How Dumbledore Became Owner of the Elder Wand - Harry Potter Explained

  • Hey guys,
    Welcome to another installment of Harry Potter Theory. In this video, we’re going to be discussing Dumbledore, Grindelwald, Draco Malfoy, Voldemort, Harry Potter, and the possession of the elder wand.
    Now, if you don’t know what the elder wand is, then I don’t know what books you’ve been reading or movies you’ve been watching. But, here’s a brief introduction to the elder wand, for the videos sake.
    The Elder wand was the first hallow created, made by Death himself, and it was said to be the most powerful wand that ever existed. The Elder Wand is made of elder wood, and it’s core is the tail hair of a Thestral. It’s 15” long and has carvings down its length that resemble clusters of elderberries. With the elder wand, witches and wizards are able to effortlessly produce intensely powerful magic that others could only dream of. Possession of the wand also meant that you could produce magic which was not otherwise possible, this includes mending other wands that could not normally be repaired through magic. It’s insanely powerful, particularly in the hands of an equally powerful witch or wizard.
    We see the elder wand pass hands on numerous occasions in the harry potter books and films, but there seems to be some misconceptions floating around about how the ownership of the wand is actually earned or transferred. Without going too far back in to the wands ownership, it belonged to the following owners:
    Mykew Gregorovitch, thern Gellert Grindelwald, then Albus Dumbledore, then Draco Malfoy, and then Harry Potter.
    We’re lead to believe that the wand also belonged to both Snape and Voldemort, but this was never the case. They had the wand in their possession, but they weren’t the true owners. The wand hadn’t chosen them.
    So, if acquiring it and having it in your possession doesn’t necessarily mean that the elder wand is yours, then, how do you claim ownership of it? How does the wand CHOOSE you? Let’s first take a look at how the wand was acquired by each of the above.
    We don’t actually know how Mykew Gregorovitch obtained the wand, but we do know that Grindelwald became the owner by stealing it from him. Dumbledore later defeats Grindelwald in a duel, and becomes the rightful owner of the wand himself. Many many years later, Draco Malfoy disarms Dumbledore, and becomes the new owner. Then, Harry Potter trods along, and snatches the wand for himself. Harry Potter only has the wand in his possession for a short period, before disposing of it.
    So, we can see here that the wand transfers ownership in a couple of different ways. Where it was previously thought, particularly by Voldemort, that gaining ownership of the wand required murder- all of the above contradicts this. And this was one of Voldemort’s fatal errors in his battle against Harry. Just because he had the wand in his possession, it didn’t show allegiance to him- it showed allegiance to Harry.
    Many believe that because Grindelwald STOLE the elder wand from Gregorovitch, rather than killing him, he was never the true owner. This would mean that Dumbledore, who acquired the wand after defeating Grindelwald, wasn’t the true owner either. But this doesn’t work with the story at all, as it would mean that no one after Gregorovitch was actually a true owner of the wand. That’s why the notion of murdering to acquire it makes absolutely no sense.
    Defeat isn't limited to death, which means that you can gain ownership by just overpowering the current owner. JK Rowling expanded on how the elder wand chooses ownership in an interview:
    "The Elder Wand is simply the most ruthless of wands in that it will only take into consideration strength. One would expect a certain amount of loyalty from one's wand. So even if you were disarmed while carrying it, even if you lost a fight while carrying it, it has developed an affinity with you that it won't give up easily. If, however, a wand is won, properly won in an adult duel, then a wand may switch allegiance ... However, the Elder Wand knows no loyalty except to strength. It's completely unsentimental. It will only go where the power is. So if you win, then you've won the wand. You don't need to kill with it. But ... almost inevitably, it attracts wizards who are prepared to kill and who will kill. And also it attracts wizards like Voldemort who confuse being prepared to murder with strength."

      But Tina disarmed Grindelwald long before the duel with Dumbledore. That would have made Tina the true owner of the Elder Wand. Perhaps in one of the upcoming "Fantastic Beasts" movies, Grindelwald will duel Tina and win back the loyalty of the Elder Wand.
      Except that Tina was then disarmed by that other guy in Crimes of Grindelwald (I forgot his name), so then he's the master of the Elder Wand. Grindelwald will have a lot of work to do to regain its ownership before the duel with Dumbledore.

      Voldemort was following the trail of the Elder Wand, killing everyone he thought had owned it at some point. Gregorovitch, Grindelwald, and had traced the wand to Dumbledore. I doubt that he was aware that Draco had used Expelliarmus before Snape delivered the killing blow, so he thought the wand's allegiance must have passed to Snape.

    It could make sense that only killing works. maybe gregorovich was the owner until Voldemort killed him and it became his. But that changes because Harry survives the avada kedavara of Voldemort and survived (he just conquered death) and the reason it was made was because someone conquered death so from the emoment the killing curse hit Harry it was Harry's wand.
    It is a theory I have

      @gelovillacin6657 4 года назад +1

      The wizard/witch has a deep connection with their wands and they can sense if it fully works for them. That's why draco said to harry that his new wand, though powerful, didn't somehow understand him. Same reason as Neville can't perform good magic as it was originally his dad's. Until he got to have his own wand in the later part of the series. This was wonderfully explained by the author herself. So sorry your theory about the need to kill makes no sense.

    • @stixoimatizontas
      @stixoimatizontas 3 года назад +1

      The thing is that Harry wasn't killed at the Forbidden Forest because Voldemort himself was keeping Harry alive. Remember what Voldemort did the night he came back? What were the 3 elements that brought him back and gave him a new body? He used Harry's blood, blood that was protected by his mother sacrifice. So, as long as Voldemort was alive he was keeping Harry alive too. At least this is the explanation it in the book. Dumbledore says it to Harry when they meet.

    Based on the stated theories about how wands transfer their allegiance, the Elder Wand has only had 2 true masters. The first brother, that Death made the wand for and Harry. "Death transfigured to a murderous wizard. The unknown murderous wizard crept to the inn as the eldest brother slept, drunk from wine. The wizard slit the oldest brother’s throat for good measure and stole the wand. That was when Death took the first brother". The first brother was not defeated or disarmed, meaning either the wand had no master or Death was it's master, until Harry became the "Master of Death" after collecting all 3 Deathly Hallows.

    While JKR never denied it was a strong influence, there is a situation in Lord of the Rings that completely matches Voldemort's error through misconception. When Pippin looks through the Palantir, after the Fall of Isengard, Sauron thinks he, Pippin, has the Ring and acts accordingly (sends a Ringwraith to investigate and when it is obvious Pippin is going to Minas Tirith an attack is mounted as soon as possible).
    This is not the only case of misconception in LotR either. Denethor sees the perceived might of Mordor, again through a Palantir, and despairs. Sauron is confronted by Aragorn, via Palantir, and thinks HE has the Ring, turning his "eye" on Aragorn instead of guarding his home so Frodo has a chance to slip undetected.
    What we see is always those characters who are immensely confident in themselves and suppose they could never be wrong about anything, usually make mistakes on otherwise simple and clearcut matters. Arrogance indeed is a bad guide through life! ;-)

    There is a theory that I saw from Super Carlin Brothers where they said that when Tina disarms Grindelwald at the end of Fantastic Beasts, she becomes the master. Later she will be disarmed by Dumbledore making him the master not Grindelwald. This is how Dumbledore wins the duel. We also know that Grindelwald isn’t the master because he tells Voldemort that he was not the master.

    • @gelovillacin6657
      @gelovillacin6657 4 года назад +1

      We wouldn't really know so I hope the movies will be out soon. But based on what JK rowling said, the elder wand only stays loyal to strength. When draco disarm dumbledore, he was already very weak and at the edge of death because of the curse, so as simple as disarming him will change its allegiance. harry and draco were sort of equal with skill i believe however during the event of the malfoy manor draco was unstable with his loyalty as he no longer likes the treatment they get from voldemort and see harry as the only possible way out. Therefore, harry was a more powerful wizard.
      In addition, dumbledore explained to harry that the duel between grindelwald earned him the elder wand. making him the true master of it. because he didn't want to defeat the owner, but want to save people from it. So even with equal skill and ability, dumbledore surely had the upper hand.

    Maybe that is why he refused to duel Grindelwald for so long, he didnt want to know if he was the owner of elder wand or not because that would truly prove he was the one who ended up killing Ariana

    Okay here's another two theories. Dumbledore like Voldemort was a great wizard so the magic he performed was due to Dumbledore's own strength not the wand. Gregorovich was never actually bested by Grindelwald, the spell could've easily missed. Therefore when Voldemort killed him the wand changes allegiance to Voldemort but with all but four pieces of his soul missing he couldn't bring out its full power because he was barely really living. Then when he faced Harry someone he saw as his potential equal the wand responded to that miniscule doubt he had in himself and switched sides. The second theory is much like the first but switch out Gregorovich with Snape who killed Dumbledore. The second one I feel can also explain why Dumbledore was able to win an unbeatable wand from Grindelwald who saw Dumbledore as a better wizard than himself.

    Love this video, however the one issue is that if by simply disarming the wizard who owns the wand means an allegiance change, then Tina owns the wand since she disarmed Grindelwald (disguised as Graves, I think his name was?) at the end of the first Fantastic beasts, and we know the wand was in Grindelwalds possession at the time of that, so wouldn’t the wand choose Tina since she disarmed Grindelwald? It’s almost like the whole Harry and Malfoy thing, Malfoy didn’t HAVE the elder wand with him, because it was in Dumbledore’s grave, yet when Harry took Draco’s wand off him, the elder wand then answered to Harry....so why doesn’t the wand fail for Grindelwald in Fantastic Beasts?

As Voldemort was afraid of death but Harry willingly sacrificed himself, he became the worthier of the 2 and the wand changed its allegiance,perhaps?

    @Dawid23_Gamer 3 года назад

    Okay so this is my personal theory on the elder wand:
    It's made from elder wood and thestral tale hair. Thestrals and unicorns are opposite, so it's safe to assume that it applies to their respective cores as well, so I reversed all the properties of the core:
    _Thestral tale hair is the best core for a wand, creating a wand more powerful than any. A wand with a thestral hair in its core is the least faithful wand that can be made however, it knows no loyalty and will only pledge its power to the most powerful witch or wizard it encounters. In addition to this, the wand may sabotage or weaken the magic performed if it deems you unworthy of its true power._
    By this theory the elder wand *is* the most powerful, but if you're too weak, then the power is weak. This explains every owner change:
    Gregorovitch got it stolen by Grindelwald, who was more powerful, and stunned him. Then he was the wand's true owner, until he dueled Dumbledore. Here the wand realized that Dumbledore was more powerful, so weakened/sabotaged grindelwald and Dumbledore won the duel, becoming the true owner.
    Voldemort was less powerful than dumbledore because of his ripped soul, so it stayed by him.
    Then, Draco disarmed Dumbledore, but this *does NOT* mean he was the owner. He'd be too weak from the start. And Harry disarming him means nothing. If it stayed by Draco's side like that, it'd mean that it's extremely loyal but just defeating the owner makes the change happen, which contradicts the thestral tale hair core description.
    Voldemort took the wand from Dumbledore's grave, but because his soul has been ripped apart so badly, the wand deemed him unworthy of its power.
    When Harry went to the woods, he was more powerful and the master of death being in possesion of the other deathly hallows, so he was deemed worthy, but because the wand couldn't sabotage Voldemort, it mainly just knocked him out.
    Then, when he dueled Harry, the wand turned on him now since it could, and Harry became its true owner, then put it back in Dumbledore's grave. Now, I think that Harry, the one who unified the deathly hallows, will stay the owner until he'll die, and then will start its search all over again.

    It would have been hilarious if Draco had discovered he was the master of the elder wand. Maybe it would have given him confidence to reach his true potential. Magically, Draco is very talented, but being just lacked confidence. Mainly due to bullying from his father and Voldemort.

    • @jandetmers1797
      @jandetmers1797 4 года назад

      The things rowling said about wands in general do not seem to apply to the elderwand entirely. You gain the allegiance of the elder wand through strenght but it is not clear, what the allegiance of the elder wand really is about, the most common assumption is, that the elderwand works like a normal wand till you get the true owner, then it becomes truly legendary and "enables" the most powerful wand in existence.
      1. If the elder wand works as assumed he was able to use it against the owner, just not in the "special" way. Grindlewald couldve used his own wand or cast the simple "stun-spell" without a wand, this is most likely possible because Grindlewald is described as one of the most powerful wizards of all time. Grindlewald couldve also known that killing the owner of the elder wand with the elder wand is not possible and thats why he only stunned him ( He doesnt care if he has to kill someone or not, sparing a life doesnt match his style)
      2. Harry did not cast any spell that collided with the deathcurse outgoing from Voldemort, harry also wanted to die, thats the reason the wand did not swap his owner after harry got fried and probably the reason it didnt resist.
      3. Voldemort trusts Narcissa because she is a malfoy + If harry survived he might have feared that harry could potentally kill or harm bellatrix, his most loyal and probably highest ranked servant

    I always believed Gregorovich was never an owner of the elder wand as we don't have the information on the means by which he acquired it. So Grindelwald stealing it from him doesn't make him an owner either. So it is well put in the video that the Elder wand has a strong wizard as a master than just the one who has it in his possession.
    It is strange that there is no history of the Elder Wand being in the possession of a Witch. Always Wizards.
