Question: What are the known patronuses in Harry Potter!?
Can somebody name every character and their patronus!? (The ones that were mentioned anyway!.!.!.)Www@QuestionHome@Com


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
Harry's, of course, is the Stag;
Hermione's is an otter;
I forgot Ron's, but I think it may have been a dog!.
Luna's is a rabbit, I believe, but don't claim it for truth;
Mr!. Weasley's is a weasel (ironically);
Kingsley's is a Lynx;
Umbridge (stupid fat cow) uses a cat;
McGonnagal uses a cat too;
Dumbledore's is a Phoenix (my favorite mythological creature);
Snape's is a Doe (because of Lily);
Lily's was a doe (obviously);
James's was a stag (again, obviously);
Tonks's was a werewolf (never knew what it was before book 6);
there were many students in the D!.A!. with patronuses, but you can't match them up, because I think Jo described Harry unable to tell whose was whose!.
Sirius's patronus was a dog;
Although it's never explained (can't wait for the "Scottish Book" from Jo), I think Lucius Malfoy's may have been the peacock, but it could aslo have been the protective charm over the gates - or simply a peacock!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Harry - Stag
Hermione -- Otter
Ron - Jack Russell terrier
Luna - Hare
Albus Dumbledore - Phoenix
Aberforth Dumbledore - Goat
McGonagall - Tabby cat with markings that resemble spectacles
Snape - Doe
Tonks - Wolf/Werewolf
Shacklebolt - Lynx
Arthur Weasley - Weasel
Cho Chang - Swan
Dolores Umbridge - Long-haired cat

That's all I remember--the two books that mention the Patroni the most are the fifth and the seventh books!. Skim through them!. Ginny's, Seamus's, Lily's, James's, and Sirius's patroni are never mentioned (though previous responses may say otherwise)--Seamus is described as producing something "hairy" but it disappears before Harry takes a look!. Websites you could look at are the HP Lexicon, which, despite the SVA trial, is still up and running (although not updated)!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
