nature of wand wood(2/3)
——
Elm elm
Many people have an unfounded belief that only pureblood wizards can use elm wands. This no doubt originated from some elm wand owners trying to prove their ancestry, but I know of wizards from Muggle families who have found elm wands suitable.
The fact is that elm wands like owners who are personable, magically gifted and inherently noble. Of all wands, elm wands are the least likely to malfunction and have graceful magic. Of all wands, they are the wands of wisdom.
, capable of performing advanced magic in the hands of the right owner (of course, this again supports the philosophy that elm staffs are very suitable for purebloods)

English Oak English Oak
A wand suitable for every situation, good or bad, it is the most loyal friend a wizard can have. Oak wands require strength, courage and responsibility. What is less known is that oak wand owners often have keen intuition.
Moreover, it has an affinity for natural magic, animals and plants. Between the winter solstice and the summer solstice, the oak tree is called the king of the forest, and oak can only be collected during this period (holly replaces the oak tree as the king of the forest after the summer solstice, so
Holly can only be collected at the end of the year. It is believed that this method of differentiation stems from the ancient superstition that 'if the owner of an oak wand meets the owner of a holly wand, then their union will be foolish', a
Superstition with no basis). It is said that Merlin's wand was made of English oak (although his tomb has not been found so it cannot be proven).

Fir
My stern grandfather, Gerbold Octavius Ollivander, often referred to the fir wand as the survivor's wand because the three wizards he sold it to all three wizards had without exception survived mortal danger and escaped unscathed. There is no doubt that
Such wands, derived from his most malleable wood, require stability and strength to be their true masters, and they make poor props in the hands of changeable and hesitant people. Fir wands are particularly suitable for Transfiguration,
They like owners who are focused, strong-willed, and occasionally, aggressive.

Hawthorn hawthorn tree
Wandmaker Gregorovitch once wrote: "The hawthorn wand is a strange, paradoxical wand. Like the tree itself, the hawthorn leaves and flowers have healing properties, while the smell of the hawthorn branches can kill."
"Although I can't agree with Gregorovitch on many things, we share a common understanding of the complex and fascinating properties of hawthorn wands, and they accept only the owner who best suits them. Hawthorn wands may be great for healing magic, but they are also very
Specializing in curses, I've often observed hawthorn wands favoring ambivalent personalities, or a wizard going through a chaotic period of his own. Hawthorn wands are difficult to master, so I would only give them to wizards who are obviously gifted.
, otherwise the consequences could be dangerous. They also have a noteworthy characteristic: if not operated properly, the spells they cast may backfire.

Hazel hazelnut tree
A sensitive wand, hazelnut wood wands often reflect the emotions of their owners. They work best with owners who can understand themselves and control their inner emotions. Users other than their owners must be particularly careful, because if his owner has recently
If you are in a bad mood or have suffered a huge emotional setback, hazelnut wands will absorb and release this negative emotion without warning. Despite the inconvenience of smiling, hazelnut wands have a bright side. They can do the trick.
Highly skilled in magic, and devoted to their master until the master dies and 'withers' (that is, they drain the magic out of the wand until it no longer works, often resulting in the need to replace the core of the wand if the wand still retains its core)
if needed; if the core of this wand is unicorn mane, then he is hopeless, this wand is almost dead). Hazelnut wood wands also have the unique ability to find underground water, if it passes through hidden springs
Fire wells, they release silvery tear-shaped smoke.

Holly holly tree
Holly is a rather rare wand material that is generally considered to have defensive properties. They are suitable for owners who need to overcome anger and anxiety. At the same time, holly wands are often chosen by owners who are involved in dangerous and spiritual pursuits.
The performance of holly wands depends largely on the material of their inner core, and their association with phoenix feathers is notorious, as holly has a strong resistance to the phoenix's material. In special cases, when
When this pairing happens, no one or anything can stop them.

Hornbeam Hornbeam, Hornbeam
My wand is made of hornwood, and I tell you without exaggeration that hornwood wands choose wizards who are gifted and obsessed with some kind of pure passion (I prefer to use 'vision'), and their vision is usually
will come true. Horned wands can quickly adapt to their owner's style of magic, and they personalize so quickly that other users will find it difficult to use them to cast a simple little spell. Horned wands absorb both
Their master's sense of honor, no matter what it concerns, good or bad, will refuse to act on anything that does not align with their master's principles. This is an extremely principled and self-aware wand.

Larch
Strong, durable, and with a warm color, larch has long been considered a valuable and attractive wand material. They have a reputation for instilling courage and confidence in their holders, so they are always in high demand.
The most popular wands are actually hard to find the ideal owner and are difficult to master. I have found that larch wands are often used with hidden special skills that often describe their owners. In fact, the owners of larch wands have a lot of experience with them before they own them.
Their talents may never be fully demonstrated, but after that wands and their masters develop an extraordinary rapport.

Laurel Laurel
It is said that laurel wands cannot cast dishonorable spells, and although the intention may be good, I have heard that they are very powerful and have cast killing curses. Laurel wands are sometimes considered to be flashy, which is actually an inappropriate view.
Laurel wands do not tolerate a lazy holder, and in this case they are easily defeated. Otherwise, they will stay with their first owners forever, and they will remain vulnerable to others trying to steal them.
When they do, they produce an electric shock.
Marple maple tree
I found that the owners of windwood wands are often people who naturally love traveling or exploring. They are not stay-at-home wands. They like wizards with ideals, otherwise their spells will become heavy and lifeless. Fresh
Challenges and constant changes will make the maple wand shine, as it grows in power and status alongside its companions. It is a charming and desirable wand, and for centuries maple wands have commanded the highest prices.
Not too high. Holding a maple wand has long been a sign of status, as it is considered the wand of high achievers.

Pear pear tree
Wands made of this gold-colored wood possess the magical ability of contact, which will be brought into full play when they encounter a warm-hearted, generous and wise owner. According to my experience, pear wood wands are
The owner is always popular and respected, and I have never heard of any pear wand being found to have belonged to a dark wizard. Plum wands are the most adaptable of wands, and I have often observed them retain their strength after many years of harsh treatment.
The wand still performs like new after use.

Pine bromeliad tree
Straight-grained bromeliad wands always choose an owner who is free-spirited, independent, and perhaps considered aloof, interesting, or mysterious. Rommel wands want to be used creatively, and unlike other wands, they
There is absolutely no aversion to new spells or techniques. Many wandmakers stress that pineapple wands will work well with owners who are destined to live long lives, and I'm sure I've personally never heard of a pineapple wand whose owner was very young.
He passed away at the time. The bromeliad wand is one of the wands that is very sensitive to silent spells.

Poplar, birch
"If you want integrity, look for poplar first", this was the motto of my grandfather Gerbold Ollivander. In my own experience, poplar wands are exactly like their owners. They are wands worth relying on,
Consistent, powerful and stable magic. They always prefer wizards with clear moral values. There is a tired old joke among wandmakers that poplar wands never choose politicians as their masters.
, but they ignored the sad truth: two poplar wands made by Ollivander belonged to two of the Ministry's most accomplished officials: Eldrith Diggory and Evangeline Orpington.

Red Oak red oak
You will often hear ignorant people refer to red oak wands as a reliable indicator of the wand owner's bad temper. In fact, the bearers of red oak wands possess unusual reflexes, which makes them an excellent combatant.
Wands. Less common than English oak, I have found that red oak wands suit owners who are quick-witted and easy-going, often one-of-a-kind, and eager to face a fight. In my opinion, red oak wands are the best of all wands.

Redwood redwood
Mahogany wands are always in short supply because they have a reputation of bringing good luck to their owners. In common wand legends, everyone can know a hidden truth: mahogany wands themselves do not bring luck, but they are always used
