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!

Comments? Questions? Just leave a comment below :)

House: Gryffindor
Best Trait: I feel that my best trait is my being artistic/creative. From the time I was little I have always loved anything to do with art. I often draw in a sketch book. I am currently going after a degree in Art, and have taken many classes of different mediums, such as clay, paint, sculpture, and design. Most of my time is spent doing something that involves art, even when I am watching tv, I enjoy pbs documentaries about famous artists.
Worst Trait: I tend to be very stubborn. I often get into arguments and will not back down, even if I may be partly wrong. I continue to have an attitude even after the conflict is over. Unless I am 100 percent at fault I will not apologize until the other party does.
What would you want your animal form to be most capable of? I would like my animal form to be capable of being strong as to protect itself, but not so much that it would be very noticeable, because its top trait would be stealth, the ability to go around undetected.
Choose one of the following -- Air, Water, Earth I choose Earth, I have always felt a connection with nature, particularly forests and mountainous areas.
Warm or cool? I don't like extremes of either, but I would much rather be warm than too cold.
Morning or evening? I am definitely nocturnal. I stay up all hours of the night until morning when I go to bed for awhile, I am somewhat of a vampire. I have the most fun at night, when it is dark and everything is quiet. I feel that is the best time to go and just walk around my yard, or take a drive.
Do you like to have people around you or are you more of a loner? I am not opposed to being around others, but I do like to have my quiet time to myself. I try at least once a day to find a spot where I can go and be alone, so I can read, or just sit in silence. My favorite spots are my room, a chair outside in a really wild leafy part of my yard, or the tub.
Please give an accurate description of your appearance; pictures are welcome! I will just give you a couple of pics. Me 1 (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v391/SarahDocBrandyBaer/My%20Graphics/photos/melayingdown1.jpg) Me 2 (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v391/SarahDocBrandyBaer/me.jpg) The first one is from a couple of weeks ago, and the second is my senior picture from 2003.
What are your favorite hobbies and extracurricular activities? I really enjoy art projects, designing costumes, watching movies, reading, hiking, learning as much as I can about anything, from history, to literature. I also spend a major amount of time on LJ, especially in

hogwartsishome, because HP is one of my favorite fandoms, along with Lotr.
Are there any animals that you feel drawn to or a connection with? I feel very drawn to cats. They are my favorite animal, and I have them as pets, which I treat them more like family members. I love almost all animals, but they have always been special for me.
Are there any animals you are afraid of? I am quite afraid of sea creatures, sharks mainly. But it is more of the thought of being in deep water and not able to see what is lurking down below, and even if they wouldn't want to eat me I still fear them for their size. And also spiders, I know technically they are not animals, but I fear them to the point of tears and screaming.
Why would you like to be an animagus? I would like to become an animagus because it takes work to do it. I want to prove to myself that I can handle the responsibility it takes to become one, and that I won't quit till I am finished. Also I would like to feel closer to nature, and becoming an animal doesn't get you any closer. And lastly, Marauders...that is my other reason.

I bought books 1-5 today, and also deposited knuts from May. I will give the link so you can check it, because I don't know whether you would want the vault updated first, or the books to be posted in my lookup before you review my application, but I just thought I would get started on all of this now.

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...

Iriomote Cat -- The Iriomote cat's coat is a dark, dusky brown, marked with dark spots that tend to merge into bands. They are the size of a domestic cat, with a relatively long body, short legs and tail, and dark, rounded ears with white central spots on the backs. These cats live in broad leaved, lowland sub-tropical rainforest, with dense mangroves along estuaries, and have also been seen along the sandy beaches of the island. During the winter months they move down from the more mountainous regions.

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!
