Theo Nott, Florence, Agnes...just a few of JKR's many named but unknown 
characters. There are so many who spend some time with Harry or near 
Harry, then move on. JKR told us a little about Theo, and something of 
Dean Thomas's father. Did that information peak your curiosity? Did 
something in canon make you think a character was going to play a role 
later, but the character did not? For example, did knowing (or not 
knowing) about Dean's father affect how you felt during his scenes? 

How did canon or interviews color your impressions of characters? Did 
anyone surprise you, speak to you, grab your imagination? What do you 
think about the way JKR wrote characters? Did she "play fair"?


Potioncat hoping this isn't too much like an earlier post--but has 
forgotten that one anyway.
