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?
DD, at the end of book 6
2. Who is the Half-Blood Prince? (If "The Old Lion Guy,"
describe more.)
Godric Griffindor
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 can control people's actions using her eyes alone, although it is more powerful if she uses a wand too - in 'Snape's Worst Memory' she makes James drop Severus when her 'furious expression ....twitched for an instant', and ends the spell after Snape calls her a mudblood, by blinking. I don't think this is clear until book 7, but we find out more about it in book 6
4. Who will be the new DADA teacher?
Moody. If DD could have found anyone else at the end of Year 4, he would have deprived Fudge of the opportunity of lending Umbridge...
5. With whom will Harry have a romantic relationship?
Ginny, eventually. Foreshadowed when he went past Cerberfluffy into the Underworld to rescue her. But it won't be close or a source of comfort - he'll be too afraid of what would happen to anyone who gets caught up in his relationship with VM.
6. Who will be the new Minister of Magic?
I'd love it to be Amelia Bones, but I think it'll be Amos Diggory.
7. What is that bowl-thing on the green U.S. HBP cover?
Dumbledore's pensieve
8. Will Harry take Advanced Potions?
Yes. Now he knows about the prophecy, he'll start taking Auror training seriously
9. Will Neville take Advanced Potions?
Yes...he has a reputation for outstanding courage against impossible odds
10. How many OWLs did Harry get?
8
Predictions (0-10 points each):
Make 5 predictions not covered in the Compulsory Question
section.
1.DD starts teaching Harry in Book 6
2.Peter Pettigrew will still be standing at the end of book 6, but gets zapped in Book 7 when he does something that gives Harry an advantage - but he doesn't do it voluntarily...
3.Fawkes comes to Harry after DD dies
4.Ron and Hermione get together, and give us all some comic relief
5.Sirius' motorcycle comes out of storage and gets an encore. It has got very friendly with the Weasley car.
6.Arthur Weasley gets killed in book 6. Jo has acquired a habit of saving her characters from certain death until her audience starts to relax, and then suddenly killing them off. One of the Weasleys has to go, and it can't be Molly as there would be no-one left to play the big maternal emotional drama scenes, which will continue to feature through book 7. Arthur's death brings Fred and George into the Order.
8.In book 6 Harry aims to go after Bella, and gets to do so big time in book 7, where he eventually beats her.
9.Something happens in book 6 to merge Harry and Voldy still further, so they are separate people to a lesser extent than they are now.
10. Harry gets through all 7 books without killing anyone
11. Jo doesn't finish writing book 7 until her fourth child starts school. I may have to come to some arrangement with Voldy to be sure I'm still around to find out how it all ends...
