We have the Sorting Hat to tell us what house we are in, can pick out your very own wand at Ollivanders and now there’s a new official quiz on Pottermore that lets you figure out your own Patronus!
The news came from J.K Rowling‘s Twitter, which also revealed that her Patronus is a Heron. Check out the video of it in action:

The quiz itself is a pretty simple one, but it gives you multiple choices and you’re required to pick from a few words as they appear on screen.
In case you don’t remember (or don’t know) what a Patronus is, it’s described as “a kind of positive force, projection of the very things the Dementor feeds upon – hope, happiness, the desire to survive…”
Like the Sorting Hat and Illvermony house quizzes, your results are final and can be viewed from your Pottermore profile. I got a Black Stallion, and got sorted Slytherin (don’t ask, I used to be a Ravenclaw). There’s quite a variety of Patronuses that you could possibly get, and not necessarily what you expect!
Just hop on to your Pottermore account, or register one to try it out!
