Elder Wand: "I'm strong because you are, not because you need me to be."
I am the catalyst you are the source.
🤦♂️ beta
J.K Rowling herself confirmed it
Then it literally contradicts its very "purpose".
Whoever owns it should be granted an immerse power no matter how "weak" that wizard is.
So, whoever wrote this rule :
He/she doesn't have a common sense
I have heard somewhere the theory that the Elder Wand already changed its allegiance to Dumbledore during the duel where Ariana died. Grindelwald had it there already, Ariana defeated Grindelwald and Dumbledore was the one who casted the curse that unintentionally killed her so the Elder Wand turned its allegiance to him there and then. And Dumbledore avoided to face Grindelwald for so long because he feared to find out that the Elder Wand was already his which would confirm his greatest fear that he indeed was the one who had casted the deadly curse that killed Ariana.
Wow that is a good theory
Interesting theory, but in Chapter 35, "King's Cross", of "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows" Dumbledore tells Harry that he had heard tell that Grindelwald had "procured a wand of immense power" in the years after he had known him but before their legendary duel. During the two months that Dumbledore & Grindelwald were friends, neither of them knew the location of any of the three Hallows, including the Elder Wand. Grindelwald tracked down Gregorivich and stole the wand after leaving Godric's Hollow.
@@futuresonex I’m pretty sure I remember but yeas I still think it’s a interesting theory
@@Vanilla_Icecream1231 I had just finished listening to "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows" on audiobook less than an hour before seeing your comment. So the quote was still fresh on my mind. 😁
@@futuresonex lol nice I’m currently rereading HBP it’s been year since I read the books
"Why does it betray it's owners"
Hmm because Death enjoys company boss
I always envision death not putting much thought on how the wand would kill the elder brother when he asked for the wand, since many would seek such a powerful artifact. Like “I can’t take full credit for this kill, humans just crave power that much.”
@@immortalstar0138 i think it is as simple as it knew (or suspected) these gifts would result in their downfall, I personally LOVE the touch of the humble man greating death "as an old friend", perfect balance, usually when you run from something, you bump into it face first, too busy looking behind you and all that. A wand of great power could make one have a simple life, or be a magnet for misery.
@@Captainkebbles1392 interesting. Read my comments. Think we could have a great public chat.
Power corrupts.
The gift of power magnifies your unworthiness. Paradoxically, Harry proved his worthiness by destroying it. He did what Frodo Baggins couln't do (cough, plagiarism, cough).
@@similaritiesendhere no one is immune to the ring tho, Baggins was as close as one gets but I enjoy the cross fiction roasting haha
Your theory works well. We also have to remember that Unicorns and Thestrals are somewhat opposites. If Unicorn Hair wands are the most faithful and loyal (according to canon), Thestral hair would make a very disloyal wand. However, we should remember that Thestral can not be seen -even by Wizards -who have not witnessed/understood death. This quirk would make it quite powerful.
Moreover, the elder wand is similar to Voldemort's wand. Yew wood is said to toxic and poisonous: "yew (Taxus cuspidata) is known to be one of the most poisonous woody plants in the world, with all components of the tree, excepting the fleshy red part of the berry containing lethal amounts of taxine, a toxic alkaloid found in the yew."
When combined with a Phoenix feather, you get the best of both worlds. You get the poisonous nature of Yew, as well as the eternal (Healing) life of the Phoenix. That is why Voldy could heal Pettigrew's wounds so easily, and cast the Killing course with the same ease.
Nice breakdown of your wand theory and I buy it ..sounds very well thought out and well presented..good job my friend best wishes to you.
The Elder Wand is extremely fickle and finnicky and it's allegiance not easily won. Only a wizard or Sorcerer of great power can wield
I sometimes believe that it searches for more skill and power. Something that always Stood out to me is that dumbledore said he had more skill than grindelwald. Perhaps the wand sensed this, and began to fail him, or diminish in power, when D and G dueled.
(Harry snaps elder wand in half)
Elder wand: “I TRUSTED YOU!”
If that’s the case, in the book when Harry returned the wand to Dumbledores grave in the hope that when he died, no one would be able to become the true owner, does that mean that even after Harry dies the wand can still choose another owner?
High probability that’s the case
See, this why I really like what the movie 🎥 did SO much better when Harry BROKE it in HALF; too many things could go wrong with leaving it in Dumbledore’s grave. First, Harry might not die a natural death (we hope so, but it might not happen), especially cause he planned on being an Auror, a dark wizard CATCHER. And secondly, with what you just pointed out. Just WAY too many plot holes with leaving it in Dumbledore’s grave, I think 💭. I WOULD have liked to see the Elder Wand repairing Harry’s Phoenix wand, though, like what happened in the book 📖 in the movie 🎥 before Harry broke it in half!! 😉
@@AHufflepuffAndASwiftie exactly I would’ve liked to have seen a compromise between the movie and book where we see Harry repair his wand and then possibly destroy it. If I lived in the wizarding world I would look for the hallows not to rule the world but to study them and try to apply their magical abilities into new spells and make my wand more powerful while also keeping it’s loyalty
@@xoler2167 Ooh!! That’s a great 👍🏻 idea. I’ll go with you!! Haha 😂
@@AHufflepuffAndASwiftie or if I were living in the 1920s when Grindelwald was around, if you ask me, I think he has some good points so I’d consider joining him. Until one day I wake up and see him being played by someone other than Johnny Depp then I’d be like “nope I’m out” 😂
Dude think about that! Dumbledoor’s natural power regardless of a wand is so great that the elder wand sensed it and said “Imma head out”. 😂😂😂
I agree with this but something important to note is that Dumbledore was only challenged in the duel in the ministry of magic in the movie because in the books he easily won and it was voldemort trying to stand his ground against the most powerful wizard of the age
Justice for Johnny... only one Grindelwald
There should be a petition in rehiring Depp as Grindelwald
Jamie Campbell Bower playing Grindelwald again would be neat.
@@isaackim7675 There have been numerous, including one for him as Jack Sparrow with a million plus signatures and Disney is moving forward without him :(
@@tylerwheeler7033 Then only one thing will get Disney's attention and that is to boycott the movie.
This situation he's in isn't fair and especially when it's audio of her belittling and threatening him😪. She should be fired as well from her projects
Consider this. What if the elder wand lies outside wand lore? What if the elder wand shows loyalty to those who possess Peverall blood? The wand may have betrayed Grindelwald because Dumbledore may be more closely related to the Peverell family than Grindelwald. If the elder wand is a family heirloom and shows more loyalty to someone who possesses more family blood, then maybe it never bonded to Voldemort because he had so very little of his soul left. In addition Harry possessed two other deathly hallows which are also inheritances from the Peverell family. This would mark him and prove to the wand that he has a stronger blood bond to the magical item and therefore the wand would obey Harry over Voldemort
Antioch was murdered in his sleep though. So if that was the case wouldnt have only worked for his brothers?
@@kaimagnus5760 I presume the person who killed Antioch stole the wand. The wand may have worked well enough for a ruthless wizard but when given a choice will side with a family member.
@@kaimagnus5760 Yes, he was murdered. But not defeated. Make of that what you will.
Grindelwald was master of the Elder Wand until his final duel with Dumbledore
Somehow despite the fact Grindelwald was supposed to be invincible with the Elder Wand, Dumbledore won
Something must have happened that changed its allegiance before or during the duel
The Secrets of Dumbledore ending (without giving spoilers) may actually give a clue on that
For the Elder Wand May change alliegance as simple as having itself stolen like how Grindelwald stolen it from Gregorvitch as a young man
Or how Draco Malfoy unknowingly won alliegeance as simply disarming Dumbledore, even though he wasn’t trying to fight Draco
Or Harry winning alliegance from taking Draco’s Wand at duel of Malfoy Manor even though the Elder Wand wasn’t present at the fight
It’s loyalty is fickle so an incident like that may have Grindelwald lost the Wand’s loyalty to him
From what we know… Draco was the first person to fully win the loyalty besides Dumbledore. So DD either won the duel because Grindelwald stole the Elder wand, Grindelwald intentionally lost perhaps seeing that Albus was willing to fight to the death, Or he commanded the wand to let skill decide the outcome
I think that the reason why no one can create another wand like the Elder Wand, is that Antioch cursed the combination in wand lore, making it impossible to create more. It would an incredible difficult curse to cast but we know that Elder Wand can do extraordinary things and do things that other wands couldn't do (like repair Harry's wand). And seeing the nature of the wand, it isn't really something it wouldn't do.
I honestly have had the same thought, who's to say there isn't a spell that does that, I mean Dumbledore discovered the uses for Dragons Blood all 12
I heard the wand wasn't all that powerfull when Antioch created it. It may have been a little more powerful than most wands, but it wasn't extrodinary. Antioch was just a very skilled wizard. The reason the wand is so powerful because it has so many owners and it learns the magic from all their previous owners. So over so many years it learned from all of it's masters making it more powerful. All wands a re actually capable of this. Wands are almost like sentient beings and can learn magic, but most wands don't get passed from wizard to wizard but are buried with their original owner.
i very doubt you could curse the act of making a wand, MAYBE a location you can make wands, like how Tom cursed the defense against the dark arts teachers (most likely cursed the room they teach in or the teachers office)
The best explanation of the Elder Wand I've heard from all the channels on UA-cam....Great Stuff 👏.
Another reason is the characteristic trait of Accepting Death, those who know and understand that death is part of nature and embraces it. Not wanting to die but when it come for u, u won't try to avoid it at all cost like Voldemort. In my theory, the Deathly Hallows were made by Death, Dumbledore knew 'A LOT' but he didn't know everything. To bridge between science and myth. Death didn't bestow the wand it's power, he crafted it, so science would b that and myth is the maker. With Harry forsaking the wand in the books (braking in the movie), The Death Stick says to itself "I choose wrong". Fantastic Beast 3 is in July 2022, I was hoping for this fall, now we gotta wait longer. New videos of Interview with the Vampire Dean. R u also gonna bring in the film Queen of the Damned there? Some may have not like it cause it wasn't like in the book, but I did and the music.
Before the video start.. I wanna guess: It's because it's collecting souls for Death.. lol.. I always looked at that wand as being demonic.
Makes me wanna see wand that would truly be demonic which is a wand with a core from a Dementor.
Like the one ring.... It wants to get back to its Maker
I would want to experiment making new kinds of more powerful wands lol
"A genius piece of science from Antioch Peverell"
What a quote and what a video. Thanks, Dean! Always love your content!
*typo
If the wands are able to think for themselves, I think that the Elder Wand knows the powers that it has and that it is probably one if not the most powerful wand there is. So my theory is that the Elder Wand knows that in the wrong hands it could be very dangerous. Another theory is that the Elder Wand only lets its owner to be used for good and it must feel that it’s owner it drunk in power.
I just don't like how Harry gains the Elder Wand's allegiance in the story. Why would the Elder Wand care if someone took a completely different wand from its owner? I mean, he didn't even take it by magic. He just grabbed it and pulled it out of Draco's hand. That's not the mark of a powerful wizard. Any muggle could've done it.
If I were writing/rewriting the "Half-Blood Prince" I would have Draco pick up the Elder Wand after Dumbledore's death just before leaving the Astronomy Tower. I'd just have him pick it up, and then have Harry remove the wand from Draco during his escape from Hogwarts, during the "Flight of the Prince". It needn't be a big duel or a big scene at all, just have Harry take it or knock it from Draco's hand before he is able to escape with it. That's it. That's all. Even a quick "expelliarmus", while Harry is running and chasing Snape & Draco, would do it. At that point, no one knew that it was the Elder Wand, the so-called "Death Stick" and "Wand of Destiny". It was just Dumbledore's wand, and Harry would've seen to it that the wand was buried with Dumbledore just as it was in the book & movie. After that, events could've played out exactly as they did with no further changes.
Harry is certainly a more powerful wizard than Draco Malfoy. There's no question about that, but having the Elder Wand switch its allegiance to him simply because Harry managed to disarm Draco by ripping his wand -- a completely different wand -- out of his hand while the Elder Wand was still in Dumbledore's tomb was one of the very few not so well thought out aspects of the "Harry Potter" story, in my opinion anyway.
I dont know if its cannon, but it almost makes sense that each Peveril Brother created their own Deathly Hollow. Take the Invisibility Cloak for example. Harry's Cloak of Invisibility isnt the only one out there. But it is the only one who's enchantment is permanent. Other Cloaks lose their ability over time but Harry's has been passed down for hundreds of years without losing strength.
So I think all three of the brothers made their respective Hallows via a lost method they discovered. Thus why their artifacts are to powerful and unique.
Makes alot more sense than Death being an actual entity who created them . I
I believe the Peverell brothers did create the Hallows. It proves the theory more true as Dumbledore also created his own inventions. It is just that the 3 artifacts gained such powerful reputation that they are known as the Deathly Hallows. The reason why I think Death is used here is to express that the Hallows causes death or evades death in a certain way. The Elder Wand causes death, Resurrection stone brings back the dead and Invisibility cloak protects you from it. Either way I dont think these 3 artifacts was called Deathly Hallows firstly. They might of been the Peverell projects at first but when each died then it was known as the Deathly Hallows because of its reputation. The reason why I believe it was created was because of the Resurrection stone. Its not the first time a magical stone was made and the Invisibility cloak too. The Elder Wand I would of believed was something of Death but then again its a enchanted wand created to be the most powerful.
I personally like the idea of Death being the one who made them
The reason that the Elder wand changes eliegence has never been described in such a way before. This theory makes the most amount of sense compared to any other theory out there.
The elder wand is a gold digger haha
Other woods like Holly have been considering 'magical' in various folklores.
It's a cross between mjolnir and stormbreaker
Mjolnir : worthy
Stormbreaker : mental and physical strength
Yet can be snapped like a twig just as easily as any of wand.
Here I am watching a video about a wand that has such a bloody past and then I get an ad for life insurance. I feel threatened...
Can you go into depth about the other Deathly Hallows next? Like what is the Resurrection Stone made of and why has the Invisiblity Cloak enchantment lasted so long. Can't wait for your next upload!
I want to know what happens to the Order and Death Eaters after the war. I find it hard to believe that there would be no more opportunist dark wizards to ever rise up again. Or likewise, I also find it hard to believe that the order would not have kept certain protections in place in case of another uprising.
Dark Wizards will always rise. Malfoy was pardoned by the Order and Ministry but the rest I think went into hiding or got captured. Dark wizards will always rise up, Emeric the evil, Grindelwald, Voldemort..They all took time to rise. So to be honest there will be a dark wizard after Voldemort with another backstory of his own and remember the Elder Wand according to the book was never broken. So it leaves story open for the next dark wizard to try and claim it or go on a different rampage. I do not know if Delphini is canon but to answer your question. Yes I think there are safety protocols but you can't stop a dark wizard.
This gives the scene where Harry kills himself to Voldemort so much more strategical reasoning because that was the only way to avoid a duel where even tho he would get the wand back Voldemort would still have horcruxs so by could instantly duel Harry again and take that wand back by literally snatching it off him and he would then be unstoppable
Hay what do you think a wand of Elder and unicorn would be like
Like an old horse
Younger
Trash... Death himself powered the wand🤷
when I took the wand test I got the elder wand which I wasn't expecting, the elder wand should be used used to experiment making new spells and potions etc and maybe we can experiment making more new powerful wands with Thunderbird, zouwu, ancromantula, kelpie ,occamy etc wand cores and maybe try out using magical wood like that whooping Willow tree outside Hogwarts or mandrake plant cuz they're very wooden , would love to experiment with those and more , probably end up creating a more stronger wand than elder wand
It’s possible the Elder Wand became the most powerful wand by being in the possession of many wizards. Wands don’t usually change allegiances on a whim with the Elder Wand being the exception.
That is actually one of the reasons it's powerful according to the Dumbledore.
The elder wand doesn't look like how it does in the movies. It actually has a smooth unadorned shaft and a handle that formes two conjoined spheres.
I think it looks cooler in the movies
so what you are saying is its a penis?
"The wand chooses the wizard" I think the wand chooses to be with the more powerful of the two wizards fighting over it because it wants to learn from that wizard and have that wizard learn from it
Your videos are always so well thought out and clearly explained. Thank you.
Perhaps the wand was influenced by Death itself, in recompense for the souls it was denied. The wand draws powerful wizards in an compels them perform murderous acts to obtain it, hence supplying Death with the craved souls. The Elder Wand also had a similar temperament to that of the The One Ring.
Interesting. Death always has yhe last laugh.
It makes me so happy to know you're doing Anne Rice's books considering she died this month. I love all your Harry Potter videos you do great work.
The wand choose the wizard according to the plot that good will always triumph over evil. Sure we can trace it to other mythologies, but the fact remains that the elder wand is meant to be used for good until death takes the user for another purpose of the wand to be used to preserve good.
This is the first time someone focused on the magic of the wood. I always assumed that all wand wood was magical as those are the trees you can find those magical creatures but assuming you are right and it’s the only magical wood. This is something I have not heard before. I’d say this is your best video to date for me
I really like this theory it’s almost like a fusion of wand lore and Thor’s hammer enchantment detecting “worthiness”. I know that’s very different from just wanting power but thinking of the elder wand as a quantum computer or something that turns it’s power output up and down as it looks for the right person to wield it is very cool.
Funny, the picture of the post looks like why WB betrayed Johnny depp 😡
I think all the hallows, the veil arch under the ministry, and the pensieve were all created by the same wizard in his search to resurrect a lost loved one. I think he either gave up and walked though his final invention The Veil or he didn’t know the veil would kill him when he walked through it. I feel like there’s a huge story there
I disagree! The deathly hallows was given as a reward to TRICK the three brothers into thinking they cheated death so that Death can gain their souls another way. The elder wand although powerful is not dependent on the qualities a certain person holds, but holds true to its purpose, to trick the possessor into thinking they can overcome death.
I love how in the films the elder wand looks like a finger of death.
It was interesting and I enjoyed the fifth-year of Dudley don't know why it took them this long to have him join Harry on his side but at least he's now on it
I think one important trait the wand examines in its owner is how the witch or wizard accepts death. That's why Harry is the true master of the Elder Wand. He fully accepted his own mortality. He was also quite powerful in his own right.
So if Grindelwald took the wand from Gregorivitch by stealing it, which is not a direct win, why did the wand ever truly answer to Grindelwald? Does this mean Dumbledore had to disarm Gregorivitch at some point to gain the wand’s loyalty?
No, based on this theory the wand sensed that Grindelwald was more powerful than Gregorovitch and switched it's allegiance to Grindelwald
When you think about it the Elder Wand's secondary nickname "the unbeatable wand" is actually a misnomer because it is constantly being beaten and switching hands to whoever is most powerful.
Glad to see you back
Your channel is always a delight!! =]
You are mistaken about real life legends about magical woods. Elder isn't the only magical wood; Yew, Rowan, Mountain Ash, Juniper, and Witch Hazel all are magical. Additionally if you look at Greco-Roman and Celtic Mythology other woods/trees are special as well.
Oak is another
I wonder if ironwood is any good
I believe the reason it betrays the owners is due to the lack of Peverell blood although Dumbledore seems the exception since he kept it's loyalty up to his death.
If I could _only_ pick one question for JK to answer, it would be, how is a horcrux made? 🤔
Does she HAVE to tell? If so I’d ask if hogwarts is real.
She's kinda already answered that. She said once that it requires "Unspeakable" Dark Magic. And that only the Cruelist and most evil Dark Wizards would even try to make one.
So I'd say the method is really F-ed up to the point of being worse than what ever you're immagining.
@@kaimagnus5760 But where's the incantation she promised to reveal in the Encyclopedia which was never finished because of stupid Pottermore?
@@BlackangelKatakuri The incantation is probably *Eyes roll in back of head as Eldrich speech echos in the room making everyone's ears bleed*
FANTASTIC breakdown!
Excellent analysis! Perfectly stated.
We need a Dudley Dursely Folklore channel lol
I find that a Wand switching owner just by disarming the owner a bit cheap. Or is it only some Wands do that?
With so many battles a wizard will face in his career, the wizard will surely be disarmed frequently.
Dracos wand did this
Not all wands lol. Only disloyal ones
I dont think just getting disarmed on its own is enough. I think one has to soundly defeat their opponent, to the point where even the opponent knows they've lost/Are losing, then disarm them. The accepten6ce of defeat could be a trigger for a wand to change loyalty if its then taken by the winner.
I also dont think just because it accepts a new owner means it wont accept its original one anymore. But would rebel if used against the previous victor again.
See this is why I think wand less magic needs to be made more of a priority
Because they kept using it as a back scratcher
It's great to have you back!!! Great video it come back with...
I love this explanation, it covers so many things
hears no dudly: "AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH, *dies* "
I think your theory holds up. However we can only really know if that’s the case once we actually see dumbledore go against grindelwald
Good video, as always.

My 2 top choices for playing Grindelwald in Fantastic Beasts 3 onwards would’ve been:
1. Colin Farrell (they could’ve had it where the Human Transfiguration spell eventually became permanent);
2. James Arnold Taylor (he is a voice double for Johnny Depp).
You just fixed everything.. I never liked the movies because they didn't add up. This one piece of information makes everything else add up. Cheers mate.
Useless Wand rather than Elder Wand.
If your theory is true, then
Anytime the owner is fighting someone less power than the owner it works but isn’t needed because the opponent is less power. So Useless , as a regular wand would be enough for the owner to win .
When you need it is when you dual against an equal, for an advantage,
Or an opponent more power than the owner, allowing the owner to level up and win.
But in both cases it withdraws it’s power, thus making the Wand Useless.
Excellent, explanation. I agree with you. You had to prove yourself to the wand so it would do your bidding. Best, explanation for this incredible wand. It’s truly the only powerful wand in the world. I love how you you explained dumbledore and toms duel. The headmaster had to use his own knowledge. Which gave him the allegiance of the most deadliest wand to ever be created. Also thanks for the info on the wood. I never knew it had magical properties. Take care.
Absolutely incredible video 🙌🏽. Easily one of my favorites from this channel
always just figured its just in its nature disloyal, and while powerful probably not actually unbeatable, just amplifying your own skill more than a traditional wand, and since powerful wizards seek it its natural that they probably were near unbeatable even ifs not some set rule that nobody could be more powerful
I wish this videos had a bit of a higher volume
nice theory but there is one flaw.What is the meaning of being powerful in Harry Potter lore
Getting to be either revered or feared as in the case of Dumbledore and Voldemort. Both were said to be powerful for there times look at what both men accomplished with there powers Voldemort caused two great wars.
@@solisprime2669 if i remember clearly . Snape once told somebody must have really powerful powers to make a patronus like the one Harry Potter did to save sirius. So what i mean is there is no rational way to tell if somebody is more powerful. My theory is to be chosen by the elder wand is to accept death like an old friend . And this is why harry was the true master of the elder wand. He sacrifces himself and i m pretty sure Antioch Peverell did the same this is why they are for me the true owners of elder wand
FINALLY another wand video!!!
Ok, if you are going to say that the elder wand was made by an exceptional wand maker, then you also need to explain the creation of the stone and the cloak. because you need to complete the tale and not leaving it half assed and only 1/3 complete.
Is there a reason why wizards choose certain methods of transportation over the others, for example port key, brooms, apparating, flu network, flying cars, night bus and trains? Is one method better than the rest?
Glad to see yer back at it boss. Make sure you back up the new computer stuff this time.
Ollivander always said that the one that chooses the wizard maybe the other one saw a better master in Dumbledore than Grindelwald
Elder wand is choosi like me when I buy books nothing seems good enough.
Ordinary wands are like puppies finds an owner and aims to please VS Elder Wand is a cat...
The Elder wand was crafted by death himself and it’s very design was intended to lead to its owners downfall just as the other deathly hallows were..
That is quite the theory 🤔
I like that idea 😊
Wand Law...
The Wand Choses the Wizard. Not the other way round.
Now I'm strongly reminded of the One Ring. J.R.R and J.K did a wonderful job creating the worlds
Great video
The power of friendship is greater than the Elder Wand. Cliches are even more powerful than that.
Thumbnail got me thinking of Johnny Depp as Virgil
10:32 = The Elder wand's probably cursing to death right now, when his chosen owner broke it personally...
Elder wood and Unicorn hair would also be a more powerfull wand (but not as powerful as the elder wand), both the core and the wood cancle out eachothers unpleasentries. (Unicorn hair for elderwoods ficklness, elderwood for unicorn hairs lack of power)
I think it has a lot to do with trust and faith harry always believed In the wand whereas the dark Lord did not have he clearly states The wand did not create extraordinary power he did so therefor he didn't have faith or trust in the wand so the wand did not have faith or trust in him and it changed sides to the one who would always have faith in it and trust in it as it would in its true master the master that that would respect it and have full trust in it basically the wizard that was loyal to it so therefore it could be loyal to the wizard That's my thought and theory
It changes allegiance so often because it's true owner is Death, so it's trying to get back into Death's hand again. It's like the Harry Potter equivalent of Sauron's ring. Yes, anyone can use it, but in the end it seeks it's actual master and will betray any who aren't just that. It's actial master. The ring's master is Sauron. The Elder Wand's master is Death. Both are seeking their rightful owner.
Outstanding!
Another Theory: The Elder Wand never belongs to Dumbledore, Snape, Draco or harry because when Grindelwald stole the wand to gregorovith, Grindelwald never disarmed or kill gregorovith so the true master of the wand is Voldemort because he kill gregorovith
I am strongly reminded of the one Ring in lord of the rings with the diffrence that it's loyalty lies with Sauron.
Wand of Elder, never prosper. Remember?
The Elder knew that it truly belonged to "the Master of Death." A person that had no yet been born. So it owed no allegiance to the Pretenders that came before that person.
I paused at a minute in because I think in order for it to not betray you, you would have to own all 3 deathly hallows, because if you think about it both Harry and Albus at one point owned all 3 and the elder wand never betrayed either of them
glad you mentioned elder wood
Hey I really enjoy your videos. I was always a huge HP fan and I read the books 1-2 a year. But there is one thing that always bothered me and maybe you have an answer or at least a theory :)
How did Dobby intercept Harry's letter in the COS. IT must have been very difficult to do. I mean how did he know which owls to intercept and how did no one in the Malfoy family notice?
Maybe you can shed some light on this.
Did you never do a "Who would be the more powerful wizard: Gandalf or Dumbledore"?
What about the ash tree? Or the hazel? Elder was far from the only magical wood, especially in England
Pretty elaborate head cannon
Grindelwald sad that Credence is the only entity alive that can kill Albus Dumbledore so he knew from the begining that Dumbledore is more Powerfull than him the wand sense it and betrayed Grindelwald.
I don't think Grindelwald and Dumbledore are going to fight. Newt Scamander will have to fight Grindelwald. Maybe Dumbledore will have to kill Creedence but Creedence will most likely end himself. It's Newt's series, Fantastic Beasts, he is the one to defeat Grindelwald.
