Enjoy!Summary: Even though Voldy can't cast a patronus, I still wondered what it would be if he could. Spoiler alert - it's a bear! In Slavic culture, the bear is a symbol of power. Its true name is unknown because if you said it, the bear would be summoned to you. Sound familiar? The bear is also the opposite of the stag because the stag was considered pure nature, and Voldemort's patronus is not. The patronus comes from the soul. If Voldemort's soul is cracked and tainted by horcruxes, nothing that comes from it will be nature. Finally, the Slavic god Veles is a rival of Perun. Veles can turn into a bear, and Perun is the god of lightning. A.K.A., Harry Potter himself.
