Before You Can Be a Great
Wizard,
You Need to Find a Great Wand.
"Every Ollivander wand has a core of a powerful magical substance, Mr. Potter. We use unicorn hairs, phoenix tail feathers and the heartstrings of dragons.
No two Ollivander wands are the same, just as no two unicorns, dragons or phoenixes are quite the same. And of course, you will never get such good results with another wizard's wand." - Book 1
The wand always chooses the
wizard, never the other way around. There is an unspoken bond
between a wizard and his wand, it is the most powerful tool and weapon a
wizard has. Just ask Ron Weasley...
Here is a list of some of the
Harry Potter characters and their wands:
Harry - Eleven inches, Holly,
Nice and Supple, Phoenix Feather.
Ron - Charley's old wand, chipped and worn, Unicorn Hair.
John Potter - Eleven inches, Mahogany, Pliable, Strength in
Transfiguration.
Lily Potter - Ten and a quarter inches, Willow, Swishy, Perfect for
Charms.
Hagrid - Sixteen inches, Oak, Snapped in half when he was expelled now
part of his pink umbrella.
Lord Voldemort - Thirteen and a half inches, Yew, Very Powerful, Phoenix
Feather.

A wand is one of the
requirements for students attending Hogwarts. It is used in just
about every class (except maybe Herbology), there is even some use for
it in Potions. Always remember - Underage use of magic is
prohibited outside of Hogwarts! The Ministry of Magic is very
strict about this rule, I don't want anyone getting expelled because
they were overzealous with their magic wand.
You can find the perfect wand
for your wizarding skills online. Just click some of the links
below and on the side of the page to view a wide selection (one which
might rival Ollivanders!). Be sure to find the perfect wand, you
don't want to buy something this important in haste.
