ABILITIES CLAIM
This is a list of potential special abilities your character may have, but remember you may only have one of these special abilities - a werewolf seer with veela blood running though their veins is hardly believable. If you want to more than one, make it believable and convince us that you can handle both without turning Mary-Sue/Gary-Stu.
Every member may have one special ability for every three characters they have - but if a canon character has a special ability in the books, you will get this automatically, regardless of your other characters.
ANIMAGI TRANSFORMATION
- An Animagus is a witch or wizard who can turn into a particular animal at will.
- All Animagi must register at the Ministry; it is illegal to obtain this ability without registering.
- To apply to be an animagus you must be at least fifth year - consider starting with training, rather than the full ability.
- James Potter (illegal)
- Sirius Black (illegal)
- (Peter Pettigrew - illegal)
- Adults that are Animagi (0/3 legal)
METAMORPHMAGI
- A Metamorphmagus is a witch or wizard born with the innate ability to change some or all of their appearance at will.
- The talent can not be acquired; you must be born with it.
- Not every metamorphmagus will have perfect control of their ability.
SEERS
- A Seer is a witch or wizard with the clairvoyany ability to predict future events.
- This ability may be stronger in some than others.
- The predictions given through this ability can sometimes be self-fulfilling prophecies, not all of which come true.
Adult Seers (0/3)
LEGILIMENCY
- Legilimency is the magical skill of extracting feelings and memories from another person's mind.
- It also allows one to convey visions or memories to another person, whether real or imaginary.
- A witch or wizard possessing this skill is called a Legilimens and can; detect lies and deceit in another person, witness memories in another person's past, or 'plant' false visions in another's mind.
OCCLUMENCY
- Occlumency is tehe counter-skill to Legilimency.
- The user is known as an Occlumens
- The user can compartmentalize their own emotions, or prevent a Legilimens from discovering thoughts or memories which contradict one's spoken words or actons.
- An advanced form of Occlumency is planting false temporary memories inside their own head while blocking all other true memories.
PARSELMOUTH
- A witch or wizard who can speak to snakes.
- This is passed down through genetics and can not be learnt.
- It is extremely rare!
VEELA
- Veela are extremely beautiful, making them highly attractive to others even when the person may not usually be attracted to them.
- Veela's are more commonly female, but the weaker the bloodline, the higher the chance of male veela.
- Veela generally remain looking youthful and beautiful until they die.
HALF-GIANTS
- We only accept half-giants, not full giants.
- They are generally at least eight foot tall, but can grow up to twelve foot.
- They have a resistance to stunning spells unless ten or more are used on them.
WEREWOLVES
- Werewolves transform with the fullmoon
- They are highly dangerous in their wolf form and resistant to stunning spells.
- You must be bitten to become a werewolf, or have two werewolf parents.
- Not ever werewolf child will gain access to Hogwarts!
Adult Werewolves (0/5)
VAMPIRE
- Vampires are changed through a blood ritual that is enforced on their death.
- Require blood for survival but do not need to kill.
- Age gives them some resistance to sunlight.
