On RON. You mention he never complains about using Wormtails wand and the other two struggling with the wands they got in the Deathly Hallows. Ron was the only one of those three to ever have to make another persons wand work for years because he had a hand me down wand. On that note, knowing how wands work his parents kinda screwed him there. They give him a hand me down wand where he will be unable to ever do his best at school…..not cool. He got lucky because they won some money in Azkaban and finally got his own (was there any noticeable change in his skill getting his own wand or did JK forget). Some might argue they just didn’t have the money, but they had the money to buy presents for children who got prefect and head boy etc. They get Ron a present for being a prefect and an expensive one being a broom. Percy was a prefect in the first book so following tradition (seeing he was not the first child or first successful child so this was tradition) so they elected to get Percy a present over setting up Ron for his schooling career with the most important item. So was Ron always not that great or did he start with both hands behind his back with having a hand-me-down wand and being the youngest boy? Plot holes or intentional poor parenting choices?
Neville also used a "hand me down" wand and both Ron and Neville had issues with their spells until they received wands that had chosen them. Neville I think had an even harder time with spells until he got his new wand. And Neville's gran had even less need to deprive him of his own wand (then Neville's gran did not have much respect for Neville's abilities until after the fight in the Department of Mysteries) than the Weasleys did Ron.
What if you find a wand, simply lost, and start using it. Could the wand's allegiance build up as it is used? For example, let's assume that Dumbledore's wand was lost in the grass where it fell. Dumbledore would have fallen near the wand soon after, but it is entirely possible that the grass, especially if it fell near the building. The following year the wand could be found by a student, and the student, not knowing who the wand belonged to starts using it. If that student was strong, perhaps the wand might like him or her.
As I see it, there are three outcomes for using the wand allied with another: The spell works, but is muted in intensity, depending upon the power of the wizard or witch - The spell rebounds and plugs the used of the odd wand. This may depend on the shaft, but especially the core. Unicorn hair is especially hard to turn from the sorcerer it selects. The power of a phoenix feather core is also tight to its select - The wand will self-destruct, and its magic seriously muted, or incinerated in the exposure. See in the movie what happened when Hermione tried to use Harry’s holly/phoenix wand. Unless a wand fully accepts its new master, it may work, but at best, not to its full potential. It may rebound the spell, or break in the trying.
I wonder if that would fall under the inheritance law since Morphin was his uncle, and I don't remember it being said that Tom killed his uncle. I feel like he was already dead, because Tom might want to encourage his uncle to join his cause, unless he was unhappy with the state of the Gaunt family.
@@trendloe 15-year-old Tom framed his uncle Morphin for the murder of his Riddle grandparents and Tom Riddle senior using Uncle Morphin Haunt’s want islandplacing a memory spell on him to make him think he (Morphin) was the one that killed them all. That is also when Tom Riddle stole the ring he would then turn in to a Horcrux.
I would think that a simple theft of the wand wouldn't suffice in regard to allegiance... If it were that simple, then the rules governing allegiance wouldn't exist. Stealing the wand while the owner is unaware isn't a 'fair' (fair being subjective here) duel. Snatching a wand from your opponents hand in a scuffle of fisticuffs, the owner willingly handing the wand over, Expelliarmus... Some may take priority over other methods, Expelliarmus being one of the few absolute "wins" in this case.
I would argue that a big bulky man ripping the wand out of a little housewife's Hand isn't as fair as him having to sneak it out. She cannot wrestle him down, but she can be sneaky too. And he could be watchfull too. Beeing Alert and cautious is Way more universal and wilfull than just beeing bodily capable by luck of birth.
harry had his wand taken at the world cup and tom took it from him in the chambers harry had it blown up win Hamine used it to kill Nigin he also had it taken in Malfoy manner how did he get it back and in the movie harry snaped the elder wand and threw it over bord the bridge i did not think the elder wand could not be broken or snaped if harry gave it back to Dumbledore dose harry still have the elder wand power because it was not ever toking from harry but he just pleased it in the Toom
His wand was imbued with an anti-Voldemort power absorbed when they share priori incantaten. It regurgitated that power back at Voldemort thus destroying Lucius wand

Brilliant as usual l
I like your site but, I don't like how much you repeat yourself.
"Crucial role"

Ive always wondered why some wands changed their allegiance...thank you for this video
Harry’s wand broke and he used the elder wand to repair his wand it did a lot of things but it did nothing in the final battle
I am surprised that more witches and wizards in the HP world did not try to make their own wands.
I wish they would explain the contact of Harry's wand during the motorcycle ride with Hagrid against Voldemort in the air when Harrg was unconcious.
Harry also fixed his wand with the elder wand a task that is otherwise impossible
Voldemort used Morphin’s wand to kill his father and grandparents

I feel like he was already dead, because Tom might want to encourage his uncle to join his cause, unless he was unhappy with the state of the Gaunt family.

How does one make a wand ?
Grafting the core, allowing the wood to grow around it ... I have no idea.

The origami casting ofgrigrindiwalealdwas by one of the most beloved torsos a not just the current gnration
harry had his wand taken at the world cup and tom took it from him in the chambers harry had it blown up win Hamine used it to kill Nigin he also had it taken in Malfoy manner how did he get it back and in the movie harry snaped the elder wand and threw it over bord the bridge i did not think the elder wand could not be broken or snaped if harry gave it back to Dumbledore dose harry still have the elder wand power because it was not ever toking from harry but he just pleased it in the Toom
11:30 If the wand is returned voluntarily then I imagine it would also return the allegiance.
Does anyone know who the voiceover actor for this is? He sounds so great sort of like Jim Dale. I’d love to listen to more of his narration
I thought he sounds like Stepen Fry, a favorite of JKR.
could i turn my feet into a wand? asking for a friend
What if you made your own wand?
How did harry potter destroy Lucius malfoy ward
His wand was imbued with an anti-Voldemort power absorbed when they share priori incantaten. It regurgitated that power back at Voldemort thus destroying Lucius wand
