1. Critical places in the wizarding world

A.Hogwarts

Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry is the British

wizarding school, located in the Scottish Highlands. It

accepts magical students from Great Britain and Ireland

for enrolment. It is a state-owned school funded by the

Ministry of Magic.

The precise location of the school can never be uncovered

because it was rendered Unplottable. To Muggles, the

school looks like an old abandoned castle. Similarly, most

wizarding schools locations are protected in order to

prevent their ways of teaching being revealed, as well as protect the students and schools

themselves from any harm.

Established around the 10th century, Hogwarts is considered to be one of the finest magical

institutions in the Wizarding World, though other notable schools included Beauxbatons

Academy of Magic in France, the Durmstrang Institute in Scandinavia, and Ilvermorny School

of Witchcraft and Wizardry in the United States. Children with magical abilities are enrolled

at birth, and acceptance is confirmed by owl post at age eleven. However, if the child in

question is a Muggle-born, a staff member from the school visits with the child and his or her

family in order to inform them of their magical heritage and the existence of the Wizarding

world.

The school's motto is Draco Dormiens Nunquam Titillandus (Draco Dormiens Nvnqvam

Titillandvs), which, translated from Latin, means "Never tickle a sleeping dragon".

Description:

Hogwarts School, located somewhere in the Highlands of Scotland, consists of the large

Hogwarts Castle and extensive school grounds surrounding it, which include sloping lawns,

flowerbeds, vegetable patches, as well as a loch (called the Black Lake), a large dense forest

(called the Forbidden Forest), several greenhouses and other outbuildings, and a full-size

Quidditch Pitch. One of the castle's towers holds an owlery, which houses all the owls owned

by the school and by students.

The castle is set upon huge rocks above a

magnificent lake, known as the Great Lake. Its

three highest towers are the Astronomy,

Ravenclaw, and Gryffindor Towers. The castle's

142 staircases are known to change position.

The castle is known for its many updates and

changes in layout throughout the years, such as

self-regeneration after the Battle of Hogwarts. It

should be noted that some rooms in the school

tend to "move around," as do the steps on the Grand Staircase. Albus Dumbledore once

noted that even he did not know all of Hogwarts' secrets. The castle has been around for

centuries, and consequently has a long history of ancient magic.

The school has numerous charms and spells on and around it that make it impossible for a

Muggle to see it as the school; rather, they see only ruins and several warnings of danger.

Witches and wizards cannot Apparate or Disapparate in Hogwarts grounds, except for when

the Headmaster lifts the enchantment, whether only in certain areas or for the entire

campus, so as to make the school less vulnerable when it serves the headmaster to allow

Apparition. Electricity and electronic devices are not found at Hogwarts. Due to the high

levels of magic, Muggle substitutes for magic, such as computers, radar and electricity, "go

haywire" around Hogwarts. Radios, however, are an exception as they are not powered by

electricity, but by magic.

-5-

School spirit:

"And be warned: thievery is not tolerated at Hogwarts."

—Hogwarts' rules

Hogwarts' motto is: "Draco dormiens nunquam titillandus". The translation is: Never tickle a

sleeping dragon. Quidditch is possibly the most popular sport at the school, with most of the

student body turning out to watch each match. Hogwarts also has a Frog Choir which sings

at special occasions.

The blazon of the Hogwarts Coat of Arms clockwise from top left: the Gryffindor lion, the

Slytherin serpent, the Ravenclaw eagle, and the Hufflepuff badger, all circling the letter 'H'.

The motto, "draco dormiens nunquam titillandus" to be carried in an escroll beneath the

shield. The way that the house mascots are arranged makes the centre line divide the

houses with warm colours and mammal mascots from the houses with cold colours and

saurian mascots.

Houses:

Gryffindor Hufflepuff Ravenclaw Slytherin

Founded by: Godric Gryffindor Helga Hufflepuff Rowena Ravenclaw Salazar Slytherin

House symbol: Lion Badger Eagle Serpent

House colours: Red and gold Yellow and black Blue and bronze Green and silver

Description of the houses:

Gryffindor: Well known for courage, bravery, daring, nerve, and chivalry.

Hufflepluff: Well known for loyalty, patience, hard work, fair-play, honesty, and tolerance.

Ravenclaw: Values intelligence, wit, cleverness, creativity, and wisdom.

Slytherin: Values ambition, leadership, cunning, determination, and resourcefulness.

2) Hogsmeade

Hogsmeade Village, or simply called Hogsmeade, is the only all-wizarding village in

Britain. It was founded by Hengist of Woodcrod. Since before 1714 (when the 1714 Edict was

passed), Hograwts third years and above have been permitted weekend trips into the village.

Mainly, students frequent the High Street in the village which contains the named specialty

shops and pubs such as Zonko’s Joke Shop and Houneydukes. Otherwise, they wander on to

observe the infamous Shrieking Shack.

Hogsmeade is a picturesque little village of cottages and shops, with enchanted candles

hanging in the trees during the holidays. It is also near the location of the train station used

by the Hogwarts Express.

3) The Forbidden Forest

The Forbidden Forest, also known as the Dark Forest, borders the edges of the

Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry grounds.

The forest is a very old place that holds many secrets and houses many creatures, some dark

and dangerous, others friendly. The trees in the forest are considered ancient, they are

dense and rough looking from years of exposure to the elements.

As the forest's name suggests, it is strictly off limits to students — except in the case

of detention, or Care of Magical Creatures lessons that occasionally take place there. Of

course, with the various dangerous creatures living in the Forest, few students would even

want to venture into it. Black flowers are known to grow in the forest.

-7-

Described by Professor Silvanus Kettleburn as 'massive', the forest is thick with trees, as well

as undergrowth such as knotgrass and thorns but there are paths, brooks, and some

clearings. Off the path the way is almost impassable, although people have moved through it

and creatures as large as Acromantulas and a Ford Anglia have managed to get around.

It is hard to navigate the Forest at night, as there are tree roots and stumps that are barely

visible in near blackness. Also clothes were known to snag on low-slung branches and

brambles. The forest is home to a wide and strange assortment of creatures. Anything wild

and dangerous that needs a place to live is put there. There are areas around the edges of

the forest that are part of the Hogwarts grounds, but which are out of sight of the castle.

Hagrid set up a paddock for Hippogriffs in an area like this and the dragons which had been

brought in for the first task were confined here.

The hut of Gamekeeper Rubeus Hagrid is located at the edge of the Forbidden Forest.

4) Azkaban:

"They don't need walls and water to keep the prisoners in, not when they're trapped

inside their own heads, incapable of a single cheerful thought. Most go mad within weeks."

—Description of Azkaban prison

Azkaban is a fortress on an island in the middle

of the North sea. It serves the magical community of

Great Britain as a prison for convicted criminals.

Azkaban was built in the 15th century and it has been

in use as a detention facility since 1718. Using certain

Charms, Azkaban is hidden from the Muggle world, and

is Unplottable.

-9-

B) Characters in the wizarding world

1) Harry Potter

Harry James Potter was an English half-blood wizard, one of the most famous wizards of modern times. He was the only child and son of James and Lily Potter, both members of the original Order of the Phoenix. Harry's birth was overshadowed by a prophecy, naming either himself or Neville Longbottom as the one with the power to vanquish Lord Voldemort. After half of the prophecy was reported to Voldemort courtesy of Severus Snape, Harry was chosen as the target due to his many similarities with the Dark Lord. This caused the Potter family to go into hiding. Voldemort made his first vain attempt to circumvent the prophecy when Harry was a year and three months old. During this attempt, he murdered Harry's parents as they tried to protect him, but this unsuccessful attempt to kill Harry led to Voldemort's first downfall. This downfall marked the end of the First Wizarding War, and to Harry henceforth being known as the "Boy Who Lived.”

2) Hermione Granger

Hermione Jean Granger was an English

muggle-witch born to Mr and Mrs Granger. At the

age of eleven she learned that she was a witch,

and had been accepted into Hogwarts School of

Witchcraft and Wizardry. She began attending

Hogwarts in 1991 and was Sorted into Gryffindor

House. Hermione possessed a brilliant academic

mind and proved to be a gifted student in almost

every subject that she studied.

Hermione first met Harry Potter and Ron Weasley

aboard the Hogwarts Express, who found her

unfriendly and somewhat of an "insufferable

know-it- all", an impression reinforced for her

eagerness to please the professors and her

constant correct answers. She played a crucial role

in protecting Harry and the prosperity of the

Wizarding World.

-10-

3) Ron Weasley

Ron Weasley was an English pure-blood wizard,

the sixth and youngest son of Arthur and Molly

Weasley. He was also the younger brother of Bill,

Charlie, Percy, Fred, George and the elder brother of

Ginny. Ron and his brothers and sister lived at the

Burrow, on the outskirts of Ottery Street Catchpole.

Ron began attending Hogwarts School of Witchcraft

and Wizardry in 1991 and was Sorted into Gryffindor

House. Together, they faced many challenges during

their adolescence, including keeping the Philosopher’s

Stone from Professor Quirrel, rescuing Ginny from the

Basilisk of theChamber of Secrets, saving Harry's

godfather Sirius Black from the Dementors of Azkaban,

guiding Harry throughout the Triwizard Tournament,

forming Dumbledore’s Army and fighting in numerous

battles of the second Wizarding War.

4) Dumbledore

Professor Albus Percival Wulfric Brian

Dumbledore, was an English half blood wizard, who

was the Defence Against the Dark Arts professor, later

the Transfiguration Professor, and later Headmaster of

Hogwarts. He was a Muggle-supporting wizard

considered to have been the greatest wizard of modern

times, perhaps of all time.

"Albus Dumbledore was never proud or vain; he could

find something to value in anyone, however apparently

insignificant or wretched, and I believe that his early

losses endowed him with great humanity and

sympathy. I shall miss his friendship more than I can

say, but my loss is as nothing compared to the

Wizarding world’s. That he was the most inspiring and

the best loved of all Hogwarts headmasters cannot be in

question. He died as he lived: working always for the

greater good and, to his last hour, as willing to stretch

out a hand to a small boy with dragon pox as he was on the day that I met him."

-11-

5) Minerva McGonagall

Professor Minerva McGonagall,

was a Scottish half-blood witch, the only

daughter of Muggle Robert McGonagall

and witch Isobel Ross. She was sorted

into Gryffindor House (but it took the

sorting hat five and a half minutes to

decide if she was Gryffindor or

Ravenclaw, which made her a Hatstall)

After her education, Minerva worked for

two years at the Ministry of Magic and

later returned to Hogwarts, where she

became the Head of Gryffindor House,

Transfiguration Professor and

concurrently, at differing times, Deputy

Headmistress and Headmistress of

Hogwarts.

McGonagall was also a member of the

Order of the Phoenix. In 1995, she

opposed Dolores Umbridge, the High

Inquisitor of Hogwarts. She also

protected the students from Alecto and

Amycus Carrow from 1997 until 1998, and as part of this resistance movement, fought in

several battles of both wars, including the Battle of the Astronomy Tower and the Battle of

Hogwarts (where she led the resistance against Lord Voldemort).

She was also the one who confronted Severus Snape right before the Battle of Hogwarts,

resulting in him fleeing away from the school.

She survived the Second Wizarding War and continued her job as Headmistress, a title she

still held as of Albus Potter's time at Hogwarts.

6) Severus Snape

Professor Severus Snape was an English half-blood wizard serving as Potions Master,

Defence Against the Dark Art professor, and Headmaster of Hogwarts as well as a member

of the Order of the Phoenix and a Death Eater. His double life played an extremely important

role in both of the Wizarding Wars against Voldemort.

-12-

The relationship between Dumbledore and

Snape would be one of an unusually strong

loyalty, so much so that Snape agreed to kill

Dumbledore upon the latter's own request.

Before Dumbledore's death, Snape

promised to protect the students of

Hogwarts from the Death Eaters, who

would inevitably take control of the magic

as well as the school. Snape later

participated in the Battle of Hogwarts but

was murdered by Lord Voldemort.

7) Dolores Umbridge

Madam Dolores

Jane Umbridge was a

British Half-blood witch

and Ministry of Magic

bureaucrat who served as

Senior Undersecretary to

the Ministry of Magic

under Ministers Cornelius

Fudge, Rufus Scrimgeour,

and Pius Thicknesse.

In 1995 by order of the

Ministry, she was installed

as Defence Against the

Dark Arts Professor at

Hogwarts, and then later Hogwarts High Inquisitor and Headmistress of Hogwarts School of

Witchcraft and Wizardry, after Professor Albus Dumbledore had been fired. In all three of

these positions at Hogwarts she had enormous power over the students, teachers, and the

curriculum, which she wielded despotically. Her time at Hogwarts was characterized by

cruelty and abusive punishments against students, and because of her interfering and

condescending ways, she was widely despised by most students and teachers alike.

-13-

8) Cornelius Fudge

Minister Cornelius Oswald Fudge, was a British

wizard who was the Minister of Magic from 1990-1996.

He thus had complete control of the Ministry of Magic,

the main governing body of the British Wizarding World.

In Fudge's early days as Minister, it was said that he was

not very self-confident, and constantly sent letters to

Albus Dumbledore, asking for advice.

9) Barty Crouch Junior

Bartemius "Barty" Crouch Junior was a pure-blood

wizard and the son of Bartemius Crouch Senior. He joined

Lord Voldemort to become a Death Eater in his teens. He

was the first known escapee of Azkaban prison in its

almost 300 year history.

10) Lord Voldemort

Lord Voldemort (formerly known as Tom Marvolo

Riddle) or alternatively as You-Know-Who, He-Who-Must-Not-

Be-Named, or the Dark Lord, was an English half-blood wizard

considered to have been the most powerful and dangerous

Dark Wizard of all time. He was amongst the greatest wizards

have ever lived, often considered to be the second most

powerful wizard in history, his only superior being Albus

Dumbledore.

-14-

11) Bellatrix Lestrange

Bellatrix Lestrange was an English pure-blood Dark

witch, the eldest daughter of Cygnus and Druella Black

and elder sister of Andromeda Tonks and Narcissa Malfoy.

She was a member of the House of Black, an old wizarding

family and one of the Sacred Twenty Eight. Bellatrix

started her education at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft

and Wizardry in 1962 and was sorted into Slytherin.

After graduating from Hogwarts she became a Death

Eater. She was fanatically loyal to Lord Voldemort and was

among the most dangerous and sadistic of his followers.

12) Draco Malfoy

Draco Lucius Malfoy was a pure-blood wizard and the only son of

Lucius and Narcissa Malfoy. The son of a Death Eater, Draco was raised to

strongly believe in the importance of blood purity. He attended Hogwarts

School of Witchcraft and Wizardry from 1991-1998 and was sorted into

Slytherin House. During his years at Hogwarts, he became friends with

Vincent Crabbe, Gregory Goyle, Pansy Parkinson, and other fellow

Slytherins, but he quickly developed a rivalry with Harry Potter.

He was made a prefect of his house and was a member of the Inquısıtoral

Squad during his fifth year, at the end of which his father was imprisoned

in Azkaban following the Battle of the Department of Mysteries. Lord

Voldemort charged Draco with making up for Lucius's failure, and he

became a Death Eater at age sixteen, but was quickly disillusioned with

the lifestyle.

-15-

13) Lucius Malfoy

Lucius Malfoy was a British pure-blood wizard,

and son of Abraxas Malfoy, husband of Narcissa Black,

the father of Draco Malfoy and the grandfather of

Scorpius Malfoy. Lucius was educated at Hogwarts,

where he was made a prefect in Slytherin House. As an

adult, Lucius was an aristocratic wizard and patriarch

of the Malfoy, believing strongly in notions of blood

purity and the superiority of pure-blood wizards. He

joined the Death Eaters, who shared his views on

blood purity, and participated in the First Wizarding

War.

After Lord Voldemort's first defeat, Lucius managed to

avoid imprisonment by claiming that he had been

acting under the Imperius Curse. He and his family

remained members of the social elite, though Lucius

continued to demonstrate his prejudice.

14) Remus Lupin

Professor Remus John Lupin, also known as Moony, was a

half-blood wizard and the only son of Lyall and Hope Lupin. He

was afflicted with lycanthropy during his childhood, as a result

of Fenrir Greybacks's revenge against Lyall. He attended

Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry from 1971-1978

and was Sorted into Gryffindor House..

After Hogwarts, Remus and his friends joined the original Order

of the Phoenix and fought in the First Wizarding War. However,

Pettigrew betrayed James and Lily Potter to Lord Voldemort a

week after he was made the couples' Secret Keeper. Thus

Remus had lost all of his closest friends in various ways by the end of the First Wizarding

War. The loss of his friends devastated him, though he and Sirius Black later rekindled their

friendship. Remus taught at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry as Professor of

Defence Against the Dark Arts during the 1993-1994 school year. Remus was regarded by

students to be the best Defence teacher they have had thus far. He was also a professor of

Harry Potter (James' son) whom he taught how to conjure a corporeal Patronus, but

resigned after Severus Snape revealed to the public that Remus was a werewolf.

-16-

15) Sirius Black

Sirius Black, also known as Padfoot or Snuffles was an

English pure- blood wizard, the older son of Orion and Walburga

Black, and the brother of Regulus Black. Although he was the

heir of the House of Black, Sirius disagreed with his family's

belief in blood purity and defied tradition when he was Sorted

into Gryffindor House instead of Slytherin at Hogwarts.As Sirius'

relationship with his relatives deteriorated, he gained lifelong

friendship in James Potter and Remus Lupin. Peter Pettigrew was

a friend as well for ten years. The four friends, also known as the

Marauders, joined the Order of the Phoenix to fight against Lord

Voldemort and his Death Eaters during the First Wizarding War.

When Pettigrew betrayed the Potters to Voldemort, Sirius sought to exact revenge on

Pettigrew. However, Pettigrew was able to frame Sirius for his betrayal of the Potters, the

murder of twelve Muggles, and the staged murder of Pettigrew before Sirius could

accomplish this. Sirius was sent to Azkaban, and after twelve years became the only known

person to Escape the prison unassisted by transforming into his Animagus form of a massive

black dog often confused with a "Grim", an omen said to cause death. Sirius exposed

Pettigrew's treachery to his old friend Remus and his godson Harry Potter.

16) Rubeus Hagrid

Professor Rubeus Hagrid was a half-giant half-wizard, son of Mr Hagrid

and the giantess Fridvulfa, and elder half-brother of the giant Grawp. Hagrid

attended Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in 1940 and was sorted

into Gryffindor house. In Hagrid's third year, he was framed by Tom Riddle for

the crime of opening the Chamber of Srecrets and using his pet Acromantula to

attack several Muggle-born students and eventually killing one of them Though

Hagrid's wand was snapped and he was expelled, he was trained as gamekeeper

of Hogwarts and allowed to live on the school grounds at the request of Albus

Dumbledore. As a member of both the original and the re-instated Order of the Phoenix,

Hagrid fought in several battles of the First and the Second Wizarding Wars, including the

Battle of Hogwarts in 1998. By 2017, he was still living, and presumably still teaching and

tending to his gamekeeping duties at Hogwarts, inviting Harry's son Albus Severus for tea

when he joined the school as Harry informed him at the station, just as Hagrid had done to

his father, Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger.

-17-

17) Molly Weasley

Molly Weasley was an English pure-blood witch

and matriarch of the Weasley Family after marrying

Arthur Weasley. She was born into the Preset family

and was sister to Fabian and Gideon Prewett,

members of the original Order of the Phoenix.

Molly was a member of the revived Order of the

Phoenix following the return of Lord Voldemort and

participated in the final battle of the Second

Wizarding War. Her actions during this battle caused her to be known as the witch that

defeated and killed the notorious Death Eater Bellatrix Lestrange.

18) Peter Pettigrew

Peter Pettigrew, usually referred to as Wormtail or

Scabbers was a wizard and the son of Mr and Mrs Pettigrew. He

began attending Hogwarts in 1971 and was sorted into

Gryffindor House after the Sorting Hat pondered over which

house he belonged in for over five minutes, a true Hatstall.

During his years at Hogwarts, he became one of the Marauders;

he was best friends with Sirius Black, James Potter, and Remus

Lupin, and together they created the Marauder’s Map.

During the First Wizarding War, Peter was a member of the

Order of the Phoenix, but became a spy when he was coerced into joining Lord Voldemort.

He was made Secret-Keeper for the Potters when they went into hiding with the use of the

Fidelius Charm, and betrayed James, his wife Lily, and their son Harry to Lord Voldemort.

After Voldemort's fall, he faked his own eath and framed Sirius for betraying James and Lily,

as well as for his own murder and those of the twelve muggles he killed during his escape.

Peter spent twelve years living in his Animagus form as the Weasley family's pet rat,

Scabbers. However, his identity was exposed by Sirius and Remus in 1994, and Pettigrew,

with nowhere else to go, sought protection in returning to the service of Lord Voldemort,

whom he found in the forests of Albania.

Pettigrew played a key role in Voldemort's rebirth and continued to serve him during the

Second Wizarding World.

-18-

19) Alastor Moody

Alastor "Mad-Eye" Moody was a Scottish pure-blood

wizard, considered to be the most famous Auror of all time.

He was a pivotal member of the Order of the Phoenix during

the First and Second Wizarding Wars. Moody served with

distinction during the first conflict, gaining a reputation as a

skillful battler against the Dark Arts and sacrificing an eye, a

leg, and part of his nose during the conflict. As an Auror, he

played a role in the imprisonment of many of the

inhabitants of Azkaban. This activity led to his gaining many

enemies and resulted in his becoming overly-cautious and

paranoid about his security later in life.

In 1994, he agreed to Albus Dumbledore's request to become the new Defence Against the

Dark Arts Professor at Hogwarts, however he was kidnapped just prior to taking up the

position by Barty Crouch Junior, who subsequently disguised himself as Moody as part of a

plan to kidnap Harry Potter on the instructions of Lord Voldemort.

Following his rescue from Barty Crouch, Jr, Moody joined the second Order of the Phoenix

and fought in a number of the Second Wizarding Wars's battles, including the Battle of

Department of Mysteries in 1996, dying during the latter.

20) Neville Longbottom

Neville Longbottom was a pure-blood wizard, the only child and

son of Frank and Alice Longbottom. Neville's parents were well-

respected Aurors and members of the original Order of the Phoenix,

until they were tortured into insanity by Bellatrix and three other Death

Eaters with the Cruciatus Curse when he was about sixteen months old,

leaving Neville to be raised by his grandmother, Augusta Longbottom.

Neville began school at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in

1991 and was sorted into Gryffindor House, along with Harry Potter,

Hermione Granger and Ronald Weasley. Throughout his school years, he was mostly a shy,

clumsy, introverted boy who was constantly being told by his grandmother that he was not

good enough or living up to his parents' accomplishments. However, in his later years, he

showed that he possessed great courage and perseverance: he became an important

member of Dumbledore’s Army, an organisation taught and led by Harry Potter with the

goal of helping other students learn spells to attack and defend themselves.

-19-

21)Cedric Diggory

Cedric was a British wizard who was the son of Amos Diggory

and his wife. He started attending Hogwarts School of Witchcraft

and Wizardry in 1989, and was sorted into the Hufflepuff House.

During his time at school he was a prefect and captained the

Hufflepuff Quidditch team, playing as Seeker. In his sixth year

Cedric put his name forward to compete in the Triwizard

Tournament.

He was selected as the Hogwarts Triwizard Champion and,

although overshadowed in the press by the entry of Harry Potter,

Cedric enjoyed almost overwhelming support from the student

body, and after the first two tasks, tied with Harry for first place.

Cedric and Harry completed the Third Task together. Both took

hold of the Triwizard Cup, which transported them to the Little

Hangleton graveyard. In the graveyard, Cedric was murdered by Peter Pettigrew with the

Killing Curse, on the order of Lord Voldemort.

During the following duel between Harry and Voldemort, Cedric's echo reappeared during

Priori Incantatem, and helped the echoes of Harry's parents, Bertha Jorkins, and Frank Bryce

hold off Voldemort long enough for him to escape.In 2020, Diggory's participation in the

Triwizard Tournament and subsequent death was the subject of Albus Potter and Scorpius

Malfoy's time-travel antics at the request of Amos. They sought to save Cedric and created

an alternate timeline where Cedric survived and became part of the Death Eaters, because

of the humiliation they caused him when they tried to save his life. Cedric's original and

heroic life and death was later restored.

C) Magical Objects

1) Enchanted Coins

In Harry Potter and the Order of Phoenix, Hermione Granger creates fake,

enchanted Galleons or as they call it (enchanted coins) that are used for

communication between members of Dumbledore’s Army. Like real Galleons, the

coins have numerals around the edge. On normal Galleons these serial numbers

signify the goblin who cast the coin; on the enchanted Galleons, the numbers represent the

time and date of the next D.A. meeting, and automatically change to match whatever

numbers Harry Potter sets on his coin. Due to the coins being infused with a Protean Charm,

once Harry Potter alters his, every coin changes to suit. The coins grow hot when the

numbers change to alert the members to look at their coins.

-20-

2) Howler

A Howler is a blood-red letter sent to signify extreme anger or to

convey a message very loudly and publicly. When it is opened, the

sender's voice, which has been magically magnified to a deafening

volume, bellows a message at the recipient and then self-destructs

itself by burning. If it is not opened or there is a delay in opening it, the

letter smolders, explodes violently, and shouts the message out even

louder than normal

3) Deluminator (Put-Outer)

A Deluminator is a device invented by Albus Dumbledore that

resembles a cigarette lighter. It is used to remove or absorb (as

well as return) the light from any light source to provide cover to

the user.

4) The Invisibility Cloak

Within the Wizarding World, the invisibility cloak is used to make

the wearer invisible. All are very rare and expensive, and may be

spun from pelts of the Demiguise, magical herbivores that are

found in the Far East. They can also be ordinary cloaks with a

Disillusionment Charm or a Bedazzlement Hex placed on them.

Over time, these cloaks will lose their invisibility ability,

eventually becoming opaque and vulnerable to penetration by various spells. Harry's cloak,

being one of the three Deathly Hallows, is a true cloak of invisibility, and will retain its

invisibility forever. It is also resistant to most simple spells and charms.

-21-

5) The Elder Wand

The Elder Wand, known throughout history as the Deathstick or

the Wand of Destiny, is an extremely powerful wand made of

elder wood with a core of Thestral tail hair. While most wizards

have heard of supposedly invincible wands in wizarding history,

wand experts and seekers after the Deathly Hallows realize that

these are the same wand, reappearing periodically in the hand

of a new owner.

According to the legend, the wand's allegiance can only be won

by killing its previous owner, and therefore its "bloody trail"

had become "splattered across the pages of wizarding history", making it the Hallow most

easily verified to be a real object.

6) The Resurrection Stone:

The Resurrection Stone allows the holder to bring back deceased

loved ones, in a semi-physical form, and communicate with them.

According to the fairy tale concerning the origin of the Deathly

Hallows, using the Resurrection Stone drove the owner to kill

himself because he brought his late fiancée back from the dead, and

she was very unhappy in the real world for she did not belong there.

7) Foe-Glass

A Foe-Glass is a type of Dark Detector. It looks like a mirror, but

instead of a reflection it shows the enemies of its possessor. The

figures appear as "shadows" but become clearer and more visible

as the enemies get closer to the possessor.

"Oh that's my Foe-Glass. See them out there, skulking around? I'm not really in trouble until I

see the whites of their eyes."

-Alastor Moody

-22-

8) The Marauder’s Map

The Marauder's Map is a magical map of Hogwarts created by Remus Lupin,

Peter Pettigrew, Sirius Black, and James Potter (respectively nicknamed

"Moony", "Wormtail", "Padfoot", and "Prongs") while they were students at

Hogwarts. During this time, they gained extensive knowledge about the school

grounds, such as its various hidden passages, from their frequent night-time

adventures together.

At first glance, the Map is simply a blank piece of parchment; but when the

user points his wand at the Map and says, "I solemnly swear that I am up to no

good", the message "Messrs. Moony, Wormtail, Padfoot and Prongs, purveyors

of aids to magical mischief-makers, are proud to present the Marauder's Map,"

and a detailed layout of Hogwarts appears. Saying, "Mischief managed!" while pointing one's

wand on the parchment returns the map to its original blank state. The map displays the

location of everyone within the castle and its grounds, and includes the location of secret

passageways and instructions on how to access them.

9) Probity Probe

A Probity Probe detects spells of concealment and hidden magical objects. The detector

made its first appearance in Order of the Phoenix at the Ministry of Magic as a thin

golden rod. After Voldemort's return, Probes are used as part of the increased

security at Gringotts as well as for scanning the students of Hogwarts for

Dark objects.

10) Secrecy Sensor

The Secrecy Sensor is a dark detector described as "an object

that looked something like an extra-squiggly, golden television aerial."

It vibrates when it detects concealment and lies.

In Order of the Phoenix, Secrecy Sensors are used at the Atrium

Desk in the Ministry of Magic upon visitors to the government local.

12) Sneakoscope

A Sneakoscope serves as a Dark Arts detector. The device is described as a miniature glass-

spinning top that emits shrill noises in the presence of deception, for instance, when an

untrustworthy person is near or when a deceitful event takes place nearby.

D) Magical Creatures

1) Demetor

These creatures are the guards of Azkaban. They feed on

human happiness and can extract souls with their Dementor's

Kiss. They're shaped like humans covered in dark, hooded

cloaks and their skin resembles that of a grey, rotting body.

Though they are blind, they can sense and feed on positive

feelings, draining their victims of happiness.

"Those who entered to investigate refused afterwards to talk

of what they had found inside, but the least frightening part of

it was that the place was infested with dementors."

—J. K. Rowling on the early history of Azkaban

2) Merperson

Merpeople are sentient magical beasts that live underwater. They are found all

over the world. Their customs and habits are mysterious, and, like the centaurs,

were offered the being status but refused in favour of beast, as they did not

want to be placed in a status with Hags and Vampires. Merpeople can breathe

above the water for a time, but it is unclear if they can ever truly leave their

habitat.

3) Goblin

Goblins are skilled metalworkers who run

Gringotts Wizarding Bank. They are short

and have long noses and long, thin fingers.

Their own type of magic is performed

without a wand (similar to House-Elves). As

they are cunning and clever, it can be

dangerous to trust them.

-24-

4) Acromantula

This iss giant spider, the size of a small elephant, with a black

and grey hairy body, with eight milky-white eyes and valuable

venom. It resides in the Forbidden Forest. They possess a set

of giant pedipalps which they use to eat live prey or their own

dead kin. Their pincers produce a clicking sound when they are agitated or excited. They also

secrete poison when excited. They are sentient, and capable of human speech.

5) Basilisk

These giant, bright green serpents can instantly kill anyone who

looks into their eyes. They have armored skin that can deflect spells

and venomous fangs. They are usually bred by Dark wizards and are

loyal to Parselmouths.

6) Pixie

These electric blue mischief-makers love playing tricks.

They're about eight inches in height and wingless (continuity

issue with the book to movie adaptation). They can fly and

carry the weight of a human in spite of their miniature

stature. Pixies like to wreak havoc and are known to seize

humans by the ears.

7) Werewolf

Once a human is infected by lycanthropy, that human

transforms into a deadly wolf every full moon. Werewolves

can infect others with their bites and it involves a painful

transformation. Additionally, their bites can also kill. The

Wolfsbane Potion, invented by Damocles, allows the werewolf

to keep their human mind during transformation. A werewolf

cannot choose whether or not to transform and will no longer

remember who they are and would kill even their best friend

once transforme. Despite this, they are also able to recall everything they have experienced

throughout their transformation upon reverting to their human form.

-25-

8) Mountain Troll

Mountain trolls are the largest and most vicious breed of troll and they

are to be avoided. They are bald with pale-grey skin and can be up to

12 feet tall, weighing over a ton. However, their whiskers can

sometimes be used as wand cores. They are very strong and have

destructive tendencies.

9)Dragon

The giant, winged, fire-breathing

creatures differ in appearance depending

on type. It is known that the heartstring

of a dragon is one of the core substances

Ollivander uses in his wands. Dragons

reside all over the world, especially in

wilder regions and they are very

dangerous.

10) Giant

A giant is a very large humanoid magical creature which can potentially grow

to approximately twenty five feet tall . they appear to be a large human.

"They're not meant ter live together, giants ... they can't help themselves,

they half kill each other every few weeks."

—Rubeus Hagrid

11) Thestral

These skeletal winged-horses can only be seen by those

who have witnessed death. The thestral can fly and has the power of

invisibility. Although classified as "dangerous" by the Ministry of Magic,

Thestrals can be tamed. A Thestral is also one possible corporeal form of

the Patronus Charm.

-26-

12) Boggart

A Boggart is an amortal shape-shifting non-being that takes on the

form of it's observer's worst fear. Because of their shape-shifting

ability, no one knows what a Boggart looks like when it is alone, as it

changes instantly upon encountering someone. Boggarts would, at

least before the Battle of Hogwarts, very commonly appear as Lord

Voldemort since he represented the worst fear of many wizardkind

13) Centaure

These intelligent half-horse, half-human

creatures tend to keep to themselves,

not caring much about the Wizarding

World. They frequently speak in riddles

and attempt to divine the future from

the movements of the stars and

planets.

14) House Elf

A House-elf (elves) is a magical being which is immensely devoted and loyal

to the one designated as their master.

House-elves serve wizards and witches and are usually found under the

employment of old wizarding families taking residence in elaborate

establishments, like mansions, and must do everything that their masters

command unless they are freed. A house-elf can only be freed when their

master presents them with clothes.

House-elves have their own brand of wandless magic which, despite their small physical size,

is very powerful.

15) Unicorn

The beautiful, pure-white horned horses have

magical powers. The horn, hair and blood all possess

highly magical properties. They are not aggressive,

but should be treated with respect. Unicorns usually

avoid human contact, but have a stronger affinity

with witches rather than wizards.

-27-

16) Phoenix

These faithful, magical birds will burst into flames when their bodies begin to

fail; then they are reborn from the ashes. They tend to have red and gold

feathers and can carry incredibly heavy loads. Additionally, their tears have

healing properties. If phoenixes are domesticated, they are fiercely loyal to

their owners.

"Fascinating creatures, phoenixes. They can carry immensely heavy loads,

their tears have healing powers, and they make highly faithful pets."

—Albus Dumbledore on the nature of Phoenixes

17) Hippogriff

A Hippogriff was a magical beast that had the front legs,

wings, and head of a giant eagle and the body, hind legs and

tail of a horse. It was very similar to another magical

creature, the Griffin, with the horse rear replacing the lion

rear.

"Half horse, half eagle creatures, immensely proud and

extremely dangerous."

—Description of a Hippogriff

18) Ghost

Ghosts are unable to have much physical influence. They are visible,

and appear as a greyish-silver apparition of their former (living)

selves. They pass through solid objects without damaging

themselves or the material, but create disturbances in water, fire

and air. The temperature drops in the immediate vicinity of a ghost.

Their presence can also turn flames blue.

"A ghost, as I trust that you are all aware by now, is the imprint of a

departed soul left upon the earth..."

—Professor Severus Snape

F) Magic Potions

1) Amortentia: Amortentia is a love potion[1] that does not create actual love, but gives the

drinker a powerful obsession and infatuation with the giver of the potion. It is usually either

forced upon someone or covertly given. As a rule of thumb the longer a love potion awaits

consumption, the stronger the effects will be.

2) Confusing Concoction: A Confusing Concoction will cause the drinker to become confused,

distracted and sick. During potions in his third year in Harry Potter and the Prisoner of

Azkaban, Harry has to brew this potion but cannot manage to thicken it. Harry sees Severus

Snape scribble something on a clipboard that "looks suspiciously like a zero.”

3) Draught of Living Death: When a person drinks the Draught of Living Death, they go into

a deep sleep so strong that they appear to be dead, hence the name. It is made from

powdered root of asphodel which is added to an infusion of wormwood.

-30

4) Draught of Peace: The Draught of Peace provides personal comfort, calms anxiety and

soothes agitation.It is a very difficult potion to make as the ingredients have to be added in a

heat of the flames on which it is simmering has to be lowered to exactly the right level for

the right number of minutes before the final ingredient is added.

5) Felix Felicis: Felix Felicis, more commonly known as Liquid Luck, grants whoever drinks it

unusually good luck. The time span of this luck depends on the amount imbibed. Liquid Luck

is one of the hardest potions to make, as noted by Horace Slughorn; "It has to be cooked for

6 months on an extremely complicated formula, and if you make a tiniest mistake, the

consequences are severe". Because of its properties, it is banned in all sporting events,

competitions and examinations.

6) Hiccoughing Potion: Hiccoughing Potion is a simple potion and one of the first that Snape

instructs his first-years to brew in The Philosopher's Stone. The potion, referred to by name,

stops excessive hiccoughing in a matter of seconds.

7) Pepperup Potion: A Pepperup Potion is designed to improve health, relieve coughs and

colds, though it does have one major side effect: it causes steam to dribble from the

patient's ears for several hours afterward. It is also used to quickly elevate body

temperature.

8) Polyjuice Potion: The Polyjuice Potion allows the drinker to assume the appearance of

someone else[4] for an hour or more depending on the quantity. The potion only causes a

physical and voice transformation of the drinker, but clothing is not affected. Its ingredients

include fluxweed, knotgrass, lacewing flies, leeches, powdered Bicorn horn, and shredded

Boomslang skin. The final component is a bit of the individual to be impersonated; strands of

hair are most often used for this purpose.

though it tastes terrible and the process is very slow and extremely painful.

-31-

10) Veritaserum: Veritaserum is a very powerful truth potion. The name "Veritaserum"

derives from the Latin word Veritas, meaning truth. Three drops of this potion are all that is

needed to force anyone to respond to any question with the truth.

G) Wizarding Groups, Organizations and Societies

1) The Order of the Phoenix

"It's a secret society. Dumbledore's in charge, he founded it. It's the people who

fought against You-Know-Who last time."

—Description and history of the Order

The Order of the Phoenix was a secret society founded by Albus Dumbledore to

oppose Lord Voldemort and his Death Eaters. The original Order was created in the 1970s. It

was constructed after Voldemort returned to England from abroad and started his campaign

to take over the Ministry of Magic and persecute Muggle-borns. The Order worked with the

Ministry to oppose the Dark Lord and his followers, and played a crucial role in the First

Wizarding War. Their first victory came in 1981, with Voldemort's first defeat at the hands of

Harry Potter. The victory came with the high cost of many of their members.

The Order disbanded but was reconvened in 1995 after Harry Potter informed Dumbledore

of Lord Voldemort’s return. The Ministry refused to admit that the Dark Lord had returned,

thus the Order alone worked to protect Harry Potter and the prophecy concerning him and

Voldemort in the Department of Mysteries. After an intense battle occurred there on 18

June 1996 between the Order, Dumbledore's Army, and the Death Eaters, the Ministry

finally admitted the truth.

-32-

2) The Ministry of Magic

The Ministry of Magic is the main governing body of the

magical community of Great Britain and possibly also Ireland, with

the intention of preservation of magical law. The Ministry connects

the British government to the Wizarding world. The headquarters

of the Ministry are in Whitehall, in central London, deep

underground.

It is headed by the Minister of Magic. Each Prime Minister of Great

Britain is visited by the Minister for Magic. During the height of the Dark Lord's power, the

Minister for Magic worked with the Muggle Prime Minister to ensure protection for the

Muggle world.

The Ministry of Magic was formed as a

successor to the earlier Wizard’s

Council and came into being in 1717. It

was involved, in some capacity before

its actual formation, in the International

Confederation of Wizards' decision to

enact the Statue of Secrecy in 1692 and

still today takes the responsibility of

enforcing said Statute in the United

Kingdom. The laws against magic-use by underage wizards and against wand use by non-

wizard folk are also enforced by the Ministry, in part to maintain secrecy.

3) The Death Eaters

The Death Eaters was the name given to the most

ardent followers of Lord Voldemort. The group primarily

consisted of wizards and witches who were radical pure-

blood supremacists who practised the Dark Arts with

reckless abandon, malevolence and without regard to or

fear of wizarding law.

Lord Voldemort used this select group of wizards and witches during both the First and

Second Wizarding Wars, employing them as his elite force. They often wore black hoods and

masks with snake-like eye slits to cover their faces. The Death Eaters were considered Lord

Voldemort's inner circle and had the Dark. Mark burned into their left forearms. When

Voldemort touched one of them, each of the Death Eaters felt it, signalling for them to

Apparate to their leader's side.

-33-

H) Horcruxes

"A Horcrux is the word used for an object in which a person has concealed part of

their soul... Well, you split your soul, you see, and hide part of it in an object outside the

body. Then, even if one's body is attacked or destroyed, one cannot die, for part of the soul

remains earthbound and undamaged."

—The nature of Horcruxes

1) Tom Riddle’s Diary

T. M. Riddle's Diary was a simple blank diary, which Tom Riddle

transformed into a Horcrux. The diary was made into a Horcrux in

1943, during Riddle's sixth year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and

Wizardry. It was the first Horcrux he ever made and was used as a

weapon.

Before Lord Voldemort's first defeat in 1981 the diary was passed to

Death Eater Lucius Malfoy. In secret, Malfoy kept the diary before he slipped it, unnoticed,

into Ginny Weasley's cauldron of school supplies at Flourish and Blotts in 1992. The diary

used its dark magical influence to bewitch and force Ginny to re-open the Chamber of

Secrets, but it was destroyed by Harry Potter in 1993 with a Basilisk's Fang.

2) Marvolo Gaunt’s Ring

Marvolo Gaunt's Ring[citation needed] was an heirloom of the House

of Gaunt, descendants of Salazar Slytherin and Cadmus Peverell. It is a

gold ring inset with a black stone (actually the Resurrection Stone, but

neither Marvolo Gaunt nor Lord Voldemort were aware of its

existence) engraved with what Marvolo Gaunt called the Peverell coat

of arms (having come into the Gaunt line from an heiress of the Peverells, not the Slytherin

family), which is actually the symbol of the Deathly Hallows. The signet ring passed through

the male Gaunts, generation to generation, until it was stolen from Morfin Gaunt by Tom

Riddle while Tom framed Morfin for the murders of the Riddle family.

While at Hogwarts, Tom openly wore the ring. He later made the ring into his second

Horcrux. Tom did not enchant the ring right away, as he was seen wearing it while asking

Horace Slughorn about Horcruxes, as seen through Slughorn's memories in a pensieve.

-34-

3) Helga Hufflepuff’s Cup

"Remember the cup's small and gold, it's got a badger engraved on

it, two handles —"

—Harry Potter describing the cup[src]

Hufflepuff's Cup was a magical item created by Helga Hufflepuff,

one of the founders of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and

Wizardry. It was a small golden cup with two finely-wrought

handles with a badger engraved on the side and a few jewels. The badger is the symbol of

Hufflepuff House. The cup also has the dubious distinction of being the only object known to

have been stolen from a vault at Gringotts Wizarding Bank.

4) Salazar Slytherin’s Locket

Slytherin's Locket was a piece of jewellery originally owned by Salazar

Slytherin that became an heirloom of his family. It was a locket of heavy gold with

a serpentine S in glittering green stone inlay on the front. After descending down

from Slytherin, it came into the possession of the Gaunt family, and Marvolo Gaunt

treasured this heirloom of this pure-blood heritage along with his ring heirloom.

After Marvolo and his son Morfin Gaunt were sent to Azkaban, the locket was

stolen by Marvolo's daughter Merope Gaunt, who sold it to Caractacus Burke for

ten Galleons, a price far below what the priceless artefact was truly worth.

5) Rowena Ravenclaw’s Diadem

A tiara said to grant wisdom to the wearer. It was lost for

centuries before it became a Horcrux."

—Description of the Diadem[src]

Ravenclaw's Diadem[1] (also known as the Lost Diadem of

Ravenclaw) was the only known relic once belonging to

Rowena Ravenclaw, the founder of Ravenclaw House at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and

Wizardry. Etched upon its surface was Ravenclaw's famous quote: "Wit beyond measure is

man's greatest treasure."

-35-

It was said to enhance the wisdom of its wearer, which is Ravenclaw House's most treasured

attribute. It had a blue sapphire shaped like an oval. The diadem was later stolen by her

daughter, Helena, a fact Rowena kept a secret from the other founders 'till her death bed.

Rowena Ravenclaw's Diadem, Helga Hufflepuff's Cup and Salazar Slytherin's Locket, made up

three of Lord Voldemort's Horcruxes

6) Nagini

Nagini was a female Maledictus cursed to transform

into a snake. Originating possibly in Indonesia, by

1927 she was a performer at the Circus Arcanus

where she met Credence Barebone and had the ability

then to transform at will. By 1994, Nagini was

seemingly trapped in snake form and belonged to Lord Voldemort, with whom she had a

special bond largely due to becoming a Horcrux, after her master had killed Bertha Jorkins in

1994.

After Voldemort's initial downfall, he used Nagini's venom as one of the ingredients for a

Potion to regain strength, which eventually led to his rebirth in 1995. Later in the same year,

she attacked Arthur Weasley but he managed to survive. During the Second Wizarding War,

she had to be destroyed for Voldemort to finally be defeated. Nagini was killed by Neville

Longbottom with Godric Gryffindor's Sword in 1998 and was the last Horcrux to be

destroyed.

7) Harry Potter

It was created accidentally due to unstable soul and due to the

killing curse backfiring in 1981.

-36-

I) The Escape of Sirius Black

Sirius Black, a wizard who was imprisoned for murder, has

escaped Azkaban Prison. Black is believed to be so dangerous

that even Muggle TV news reports are issuing warnings about a

dangerous fugitive. When Harry storms out of the Dursleys'

house following an argument, he notices an ominous-looking

large black dog watching him in the street. In Diagon Alley,

Harry overhears Arthur and Molly Weasley discussing Sirius

Black, a suspected Voldemort supporter who escaped solely to

find and murder Harry. Later, Mr. Weasley asks a rather

bemused Harry to promise not to look for Black.

Black breaks into Hogwarts on Halloween, but when “the Fat

Lady” bars him from entering the Gryffindor common room he

slashes her portrait and escapes. Shortly after, in Potions class, Draco Malfoy taunts Harry

about never seeking revenge on Sirius Black, though Harry is confused about what he means.

Just before Christmas, Harry overhears a conversation in the Three Broomsticks pub that

Black betrayed James and Lily Potter to Voldemort, and afterward murdered their friend,

Peter Pettigrew, along with twelve Muggle bystanders. Harry is shocked to learn that Black is

also his godfather.

Enraged, Harry vows to avenge his parents' deaths. Soon

after, Black slips into the Gryffindor common room using

Neville Longbottom's lost password list. He shreds Ron's

bed curtains with a knife, but flees when Ron wakes up

screaming. It is as yet unclear why Black attempted to

attack Ron rather than Harry.

However, our timeline in the committee will start right

after the escape of Sirius Black and we will not be

following the events told in the original plot. You, as the

characters, will be determining the upcoming incidents

with your directives and discussions.
