hh_clubs | The Animagus Club

As the Animagus Board is slowly making progress working its way through the current applications, I think it's time to announce a new rule:

Before you apply to become an animagus, you have to buy the first 5 books of the Standard Book of Spells Series at hh_diagon.

Why? Well, becoming an animagus is *difficult*. Not just any first year student can become one. The books symbolize the years you spend at Hogwarts and having 5 of them means you're a 5th year student (in this club) and able to become an animagus.

So, off you go, earn knuts, buy the books, then apply!

Please fill out the application using the code below and add at the end =)

Please comment below (in screened comments) with your application, and we will get back to you within a few days. Please be detailed in your application. Same goes for this one as the one for

platform_934: explain your answers. We have millions of animals to pick from, not just 4 houses, so help us out a little by giving a detailed application. Thank you!

What are your favorite hobbies and extracurricular activities?
Reading is my ultimate favorite activity. I can't stand going a day without reading at least a little bit of a book. I also like to watch a lot of movies, good ones, not just fluffy ones. Although fluff can be good sometimes. I don't really play any sports because they don't leave me enough time to be alone and read and such. I'm not much of a team player. I do, however, enjoy tae-kwon-do. I'm nearly a black belt. I am the student coordinator and founder of my school's chapter of Amnesty International, so I spend a lot of my time planning things for the group, like protests and vigils and fund raisers. It's a wonderful club, and the work is very psychologically rewarding. I also write when I have time. Mostly poetry and short stories. Sometimes I write fanfiction, but not very often.

Are there any animals that you feel drawn to or a connection with?
I feel pretty drawn to wolves. They keep to themselves and are solitary except for a few people that they are extremely loyal to. They remind me a lot of myself. I also feel ridiculously drawn to whales. I am rather obsessed with them. Their voices are so beautiful and soothing. I listen to songs of the humpback whales every night before I sleep. They are incredibly beautiful, and so gigantic. I would love to be that big. They're so peaceful (except orcas, the only type of whale I don't like), and seem to possess so much wisdom. I love whales dearly.

Are there any animals you are afraid of?
Spiders. That's such an unoriginal answer, but they really creep me out. With those legs and ugh... I just don't like spiders much. I enjoy staring at them from a distance, but not being anywhere close to them. I also HATE fish. I like sea mammals, but I hatehate fish. They are so slimy and disgusting and I have nightmares so often about my bed being full of fish. They gross me out to the extreme, and I am constantly afraid of coming into contact with them.

Why would you like to be an animagus?
I want to be able to experience life from a completely new and different perspective. I like to see things from all points of view, and I have never been able to see the world through any eyes but human eyes. I want to do something different, something exciting.
Also, I'd like to be able to take a form where no one would recognize me. It would be so nice to be able to sit on the sidelines and observe things without being bothered by anyone. Everyone would act like themselves, instead of putting on airs for me. I'd like to watch people when they don't know I'm watching, but not in a perverted way. Just in a way where I can glean different ideas about their personality.

Congratulations! The Animagus Board has reviewed your application and considered it meticulously, and come to a decision about your Animagus Form. We find that your personality suits that of a/an...

Snapping Turtle -- Snapping turtles are noted for their powerful beak-like jaws and pugnacious disposition. Their snapping jaws and sharp claws are capable of inflicting serious injury; these turtles are best left alone. They spend most of their time in ponds, shallow lakes and streams.

In order to complete your Animagus training, please submit a short essay (one page, double spaced length) on why you feel this animal compliments your personality to marije2308@yahoo.com . If you are not happy with the decision, please feel free to decline in a comment below. Once your essay is received, you will receive an official banner denoting your animal, and your name will be added to the Registered Animagus List. Thank you!
