The Runespoor was a three-headed snake native to Burkina Faso in Africa. Runespoors are commonly six to seven feet long, with orange and black stripes. Since they were very easy to spot, the Burkina Faso Ministry of Magic had to make several forests Unplottable for the Runespoor's use. The Runespoor is a possible corporeal form of the Patronus Charm. In the runic alphabet, the three heads of the Runespoor are used to represent the number three.
