Rickman passed away after a short battle with cancer at the age of 6. Magical creatures in Harry Potter. Magical creatures are a colourful aspect of the fictional . Throughout the seven books of the series, Harry and his friends come across many of these creatures on their adventures, as well as in the Care of Magical Creatures class at Hogwarts. Rowling has also written Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, a guide to the magical beasts found in the series. Many of these are derived from folklore, primarily Greek mythology, but also British and Scandinavian folklore. I might not use it, but to make it as consistent as I feel is good for my plot. Owls, for example, deliver mail. Magizoology. A person who studies Magizoology is known as a magizoologist. There are magizoologists who work in the Ministry of Magic, particularly in the Department for the Regulation and Control of Magical Creatures. One notable magizoologist is Newt Scamander, who in the universe of the series, is the author of Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, a textbook on magical creatures that is popular in the wizarding world. It is divided into three divisions: the Beast Division, the Being Division, and the Spirit Division. A . Their classification is unclear, and offices responsible for werewolves exist in both the Beast and Being Divisions. A number of creatures, such as house- elves, giants, banshees, veelas, dwarfs, and Dementors, have never been referred to as beings or as beasts, so their legal status is unclear (see below). Affairs related to ghosts come under the auspices of the Spirit Division. According to Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, creatures are also put under danger categories. Creatures that need to be treated with a sophisticated amount of respect, e. Centaurs, Unicorns, Phoenixes, and Merpeople, are given a four- x rating. List of magical creatures. Those creatures that Rowling took from myth and folklore have links to their mythological articles. The Blast- Ended Skrewt is a hybrid of a fire crab and manticore. Inferi are neither beasts nor beings, but merely animated corpses with no will of their own. For a list of magical plants mentioned in the series, such as mandrakes and devil's snares, see List of fictional plants. Blast- Ended Skrewt . Skrewts make their debut in Goblet of Fire, as one of the creatures that Hagrid teaches the students about as Professor of Care of Magical Creatures. The first fan to learn of the skrewts was Catie Hoch, an eight- year- old cancer patient from Albany, New York. Hoch's mother, who had read the first three books to Hoch during her treatment for neuroblastoma, emailed Rowling to ask her when the fourth book would be released, and Rowling gifted Hoch with transatlantic phone calls in which she read her extracts from the unpublished book, including explanations of the skrewts, which Rowling described as looking like headless lobsters. Rowling has written on Pottermore that they are . They are alternatively called 'the wandmaker's friend' as the trees they inhabit can be used to make wand's wood. It is also known as the Lion Dragon. Common Welsh Green . It is considered the most dangerous of the dragons. Norwegian Ridgeback . Norberta is a Norwegian Ridgeback. Peruvian Vipertooth . It is considered the smallest and fastest of the dragons. It is the only venomous dragon. Romanian Longhorn . The films give them octopus tentacles for legs, though they are not described as such in the novels. The Mokes can shrink at will which is why Muggles can't see them. Niffler . The Sphinxes are capable of human speech and are good at giving riddles, puzzles, and enigmas. Troll . It is said in Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone that if one drinks a unicorn's blood, it will give that person long- lasting life. However, it also eternally curses that person. Winged Horse: A horse with wings. Drinks only single- malt whiskey. Aethonan . It is said in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix that they are considered unlucky by many wizards because of this. Spirits. At least one of its horns is used as one of the ingredients for the Polyjuice Potion. Cockatrice . As a result, their appropriate classification is unknown. Among them are: Blibbering Humdinger: Luna mentioned that they were laughing at her earrings. Crumple- Horned Snorkack: An elusive creature that is said to live in Sweden. Xenophilius Lovegood acquired an Erumpent horn that he believed was from a Snorkack. The Erumpent exploded after being hit by a stunning spell and destroyed much of his house. Luna searched the world for the Crumple- Horned Snorkack, but never found one. Luna explicitly states that the creature cannot fly. Xenophilius claimed that Luna was fishing for Gulping Plimpies when she was being held prisoner at Malfoy Manor. Heliopath: An alleged spirit of fire which gallops and burns anything in its path. Nargle: The Nargles are said to infest mistletoes and are expert thieves. Luna Lovegood claims that her Butterbeer cork necklace and her Dirigible plum earrings keep the Nargles away and that her papers and shoes were taken by Nargles. Wrackspurt: In an early scene in the Harry Potter and the Half- Blood Prince film, Luna wears a pair of . During a point of view scene, Wrackspurts resemble floating points of light. Prominent Creatures. It originated in Borneo, where it inhabits dense jungle. Its distinctive features include the thick black hair that covers its body; its legspan, which may reach up to fifteen feet; its pincers, which produce a distinctive clicking sound when the Acromantula is excited or angry; and a venomous secretion. The Acromantula is carnivorous and prefers large prey. It spins dome- shaped webs on the ground. The female is bigger than the male and may lay up to one hundred eggs at a time. Soft and white, these are as large as beach balls. The young hatch in six to eight weeks. Acromantula eggs are defined as Class A Non- Tradeable Goods by the Department for the Regulation and Control of Magical Creatures, meaning that severe penalties are attached to their importation or sale. This beast is believed to be wizard- bred, possibly intended to guard wizard dwellings or treasure, as is often the case with magically bred monsters. Despite its near- human intelligence, the Acromantula is untrainable and highly dangerous to wizard and Muggle alike. Larger than its mythical counterpart, the Basilisk in the Harry Potter universe is capable of reaching a length up to fifty feet and living up to hundreds of years. Basilisks are uncontrollable except by Parselmouths, and the first basilisk is believed to have been created by a Greek Dark wizard and Parselmouth named Herpo The Foul. A male basilisk has a scarlet plume on its head. Ghosts who look at it directly will become petrified, since they could not die a second time. Spiders flee from the basilisk, as they are mortal enemies. The basilisk itself flees only from the crowing of a rooster, which if heard by the basilisk is fatal, and the weasel whose odour will also kill a basilisk. In Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, a basilisk is the monster inhabiting the Chamber of Secrets. When student Tom Riddle, later known as Lord Voldemort, opened the chamber, the basilisk killed Moaning Myrtle and hid in the chamber for 5. Riddle's memory (and Horcrux) opened the chamber again by possessing Ginny Weasley. During the events in the book, it is set loose again by one of Voldemort's Horcruxes, and attempts to kill several Muggle- borns, but due to good fortune all its victims were merely petrified. The Horcrux commanded Ginny Weasley to kill all the school roosters remarked upon by Hagrid. When Harry discovers the existence of the chamber and of its location, Riddle reveals his identity and sets the basilisk loose upon Harry while Ginny's life force ebbs away. Fawkes helps Harry, by blinding the basilisk with his talons and carrying the Sorting Hat; Harry pulls the sword of Godric Gryffindor from the hat, and uses it to impale the basilisk in the roof of its mouth, killing it. The basilisk's fangs and its venom absorbed by the sword of Gryffindor proved instrumental for destroying most of Voldemort's Horcruxes. In Chamber of Secrets, while killing the basilisk at the same time, Harry Potter was stabbed in the arm by the first fang, which broke off and was used by Harry to puncture Tom Riddle's diary (one of Voldemort's Horcruxes). In Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, after losing the sword of Gryffindor to Griphook, Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger return to the chamber and retrieve a fang from the dead basilisk's mouth, using it to destroy Helga Hufflepuff's cup. This time the chamber was opened by Ron by imitating Harry's Parseltongue. Ron Weasley, Neville Longbottom, and Hermione Granger used the sword of Gryffindor, laced with the basilisk's venom, to destroy the locket, Nagini and Marvolo Gaunt's ring, respectively. Boggarts. While British mythology describes boggarts as house- elves who cause trouble or malevolent beings inhabiting marshes or other lonely spots, Rowling's boggarts are more like Brollachans, magical creatures originating from Scotland. However, there is one record of an English (Lancashire) boggart which could take the form of various animals, or indeed more fearful creatures. The Riddikulus charm is used to combat Boggarts, by changing their appearance into a less fearsome or even comical apparition, which weakens the creatures. Centaurs. Their heads and torsos resemble those of humans but they possess the four legs, lower bodies and tail of a horse. Although sentient, they have not requested assignment as beings, preferring to remove themselves entirely from human affairs. Centaurs who decide to associate with humans, such as Firenze, who agrees to teach Divination at Hogwarts, can be seen as traitors and attacked by other centaurs. Firenze's interest in human affairs resulted in violent reprisals by other centaurs and were it not for Hagrid's intervention, Firenze could have been killed.
