Does a Patronus HAVE to be an animal? Cause if it does, it'd probably be a Gopher... since I've got some mean teeth and like to stay in my hole all the time. I can't say it would be very honorable, it might just make the Dementors forget about me though, seeing as my life is already messed up, they might actually feel pity on me and spit a couple of souls out for me instead of sucking mine out. But if it could be something I'd really like it to be (humanoid as well) It'd definitely have to be my crazy Aunt Virginia. She would scare the living daylights out of any Dementor who tried coming near me, since she's extremely demented herself, like REALLY demented. That capped "REALLY" doesn't even cover how demented she is. Someone would probably mistake her for a dementor and then realize "oh damn, she's way scarier."
