The Table of Thirteen
We all know that Professor Sybil Trelawney has great importance in Harry Potter series. She was the divination teacher of Hogwarts and was the one who predicted the prophecy stating , " Neither can live while the other survives. "
Someone familar with the HP movies and books will know that most students ( teachers also ) believe Trelawney is a fraud and has no special power to see future. Very few people believe her words also. This belief also strengthens when one gets to know that Trelawney can only predict CORRECTLY when she enters in a state of trance.
However , there's a big prediction Trelawney did which was not stated in her subconscious condition but in an usual condition in which she always try to show others her power of " Inner-Eye ".
Let us go into that prediction.
In the Book " Harry Potter And The Prisoner Of Azkaban ", we see that on Christmas Harry, Ron and Hermione came to have their lunch on the Great Hall of Hogwarts and saw all the tables had been moved against the wall. This was due to the fact that almost all students go back to their homes in christmas holidays. Only one table stood in the middle of the room. Some teachers and students sat together around the table.
Dumbledor invited the trio to join them and enjoy the Christmas lunch. Soon, Professor Sybil Trelawney made her entrace and was asked by Dumbledor to join them. But Trelawney refused this by saying :
" If i join the table, we shall be thirteen ! Nothing could be more unlucky ! Never forget that when thirteen dine together , the first to rise will be the first to die ! "
Others , however , thinking this is also one of the many negative predictions Trelawney loved to make , dismissed her claim and made her join the table.
Now, before we go futher , let's see the members surrounding the Table :
1. Harry Potter 2. Ron Weasley 3. Hermione Granger 4. Albus Dumbledor 5. Professor McGonagol 6. Professor Flitwick 7. Professor Sprout 8. Severus Snape 9. Filch the caretaker 10 & 11. Two first year students 12. A Slytherin fifth year student 13. Professor Trelawney
We can see that the table consists of thirteen people . Now, the first one to rise were Ron and Harry together. Thus one gets sure it was another fake prediction of Trelawney merely showing off her knowledge which almost all disbelieves.
However , Beside the table , there was also Scabbers , Ron's mouse who was a man ( Peter Pettigrew , which was revealed in the end of the book ). But at that time it was not known so Trelawney counted only 12 people .
But this means the table was already of thirteen when Trelawney arrived . And then, the first one to rise from that table was Albus Dumbledor , who went to greet Trelawney.
And among the thirteen people , Dumbledor died first. A mere co-incidence? Or the proof that Trelawney was not fully an empty person ? Readers decide.
N.B :-
Trelawneys ancestor was famous seer Cassandra. The name Cassandra is famous in Greek Mythology. In Greek Mythology , Cassandra was the princess of Troy. God Apollo fell in love with Cassandra . Cassandra asked Apollo that if she gets the power to see future , she will love him. Mad to get the love of Cassandra , Apollo granted her wish. But upon getting the power , Cassandra rejected Apollo to love him. Feeling betrayed by this treachery , Apollo cursed Cassandra saying that although she can see future , nobody will believe her and everyone will think her as a fraud. Later , Cassandra Predicted correctly about the destruction of Troy and how it can come but noone listened to her. Troy was destroyed after some days the way Cassandra predicted.
This is another brilliant nomenclature of Rowling who injected this thing very passively in painting Sybil Trelawney and her powers.

Menu Visit home page WRITING BY J.K. ROWLING The Quill of Acceptance and The Book of Admittance By J.K. Rowling In a small locked tower, never visited by any student at Hogwarts, sits an ancient book that has not been touched by human hands since the four founders placed it there on completion of the castle. Beside the book, which is bound in peeling black dragon-hide, stands a small silver inkpot and from this protrudes a long, faded quill. These are the Quill of Acceptance and the Book of Admittance and they constitute the only process by which students are selected for Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
If anybody understands what powerful and long-lasting magic causes this book and quill to behave as they do, nobody has ever confessed to it, doubtless because (as Albus Dumbledore once sighed) it saves the staff tedious explanations to parents who are furious that their children have not been selected for Hogwarts. The Book and Quill’s decision is final and no child has ever been admitted whose name has not first been inscribed on the book’s yellowing pages.
At the precise moment that a child first exhibits signs of magic, the Quill, which is believed to have been taken from an Augurey, floats up out of its inkpot and attempts to inscribe the name of that child upon the pages of the Book (Augurey feathers are known to repel ink and the inkpot is empty; nobody has ever managed to analyse precisely what the silvery fluid flowing from the enchanted Quill is).
Those few who have observed the process (several headmasters and headmistresses have enjoyed spending quiet hours in the Book and Quill’s tower, hoping to catch them in action) agree that the Quill might be judged more lenient than the Book. A mere whiff of magic suffices for the Quill. The Book, however, will often snap shut, refusing to be written upon until it receives sufficiently dramatic evidence of magical ability.
Thus, the very moment that Neville Longbottom was born, the Quill attempted to write his name and was refused by the Book, which snapped shut. Even the midwife who attended Alice Longbottom had failed to notice that Neville managed to shift his blankets more snugly over himself moments after birth, assuming that his father had tucked the baby in more securely. Neville’s family persistently missed faint signs of magic in him and not until he was eight years old did either his disappointed great aunts and uncles, or the old stickler of a Book, accept that he was truly a wizard, when he survived a fall that should have killed him.
In fact, the Book’s sternness has a purpose: its track record in keeping Squibs out of Hogwarts is perfect. Non-magic children born to witches and wizards occasionally have some small, residual aura of magic about them due to their parents, but once their parents’ magic has worn off them it becomes clear that they will never have the ability to perform spells. The Quill’s sensitivity, coupled with the Book’s implacability, have never yet made a mistake.

RonWeasley WB F2 RonWeasleyAtBreakfastWithHermioneGrangerAndHarryPotter Still 100615 Land FEATURE How the wizarding world sometimes gave us some unrealistic expectations Signature_Logo_WizardingWorld Written by The Wizarding World Team Published on Dec 3rd 2019 Even though we never received a letter from Hogwarts, we still couldn’t help comparing our own school experiences to those of Harry and his friends... Teachers Perhaps you were lucky enough to have wonderful teachers, but Albus Dumbledore would be a hard act for any head teacher to follow. His wisdom, wit and protectiveness over his students was second to none.
Remember that time in Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince when Harry accused Dumbledore of abandoning the school? His angry reply said it all: ‘Please do not suggest that I do not take the safety of my students seriously.’
Then there was Remus Lupin who gave Harry private tuition so he could fight off Dementors. What better gift could a teacher give than a Patronus? ‘A pure, protective magical concentration of happiness and hope.’ Meanwhile, in Muggle life, extra maths tuition was never going to be quite as exciting... however excellent the teacher.
Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire In this image:
Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire Adventures Reading about Hogwarts had us imagining we’d be solving at least one mystery a term during our own school years. Think again! No priceless magical objects hidden down the third-floor science corridor, no secret chamber under the sports hall, no school heirlooms scattered across the country in need of destruction. Nothing. The biggest mystery some of us had to face at school was why we weren’t allowed to write about the Harry Potter books in our English exams... or was that just us?
P.E. We thought physical education or games or sport – whatever your school called it – wouldn’t be so different to Quidditch. How very wrong we were. It turns out you can’t really compare Quidditch to any sport you might try at school. Why? Well, clearly it’s the best sport ever invented. Flying broomsticks, spectacular dives, signature moves (we’d all love a go at a Wronski Feint) and Quidditch heroes worthy of admiration – Viktor Krum, Gwenog Jones, Charlie Weasley. Not to mention that Quidditch teams are mixed, so it’s a sport that heroes equality.
P.E.’s only saving grace perhaps was that it was timetabled to end; in Quidditch, if you had a particularly slow Seeker, the game could go on for days. In fact, the record is six months – that’s a really long P.E. lesson.
School dances When our own school dances, discos, and graduation balls came around, we’re sure we weren’t alone in imagining some version of the Yule Ball ¬– that glittering winter spectacular that was held in honour of the Triwizard Tournament in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. Perhaps you too had unrealistic expectations about the décor and pictured your school hall decked out ‘in sparkling silver frost, with hundreds of garlands of mistletoe and ivy crossing the starry black ceiling’ with your classmates in elegant dress robes. And don’t forget the live fairies!
How our expectations crashed through the floor when everyone turned up in jeans, jumped up and down to the music, and the only refreshments were bowls of ready salted crisps. We’d rather have braved taking Cormac McLaggen to Slughorn’s Christmas party.
School meals Much to our disappointment, it turned out that cafeteria food couldn’t really compete with Hogwarts feasts. From the way the food just magically appeared on the tables, to the sheer number of choices, our own Muggle school food didn’t stand a chance. Treacle tarts, Yorkshire puddings, flaming Christmas puddings, platters of fat chipolatas, tureens of buttered peas – to name a few delights. At Harry’s first ever banquet ‘He had never seen so many things he liked to eat on one table’. If you can say the same about your school food, then we are Slytherin green with jealousy.
Trouble Is it us or did Harry, Ron and Hermione always manage to avoid really serious trouble? Imagine if you had crashed a stolen car - albeit one belonging to your parents - into an ancient tree on school property? Expulsion would definitely have been on the cards. But Professor McGonagall didn’t even take any house points off Harry and Ron when they crashed Mr Weasley’s car into the Whomping Willow. And when it came to the Chamber of Secrets, they broke ‘about a hundred school rules into pieces along the way’ and then received Special Awards for Services to the School.
Huh, surely Muggle teachers would barely raise an eyebrow at small transgressions like running in the corridors, chewing gum in class or forgetting your sports kit?
No such luck. If only we could have had detention with Hagrid and unicorns instead of writing lines...
Friendship Harry, Ron and Hermione are true friendship goals but we’re not sure the expectations they created for our own are realistic.
We’re sure your friends are wonderful, but have you ever fought off a twelve-foot mountain troll with any of them? Or accidentally eaten slugs trying to stick up for them? Or believed in a friend so much that you agreed to destroy evil objects with them even though they had no plan whatsoever? You see our point.
But it’s worth saying here that friendship is always relative to the people who are in it, so we’re sure you have a mountain troll moment in your friendship story… even if it doesn’t involve troll bogies or Wingardium Leviosa.
One expectation that the Harry Potter stories gave us was that friendship is vitally important, and that wasn’t unrealistic at all.

Öppna huvudmenyn Wikipedia Sök Ravenclaw Läs på ett annat språk Ladda ned PDF Bevaka Redigera
Ravenclaws vapensköld Ravenclaw är ett fiktivt elevhem på Hogwarts i böckerna om Harry Potter. Elevhemmet har fått sitt namn efter Rowena Ravenclaw, som var med och grundade skolan. De som hamnar i Ravenclaw är de som är eller har potential att bli kvicktänkta och ett gott förstånd. Djuret på vapenskölden är en örn med färgerna blå och brons, elevhemsspöket är den Grå Damen och det är Filius Flitwick som är elevhemsföreståndare.
Allmänt Redigera I den sjunde boken, och filmerna, får man veta att Ravenclaws spöke, den Grå Damen, är spöket efter Helena Ravenclaw, dotter till elevhemmets grundare Rowena Ravenclaw. Enligt J.K. Rowling motsvarar elevhemmet elementet luft. Sällskapsrummet ligger i Ravenclawtornet på den västra sidan av skolan. Väldigt få medlemmar är speciellt nämnda från Ravenclaw, och de som är nämnda är inte med mycket i böckerna, bortsett från Luna Lovegood och Cho Chang. Ravenclaws elever anses vara snygga och vackra nästan allihop, såsom även Rowena Ravenclaw var. Sovsalarna ligger i tornet på skolans västra sida. Uppehållsrummet, som inte har blivit beskrivet förrän i Harry Potter och dödsrelikerna, är runt och dekorerat med blåa draperier. Det har ett välvt tak med målade stjärnor och en staty av Rowena Ravenclaw iförd sitt diadem. Man måste ge svaret på en spetsfundig fråga för att bli insläppt, till skillnad från Gryffindors, Slytherins och Hufflepuffs uppehållsrum där man bara behöver uppge ett lösenord. Ravenclaw är det mest introverta elevhemmet av alla. Huvuddragen hos Ravenclaws är intelligent, intellekt och öppenheten för att upptäcka. Ravenclaws är mycket nyfikna till sin natur och vill alltid veta mer om allt. Ravenclaws föredrar oftast små sammankomster med likasinnade individer. Till skillnad från de andra hemmen är Ravenclaws mer känslomässigt stabilare, tillsammans med Hufflepuff. Deras reaktioner på kritik är bättre än de andra husen, de känner sig inte så ofta sårade och vill veta om flera synvinklar. Ibland kan Ravenclaw-elever verka ointresserade av omgivningen och mer av sin inre värld och fantasi och vara frånkopplad från resten av omvärlden. Bara för att man är med i Ravenclaw betyder det inte att man är bäst i skolan, det är viljan och nyfikenheten till att få kunskap till sig och prestera som avgör om man tillhör i Ravenclaw eller inte. Tack vare deras vilja att lyssna kan de vara mycket empatiska rådgivare för andra. De bör dock lämna ledarroller till någon som är mer extrovert.
Rowena Ravenclaw Redigera Rowena Ravenclaw Harry Potter-rollfigur Anknytning Lojalitet Hogwarts Elevhem Grundare av Ravenclaw Information Kön Kvinna Hårfärg Svart Ögonfärg okänt Blod renblod Rowena Ravenclaw var, tillsammans med Godric Gryffindor, Helga Hufflepuff och Salazar Slytherin, med om att grunda Hogwarts under det första millenniet. Hon grundade elevhemmet Ravenclaw som väljer elever med god intelligens och kunskap. Rowena Ravenclaw har genom seklen omtalats för sin vackra figur och stora skönhet.
Ravenclaw omnämns främst i Harry Potter och dödsrelikerna som tidigare ägare till Ravenclaws diadem; ett mycket kraftfullt magiskt föremål tillverkat av alfer men utvecklat av Ravenclaw för att ge den som bär diademet omätlig kunskap. På diademet finns en inskription som lyder: Klokhet och vett uti övermått är den finaste gåva människan fått. Diademet gör sig mest känt som en av Lord Voldemorts horrokruxer.
Rowena hade en dotter, Helena Rawenclaw som stal diademet från sin moder och flydde till Albanien. Rowena skickade en man som älskade Helena ( numera Blodige Baronen) för att hämta henne. Men när Helena sa att hon inte älskade honom tillbaka blev han så arg att han stack sitt svärd genom henne. Sedan drabbades han av en otrolig ångest och tog sitt eget liv. Diademet lämnades i Albaniens skogar där Tom Dolder (Alias Lord Voldemort) sedan hämtade det.
Ravenclaw var god vän med Hufflepuff. Det är möjligt att dessa häxor kände varandra innan de grundade Hogwarts eftersom de enligt sorteringshatten båda härstammar från dalen.
Ravenclaw anseddes vara det bästa elevhemmet enligt den magiska världen.
Vapensköld Redigera Djuret på emblemet är en örn, och färgerna är blå och brons. Ravenclaw sätter värde på egenskaper som snabbtänkthet, kreativitet och intelligens.
Elever under Harrys tid Redigera Cho Chang Redigera I den fjärde boken frågar Harry Potter om Cho Chang vill gå med honom på julbalen. Cho svarar nej eftersom Cedric Diggory redan har frågat henne, men hon beklagar det. Senare i bok fem är hon med i DA, Dumbledores Armé.
Luna Lovegood Redigera Huvudartikel: Luna Lovegood
Luna Lovegood, född cirka 1981, är en fiktiv person i Harry Potter-böckerna av J.K. Rowling. Hon har en drömmande och udda personlighet. Till exempel har hon trollstaven bakom örat, örhängen av rädisor och ett halsband av honungsölkorkar. På grund av sin personlighet kallas hon av vissa för Stolliga Luna (engelska: Looney). Hennes pappa heter Xenophilius "Xeno" Lovegood.
Luna Lovegood är ett år yngre än Harry Potter och tillhör Ravenclaws elevhem. Hennes pappa är chefredaktör på tidningen Hört och Sett, en tidning som publicerar orimliga och konspirationsteoretiska historier. Både Lunas far och Luna själv tror dock på historierna. Luna är väldig ogillad av många och udda. Hon gillar inte Hermione och Hermione gillar inte henne.
Luna dyker först upp i femte boken, Harry Potter och Fenixorden. I filmatiseringen kom hon att spelas av Evanna Lynch.
J.K. Rowling har beskrivit Luna Lovegood som en "anti-Hermione", eftersom Luna grundar sina åsikter enbart på tro medan Hermione alltid stödjer sig på logik och fakta. Hermione försöker upprepade gånger övertyga Luna att det hon tror på är nonsens, men utan framgång. Hermione anser Luna vara naiv och lättlurad, medan Luna finner Hermione trångsynt. Mot slutet av femte bokern börjar de båda flickorna närma sig varandra och i sjuan försvarar Hermione henne när hon blir kallad konstig.
Padma Patil Redigera Padma Patil Harry Potter-rollfigur Skådespelare Afshan Azad, Svensk röst - Ellen Fjaestad Anknytning Lojalitet Dumbledores Armé Elevhem Ravenclaw Skola Hogwarts Information Kön Kvinna Hårfärg Mörk Padma Patil är identisk tvillingsyster med Parvati Patil som är en av Harry Potters klasskamrater i Gryffindor. Padma sorterades till Ravenclaw trots att systern hamnade i Gryffindor. Hon gick på julbalen med Ron Weasley, tack vare Parvati som skaffade en dejt åt Ron då Harry bad henne. Padma var inte alltför glad över att ha Ron som partner eftersom Ron inte ville dansa med henne. Deras klasskamrat Dean Thomas tyckte, tillsammans med Seamus Finnigan, att Harry och Ron lyckats skaffa de snyggaste tjejerna i hela årskursen som baldejter. I den femte boken blev Padma prefekt för Ravenclaw tillsammans med Anthony Goldstein. Hon gick även med i Dumbledores Armé med Parvati. I filmerna Harry Potter och den flammande bägaren och Harry Potter och Fenixorden är Padma i Gryffindor, som sin syster, och de ses ofta tillsammans. I filmerna är tvillingarna inte så snarlika som i böckerna men ändå väldigt lika.
Terry Boot Redigera Terry Boot går med i Dumbledores Armé under femte året. Han är ytterst imponerad över att Hermione lyckats utföra en Proteusförtrollning över de falska galleonerna som Dumbledores Armé kommunicerar genom, och han undrar högt varför hon inte sorterats till Ravenclaw, med en hjärna som hennes.
Elever före Harrys tid Redigera Filius Flitwick Redigera Filius Flitwick Harry Potter-rollfigur Skådespelare Warwick Davis Anknytning Lojalitet Hogwarts, Fenixorden Elevhem Ravenclaw [1] Ämne Trollformellära Information Kön Man Hårfärg Vit Blod Människa, avlägset släkt med svartalfer Professor Filius Flitwick (född 17 oktober) presenterar och introducerar diverse trollformler i serien, och det har hittills varit hans viktigaste uppgift. Flitwick är lärare i trollformellära och elevhemsföreståndare för Ravenclaw på Hogwarts [1]. Han är en mycket liten trollkarl, och måste stå på en trave böcker för att kunna se över kanten på katedern, och sitta på en hög kuddar vid lärarbordet i Stora Salen.
Flitwicks undervisningsstil verkar vara ganska slapp jämfört med de andra lärarna. Till exempel låter han ibland klasserna spela schack under lektionerna på den sista skoldagen innan jullovet, och han tillåter kaos då eleverna övar på nya trollformler. Flitwick blir ofta träffad av dåliga eller slarviga trollformler som flyger runt i klassrummet. Klassrummet ligger på den tredje våningen i skolan, men Flitwicks kontor ligger på den sjunde våningen.
Professor Flitwick tjänar Hogwarts på många andra sätt än i klassrummet.
Hermione Granger berättar att Filius Flitwick en gång i tiden var en duellmästare, mycket intelligent, och ganska vacker då han var yngre. Han undervisade på Hogwarts redan då James Potter och hans bekanta studerade där. J.K Rowling har nämnt på sin hemsida att Flitwick är en människa, med anor bland alfer.

The Global Network Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to navigationJump to search Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald Fantastic Beasts - The Crimes of Grindelwald Poster.png Theatrical release poster Directed by David Yates Produced by David Heyman J. K. Rowling Steve Kloves Lionel Wigram Written by J. K. Rowling Based on Characters by J. K. Rowling Starring Eddie Redmayne Katherine Waterston Dan Fogler Alison Sudol Ezra Miller Zoë Kravitz Callum Turner Claudia Kim William Nadylam Kevin Guthrie Jude Law Johnny Depp Music by James Newton Howard Cinematography Philippe Rousselot Edited by Mark Day Production company Warner Bros. Pictures Heyday Films Distributed by Warner Bros. Pictures Release date 8 November 2018 (Paris) 16 November 2018 (United Kingdom and United States) Running time 134 minutes[1] Country United Kingdom United States Language English Budget $200 million[1] Box office $653.8 million[1] Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald is a 2018 fantasy film directed by David Yates and written by J. K. Rowling. A joint British and American production, it is the sequel to Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them (2016). It is the second installment in the Fantastic Beasts film series and the tenth overall in the Wizarding World franchise, which began with the Harry Potter film series. The film features an ensemble cast that includes Eddie Redmayne, Katherine Waterston, Dan Fogler, Alison Sudol, Ezra Miller, Zoë Kravitz, Callum Turner, Claudia Kim, William Nadylam, Kevin Guthrie, Jude Law, and Johnny Depp. The plot follows Newt Scamander and Albus Dumbledore as they attempt to take down the dark wizard Gellert Grindelwald, while facing new threats in a more divided wizarding world. A second Fantastic Beasts film was announced in October 2014, and in July 2016 Rowling confirmed she had completed the script. Depp was cast in November 2016, causing some controversy due to domestic violence allegations recently made against him, and Law signed on in April 2017. Principal photography began in July 2017, at Warner Bros. Studios, Leavesden in England. Filming also took place in London, Switzerland, and Paris, and wrapped in December 2017. Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald premiered in Paris on 8 November 2018 and was released worldwide on 16 November 2018, in Real D 3D, Dolby Cinema, IMAX and ScreenX, by Warner Bros. Pictures.[2] The film grossed over $653 million worldwide, becoming the tenth highest-grossing film of 2018, but also the lowest-grossing installment of the Wizarding World franchise. It received mixed reviews from critics, who praised its entertainment value, as well as the direction and performances (particularly from Law and Depp), but criticised the "needlessly complicated, low-stakes plot" while feeling that it was "overburdened" with details setting up future sequels.[3] Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald was nominated for two awards at the 72nd British Academy Film Awards in the categories of Best Production Design and Best Special Visual Effects.[4] An untitled third film is scheduled for release on 12 November 2021.[5] Contents 1 Plot 2 Cast 3 Production 3.1 Development 3.2 Pre-production 3.3 Filming 3.4 Music 3.5 Post-production 4 Release 4.1 Screenplay book 4.2 Home media 5 Reception 5.1 Box office 5.2 Critical response 5.3 Accolades 6 Sequels 7 References 8 External links Plot In 1927, the Magical Congress of the United States of America (MACUSA) is transferring the powerful dark wizard Gellert Grindelwald to Europe to be tried for his crimes. Grindelwald escapes, aided by MACUSA employee Abernathy. Three months later in London, Newt Scamander is at the Ministry of Magic to appeal his international travel ban. While there, he runs into Leta Lestrange, an old Hogwarts classmate and his auror brother Theseus' fiancée. The ministry agree to grant Newt's request on condition he aids Theseus in locating Credence Barebone in Paris. Newt declines after learning he must work with the ruthless bounty hunter, Gunnar Grimmson. Later, after being reprimanded by the Ministry for his recent actions, Albus Dumbledore meets with Newt and is revealed to have indirectly sent his former student to America to release Frank the Thunderbird. Dumbledore requests that Newt travel to Paris and save Credence from Grindelwald and the Ministry, both believing he is Leta's long-lost brother, Corvus Lestrange V. Soon after, Newt receives an unexpected visit from his American friends Queenie Goldstein and Jacob Kowalski. Jacob, a Muggle, has regained his memories that were erased in the previous film. Newt is disappointed that Tina is not with them. Queenie tells him that Tina is seeing someone after reading in Spellbound magazine that Newt and Leta were betrothed. Newt explains his brother is engaged, not him. Newt deduces that Queenie enchanted Jacob into eloping to circumvent the MACUSA's marriage ban between wizards and non-magical humans. After Newt lifts the charm, Jacob refuses to marry Queenie, fearing the consequences she would face. Upset, Queenie leaves to find Tina. Newt and Jacob follow her to Paris where Tina is looking for Credence. In Paris, Tina searches for Credence at the Circus Arcanus. Credence, and a female circus performer named Nagini who is held captive at the circus, escape after causing a distraction. While searching for Credence's birth mother, he and Nagini locate a half-elf servant named Irma Dugard, who placed him for adoption. However Grimmson, who is revealed to be a Grindelwald follower, arrives and kills Irma. Meanwhile, Tina meets Yusuf Kama, who is also hunting Credence. Newt and Jacob follow Yusuf to Tina. Yusuf explains that he made an Unbreakable Vow to kill his brother, whom he believes to be Credence. Meanwhile, unable to find Tina, a distraught Queenie is found by a Grindelwald follower and brought to him. Grindelwald, knowing Queenie's Legilimens ability, allows her to leave while manipulating her into joining him in order to marry Jacob. Newt and Tina infiltrate the French Ministry of Magic for documents to confirm Credence's identity, but Leta and Theseus discover them. Newt and Tina reconcile after he explains he was never engaged to Leta. Their search for information about Credence leads them to the Lestrange family tomb where they find Yusuf. He reveals that he is carrying out his father, Mustafa's request to avenge his mother Laurena's death. She was kidnapped by Corvus's father, Corvus Lestrange IV, who used the Imperius Curse on her. She later died giving birth to Corvus' sister, Leta. Leta reveals she unintentionally caused Corvus V's death. While aboard a ship en route to America, Leta, unable to stand his constant crying, switched her baby brother with another infant (Credence) shortly before the ship sank. Corvus drowned while Credence survived. The group find themselves at Grindelwald's rally where Queenie is among the followers. Jacob is also in attendance. There, Grindelwald shows images of a future global war, and rails against the Ministry's laws prohibiting them from preventing such a tragedy. As Theseus and the Aurors surround the rally, Grindelwald prompts his followers to disperse across Europe and spread his message. Grindelwald conjures a ring of blue fire that kills the retreating Aurors and that only his most loyal followers, including Credence and Queenie, can safely cross to join him. Leta sacrifices herself to hold off Grindelwald so Newt, Tina, Jacob, Yusuf, Nagini, and Theseus can escape. As Grindelwald leaves, the remaining heroes unite alongside the immortal alchemist Nicolas Flamel to subdue and extinguish the fire. Newt realises he is now embroiled in a conflict with Grindelwald, and must choose to fight. At Hogwarts, Newt presents Dumbledore with a vial stolen from Grindelwald. It contains a blood pact Grindelwald and Dumbledore made during their youth that prevents them dueling each other. Dumbledore believes it can be destroyed. At his Nurmengard base in Austria, Grindelwald tells Credence that his true identity is as Aurelius Dumbledore, Albus' long-lost brother, and the only person powerful enough to defeat him.

As a teenager, he and Dumbledore had become friends.

Production Development In October 2014, Warner Bros. Pictures announced the film as "at least" a trilogy with the first installment set to be released on 18 November 2016 followed by the second installment on 16 November 2018 and the third installment on 20 November 2020. David Yates was confirmed to direct at least the first installment of the series.[18][19] In July 2016, Yates confirmed that J. K. Rowling had written the screenplay for the second film and had ideas for the third.[20] Yates talked to Entertainment Weekly about the second film, saying "we've seen the script for Part 2, for the second movie, which takes the story in a whole new direction – as you should, you don’t want to repeat yourself. The second movie introduces new characters as she builds this part of the Harry Potter universe further. It's a very interesting development from where we start out. The work is pouring out of her."[21] In October 2016, it was reported that the Fantastic Beasts film series would comprise five films, with the second film setting in another global capital city, and Eddie Redmayne would be returning to all films to play the lead role of Newt Scamander.[22] Yates would also return to direct the sequel with producers Rowling, David Heyman, Steve Kloves, and Lionel Wigram.[22] Pre-production The casting of Johnny Depp (pictured in character as Gellert Grindelwald) received criticism from some fans. On 1 November 2016, Deadline Hollywood reported that Johnny Depp had been cast in the film.[23][24] Depp's casting received criticism from some fans, due to domestic violence allegations against him.[25][26] In December 2017, J. K. Rowling posted on her website that she would not recast the role because Depp and his ex-wife, actress Amber Heard, had previously expressed hope that the mutual agreement would enable both to move on from the controversy and that "the filmmakers and I are not only comfortable sticking with our original casting, but genuinely happy to have Johnny playing a major character in the movies."[27] About Rowling's response, Depp said in October 2018, "I'll be honest with you, I felt bad for J. K. having to field all these various feelings from people out there. I felt bad that she had to take that."[12] Jude Law was cast as Albus Dumbledore after director David Yates decided that the character should be played by a younger actor, not Michael Gambon (who played the role in six of the Harry Potter films).[28][24] Many other actors were considered for the role, including Christian Bale, Benedict Cumberbatch, Mark Strong, and Jared Harris (son of Richard Harris, who played Dumbledore in the first two Harry Potter films).[29] Filming The film is set in the UK and Paris.[24] Principal photography began on 3 July 2017, at Warner Bros. Studios, Leavesden in Hertfordshire, England, where a part of Paris was built for the purpose including streets, alleys and a square. The New York set from the first film was built in exactly the same spot.[10][30] On 22 September 2017, David Sakurai was cast to play Krall, one of the ambitious and sulky henchman of Grindelwald.[15] Law reportedly finished filming his scenes as Dumbledore in September 2017.[31] On 5 October 2017, several other castings were announced, including Brontis Jodorowsky as Nicolas Flamel and Jessica Williams joining in an undisclosed role.[32] Principal photography wrapped on 20 December 2017.[33] Music Main article: Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald (soundtrack) James Newton Howard confirmed in November 2016 that he would return to compose the music for the film.[34] The soundtrack was released by WaterTower Music on 9 November 2018.[35] Post-production The visual effects were provided by DNEG (Double Negative), Framestore, Method Studios, Image Engine, Milk VFX, Rodeo FX, Nzivage, Proof, The Third Floor, Inc. and Lola Visual Effects with Industrial Light & Magic (ILM) doing the concept design and development and The Visual Effects Company doing the motion capture for film.[36] Release Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald had its world premiere at the UGC Ciné Cité Bercy in Paris on 8 November 2018. It was released worldwide by Warner Bros. Pictures on 16 November 2018 in IMAX, RealD 3D, Dolby Cinema and 4DX.[37][38][39] Screenplay book As with the previous Fantastic Beasts film, the screenplay by J. K. Rowling was released as a book shortly after the premiere.[40] Home media Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald was released for digital download on 15 February 2019, and on Ultra HD Blu-ray, 3D Blu-ray, Blu-ray and DVD on 12 March 2019.[41] Reception Box office Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald grossed $159.6 million in the United States and Canada, and $494.2 million in other territories, for a total worldwide gross of $653.8 million, against a production budget of $200 million.[1] It is the lowest-grossing Wizarding World installment to-date. In the United States and Canada, the film was released alongside Instant Family and Widows, and was projected to gross $65–75 million from 4,163 theatres in its opening weekend.[42] The film made $25.7 million on its first day, including $9.1 million from Thursday night previews, an improvement over the first film's $8.75 million. It went on to debut to $62.2 million over the weekend, a 16% drop from the first Fantastic Beasts' $74.4 million, and marking the lowest opening for a film in the Wizarding World franchise. Deadline Hollywood noted that mixed critical reviews and current competition in theaters likely hurt the opening weekend figures.[43] In its second weekend the film dropped 52% to $29.4 million (including $42.9 million over the five-day Thanksgiving frame), finishing fourth.[44] In its third weekend the film made $11.4 million, remaining in fourth.[45] Internationally, the film was expected to gross an additional $188–205 million from 79 countries, for a global debut of about $250 million.[42][46] It made $10.1 million on its first day of release from 10 countries, including $2.6 million in France and $2 million in South Korea. On its second day of release the film began to play in 45 other countries and made another $18.4 million, for a two-day gross of $31 million. It also made $12.8 million on its first day in China, the best of any Wizarding World film in the country.[46] It went on to have an international debut of $191 million, for a global total of $253.2 million, a 2.7% improvement over the first film's debut. Its largest markets were China ($37.5 million), the UK ($16.3 million, or £12.7 million) and Germany ($12.8 million). In several countries it had the best-ever opening for a Wizarding World film, including Russia, Indonesia, Argentina and Brazil.[47] Critical response On the review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes, the film holds an approval rating of 37% based on 310 reviews, with an average rating of 5.28/10. The website's critical consensus reads, "Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald has glimmers of the magic familiar to Harry Potter fans, but the story's spell isn't as strong as earlier installments."[48] On Metacritic, the film has a weighted average score of 52 out of 100, based on 48 critics, indicating "mixed or average reviews".[49] It is the lowest-rated Wizarding World film on both websites.[50][51] Audiences polled by CinemaScore gave the film an average grade of "B+" on an A+ to F scale, the lowest of the franchise, while PostTrak reported filmgoers gave it an 83% positive score and a 69% "definite recommend"; social media monitor RelishMix noted online responses to the film were "mixed".[43] Andrew Barker of Variety called the film a "cluttered expansion of the Harry Potter franchise" and wrote, "The film throws plenty of plot twists, loud noises, and multihued magical nebulae at us, but rarely is there much tension, or sense of adventure, or any real longing, just the feeling of watching one chess piece after another being moved into position."[52] Writing for The Guardian, Peter Bradshaw gave the film 3/5 stars, praising Law and Depp's performances, but criticising the film's excessive plotting, and saying: “ This Fantastic Beasts film is as watchable and entertaining as expected... but some of the wonder, novelty and sheer narrative rush of the first film has been mislaid in favour of a more diffuse plot focus, spread out among a bigger ensemble cast.[53] ” Accolades Award Date of ceremony Category Recipient(s) and nominee(s) Result Ref(s) Visual Effects Society Awards February 5, 2019 Outstanding Effects Simulations in a Photoreal Feature Dominik Kirouac, Chloe Ostiguy, Christian Gaumond Nominated [54] British Academy Film Awards February 10, 2019 Best Production Design Stuart Craig and Anna Pinnock Nominated [55] Best Special Visual Effects Tim Burke, Andy Kind, Christian Manz, and David Watkins Nominated Saturn Awards September 13, 2019 Best Fantasy Film Nominated [56] Sequels Initially, in October 2014, the studio announced there would be a Fantastic Beasts trilogy.

HP-F8-web-header-battle-hogwarts FEATURE Ten inspirational moments from the Battle of Hogwarts Signature_Logo_WizardingWorld Written by The Wizarding World Team Published on Apr 29th 2020 Harry Potter might have ended the Battle of Hogwarts but he did it surrounded by heroes. Here’s ten inspirational moments of love and bravery from the battle that changed wizarding history for the better… When the statues and suits of armour awoke to defend their school… “Hogwarts is threatened!’ shouted Professor McGonagall. ‘Man the boundaries, protect us, do your duty to our school!’ Clattering and yelling, the horde of moving statues stampeded past Harry: some of them smaller, others larger than life.’
When the forces for good throughout Harry’s life joined the fight together… ‘There was a great roar and a surge towards the foot of the stairs; he was pressed back against the wall as they ran past him, the mingled members of the Order of the Phoenix, Dumbledore’s Army and Harry’s old Quidditch team, all with their wands drawn, heading up into the main castle.’
When Percy saw sense and the Weasleys showed us the beauty of forgiveness… "I was a fool!’ Percy roared, so loudly that Lupin nearly dropped his photograph. ‘I was an idiot, I was a pompous prat, I was a – a –’
‘Ministry-loving, family-disowning, power-hungry moron,’ said Fred. Percy swallowed. ‘Yes, I was!’
‘Well, you can’t say fairer than that,’ said Fred, holding out his hand to Percy.
Mrs Weasley burst into tears. She ran forwards, pushed Fred aside and pulled Percy into a strangling hug, while he patted her on the back, his eyes on his father.
‘I’m sorry, Dad,’ Percy said. Mr Weasley blinked rather rapidly, then he, too, hurried to hug his son.'
When Harry was shielded, not by magic, but by three whole Hogwarts houses… ‘But he’s there! Potter’s there! Someone grab him!’
Before Harry could speak, there was a massive movement. The Gryffindors in front of him had risen and stood facing, not Harry, but the Slytherins. Then the Hufflepuffs stood, and, almost at the same moment, the Ravenclaws, all of them with their backs to Harry, all of them looking towards Pansy instead, and Harry, awe- struck and overwhelmed, saw wands emerging everywhere, pulled from beneath cloaks and from under sleeves.’
When Harry went back for Malfoy and Goyle in the Room of Requirement… "IF WE DIE FOR THEM, I’LL KILL YOU, HARRY!’ roared Ron’s voice, and as a great, flaming Chimaera bore down upon them he and Hermione dragged Goyle on to their broom and rose, rolling and pitching, into the air once more as Malfoy clambered up behind Harry.'
When Percy Weasley resigned from the Ministry in the most perfect way… "Hello, Minister!’ bellowed Percy, sending a neat jinx straight at Thicknesse, who dropped his wand and clawed at the front of his robes, apparently in awful discomfort. ‘Did I mention I’m resigning?’
‘You’re joking, Perce!’ shouted Fred, as the Death Eater he was battling collapsed under the weight of three separate Stunning Spells. Thicknesse had fallen to the ground with tiny spikes erupting all over him; he seemed to be turning into some form of sea urchin. Fred looked at Percy with glee.'
When love (finally) prevailed in the midst of the battle – with a little help from house-elves… "No,’ said Ron seriously, ‘I mean we should tell them to get out. We don’t want any more Dobbys, do we? We can’t order them to die for us –’
There was a clatter as the Basilisk fangs cascaded out of Hermione’s arms. Running at Ron, she flung them around his neck and kissed him full on the mouth. Ron threw away the fangs and broomstick he was holding and responded with such enthusiasm that he lifted Hermione off her feet.'
When Harry’s DA students saved his life with a spell he’d taught them … ‘And then a silver hare, a boar and a fox soared past Harry, Ron and Hermione’s heads: the Dementors fell back before the creatures’ approach. Three more people had arrived out of the darkness to stand beside them, their wands outstretched, continuing to cast their Patronuses: Luna, Ernie and Seamus.
‘That’s right,’ said Luna encouragingly, as if they were back in he Room of Requirement and this was simply spell practice for the DA. ‘That’s right, Harry ... come on, think of something happy ...’
‘Something happy?’ he said, his voice cracked.
‘We’re all still here,’ she whispered, ‘we’re still fighting. Come on, now ...’
When Molly Weasley took on Bellatrix Lestrange to protect her family… "NOT MY DAUGHTER, YOU BITCH!’
Mrs Weasley threw off her cloak as she ran, freeing her arms. Bellatrix spun on the spot, roaring with laughter at the sight of her new challenger.
‘OUT OF MY WAY!’ shouted Mrs Weasley to the three girls, and with a swipe of her wand she began to duel. Harry watched with terror and elation as Molly Weasley’s wand slashed and twirled, and Bellatrix Lestrange’s smile faltered, and became a snarl.’
When Harry learned the truth about Severus Snape and love changed everything… ‘But this is touching, Severus,’ said Dumbledore seriously. ‘Have you grown to care for the boy, after all?’
‘For him?’ shouted Snape. ‘Expecto patronum!’
From the tip of his wand burst the silver doe: she landed on the office floor, bounded once acrossthe office and soared out of the window. Dumbledore watched her fly away, and as her silvery glow faded he turned back to Snape, and his eyes were full of tears.
‘After all this time?’
‘Always,’ said Snape.'

"Unlike the O.W.L.s, the W.O.M.B.A.T.s consist exclusively of written papers. Therefore W.O.M.B.A.T.s could be sat by Muggles as well as wizards, although the Wizarding Examinations Authority does not believe that any Muggle would have the degree of inner-knowledge required to achieve a pass." —Excerpt from the Grade 3 W.O.M.B.A.T.[src] The Wizards' Ordinary Magic and Basic Aptitude Test (or W.O.M.B.A.T.) is a series of tests administered by the Wizarding Examinations Authority, concerning a variety of subjects. The W.O.M.B.A.T.s, unlike the O.W.L.s or the N.E.W.T.s, consist exclusively of written papers. Therefore W.O.M.B.A.T.s could be sat by Muggles as well as wizards and witches, although the Wizarding Examinations Authority does not believe that any Muggle would have the degree of inner knowledge required to achieve a pass.
The W.O.M.B.A.T.s test whether the sitter is able to exist safely and effectively within the magical world. A W.O.M.B.A.T. usually takes twenty-five minutes to complete, although more advanced levels (such as Grade 3) take more time; thirty-five minutes. The Ministry takes a few days to mark every test, after which an owl delivers the results in the form of a certificate (if it is a passing grade), or a letter (if it is a failing grade).

HARRY POTTER WIKI Wizards' Ordinary Magic and Basic Aptitude Test WOMBAT logo.jpg The logo for the W.O.M.B.A.T.s Unlike the O.W.L.s, the W.O.M.B.A.T.s consist exclusively of written papers. Therefore W.O.M.B.A.T.s could be sat by Muggles as well as wizards, although the Wizarding Examinations Authority does not believe that any Muggle would have the degree of inner-knowledge required to achieve a pass. EXCERPT FROM THE GRADE 3 W.O.M.B.A.T. The Wizards' Ordinary Magic and Basic Aptitude Test (or W.O.M.B.A.T.) is a series of tests administered by the Wizarding Examinations Authority, concerning a variety of subjects. The W.O.M.B.A.T.s, unlike the O.W.L.s or the N.E.W.T.s, consist exclusively of written papers. Therefore W.O.M.B.A.T.s could be sat by Muggles as well as wizards and witches, although the Wizarding Examinations Authority does not believe that any Muggle would have the degree of inner knowledge required to achieve a pass. The W.O.M.B.A.T.s test whether the sitter is able to exist safely and effectively within the magical world. A W.O.M.B.A.T. usually takes twenty-five minutes to complete, although more advanced levels (such as Grade 3) take more time; thirty-five minutes. The Ministry takes a few days to mark every test, after which an owl delivers the results in the form of a certificate (if it is a passing grade), or a letter (if it is a failing grade).

Presented partially as a Harry Potter trivia test, there is nevertheless additional information that can be gleaned from the questions. Amusingly, Neil Murray, the husband of J. K. Rowling, took the first W.O.M.B.A.T. and only achieved a score of Acceptable, despite being in the same room as his wife when she was composing the quiz and listening to her read the answers out loud. This discouraged him from attempting either of the following two tests.[1] Appearances J. K. Rowling's official site Notes and references ↑ J.K.

The site of Arthur's purported grave in "Avalon" at Glastonbury Abbey The historicity of King Arthur has been debated both by academics and popular writers. While there have been many suggestions that the character of Arthur may be based on one or more real historical figures, academic historians today consider King Arthur to be a mythological or folkloric figure.[1][2]
The first mention of Arthur appears in 829, where he is presented as a leader fighting against the invading Saxons in 5th- to 6th-century Sub-Roman Britain at the Battle of Badon, that is, more than three centuries after the events. He develops into a legendary figure in the Matter of Britain from the 12th century, following Geoffrey of Monmouth's influential Historia Regum Britanniae.
Non-specialists continue to propose a variety of theories for a possible historical identity of Arthur: Artúr mac Áedáin, a son of the 6th-century Dál Riata king Áedán mac Gabráin; Ambrosius Aurelianus, who led a Romano-British resistance against the Saxons; Lucius Artorius Castus, a 2nd-century Roman commander of Sarmatian cavalry; the British king Riothamus, who fought alongside the last Gallo-Roman commanders against the Visigoths in an expedition to Gaul in the 5th century; or a composite of any of these people as well as other figures and myths. Academic historians have not supported these hypotheses in the 21st century.
Contents 1 Historiography 2 Etymology of "Arthur" 3 Early sources 3.1 Gildas and Badon 3.2 Historia Brittonum 3.3 Annales Cambriae 3.4 Historia Regum Britanniae 3.5 Hagiographies 3.6 Bardic sources 4 Alternative candidates for the historical King Arthur 4.1 Lucius Artorius Castus and the Sarmatian connection 4.2 Riothamus 4.3 Ambrosius Aurelianus 4.4 Artúr mac Áedáin 5 See also 6 Notes 7 References 7.1 Citations 7.2 Sources 8 External links Historiography Until the late 20th century, there was academic debate about the historicity of Arthur among historians and archaeologists. In the 21st century, the academic consensus has turned against it.
In 1936, R. G. Collingwood and J. N. L. Myres treated Arthur as a Roman comes Britanniarum. They assert that "the historicity of [Arthur] can hardly be called into question", though they are careful to separate the historical Arthur from the legendary Arthur.[3]
In 1971, Leslie Alcock claimed to "demonstrate that there is acceptable historical evidence that Arthur was a genuine historical figure, not a mere figment of myth or romance".[4] Also in 1971, while conceding that Gildas does not mention Arthur, Frank Stenton says that this "may suggest that the Arthur of history was a less imposing figure than the Arthur of legend" but then argues that "it should not be allowed to remove him from the sphere of history."[5] In 1977, John Morris argued in favour,[6] but his work was widely criticised at the time as having "grave methodological flaws".[7] David Dumville took the opposite position in the same year: "The fact of the matter is that there is no historical evidence about Arthur; we must reject him from our histories and, above all, from the titles of our books."[8]
By 1986, J. N. L. Myres, who had written in 1936 (with Collingwood) that Arthur was historical, said "It is inconceivable that Gildas... should not have mentioned Arthur's part..." (that is, if he had existed) and complains that "No figure on the borderline of history and mythology has wasted more of the historian’s time."[9] By 1991, the Biographical Dictionary of Dark Age Britain stated that "historians are tending to take a minimal view of the historical value of even the earliest evidence for Arthur, but most probably still see him as an historical figure..." while "the chivalric Arthur... was essentially the creation of Geoffrey of Monmouth in the twelfth century".[10]
In 2003, Thomas Charles-Edwards' book on the period only mentions Arthur in the context of a later Welsh story.[11] In 2004, Francis Pryor dismisses the evidence that Arthur existed but says that proving he did not exist is as impossible as proving that he did.[12] Also in 2004, the Oxford Dictionary of National Biography describes Arthur as a "legendary warrior and supposed king of Britain".[13]
In a 2007 review, Howard Wiseman follows Sheppard Frere (1967), saying that "the evidence allows, not requires belief", and follows Christopher Snyder (2000) in emphasising the need for a better understanding of the period, regardless of whether Arthur existed.[7] In 2011, Robin Fleming's history of the period does not mention Arthur at all.[14] In 2013, Guy Halsall reports that "among the academic community, the sceptics have decisively carried the day".[15] In 2018, Nicholas Higham refutes all the outstanding claims for a historical Arthur, summarising his position as: "That Arthur has produced extraordinary quantities of 'smoke' is in large part because he is so well suited to be a fulcrum of make-believe. But there is no historical 'fire' underlying the stories that congregated around him, just 'highland mist'."[16] His book has been generally praised.[7][1]
In a 2018 review, Tom Shippey summarises the situation as "modern academic historians want nothing to do with King Arthur."[1] In a 2019 review, Brian David reported that "Few topics in late antique and medieval history elicit scholarly groans quite like the idea of a supposedly 'factual' King Arthur. Yet historians and other scholars made cases for Arthur’s existence in historical and literary studies until the 1980s. For academics today, the question of the realism of King Arthur has been largely banished to popular books, video games, and movies."[2]
Etymology of "Arthur" Main article: Arthur The origin of the name Arthur is unclear. The most widely accepted etymology is from the Roman family name Artorius,[17] itself of obscure and contested etymology,[18] possibly of Messapic[19][20][21] or Etruscan origin.[22][23][24] According to linguist and Celticist Stephan Zimmer, it is possible that Artorius has a Celtic origin, being a Latinization of the hypothetical name *Artorījos derived from the patronym *Arto-rīg-ios, meaning "Son of the Bear" or "Warrior-King". *Arto-rīg-ios is unattested, but the root *arto-rīg is the source of the Old Irish personal name Artrí.[25] Some scholars have noted that the legendary King Arthur's name only appears as Arthur, Arthurus, or Arturus in early Latin Arthurian texts, and never as Artōrius (although the Classical Latin Artōrius became Arturius in some Vulgar Latin dialects). However, it may not refer to the origin of the name Arthur, as Artōrius would regularly become Art(h)ur when borrowed into Welsh.[26]
John Morris argued that the appearance of the name Arthur among Scottish and Welsh figures suggests the name became popular in early 6th-century Britain for a short time. He proposed all such occurrences were due to the importance of another Arthur who may have ruled temporarily as Emperor of Britain,[6] and suggested a period of Saxon advance was halted and turned back before resuming in the 570s.
Early sources Further information: Sub-Roman Britain, Wales in the Early Middle Ages, and Anglo-Saxon settlement of Britain Gildas and Badon Arthur is not mentioned in Gildas' 6th-century book De Excidio et Conquestu Britanniae. Gildas does mention a Briton victory against the Saxons at the "Badonic mount" (mons Badonicus), which occurred in the year of Gildas' birth and ushered in a generation of peace between the two warring peoples. This engagement is now referred to as the Battle of Badon. Gildas describes the battle as taking place "in our times" and being one of the "latest, if not the greatest" slaughter of the Saxons, and that a new generation born after Badon had come of age in Britain. Later Cambro-Latin sources give the Old Welsh form of the battle's location as Badon, such as in the Annales Cambriae, and this has been adopted by most modern scholars.[27][28][29]
Gildas' Latin is somewhat opaque; he does not name Arthur or any other leader of the battle. He does discuss Ambrosius Aurelianus as a great scourge of the Saxons immediately prior,[27] but he seems to indicate that some time had passed between Ambrosius' victory and the Battle of Badon. The details of the battle, including its date and location, remain uncertain, with most scholars accepting a date around 500; numerous locations throughout Britain have been proposed over the years.
Historia Brittonum Arthur is also not mentioned in Bede's Historia ecclesiastica gentis Anglorum (Ecclesiastical History of the English People), which dates to c. 731, or any other surviving work until around 829, the date ascribed to the Historia Brittonum, nominally by the Welsh ecclesiastic Nennius.[30] Historia Brittonum lists 12 battles fought by Arthur and gives him the title of dux bellorum (war commander or leader), saying that Arthur fought "alongside the kings of the Britons", rather than that Arthur was himself a king. Other accounts associating Arthur with the Battle of Mount Badon can be shown to be derived directly or indirectly from the Historia Brittonum. The list is inserted between the death of the legendary Hengist and the reign of Ida of Bernicia.
Annales Cambriae The earliest version of the Annales Cambriae (Welsh Annals) was composed in the mid-10th century. It gives the date of Badon as 516 and lists Arthur's death as occurring in 537 at the Battle of Camlann. Like the Annals, all other sources that name Arthur were written at least 400 years after the events which they describe.[31]
Historia Regum Britanniae Arthur was first styled as a king of the Britons in Geoffrey of Monmouth's pseudo-historical chronicle Historia Regum Britanniae (History of the Kings of Britain), which dates to c. 1136.[note 1] Geoffrey also refers to Ambrosius Aurelianus (whom he calls Aurelius Ambrosius) as a king of Britain and an older brother of Uther Pendragon, father of Arthur, thus establishing a familial relationship between Aurelianus and Arthur. He identifies Aurelius Ambrosius as the son of Constantinus, a Breton ruler and brother of Aldroenus [fr].[32]
Hagiographies Arthur is mentioned in several 12th- to 13th-century hagiographies of Welsh and Breton saints, including those of Cadoc, Carantoc, Gildas, Goeznovius, Illtud, and Paternus. The Legenda Sancti Goeznovii is a hagiography of the Breton saint Goeznovius which was formerly dated to c. 1019[33] but is now dated to the late 12th to early 13th century.[34] It includes a brief segment dealing with Arthur and a leader known as Vortigern.[35]
Bardic sources There are a number of mentions of a legendary hero called Arthur in early Welsh and Breton poetry. These sources are preserved in High Medieval manuscripts and cannot be dated with accuracy. They are mostly placed in the 9th to 10th century, although some authors have dated them to as early as the 7th century. The earliest of these would appear to be the Old Welsh poem Y Gododdin, preserved in a 13th-century manuscript. It refers to a warrior who "glutted black ravens [i.e., killed many men] on the rampart of the stronghold, although he was no Arthur."[31]
The Welsh poem Geraint, son of Erbin describes a battle at a port-settlement and mentions Arthur in passing.[36] The work is a praise-poem and elegy for King Geraint, usually presumed to be a historical king of Dumnonia, and is significant in showing that he was associated with Arthur at a relatively early date.[36] It also provides the earliest known reference to Arthur as "emperor".[36] Geraint, son of Erbin is found in the Black Book of Carmarthen,[37] compiled around 1250, though the poem itself may date to the 10th or 11th century.[36] Y Gododdin was similarly copied around the same time. The two poems differ in the relative archaic quality of their language, that of Y Gododdin being the older in form. However, this could merely reflect differences in the date of the last revision of the language within the two poems, as the language would have had to have been revised for the poems to remain comprehensible.
Alternative candidates for the historical King Arthur Some theories suggest that "Arthur" was a byname of attested historical individuals.
Lucius Artorius Castus and the Sarmatian connection One theory suggests that Lucius Artorius Castus, a Roman military commander who served in Britain in the late 2nd century or early 3rd century, was a prototype of Arthur.[38][39] Artorius is known from two inscriptions that give details about his service. After a long career as a centurion in the Roman army, he was promoted to prefect of Legio VI Victrix, a legion headquartered in Eboracum (present-day York, England).[40][41][42] He later commanded two British legions on an expedition against either the Armoricans (in present-day Brittany) or the Armenians.[43][44] He subsequently became civilian governor of Liburnia in modern Croatia, where he died.[41]
Kemp Malone first made the connection between Artorius and King Arthur in 1924. Noting that the Welsh name Arthur plausibly derives from the Latin Artorius, Malone suggested that certain details of Castus' biography, in particular his possible campaign in Brittany and the fact that he was obliged to retire from the military (perhaps because of an injury), may have inspired elements of Geoffrey of Monmouth's depiction of King Arthur.[45][18] Later scholars have challenged the idea, based on the fact that Artorius lived two to three centuries before the period typically associated with Arthur, and the fact that the parts of the inscriptions ostensibly similar to Arthur's story are open to interpretation.[46]
Malone's idea attracted little attention for decades, but it was revived in the 1970s as part of a theory known as the "Sarmatian connection".[45][47] In a 1975 essay, Helmut Nickel suggested that Artorius was the original Arthur, and that a group of Sarmatian cavalry serving under him in Britain inspired the Knights of the Round Table. Nickel wrote that Castus' Sarmatian unit fought under a red dragon banner and that their descendants were still in Britain in the 5th century; he also identified similarities between the Arthurian legend and traditions associated with the Sarmatians and other peoples of the Caucasus region. He suggested that the Sarmatians' descendants kept Castus' legacy alive over the centuries and mixed it with their ancestral myths involving magical cauldrons and swords.[48]
Independently of Nickel, C. Scott Littleton developed a more elaborate version of the Sarmatian connection. Littleton first wrote about the theory with Anne C. Thomas in 1978, and expanded on it in a 1994 book co-authored by Linda Malcor, From Scythia to Camelot.[49][50][51] Littleton and Malcor argued that Artorius and the Sarmatian cavalry were the inspiration for King Arthur and his knights, but that many elements of Arthur's story derive from Caucasian mythology, ostensibly brought to Britain in the 2nd century by Sarmatians and Alans. They find parallels for key features of the Arthurian legend, including the Sword in the Stone, the Holy Grail, and the return of Arthur's sword to a lake, in the traditions of the Caucasus, and connect Arthur and his knights to Batraz and his Narts, the heroes of the legends of the North Caucasus.[49][52]
Some Arthurian scholars have given credence to the Sarmatian connection, but others have found it based on conjecture and weak evidence.[49] Few of the Caucasian traditions cited to support the theory can be traced specifically with the Sarmatians; many are known only from orally transmitted tales that are not datable before they were first recorded in the 19th century.[53][49] Additionally, many of the strongest parallels to the Arthurian legend are not found in the earliest Brittonic materials, but only appear in the later Continental romances of the 12th century or later.[52] As such, the traditions would have had to survive in Britain for at least a thousand years between the arrival of the Sarmatians in the 2nd century and the Arthurian romances of the 12th century.[49] Nonetheless, the Sarmatian connection continues to have popular appeal; it is the basis of the 2004 film King Arthur.[49]
Riothamus Riothamus (also spelled Riotimus) was a historical figure whom ancient sources list as "a king of the Britons". He lived in the late 5th century, and most of the stories about him were recorded in the Byzantine historian Jordanes' The Origin and Deeds of the Goths, written in the mid-6th century, only about 80 years after his presumed death.
About 460, the Roman diplomat and bishop Sidonius Apollinaris sent a letter to Riothamus asking his help to quell unrest among the Brettones, a colony of Brittonic-speaking people living in Armorica; this letter still survives. In the year 470, the Western Roman Emperor Anthemius began a campaign against Euric, king of the Visigoths who were campaigning outside their territory in Gaul. Anthemius requested help from Riothamus, and Jordanes writes that he crossed the ocean into Gaul with 12,000 soldiers. The location of Riothamus' army was betrayed to the Visigoths by Arvandus, the jealous praetorian prefect of Gaul, and Euric defeated him in the Battle of Déols after Riothamus' army was driven from Avaricum (Bourges) where he had been welcomed by the Bituriges before the fight. Riothamus was last seen retreating northward to Burgundy when Euric besieged Arvernum (Clermont-Ferrand) just south of the Bituriges territory.
Geoffrey Ashe points out that Arthur is said by Geoffrey of Monmouth to have crossed into Gaul twice, once to help a Roman emperor and once to subdue a civil war. Riothamus did both, assuming that he was a king in Britain as well as Armorica. Arthur is also said to have been betrayed by one of his advisers, and Riothamus was betrayed by one of his supposed allies. Finally, the Arthurian romances traditionally recount that King Arthur was carried off to Avalon (called insula Auallonis by Geoffrey of Monmouth, the first author to mention the legendary isle) before he died; Riothamus, after his defeat at Déols, was last known to have fled to the kingdom of the Germanic Burgundians, perhaps passing through a town called Avallon (though no ancient source on Riothamus mentions him being anywhere in the area of Avallon).
It is unknown whether Riothamus was a king in Britain or Armorica. Armorica was a Brittonic colony and Jordanes writes that Riothamus "crossed the ocean", so it is possible that both are correct. The name Riothamus is interpreted by Ashe and some other scholars as a title meaning "High King", though there is no evidence for such a title being used by ancient Britons or Gauls, and the formation of the name (noun/adjective + superlative -tamo- suffix) follows a pattern found in numerous other Brittonic and Gaulish personal names.[note 2] Cognates of the name Riothamus survive in Old Welsh (Riatav/Riadaf) and Old Breton (Riatam); all are derived from Common Brittonic *Rigotamos, meaning "Most Kingly" or "Kingliest".
Ambrosius Aurelianus Ambrosius Aurelianus (also sometimes referred to as Aurelius Ambrosius) was a powerful Romano-British leader in Britain. He was renowned for his campaigns against the Saxons, and there is some speculation that he may have commanded the British forces at the Battle of Badon Hill. At any rate, the battle was a clear continuation of his efforts.
Scholars such as Leon Fleuriot identified Ambrosius Aurelianus with the aforementioned Riothamus figure from Jordanes, an idea which forms part of Fleuriot's hypothesis about the origins of the Arthurian legend.[55] Others, such as Geoffrey Ashe, disagree, since Ambrosius is not called "king" until the somewhat-legendary Historia Brittonum.[56]
Artúr mac Áedáin Artúr mac Áedáin was the eldest son of Áedán mac Gabráin, an Irish king of Dál Riata in the late 6th century. Artúr never himself became king of Dál Riata; his brother Eochaid Buide ruled after their father's death. However, Artúr became a war leader when Áedán gave up his role and retired to monastic life, though Áedán was officially still king. Thus it was Artúr who led the Scoti of Dál Riata in a war against the Picts, separate from the later war with Northumbria.
Under this hypothesis, Artúr was predominantly active in the region between Hadrian's Wall and the Antonine Wall, the Kingdom of the Gododdin. He was ultimately killed in battle in 582 – thus, he lived far too late to have been the victor at the Battle of Badon, as mentioned by Gildas in the early 6th century. This is the solution proposed by David F. Carroll (in his book Arturius: A Quest for Camelot, 1996) and by Michael Wood.[57]
See also King Arthur's messianic return Sites and places associated with Arthurian legend Notes Historia Regum Britanniae draws upon Gildas' De Excidio Britanniae, the Historia Brittonum, and the Annales Cambriae, among other sources. Examples include: Old Breton/Welsh Cunatam/Cunotami/Condam/Cyndaf (Brittonic *Cunotamos "Great Dog"), Old Welsh Caurdaf (Brittonic *Kawarotamos "Great Giant"), Old Welsh/Breton Eudaf/Outham (Brittonic *Awitamos "Great Will/Desire"), Uuoratam/Gwrdaf (Brittonic *Wortamos "Supreme"), Old Breton Rumatam (Brittonic *Roimmotamos "Great Band/Host"), Gwyndaf (Brittonic *Windotamos "Fairest/Whitest/Holiest One"), Breton Uuentamau (Brittonic *Wenitamaua "Friendliest", and *Windotamawā "Little Fairest/Whitest/Holiest (One)").[54] ^α For example, Artúr mac Conaing,[58] who may have been named after his uncle Artúr mac Áedáin. Artúr son of Bicoir "the Briton" was another reported in this period, who slew Mongán mac Fiachnai of Ulster in 620/625 in Kintyre.[59] A man named Feradach, apparently the grandson of one Artuir, was a signatory at the synod that enacted the Law of Adomnan in 697.[59] Arthur ap Pedr was a prince in Dyfed, born around 570–580.[60] References Citations Tom Shippey, "So Much Smoke", review of Nicholas J.

Interactive Entertainment Released 25 April 2018[2][3] Genre Narrative role-playing Platforms Android 4.4 or later[4] iOS 10.0 or later[5] [Source] Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery is a video game developed by Jam City, released for mobile devices on 25 April 2018.[2][6][7] It is the first game to be released under Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment's Portkey Games label.
In this game, the player creates their own character and takes on the role of a Hogwarts student. The character experiences all seven years and takes part in classes as well as extra activities such as the Duelling Club.[6]
Several actors voiced characters that they had played in the Harry Potter films before, including Warwick Davis, Michael Gambon, Maggie Smith, Gemma Jones, Zoë Wanamaker, and Sally Mortemore.[2][8]

Add a photo to this gallery Setting The player creates a character and follows the story of a student at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, and throughout the game will have to make certain choices that determine the path their character will be placed on, including the kind of relationships they build with other characters. Along with the story told through each chapter, they have the opportunity to achieve rewards by learning spells and potions.
The Official Digital Toolset for Dungeons & Dragons
VISIT D&D BEYOND The story follows the character for their seven years of education at Hogwarts from 1984 to 1991. In that time, the game will feature characters known from the books during their student years, including Bill Weasley, Charlie Weasley, and Nymphadora Tonks.[7] The game also features teachers who were working at Hogwarts during that time including the characters of Rubeus Hagrid, Severus Snape, Minerva McGonagall,[7] Albus Dumbledore, Filius Flitwick, and Rolanda Hooch.[9] During the timespan, an infant Harry Potter was only just spared his life. Cedric Diggory was mentioned by his father, that he would be joining Hogwarts as a first-year student by the time the player reaches year 6.
Gameplay The player The player will receive choices to make throughout the game. The answers they give from a maximum of three possible answers can determine which wand they receive, how strong their friendship with another character will be or how to deal with a situation that could have an impact on them later in the story. They have the choice of rewards that help contribute to the CourageIcon Courage, EmpathyIcon Empathy and KnowledgeIcon Knowledge level of the player. The rewards can be earned in classes or by completing pieces of the story. Certain choices may only be available if the player's Courage, Empathy or Knowledge level are high enough.
Levelling up will have all energy restored. By tapping on the character's face on the upper left, the current level and level progress bar will be visible underneath the character's name. When the bar is full the player levels up.
Energy The player completes each chapter for both the classes or the story by using EnergyIcon energy to complete tasks. The initial full limit of the player's energy is 24, though it can be broadened throughout the game. When the player uses one energy it will take four minutes for the energy to be added back to the game. The number of energy one general task will take varies between 1 and 5, in special cases, when the outline is red instead of blue, it can take up to 13.
Throughout the game, there are hidden opportunities to gain energy by clicking on a certain character or item. They are known to include:
Clicking Borf when he appears in the Magical Creatures Reserve, so that he reacts and runs away. Clicking the Golden Snitch flying above the Quidditch Pitch, so that it flies away. Clicking the empty portrait placed next to the Charms Classroom so the Girl with Flowers will reappear. Clicking Peeves when he appears between the portrait of Fytherley Undercliffe and the Divination Classroom so that he laughs and vanishes. This option seemed to only be available after certain events; Peeves used to be a non-interactive element between the Grand Staircase and Courtyard. Clicking the still-life painting in the West Towers between the Gryffindor House and the Prefects' Bathroom that contains white flowers in what appears to be a tree trunk so that three oranges will reappear and the white flowers bounce. Clicking the middle of the three suits of armour on the right of the Great Hall entrance when the middle suit is holding a sword and the right suit a shield, so that they will switch what they are holding. Clicking the unlit torch on the right of the Great Hall entrance so that it will relight. Clicking the unidentified house-elf near the Hogwarts kitchens when it appears to be asleep so that it will run back to the kitchen. Clicking the small branch on the path between the Whomping Willow and Hagrid's Hut so that Fang will fetch it and run down to Hagrid's. Clicking the disorganised books on the bench between the Library and the History of Magic Classroom so that they will be neatly stacked. Clicking the student with a sled standing in the alley between Three Broomsticks and Honeydukes so that he will slide down. Clicking the black spider on the spider web in the Forbidden Forest so that the web will flop down and the spider will bounce off to the tree roots, with the web springing back up afterward. Clicking the sack of gold in the walkway between Flourish and Blotts and the Leaky Cauldron (in front of Gringotts Wizarding Bank) so that a Niffler will pop out from nearby boxes and take the sack of gold, while accidentally dropping a few pieces of gold while it runs away. This option currently contains an unfixed glitch where after earning the energy, immediately reentering the location after going somewhere else, would have the sack of gold back present without being actually clickable. Clicking the tentacle of the Giant Squid around a rock in the Black Lake. The player cannot go over the energy limit except in a few instances (buying energy with diamonds, levelling up friendships, duelling club, getting energy from pets). Thus, tapping the above locations with a full energy bar will not help the player get more energy.
Sometimes when the player runs out of energy in the middle of a task, the option of watching a 30-second advertisement to get 3 bolts of energy would be presented. One must keep pressing until seeing the "Out of Energy" message in order to see this option.
In-App purchases The game offers a reward or purchase of coins and diamonds which can be used to buy in-app purchases including more energy or even clothes, hairstyles and accessories for the character. The coins will also need to be used to complete a certain part of the chapter including 100 coins to build a relationship with another character or learning to duel.

Their ranking will be placed on the Leaderboard for how many points they have earned overall for the House. They will be placed in a list of randomised students and their choices could have an impact on the House placement in the rankings overall.

Story, classes, and side quests The game-playing takes place in two sections: the story and the classes aspect, with the addition of side quests. The player will not need in each chapter to complete a class or a side quest and then move on to the story. They can complete in the order and the pace they decide. However, the game will not allow the player to move on to the next chapter or part of the chapter unless the player completes both the story and class.
To complete a class, the player earns stars within a time limit choice of either 1hr, 3hrs or 8hrs which affect the number of stars they can earn and therefore the rewards. If reaching the maximum star before the class hour is up, the player can leave class early. In each class, they will have to trace spells or rotate potions in a similar way to an old Pottermore feature. The player could be asked a question about the subject during the class, and providing the right answer will reward the player with their choice of energy, points, coins or diamonds. Everyone will receive the same questions but the order in which they are asked throughout each chapter will be randomised. For example, one player could answer the same question earlier in the game than another player who will receive another question instead of at that point.
Duelling When encountering a duel, the game offers three choices: Sneaky, Defensive and Aggressive. Sneaky defeats Defensive, Aggressive defeats Sneaky and Defensive defeats Aggressive. If losing, the player may spend a certain number of coins awarded in the game, and try again.
The occasional Duelling Club events may grant different prizes for every win; the Duelling Room is located in Dungeons; when opened, the player gets 3 DuellingTicketIcon tickets for the entire time period. For every duel won, the player would sometimes earn +4 energy or be rewarded with coins.
Some spells, potions, and other lessons cannot be learned by attending classes, and must be taught via side quests or achieving a certain number of wins in Duelling Club. For example: Leek jinx is a gifted 'Sneaky' Duelling move by defeating 20 duelists in a day while the club was still an exclusive club.
Friendship In the App update released on 30 May, 2018, players now are able to build friendships outside of the main story arc. This new feature disabled the old "Explore" function those three locations used to have, in which the player could enter, but only to look around as there was no interactive setup.
Meal with a Friend: Located at the Great Hall, 10hrs for the next cycle after playing; previously costs 85 CoinIcon coins. Play Gobstones: Located at the Courtyard, 16hrs for the next cycle after playing; previously costs 100 CoinIcon coins. Drink Butterbeer: Located at the Three Broomsticks, 16hrs for the next cycle after playing; previously costs 100 CoinIcon coins. Unlocked after Year 3 Chapter 8. The amount of experience gained peer interaction increases every time the player starts a new year. However, the required number of points is also higher for friends who are unlocked at later points in the game.
Some characters are unavailable in certain activities. Fred Weasley cannot be interacted with in the Three Broomsticks due to being a first-year student in Year 6. Murphy McNully cannot play Gobstones. After completing Year 5, Bill Weasley is not available for friendship interactions at all (due to his graduation), but he later becomes available again for Butterbeer. Rubeus Hagrid is not available for these interactions at all, and friendship with him is built by completing side quests involving magical creatures.
Sometimes, events make certain friends temporarily unavailable, for example Tulip Karasu at the beginning of Year 4, as she is first missing and then sent to the Hospital Wing.
Tapping the character icons of friends on the bottom right of the screen, shows friendship levels. After a certain level, the reward for levelling up friendship is energy. The higher the next friendship level, the higher the energy reward (+5, +10, +15, etc.) until reaching max friendship level. Reaching the maximum friendship level (10) gives a special reward.
Friendships:
Rowan Khanna Ben Copper Penny Haywood Bill Weasley Nymphadora Tonks Tulip Karasu Barnaby Lee Andre Egwu Charlie Weasley Jae Kim Badeea Ali Liz Tuttle Diego Caplan Talbott Winger Fred Weasley George Weasley Cedric Diggory Skye Parkin Murphy McNully Orion Amari Chiara Lobosca Rubeus Hagrid Beatrice Haywood Dobby Dating It is possible that, with future updates, the player will be able to date other characters as their friendship advances to a greater level; this was hinted by Andre Egwu at Hogsmeade during the third year. Some commentators believe that those may include same-sex dates as well as opposite-sex ones.[10]
Although no full relationships are present in the game yet, the player character escorts a date to events in the "Celestial Ball" and "First Date" achievement quests. The character's date for the quests is chosen from a group of six of the character's friends, three male and three female. Additionally, there are a few dialogue options where the player can mention having feelings for certain characters.
Pets In the App update released on 26 June, 2018, players now have the option to purchase pets. Players can purchase various types of pets, as listed below. After purchasing the base skin, the player can purchase additional skins for pets for coins, gems or brown notebooks. The player can keep a pet with them at all times, with additional pets being kept in the player's dormitory. Tapping and awakening sleeping pets can give players energy. In an update on the 28 September, 2018, it became possible to purchase magical pets, a crup and a streeler. Both of these are available to purchase with notebooks, a new currency available through completing classes and events. More magical pets have been added since, along with two Hallowe'en pets, which were originally event-exclusive but are now available for notebooks.

As the player tries to find out what happened to their older brother, Jacob, the existence of the Cursed Vaults is revealed, with Ice Knights and the Vanished Stairs decided to be researched upon. At the end of the school year, Hogwarts Headmaster Albus Dumbledore promises to discuss the Cursed Vaults and Jacob another time.

Aside from the three previous classes, the player gets to participate in Transfiguration in addition.

Meanwhile, the player, with the help of Rowan Khanna, continues to search for clues about the Vanished Stairs and the Cursed Vaults, sneaking into a common room from another House. They successfully locate the Vault of Ice, but results in Rowan being injured; the player is subsequently introduced to Bill Weasley for further help.
After being trained, the player and two friends venture into the Vault of Ice where they find a notebook and broken wand and a voice tells the player to never let "her" find the other ones. Near the end of the term, Dumbledore tells the player that they have something important to talk about at the end of next year.

Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry suffers from several Boggart attacks not long after the start of term, which is concluded to be caused by another Cursed Vault. The player, with the help of friends, locates and ventures into the Vault of Fear. With the use of Jacob's wand found in the last vault, they find a map of the Forbidden Forest and an arrow.
By the end of term, Dumbledore tells the player he has been looking for the world's finest Curse-Breaker, Patricia Rakepick and that he invited her to join them next school year. He also warns the player to not break any more rules.

Aside from the five previous classes, the player gets to participate in Care of Magical Creatures in addition, where they catch up and spend more time with Charlie Weasley.
At the start of term, Professor Albus Dumbledore introduces the students to Curse-Breaker Patricia Rakepick, who tells the students not to go look for the Cursed Vaults. Hogwarts students become largely affected by the Sleepwalking curse, with most students heading towards the Forbidden Forest, which is concluded to be a likely location for another vault. The broken arrow found in the previous vault is believed to have belonged to Centaurs; upon studying and asking around, the player befriended Centaur Torvus, who formerly owned the arrow.
As the player tries to locate the vault, Rakepick occasionally lends her Niffler, Sickleworth, to help out. The Forest Vault is found, the player hears the mysterious voice (believed to be Jacob's) telling the player that they're "nearly there", but that all vaults but the last one are false, meant to be distractions and traps. The voice reveals they are trapped within the next vault, and that only the player can free them, and that then they can find the final vault together, as "they" cannot be allowed to find it first. Using Torvus' arrow, a portrait of a dragon and a small sweater are revealed.
Due to a history of rule-breaking, the player is set to serve detention under Pitts the House-elf in the kitchens, beginning on the first day of their Fifth year, until the player has "learned their lesson". The player also learns that Rakepick will depart from the role of a curse-breaking consultant, and step in as the Defence Against the Dark Arts professor for the next school year.

Side Quests can carry over to the next school year, though it is suggested to complete them during the Year they were released in, in order to keep the plot within continuity.[36][37][38] While players are only able to interactively participate in Charms, Potions, and Flying during year 1, Transfiguration as an addition in year 2, Herbology as an addition in year 3; the characters of the players are actually attending all canon classes.[39] In Year 1 for example, if the player is in Hufflepuff, Rowan Khanna will mention Herbology and say it would have been more enjoyable were they not having to worry about a murderous plant. It was later brought up in the Side Quests of Chapter 8 in Year 1 in Hufflepuff's house meeting, where they discussed how to help their Head of House, Pomona Sprout, amongst other things. Depending on the players' choice, one conclusion was to help their Professors clean up after their class. In Year 2 Chapter 5, when visiting Rowan in the Hospital Wing, Jacob's sibling brought their star chart from Astronomy Class. The player may create their own name if they wish, but there are player names which are banned for unknown reasons, including the name Roland. However, should one feel that their names may be mistakenly excluded, the game developer, Jam City, stated that they welcome the feedback so they can take a closer look.[40] Interestingly, the name "Jacob" is not banned, meaning that both the player and his/her brother can share the same name. On the Leaderboard, the majority of the names of other students and their appearance are randomised for that player, and the only names which are the same for everyone will be for game-playing characters like Merula Snyde or Ben Copper. The randomised names are similar and can even be the same, with popular surnames being Nguyen, Hernandez, Miller, Young, and Carter. The following characters were attending Hogwarts or would have begun attending Hogwarts during the years the player attended from 1984 until 1991. However, they have not been mentioned in relation to the game or are known to appear in the game: Gwenog Jones (graduated 1986/1987), Marcus Flint (Sorted 1986), Penelope Clearwater and Oliver Wood (Sorted 1987), Roger Davies, Angelina Johnson, Lee Jordan, Adrian Pucey, Alicia Spinnet, Patricia Stimpson, and Kenneth Towler (Sorted 1989). There were a few other characters from Harry Potter's early years at Hogwarts who would have attended around the same time including Quidditch players and Prefects like Terence Higgs and Robert Hilliard. Based solely on their birth year (though it is not known if they attended Hogwarts), these characters could also have attended Hogwarts during that time: Dunbar Oglethorpe (b. 1968), Heathcote Barbary (b. 1974), Herman Wintringham (b. 1974), Stanley Shunpike (b. 1974/1975), and Gideon Crumb (b. 1975). Weird Sisters members Myron Wagtail (b. 1970), Kirley Duke (b. 1971), and Orsino Thruston (b. 1976) previously had not been confirmed having attended Hogwarts; their schooling is now confirmed in Year Two "Become a Rockstar!" Achievement. The additional Hogwarts staff from 1984 would have been composed of: Quirinus Quirrell (Muggle Studies, at least in the late 1980s). It is unknown if Bathsheda Babbling already taught Study of Ancient Runes. Even though the Duelling Club has been confirmed to feature in the game,[6] it was originally created by Gilderoy Lockhart in the 1992–1993 school year. It is possible that several different Duelling Clubs were founded and dissolved throughout the history of Hogwarts. In Chapter 1 of Year 2, the player will be told they need to sneak into another House's common room to find an object. The House common room they will sneak into will be different for every House. It could be randomised and ensures the player simply went to another House’s common room. If there's a pattern, it appears Ravenclaw and Slytherin will sneak into the Gryffindor common room, and Hufflepuff and Gryffindor will sneak into the Slytherin common room. During Year 1, Professor Snape is mentioned to be petitioning for the Defence Against the Dark Arts position. The current DADA teacher was having trouble, and the curse on the position is mentioned by Rowan. Within the APK file of the game there exist various images of shapes that correspond to the shapes one must draw in order to cast spells. Many of these shapes are different from the shapes that are used in the final game. For example, a shape like a number four is used to represent Alohomora (similar to Wonderbook: Book of Spells), while the game uses a more circular gesture. In Hogsmeade, some shop names are shortened: Three Broomsticks Inn as simply "Three Broomsticks" Dominic Maestro's Music Shop as simply "Maestro's Music Shop" This didn't occur in the Spanish version. The kitchens were previously shown as a location unlocked in Year 5 but the location was changed into a hidden location. In Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, in Chapter 9: The Writing on the Wall, Ron tells Harry "I think someone told me a story about a secret chamber at Hogwarts once. Might have been Bill." It could be that Bill has told Ron about the cursed vaults at some point between the 1985–1986 school year and the 1992–1993 school year. Achievement "Packmates" was previously titled and displayed as "Chiara" when it was released around 30 October 2019, but was renamed sometime in November that year. Mistakes Fixed errors When Year 3 was first released, in the friends' section, Bill Weasley's year showed up as 3, even though it was supposed to be 5, and was correctly shown on the Leaderboard. It was resolved in a couple of days. Andre Egwu and Ismelda Murk were initially missing from the Leaderboard; both were added after the update on 14 June 2018. Ismelda's surname was initially incorrectly shown as "Placeholder," but was corrected after the update on 21 June 2018. Liz Tuttle was initially missing from the Leaderboard; added after the update on 16 August 2018. Side Quest "Nearly Headless Nick": Sometimes appears four times in the side quest section, sometimes not at all. Sometimes, after reopening the app while waiting for a task, the ending cutscene of the previous task is shown again, although the waiting time does not reset, indicating that this is not due to the game not properly saving. Disappeared shortly after it was added, making it impossible for players to complete unless they were quick. All the above was later fixed on 28 June 2018. For a short while in Year 4, Defence Against the Dark Arts classes gave empathy instead of courage. The Ghoul lesson, however, already gave courage when the class was added. For a short while in Year 5, 5-star Defence Against the Dark Arts classes could be completed with just 45 energy in total, giving players a faster way to earn house points and crests for special events. This was, however, fixed after around a week. For a short window, Achievement "Howling Hallowe'en" was briefly located in Year 1, with Fenrir Greyback misspelled as "Fenrir Greenback" in its description, though the quest was no longer visible shortly afterward. This typo was fixed and the Achievement was added back to Year 1 on 18 October 2018. Prior to the release of the first part of Year 5, friend characters whose standard outfits differed from the Hogwarts uniform would wear their standard outfits when appearing in classes rather than the uniform (even though this would have got them in trouble in real life), this was fixed upon release of the start of year five so characters always wear their uniform in classes. In Liz Tuttle's Year 4 quiz, when asked which object was found in the Forest Vault, dragon portrait used to be an incorrect answer choice despite it being true. This was later corrected. When Muffliato was first featured as an upcoming Charms lesson in Year 5, around 7 March, 2019, it was incorrectly spelled as Muffilato; this was corrected on 21 March, 2019. In the classes section, the icon for Divinations was the same as for History of Magic. This was fixed on 25 July, 2019. Shortly after the start of Year 6, players received notifications for a quest called "PEN-FRIEND OR FOE" or "Y6_TLSQBeauxbatonsC1" (the latter was likely a code name for the former), but no signs of a new time-limited side quest. Strangely, when the Achievement actually came out, it was actually revealed to be Year 2 rather than Year 6. This may indicate that the quest was originally supposed to take place in Year 6, but was later changed to take place in Year 2 instead. After the player reached level 46/47/48, the XP bar no longer increased, but it did not say it is the maximum level like it did previously, as maximum levels have been increased multiple times. This mistake was later fixed in around late July or early August 2019. Following the Christmas update in December 2019, the student with the sled in Hogsmeade was missing, and players could not get energy from this spot. This was fixed soon afterward. George Weasley was initially not available as a friend following the completion of Year 6 Chapter 14 except for a few players, for whom friendship activities with him were glitched. This was fixed on 14 January, 2020. For a long time, Draught of Peace, one of the Year 5 Potions, was never marked as completed. This was fixed at some point by 27 February 2020. Following the completion of Year 6 Chapter 18, a different character specific character (whose model replaces Rowan's model) was displayed as Rowan Khanna on the Leaderboard. This was fixed by the time Chapter 22 was released, and the character is now shown with a different name. Overall The world-class broomstick Firebolt was released in 1993, yet during Flying Classes as early in 1984, Firebolt could be mentioned in a few situations, predating the broom's canon existence by almost a decade: The question "A Firebolt is a type of what?" could be asked. Rolanda Hooch provides a trivia hint, telling the player to familiarise with "Cleansweep, Comet, Nimbus and Firebolt." A reduced statement "Cleansweep, Comet and Nimbus" is now offered, though the one with Firebolt is still around. The question "Which of these is not a broom?" could be asked, Firebolt being one of the choices. A couple of known students are missing from the Leaderboard, including: Badeea Ali, Diego Caplan, Jae Kim, Chiara Lobosca and Talbott Winger (should appear in Year 1 onward) Angelica Cole, Chester Davies, Jane Court, and Felix Rosier (should appear in Years 1-3) Skye Parkin, Orion Amari, Erika Rath, and Bean (should at least appear in Years 1-3) Billingsley (should at least appear in Years 1-5) Emily Tyler (should appear in Years 1-5) Brennan Doyle (should appear in Years 1-6) Eliza (should appear in Year 2 onward) Chauncy and Philip (should at least appear in Year 2) Murphy McNully (should at least appear in Years 2-3) Luisa (should at least appear in Year 3) Penelope Clearwater, Marcus Flint, Percy Weasley, and Oliver Wood (should appear in Year 4 onward) Lucian Bole, Peregrine Derrick, Elora Dunn and Beatrice Haywood (should appear in Year 5 onward) Roger Davies, Cedric Diggory, Angelina Johnson, Lee Jordan, Adrian Pucey, Alicia Spinnet, Patricia Stimpson, Kenneth Towler, Cassius Warrington, Fred Weasley and George Weasley (should appear in Year 6 onward) Merula Snyde and Ismelda Murk have double entries on the Leaderboard after the update on 2 May, 2019. The question on who the Divination Professor was could be asked, and one of the options was Professor Umbridge. The player characters wouldn't receive that as an option, because Professor Umbridge worked at the Ministry of Magic and would not become the unlikely Defence Against the Dark Arts Professor until 1995. Though Severus Snape gave a speech about "little foolish wand-waving [in Potions class]" during his introduction for the subject for the 1991–1992 school year, in the game, he clearly used his wand to move phials of ingredients to his potions when he demonstrates. The students, on the other hand, add the same ingredients by hand, though in certain situations, they would cast Lumos in order to properly look through the shelves to search for ingredients. It is possible that Snape did not consider this kind of magic foolish, or he was referring to subjects like Charms, where amateur students wave their wand around without success towards creating the spell. Or, he changed his teaching method at some point before the 1991–1992 school year. In Defence Against the Dark Arts, Professor Rakepick occasionally asks a question involving Horcruxes. Since Horcruxes are extremely dark magic and not known to common Wizarding knowledge, it would be unlikely that she would have Horcruxes in her curriculum. Even if she wanted to (which is likely, given her nature), she would likely get into huge trouble if anyone tells. At the end of each year in the game, the House Cup is given out to the house with the most House points. While any house can win the cup in all of the years in the game, it is mentioned in Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone that Slytherin has won the cup for six straight years, from the 1985–1986 school year to the 1990 to 1991 school year, which take place during Jacob's sibling's second to seventh years. This would also mean that Slytherin didn't win the cup in the 1984–1985 school year, which would take place during Jacob's sibling's first year. However, in the game, Slytherin can win the House Cup in that year. All classes contain students from a specific House instead of having two Houses in a class (not including Jacob's sibling and Rowan) All the Slytherin students are in Potions. All the Gryffindor students are in Charms. All the Ravenclaw students are in Transfiguration All the Hufflepuff students are in Herbology. Flying Class, Care for Magical Creatures, Defence against the Dark Arts, and History of Magic are the only exceptions for there are students from every House (although Care of Magical Creatures shows a Slytherin majority, Charlie Weasley being the most notable exception). Ben and Penny were present in Care for Magical Creatures' first lesson but then disappeared after that, for they don't show up in any classes after that. In Potions Class, Jacob's sibling and Merula Snyde appear to share a cauldron. However, they are mentioned to brew potions separately. The hourglasses in the Great Hall do not accurately show the House Cup rankings. McGonagall is misspelled "McGongall" in some of Bill Weasley's friendship activities. Players on the Leaderboard with clothes from events with clothing that appears differently based on the player's house have clothes of the player's house regardless of the house they're in. Only one male fifth-year student and one female fifth-year student from each house can become Prefect each year. However, if Jacob's sibling is a male fifth year Gryffindor, they can become a Prefect despite Charlie Weasley, another male fifth year Gryffindor, also becoming a Prefect in the same year. There is a glitch affecting some players where locations in the Castle Grounds and Dungeons have switched places. The player character is used as a sort of teaching assistant to help Professor Flitwick in Charms classes despite being unqualified and despite Flitwick being otherwise depicted as a competent teacher that shouldn't have to rely on an unqualified child to help him. In October and December, locations are decorated with Hallowe'en and Christmas decorations (and snow is added to some locations in December as well), respectively, regardless of the player's progress. This can lead to quests having decorations if the player completes them in October or December, even if they are meant to take place in different months in-universe. Quidditch Season 1 In Chapter 1, Penny states that she and Jacob's sibling are in the section of whichever house the player is in, but they are always shown to be in Hufflepuff's section. In Chapter 3, it is stated that no games have been played that year, and in Chapter 8, it is stated that it is the first Quidditch Cup match. However, if the quest is meant to take place after Year 2 Chapter 6 (as Quidditch is specifically unlocked at that point), causes a contradiction, as the Gryffindor vs. Slytherin match is played in Year 2 Chapter 3. If Jacob's sibling becomes a permanent member of a Quidditch team in Year 5 or earlier, it conflicts with the fact that Jacob's sibling has to sneak into the common rooms during Quidditch matches in Year 5 Chapter 21. Andre Egwu and Charlie Weasley are absent for Ravenclaw and Gryffindor players, respectively, despite the fact that both are meant to be on the team starting in the second year (although Andre can be temporarily suspended from the team, this does not happen until years later in the "Poor Sport" side quest). This is a contradiction as specific unidentified characters are shown as the Seeker and Keeper of the player's team, and they are clearly not Charlie and Andre. Even with Andre as the reserve Seeker in the early Quidditch Seasons, the previous Keeper on the Ravenclaw Quidditch team should be Brennan Doyle. The first match is against Hufflepuff (Slytherin for Hufflepuffs). This means that unless there has been an unexplained rescheduling of games, only Ravenclaws play against the correct opponent. In the "Searching for a Comet" time-limited side quest, Ravenclaw players sneak into the Slytherin Common Room and get caught by Professor Snape, which contradicts Gemma Farley's claim that no non-Slytherins had managed to sneak into the Slytherin Common Room in seven centuries. For Gryffindor and Slytherin players, the Gryffindor-Slytherin match is played in Chapter 10 but during the match, Jacob's sibling is supposed to be sneaking into a common room. In Chapter 10, Murphy states that it is the second match of the year, but by that point, there have already been two matches (the player's team against Hufflepuff or Slytherin and the match between the other two teams). As such, it should be the third match of the year. It is possible for Slytherin to win the match against Gryffindor in Chapter 10, which contradicts the information given in the "Slytherin Schemes" side quest, where it is stated that Gryffindor won the match. In Chapter 11, the two petrified students can be seen in Hospital Wing, but they are not supposed to be there until Year 6. In the books, it is stated that Gryffindor won the Quidditch Cup in the 1985–1986 school year, the year during which Quidditch Season 1 is supposed to take place. However, for non-Gryffindor players, it is impossible for Gryffindor to win the Quidditch Cup as either the player's house, Ravenclaw or Slytherin (if the player is in Ravenclaw) wins. In the main story, it is established that the Ravenclaw Quidditch team is stuck in Cursed Ice at the end of Year 2, but this causes a contradiction if Jacob's sibling is a Ravenclaw, as they are not stuck in the ice. In the "THE QUIDDITCH CUP" Achievement quest, Ravenclaw has no trouble participating in the final match, regardless of the player's house. It is possible only reverse players got stuck, as Andre Egwu, one of the individuals known to be stuck in the Cursed Ice, is established to be a reserve player in Quidditch Season 2 Chapter 2. Season 2 The achievement "RIVALRY, RESPECT, AND RATH" is placed in Year 2. However, since Quidditch Season 1 is set in Year 2 and this achievement takes place in Season 2, it should be in Year 3. Year One Achievement "Party Planner" and its Side Quests seemingly contain continuity errors along with other mistakes, as documented here. Achievement "Howling Hallowe'en" and its Side Quests Fenrir Greyback remained in human form while his two companions were in werewolf forms; Chiara Lobosca was revealed to be a werewolf as well, yet also remained in her human form in the same scene. Penny revealed her fear for werewolves and having a friend killed by one, which originally debuts respectively in Chapter 1 of Year 3 and Side Quest "Penny for Your Thoughts", both over at least one year in the future of this Year 1 Achievement. Even if the event is meant to take place after "Penny for your thoughts", it could still be considered a mistake as Penny could drink the Forgetfulness Potion, causing her to forget about this event. Fenrir Greyback was noted to be strong, yet Jacob's sibling could easily defeat him in a duel. If Achievement "Howling Hallowe'en" is played during the player's second year when Ben is missing, Ben will be seen in the Charms Classroom when you interview Professor Flitwick. This is one of those Gameplay and Story Segregation situations. Liz Tuttle, Barnaby Lee, and Ismelda Murk are all visible and can be interacted with in certain tasks. The player meets all three of them in Year 3, as this is a Year 1 Achievement the player wouldn't have met them and shouldn't know who they are. Barnaby is also mentioned several times as if the player knows him as his uncle Cecil Lee plays a role in this event, yet as mentioned the player should have no clue who Barnaby is. Achievement "Christmas at Hogwarts" and its Side Quests The achievement is placed in Year 1, but everything in the event seems to imply it takes place in Year 3 or later. Jacob's sibling already knows Bill, Tonks, and Charlie. Prefect badges appear based on the player's progress. Penny mentions Scarlett, a mention which only makes sense if it happened before Side Quest "Penny for Your Thoughts" took place (sometime after the first herbology class during the 1986–1987 school year,) or if the player completed the said quest and persuaded Penny to not drink the Forgetfulness Potion. Arthur mentions the player having adventures with the Cursed Vaults, but the player does not enter a Cursed Vault until the end of Year 2. Information on whether Percy Weasley is already attending Hogwarts seems to be contradicting. Molly mentions Percy being at home alongside his younger siblings (Bill and Charlie specifically had to stay at Hogwarts due to the mess at the Burrow) but the player only wonders about meeting Fred, George, Ron, and Ginny. It is possible the player is simply not interested in meeting Percy. Year Two In Side Quest "Help Hagrid!," when the player helps save Fang from Devil's Snare, Hagrid asks the player what he should name the dog and says he's a new puppy. However, Fang could be found in the game from the beginning in Year 1 which was a year ago by that point in the game. Fang wouldn't be new by then and it makes no sense why Hagrid would wait that long before naming him. In Side Quest "Sleep Walker," the sleep-walking girl's appearance and house are inconsistent. Achievement "Become an Honorary Rocker" and its Side Quests This quest occurs after the completion of Chapter 4, but the player only befriends Bill after completing Chapter 6, which seems odd, as the side quest includes options that are only available by having a certain friendship level with Bill. Orsino Thruston is already at Hogwarts. However, he was born in 1976, meaning he should not start at Hogwarts until at least Year 4. In the Artefact Room, the player tells the player (using the player character's name) to keep going. It seems more reasonable that Myron, the only other person in the room, is supposed to say the line instead. Some characters (such as Barnaby Lee, Nymphadora Tonks, Ismelda Murk, Talbott Winger, Badeea Ali, Diego Caplan, Jae Kim, Liz Tuttle, Tulip Karasu, and Charlie Weasley) that the player was established to not having met during Year Two are visible during the concert section. Whilst it is possible for these characters to attend the concert without having personally met the player, some such as Barnaby and Tonks can be interacted with during this section as if the player knows them, however as this is set prior to the player meeting them they would not know who these people are. Achievement "Hosting the Beauxbatons" and its Side Quests When Rowan first talks in the quest, a voice clip from Jae Kim is used instead. Despite the fact that the quest is listed as Year 2, Year 5 players, after completing Achievements occurring in-universally in later years, and even getting an Achievement (Packmates) that was released in the real world later than this one, this Achievement is for an unknown reason still not accessible. Achievement "Packmates" and its Side Quests The quest is only available after the completion of Chapter 5,[citation needed] but there is a Quidditch match in Year 2 Chapter 3, and Quidditch matches are normally not played until November while Ben mentions that it is Hallowe'en. Even if it is set before Chapter 3, it still causes a contradiction, as Ben is supposed to be missing at that point. In the meal with Chiara the first two questions are repeated over and over for some players, with some also reporting that the correct answer seemed to change each time as well. Despite the fact that the quest is listed as Year 2, there are various dialogue options that alter depending on the player's year. For example, for Year 6 players, Ben's dialogue is changed to match his new personality despite this new personality only appearing in Year 6 and not as far back as Year 2, and the player character can mention that they have already found their brother which happened at the end of Year 5, over three years after this side quest takes place, whereas Year 5 players before the characteristic change still get the Ben with his old personality. For Years 5 and 6 players, Pippa is still said to be a third-year rather than a sixth or seventh year, which should be the case if the dialogue was year adjusted, or else Pippa would not start Hogwarts until 1986 or 1987 and should not be present for players in Years 2. The attributes required to have a meal with and duel Chiara during the Side Quest are based on the player's attribute levels (with the meal being the same attributes and the duel one higher on each) leading to later year player's to eat with and duel a Chiara that has much higher stats than what a second-year typically would have. Achievement "Christmas at the Burrow" and its Side Quests The Achievement is set in Year 2, but like with the "Packmates" achievement, the dialogue is changed depending on the player's year. In Year 6, Bill wears his Curse-Breaker outfit and states that he is no longer a student at the school, and the twins are mentioned to go home. Bill tells the player they should have seen how Fred and George dressed a gnome the previous year. However, with this achievement set in Year 2 and "Christmas at Hogwarts" set in Year 1, these achievements should occur in consecutive years and, as such, Bill spent the previous Christmas at Hogwarts with the player and other friends, and as such, he should not have been able to see the gnome dressed by Fred and George either. In the final task, Bill also compares the decorations at the Burrow to the ones in the previous year. The hands on the Weasley Clock are constantly moving, even though they should all point at home. Year Three In Side Quest "Giant Problems," when Fang needed to be found, the player can continue gaining one energy by clicking on the branch on the path to Hagrid's Hut, which makes the missing Fang appear. Jacob's sibling can access Hogsmeade in Chapter 1 if choosing to start the "Giant Problems" Side Quest. However, in Chapter 2, it will appear as if Jacob's sibling had never been to Hogsmeade. In Side Quest "Farewell My Prefect," when brewing the Babbling Beverage and choosing to read the instructions, the player mentions Penny being there. Jacob's sibling and the Prefect are the only two in the Potions Classroom at the moment. Mice to Snuffboxes is learned in Transfiguration Class in Year 3. However, during the 1991–1992 school year, Harry and his Transfiguration Class learns this same spell in their first year and even have it on their practical exam.[41] It could be that Professor McGonagall changed the order that she taught certain spells between Jacob's sibling's time at Hogwarts and Harry's time at Hogwarts. When Year 3 is completed, it is shown as "Chapter 8 completed" when it should be Chapter 11. For players who have reached Chapter 11 before its release on 7 June 2018, they do not get to see the official chapter title. Achievement "Become an Animagus" and its Side Quests The quest is supposed to happen directly after Chapter 3. However, at that point, the player is not yet friends with Tulip Karasu and Barnaby Lee, but they are their friends during the quest. If Jacob's sibling is in Hufflepuff, the exclamation of surprise upon seeing Penny Haywood in their Potions class would make no sense, for Penny should have been in the same class to begin with. During the Gobstones game with Talbott Winger, Charlie Weasley's voice clips are used. Achievement "The Frog Choir" and its Side Quests The achievement is placed in Year 3, however, Chester is shown to be no longer attending Hogwarts, when he is only supposed to be graduating at the end of that year. Achievement "Birds Of A Feather" and its Side Quests At one point, Jacob's sibling mentions being an unregistered Animagus even if they chose to register (although another point in the side quest takes this choice into account). Talbott fakes a letter from Rakepick to get Merula to the Courtyard, but as the quest is set in Year 3, Rakepick should not be at Hogwarts yet. When searching in the Training Grounds, the characters mention grass and spotting something white. However, if the player plays the quest in December, the area is covered in snow, and as such, these mentions do not make sense. Year Four Side Quest "The Trouble with Tonks" In the library, a speech bubble is shown above nothing. When tapped, it shows the name Andre, even though Andre is nowhere to be seen. It is mentioned that Bellatrix Lestrange and Filch did not get along while she was attending Hogwarts, but Bellatrix graduated in 1969 or 1970[42] while Filch only started working at Hogwarts in around 1973.[43] On the training grounds, two models of Tonks briefly appear before the beginning of the duel. If the player was confirmed to be selected as a Prefect in the following year, some characters on the Leaderboard can be seen wearing Prefect badges, even if they are below Year 4. The player's character would also have the badge on display when donning school uniform, even though they technically haven't actually become one at that point. The player will also wear a Prefect badge in all side quests taking before Year 4 in parts where they are forced to wear robes. Achievement "Conjure a Patronus" and its Side Quests The player has the ability to use Legilimency on Merula despite the fact that they do not know they have the ability until their fifth year. Achievement "First Date" Ismelda mentions what happened in the "Crushed" side quest, which takes place a year later. Charlie mentions Frog Spawn Soap ending up in his bath, which happens in Year 5. If MC chooses to date Penny and to fancy Penny in Year 5, the reveal seems to be surprising despite the fact that the two already went on a date (although at that point in Year 5, the game had no way of knowing if the two had already been on a date). Year Five For all of Year 5, Bill is still wearing the Prefect badge, when, as a Head Boy, he should be wearing the Head Boy badge instead. Side Quest "Yer a Prefect" On the training grounds, two models of Elora Dunn briefly appear before the beginning of the duel. During the meeting of the Prefects in the Three Broomsticks Inn, Bill Weasley states that he chose to not wear his robes and Prefect badge to the meeting. However, Bill is still wearing his Prefect badge at the meeting. For some players, Beatrice Haywood's head and arms appear detached from the rest of her body when she is stuck in a portrait. Jae Kim and Badeea Ali can be interacted with in classes as early as Year 5 Chapter 1 but when the player meets them in the story, they are complete strangers. In the "Animagus Adventure" side quest, the name of the Jobberknoll is occasionally misspelled as "Jabberknoll." Achievement "Valentine's Day" and its side quests The quest activates after Chapter 4, but this is too early in Year 5 to be taking place in February. In Year 5 Chapter 9, Hagrid mentions his birthday being soon, which would indicate that all Chapters until Chapter 9 take place between 1 September and 6 December. However, in a school year, Valentine's Day is after Hagrid's birthday, and as such, the quest should take place after Chapter 9. At one point when students are at the Three Broomsticks, Tonks states that it is already Valentine's Day. However, in 1989, 14 February was on a Tuesday, and as such, students should not be allowed to enter Hogsmeade on that day. Achievement "The All-Wizard Tournament" and its side quests The death of Rowan Khanna is mentioned on several occasions (for players who have already completed Year 6 Chapter 18), but this event does not take place until Year 6. Hogwarts is stated to have 63 Triwizard Tournament victories, but their 63rd victory only happens afterward in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. It is possible that the Wizarding World article only includes victories before the original cancellation of the tournament, but this is unlikely, as the article also mentions Fleur's participation in the Battle of Hogwarts, which happens even later in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.[44] At the end when the winner is announced, Fred and George are present in the Great Hall even though they should not be attending Hogwarts yet. Achievement "Ordinary Wizarding Level" happens after Chapter 24. There are, however, multiple classes in Chapter 25 onwards. In Chapter 27, it is stated that the O.W.L.s has already happened, but there are still multiple classes to take. Things learned afterward did not come up in the test. Year Six Despite the fact that the characters are now meant to take N.E.W.T. level subjects, the classes appear identical to the ones in earlier years. For example, in Charms class, all students are from Gryffindor and the player's house. Nymphadora Tonks, a Hufflepuff, had to take N.E.W.T. level Charms in order to become an Auror but is absent. The Divination class at the end of the chapter appears to be their first Divination class ever, but as they are sixth years, they should have already had Divination for three years. The player continues taking Potions even if they received an O.W.L. grade lower than Outstanding, but Snape typically only allows students who got an O to continue Potions, at least if the advice McGonagall gave to Harry for NEWT subjects is accurate. Similarly, the player continues taking other subjects (such as Transfiguration) with an Acceptable grade even if the requirement is Exceeds Expectations.

🌐 The Global Network 🌐 Asian witchcraft From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to navigationJump to search This article needs additional citations for verification. Please help improve this article by adding citations to reliable sources. Unsourced material may be challenged and removed. Find sources: "Asian witchcraft" – news · newspapers · books · scholar · JSTOR (December 2006) (Learn how and when to remove this template message) Asian witchcraft refers to any or all types of witchcraft practiced in Asia. Contents 1 Middle East 1.1 Ancient Near East 1.2 Torah 1.3 New Testament 1.4 Islam 1.5 Judaism 2 India 3 Japan 3.1 Fox Employers 3.2 In popular culture 4 Korea 5 Central Asia 6 References Middle East Ancient Near East See also: Lilith The belief in witchcraft and its practice seem to have been widespread in the past. Both in ancient Egypt and in Babylonia it played a conspicuous part, as existing records plainly show. It will be sufficient to quote a short section from the Code of Hammurabi (about 2000 BC). If a man has put a spell upon another man and it is not justified, he upon whom the spell is laid shall go to the holy river; into the holy river shall he plunge. If the holy river overcome him and he is drowned, the man who put the spell upon him shall take possession of his house. If the holy river declares him innocent and he remains unharmed the man who laid the spell shall be put to death. He that plunged into the river shall take possession of the house of him who laid the spell upon him.[1] Torah See also: Witchcraft and divination in the Torah In the Tanakh, references to witchcraft are frequent, and the strong condemnations of such practices which we read there do not seem to be based so much upon the supposition of fraud as upon the "abomination" of belief in the magic in itself. Verses such as Book of Deuteronomy 18:11-12 and Book of Exodus 22:18 "Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live" provided scriptural justification for Christian witch-hunters in the early modern period. The word "witch" is a translation of the Hebrew כָּשַׁף kashaf, "sorceress". The Bible provides some evidence that these commandments were enforced under the Hebrew kings: And Saul disguised himself, and put on other raiment, and he went, and two men with him, and they came to the woman by night: and he said, I pray thee, divine unto me by the familiar spirit, and bring me him up, whom I shall name unto thee. And the woman said unto him, Behold, thou knowest what Saul hath done, how he hath cut off those that have familiar spirits, and the wizards, out of the land: wherefore then layest thou a snare for my life, to cause me to die?"[2] The Hebrew verb הכרית, translated in the King James Version as "cut off", can also be translated as "kill wholesale" or "exterminate". New Testament See also: Christian views on magic The New Testament condemns the practice as an abomination, just as the Old Testament had (Epistle to the Galatians 5:20, compared with the Book of Revelation 21:8; 22:15; and Acts of the Apostles 8:9; 13:6). There is some debate, however, as to whether the word used in Galatians and Revelation, Koinē Greek: φαρμακεία pharmakeía, is properly translated as "sorcery", as the word was commonly used to describe the malicious use of drugs. Islam Divination and magic in Islam encompass a wide range of practices, including black magic, warding off the evil eye, the production of amulets and other magical equipment, evocation, cleromancy, astrology and physiognomy. Muslims, followers of the religion of Islam, do commonly believe in the existence of magic and black magic (sihr), and explicitly forbid the practice of it. Sihr is the word for "black magic" in Arabic. The best known reference to magic in Islam is in surah al-Falaq, which is a prayer to ward off black magic. Say: I seek refuge with the Lord of the Dawn From the mischief of created things; From the mischief of Darkness as it overspreads; From the mischief of those who practise secret arts; And from the mischief of the envious one as he practises envy. (Quran 113:1-5, translation by YusufAli) Many Muslims believe that a person taught black magic to mankind: And they follow that which the devils falsely related against the kingdom of Solomon. Solomon disbelieved not; but the devils disbelieved, teaching mankind sorcery and that which was revealed to the two angels in Babel, Harut and Marut. Nor did they (the two angels) teach it to anyone till they had said: We are only a temptation, therefore disbelieve not (in the guidance of Allah). And from these two (angels) people learn that by which they cause division between man and wife; but they injure thereby no-one save by Allah's leave. And they learn that which harmeth them and profiteth them not. And surely they do know that he who trafficketh therein will have no (happy) portion in the Hereafter; and surely evil is the price for which they sell their souls, if they but knew. (al-Qur'an 2:102) However, whereas performing miracles or good magic in Islamic thought is from Messengers (al-Rusul – those who came with a new revealed text) and Prophets (al-anbiya – those who came to continue the specific law and Revelation of a previous Messenger); supernatural acts are also believed to be performed by awliya – the spiritually accomplished, through ma'rifa – and referred to as karamat "extraordinary acts". Disbelief in the miracles of the Prophets is considered an act of disbelief; belief in the miracles of any given pious individual is not. Neither are regarded as magic, but as signs of Allah at the hands of those close to him that occur by his will and his alone.[citation needed] Muslim practitioners commonly seek the help of the jinn in magic (singular jinni). It is a common belief that jinns can possess a human, thus requiring exorcism. (The belief in jinn in general is part of the Muslim faith. Muslim ibn al-Hajjaj narrated the Prophet said: "Allah created the angels from light, created the jann from the pure flame of fire, and Adam from that which was described to you (i.e., the clay.)") Students of the history of religion have linked several magical practices in Islam with pre-Islamic Turkish and East African customs. Most notable of these customs is the zar.[3][4] Judaism Jewish law views the practice of witchcraft as being laden with idolatry and/or necromancy; both being serious theological and practical offenses in Judaism. According to Traditional Jewish sources, it is acknowledged that while magic exists, it is forbidden to practice it on the basis that it usually involves the worship of other gods. Rabbis of the Talmud also condemned magic when it produced something other than illusion, giving the example of two men who use magic to pick cucumbers (Sanhedrin 67a). The one who creates the illusion of picking cucumbers should not be condemned, only the one who actually picks the cucumbers through magic. However, some of the Rabbis practiced "magic" themselves. For instance, Rabbah created a person and sent him to Rabbi Zera, and Rabbi Hanina and Rabbi Oshaia studied every Sabbath evening together and created a small calf to eat (Sanhedrin 65b). In these cases, the "magic" was seen more as divine miracles (i.e., coming from God rather than pagan gods) than as witchcraft. India Belief in the supernatural is strong in certain parts of India, and lynchings for witchcraft are reported in the press from time to time.[5][6] According to the Indian National Crime Records Bureau, at least 2100 suspected witches (known as dayan)[7] were murdered between 2000 and 2012.[8] It is believed that an average of over 150 women per year are killed accused of being witches, concentrated across central India.[7] Murder is commonly carried out by means of being burned, hacked or bludgeoned to death, often preceded by ritual humiliation, such as being stripped naked, smeared with filth and forced to eat excrement.[7] For those accused of witchcraft who are not murdered, nearly all suffer permanent ostracism or banishment and their families face social stigma.[7] Japan In Japanese folklore the witch can commonly be separated into two categories: those who employ snakes as familiars, and those who employ foxes.[9] Fox Employers The fox witch is by far the most commonly seen witch figure in Japan. Differing regional beliefs set those who use foxes into two separate types: the kitsune-tsukai, and the kitsune-mochi. The first of these, the kitsune-tsukai, gains his fox familiar by bribing it with its favourite foods. The kitsune-tsukai then strikes up a deal with the fox, typically promising food and daily care in return for the fox's magical services. The fox of Japanese folklore is a powerful trickster, imbued with powers of shape changing, possession, and illusion. These creatures can be either nefarious; disguising themselves as women in order to trap men, or they can be benign forces as in the story of 'The Grateful Foxes'.[10] However, once a fox enters the employ of a man it almost exclusively becomes a force of evil to be feared. A fox under the employ of a human can provide him with many services. The fox can turn invisible and be set out to find secrets and it still retains its many powers of illusion which its master will often put to use in order to trick his enemies. The most feared power the kitsune-tsukai possesses is his ability to command his fox to possess other humans. In popular culture Magical girl genre may be the most commonly known to feature witchcraft, but it appears liberally in any works of fiction where such supernatural power can exist, despite the fact that such magic resembles more of western witchcraft than an oriental counterpart. Evil witch antagonists, borne out of the European concept of witch, are popular; however, their powers rarely stem from worshipping devils. Korea Attempting to influence others through spells in Joseon was widely censured by the royal court. On discovering that Consort Hwi-bin Kim had used witchcraft on the crown prince, Sejong the Great described her as a "sorcerer" or "evil monster" (hanja: 妖邪) and had her thrown out of the palace.[11] Central Asia Witchcraft is a feature of traditional mythology in Kazakhstan and Tajikistan documented since the 16th century. It is believed that once a human dies their soul is owned by the witch that murdered them.[citation needed] References International Standard Bible Encyclopedia article on Witchcraft, last accessed 31 March 2006.

Harry Potter Crazies The StoriesAll CharactersHogwarts HousesHogwartsGallery Picture Gryffindor Picture Gryffindor values courage, bravery, nerve and chivalry. Its mascot is the lion, and its colours are scarlet and gold. The Gryffindor motto is "Their daring, nerve and chivalry set Gryffindors apart". The Head of this house is the Transfiguration teacher and Deputy Headmistress, Minerva McGonagall, and the house ghost is Sir Nicholas de Mimsy-Porpington, more commonly known as Nearly Headless Nick. According to Rowling, Gryffindor corresponds roughly to the element of fire. The founder of the house is Godric Gryffindor.
The Gryffindor common room is located in one of the castle's highest towers, the entrance to which is located on the seventh floor in the east wing of the castle and is guarded by a painting of The Fat Lady, who is garbed in a pink dress. She permits entry only after being given the correct password, as was distinguished in the third book, when Sirius Black tried forcing entry into the tower, only to be blocked by The Fat Lady after he could not give the correct password. In the first book, Neville Longbottom tends to forget the password and must wait near the painting until other Gryffindors arrive to open the way.
Slytherin Picture Slytherin house values ambition, cunning, leadership, and resourcefulness; the Sorting Hat said in Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone that Slytherins will do anything to get their way. The house mascot of Slytherin is the serpent, and the house colours are green and silver. The Slytherin motto is "Slytherin will help you on your way to greatness". Salazar Slytherin founded the house. The Head of House is Severus Snape until near the end of the sixth book. Then, Horace Slughorn, the previous Head of House, comes out of retirement re-assuming authority. The ghost of Slytherin house is The Bloody Baron. According to Rowling, Slytherin corresponds roughly to the element of water. The Slytherin dormitories and common room are reached through a bare stone wall in the dungeons. The Slytherin common room is a long, low, dungeon-style room, located under the Hogwarts Lake, furnished with green lamps and carved armchairs. The room is described in the second book as having a greenish glow. The Sorting Hat claims that blood purity is a factor in selecting Slytherins, although this is not mentioned until the fifth book. There is no reason to believe, however, that Muggle-born students are not sorted there, merely that pure-blooded students are more desirable to that house, as there are several examples of half-bloods in the house (such as Snape and Voldemort). In Deathly Hallows, a group of Snatchers claim that "not many Mudbloods" are sorted into Slytherin.
Ravenclaw Picture Ravenclaw values intelligence, creativity, learning, and wit. The house mascot is an eagle and the house colours are blue and bronze (blue and grey in the films). The Ravenclaw motto is "Wit beyond measure is man's greatest treasure". The head of this house is the Charms professor, Filius Flitwick, and the house ghost is The Grey Lady. According to Rowling, Ravenclaw corresponds roughly to the element of air. The founder of this house is Rowena Ravenclaw.
The dormitories are located in Ravenclaw Tower, on the west side of Hogwarts. The common room, which went undescribed in the series until the climax of Deathly Hallows, is round and filled with blue hangings and armchairs, has a domed ceiling painted with stars and features a replica statue of Rowena wearing her diadem. Harry also notes that Ravenclaws "have a spectacular view of the surrounding mountains". A logical riddle must be solved to gain entry, whereas the Gryffindor and Slytherin common rooms only require a password (Hufflepuffs need to tap a barrel in the rhythm of "Helga Hufflepuff"), indicating that it may be easier for those students from other houses who possess a high degree of intelligence to enter this common room than others. Professor McGonagall, the head of the Gryffindor House, solves the riddle accurately.
HufflePuff Picture Hufflepuff values hard work, patience, justice, and loyalty. The house mascot is the badger, and canary yellow and black are its colours. The Hufflepuff motto is "Those patient Hufflepuffs are true and unafraid of toil". The Head of this house is the Herbology teacher Pomona Sprout, and the house ghost is The Fat Friar. According to Rowling, Hufflepuff corresponds roughly to the element of earth. The founder of this house is Helga Hufflepuff.
The Hufflepuff dormitories and common room entrance "is concealed in a stack of large barrels in a nook on the right hand side of the kitchen corridor." To enter, one must tap the barrel two from the bottom in the middle of the second row in the rhythm of 'Helga Hufflepuff'. Unlike any other house, the Hufflepuff common room has a repelling device that douses the illegal entrant in vinegar if the wrong lid is tapped or the rhythm is wrong. The Hufflepuff common room is filled with yellow hangings and fat armchairs and it has little underground tunnels leading to the dormitories, all of which have perfectly round doors, like barrel tops (much like a badger sett)

NEWS & FEATURES QUIZZES J.K. ROWLING ARCHIVE DISCOVER STARTING HARRY POTTER HOGWARTS SORTING FAN CLUB PINS SHOP MinistryOfMagic PM B5C7M1 InsideMinistryOfMagic Moment Ministers for Magic By J.K. Rowling Originally published on pottermore logo on Aug 10th 2015
SHARE The Ministry of Magic was formally established in 1707 with the appointment of the very first man to hold the title ‘Minister for Magic’, Ulick Gamp.\* The Minister for Magic is democratically elected, although there have been times of crisis in which the post has simply been offered to an individual without a public vote (Albus Dumbledore was made such an offer, and turned it down repeatedly). There is no fixed limit to a Minister’s term of office, but he or she is obliged to hold regular elections at a maximum interval of seven years. Ministers for Magic tend to last much longer than Muggle ministers. Generally speaking, and despite many a moan and grumble, their community is behind them in a way that is rarely seen in the Muggle world. This is perhaps due to a feeling, on the part of wizards, that unless they are seen to manage themselves competently, the Muggles might try to interfere. The Muggle Prime Minister has no part in appointing the Minister for Magic, whose election is a matter only for the magical community themselves. All matters relating to the magical community in Britain are managed solely by the Minister for Magic, and he has sole jurisdiction over his Ministry. Emergency visits to the Muggle Prime Minister by the Minister for Magic are announced by a portrait of Ulick Gamp (first Minister for Magic) that hangs in the Muggle Prime Minister’s study in number 10 Downing Street.
No Muggle Prime Minister has ever set foot in the Ministry of Magic, for reasons most succinctly summed up by ex-Minister Dugald McPhail (term of office 1858-1865): ‘Their puir wee braines couldnae cope wi’ it.’
Minister: Ulick Gamp Term of Office: 1707 - 1718 Previously head of the Wizengamot, Gamp had the onerous job of policing a fractious and frightened community adjusting to the imposition of the International Statute of Secrecy. His greatest legacy was to found the Department of Magical Law Enforcement.
Damocles Rowle 1718 - 1726 Rowle was elected on a platform of being ‘tough on Muggles’. Censured by the International Confederation of Wizards, he was eventually forced to step down.
Perseus Parkinson 1726 - 1733 Attempted to pass a bill making it illegal to marry a Muggle. Misread the public mood; the wizarding community, tired of anti-Muggle sentiment and wanting peace, voted him out at the first opportunity.
Eldritch Diggory 1733 - 1747 Popular Minister who first established an Auror recruitment programme. Died in office (dragon pox).
Albert Boot 1747 - 1752 Likeable, but inept. Resigned after a mismanaged goblin rebellion.
Basil Flack 1752 - 1752 Shortest serving Minister. Lasted two months; resigned after the goblins joined forces with werewolves.
Hesphaestus Gore 1752 - 1770 Gore was one of the earliest Aurors. Successfully put down a number of revolts by magical beings, although historians feel his refusal to contemplate rehabilitation programmes for werewolves ultimately led to more attacks. Renovated and reinforced the prison of Azkaban.
Maximilian Crowdy 1770 - 1781 Father of nine Crowdy was a charismatic leader who routed out several extremist pure-blood groups planning Muggle attacks. His mysterious death in office has been the subject of numerous books and conspiracy theories.
Porteus Knatchbull 1781 - 1789 Was called in confidentially in 1782 by the Muggle Prime Minister of the day, Lord North, to see whether he could help with King George III’s emerging mental instability. Word leaked out that Lord North believed in wizards, and he was forced to resign after a motion of no confidence.
Unctuous Osbert 1789 - 1798 Widely seen as too much influenced by pure-bloods of wealth and status.
Artemisia Lufkin 1798 - 1811 First female Minister for Magic. Established Department of International Magical Co-operation and lobbied hard and successfully to have a Quidditch World Cup tournament held in Britain during her term.
Grogan Stump 1811 - 1819 Very popular Minister for Magic, a passionate Quidditch fan (Tutshill Tornados), established Department of Magical Games and Sports and managed to steer through legislation on magical beasts and beings that had long been a source of contention.
Josephina Flint 1819 - 1827 Revealed an unhealthy anti-Muggle bias in office; disliked new Muggle technology such as the telegraph, which she claimed interfered with proper wand function.
Ottaline Gambol 1827 - 1835 A much more forward-looking Minister, Gambol established committees to investigate Muggle brainpower which seemed, during this period of the British Empire, to be greater than some wizards had credited.
Radolphus Lestrange 1835 - 1841 Reactionary who attempted to close down the Department of Mysteries, which ignored him. Eventually resigned due to ill health, which was widely rumoured to be inability to cope with the strains of office.
Hortensia Milliphutt 1841 - 1849 Introduced more legislation than any other sitting Minister, much of it useful, but some wearisome (hat pointiness and so on), which ultimately resulted in her political downfall.
Evangeline Orpington 1849 - 1855 A good friend of Queen Victoria’s, who never realised she was a witch, let alone Minister for Magic. Orpington is believed to have intervened magically (and illegally) in the Crimean War.
Priscilla Dupont 1855 - 1858 Conceived an irrational loathing of the Muggle Prime Minister Lord Palmerston, to an extent that caused such trouble (coins turning to frogspawn in his coat pockets, etc) that she was forced to step down. Ironically, Palmerston was forced to resign by the Muggles two days later.
Dugald McPhail 1858 - 1865 A safe pair of hands. While the Muggle parliament underwent a period of marked upheaval, the Ministry of Magic knew a period of welcome calm.
Faris “Spout-hole” Spavin 1865 - 1903 Longest-ever serving Minister for Magic, and also the most long-winded, he survived an ‘assassination attempt’ (kicking) from a centaur who resented the punchline of Spavin’s infamous ‘a centaur, a ghost and a dwarf walk into a bar’ joke. Attended Queen Victoria’s funeral in an admiral’s hat and spats, at which point the Wizengamot suggested gently that it was time he move aside (Spavin was 147 when he left office).
Venusia Crickerly 1903 - 1912 Second ex-Auror to take office and considered both competent and likeable, Crickerly died in a freak gardening accident (Mandrake related).
Archer Evermonde 1912 - 1923 In post during the Muggle First World War, Evermonde passed emergency legislation forbidding witches and wizards to get involved, lest they risk mass infractions of the International Statute of Secrecy. Thousands defied him, aiding Muggles where they could.
Lorcan McLaird 1923 - 1925 A gifted wizard, but an unlikely politician, McLaird was an exceptionally taciturn man who preferred to communicate in monosyllables and expressive puffs of smoke that he produced through the end of his wand. Forced from office out of sheer irritation at his eccentricities.
Hector Fawley 1925 - 1939 Undoubtedly voted in because of his marked difference to McLaird, the ebullient and flamboyant Fawley did not take sufficiently seriously the threat presented to the world wizarding community by Gellert Grindelwald. He paid with his job.
Leonard Spencer-Moon 1939 - 1948 A sound Minister who rose through the ranks from being tea-boy in the Department of Magical Accidents and Catastrophes. Oversaw a great period of international wizarding and Muggle conflict. Enjoyed a good working relationship with Winston Churchill.
Wilhelmina Tuft 1948 - 1959 Cheery witch who presided over a period of welcome peace and prosperity. Died in office after discovering, too late, her allergy to Alihotsy-flavoured fudge.
Ignatius Tuft 1959 - 1962 Son of the above. A hard-liner who capitalised on his mother’s popularity to gain election. Promised to institute a controversial and dangerous Dementor breeding program and was forced from office.
Nobby Leach 1962 - 1968 First Muggle-born Minister for Magic, his appointment caused consternation among the old (pure-blood) guard, many of whom resigned government posts in protest. Has always denied having anything to do with England’s 1966 World Cup Win. Left office after contracting mysterious illness (conspiracy theories abound).
Eugenia Jenkins 1968 - 1975 Jenkins dealt competently with pure-blood riots during Squib Rights marches in the late sixties, but was soon confronted with the first rise of Lord Voldemort. Jenkins was soon ousted from office as inadequate to the challenge.
Harold Minchum 1975 - 1980 Seen as a hard-liner, he placed even more Dementors around Azkaban, but was unable to contain what looked like Voldemort’s unstoppable rise to power.
Millicent Bagnold 1980 - 1990 A highly able Minister. Had to answer to the International Confederation of Wizards for the number of breaches of the International Statute of Secrecy on the day and night following Harry Potter’s survival of Lord Voldemort’s attack. Acquitted herself magnificently with the now infamous words: ‘I assert our inalienable right to party,’ which drew cheers from all present.
Cornelius Fudge 1990 - 1996 A career politician overly-fond of the old guard. Persistent denial of the continuing threat of Lord Voldemort ultimately cost him his job.
Rufus Scrimgeour 1996 - 1997 The third ex-Auror to gain office, Scrimgeour died in office at the hands of Lord Voldemort.
Pius Thicknesse 1997 - 1998 Omitted from most official records, as he was under the Imperius Curse for his entire term of office, and unconscious of anything that he was doing.
Kingsley Shacklebolt 1998 - present Oversaw the capture of Death Eaters and Voldemort supporters following the death of Lord Voldemort. Initially named as ‘caretaker Minister’, Shacklebolt was subsequently elected to the office.
*Prior to 1707, the Wizards’ Council was the longest serving (though not the only) body to govern the magical community in Britain. After the imposition of the International Statute of Secrecy in 1692, however, the wizarding community needed a more highly structured, organised and more complex governing structure than they had hitherto used, to support, regulate and communicate with a community in hiding. Only witches and wizards who enjoyed the title of ‘Minister for Magic’ are included in this entry.

Wizards' Ordinary Magic and Basic Aptitude Test English VIEW SOURCE SHARE Padlock Editing of this article by newly registered users is currently disabled. Such users may discuss changes, or request unprotection. WOMBAT logo The logo for the W.O.M.B.A.T.s
"Unlike the O.W.L.s, the W.O.M.B.A.T.s consist exclusively of written papers. Therefore W.O.M.B.A.T.s could be sat by Muggles as well as wizards, although the Wizarding Examinations Authority does not believe that any Muggle would have the degree of inner-knowledge required to achieve a pass." —Excerpt from the Grade 3 W.O.M.B.A.T.[src] The Wizards' Ordinary Magic and Basic Aptitude Test (or W.O.M.B.A.T.) is a series of tests administered by the Wizarding Examinations Authority, concerning a variety of subjects. The W.O.M.B.A.T.s, unlike the O.W.L.s or the N.E.W.T.s, consist exclusively of written papers. Therefore W.O.M.B.A.T.s could be sat by Muggles as well as wizards and witches, although the Wizarding Examinations Authority does not believe that any Muggle would have the degree of inner knowledge required to achieve a pass.
The W.O.M.B.A.T.s test whether the sitter is able to exist safely and effectively within the magical world. A W.O.M.B.A.T. usually takes twenty-five minutes to complete, although more advanced levels (such as Grade 3) take more time; thirty-five minutes. The Ministry takes a few days to mark every test, after which an owl delivers the results in the form of a certificate (if it is a passing grade), or a letter (if it is a failing grade).

SHARE As No-Maj Europeans began to emigrate to the New World, more witches and wizards of European origin also came to settle in America. Like their No-Maj counterparts, they had a variety of reasons for leaving their countries of origin. Some were driven by a sense of adventure, but most were running away: sometimes from persecution by No-Majs, sometimes from a fellow witch or wizard, but also from the wizarding authorities. The latter sought to blend in among the increasing tide of No-Majs, or hide among the Native American wizarding population, who were generally welcoming and protective of their European brethren. From the first, however, it was clear that the New World was to be a harsher environment for witches and wizards than the Old World. There were three main reasons for this.
Firstly, like their No-Maj counterparts, they had come to a country with few amenities, except those they made themselves. Back home, they had only to visit the local Apothecary to find the necessities for potions: here, they had to forage among unfamiliar magical plants. There were no established wandmakers, and Ilvermorny School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, which would one day rank among the greatest magical establishments in the world, was at that time no more than a rough shack containing two teachers and two students.
Secondly, the actions of their fellow No-Majs made the non-magical population of most wizards’ homelands look lovable. Not only had conflict developed between the immigrants and the Native American population, which struck a blow at the unity of the magical community, their religious beliefs made them deeply intolerant of any trace of magic. The Puritans were happy to accuse each other of occult activity on the slenderest evidence, and New World witches and wizards were right to be extremely wary of them.
The last, and probably the most dangerous problem encountered by wizards newly arrived in North America were the Scourers. As the wizarding community in America was small, scattered and secretive, it had as yet no law enforcement mechanism of its own. This left a vacuum that was filled by an unscrupulous band of wizarding mercenaries of many foreign nationalities, who formed a much-feared and brutal taskforce committed to hunting down not only known criminals, but anyone who might be worth some gold. As time went on, the Scourers became increasingly corrupt. Far away from the jurisdiction of their native magical governments, many indulged a love of authority and cruelty unjustified by their mission. Such Scourers enjoyed bloodshed and torture, and even went so far as trafficking their fellow wizards. The numbers of Scourers multiplied across America in the late seventeenth century and there is evidence that they were not above passing off innocent No-Majs as wizards, to collect rewards from gullible non-magic members of the community.
The famous Salem Witch Trials of 1692-93 were a tragedy for the wizarding community. Wizarding historians agree that among the so-called Puritan judges were at least two known Scourers, who were paying off feuds that had developed while in America. A number of the dead were indeed witches, though utterly innocent of the crimes for which they had been arrested. Others were merely No-Majs who had the misfortune to be caught up in the general hysteria and bloodlust.
Salem was significant within the magical community for reasons far beyond the tragic loss of life. Its immediate effect was to cause many witches and wizards to flee America, and many more to decide against locating there. This led to interesting variations in the magical population of North America, compared to the populations of Europe, Asia and Africa. Up until the early decades of the twentieth century, there were fewer witches and wizards in the general American population than on the other four continents. Pure-blood families, who were well-informed through wizarding newspapers about the activities of both Puritans and Scourers, rarely left for America. This meant a far higher percentage of No-Maj-born witches and wizards in the New World than elsewhere. While these witches and wizards often went on to marry and found their own all-magical families, the pure-blood ideology that has dogged much of Europe’s magical history has gained far less traction in America.
Perhaps the most significant effect of Salem was the creation of the Magical Congress of the United States of America in 1693, pre-dating the No-Maj version by around a century. Known to all American witches and wizards by the abbreviation MACUSA (commonly pronounced as: Mah – cooz – ah), it was the first time that the North American wizarding community came together to create laws for themselves, effectively establishing a magical-world-within-a-No-Maj-world such as existed in most other countries. MACUSA’s first task was to put on trial the Scourers who had betrayed their own kind. Those convicted of murder, of wizard-trafficking, torture and all other manners of cruelty were executed for their crimes.
Several of the most notorious Scourers eluded justice. With international warrants out for their arrest, they vanished permanently into the No-Maj community. Some of them married No-Majs and founded families where magical children appear to have been winnowed out in favour of non-magical offspring, to maintain the Scourer’s cover. The vengeful Scourers, cast out from their people, passed on to their descendants an absolute conviction that magic was real, and the belief that witches and wizards ought to be exterminated wherever they were found.
American magical historian Theophilus Abbot has identified several such families, each with a deep belief in magic and a great hatred of it. It may be partly due to the anti-magic beliefs and activities of the descendants of Scourer families that North American No-Majs often seem harder to fool and hoodwink on the subject of magic than many other populations. This has had far-reaching repercussions on the way the American wizarding community is governed.
