I love the comparison of HP creatures to real people, my favorite being the Phoenix analogy. <br /><br />Unicorns are my favorite mystical creature, and I think I strive to have similar qualities, though I have yet to master the ability to be positive all the time. <br /><br />I see a little Hippogriff in myself.
