>Acacia wood only does magic for its owner, and only does a good job if its not a scrub. Doesn't do flashy or bangy magic, subtle and all

>Alder goes well with helpful and considerate people, good at nonverbal magic, like it's the opposite of the wood itself

>Apple tree wood is only available if you have 15+ charisma and firmly Good aligned

I mean, does any of that ring any bells? I'm not very knowledgeable on tree lore.

Actually, is there any book out there with legends about trees? I do love to know what different cultures linked to their flora, old fairy tales and all. If the Oak is always mighty and sturdy, it means other trees could get a similar thing going on

>>50007229
Sadly I was only in Alaska for 2 weeks. What I gathered though was the roots and shoots were considered to have medicinal poerties and were used to make tonic. Heck, you can even buy carbonated birch-based beverages in stores today.
The wood is really nice quality and when carved and used to make bowls and things they have beautiful rings and bands in them. Beavers also love chewing and eating the stuff. The bark is really papery and heavily layered, so you could peal and press it to make primitive paper, or you could process the birch to make ink or a rubber-like tar, or soak it to make castes for broken limbs. You can also tap them for sap to make syrup.

Birch grows relatively fast, nearly ramrod straight, and have small round leaves. They also burn pretty well too, since their bark doesn't offer much fire protection. They grow in thick stands too, packing in lots of birches in a single area at once.

Because of all these qualities, the natives made most of their wooden tools and the like from birch. One popular tool was a type of large fish hook, often carved with some sort of face or fetish in it, tied to a long rope and a bag of rocks, which they'd use to fish for halibut and cod.

So yeah, its essentially the "Do a bit of everything" tree, and there tends to be a shit ton of them, hence why the Native Alaskans loved them.
Heck, you can look at wiki to see its dozens of uses

A wand is a crutch for those who need it. It acts as a funnel for power, making it easier to control but ultimately limiting how much comes out at once.
True wizards must learn to grasp the arcane with nothing but their body, allowing the full force of magic to channel through their body. It is much harder, but much more worthwhile.

I dunno. I loved and enjoyed my time in Alaska, but the Hills and Plains of the central US are my calling now, at least until I graduate and spend more time traveling the world. It is here that I must learn the ways of the grass, scrub, and sage. Of fossorial bees, furtive armadillos, dozens of songbirds, the prong horns, the wild fires, and coyote.

I've currently been planning on learning how to properly construct dream catchers, and use the Catclaw Mimosa that grows on my property, as well as making some proper burn/smudge sticks, and maybe a ceremonial fan from dove and quail wings.

Maybe someday I'll return to the North West, and learn their ways, or maybe I go back to the North East, to the land of Pine and Swamp to experience the sandy soils and blueberry bushes. OR perhaps to newer places like Colorado, Montana, or perhaps to another country entirely.

I know not my future path, only that wherever it be, I shall strive to learn all I can to properly interact, manage, and respect the natural world of that place. Hence why I'm studying Wildlife Biology.

Hopefully my good ol' staff will see me through it all, and perhaps I may improve it with age to.

Where are you from? Because if you're in EU, I will tell you to GO TO AUSTRIA IMMEDIATELY AND HIKE THE ALPS! Heck, I personally recommend staying in smaller villages like Westendorf. and taking time to take the lifts there and go on a good hike.

Also, most Universities should have a bsic Wildlife/Management program you can take classes from (Disclaimer, they usually wont be in the Biology Department, as they are often bunched with the AgriScience departments).

Also, if you just want some vicarious stuff, I highly reccomend picking up and reading "A Sand County Almanac" by Aldo Leopold. Its essentially the Wildlife Management equivalent to the Bible.

The world is full of great natural wonder, even if no one else notices it. You just have to be willing to look, and wise enough to ask questions and keep your ears open.

Also, Urban Ecology has been an increasingly popular field of study. You could find some classes on it if you live in a heavy urban area.

See, I'm actually majoring in anthropology, but it also drags a lot of sociology and political science with it.

I should care, but honestly I don't. I just like people and lore. I might change to a biology field in the next years.

But no, not in yurop. I fucking wish. I live in Brazil and let me tell you, compared to other places out there there is zero infraestructure to get people in actual contact with the wilderness. There are national parks and scenic as fuck locations, but you're only supposed to stick to these particular areas, camping is also restricted to particular campgrounds, etc. Dispersed camping not only isn't a thing, there is actually nothing on the legislation about camping or any rights to national lands. National forests and such are apparently solely for preservation. You can't really just go in the wilderness.

I only really learned about the most /out/ type of life a couple years ago through a good friend in the US. Shit just didn't seem "possible" to me before that. As soon as it clicked that there was actually a way I could do those things myself my mind fucking exploded and I've been thinking about it ever since. I really want to learn, but again, the fact that it's hardly a thing in my country makes it a little harder because I keep trying to find ways to go about it the american/european way which is just not a reality here.

>See, I'm actually majoring in anthropology,
I suggest minoring in archeology a bit, or perhaps transcendentalist philosophy. Also, just try asking people, learning which are the right departments to ask, about how you can finagle your field of study to get you to actually do what you want.

Granted, this will require, lots of luck, initiative, and the ability to make good choices.

Honestly, my hopes go out to you anon. I wish you the best of luck, and I hope your life turns out better for you in the end. Sorry, I can't help anymore, I don't have much knowledge of Brazil, and most of what I barely know about South America comes from my mom's stories of when she was in Ecuador, Honduras, and Gitmo, and my uncles who occasionally would travel through the Andes.

I got a pheasant.

A fucking pheasant.

That's straight-up bad. Swans ARE cool. Geese? Geese have fucking symbolism. They're meant to be good. Not badass, no, but they're like friend doormouse -- hero material.

Me? I've got the stuck-up nobody. Not badass, not good.

I'm not even going to mention the wand. Obviously it didn't have either of the COOL interiors.

This is the one I like the most
Partly because its the one I spent the most time on

Whittled the shaft in a really rough fashion to look more witchy. Did washes of tea, ash, and a little ink going heavier the closer it got to the tip. Carved out a coil of branches in relief below the handle, stained that with ash and ink. The little pendant charm thing an the vines were an after thought

Dorje are a form of vajra, which are simultaneously weapons, meditative devices, and symbols of power. Specifically, they are those made of stone (most are made of brass or steel, occasionally bronze). Vajra means, simultaneously, "diamond" and "lightning bolt". They are Hindu and Buddhist metidative tools and spiritual weapons.

There are some designed as axes and swords as well. Hereis a set, being a phurba, an axe, and a bell. The one in the previous picture isd a vajra.

A pheasant would be a godsend. Or any patroneus that isn't a hissing horror attacking whatever is closest.

I looked around to see if there was a way to reddo the test at all, maybe even prevent it from saving. Needless to say didn't find a way, but did discover an iinteresting article showcasing Rowling's tweets. She mentiioned that a Patronus is not set in stonees in tthe Potter universe, that one's life experiences can change it. She then proceeded to talk about how the test even embodies that.

However the examples she gave involved her using the in dev version then the final version after it finally released and proceeded to talk about how it reflected the new people she met since then, yadda yadda. Funny how she goes on about how Patronus changed for her, but doesnt offer any such chance for others.

I would have gotten something other then a dang horse if I had clicked on an option a fraction of a second sooner. I click and bam 'oh sorry, you werent quick enough, have a different thing'

By the actual test I wound up with a rigid 10' redwood wand with a phoenix feather core.

My most recent RPG character would most likely wind up with a semi-rigid Alder wand of similar length and either unicorn or some lesser core.

I have it in my head now of an american foreign exchange student wizard at hogwarts.

>"oh, bollocks, its ameranon. Him and that broomstick of a redwood wand here to cock up another class"
>proffessor, "alright students for our defense against the dark arts class today, we are going to be doing a bit of freeform practice out on the grounds, i want you to take what youve learned and do the best you can today.

>out on the grounds, students throwing curses and jinxes at a straw dummy propped up on the lawn.
>student after student lines up, takes a shot, burns a small hole in the dummy l, maybe blows out a bit of straw. Lots of flourishes and swishy-pokey movements with their thin 9 inch to 14 inch wands

>Ameranons steps up for his turn with a 2 inch thick, 24 inch long redwood wand with a thunderbird tailfeather core. all the other students are sniggering and chuckling behind him, every other spellcasting class his results have been abysmal, from transfiguration, to charms and divination.

>whirling the wand over his head, the wand trails a fiery tail behind it lengthening as he snaps it out at the training dummy like cracking a bullwhip, shouting "HIROSHIMA!"

>by the time the smoke clears, there remains no trace of the training dummy but a smouldering crater deep enough to hide a troll in.
