Compulsory Questions (0-5 points each): 
If you believe the answer to a question is a new character, 
write "new character" *and* describe relationships to old characters 
or characteristics of new character for full credit. 


1.  Who will be the most major character to die? 

Percy Weasley (see below).

2.  Who is the Half-Blood Prince? (If "The Old Lion Guy," describe 
more.)

Godric Gryffindor.

3.  What is Lily's big secret? (This question will be eliminated and 
full credit given to everyone if no big secret is revealed.) 

She had some sort of relationship with Voldemort, which is why he asked her
to "step aside" rather than just killing her, as he did Cedric when he was a
"spare".

4.  Who will be the new DADA teacher? 

New character, a good guy for a change, who will actually last the year and
come back in book 7.  He/she will be a member of the Order and will help
train everyone in practical defense against the Death Eaters.

5.  With whom will Harry have a romantic relationship? 

No-one, he will be too busy grieving for Sirius, and preparing for his
impending fight-to-the-death with Voldemort to even think about girls.

6.  Who will be the new Minister of Magic? 

New character, less pompous than Fudge and more inclined to follow
Dumbledore's advice.

7.  What is that bowl-thing on the green U.S. HBP cover? 

Snape's penseive.  Harry will sneak back for another look to see how badly
his father behaved at school.

8.  Will Harry take Advanced Potions? 

Yes

9.  Will Neville take Advanced Potions? 

Yes

10. How many OWLs did Harry get? 

DADA - O
Potions - E
Herbology - A
Care of Magical Creatures - O
Charms - E
Transfiguration - E
Astronomy - A

He will fail Divination and History of Magic (since he practically slept all
the way through that exam).

Predictions (0-10 points each): 

1.  Ginny will become a Cat Animagus.  She is often described as "cat-like"
and has an affinity with cats - she was upset when Mrs Norris was petrified,
and plays with Crookshanks a lot - so I think these are hints of her
animagus form.

2.  Percy will be shown to be a Death Eater and will be killed in a showdown
with a member of the Order.

3.  Victor Krum will reappear with news of Karkaroff and will join the
Order.

4.  Bill and Fleur will get married.

5.  Neville will find more confidence in his magic skills after his part in
the showdown at the Ministry of Magic.  He will feature much more
prominently in Book 6 and will rank alongside Hermione and Ron as one of
Harry's main confidantes.  His gran will be very proud of him.  Sorry if
this one is too vague :-))
