Zoo-magus Ability
What animal would you be? A lion? a tiger? a wolf or snail? You choose! It comes with its drawbacks, like growing a tail or whiskers, but who knows? It might feel good.

The Marauders' Map
A map not simply of Hogwarts, but of the every place you wish for. Tracking every person, every friend, every cat on the street, every unpleasant man or girl-sounds nice, isn't it. Credit to Masters Wormtail, Padfoot, Moony and Prongs.

Legilimency
Who wouldn't want the ability to read minds? Who wouldn't like to know when he/she is lied to. Knowing the truth is something tempting but dangerous because truth often hurts. But most of you would certainly take the risk.

Apparition
Star Trek is completely blasted apart by J.K.Rowling's wizards' manner of teleportation. You just think of the place and you are there. You want to go to the shop? Apparate. You want to go to a pool full of gorgeous people? Apparate. Cool, yeah?

Moving Portraits
You get into Hogwarts and this is the very first thing that makes an impression. Well maybe not the first but it is one of the best. Imagine Mona Lisa talking - she might even tell you her secret.
8:
Invisibility Cloak
Go wherever you want, untouched by anything, unseen by anyone-this is definitely your schedule for the rest of the predominant part your life if you get one of those. Ask Harry, he knows.
7:
Flying Brooms
If you ask Eastern Europeans about flying brooms, they will be reminded of Grandma Yaga-a popular folklore character which mounts brooms and eats little children. But still for most fans, this is the coolest vehicle ever created.
6:
Ghosts
It is not just about your close ones. It is about meeting people who have died thousands of years ago. Imagine talking to Genghis Khan and talking about his 1000 wives. Priceless situations, priceless memories. And ghosts have so much of that.

Time Turner
Do you regret mistakes of the past? No more with this magical trinket. You will have to make a lot of swings but perhaps it is for the best, is it not? We all have just one life, maybe if less mistakes darken it, it will be far better.

Philosopher's Stone
You want to be immortal? To live forever, happily ever after without fear of Death? You need no Deathly Hallows, you just need this stone and a very good drinking habit so you can continue consuming the stone's Potion of Life every month. Even immortality comes with some discomforts.
3:
Felix Felicis
Liquid luck is better than alcohol. With alcohol you might feel lucky but at the same time the world may be crushing down upon you. With Felix, drunk or not, you gain success after success. Dead certain.

The Ressurection Stone
You miss those you have loved and lost with no chance of saying or doing with them what you wanted? This is your chance-the magical powerful deathly hallow that brings back people from the dead. It doesn't happen the way one would want, but at least it happens. A heart-breaking but beautiful dream.

Magic Wand
Pick a spell, an incantation or why not a curse? You have the full power of magic, of everything your heart desires in your hands. The best gift you can ask for in the world of Mr. Potter.
