Wand Core: Fwooper Feather (Canon)
Rather a weak core when compared to the majority, and suffering as the subject of a (false) superstition, fwooper feathers are rarely used as the sole core for a wand, but rather added as a secondary core to wands containing a different feather core.
Under powered and outclassed though it is, Fwooper feather wands do perform admirably with charms work and spells having to do with sound. They are, however, quite incapable of casting the silencing charm.
If part of a particularly loyal combination, fwooper feather wands will sabotage anyone but their owner from using it. In such situations the will emit a cacophonous bird cry that only the person trying to use the wind can hear that dulls their senses, slows their reactions and can cause them to question their reality.
There is a superstition that fwooper feather cores cause their owners to go insane. This is, of course, entirely false. The truth is, fwooper feather cores choose owners who are eccentric, go to their own beat and have a very unique view of the world that will cause some to see them as odd or not entirely sane. The wand will nurture their owners' beautiful weirdness and give them confidence, until they are willing to be more open about their mindset, being their authentic self. It is neither the owner nor wands fault that closed minded individuals will see them as insane or dim. This wand may also indicate a talent for singing.
“My wand contains a fwooper feather as a secondary core, and as you can see I am quite sane... Why are you laughing?” - January Hawkins, Resident Wandmaker, Ilvermorny School of Witchcraft and Wizardry
