Special Abilities There are some abilities that are incredibly rare in the wizarding world- so they will be rare here, too. To apply for one, simply post the short application found at the bottom of this post below. Animagi An Animangus is a witch or wizard who can transform him/herself into an animal at will. This is not a skill they are born with. It is difficult to learn, and is best learned from a professional. Animagi are strictly controlled by the ministry and it is illegal to become one without registering through the proper channels. Animagi Basics:
Metamorphmagi A metamorphmagus is a witch or a wizard born with the ability to change all or part of their appearance. This cannot be learned; it is an inherited (possibly genetic] trait. It is apparently quite rare. Metamorphmagi Basics:
Parselmouth A Parselmouth is a witch or wizard who understands and can speak Parseltongue, the language of snakes. It is commonly associated with Dark Wizards, though it is not necessarily an evil quality. It is very rare, and probably a combination of genetics and learning.
Seer A seer is a witch or wizard who has the ability to predict the future. True seers, born with the inner eye, are incredibly rare. However, a witch or wizard who wishes to undergo training may become very skilled at using magical means to predict the future. Seer Basics :
Occlumens Occulmency is the shielding of one’s mind against legilimency. Occulumens have the ability to compartmentalize their thoughts and emotions to prevent a legilimens from gaining access to them. This is a learned skill, but it is incredibly difficult to master. Years of study under the mentorship of a master Occlumens is required to become one. Occlumens Basics:
Legilimens Legilimency is the ability to extract thoughts, feelings, and memories from someone else’s mind. It’s also used to convey thoughts and emotions to another person. It is blocked by Occlumency. This is a learned skill, but it is incredibly difficult to master. Years of study under the mentorship of a master legilimens is required to become one. Legilimens Basics:
Apparation Apparation is a magical form of transportation that is sort of like teleportation. As it is very dangerous and risky, the ministry requires that one obtains a license before being allowed to apparate. You must be over the age of 17 to obtain such a license. Hogwarts offers a 12-week class for a nominal fee. Veela A Veela is a part magical/part human creature sort of like Sirens from Greek mythology. Their appearance and dance make them nearly irresistible to men.
Werewolf Werewolves are created by other wolves after being bitten during a full moon. Ordinarily they look like regular folk, but every full moon they transform into a near wolf. They can be distinguished from regular wolves by the following little characteristics: pupils of the eyes, snout shape, and tufted tail. During such transformation, they lose themselves in their wolfish instincts. If alone with animals, they may even resort to attacking themselves. Mercifully, Wolfsbane potion (taken correctly) can help with the mental part of the transformation, allowing victims to keep control of their minds. If bitten by a transformed werewolf outside of the full moon, the person may not fully become werewolf, and may simply develop some wolf-like characteristics.
The Application Just copy paste the code and post below!
