Biodata
| Feature | Value |
|---|---|
| Name | Wand (魔杖) |
| Occupation/Role | Magical implement used to cast spells 4 8 |
| First Appearance | Chapter 4, when Jerry Green visits Ollivander’s Wand Shop 4 |
Selection and Ownership
- Ollivander tests more than a dozen wands before finding one that responds naturally to Jerry. He describes the match by saying that “the wand chooses the wizard” 4.
- A wand can respond differently to another user: during a Triwizard Tournament inspection, Jerry’s yew wand stings Ollivander’s hand and flies back to Jerry 317.
- Ollivander tells Jerry that Ministry rules permit a wizard to buy a replacement only when their first wand is damaged 5.
Magical Use
- Wands direct spells ranging from Lumos to the Patronus Charm. Jerry’s Lumos illuminates the entire lakeside dock at Hogwarts 8.
- A wand can be examined to reveal spells recently cast with it. Such a test confirms Jerry cast the Patronus Charm, while a later test shows that Harry’s wand conjured the Dark Mark—but does not establish who held it 45 293.
- A wand is not always necessary for magic: Madam Malkin moves a tape measure without one, and Jerry later uses wandless magic 4 162 362.
Notable Wands
| Wand | Description | Connection to the story |
|---|---|---|
| Jerry’s yew wand | Yew wood, dragon-heartstring core, twelve and a half inches; smooth and ivory-white 4. | Made by Ollivander decades before Jerry selects it. It responds as naturally as Jerry’s own hand and later refuses Ollivander’s handling 4 317. |
| Jerry’s ebony wand | Ebony, dragon-heartstring core, nine inches and springy 35. | Drawn from Jerry’s system. He keeps it as an unrecorded spare and plans to use it for tasks he does not want traced to his yew wand 35. |
| The Elder Wand | A wand initially held by Dumbledore, who lends it to Jerry for his summer trip to Paris 70 73. | Jerry feels no resistance when using it. His mother later reveals that his parents magically bound him to it as a baby, making him its master when he touched it again at Hogwarts 72 208. |
| David’s Elder Wand copy | An alchemical imitation with limits on its power and number of uses 236. | Jerry’s parents use it in a modified Soul Curse to sever and seal parts of four nobles’ souls without killing them 236. |
