Ooh nice

-Hermione's attention to detail: The way she researches everything 
from the number of registered Animagi to the things she packs in the 
little beaded bag (and hangs on to the bag even after being captured 
and tortured)

-Neville's courage in standing up to his friends. (In Philosopher's 
Stone when he tries to stop the Trio from sneaking out at night. 
Dumbledore awarding him 10 points for that was one of the most 
heartwarming bits of that book)

-Ron's ability to be a great friend. I know he's been a jerk at times 
but he's still the best friend a guy could have. He puts his life on 
the line time and again for Harry, he tears up Percy's letter with 
disgust, he stands up for him against Snape ...I could go on and on...

-Fred and George's sense of fun: Well not as drastic as feeding 
unsuspecting people canary creams and ten-ton toffees but their gift 
for repartee and puns - ear ear...(I love you Jo but i can't forgive 
you for killing Fred)

-Luna's temperament - nothing puts her in a flap

-Snape's moral courage: To be blamed and loathed for doing something 
you had to do under duress and never, ever reveal the truth, 
wow ...that's courage. Reminds me of a line from my favourite book 
(outside the HP series) "Courage is not a man with a gun (or a wand 
in this case). It's when you know you're licked before you begin but 
you begin anyways and see a thing through no matter what. You don't 
often win, but sometimes you do"

-Dumbledore's belief in the essential goodness of people - and his 
habit of giving people chances.

That's all I can think off for now

cheers
