In order to preserve the uniqueness of the following abilities, we require you to apply for them with only a limited number of spots. If all the spots for the ability you desire are taken, you must wait for a member to go inactive. ANIMAGUS An Animagus (pl. Animagi) is a witch or wizard who can morph him or herself into an animal at will. It is a learned, rather than hereditary skill, unlike those of a Metamorphmagus. The Animal form is identical to the wizard's patronus. Must be at least 15. LEGILIMEN Legilimency is the act of magically navigating through the many layers of a person's mind and correctly interpreting one's findings. A person who practises this art is known as a Legilimens. Laymen sometimes refer to Legilimency as "mind-reading," but practitioners disdain this term as naive. The opposite of Legilimency is Occlumency, which may be used to shield one's mind from the invasion and influence of a Legilimens. METAMORPHMAGUS A Metamorphmagus (pl. Metamorphmagi) is a witch or wizard with the ability to change his or her physical appearance at will, rather than requiring Polyjuice Potion or a spell like the rest of the wizarding population. They can alter their form to appear as another human. They can even make minor changes to their body to give them more animalistic characteristics. OCCLUMEN Occlumefncy is the act of magically closing one's mind against Legilimency. It can prevent a Legilimens from accessing one's thoughts and feelings, or influencing them. A person who practises this art is known as an Occlumens. SEER A Seer is a gifted wizard or witch who has the ability to see into the future with their Inner Eye. Seers predict prophecies, which are then recorded and stored in the Hall of Prophecy in the Ministry of Magic's Department of Mysteries. A seer usually will not remember the prophecies which they predict. True Seers are extremely rare. SILENT MAGIC This is the ability to use magic without having to recite an incantation. This requires much discipline and focus and often cannot be used in stressful situations. Mastering this requires much training, and those who train using it often cannot remain calm enough to do it in life or death situations. Using silent magic still requires reciting an incantation in one's head. WANDLESS MAGIC A wandless spell is a spell which is performed without the use of a wand. This magic can be particularly volatile, and can only be used effectively by extremely powerful and/or disciplined wizards and witches. Sometimes, specific hand gestures focus the power of the spell and guide it to the target. These spells are often tied in with one's emotions. WEREWOLF A werewolf is a human being who, upon the complete rising of the full moon, turns into a fearsome and deadly near-wolf.
