‘Harry Potter’ Fans, You Can Now Find Out Your Patronus

“…[U] sers are able to discover and ultimately be presented with their Patronus – which has been chosen for them using J.K. Rowling’s own secret algorithm”. The quiz is a series of words without any questions attached.

In the novels, Harry Potter’s Patronus is a stag, reflecting his father’s Animagus transformation.

The interactive quiz takes users to the shores of the lake in the Forbidden Forest where Harry first used his Patronus against an army of Dementors. It’s the concentrated form that your happiest memories coalesce into, creating a protective spirit that will shield you from dark forces – soul-sucking Dementors, for instance.

If you recall, in the Harry Potter books, characters’ Patronuses would change following a “great shock. emotional upheaval”, according to Pottermore, like when Severus Snape fell in love with Harry’s mom Lily, and his Patronus became a doe like hers.

Pottermore has just launched a magical quiz where you can find out your personal Patronus.

I took the quiz and discovered that my Patronus is a Dapple Grey Mare, so basically I’m legendary.

We got a Hogwarts House quiz.

Pottermore’s Patronus experience is now available online for registered users.

Other animals Pottermore fans say they’ve been assigned include an aardvark, a red squirrel, a dapple grey mare and many more.

In fifth year, Harry taught the Patronus charm to the members of Dumbledore’s Army. Harry Potter fans queue around Trafalgar Square for the final installment of the Harry Potter film on July 7, 2011 in London, England.
