Books and Wands - About Us

Our Mission:

We seek to avenge the massacre of characterization that occurred at the end of th

e Potter

series. And

through expansion,

to promote the virtues and good qualities of the books,

the characters and their actors

wherever and whenever possible.

We are very excited to begin our expansion into the other worlds of popular literature.

We take heart that

these stories mean so much to so many. A change is on the horizon. It

will take courage, selflessness,

friendship and maybe a little magic.

All qualities exemplified in these series. We can learn so much - they can affect so many.

Are you ready to

be the hero you've always read about? You're in the right place.

We are all born in the year of the Boar. Boars are chivalrous, gallant, and loyal. They don't

make many

friends, but when they do they make them for life.

The Boar has tremendous fortitude, great honesty, and an unquenchable thirst for

knowledge.

Everything they do, they do with all their strength.

Symbolism Behind the Coat of Arms

Rilian Holden:

I have a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in

Writing

from

Tisch School of the Arts at New

York

University.

This book series has spoken to

sense of

honor and

loyalty, it has called on

intelligen

and driven

nature, and that is

why, despite the anomalies in Book

strive

to make it make sense.

I believe that the author has a responsibility to

character - then to the fans - and should

n't

sacrifice one to suit the other. Enraged by

it,

we explore in search of the truth.

Charge: Fleur-de-lis

This symbol, traditionally associated with French royalty, represents perfection, light and
life. Military units have used its resemblance to a spearhead to identify power and
strength. Spearheads also symbolize dexterity and nimble wit.

In Latin, this phrase means Cleverness and Friendship.

Inspired by the famous quote from Philosopher's
Stone:

Motto:

Callidus et Amicitia

"Me! Books and cleverness! There are more important
things - friendship and bravery and...Oh, Harry! Be
careful!"

Colors:

Blue     symbolizes loyalty, beauty, serenity, truth and royalty.
Red      symbolizes courage, strength and warriorship.
Gold     symbolizes the elevation of the mind, constancy and generosity.
White   symbolizes purity, innocence, peace and sincerity.

Where dwell the brave at heart;
Their daring, nerve, and chivalry
Set Gryffindors apart.”
