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?
Dumbledore. Alas, poor Albus, I knew him well, Ron Bilius...

2. Who is the Half-Blood Prince? (If "The Old Lion Guy,"
describe more.)
The Old Lion Guy--aka 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.)
LV killed her parents (and Petunia's) when she and James went into hiding.

4. Who will be the new DADA teacher?
Well, I'm guessing one of the older Weasley brothers... Let's go with Bill, since he seems 
more like the DADA type.

5. With whom will Harry have a romantic relationship?
I believe he will fall for Ginny, but she won't be ready for him.

6. Who will be the new Minister of Magic?
Amos Diggory

7. What is that bowl-thing on the green U.S. HBP cover?
A pensieve. Duh. If I were pressed to specify, I'd say GG's--or DD's, with GG's memories 
inside...

8. Will Harry take Advanced Potions?
Yup.

9. Will Neville take Advanced Potions?
The odds seem awfully long on that one. But I'll guess yes. 

10. How many OWLs did Harry get?
EIght. 

Predictions (0-10 points each):
Make 5 predictions not covered in the Compulsory Question
section. "Negative" predictions, i.e., "The Centaurs will *not* come
skipping into Hogwarts offering free pony rides," will receive no
credit. Obvious predictions, i.e., "Harry will be in his 6th year at
Hogwarts," will likewise receive no credit.

1. The DA will continue as a recognized club.
2. At least two Slytherins will join the DA.
3. One of the DoM Six will become romantically involved with a Slytherin.
4. Ron will be Gryffindor Quidditch captain.
5. At least one of the DoM Six will lose a parent. (Not Harry obviously. Sheesh.)
