I have a very strange question.  Would it be possible for a patronus to take the shape of a person, a human.  If a person is evil, maybe Vader Or maybe a wookie.  A wookie is not a human.  Sorry.  I'm watching Star Wars and reading this thread at the same time.  Some strange questions are going through my mind at the moment.

Is it necessary for the person to see another person's patronus for their patronus to be influenced by it and to change? I am just thinking about whole Snape/Lily thing and wondering if he ever saw her patronus? In fact do we even know (and I just forgot?) that Lily's Patronus was a Doe in the first place? I mean I know she wanted Stag and Doe to match, but this is a symbolism of Harry and Snape patronuses we know, not Lily and James' ones. I mean I think it is also to show the reader without saying much that they completed each other and were well matched, Lily and James I mean, but did it show in their own patronuses as well? Alla
