    Issa thing. This thread's kinda dead, though, so we'd best be taking this discussion elsewhere...

    Kay in that case... SU time!
  6. Channelknight Fadran
    I hope you mean just in general, not as in you're planning for next Christmas already...

    I keep trying but people simply refuse to say hello to this wonderful language.

    First of all, Grindelwad cast a stunning spell on Gregorvitch. Just so you know. Second of all, the defeat/owner rule doesn't apply to all wands the same way. Have you ever wanted to know what "slightly springy flexibility" meant? It doesn't mean you can use your wand as a slinky. What a wand's flexibility means is how temperamental it is in terms of changing ownership. Everyone knows that 'the wand chooses the wizard' (it actually really bothers me when people quote this because they always do it in a 'dId YoU KNoW' kind of voice, as if I hadn't spent hours studying wandlore and literally nothing else HP related), which applies past the basic wand-giving 'ceremony' at Ollivanders. Once a wand is in a wizard's ownership, it belongs to that wizard. Depending on its flexibility, its tendency to switch with someone else changes. For example, the 'stiff' flexibility means that a wand will basically never change ownership, while the 'very springy' flexibility means that it's got the temperament of the Elder Wand. Also, it isn't necessarily canon that the only way for a wand to change ownership is through combat. I find it likely that combat ownership changes are just the only things we see in Harry Potter because those books have an awful lot of magical combat. I mean, we see people use other people's wands to an extent if the original wizard gives it to them (Neville uses his father's wand, Draco uses his mother's), though that's canonically not a foolproof system. And to answer your question further, Elu, I doubt most of the teachers even knew enough about wandlore to know that winning in combat could potentially end a wizard's ownership of their wand. TL;DR, wandlore is complicated. In my own opinion I imagine returning someone's wand willingly would certainly do the trick... but then again, wands are finicky. So who really knows for sure?

    Well Voldemort probably didn't know much about how Grindewald got the wand, but probably assumed based on his lengendary duel with Dumbledore that... y'know... a quick expelliarmus wouldn't cut it? Plus killing is something that Voldy's quite good at, so it was the natural solution to his problem.

    "Exactly."

    "That's why there's a two percent success rate instead of a zero percent success rate."

    He regretted it for roughly seven seconds then moved on. Voldemort's like that.

    So I've written 2/3rds of the Iconar Collective.

      Man, I really need to get to that art. I did some concepts for the enclave symbol but didn't do anything more.

    I've read it at least seven times, only have one homemade wand at my immediate disposal (my own: Cedar, 12 3/4ths inches, Unicorn Tail Hair, Slightly Springy Flexibility) plus about twenty others that I've made for other people (I made bank off of these things a couple summers ago). My bedroom is styled after Ravenclaw (best house eyyy) with a blue bed and bronze-ish painted walls (the color's actually "baguette" which just makes me happy). I was more of a Star Wars lego guy as a kid, so you beat me there, but I've also collected each of the four gemstones for each house (ruby, sapphire, emerald, and diamond), and the only reason I stopped re-re-re-re-re-re-re-reading the series is because rereading something that many times--no matter how good it is--can never be that great for your mental health. (Also that sounds amazing I wanna see)

    "Well humans probably aren't of any consequence to whoever hired me. Phoenixes are very rare, and everything from their feathers to their blood is incredibly valuable. As for fairies and pixies... well, one produces pixie dust, and the other has light magical abilities."

    "Well all Aspects and Veils are a reflection of your soul, and if your Aspect is based off of a certain qhoral element, then your soul has to as well."
  23. Channelknight Fadran
    "Not exactly. Bodies are vessels designed to maintain a soul, not just an empty shell that souls sit around in." Trace shrugged. "But I guess that's still what you're saying. I don't think they've been making completely human souls, per say. They're probably just making a soul from some basic qhoral elements and infusing it into a creature."
  24. Channelknight Fadran
    "Probably something to do with Veilotomy and... probably some sort of painful qhoral syringe."
  25. Channelknight Fadran
    "They can. What I've heard, though? They're making artificial souls."
