Official Harry Potter - Nymphadora Tonks Wand

Product Information

She really, really did not want this conversation to continue as it did because she didn't want to learn the logistics of how a centaur and half-giantess became that close of friends and she definitely did not want Harry to start asking questions. Firenze thankfully got the clue to change topics. Weaknesses: Takes things much to hard, anything athletic other than running, restlessness, indecisive, and can't tell a pixie from a blast-ended skrewett (this is to say, she can't really identify one magical creature from another).

We have received intelligence that you performed the Patronus Charm at twenty-three minutes past nine this evening in a Muggle-inhabited area and in the presence of a Muggle. The severity of this breach of the Decree for the Reasonable Restriction of Underage Sorcery has resulted in your expulsion from Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.You will explain yourself, right now.” Mrs. Weasley said sternly, hands on her hips. “Downstairs, right now, young man.” Finances: Middle-class. She's living comfortably, but if there comes a time when she wants something extravagant she does have to consciously put aside money and save for it. Dobby, listen to me, this is very important.” Harry whispered urgently. “A friend of mine has been captured by Death Eaters and they’re keeping her at Malfoy Manor. Can you Apparate me into the house?” Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery, Year 3, Chapter 6 ( The Letter from No One) - Herbology Lesson "Mandrakes"

Nymphadora literally means "Gift of the Nymphs." Nymphs are nature spirits and minor deities in Greek mythology who rule trees, sacred groves, streams and the ocean, and are capable of changing their form, just like Tonks. During the Renaissance, northern Europeans equated the classical nymphs with their own legends of elves. If we therefore read "gift of the nymphs" as "gift of the elves", this echoes the ancient myth of babies stolen by elves and replaced by hideous monsters called "changelings". 'Nymph' is also the name of the "immature stage of a dragonfly or damselfly before it moults, before metamorphosing into a winged adult". All three meanings reference Tonks's metamorphosing skills. Tonks and Remus were married in the summer of 1997. She formed part of the Advance Guard and bravely participated in the Battle of the Seven Potters. Tonks became pregnant by this time and Remus began to worry that he had passed on his werewolf condition to their son, though this proved not to be the case as the child had inherited only Tonks's metamorphic abilities. She went away to Hogwarts at age eleven like all good English witches and wizards do, and was sorted into Hufflepuff, much to her surprise. After awhile she decided that that being loyal wasn't such a bad quality to have and settled in nicely to her house. She made friends with some of her fellow Hufflepuffs, though her best friend was a girl from Ravenclaw who was often dragged around on some of Tonks' more 'adventerous' ideas. She liked very much to have fun and bounce around the castle, trying to be clever and coy with her schemes, but she'd always been clumsy and just all around generally not stealthy. So she spent more time being caught by Filch than actually pulling anything off successfully. He wasn't sure if his broom could handle a sudden ninety-degree shift, but if it could take going horizontal to vertical with no problems then it was worth a shot.EDIT : I'm adding that it seems they want to be discreet. I don't see them warning the ministry that they are going to use magic, because even that Kingsley, Arthur and Tonks are associated is a secret.
