    How Does This Magical Wheel Work?

    At its core, the Harry Potter wheel is a random name picker. You press the "SPIN" button, the wheel whirls with a satisfying sound, and moments later, it lands on a single character.

    But the real magic lies in its customization and user-friendly features. You have complete control over who appears on the wheel, how it looks, and what happens after a character is chosen. It’s designed to be your personal, interactive portal to the wizarding world.

    Let's explore the controls and functions that make this tool so powerful.

    Your Wand and Spellbook: The Controls

    Navigating the tool is as easy as saying "Wingardium Leviosa." Here’s a breakdown of the main controls you’ll be using.

    The Heart of the Magic: The Spin Button

    This one is pretty straightforward! The big, round "SPIN" button sits right in the middle of the wheel. Give it a click, and the wheel will begin its spin, complete with sound effects to build the anticipation. Once it stops, a pop-up modal will announce the winner, accompanied by a burst of celebratory confetti. You can’t miss it!

    The Sorting Hat: Choosing Your Category

    Don't want to choose from all 80+ characters at once? No problem! The "Character Category" section is your very own Sorting Hat. Here you can filter the wheel to show only the characters you're interested in. You'll find buttons for:

    • All Characters: The default mode, including everyone from the lists above.
    • Gryffindor: Fills the wheel with only the brave lions of Gryffindor.
    • Slytherin: For when you want to focus on the cunning and ambitious.
    • Hufflepuff: Populates the wheel with loyal and just Hufflepuffs.
    • Ravenclaw: Perfect for selecting from the wise and witty members of Ravenclaw.

    And what about the other groups? Just click the More button! A dropdown menu will appear, giving you access to:

    • Hogwarts Staff
    • Order of the Phoenix
    • Death Eaters

    When you select a category, the wheel and the list below it will instantly update with the corresponding characters. The "Current Mode" display will also confirm which group you’ve selected.

    The List of Contenders

    Below the category buttons, you'll find a box that lists every single character currently active on the wheel. This is a great way to see at a glance who is in the running. If you have a long list, you can scroll through it. This list is not just for viewing—it's fully interactive.

    Your Personal Roster: Adding & Removing

    This is where the random character wheel becomes your wheel.

    • Add a Character: At the bottom, there's an input box that says, "Add custom character..." Type any name you want—maybe a character we missed, or even your own name—and click the "Add" button. They will instantly be added to the wheel!
    • Remove a Character: See the little '×' next to each name in the list? Click it to remove that character from the wheel. This is perfect for narrowing down the options.
    • Edit a Character: You can even click on a character's name in the list to edit it directly. Made a typo? Just fix it and click away. The wheel will update in real-time.

    When you add, remove, or edit any character, the wheel automatically switches to "Custom Mode." This tells you that you're no longer using one of the pre-set categories but are working with your own personalized list.

    Master Your Spells: Advanced Features

    Ready for some advanced magic? The row of five small, round buttons at the top of the controls section gives you even more power. Think of them as special charms to manage your wheel.

    Tidy Up Your List

    • Sort (A-Z): Click this button to instantly sort the current list of characters on the wheel alphabetically. It’s perfect for finding names quickly in a long custom list.
    • Shuffle: Feeling chaotic? The shuffle button will randomize the order of the characters in the list and on the wheel. It doesn’t change who is chosen, but it’s a fun way to mix things up.

    The Pensieve: Spin History

    Curious about which characters have been chosen before? The history button opens a "Spin History" modal. It shows you a numbered list of your most recent spin results. You can also clear this history with a single click. It's a fantastic feature for keeping track of a long game or a series of prompts.

    The Room of Requirement: Color Settings

    This is one of the coolest features! The settings button opens the "Color Palette Settings." You can change the entire look and feel of the wheel.

    While there are several beautiful palettes like "Vibrant" and "Pastel," the default is a custom-made "Hogwarts Houses" palette. It uses the iconic red & gold, green & silver, blue & bronze, and yellow & black, making the wheel feel truly authentic.

    Vanish Them All: The Clear Button

    To the right of the "Current Characters on Wheel" title, there's a small trash can icon. This is your "Clear All" button. If you've created a large custom list and want to start fresh, one click on this button will wipe the wheel clean, allowing you to select a new category or start building a new list from scratch.

    The Ultimate Reset

    Made a lot of changes and just want to go back to how it was at the very beginning? The "Reset All" button is your go-to. It will reset everything: the character list will go back to the "All Characters" default, the color palette will return to the Hogwarts theme, and your spin history and spin count will be cleared.

    Fun Ways to Use the Harry Potter Wheel

    So, you know how to use the tool. But what can you do with it? Here are some ideas to get your creative cauldron bubbling.

    Role-Playing and Fan Fiction

    Stuck on who to make the main character of your next fan fiction? Let the harry potter characters wheel decide for you! Spin it to find your protagonist, antagonist, or even a random side character to make a surprise appearance. You can even use the "Eliminate Result" feature after each spin to ensure you don't pick the same character twice for your story's cast.

    Trivia and Quizzes

    Turn trivia night into an interactive game. Spin the wheel to get one of the random harry potter characters. The person whose turn it is must state a fact about that character. Or, you can prepare questions beforehand and use the wheel to select the topic. For example, if it lands on "Severus Snape," your question could be, "What is the name of the curse Snape invented?"

    Debates and "What Ifs"

    Settle those classic fan debates once and for all. Spin the wheel twice. "Who would win in a duel: Bellatrix Lestrange or Minerva McGonagall?" "Who was a better mentor: Dumbledore or Lupin?" The wheel provides the prompts, you provide the passionate arguments.

    Art and Drawing Prompts

    If you're an artist, this is your new best friend. Spin the wheel for a character and start sketching! Challenge yourself by spinning it twice and drawing the two characters interacting. Imagine a drawing of Gilderoy Lockhart trying to give Fenrir Greyback a makeover. The possibilities are hilarious and endless.
