Pottermore

I've been on a Potter high since LeakyCon. Rereading Deathly Hallows, refreshing my email inbox once an hour in hopes of a Pottermore announcement, finding myself in lengthy debates to revival those preserved in 2006 forums. It's not that I'd gotten over Harry Potter-- far from it-- but even after spending months with my attentions elsewhere, Harry always seems to wiggle his way back to the forefront of my brain I'm facing some kind of uncertainty in life. I'm about to move into my first apartment, about to be 21, about to be facing the final years of my education, about to make a big career move. Nothing's really constant right now... except Hogwarts. No matter where or who I am, I'm always just a cover away from the Gryffindor common room, and this gives me more peace than I can really explain.

So in celebration of a new phase in the HP fandom, I shall now complete a Pottermore-related survey I found on tumblr. You can fill it out too, if you want (I'd legitimately be interested in reading your answers to some of them) and post it either as a comment or on your own blog/tumblr, so long as you give me a link. Ready?

  1. What's your Pottermore username? AccioWizard151.
  2. What House do you think it sounds like? Probably Hufflepuff, right? Because they're relational? And they'd want to... summon... friends?
  3. What House do you want to be in? Gryffindor. I've been confident in my allegiance to the scarlet and gold for a long time now and, frankly, I'll probably have some kind of identity crisis if the website tries to tell me otherwise.
  4. Does your username relate to you at all? No, not really. I was with a bunch of my very excited fandom friends when I registered and one of them told me it was the coolest of my options.
  5. What kind of wand would you wish to get? Something shorter than a foot so I wouldn't put anyone's eye out. Hopefully one that swishes when you whip it around.
  6. Are you pure, half-blooded or Muggle born? I'm pretty sure I'm a pureblood.
  7. Which day did you get into Pottermore? Day 1!
  8. What shape is your Patronus? A burrito.
  9. What does your boggart look like? Like Mrs. Weasley's-- the death of someone close to me.
  10. Would you rather be an Animagus or a Matamorphmagus? Tough one, but I'd probably go the Tonks route.
  11. If you were an Animagus, what animal would you be? I've thought a lot about this. I think I share some characteristics with cats, but my whole family hates them, so that might pose a problem. I don't know. What do you think?
Alright, all this talk of Rowling is making me anxious to cuddle up and read. I hope you all have a lovely day. I'll see you tomorrow!

1. What's your Pottermore username? GalleonSeeker191
2. What House do you think it sounds like? Slytherin, because they strike me as greedy folks, seeking the galleons.
3. What House do you want to be in? Ravenclaw. I have to be. It's in my blood. I'm all that a Ravenclaw should be, including the slight air of arrogance. :P
4. Does your username relate to you at all? Kinda. I've always thought I would be a Seeker on the Quidditch team, if I played. And who doesn't love money?
5. What kind of wand would you wish to get? Something awesome. I don't know how else to answer this...
6. Are you pure, half-blooded or Muggle born? I don't really know. Probably half-blood, but then again I always relate to Hermione, if she were male.
7. Which day did you get into Pottermore? Day 6.
8. What shape is your Patronus? I don't know. Maybe an owl, or an otter. See, it's the Hermione reference again. And they are so sute and awesome.
9. What does your boggart look like? Again with Hermione. Some form of failure. Or sharp objects. Is that a choice?
10. Would you rather be an Animagus or a Metamorphmagus? I agree. It's tough. Probably an Animagus.
11. If you were an Animagus, what animal would you be? Well, it's the same as the Patronus, so one of those two? I'd pick the Owl. Flying would be stellar.

1. What's your Pottermore username? AccioLumos191
2. What House do you think it sounds like?
I honestly have no idea.
3. What House do you want to be in? Gryffindor. I've always identified with that House, but I have a terrible fear I'll actually be put in Slytherin or Hufflepuff. (Nothing against them...it'd just be strange to be told I'm not what I've always hoped.)
4. Does your username relate to you at all?
Sort of actually. My immediate impression upon reading it was that it's summoning happiness; I'm not sure why. But it's certainly accurate of what these books mean to me.
5. What kind of wand would you wish to get?
The wand I made for myself is out of Apple Wood, because my hometown is mostly apple orchards and I've always loved that about it. But I think that's probably not a wood choice...
6. Are you pure, half-blooded or Muggle born?
Muggleborn.
Which day did you get into Pottermore?
Day 1, 4am, with 25 'Final Battle' friends on a massive Skype call! Best night I've had since LeakyCon.
7. What shape is your Patronus?
An Orca Whale. Partly because I just think it'd be rather comical to see a whale take down a Dementor.
8. What does your boggart look like?
Being sick. Though I'm really sure how that would look in a physical form.
9. Would you rather be an Animagus or a Metamorphmagus? Animagus.
10. If you were an Animagus, what animal would you be?
I'm not really sure; I've never had a good answer. Perhaps a bird of some kind.

I'm so stoked for Pottermore! I've also been on such a Potter kick lately. The Pottermania comes and goes a lot, but when it's here, it's here for a while. :) I love seeing the fandom unite again, especially since people were so "doom-and-gloom" when DH pt. 2 was released ("ZOMG IT'S OVER!!!"). It's nice to see everyone excited about this new chapter in our fandom!

storminmay said...

Oh, and here's the link to my survey. :)

Melody said...

1. What's your Pottermore username? HazelWatch98.
2. What House do you think it sounds like? Ravenclaw, probably. Matching vowels and all that.
3. What House do you want to be in? I think I'd actually accept whatever Jo gives me. I've identified as Hufflepuff for quite awhile though. And I dislike how much hate they get, even though it's supposed to be all in good fun. I'd like to think that wizards wouldn't consider any house the "loser" house.
4. Does your username relate to you at all? Well, my great-aunt's name is Hazel and she's a pretty cool lady.
5. What kind of wand would you wish to get? I just hope it has a phoenix feather. Unicorns are evil and dragon heartstrings give me the willies.
6. Are you pure, half-blooded or Muggle born? I'd most definitely be Muggle-born.
7. Which day did you get into Pottermore? Day 5.
8. What shape is your Patronus? Most definitely a dog.
9. What does your boggart look like? I've thought about this a lot over the years, and I still don't know. Real-world horcruxes and dementors are pretty freaking scary.
10. Would you rather be an Animagus or a Matamorphmagus? AAHHHH CAN'T PICK
11. If you were an Animagus, what animal would you be? Again, most definitely a dog. I freaking love dogs.

Jaine said...

I've been checking my email every 10 minuts too. I decided to fill out the survey very thoroughly, so I hope it keeps you entertained while waiting for your owl.

1. What's your Pottermore username? LumosStar14

2. What House do you think it sounds like? I don't really see LumosStar as relating to a house. In my mind your name doen't relate to your characteristics so why should it in pottermore... If I had to choose I would say Ravenclaw because stars light up and lumos lights one's wand thus making it a witty name.
3. What House do you want to be in? Hufflepuff! Frankly I'm not too concerned. Truly no other house fits me as well except perhaps Ravenclaw, but I ALWAYS put my friends well being over school work, and honestly everything in my life, so I think that puts me firmly in Hufflepuff.

4. Does your username relate to you at all? Actually yes! I started actively participating on the internet at the age of 14, joining forums and making my first online friends. 14 has since then been a very special number to me so when it poped up as a pottermore username choice, I was going to choose it no matter what the other words were. Fortunately I quite like them too!

5. What kind of wand would you wish to get? I completely forgot that we would be getting our wands too. I've been so concentrated on the sorting and just getting in. I've always been fond of birch. My irl wand is white birch with unicorn hair for a core, 14 inches, a bit too long, and bendy. So anything similar to that would make my day.

6. Are you pure, half-blooded or Muggle born? I always thought of myself as a half-blood. Even when I was younger and believed Harry's univers was real, my brain jumped from I am magical, my parents aren't--  I must be adopted. I'm not joking I distinctly remember asking my mom this question.

7. Which day did you get into Pottermore? Day two. I was at vidcon for day one. It's kind of a funny story. I didn't want to leave the dance so I figured I would just sign up the second night. I go up to my room assuming all the spots for the night were taken. I get up there and get a tweet from someone at vidcon saying they just signed up. I run down to the lobby and as soon as I log on to the internet, pottermore closes for the night.

8. What shape is your Patronus? I honestly have no clue. I feel like it should be a cat because I have a strong affinity to felines, but at the same time I want an interesting animal. Perhaps some kind of wild cat.

9. What does your boggart look like? I think disappointing those I love or losing a friendship over a mistake I made. A scene similar to Snape's Worst Memory comes to mind.

10. Would you rather be an Animagus or a Matamorphmagus? Definitely an Animagus. I think being able to escape into an an animal form would be comforting.

11. If you were an Animagus, what animal would you be? I would most defiantly be a house cat. I share so many characteristics with cats. There was never any question.

genevieve said...

Your first paragraph just pretty much summed up exactly how I feel about Harry Potter...there's a security about it that let's me escape my problems for awhile as I read and delve deeper into the world I've come to know so well for over 10 years now. Usually, when I tell people "Harry Potter changed my life" they give me funny looks, because they really have NO idea. It really is amazingly special and vital to all of us in so many ways.

So anyways, thank you for so eloquently describing what I have a hard time of explaining to people :)

Now onto my Pottermore survey! (slightly different version I found on tumblr)

1. Pottermore name:
SilverCharm73

2. What Hogwarts House do you think it SOUNDS like:
Ravenclaw definitely.

3. What Hogwarts House do you WANT to be in:
I don’t even know. I’ve gone through so many different House phases in my life, that I’m just gonna take whatever it thinks I fit best.

4. Does the username relate to you at all (why/why not):
Hmm, I suppose? I always thought Charms would be one of my favorite classes if I were to go to Hogwarts…and silver is pretty sounding to me so I suppose it fits?

5. What kind of wand would you wish to get:
I would love a unicorn hair or phoenix feather core. But I’m not too picky about wands.

6. Pure Blood/Half Blood/Muggle-born:
I fancy myself a Half-blood.

7. Which day 1-7 did you get into Pottermore:
DAY 1 BITCHES. I was refreshing all night and got in seconds after it opened.

8. Cat, Rat, Owl, or Toad?:
Owl, obviously. Specifically, I would love a barn owl :)

9. Expecto Patronum! What is your patronus shape and why?:
Either a fruit bat, a falcon or maybe an owl. Something winged.

10. Oh no! You’ve found a boggart! What does it look like?:
Something with grotesquely broken bones covered in tiny intricate holes. Shudder.

11. Riddikulus! Now what does it look like?:
Bill Murray in a tutu.

12. Would you rather be an Animagus or a Metamorphmagus and why?:
Metamorphmagus would be awesome! You could essentially be anything you wanted.

13. If you taught yourself to be an Animagus, what animal would best suit you and why?
Probably same as my patronus, some kind of winged creature. Because I would love to be free and agile.

Manar said...

1. What's your Pottermore username? FireboltDust26
2. What House do you think it sounds like? Gryffindor, because Harry had a Firebolt.
3. What House do you want to be in? Gryffindor! I'm a proud Gryff.
4. Does your username relate to you at all? Um, well I would love to fly on a Firebolt...I really love heights and going fast?
5. What kind of wand would you wish to get? The wand chooses the wizard. I just want my perfect match. :)
6. Are you pure, half-blooded or Muggle born? Half-blood. Mum's a muggle, but dad's a wizard.
7. Which day did you get into Pottermore? Day 1! :)
8. What shape is your Patronus? I have no idea. I have never been able to answer this question. But, hey, owls are my school mascot! #relevance
9. What does your boggart look like? Same as you and Molly. My loved ones dead, or in pain.
10. Would you rather be an Animagus or a Metamorphmagus? Metamorphmagus for sure! I find it to be a ton cooler. Also, it can't be learned.
11. If you were an Animagus, what animal would you be? A UNICORN. Or a phoenix. Yeah, probably a phoenix. That would be really fun, with the flying and the fire. And it would be really useful with the whole healing tears thing.

Two Wits said...

1. What's your Pottermore username? AsphodelBlade201
2. What House do you think it sounds like? Slytherin. It sounds like a badass name.
3. What House do you want to be in? Ravenclaw. I know it'll be Ravenclaw or Hufflepuff but I call myself a Ravenclaw. I'd be fine with either though. There is no way I'd ever be placed in Gryffindor or Slytherin though; it's just not me.
4. Does your username relate to you at all? I am in no way a badass so no. However I'm big on diction so I think Asphodel, which isn't that common of a word even in HP, is somewhat fitting.
5. What kind of wand would you wish to get? Willow, mainly for the Buffy connection.
6. Are you pure, half-blooded or Muggle born? Probably muggleborn. I'm really like Hermione.
7. Which day did you get into Pottermore? Day 2 (stupid work stopping me getting in the first day!)
8. What shape is your Patronus? A dog for sure. The breed is questionable though.
9. What does your boggart look like? Losing people I love.
10. Would you rather be an Animagus or a Metamorphmagus? I'd say Animagus. I'd love to be an animal and I'm not one for changing my look too often.
11. If you were an Animagus, what animal would you be? Same as my patronus; a dog.

Mayrose said...

1) NifflerMidnight6! Though, I made two, one for my friend who didn't have time to get on, so I can decide between that one and HazelJunx140.

2) Slytherin. Nifflers are always looking for gold, and midnight just sounds Slytherinish.

3) I've actively stayed away from assigning myself a house so I won't have a ginormous freak out when I get sorted. Though half the people at my nerdy school are Ravenclaws...

4) Nifflers are animals, I like animals. I enjoy being up at midnight, so sure.

5) As long as I have a unicorn hair in mine, I'm good.

6) Pure-blood, most definitely.

7) Day 3

8) A cow or a cat. I JUST WANT TO HUG THEM ALL!

9) It'd be a gigantic shrimp with eyes and antenne and legs and everything telling me I failed everything (so basically my two worst fears combined).

10) Metamorphmagus, most definitely.

11) A cat, since cows smell bad.

5.What kind of wand would you wish to get? Not too short, not too long.
6.Are you pure, half-blooded or Muggle born? Half-blood probably, because out of my parents, only one is a Harry Potter fan.

8.What shape is your Patronus? Hm... I am going to go with a tiger. I don't know why.
9.What does your boggart look like? It is impossible to know. I am way too easily frightened.

Desi G said...

Ahh, that last anon comment was me. Grr. Stupid accidental posting.
Hey Hayley! I did this on my blog, because I'm attempting BEDA too (and failing.) But yeah, http://hallowsnothorcruxes.blogspot.com/2011/08/beda-8-maybe-pottermore.html that is my attempt at the survey!

Stefan said...

Um.. excuse me.. what career change? I've been a fan (friend from afar?) for so long that simple statements get me oddly excited. I can't wait to hear more about this.



1) What's your Pottermore username? LeviosaDust165.

What House do you think it sounds like?
Is this a thing? I have no idea.

What House do you want to be in?
Gryffindor probably. I think I'm fairly brave, in some ways. I have loose Slytherin tendencies but I find my ambition tends to fall flat. I am fairly practical.. but perhaps not too friendly.

Does your username relate to you at all?
I'm kinda happy it has a spell in it. Kinda sounds like a band name.

What kind of wand would you wish to get?
I'm fairly partial to dragons.

Are you pure, half-blooded or Muggle born? Muggle born. I need to know about muggle technology.

Which day did you get into Pottermore?
Day 4 which I know is kinda lame.

What shape is your Patronus?
Perhaps a cheetah when I was younger. Now perhaps a murlock. RwlRwlRwlRwl!

What does your boggart look like?
a swarm of bees

Would you rather be an Animagus or a Matamorphmagus? Matamorphmagus without question.

If you were an Animagus, what animal would you be?
something that flies would be nice. an eagle of some sort?

Bryce said...

Here is my survey. I definitely enjoyed yours.

Pip said...

This is fun! I don't post this kind of thing on my tumblr so I'll get it out of my system here.

1. HazelStorm25
2. Gryffindor? How does a username sound like a house?
3. Ravenclaw...I like being smart.
4. Nope. Sorry, if I took the name from someone named Hazel or someone with hazel eyes...but my other options were stupid.
4. I want the wand that chooses me.
5. Half-blood. Mom is a witch. Dad is a kindly Muggle (he just doesn't get the whole magical world thing...)
6. Day 4, the first day the east coast could get a normal night's sleep and still register.
7. I call my best friend Julia my patronus because she keeps real life dementors away...But since that's obviously just a cute best friend thing, really my patronus is probably a horse (I grew up riding horses).
8. Shark
9. Metamorphmagus.
10. A tiger because tigers are badass.

Sabrina said...

What House do you want to be in? Slytherin, but i would be fine with ravenclaw or gryffindor. just NOT hufflepuff. i hope i get slytherin though since it has been my favorite house all along.

Kara said...

1. What's your Pottermore username? MirrorHeart188.
2. What House do you think it sounds like?
Probably Ravenclaw. I think it sounds like the Mirror of Erised.. and that seems very Ravenclawish.
3. What House do you want to be in?
Hufflepuff. It took me a long time to accept the fact that I probably belong there, but now that I have I want to so I can see all of the cool new info.
4. Does your username relate to you at all? Um, I think so. A little. I was between two names and this one really jumped out at me. I think it's because when I look in the mirror, I'm looking at my heart and soul, not just my face.

6. Are you pure, half-blooded or Muggle born? Muggle born

1. What's your Pottermore username? PhoenixDawn53.
2. What House do you think it sounds like? Gryffindor, with the phoenix and all.
3. What House do you want to be in? Gryffindor. I share qualities with all the houses, but I'm definitely a red and gold girl. Hopefully not going to end up with an identity crisis once I face the hat...

NifflerMagic208
2. What House do you think it sounds like?
Hufflepuff, because you know a niffler should totally be the actual Hufflepuff mascot.
3. What House do you want to be in?
Gryffindor. It's been my favorite house since I was 7. :)
4. Does your username relate to you at all?
Nope. It just sounded cool. Although I do think nifflers are cuddly and adorable... as long as there's nothing shiny nearby.
5. What kind wand would you wish to get?
Hmm. I'll let the wand choose me first.
6. Are you pure, half-blooded or Muggle born?

MagicDawn201

Day 7, now shush. I wasn't going to get up at 4 a.m. to sign up. and day 5 I could've but then i had to go with my mom somewhere and missed it.

8. What shape is your Patronus?
Well then...I'd like it to be a bunny or something like that.

9. What does your boggart look like?
Being pulled to the bottom of the ocean, or falling down a bottomless pit.

10. Would you rather be an Animagus or a Metamorphmagus?
I was gonna say Animagus, but then I changed my mind. That'd be sweet to change anything about your looks at will.


11. If you were an Animagus, what animal would you be?
Oh dear...I have no clue.

Megan said...

I'm also going through a bit of a Potter phase. I'm rereading the series, again. Right now on #5, which has always been my least favorite, though I'm beginning to realize it's like... the beginning. We're introduced to so many things that are SO important later on, and many things from the past are also explained. I don't know. I didn't like it much before, and while it still remains kind of dark and gloomy, I'm beginning to appreciate it so much more.

ANYWAYS.

1. What's your Pottermore username? OakScarlet5

2. What House do you think it sounds like? Well, scarlet implies Gryffindor. Oak implies... trees.

3. House do you want to be in?
I really have no idea. I feel like I'm almost an equal mix of every house, though that could be just be being indecisive. I really don't think I'm a Gryffindor. I'd probably WANT Ravenclaw or Slytherin. I'd probably end up in Hufflepuff, even though... I'd rather not.

4. Does your username relate to you at all? Well, trees are kind of cool. Never really been that into red, so...

5. What kind of wand would you wish to get? A pretty one! OH. OAK. DUH.

6. Are you pure, half-blooded or Muggle born? Either pureblood or muggle-born, and probably not in between.

7. Which day did you get into Pottermore? Day 4.

8. What shape is your Patronus? A horse.

9. What does your boggart look like? Probably a way worse-off version of me.

10. Would you rather be an Animagus or a Matamorphmagus? Animagus!

11. If you were an Animagus, what animal would you be? Everybody wants to be a cat. Because a cat's the only cat who knows where it's at.

Kat said...

Oh man, I cannot resist a good HP survey. Particularly one that allows me to see people's hilariously horrible Pottermore usernames.

1. What's your Pottermore username? SeekerCrimson202
2. What House do you think it sounds like? It is painfully Harry (except for the part that makes it sound like a class), which means Gryff.
3. What House do you want to be in? Ravenclaw. Last weekend I was hanging out with my friend and her friend I barely know, and I suddenly realized the extent to which I never shut up about school / my professors / research / books. Plus I already have a scarf.
4. Does your username relate to you at all? Ha, no. My friend actually picked it for me because 1) I was out-of-town without internet access, and 2) she is awesome.
5. What kind of wand would you wish to get? Yeah, I do not have strong feelings about this. One with limited capacity for eye injuries would be good, however.
6. Are you pure, half-blooded or Muggle born? Probably half-blood.
7. Which day did you get into Pottermore? the fourth
8. What shape is your Patronus? Um. An owl? A... tough one?
9. What does your boggart look like? Yeah, some variation on people I love dying.
10. Would you rather be an Animagus or a Metamorphmagus? Animagus -- I feel like there are too many identity issues wrapped up in being a Metamorphmagus.
11. If you were an Animagus, what animal would you be? Yeah, probably a cat. I'm already primed to be a crazy cat lady when I grow up.

Christina said...

1. What's your Pottermore username? AsphodelPatronus64
2. What House do you think it sounds like? Hufflepuff (Asphodel = flower, Prof Sprout = Herbology)
3. What House do you want to be in? Ravenclaw.
4. Does your username relate to you at all? Nope! My friend made it, so I had no choice in the matter.
5. What kind of wand would you wish to get? Something sturdy and strong and sensible, because I am a klutz and will be dropping it constantly.
6. Are you pure, half-blooded or Muggle born? Half-blood.
7. Which day did you get into Pottermore? I'm not sure about this. Refer to question #4.
8. What shape is your Patronus? A manta ray.
9. What does your boggart look like? Some horrible creature.
10. Would you rather be an Animagus or a Metamorphmagus? Metamorphmagus, I tire of things easily so being able to change appearance at will would suit me.
11. If you were an Animagus, what animal would you be? A honey badger.

Caliowin said...

1. What's your Pottermore username? AccioWitch116.

2 What House do you think it sounds like? Ravenclaw... not sure why it just reminds me of them.


3. What House do you want to be in? Gryffindor or Ravenclaw. I don't mind too much which, but I think I do feel a stronger connection to Gryffindor then Ravenclaw.

4. Does your username relate to you at all? Not really, other than I'm now a witch... I did have a poor choice compared with other people's usernames by the looks of it. It was the best of a bad bunch, buts it's growing on me now.

5. What kind of wand would you wish to get? I want a swishy one, about 10 inches. Content wise not overally bothered, but I'd like an attractive wood.

6. Are you pure, half-blooded or Muggle born? I feel half-blooded.

7.Which day did you get into Pottermore? Day 2! On day 1 I was too busy.

8. What shape is your Patronus? A wolf

9. What does your boggart look like? I think I'd see the death of those I love or spiders!

10. Animagus or a Matamorphmagus? Animagus

11. If you were an Animagus, what animal would you be? I'd like to be a bird, but I don't feel I would be. I think I'd probably be a cat or something similar

clairechiisan said...

1. What's your Pottermore username? AurorFelicis3
2. What House do you think it sounds like? Ravenclaw comes to mind. Not sure why, though.
3. What House do you want to be in? Gryffindor, too! I think I'm too fiery to be in any other house, and I'm always up for fighting for good.
3. Does your username relate to you at all? Well, I'd say my favourite potion would be Felix Felicis - so yeah it does in a way :)
4. What kind of wand would you wish to get? Any, so long as it was kick ass.
5. Are you pure, half-blooded or Muggle born? Muggle-born. Can't see either of my parents being magical.
6. Which day did you get into Pottermore? Day 1 by pure chance (i only learnt about the 7 day entry on the same day)
7. What shape is your Patronus? A lion
8. What does your boggart look like? Me, alone.
9. Would you rather be an Animagus or a Matamorphmagus? Matamorphmagus.
10. If you were an Animagus, what animal would you be? A horse. I've always liked horses, been around them for 13 years and so I feel like I can understand their behaviour. There's one horse in particular, Sunset who I seem to have a bit of a connection with. She's very unpredictable with people but I seem to be one of few who can calm her down and make her listen to me. So yeah, a horse would be fitting.

Anonymous said...

"Nothing's really constant right now... except Hogwarts. No matter where or who I am, I'm always just a cover away from the Gryffindor common room, and this gives me more peace than I can really explain." -- This is *exactly* how I feel.


1. What's your Pottermore username? SpellDream9
2. What House do you think it sounds like? Errr...maybe Hufflepuff? All the usernames are kind of amusing xD
3. What House do you want to be in? Ravenclaw pride! <3
4. Does your username relate to you at all? Not particularly, no...I picked this one because it had the fewest numbers in it lol
5. What kind of wand would you wish to get? I don't really know! I guess I'd agree with you Hayley, and say something not too big. And I think I'd prefer unicorn tail hair or phoenix feather to dragon heartstring.
6. Are you pure, half-blooded or Muggle born? I dont really care
7.Which day did you get into Pottermore? Day 2...I was busy on the first day and completely forgot :O
8. What shape is your Patronus? Probably a sloth. That's not so useful. Hmm.
9. What does your boggart look like? Yeah, I'd have to say people close to me dying as well. 10. Animagus or a Matamorphmagus? Ummm...hmmm...I think I'd go with animagus, it would just be such a fascinating experience, being a totally different species.
11. If you were an Animagus, what animal would you be? Something not too conspicuous, but not too easily squashable xD A hamster maybe?

Carrie said...

I have not joined Pottermore yet BUT I can answer SOME questions! I would definitely say I am a Grufflenclaw. Because I am indecisive. I loved Harry Potter but it is the Percy Jackson series that holds that same comfort in my heart!

Lauren Sauer said...

1. What's your Pottermore username? HawthornWing198
2. What House do you think it sounds like? Probably Ravenclaw
3. What House do you want to be in? I don't...even...know. I was pretty sure I was a Hufflepuff, but then PJ, like, analyzed my personality on Tumblr and now all I can hear is "You could be great, you know, and Slytherin will help you on the way to greatness, no doubt about that." GAH.
4. Does your username relate to you at all? Nah. I didn't even know there were 5 options because I was so frantic and excitable, so I think I just clicked one without even realizing it. I like it though.
5. What kind of wand would you wish to get? I quite like Professor Snape's wand, which is the one I bought at Universal, so one with that length would be ideal.
6. Are you pure, half-blooded or Muggle born? Muggleborn...my parents don't get anything Potter-related.
7. Which day did you get into Pottermore? Day 1, bitches.
8. What shape is your Patronus? A peacock.
9. What does your boggart look like? A rapist...or a huge poisonous snake.
10. Would you rather be an Animagus or a Matamorphmagus? Metamorphmagus, then you wouldn't have to deal with the nastiness of Polyjuice Potion, assuming you could really do a good job of disguising yourself.
11. If you were an Animagus, what animal would you be? Maybe, like, a puppy or something.

Miranda said...

I didn't get in :'( but it's okay, I feel as if I'm making up for it by rereading the series so it's all fresh in my mind.
I know how you feel about getting sorted, and I think that's what most people are feeling too, since some of us have sorted ourselves for a long time. I am almost tempted to "cheat" and answer all the questions to make sure I'm a Ravenclaw. Oh shit, does that make me a Slytherin? A Slytherclaw?
So I'm not knitting myself a house scarf yet, but I am stocking up on blue and bronze.

1. What's your Pottermore username? WitchMarauder145
What House do you think it sounds like? Gryffindor? Coz the marauders were in Gryffindor??

What kind of wand would you wish to get? Um not too short and stubby (hehe) and with a nice swish and flick :)
Are you pure, half-blooded or Muggle born? I'd hazard a guess at half blood...?
Which day did you get into Pottermore? Day 2 :)
What shape is your Patronus? Dolphin!
What does your boggart look like? Probably being stuck in one place, trapped, without freedom.
Would you rather be an Animagus or a Matamorphmagus? Metamorphmagus :)
If you were an Animagus, what animal would you be? Well a dolphin would be quite impractical so maybe a bird. That would be useful :)

This doesn't have much to do with your post but I thought you'd enjoy this little story. Last night my friend and I ended up at one of those huge parties where everyone is wasted and we were completely sober. So we played a game to pass the time called, "Get a drunk person to read Harry Potter to us in a British accent." I just happened to have Prisoner of Azkaban in my purse, and I promise it was hysterical. In the end we got ten people to read to us drunk. Some people started out with an "English" accent and then it would just morph into Chinese or Spanish or Russian. I laughed so hard.

So the moral is that if you carry around a Harry Potter book regularly, hilarity will definitely ensue.

Glad you're back :).

1. What's your Pottermore username? SkySnitch156
2. What House do you think it sounds like? I'm not sure. Gryffindor? Whenever I hear "Snitch" I think of Harry.
3. What House do you want to be in? Gryffindor. Though I would also be ok with Hufflepuff, because it was fairly recently that I decided between the two. Ravenclaw wouldn't be so bad either, but it's better than Slytherin. I'm just not a Slytherin.

5. What kind of wand would you wish to get? I seriously know nothing about the wand-types so it doesn't matter much to me.
6. Are you pure, half-blooded or Muggle born? Half-blood, I think (I am so decided on all of these things just look at my conviction).

NightMarauder102
2.What House do you think it sounds like?
Gryffindor I guess - just cause the Marauders were all Gryffindor.

Hufflepuff. But I guess I would also accept Ravenclaw.
4.Does your username relate to you at all?
No, the other options were just lame... :D This one sounds kind of cool.

Something simple, like Harry's I guess. Unicorn hair. :)

Matamorphmagus!

Deer, again.

Miranda said...

1. What's your Pottermore username?
BloodGold134

2. What House do you think it sounds like?
definitely slytherin

3. What House do you want to be in?
ravenclaw forever. I have always been the snarky intellectual type and I just can't see being in any other house.

4. Does your username relate to you at all?
not at all, but it was the one that sounded least like the name of a neopet (I'm pretty sure one was faeriequeen, but I might be making that up)

5. What kind of wand would you wish to get?
I totally forgot we would even be getting wands! maybe birchwood?

6. Are you pure, half-blooded or Muggle born?
muggle-born. parents just don't understand, right?

7. Which day did you get into Pottermore?
day two. I fell asleep in front of my computer waiting for the hint, and right before I went to bed around 5:30 I refreshed the page one last time and the clue was up!

8. What shape is your Patronus?
a crane

9. What does your boggart look like?
I'm the most scared of being stuck in small spaces so like... a coffin?

10. Would you rather be an Animagus or a Metamorphmagus?
metamorphmagus!

11. If you were an Animagus, what animal would you be?
can it be the same as my patronus? I just love cranes.

Helen said...

What's your Pottermore username?
AsphodelAuror211
What House do you think it sounds like?
Ummm...Slytherin, maybe? I probably think that because asphodel is a potions ingredient, and I automatically think of Slytherin when I think of potions.

What House do you want to be in?
I haven't really had an extremely stong affinity to a specific house, so I'm not really worried about it. If I had to guess which one I would be in, I would say either Ravenclaw or Hufflepuff.

Does your username relate to you at all?
Not really. I mean, I like flowers, but I don't think I would want to be an auror.

What kind of wand would you wish to get?
It would be really cool to get dragon heartstring or unicorn hair.

Are you pure, half-blooded or Muggle born? I had to think about this one for a minute. I would say that I'm a half-blood. I'm not sure why, though.

Which day did you get into Pottermore?
Day 3. I actually got mugglenet tweets sent to me phone so that I would know right when the clue went up.

What shape is your Patronus?
I feel like your patronus should reflect the kind of person you are, but I don't know what animal I relate to most. I'm going to say that my patronus would be a dragon, because that would be completely badass.

What does your boggart look like?
Like you and Mrs. Weasley, The death of someone I love.

Would you rather be an Animagus or a Metamorphmagus? An Animagus, for sure.

If you were an Animagus, what animal would you be?
A unicorn. Or an owl.

Anonymous said...

1. What's your Pottermore username? StoneRune92
2. What House do you think it sounds like? Hufflepuff, because they're strong and steady, like stone. Besides, Hufflepuff corresponds with Earth.
3. What House do you want to be in? Hufflepuff all the way. Like you, Hayley, I may have an identification crisis if I am sorted differently.
4. Does your username relate to you at all? Like I said, it sounds like a Hufflepuff name and I am a Hufflepuff all the way. Besides, I love rock climbing and History, and StoneRune sounds kind of related to them both.
5. What kind of wand would you wish to get? The wand that chooses me would be the perfect one.
6. Are you pure, half-blooded or Muggle born? Half-Blood. My mother is a witch but my dad is a muggle (in other words, my dad refuses to read Harry Potter and my mum loves it.)
7. Which day did you get into Pottermore? Day 1. I was so happy.
8. What shape is your Patronus? Hmm... Probably a Koala.
9. What does your boggart look like? Rejection.
10. Would you rather be an Animagus or a Metamorphmagus? Very hard. I'd say... Um... Probably an Animagus. I would love to be a Metamorphmagus though.
11. If you were an Animagus, what animal would you be? Again, Koala. I'm cuddly, sleepy, but can be agile, love being up high and climbing (tree's as well as rocks) and I've heard that Koala's like to swim (I love swimming) and I'm also Australian. Definitely a Koala.

Alina said...

1. What's your Pottermore username? CauldronMugwump89
2. What House do you think it sounds like?
Hufflepuff, it's the most loserish username I've heard yet. :P
3. What House do you want to be in? Hufflepuff, I suppose. I'm not brave or smart or ambitious. I'd love to be a Gryffindor, but I know I'm not brave enough.
4. Does your username relate to you at all?
I guess so? I kinda figured I'd get stuck with the most uncool name. haha.
5. What kind of wand would you wish to get?
My grandpa made me a wand out of Rosewood, so I guess I'd like to have one made out of that, but smaller than the one he made me.
6. Are you pure, half-blooded or Muggle born?
Muggleborn. I've definitely grown up feeling out of place.
Which day did you get into Pottermore?
Day 2, 6am. After I woke up too early on day 1 and missed the clue I woke up every hour the second day until I got in.
7. What shape is your Patronus?
I'm not sure. I really like foxes, but I don't think they really reflect who I am. Maybe a hedgehog or a kind of bird. I wish I could just make a real patronus to see!
8. What does your boggart look like?
ugh, either my family dead or a rapist.
9. Would you rather be an Animagus or a Metamorphmagus? Animagus, unless my animagus was something really awkward like a wild boar.
10. If you were an Animagus, what animal would you be?
Possibly a cat. I'm not sure.

1. What's your Pottermore username?
NifflerProphecy61
2.What House do you think it sounds like?
Hmm the treasure-hunting niffler might be a bit slytherin-ish but maybe equally Gryffindor in that treasure doesn't have to just be wealth but also happiness and love. It could also be intelligence actually. It depends on your take :D
3.What House do you want to be in? I'd be happy for anything but Hufflepuff, sorry Hufflepuffs - nothing personal. That being said, I probably wouldn't be very loyal if I was a slytherin. I may even have doubts with Ravenclaw. My true loyalty is with Gryffindor, always.
4.Does your username relate to you at all? Hmm, I think so. Not in the materialistic sense off a treasure hunting niffler, but in the happiness route. On the other hand, I'm not a big believer of fate and consequently, prophecies. 61's a nice number. Add them together and you get 7, magical number BOOM. I just made my username a whole lot cooler than what I thought it was.
5.What kind of wand would you wish to get? Hmm, I don't mind on the wood but preferably not dragon heart-string. I'd feel forever guilty when using my wand and even may just stop using it all together. Poor dragons.
6.Are you pure, half-blooded or Muggle born? Half-blood (my dad's secretly a wizard because he knows everything - I actually thought that when I was younger and watched Charmed and Sabrina the Teenage Witch religiously).
7.Which day did you get into Pottermore? 1st day, WOO!
8.What shape is your Patronus? Hmmm, maybe a dog, or a cat. Probably a dog.
9.What does your boggart look like? Hmm, probably the death of my dad, or sister. Or anyone close to me for that matter, too.
10.Would you rather be an Animagus or a Metamorphmagus? Metaporphmagus, cause I could shapeshift into anything AND anyone. Now that's cool.
11.If you were an Animagus, what animal would you be? Ooh, probably a bird. Or maybe a dragon and scare the shit out of everyone. Actually I could be a dodo and fascinate the shit out of everyone (in a peaceful, funny way, not in a I'M GONNA EAT ALL YOU MMMM GRRRR NOM NOM NOM kind of way. Hmm, dodo or dragon? Fascinating or Scary? Tough choice both would be funny. (Within reason of course!) Fuck it, I'd be cat. A cat with wings. I like wings. The idea you can go anywhere you like. But I like being lazy. Cats are lazy. Birds aren't always lazy. Bit conflicting cause cats eat birds but still, it'd be cool. I'd be the motherfucking link.

1. What's your Pottermore username? HallowChestnut149.

2. What House do you think it sounds like? Well if I'm going with your logical reasoning... Gryffindors find the Hallows, right? And Peter Pettigrew's wand was chestnut. So, Gryffindor. (We're gliding over the whole Peter-was-evil thing, okay?)

3. What House do you want to be in? Go, go, Gryffindor! Woo! But no, yeah, Gryffindor. Definitely.

4. Does your username relate to you at all? Not particularly. I mean, I'm not a Deathly Hallow, and neither am I chestnut, and I am certainly not 149. So, no.

5. What kind of wand would you wish to get? Oak. Something light in colour. 14 1/4 inches. Unicorn tail hair core. I'm 6' 3", so I will need something long. I hope that my wand is firm, powerful, but difficult to master, and its allegiance is strong to its original owner. (Wandlore is my favourite thing in the Potter world, so, y'know.)

6. Are you pure, half-blooded or Muggle born? I hope I'm Muggle born or halfblood!

7. Which day did you get into Pottermore? Day 1!

8.What shape is your Patronus? A horse.

9. What does your boggart look like? Probably a giant frog. #superficialboggart

10. Would you rather be an Animagus or a Matamorphmagus? Animagus. I don't think I'd like having SO many options. Animagus. Definitely.

11. If you were an Animagus, what animal would you be? I have never really been able to decide. I'd like to be something big, unlike to Rita Skeeter's beetle form, but then the only thing I can think of that is big is a horse, and that is just uncomfortably big. Perhaps a large bird of some kind?

Here's my survey:

http://theawesomeeve.blogspot.com/2011/08/lot-of-potter.html

Really liked reading yours, I always thought of you as a Gryffindor ^^ Pretty excited to see where Pottermore sorts us all.

laurammeansbusiness. said...

I'm so glad you understand. I've been on a totally Potter high. Wizard Rock, Books, videos, anything Potter and I'm in.

Rachel said...

1. What's your Pottermore username?
Crimsonmoon33
2. What House do you think it sounds like?
Um I feel as though it could fit any of them. It could be sinister enough for Slytherin, or be a literary reference (Ravenclaw), it could represent bravery (Gryffindor), or just sound cool (Hufflepuff).
3. What House do you want to be in?
I want to be in Ravenclaw but I would be ok with Hufflepuff.
4. Does your username relate to you at all?
I like the mystery in it, but it probably doesn't have a huge relation to me. It sounded cool.
5. What kind of wand would you wish to get?
Not sure, I am excited to see what I get.
6. Are you pure, half-blooded or Muggle born?
I think I am a half-blood.
7. Which day did you get into Pottermore?
I got in on Day 2.
8. What shape is your Patronus?
An Anteater
9. What does your boggart look like?
Like Mrs. Weasley's-- the death of someone close to me. Or something like Hermione's.
10. Would you rather be an Animagus or a Matamorphmagus?
Hmmm. Difficult. Maybe a Animagus.
11. If you were an Animagus, what animal would you be?
Probably a cat.

Truth be told I'm really just starting to read the Harry Potter books now. I mean, I've casually looked through some at school before, and seen all the movies, but I'm only now actually reading and paying attention to them

Anna said...

1. What's your Pottermore username?
OwlLeviosa24
2. What House do you think it sounds like?
Ravenclaw. Ravenclaw is the air element, and owls are in air, and leviosa -- you know, like levitation. So yeah.
3. What House do you want to be in?
Ravenclaw. I think I'm pretty well balanced in all of the traits, though. I could see myself as a Gryffindor. Or maybe a Slytherin or a Hufflepuff. But at heart, I feel like a Ravenclaw.
4. Does your username relate to you at all? Yes. I'm always up at night, and I like flying, so... Sorta?
5. What kind of wand would you want to get?
The wand chooses the wizard.
6. Are you pure, half-blooded or Muggleborn?
Muggleborn.
7. What day did you get into Pottermore? Day 2.
8. What shape is your Patronus?
Pterodactyl. Deal with it.
9. What shape does your Boggart look like?
How do you think a Boggart would handle isolation or being ostracized and judged?
10. Would you rather be an Animagus or a Metamorphagus?
Animagus.
11. If you were an Animagus, what animal would you be?
A pterodactyl. Deal with it.

CeliaAnn said...

It's never too late to join the party, right!?

1. What's your Pottermore username? DawnNettle178

2. What House do you think it sounds like? It definitely sounds Hufflepuff. I can see myself getting sorted there so easily and it scares me.

3. What House do you want to be in? I definitely, completely feel like a Ravenclaw.

4. Does your username relate to you at all? Um...Dawn is my favourite time...and Nettle's like a plant/drink thing, right? I like that. I think it sounds pretty.

5. What kind of wand would you wish to get? An inexpensive one. OH WAIT. Wands only cost 7 Galleons. That doesn't seem like much, no it seems like a bargain...So, I guess a good sized one. Too long would be annoying.

6. Are you pure, half-blooded or Muggle born? I think half-blooded. One of my parents has magic, I'm sure.

7. Which day did you get into Pottermore? Day 1! Inside of a blanket fort with my best friends!

8. What shape is your Patronus? A pink flamengo. I think that works for me.

9. What does your boggart look like? The people I care about dead. I'm a worry wart. Or, like, me old having not done anything with my life. Life is scurry, yo.

10. Would you rather be an Animagus or a Metamorphmagus? Metamorphmagus, absolutely.

11. If you were an Animagus, what animal would you be? I think it could be a ferret. Like, they can be cute, they like dawn and dusk, and they like to dance around. And reluctantly I do sleep a lot. Yeah, it's a ferret.

Kendall said...

1. What's your Pottermore username?
WildWillow73
2. What House do you think it sounds like?
Gryffindor, right? Because it has the word 'wild' in it, and Gryffindors are... wild?
3. What House do you want to be in?
Ravenclaw I think.
4. Does your username relate to you at all?
I don't think so.
5. What kind of wand would you wish to get?
I don't really have any preference, but maybe something small.
6. Are you pure, half-blooded or Muggle born?
I'm pretty sure I would be Muggle born.
7. Which day did you get into Pottermore?
Day 6.
8. What shape is your Patronus?
A panda bear.
9. What does your boggart look like?
No idea. I'm scared of everything. It could be the death of the people I love, the dentist, tuition bills, anything.
10. Would you rather be an Animagus or a Metamorphmagus?
Animagus, maybe?
11. If you were an Animagus, what animal would you be?
Something that flies!

I did the survey, too. It wasa really fun, here's the link: http://magicalmansion.blogspot.com/2011/08/very-potter-introduction.html
So what house are you in now?

Julia Rose said...

Ahh! I got in! Finally! The site was down for three or four days cuz everyone was trying to get in. I always thought I was a hufflepuff. But today, I am a Gryffindor. I'm flattered, frankly, but I'm having a bit of an identity crisis.

sterff1face said...

I can finally post here! I was so jealous when I saw all these quizzes and found out I was too late to join. I had been regularly checking that dang website from June, then somehow forgot, right when it opened. So yes. That was my rant. Now have a random post on an eight month old post. =D


What's your Pottermore username? MagicLight17469.

What House do you think it sounds like? Hmm... it's pretty general, but it has a bit of a Ravenclaw lilt to it, if you ask me.
What House do you want to be in? I've never seen myself as a Gryffindor or a Hufflepuff to be perfectly frank. I've always thought Ravenclaw's kind of smart-alec/sarcasm fit me, but that could also fit Slytherin. The only thing that prevented ever prevented me from throwing myself all the way at Slytherin was that the house members in the books were all douches. But I guess there's not rule saying you have to be friends only with the people in your house...
Does your username relate to you at all? Um, because I'm magic? Because it's Harry Potter world? And I have... light coloring? :P
What kind of wand would you wish to get? I guess I imagined that mine would be fairly bendy. I don't know why that's something I assumed about myself before now, but yeah. The only core that I for some reason didn't think fit me was dragon heartstring. Again, I don't know what I based that on.
Are you pure, half-blooded or Muggle born? Half-blood, I believe. Witch for a mom, muggle for a dad.
Which day did you get into Pottermore? Um, day 13556667468? Hahah, I really don't know. In April.
What shape is your Patronus? Tiger. It's the only animal I've ever had really strong feelings of attachment toward in terms of species.
What does your boggart look like? The people I love listing every lie I've ever told, or every mistake I've ever made and saying that it has broken our bond and they will henceforth have nothing to do with me.
Would you rather be an Animagus or a Matamorphmagus? Metamorphmagus. Once I'm born a metamorphmagus, I can always become an Animagus, but not the other way around. Plus I've loved the idea of being able to change your appearance at will long before they appeared in the Harry Potter series.
If you were an Animagus, what animal would you be? Again, Tiger. Although that would probably make it very hard to get around unnoticed... But I really don't have any particular attachment or affiliation with another animal.

I'm so stoked for Pottermore! I've also been on such a Potter kick lately. The Pottermania comes and goes a lot, but when it's here, it's here for a while. :) I love seeing the fandom unite again, especially since people were so "doom-and-gloom" when DH pt. 2 was released ("ZOMG IT'S OVER!!!").
