<snip> I, like many others, I'm sure, am waiting for the
metamorphmagus thing to be sprung on us by surprise in the next book
or two. Have Tonks 
masquerading as something/someone else, then suddenly revealing herself. 
Of course, it could also be that one of the characters we've already met 
is a metamorphmagus who is masquerading as Tonks....


Carol:
Which brings up a question I have about Tonks. so far we've only seen
her change her hair or her nose or disguise herself (twice) as an
older woman. Could she change herself to look like a real person that
she knows who's significantly different from her in some way--say, a
child or a man? Could she turn into an animal without having to train
herself to do so as the animagi did? Could she even, as Hannah Abbott
fearfully suggested about Sirius Black, turn herself into a potted
plant? If she faces the Death Eaters in some sort of battle, could she
use her inborn talent against them in some way? I don't see why we'd
need another metamorphagus when we already have Tonks. I just want to
see her do something more interesting (and significant)than entertain
Ginny and Hermione by switching noses during lunch.
