finley scott holmes
FINLEY :
finley is both a surname and a gender-neutral given name. Its meaning is of scottish origin, from the gaelic personal name fionnlagh (old irish findlaech), composed of the elements fionn "white", "fair" + laoch "warrior", "hero", which led many people to believe that has been reinforced by an old norse personal name composed of the elements finn "finn" + leikr "fight", "battle", "hero". finley was simply named by the orphanage using a baby name book as he had been left with no name.
SCOTT :
scott is an ethnic or geographical name signifying a native from scotland or a person who spoke gaelic, derived from the old english scotti, originally a generic name given by the romans to gaelic raiders from ireland. another random name picked from a baby book with no real meaning.

WAND :
straight 12 1/2 inch whippy black walnut wand with basilisk skin core
LENGTH :
a fairly average length for a wand, not at all uncommon or very special.
STYLE :
straight and smooth: what else is there to say?
WOOD :
black walnut wands are especially aware of self deception and may not perform as expected for a witch or wizard in a state of inner conflict. self-aware and assured wizards will have found a powerful and loyal companion, however.
CORE :
because of the unusual circumstances necessary to create a basilisk and the ban placed on breeding this creature, most wandmakers are reluctant to admit owning wands with this core. the core itself is particularly useful at producing wands that will be strong at defensive and offensive magic. additionally, parselmouths and dark wizards seem to be particularly fond of wands with this core. due to a basilisk's fear of roosters, these wands have been known to behave unpredictably on or near farms.
FLEXIBILITY :
a wand that is quite simple to master but lacks power

unknown

unknown
