J.K.R. has already stated that the character will not be one of the three main characters of Harry Ron or Hermione, but she did say that the person has been around since the first book and that they were a fan of Harry's.

Hi everyone

I'm a newbie here, but I've been following several of the threads over a period of time now. Forgive me if this has already come up.The following thought just ocurred to me and I really need to tell you all :) If JKR really said what you're writing here Merlin, I think it could very well be Neville. After all he is a more or less major character. He's a lot around HRH in the books. Book one: It's Neville who wants to fight the three as the go for the PS, why not Dean, Seamus? It's Nevilles 10 points that secure Gryffindor the House Cup. Book two: When Harry can't go to Hogsmeade he meets Neville on the corridor. Book four: Ginny is asked by Neville to go to the ball with him. Nevill has the book about water plants where Harry could find the solution to his problem. It's like JKR lets him appear on all kinds of occasions so we never forget about him. He's always in some way or other important to the story line (well that's probably exaggerated). Also he's been around since book one, introduced on the Hogwarts Express. We know more about him than about the other boys in HR dormitory. He does admire Harry, maybe not openly like Colin, but there is something. His death would be hard to write, not only because - even if he is forgetful and everthing - everyone likes him. HRH help Nevill where they can. Also it would be hard because of the reactions of the other characters. A friend, a fellow Gryffindor dead...I wonder what Draco would say...

Well, these are some of my thoughts. Hope they are acceptable.
