The Valcore was a giant humanoid magical creature with a large head covered in blunt horns, thin arms, and thick legs.[1]
Description[]
It was presumably quite strong, as it was depicted as being capable of ripping a full-grown tree out of the ground and wielding it like a club, and probably also hostile, given its depiction of fighting against a human knight.[1]
History[]
This creature was covered in The Monster Book of Monsters.[1] It was thus part of the third-year Care of Magical Creatures curriculum at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.[1]
In the 1990–1991 school year, while doing research on magical creatures to try to identify the creature that had attacked Dolores Umbridge and Ismelda Murk in Hogsmeade, Jacob's sibling and Liz Tuttle read about Valcores.[2]
