  • Speaks message in caster's voice
  • Secure - can't be intercepted like owls
  • Requires advanced Patronus mastery

The Order of the Phoenix used Patronus messaging during the war:

  • Kingsley sent a warning Patronus to Bill and Fleur's wedding
  • Snape sent messages to Dumbledore
  • Various Order members communicated securely
