    I can just imagine...

    Harry James Potter
    Power: Scale-(begin)----------------(end)------------------(Zeus)--------->
    Skills
    -Shadow Mage
    -Uber Mage
    -Mage of all Mages
    -Mage that Mage!
    -All your Mage are belong to us.
    -Anitongue
    -Telepathy
    -Telekinesis
    -Empathy
    -'Hair' of Merlin
    -Some wootish skill
    -Floramagus - Oak

    Reminds me of some fics, other than the Floramagus. I'd find it hilarious if someone did use a Floramagus in their story. Better yet, I think I will.

    His floramagus form should be a venus fly trap. Then he can eat up Rita Skeeter

    -I give you! Harry Potter! Floramagus!--

    His name being 'potter' might have something to do with it...

    I think you could be a magical animagus (no im not a super!harry H/G dude) but I don't think Harry would be a phoenix either. That's just silly, I'm thinkin more on the lines of a basilisk or a hippocampus.

    Phoenix is a pretty tired idea, but the whole surviving death as a baby gives me enough reason not to completely discount a story that uses it. The whole non-magical only is primarily a fanon thing. Of course, you can always cheat and say surviving the killing curse is impossible too, yada yada yada.

    Personally, I think you can make your fic's Harry fit almost anything. Most non-magical forms are almost too boring for me. For canon!Harry I think my first story still has the most fitting magical form for him I've seen: A Snidget. Magical because he's dumb-lucky, and overall a bit of fricking wuss. Hides from people, flies like a mofo. And Cho couldn't catch him if she tried.

    Rofl. That's a pretty cool form. I mean, you'd be able to escape pretty much any time, any place. Unless your in a locked room but still, you'd be out the door as soon as it opens. They used to use these things as Snitches so they have to have some serious speed.

    Ach. Is it wrong that I think that picture of a weasel is just the cutest thing?
    :p . Anyhow, I can pretty much stomach any animagus form in any fic - unless its MultiAnimagus or whatever stupid name authors next come up with for be able to turn into any animal that has ever existed.

    Hello, T-Rex.
    Floramagus would be totally great. Think of all the possiblities...No,please, think of one. Well, I suppose it would be great for spying.

    "I just saw a shadow lurking behind that wall! Is it Harry Potter?!" said Voldy.
    Harry quickly turned into a dandelion.
    "Now, that is strange. A random dandelion is lurking behind a wall and growing on a slab of stone! Hmmm.."

    Are you fucking kidding? Ron has about as much power as hybrid car. If it were possible for him to be an animagus, which I highly doubt, it would have to be like a chimp or some other such simian because he doesn't have what it takes to change that much.

    I still stand by that a Snidget would be awesome. Old brooms did catch them, true, but old brooms catch Snitches too... they just cant catch the other seekers with the better brooms.

    Meh, fastest flying animal then... or... well, yeah.

    Harry's affinity with spiders is rarely used or even mentioned. It is pointed out he made no attempt to harm them when he lived in the cupboard. But I think the real reason for that is that spiders just seem too alien to really fit any human's personality, what with all the eyes and the wierd mouth shape, etc.

    Besides, the temptation would be too great to essentially turn him into Spiderman....

    As far as i can tell from the books is that you are not able to pick your form at all

    i don't know about Harry being a spider but i most likely feel that he should have a form that A) no-one will tink about in the wizarding worl and
    B) a form that will help him not only his fight with old snkae face but, something that will help him later on as well

    I reckon he should be a budgie... No one would suspect him them! They'd all be like "Aww... Look at it... It's just a cute little budgie that has green eyes and a lightening bolt mark on its forehead..." Not even Voldemort would suspect a thing :)
