Will Harry Potter die? Bets taken...

storyteller said:
I'd like an explanation of Dumbledore's psychic abilities, which are apparent in each of the books thus far.

What psychic abilities? I don’t remember anything about them, unless you mean his ability to use legillimency.

I'd like to know just how old he presumably was when he presumably died. That is, how is it that Nicholas Flamel lived well into his sixth century owing to the power of the sorcerer's stone which he seems to have made with his partner in alchemy (Book 1), Albus Dumbledore? We are never told whether Flamel made the stone and then continued to research alchemy to make another or to learn more and only then partnered with Dumbledore. We are never told why Dumbledore was interested in alchemy.

Dumbledore was in his mid-150’s when he was murdered. Wizards live longer than normal people anyway, usually averaging their 80’s and 90’s, instead of their 60’s and 70’s like us. Dumbledore was a particularly learned and powerful wizard, so had an even longer lifespan.

I also wonder about the faithful relationship between Dumdledore and Fawkes. No, not unusual for a pet to be loyal to his master, but for a pet to be so loyal as to know when others are being loyal to that master (Book 2)? Basically, I wonder whether Dumbledore has some essence of phoenix in him and perhaps that's why he was interested in alchemy (to learn more about himself). It seems likely to me that Fawkes and Dumbledore's brother will have larger roles in Book 7, whether Dumbdledore makes a physical reapparence or not.

Phoenixes are animals, but exceptionally intelligently and magically instinctive ones. Fawkes might not have what you would call human sentience, but he’s still able to react in ways you wouldn’t expect an animal to.

storyteller said:
Further, isn't it interesting that Fawkes gave two feathers only that ended up residing in Voldemort and Harry's wands? Did Dumdledore foresee a general picture of what would happen in the future at some distant time in his past and attempt to influence the outcome through Fawkes, even if he didn't know the specific players ahead of time?

Possibly, although doubtful considering that Dumbledore has such a low opinion of divination.


storyteller said:
I hope that Neville manages to get rid of Bellatrix who took such joy, along with other Death Eaters, in killing his parents.

Neville’s parents are still alive, albeit mentally handicapped.
 
Can I be the first person to say...


FUCKING YEE-HAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!

Eat shit and die you snake-faced, thistle-arsed, snaggle-toothed, anally-retentive, blood-obsessed, shit-chewing, wand-into-arse-inserting son of a crosseyed pureblooded fuckwitted bitch! :dogpile:

Good book that. 😉
 
You been drinking something funny lately? Something like butter beer, or some lukewarm English cervisia? 🙄
 
i just wanna say i read the final book and it is one of the best JKR has written in my opinion. i won't give the ending away but i do recomend reading this book.

Amazing how some stereotypes never die. English beer hasn't been served at room temperature since the 50's. lol

Shame really, because bitter is much nicer to drink warmer than lager, which is better chilled.
 
So..... can we talk about the book yet? 🙂 Everybody done reading? 😀
 
-Harry will die momentarily and then wake up and defeat Voldemort with the most simplest of spells

-The entire saga will end up being an elaborate dream of a comatose patient who will then wake up and eventually be revealed as the author J.K. Rowling and she will explain that this is how she was inspired to write the books. :happyfloa

I was reading some old posts out of boredom and now that all the books are out, I realized I was 100% right in the first guess!!!! GO ME!

And the second would have made an awesome twist. 😛

On the current subject, I would just like to add a woo, a hoo and a piece of gratuitous gloating for myself...


To answer your question Hal, yeah, I think Harry is going to die. Self-sacrifice to destroy an unintentional Horcrux.

Yay me x1! Glad to find the death wasn't 100% or permenant, thanks surprisingly to Voldemort himself. I didn't predict how JK would get Harry out of this one without being deader than sideways ironed flares and plastic sandals, but I'm glad she did. I'm surprised that more people didn't think Harry was the seventh Horcrux to be honest.

JKR has confirmed that one of the students will end up becoming a teacher, but that it isn't Harry. Hermione would obviously make a fantastic teacher, but I rather fancy it might turn out to be Neville.

Yay me x2! As soon as I heard that one of Harry's classmates would be a teacher at the end of the story I had an immediate feeling it would be Neville and that he would teach Herbology.

Ah, smug mode...
