Much the same as most people here, if a bit less methodical: 1. Read through the application and note the characteristics that are mentioned, and those that shine through in the writing 2. Choose the element the animagus is most likely to inhabit, and set other parameters (big/small, predator/herbivore, mammal/other) 3. Look up which animals within the set parameters best encompass the characteristics given, and narrow it down to one choice. I tend to do this in my head; I'm rubbish at writing things down.
