as an ally in Harry's quest against Voldemort in the last book. The 
fact that Krum would take a mudblood to the ball, and apparently 
genuinely cares for her despite knowing she is muggle-born, sets him 
up as a good guy by the end of GOF. <<

Joe: 
He might be a good guy but that whole 17/18 year old international 
quidditch star asking a 14/15 year old girl out strikes me as more 
than a little creepy.
