It took half hour of searching in rare reserves to find suitable material to channelize Hadrian's powers. Horned Serpent horn, Phoenix feather and Thestral tail hair. Normally his wands have one or two core.

Rolph: "Curious. This is first time he found someone who require three material to make compatible wand not to mention three rarest material which are opposite to each other normally don't work together. Normally wands require only one core, in some cases two but never three."
Hadrian just nodded.
Rolph: "Wand with Thestral tail hair cannot be fully mastered by winning. Only one known wand with this powerful core is Elder wand. It can be only mastered who is able to face death. Wand with Horned Serpent horn is exceptionally powerful and sensitive to parsel tongue. It can warn its owner of danger by emitting a low musical tone. And this Phoenix feather is from Albus Dumbledore's Phonix (Fawkes). She has given only two feathers so far. One is in Dark Lord's wand. No doubt this is most powerful wand with ability to create or destroy wizarding world. This is literally death stick with Fire of Light and Darkness of night."
Hadrian: "So Dark Lord also bought wand from you?"
Rolph: "No he bought it from my cousin Ollivander. We keep our rare collection in common room that is connected to both of our shop. This way it's easy to cater to rare customers like yourself and also save our funds as rare materials are hard to achieve"
Hadrian with raised eyebrow: "So Oliver will find out details of my wand?"
Rolph with fear in his eyes: "Yes but just about wand not about wand user. As we have to maintain certain stocks of rare items. Rest assured my Lord your identity will remain safe with us. Our lips are sealed"
Hadrian with icy glare: "Be true to your word or else consequences will be harsh" 
Rolph just nodded.
Hadrian handed him money took his wand and left, Rolph breathed in relief.

Hadrian was about to go back to Diagon alley when he felt very strong pull from nearby pet shop. He went inside the shop out of curiosity. In the far corner there lay very small snake.
Shopkeeper came to stop Hadrian: "Don't go near him. He has killed few of my employees and many hunter. He just looks nice but he is highly dangerous"
Snake: "Don't listen to this dreadful piece of shit. Dumb Humans can't even differentiate gender. Don't stop child. You smell so good. I want to take bit of you"
Hadrian looked towards snake with big grin and hissed: "I can take you with me if you promise to not bit me or any human till I give permission to do so"
Snake stared for a moment : "A speaker. You are no fun. But I agree to your terms please just take me away from this shit hole"
Shopkeeper with wide eyes: "You are parsel mouth"
Hadrian with icy death glare: "That's none of your business. I want this snake and some mice to feed her"
The man nodded. Hadrian paid him and left.
Hadrian: "What type of snake are you? The shopkeeper doesn't give me any detail. As demon prince I mostly know about all dark creatures but I can't figure out about you"
Snake with smug look: "Of course you have to be special to connect to me. I am rarest of rare. I am hybrid. I am Vipersilisk. Hybrid of most venomous muggle world snake Viper and Ruthless magical world snake Basilisk."
Hadrian with smile: "Interesting tell me more about your type"
Snake with proud hisses: "My Poison can kill within seconds, I can also turn off my poison and bite to make someone bleed to death. I can petrify like Basilisk if I wish but mostly I keep my eyelid close. I am faster than most snakes. I can jump high and long which may look like I am flying. I can throw scent which can lure my prey like magical Veela."
Hadrian: "Indeed unique bred you are. What's your name?"
Snake: "I don't have one. Master choose it for me. But no crap please."
Hadrian: "How about Amara?"
Snake: "hmm. I can live with it"
Hadrian rolled his eyes: "How old are you amara?"
Amara: "I am two"
Hadrian:"So will you be huge like Basilisk or normal length like Viper with age?"
Amara:"I will be like Viper"
Hadrian: "Good. We can't form bond till you are five. I hope you know you are my familiar. Now some ground rules apart from one you already agreed. No crap talks with me or I will put you in cage. I may buy Owl for delivering my mails so behave with her, no biting. I will be going in Hogwarts from this year. As soon as we settle I will find suitable place for you. But You have to stay hidden as it's not allowed to bring snake to castle."
Amara: "Ok I will behave. But I am hungry can you feed me juicy mice?"
Hadrian smiled: "Of course"

When he reached Diagon Alley he hide his snake in coat and started acting lost. Hagrid came running: "Where were you? I was searching for you everywhere. I thought someone might have hurt you. It's not safe here"
Hadrian: "I am fine. After getting wand I came out to look for you and just got lost"
Hagrid: "I have your books and ropes with me. I bought you owl as late birthday present."
Hadrian looked at beautiful snowy owl, he was impressed by Hagrid's gift.
Hadrian with child like curiosity: "Whats her name?"
Hagrid smiled: "It's for you to decide. After all it's your owl"
Hadrian looked at owl and said: "How about Hedwig?"
The owl hooted as if approving the choice. Hadrian blinked at owl's attitude and smiled: "Hedwig it is then"
Hagrid: "Ok then I think we are done for today. Do you need anything else?"
Hadrian shook his head to say no.
Hagrid: "Alright then let's go back to your home"

After summer lessons of extreme meditation, physical training and training with his wand - thanks to his without trace wand and Bella's charmed practice room which makes immune to track raw magical energy - Hadrian was ready for Hogwarts.
