Many of you have mentioned Krum in something if a negative sense.  I 
tend to see similiarities between Krum and Harry.  Harry has been 
thrust into his new world receiving unsolicited attention because of 
something that he has no power over (that is his scar and the events 
leading to it).  I feel that Krum may have shown a talent early in 
life as a seeker - as Harry did.  Perhaps in the atmosphere of the 
Durmstrang school he is forced into a spotlight that he would rather 
not be in.  I'm not saying he doesn't love Quidditch, but he seems to 
try to shun the overbearing attention of Karkaroff.  Perhaps his 
"hunched-up and brooding" appearance symbolizes his unhappiness in
his life situation.
