Sometimes I'm nice....
Sometimes I'm not.
Sometimes I send you running for the chamber pot.

Once, I fooled a famous wizard.....
He has not forgot.
But beginning wizards like me,
sometimes quite a lot.

Can you guess my name?


Good guess, but Moaning Myrtle is not the answer I seek. Potty Games - Riddles Only (Vol. II) - Page 8 2752390508

Hint: Even though I have a name, I am not a person, but a thing.

Guessed: Gilderoy Lockhart, one of the Weasley Twins, Moaning Myrtle

Thanks, PAH! Potty Games - Riddles Only (Vol. II) - Page 8 2752390508

The new riddle:

Interested in the arcane?
We have powers hard to explain.
Symbols of a recondite force,
Mysterious we are, of course.
Pleasure at home, useful at work -
Please, refrain from going berserk.

An open mind or a mad mind?
Unconventionally inclined?
We may be just odd and strange -
We can make for a nice change.
We can ignore any spell.
We can make him proud as well.

Who are we?


Enjoy!

Thanks, Choices and Verity, for starting the guesses! Potty Games - Riddles Only (Vol. II) - Page 8 2752390508 The answer, however, is neither Mr. Borgin and Mr. Burke, nor the St. Mungo's Healers.

In this post, I've made a slight correction in the riddle.

Great guesses, Lady Arabella, Potty Games - Riddles Only (Vol. II) - Page 8 2752390508 but the answer is neither the Unspeakables in the Department of Mysteries (although the answer is a rather silent group, too!), nor a Time-Turner.

You have earned a hint! Keep guessing, please. Potty Games - Riddles Only (Vol. II) - Page 8 464751818

Magical portraits?

BTW Julia, I meant to say that I enjoyed your explanation of your last riddle, and it wasn't a bad pun at all. It was actually really clever, just too clever for most of us! Potty Games - Riddles Only (Vol. II) - Page 8 2752390508 Potty Games - Riddles Only (Vol. II) - Page 8 464751818

Great new guesses, Lady Arabella and Verity, but the answer is not House Elves or magical portraits. Potty Games - Riddles Only (Vol. II) - Page 8 2752390508

OK, thinking as a witch, could the riddle describe Muggles? All that eckeltricity stuff could be 'powers hard to explain' and many Muggles are definitely odd and strange. Potty Games - Riddles Only (Vol. II) - Page 8 2752390508
