1.  Will Harry die and stay dead at the end of HPDH? No.

2. Will Voldemort  die and stay dead at the end of HPDH? Yes.

3. Excluding Harry and  Voldemort, who will be the most prominent 
character to die and stay dead?  Bellatrix.

4. From HBP (p125, American Hardcover), in the shop while  the trio 
were listening with Extendable Ears, what did Draco show Borgin  that 
scared him? Probably the Dark Mark, but irrelevant at this  point.

5. Assuming Hogwarts reopens as a school, who will return as a  
student, which means enrolled in classes whether or not they attend  
the classes (answer yes or no for each): Hogwarts will not reopen, so no  to 
all.
a. Harry? 
b. Draco? 
c. Hermione?
d. Luna? 
e. Ron?  
f. Neville? 
g. Ginny? 

6. Which will be the most prominent  couple to marry, if any, during 
the time period covered in DH, excluding  any epilogue? Bill and Fleur.

7. Who will be the unusual person who  performs magic for the first 
time "very late in life?" Argus Filch. It  would do wonders for his 
personality.

8. Assuming Hogwarts reopens as a  school, who will be the: What is the 
point? Who will be there?
a. Head Boy?  
b. Head Girl? 
c. DADA Instructor? 
d. Potions Master or Mistress?  
e. Headmaster or -mistress? 

9. Where do Snape's ultimate loyalties  lie? To destroying Voldemort.

10. Identify the seven Horcruxes. (If you  think there are more or 
less than seven, write "n/a" or add extra letters  as necessary. 
Horcruxes in previous books and previously inactivated  Horcruxes 
must be identified for full credit. If you think one of the soul  
pieces is in Voldemort so there are six external Horcruxes plus the  
bit still in him, then write "In Voldemort" for one of the answers.)  
a. In Voldemort
b. Diary (destroyed)
c. Locket
d. Hufflepuff  cup
e. Ring (destroyed)
f. Voldemort's wand
g. Harry's scar  (unintentional)

In case Hogwarts does not reopen, or in case we do not  have 
sufficient information to answer #5 and #8 above, these two  
alternate questions will used in place of #5 and #8, above. If #5 
and  #8 are sufficiently answered in DH, the alternate questions will 
be used  as tiebreakers. 

Alternate 1. What are Snape's patronus and boggert?  Patronus: Phoenix, 
Boggart: Dumbledore jeering at him.

Alternate 2.  What is behind the locked door at the Department of 
Mysteries in the  Ministry of Magic? Enough love to destroy the Dementors and 
cripple  Voldemort.

Predictions (10 points each / 50 points total):

Make  5 predictions not covered in the Compulsory Question section.

Current  Off-Limit Spoilers: 
-- Predictions that describe any the covers are worth  0 points 
unless they include specific information not obvious in the  cover.
-- SPOILER: Kreacher will be in DH. (David Yates, interview.) (Note:  
because we are pretty sure that Kreacher will figure at least 
somewhat  prominently in DH, any predictions about his presence on a 
cover will also  be worth 0 points.) 
-- The probable identity of "R.A.B." as stumbled  around by JKR 
during Leaky / Mugglenet interview will earn 0 points.  
-- Predictions based on "Gabriel the Hacker" are allowed but we will  
laugh at you when they're wrong. 
-- Anything stupidly obvious (e.g.,  Harry will turn 17, Ron and 
Hermione will date, Voldemort is evil, someone  will perform magic,) 
will be worth 0 points, at most. Negative points are  possible. 
-- "Negative" predictions, i.e., "The Centaurs will *not* come  
skipping into Hogwarts offering free pony rides," will receive no  
credit. 
-- Only your first 5 predictions will be evaluated and  included in 
your score. Extra predictions may be marveled at but will not  be 
scored. 

1. Snape was not in love with Lily.
2. Lily was a  researcher on the locked door in the DOM.
3. Dumbledore leaked the prophecy  through Snape.
4. When Lily and James ignored his warnings and did the  Fidelius Charm 
themselves, he warned Petunia that Lily might die and she would  need to take Harry 
in. (" These wizards murdered my sister!")
5. When  Voldemort is dead, Snape will commit suicide.
