🪄 Only a minority of trees can produce wand quality wood, just as only a minority of humans can produce quality magic. (Bowtruckle nests are a telltale sign of usable wood, but they do not nest in all usable tree species.) Formerly a somewhat guarded secret passed down through years of experience from wandmaking masters to apprentices, the most common usable wand woods are now fairly public knowledge. However, pairing the right wood with the right owner (and the right core) is a skill that still only comes with long practice and study of wandlore.
of wand wood producing trees and a sampling of some of their species in each wand region of the world. The notes on wand traits, wand specialties, and owner traits are only general notes, and individual wands may differ especially after being paired with certain cores. (The
symbol in the species sampling indicates that this species is endemic, found only in this region.)
