Backstory
Instead of finding an expertise in one creature, I decided to research all different sorts. Inspired by my household copy of 'Magical Beasts and Where to Find Them', as a child I would set about trying to tempt Cornish Pixies into our living room (much to my mother's horror.) One of my sisters almost lost her toes to a flesh-eating slug one night when it escaped.Though, despite all of these intruiging creatures, I now keep these small muggle rodents called Guinea Pigs. Sometimes it's nice to ground yourself with a furry rodent.
Despite my skill for transfiguration, I set about researching all of the different Magical Creatures that I could observe, protect or capture. Though this may not always end well, and I may have a few singed hairs, scars and avoided memories, I truly believe in the conservation of the creatures which we try so hard to protect muggles from, or even protect from muggles.
Did you know an Abraxan only drinks single-malt whiskey? Or that Kappa became part of Japanese Folklores?
I may not know all of the details, but when I make an effort to know the unknown (guess that's why I was pretty easily placed in Ravenclaw) and constantly learn more about the fascinating world of magical (and sometimes not magical) creatures.
