Viktor Krum

When you think of Bulgaria you think some weird country, but when I think of Bulgaria I think of they very hot seeker, Viktor Krum.

"There's no one like Krum! He's like a bird the way he rides the wind! He's more than an athlete... he's an artist." -Ron Weasley (Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire).

Viktor attended the Durmstrang Institute. He also plays Seeker for the Bulgarian National Quidditch Team. He also participated in the Triwizard Tournament at Hogwarts alongside with Fleur, Cedric, and Harry. There never was no real winner due to the fact that Cedric was murdered by Lord Voldemort so he went back to Bulgaria but also went to Bill and Fleur's wedding. He is regarded as one of the best Quidditch players. He played while still in school. Even though his team lost in the finals against the Irish he is still the best out there. While at Hogwarts he began to grow fond of Hermione Granger later asking her to the Yule Ball and saving her during the second Triwizard Tournament task in the lake.

Hermione: "How did she know Viktor asked me to visit him over the summer?... Madam Pomfrey gave us both blankets and then he sort of pulled me away from the judges so they wouldn't hear, and he said, if I wasn't doing anything over the summer, would I like to —"

Ron: "And what did you say?"

Hermione: "And he did say he'd never felt the same way about anyone else..."

— Viktor's invitation for Hermione to spend the summer with him

After the tournament he gave a private goodbye to Hermione, gave Ron his autograph and gave his sympathy to Harry about Cedric's death.

"Vot is the point of being an international Quidditch player if all the good-looking girls are taken?"

—Viktor Krum to Harry Potter

Although Hermione was invited to Bulgaria she never went but still remained good friends with Viktor. Hermione then became interested in Ron leaving Viktor to go back home and find love in his own native country.

Sirius Black

Known to be a murder but actually innocent? Sirius Black was the only family Harry had left until he was murdered by Bellatrix Lestrange. Sirius was very good friends with James Potter (Harry's father) while at Hogwarts. He is of a Pure-Blood family. He is part of a long line of evil wizards including Bellatrix Lestrange, The Malfoys, and the good wizards The Potters. He is Harry's God-Father. He is also an animagus and takes the form of a dog. He is also known as Padfoot in the Marauders Map being that he helped create it. He loved Harry very much and also his parents until they were murdered and he was killed. He was in a group with James Potter, Remus Lupin, and Peter Pettigrew. He was also sent to Azkaban for 12 years but escaped. During Harry's third year he helped expose Peter with the help of Remus.

Bill Weasley

Although he may go unnoticed in the movies, he plays a major role in the books. This young character has not gotten the screen time he should get. William "Bill" Weasley is the eldest of the Weasley children. He attended Hogwarts and was Prefect and Head Boy. After graduating, he went to work for Gringotts Wizarding Bank as a Curse Breaker, working in Egypt. He later joined the Order of the Phoenix. During his time in the Order, he began dating Fleur Delacour, whom he later married. He ends up getting very badly injured in the Battle of Hogwarts in the Astronomy Tower. He also developed Werewolf like characteristics after being attacked by Fenrir Greyback. He also has three children and continues to help out in any way he can. 

Harry Potter Puppet Pals

There is this group of people on YouTube who make Harry Potter Puppet videos. The most famous one is " The Mysterious Ticking Noise". This video features most of the main characters singing and dancing. This video is hilarious and I urge you all to watch it.

What is the "Dark Mark"

The Dark Mark is a symbol used by Lord Voldemort and his Death Eaters.  It looks like a skull with a snake coming out of the mouth in place of the tongue. As a spell it is cast by a Death Eater, whenever he or she has murdered someone. Dark Marks are also branded on the left forearm of the closest followers of Voldemort. The mark serves as a connection between Voldemort and each who bears it, he can summon them by touching his mark, causing it and those of his followers to burn and change colour. Death Eaters can summon Voldemort in the same fashion. Following Voldemort's ultimate defeat, the Dark Marks on his Death Eaters fade into a scar "similar" to Harry's. In the books, the Dark mark is described as green. However, in the films, it was only green at the Quidditch world cup. In all other film appearances it has been grey.

Dobby

In every movie there is this one character that everyone falls in love with and in this movie it just so happens to be the best house elf in all of the Wizarding World! Dobby is the best friend you can ever have. What kind of friend will risk his life to save you? Dobby has saved Harry from many things and then ultimately giving up his life while helping Harry escape. Dobby is killed by Bellatrix Lestrange when she throws a dagger at him at the Malfoy Family Estate, when Dobby rescues Harry and company for the final time. Dobby, unlike other house-elves, wanted to be a free elf, free of the magical slavery that binds this race to their wizarding families. In all of the books he is my favorite character. He is everything you can want in a friend, even if he might kill you in the process.

Lord Voldemort

What would you do if you found out that there was someone much more powerful than you? Would you kill him or just leave him alone? The Dark Lord chose the bad choice. Tom Marvolo Riddle was discovered in an orphanage by Albus Dumbledore. Tom was a special kid. He is the  last descendant of wizard Salazar Slytherin, one of the four founders of Hogwarts. Rowling described Voldemort as "the most evil wizard for hundreds and hundreds of years". His main goal in life is to kill Harry Potter. When he first tried to do this when Harry was very young, the Avada Kedvra curse didn't work. Instead it transferred some of Voldemort's powers over into Harry. When he did this, the curse left Harry with a scar in the shape of a lightning bolt and he is known as "The Boy Who Lived". Tom Marvolo Riddle didn't like his name due to the fact that one of his parents was a muggle. So he decided to change his name to Lord Voldemort. In the Chamber of Secrets he reveals by saying " I Am Lord Voldemort" which contains all of the letters used in Tom Marvolo Riddle. Eventually he is killed by Harry and that brings the end to his reign.
