A powerful yet chaotic wood, Padauk favors those who are assertive, strong-willed, and stubborn. The magic of this wood is dynamic, constantly changing. It would, however, be an amazing wood for healing magic if one could learn to harness its temperamental nature. Padauk wood often makes a wand that possesses truly lethal power, whatever the core, but if teamed with Phoenix feather, the wand ought never to be teamed with a wizard without exceptional self-control and strength of mind, and makes a dangerous wand in the wrong hands.
