      @@lordvika2526 True, but Harry’s is quite rough. The handle is literally bark. Newt’s is smoother, while still looking natural.
      Also, IIRC, the inside of Newt’s wand is coated with silver from Occamy eggs, which really fits his character.
      It also has some teeth marks from his habit of holding it in his mouth when his hands are occupied.
      In short, I think that Newt’s wand is the one that most closely matches the character and personality of its wielder.

      As far as the books go, I don’t think we know too much about the aesthetics of the wands, other than the wood they’re made from. We do know that you can see fingerprints on Harry’s want (from the Wand Weighing ceremony I’m book 4), so it must be smooth and somewhat polished, but other than that I don’t think we know much.

      I think someone did at some point- probably Harry, and at least in the movie he did. I distinctly remember her going "there was a great big pair of yellow eyes" describing the moment before death and then not know what happened next and she was dead. They were already under the impression it was a magical beast that was causing the deaths. This does nothing but confirm that it wasn't likely to be the direct result of a person at least.

    I was rewatching Chamber Of Secrets and we noticed the Cornish Pixies can use the wand but only make a very vague spark. I also remembered how the monkey in Fantastic Beasts uses Newt's wand. Same spark. So I was thinking that if a muggle got it, that's the most it could do. Like you said it was completely accidental but the pixies clearly made that choice to break the chandelier, so maybe having any kind of connection to magic even if it's not wizard magic lets them have at least some control.

    Wouldn’t it be cool if Harry at the Malfoy manor disarmed draco without a wand. Like by flicking his hand or something like that when he runs up to him.
    It would have showed Harry’s power even without a wand which I think the Elder wand would’ve liked.

    I think the muggle would be more like the keeper of the elder wand, until it finds a new master
    Also Ima say it again, I always thought the elder wand was a concept, as in elderly, not as in the wood / material. It just happened to originally be made of elder, for the symbolism. So I always thought when Harry snatched Draco's wand, any wand he used would work as the elder, until he were defeated - he didn't need to hold the actual "elder" wand - which would make him still the master after the series unbeknownst to him and everyone else. This way the wand itself can be destroyed, but the Hallow always exists - unless Harry dies without ever being disarmed or any other using it

    His latest album is called Ripples. Highly recommend checking him out and the songs f.e.a.r, in the year 2525, keep what you've got. Sally cinnamon, or any of his music.
    Turn out he was a friend of the director and he cameo in so his kids would be happy. He chose the book and the wandless magic due to mixing muggle and magic views over Stephen Hawking's and his love for both sides.

      I don't think it was his intention to give the elder wand this personality. His goal was to create the most powerful wand in existence, it just happens that the materials which gave the wand its potential, also shaped its personality, like Rowling's piece on wand woods, cores and length explains. Some wands tend to change their allegiance, others are more loyal to their original owner. After all, the wand chooses the wizard

    Idea for HP alternate history: Grindelwald is killed in the Blitz in 1940, making a random German bombardier master of the Elder Wand before Dumbledore has a shot at it. He in turn dies a month later when his plane is shot down by a Spitfire, making the British pilot the wand's master. A couple of years later, he is shot down in a dogfight over France by a German who, unbeknownst to himself, actually is a wizard. This German survives the war, and feeling that something is missing in his life, ends up finding Durmstrang and discovering his own abilities. The Elder Wand, having been found by British wizards, is now in a display case at the Ministry of Magic in London, but it is calling to its master much like the One Ring called to Sauron. The German pilot-turned-wizard now has to escape Soviet-occupied East Germany (he is for some reason unable to apparate), cross the Channel on a battered second-hand broom, and sneak into the ministry to find his wand. Hijinks ensue.
