In the Chamber of Secrets, we are introduced to a very fascinating concoction called Polyjuice Potion. In order to make it properly, it takes skill and of course the right ingredients as well as a bit of moxy wink.gif A very important ingredient is a small portion of that person who you are going to transform yourself into.

We see Ron and Harry use the Polyjuice Potion to turn themselves into Crabbe and Goyle. If you had the opportunity to use Polyjuice Potion; who would you choose to transform yourself into and why?

Have fun smile.gif

Ooooh ! Great thread lirene ! thumbup.gif

Let's see, who'd I like to impersonate ? Boy, this is difficult ! Harry and Ron had to get information out of Draco and that's why they chose Crabbe and Goyle, but assuming I didn't have to do that, I'd choose to become Draco and do all sorts of rule-breaking taking care to be seen, but not caught so that he'd get punished for it. tongue.gif I know, it's sneaky and unfair, but so's he.

Thanks rowena smile.gif

You know; I'd never thought about transforming myself into Draco; that's fascinating! I wonder what it would be like to actually be liked by Snape too wink.gif

If I had the opportunity to use the Polyjuice Potion I would choose several people to turn myself into. First Fred and George; I would have loads of fun impersonating them!!!

Second, I would transform into Dumbledore; I would love to be Headmaster smile.gif

And third, I would choose to be Neville heart.gif I've always wanted to be in his "shoes" and see what he went through as a student at Hogwarts.

I know this may seem weird but I think I'd be Filius Flitiwick, although he is short tongue.gif. I like goblins
Rather a goblin that is admired, people love Flitwick, he rocks!! Not too mention he was a dueling champion.
I'd love being a goblin dueling champion lol

The wisest man ever, according to the Odyssey, was Tiresias, a blind prophet of Thebes, especially because he was transformed into a woman for seven years.

Wouldn't that be a 'wise' way to use Polyjuice Potion?

Btw, Crabbe and Goyle did it in HBP (did they get wiser?) and Fleur and Hermione in DH.

In HP world I would like to become Dumbledore, and find out what it's like to be respected by practically everybody! Then Ginny so I could kiss Harry... kiss.gif ..just joking, I'm married !!

In real life it's actually quite hard, probably some millionaire, an hour should be enough to organize a nice holiday all inclusive (in a nice nature reserve, or something) for me and all my family (5 kids are expensive to have a holiday with!!). wizard.gif

I don't think Polyjuice Potion should be used for fun. So it's quite correct that the recipe is found only in the restricted section of the library. So far, we have seen only Hermione, Crouch sr, Slughorn and Moody be able to prepare it.

I think it would be hilarious to bumble around being Lockhart for a while. Just sitting in his study with all his pictures on the wall would be a laugh riot.

I'd be Ron because he gets a first hand look into everything that goes on but he's not the center of attention. I'd hate to be in Harry's shoes. I wouldn't be able to handle being stared at all the time.

IRL: I have no idea.
