The Potters


The Potters, probably the family that is most admired in the hole books of Harry Potter.


The family of Harry Potter is a simple family, a father, a mother and a son. Obviously Harry has uncles, aunts, cousins, a godfather (Sirius Black), a wife (Ginny Weasley), child (Albus Severus Potter, Lily Luna Potter, Sirius James Potter) and other parents, but we are mentioning all of them one to one later.


The Potter has like "members"


James Potter


James Potter is Harry's father and husband of Lily Potter. Has an appearance extremely similar as his son, lie his hair, his glasses, and... Well they have a lot in common... He was born in 27 of March, 1960, he studied in Hogwarts and became a gryffinorian, his best friends were Sirius Black, Remus Lupin, and Peter Pettigrew. Him and his friends (these ones that were mentioned) were considered "marauders", and so they created the Marauders Map. A map that shows Hogwarts as a different way, it shows the people that are walking inside Hogwarts. It's really useful when you're trying to find someone. Unfortunately he died, murdered by Lord Voldemort, in 31 of October, 1981. When he died, he was trying to save his wife, Lily Potter, without success.




Lily Potter
      Lily Potter..... considered by many as "boring", but she's wonderful, beyond that she sacrificed  her self to save Harry's life. Lily Evans is married with James Potter and was born in 30 of January, 1960. A medium-sized woman with incredible beautiful brown hair and green eyes. Lily is the sister of Petunia Dursley, aunt of Harry and in Lily's childhood, had a strong friendship with Severus Snape. Snape feel in love with Lily, but Lily got in love with James Potter and ceased to be friend of Snape, that she called him Sev, she loved him as a brother. Her sister Petunia never liked that Lily knew magic, so she never mentioned the family again. She died in the same day of her husband, 31 of October, 1981, trying to save her son's life.




Harry Potter
 Do I have to explain ho is he? Well, Harry is the protagonist of the collection, his parents, Lily and James, died when he had only one year old. He was redeemed by Rubeus Hagrid in the remains of his old house and taken to his uncle's house, The Dursleys. The members of the Dursleys are: his aunt Petunia, his uncle Vernon Dursley and his cousin Dudley Dursley, that looks more like a pig. He had terrible years in Privet Drive, 4, but when he completed 11 years old, he discovered that he was a wizard and went to Hogwarts, being selected to Gryffindor, with his best friends, Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger. Harry and his friends never had a calm year in Hogwarts, always with something bad happening in the school, but all the years that they studied in Hogwarts they succeeded. In his first year, he faced Voldemort for his first time and "saved" the philosopher's stone. In the second year, he killed a basilisk with the sword of Godric Gryffindor  and saved Ginny Weasey's life. In his third year, he fought with hundreds of dementors. In his fourth year, he faced and fought with Voldemort again! In his fifth year, he went to fight in the Ministry of Magic thinking that his godfather, Sirius, was being tortured. Actually, he wasn't being tortured, it was just a illusion. He battled against Death Eaters and he lost Sirius Black (do I need to say that he is Harry's godfather). In his sixth year, saw Dumbledore die and he still fought with Death Eaters and still helped putting out the fire on Hagrid's house. In his seventh year, he didn't go to Hogwarts, he was bussy hunting horcruxes with Ron and Hermione, but he did a lot of heroic stuff (as he always does), like diving inside a frozen lake to get a sword or almost getting killed (what a surprise), go personaly till Voldemort (alone), just to die, and moreover, pretending thats dead to kill him later. And it worked, Harry and Voldemort had a epic battle, and Voldemort died (YES, UHUUU!!!), and Harry did that dozens of friends would die. Know more clicking here.

Chear up, Chear up, at least you know better the Potters

The Malfoys


The Malfoy Family, mean, all Death Eaters, but Draco Malfoy (the person in the left), actually, wasn't so evil, I mean, he was, but less than his parents. He wanted to help Voldemort and the other Death Eaters because, or Draco kills Dumbledore or Voldemort would kill everyone of his family.


They were owners of Dobby, that was very mistreated by the family and he was afraid to say bad things about his masters. He became a free elf in the Chamber of Secrets with a help of Harry Potter. After that Dobby worked as a cook in Hogwarts kitchen, but always with that spirit of a free elf.


Now a little bit of the principal members of the Malfoy family:


Lucius Malfoy


Is one of the Death Eaters, married with Narcissa Malfoy. A tall man, with blond hair, almost white. Born in 9 of September, 1954, with 11 years old (of course) and was selected to Slytherin. His wand is made of elm and inside it has fiber core of dragon heartstring, and on the top of the wand there is a snake (as you can see in the photo). His wand was broken by his master, Lord Voldemort. His father of Draco Malfoy and works in Ministry of Magic, probably in a important position, with the Minister of Magic. Can't bear muggle-borns and blood traitors. He already was arrested and sent to Azkaban, after the battle in the Mysteries Department (Ministry of Magic) against aurors and members of Dumbledore's Army.




Narcissa Malfoy
       
Narcissa is the Death Eater that I admire most. Born in 1955, she went to Hogwarts (I don't even need to say that she went to Hogwarts with 11 years old, do I?) and was selected to Slytherin. A elegant and stylish woman with blue eyes and blond hair. She is married with Lucius Malfoy, mother of Draco Malfoy and sister of Belatrix Lestrange and Andromedra Tonks so shes aunt of Nymphadora Tonks. She already made an unbreakable vow with Severus Snape and made him promise to protect Draco (her son) the maximum possible in his sixth year in Hogwarts and if Draco fails his mission to kill Dumbledore, Snape would finish it for him. Narcissa battled with Voldemort and the other Death Eaters in the battle of Hogwarts and it was in the Deathly Hallows that she was most important. Narcissa was "chosen" by Voldemort to check if Harry Potter was actually dead, she lied, saying that he was dead, (actually he wasn't) just to save the live of her precious son.




Draco Malfoy


Draco is known as a arrogant boy of Slytherin that hates Harry Potter. Born in 5 of June, 1980, he studied with Harry and his friends in Hogwarts. A boy with blond hair, almost white (just as his father), gray eyes and with pure blood. He was part of the Inquisitorial Squad with other students of Slytherin and, of course, Argus Filch. In his sixth year in Hogwarts he became officially a Death Eater and received a mission to kill the head-master of Hogwarts, Albus Dumbledore. He fixed and used the Sink Cabinet to bring the other Death Eaters inside Hogwarts Castle and kill Dumbledore. Actually, he didn't kill the head-master, maybe because he was scared, the maximum that he did was disarming the enemy and say him a couple of words. Severus Snape finished the mission as promissed. If you would like more information about Draco click here.




This is the Malfoy family, but there are other parents, like Draco's grandfather, Abraxas Malfoy, Narcissa's sisters, Belatrix Lestrange and Andromeda Tonks, Draco son Scorpio Malfoy and Draco's wife Astoria Greengrass.

The Books of Harry Potter

How you may now, the book serie Harry Potter consists on seven books. But there aren't books of 50 pages or 100 pages. They are books with at least 250 pages and a maximum of 750! If you don't like so much the book serie or if you don't like so much to read, sorry but I think to you keep watching the films instead of reading. Obviously I hope that the Potterians (or Potter Maniacs, you decide) had already read or plan to read.

The books written by JK Rowling, check her official site clicking here.

  The books are:




Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone (England's edition)


Review (synopsis) of the book:
"Harry Potter is a common boy that lives on a closet under the stairs in his uncle's house. His live changes when redeemed by a bunch of owls and his taken to the School of Witchcraft and Wizardry of Hogwarts. There he discovers everything about the weird death of his parents, learns how to play Quiddditch and faces, on a duel, the cruel Voldemort."


With intelligence and creativity, JK Rowling created a classic of our times (but for me are the best books of all times). A work that combines fantasy and suspense is a original universe attractive to everyone (or at least most).

Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince
 Review (synopsis) of the book:
"We are in midsummer, but there's a strange fog that compresses the windows. Harry Potter waits, restless, on his room, on his uncle's house, Dumbledore's visit. Never on the other times that he saw the head-master, he treated a duel hand-to-hand with Voldemort. Harry don't understand very well what will be the reason to Dumbledore visit him on his uncle's house. Why couldn't he wait his return to Hogwarts, that is in a couple of weeks? The sixth year of Harry starts with a peculiar way, and the world of the wizards and the muggles, no doubts, appear to intertwine...


JK Rowling presents the adventures of Harry Potter in his sixth year with the ability of always and with a breathtaking rhythm."

Now you known a little bit more about Harry Potter.

Know everything about:Lord Voldemort

Lord Voldemort. Murderer of millions of people in the whole world. A man without a heart (and without a nose hahaha : ), the terror of all wizards, the worst person that you can imagine. Tom Riddle, more known as Lord Voldemort, is... well, he is The Dark Lord. Can't bear the muggles, muggle-born and blood-traitors, he is the biggest vilan of the book serie Harry Potter. Tom Riddle was an orphan boy that lived in a orphanage when, in a certain day, Albus Dumbledore visited him. Dumbledore told him that he was a wizard and he also showed him a little bit of magic, but he got surprised when Tom said "I can make people suffer... if I want to...". Anyways Dumbledore invited him to study at Hogwarts, and he was selected to Slytherin by The Sorting Hat. In Hogwarts he had "friends" (which in fact were not good friends) that were called Death Eaters. Was an exemplary student, but Dumbledore never trusted him really much. He asked once to Horace Slughorn what was Horcruxs, and Slughorn, whit no idea what was he doing, answered what they were: when someone kills somebody, the killer can use any object to keep part of his soul, and until the object is destroyed, the killer becomes immortal. When he finished Hogwarts, he went to work on Burgin & Burkes (a shop on the Knockturn Alley, close to the Diagon Alley), what surprised a lot of his professors, because they thought that a boy so intelligent shouldn't be a clerk. Later, he tried to a professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts in Hogwarts, but Dumbledore didn't accept him. There are rumors that after Dumbledore didn't let him teach, the job became cursed and the following professors of Defense Against the Dark Arts didn't teach for more than a year, passing away. After Severus Snape say to what he heard of the profecy (made by Sibila Trelawney), sayind that Harry Potter and Voldemort should kill each other, the Dark Lord got scared that Harry could kill him, so he made 6 horcruxs. The old "friends", The Death Eaters, turned into his servants.  Voldemort tattooed on the left arm of each Death Eater, The Black Mark. To make an horcrux you need to kill someone, and Voldemort intended to make his seventh horcrux killing Harry. He didn't succeed and after that day, he isolated himself, living like a parasite inside other people's body, for 13 years. After these years, Voldemort returned and started trying to kill Harry Potter and attack muggles, muggle-born and blood-traitors again. With Death Eaters disguised as important persons of the Ministry of Magic, he was getting more and more powerful. Getting closer and closer to control the magic world and the muggle world. He died on the final battle of Hogwarts.

Know everything about:Albus Dumbledore

Who never heard about the famous Albus Dumbledore? The wise bearded old man... No? Albus Dumbledore is the most famous head-master of the School of Witchcraft and Wizardry of Hogwarts, known by his intelligence, his patience, his kindness, his sagacity, and, mainly, his love. Beyond his capacity of seeing the best of the people! He was created in Godric's Hollow, the same place that Lílian and Tiago Potter ( Harry's parents) lived and died. He had a big friendship with Grindelwald on his childhood and his adolescence. Rita Skeeter (famous jornalist) wrote a book about him, named Life and lies of Albus Dumbledore, that actually, can be quite interesting, but it isn't very real. He was murdered on the 6 year of Harry, by Severus Snape. Many think that Snape is a bad guy because of this, but it was the own Dumbledore that told him to kill him. He already was indicated some times to be the Minister of Magic, but he refused all of them.
