20 Questions (Vol. VI)

I've found this game works well on my family forum, and I think it might be fun here too.

For anyone unfamiliar with the game, it works like this:

Basic rules:
1. Someone thinks of something--a person, place or thing (in this case, HP related, of course).
2. Others ask "yes" or "no" questions to gain information about the subject.
3. Only 20 questions are allowed. If it isn't guessed within the 20 questions, that person gets another turn. If it is guessed, the person who guessed it goes next.

The rules may need to be modified as we adapt the game for this forum. Some things we might want to consider are:
1. Should things like spells, book titles, etc. be allowed as they may be very difficult to identify within a 20 question limit?
2. Should we increase the number of questions to allow for very obscure things?

Tip: I've found it most helpful if, when asking a question, you number your question, so it's easier to keep track of how many questions have been asked.

So I will start the game off, and see if anyone's interested in playing. I'm thinking of something HP related, and you have 20 questions to identify what I'm thinking of. Let the questioning begin!

Thanks, PAH! BTW, how are you doing these days?

Ready, set........I am ready for the questions to begin. So, GO!

Thanks, Choices!

Glad you're doing okay, PAH.

Glad you're well, PAH. We don't hear much from you these days. It's good to know you haven't left us.

Thanks for the questions.........

Thanks, Shepherdess. Though I wasn't much of a chatter, anyway. And as long as Verity and Mona still want to play Five Words, I'll pop in.

Congratulations Soli - it is the Sirius Black wanted poster....."Have you seen this wizard?" Well done and the baton is passed to you.

Whoa! That was fast. I just remembered seeing that poster on a website I visited a few days ago, and it popped into my brain! Okay ... I'll have to think of something. I'll try to have it by tonight or first thing tomorrow morning. Thanks, Choices!

Okay, I've checked the archives, and I think I'm in "fresh territory." Let the guessing begin!

1. Is it an object?
