One phoenix might be bolder, another less; one more inquisitive, another less; etc. That might have an effect on its compatibility with a given user. | |

| Jan 22, 2014 at 5:10 | comment | added | DVK-on-Ahch-To | (1) It'd be better if you could point to specific interviews/sources/quotes. If you look at other HP related answers, most of them referring to JKR statements have quotes to improve the answer - almost all interviews are on the web. Especially since the two woods you listed contradict previous answer's list. | |

| Oct 6, 2012 at 4:20 | comment | added | Dason | I also would like some clarification on what defines a "type" in you opinion. I also don't think that core material, wood material, and length are the only contributing factors. For instance does the magical creature that the core material was obtained from make a difference? I'm not talking about whether it was a phoenix feather or something else... I'm talking about the fact that it makes a difference which phoenix it was obtained from. | |
