      Hey quick question how about thestral animagus would they remain visible to everyone or only those who witnessed death? Afterall they're not a true thestral. But you do retain the abilities of your animal form.

      @HarryPotterTheory can a witch or wizard become more than one animal as an animagi? I ask because I have a duel patronous. One's a Dire-Wolf and the other is a rather large Peragrin Falcon. They usually appear together but sometimes only one will appear.

      ​@@chloeoeorine You wouldnt know what you would become on your first transformation. So the only thing that you can or could have done is to account for the fact that you might become sth with gills, and perform your first transformation with some water nearby. But that begs the question: if you turn into a freshwater fish and prepared to have freshwater nearby, that's great. But what if you turn into a saltwater fish? That could kill you.

    If Lupin went through the process to become an Animagus, what would he turn into? A wolf? His Werewolf form? That being asked, how would that affect his werewolf form? I feel like it would help him take control of the werewolf form.

      No, the animal is representative of your personality, not your interests. The one exception was Snapes patronus but that was through intense feelings of love towards Lily.
      His patronus and animagi form would probably turn into a dog - the most loyal creature there is. For his sheer unwavering loyalty towards Dumbledore and Harry.

    What would happen if a wizard performed the Animagus spell perfectly a second time after they'd already successfully performed it once?
    Would they gain a second form? If so, would they still keep the first? Would nothing change at all? Would they lose the animagus form altogether? Would they permanently become their animal form?

This part is about his ability to fly, just like Voldemort did in the 7 potters scene, and the “bat-like” reference is about his cloathes, that are also referred to as large and black, almost lake a bat.

He saw Peter Pettigrew's rat form with Weasley family on the newspaper which brought to Azkaban by a visitor and immediately recognized him. After that he realized Pettigrew was still alive, it was thanks to his strong urge to get revenge for what Peter did. After that he started to regain control on his mind and body, with his animagus form he escaped Azkaban without getting detected by dementors and swam.

      Assuming you're referring to animagus capability, but I'd imagine it's the same reason why a lot of magic from non-western cultures tends to be naturally somewhat more powerful. The western wizards tend to rely too much on their wands so that it almost becomes a crutch. Even wizards in the Americas tend to be more proficient in wandless magic than those of Europe owing to wands being harder to come by in Ilvermorny's earlier years and the influence of indigenous Native American wizards when the school was founded.

If one were to attempt the animagus process a second time could they have 2 animagus forms? If you can do it a second time why not a third or fourth? No idea how this would work but interesting idea.

    You missed one animagus, I think, for wasn't Aberforth Dumbledore an animagus who could turn into a goat?

Two or three questions I have, it says for the initial transformation a witch or wizard should find a safe place to hide their wand, for safe reclamation. In future transformations, if the caster's wand was tucked away in their clothing, would it also meld into their appearance? Second question, since the Marauders had each become an animagus to be with their friend, Remus Lupin, could he have also become one, or was he doomed to never be one due to his curse? Final question depending upon the answer of the last, if Remus Lupin could become an animagus, what do you suppose he might become? I guess I lied, I have a fourth question, I just thought up, if Remus had become an animagus do you think that skill would have helped him defeat Fenrir Greyback in a future battle?

    While suffering from a PTSD-induced form of multiple personality disorder, I took the patronus test three times on Pottermore for each personality fragment. My results were a raven, a wolf, and a tiger. Each personality fragment had its own name, characteristics, and preferences but were able to communicate with and were aware of each other within my mind, so I thought it might be fun to see if they ended up with different results. The dominant, but not core fragment was cunning and adaptive, and he received a raven. The original and most repressed fragment and the closest to my original personality received a wolf, and the most instinctual and aloof personality received a tiger.
    I took the test about a year and three months ago, and the result was unsurprising. My patronus upon becoming whole again was a wolf.

      Thats probably the reason so few have done it. I think you could drink if you're a bit careful without damaging it, and maybe live on soup for that time. Maybe you can speak with something in your mouth, or just use sign language. My biggest worry would be when you're going to sleep

    Does metamorphmagus have to be registered since they were born that way.

      I feel like it was put on their birth certificate or something or noted down on their file?
