    Well I'd assume that if Muggles saw a T-Rex running around they'd probably tranq the fuck out of you and then stick you in a zoo a la Jurassic Park.

    I wonder why there has been no greater effort at improving the process. It seems to me that the skill is awesome, and makes sense to be more available.
    The marauders were capable of achieving the skill, and while black and potter were said to be top students, even Peter managed it. If he could do it, then more could do so. I bet it is due to the ministry restricting it, or the purebloods keeping the lore to themselves.

    Seriously though could a mod change the title of the thread, please? The word is Animagus, not Animangus.

    What forms I would want as an animagus is an interesting question. It is not something I usually think about as I would happily settle for just having magic and if I could one-up that I would pick being a metamorphmagus every time. That being said when it comes to mythological animals I'm no different than anyone else here wanting the ability to fly. Phoenix and Quetzalcoatl are among the first come to mind with a leaning towards phoenix as being able to heal people with tears would be a nice extra perk on top of flight. However on the mundane side I would go with the Turritopsis dohrnii. Yes I wouldn't get much direct fun out of being a jellyfish, but being able to be around as long as humanity is around I could choose to be so as well.

    A knut for my thoughts

    In the official page of pottermore I go out as a cat, that certainly describes correctness as I am but if I could get on something else, I would definitely choose the most magical creature that in my years of reading I was found, I speak of the kirin described by The author Fuyumi Ono in twelve kingdoms this being is perhaps one of the most magical and magnificent that he has had the pleasure of reading.

    Non-magical animal Turritopsis nutricula, which is the immortal jellyfish. I would never transform, but I would use the shit out of the regeneration ability, Nicholas Flamel is a n00b

    Magical animal I'd be a phoenix for the same damn reason; that, or a quezalcoatl, because it is majestic.

    So on pottermore, they said that it is not uncommon that your animal form and patronus match. I took the quiz twice, the first time was a Sparrow and the second was a crow. I dont mind either. Common enough to blend in with muggle society and the flying is a added bonus

    According to This one website A cat of some kind. Where are you guys getting yours? Just pulling them out of the air? Cause as I recall, Rowling said it's whatever best fist your personality.

    Which makes me wonder if it changes depending on what happens in your life....

    I feel like I identify pretty closely with the riflebird. I'm aware that it's not entirely a good thing, but at least it's fun lol.

    Magical? Definitely a Niffler.

    I've always been under the impression that one's animagus form is linked with one's personality. That said, people do change over time, yet the animagus forms seem to be set from the time the transformation is first achieved. The animagus forms I would have preferred when I was younger would have been any animal that was considered 'cool', but now all I can imagine is myself as a fluffy dog that enjoys napping in the sun while appearing adorable enough that anyone I encounter is overwhelmed with the desire to feed me snacks. :p

    I just picked out of the animals I find interesting as Momo started the thread with asking if one could have any form. That being said when it comes to the random online quizzes I tend to get birds or sea creatures so I guess I'm not that unpredictable.


    The idea of one's form changing is an interesting idea. Not sure how traumatic it would have to be to cause it though considering what happened Sirius...

    Sirus' form was used to comfort him during much of his trauma, it kept him sane and human. If he associated himself with a dog before Azkaban, he most surely associated himself with it even more strongly afterwards. It's totally poetic that being a dog is what kept him human though.

    Thank you.

    It isn't often mentioned, but this is probably one of the most heartbreaking things about Sirius' character. He's like the dog that waits by its master's grave: just too loyal to move on.

    My own animagus forms if I could have them? I'd be a Labrador retriever, hands down. They're just too damn happy. As for magical? Gimme that unicorn form any day. Look at me, I'm a natural born virgin detector that all the hot ones love to touch.

    I'd be a raven/crow...you can fly, but they are common enough that you blend in. As for a magic creature....House elf baby so you could teleport...or maybe a phoenix for the same reason, plus healing tears would be pretty useful. Just pull out the Old Yeller video and a vial and you'd be set.

    Non magical: Koala Bear

    They're basically the animal kingdom's version of a lush. So pretty much me as an animal, but much more adorable and lovable.

    Magical: Undecided

    There's just way too many amazing magical animals to choose from.
