Amista said: (SNIP) HONDA theory  What about Deadalus Diggle? He is mentioned turning rain into shooting stars in the first book. Does he count for mentioned but not developed characters? (SNIP)

We also know he lives in Kent (shooting stars over Kent after fall of Voldermort). In the Leaky Cauldron we learn that he was the one to bow to Harry as a child and "just happens"  to be in the Leaky Cauldron when Harry goes there the first time. SS/PS.  Personally, that set my "this person is more important than he seems" radar off when I reread the books. He seems to be a HONDA. And since names are so important to JKR, the name Dedalus is the father of the child who flew too high (Icarus) in Greek mythology. He was also a well known inventor for the Greek kings. (Hope I am not transposing characters in my lack of sleep) He just seems to have too much mention to be an absolutely flat character. 

Just my thoughts on the subject,
Meg
