Harry Potter/Characters/Order of the Phoenix Members: Difference between revisions

| First Appearance =

| Actor = [[Gary Oldman]]

}}

When first introduced, he is an escaped Death Eater and mass murderer who betrayed the Potters' location to Voldemort and is apparently out to kill Harry. Of course, once he finally gets to Hogwarts, [[Hilarity Ensues]] until we find out who the ''real'' traitor was, and that Sirius is actually Harry's godfather. Remains in hiding for the next two books, making it difficult for him to take over legal guardianship. {{spoiler|And then he dies.}}

* [[Estrogen Brigade Bait]]: Not so much his post-Azkaban self, but pre-Azkaban, his good looks are frequently mentioned.

* [[Go Mad from the Revelation]]: His reaction of hysterical laughter to Pettigrew's betrayal and escape via display of hitherto unknown cunning and viciousness, leaving him unable to rationally defend himself against prosecution. [[Fascist but Inefficient|The fact that he didn't get a trial couldn't have helped, either]].

* [[Hero with Bad Publicity]]: Up until his death, most of the wizarding community believes him to be a dangerous and violent mass murderer.

* [[Heterosexual Life Partners]]: James, Remus, Sirius and James in their Hogwarts years count as this, but he and James were practically brothers, evidenced by how he was James's best man at his wedding.

* [[Younger Than They Look]]: Typical for an Azkaban convict.

* [[You Killed My Father]]: Subverted. It is initially believed that Sirius Black was the one who betrayed Harry's parents to Voldemort, but it turns out that not only was he in fact not responsible for betraying them, he was actually framed by the person who supposedly tried to avenge them and died, Peter Pettigrew.

| Actor = [[Brendan Gleeson]]

}}

* [[Good Scars, Evil Scars]]: Subverted—he's on the good side, but his face is horribly scarred and disfigured (i.e., he's missing quite a chunk of his nose, and there ''is'' a reason for his [[Eyepatch of Power]]).

* [[Handicapped Badass]]: He's got a wooden leg and a missing eye (though the latter isn't at all crippling, considering he has a magical replacement that can see in all directions and through solid objects). You'd think that magical technology capable of coming out with something like that eye could do better than a peg leg.

* [[Mad Eye]]: It's not just for visual effect—the electric eye is literally the size of a golf ball.

* [[Old Soldier]]

* {{spoiler|[[The World's Expert on Getting Killed]]}}: {{spoiler|He is killed in person by [[Big Bad|Voldemort]] five chapters into the last book. Thanks to [[Dirty Coward|Mundungus Fletcher]] deserting, he is killed without much of a fight.}}

* [[The Worf Effect]]: A frequent victim thereof.

 

== Nymphadora Tonks ==

| First Appearance =

| Actor = [[Julie Walters]]

}}

Daughter of a clan of Aurors and older sister of Fabian and Gideon Prewett, two famous Aurors killed in the first war against Voldemort. Wife of Arthur Weasley and mother of Bill, Charlie, Percy, Fred, George, Ron and Ginny. She eventually grows into a maternal figure for Harry and, to a lesser extent, Hermione.

 

* [[Action Mom]]: Becomes this for the last book.

* [[Apron Matron]]

* [[Berserk Button]]: [[Crowning Moment of Awesome|"NOT MY DAUGHTER, YOU BITCH!"]] Enough said.

* [[Up to Eleven]]: She takes a page from Lucius' book in the eighth movie. {{spoiler|She's throwing killing curses at Bellatrix and finally turns her to stone... before shattering her less than a second later. Ho-Lee hell, Molly.}}

** {{spoiler|Nonverbally. '''''[[Beware the Nice Ones|NON-FUCKING-VERBALLY]]'''''.}}

 

== Arthur Weasley ==

| First Appearance =

| Actor = [[Domnhall Gleeson]]

}}

The eldest of the seven Weasley children, Bill works as a curse-breaker for Gringotts. He has long red hair and an ear-ring, giving him a rebellious look. He is actually a very understanding person, and takes Ron in for the brief period after Ron leaves Harry and Hermione. He meets Fleur, and they become engaged. Fleur does not mind Bill's disfigurement when he is attacked by Fenrir Greyback, and their wedding goes well. Bill, being a member of the Order, participates in the Battle of Hogwarts. {{spoiler|In the future, he and Fleur have three children.}}

* [[May–December Romance|May–September Romance]]: Relatively mild example, Bill and Fleur are seven years apart.

* [[Meaningful Name]]: Not him, but {{spoiler|his daughter Victoire was born on the one-year anniversary of the Battle of Hogwarts.}}

* [[Scars Are Forever]]

* [[Single Woman Seeks Good Man]]: Fleur, oh Fleur.

* [[Stupid Sexy Flanders]]

* [[Wound That Will Not Heal]]

 

== Charles "Charlie" Weasley ==

* [[The Ghost]]: His exclusion from the films makes him this, since he is still mentioned several times and sometimes indirectly affects the plot.

* [[Informed Ability]]: Mentioned as being the last very good Seeker Gryffindor had before Harry came along.

 

== Fleur Delacour ==

| Central Archetype =

| First Appearance =

}}

A student of Beauxbatons and a Triwizard Champion, Fleur is a vain and high-maintenance quarter-Veela. However, she reveals herself to be a compassionate individual and loyal lover, and risks her life in the battle against Voldemort. She marries Bill Weasley. {{spoiler|In the future, they have three children.}}

* [[Adaptation Dye Job]]: Her hair is darker in the movies.

* [[Big Sister Instinct]]: Towards Gabrielle.

* [[City Mouse]]

* [[Defrosting Ice Queen]]

* [[Foreign Fanservice]]

* [[Funetik Aksent]]

* [[Half-Human Hybrid]]: Part-Veela (one of her grandmothers was one).

* {{spoiler|[[Happily Married]]: To Bill Weasley.}}

* [[Single Woman Seeks Good Man]]

* [[Spoiled Sweet]]

 

== Aberforth Dumbledore ==

{{quote|'''[[John Major]]''': I'm not getting rid of Kingsley Shacklebolt, if that's what you're suggesting! He's highly efficient, gets through twice the work of the rest of them-

'''Rufus Scrimgeour''': That's because he's a wizard. A highly trained Auror, who has been assigned to you for your protection.

Kingsley Shacklebolt is a powerful, well-respected Auror who has joined the Order of the Phoenix. He uses his position to covertly fight evil, misdirecting the hunt for Sirius Black and modifying Marietta Edgecombe's memory to prevent her talking about Dumbledore's Army. He has protected the Muggle Prime Minister and Harry Potter on multiple occasions, and participates in the Battle of Hogwarts. After the battle, he becomes the Minister of Magic.

 

| First Appearance =

| Actor = Adrian Rawlins

}}

Harry Potter's father, who was murdered by Voldemort before the series began. At Hogwarts, he, along with his friends Sirius Black, Remus Lupin and Peter Pettigrew, made up the Marauders, a group of prank-pulling troublemakers.

 

* [[Badass]]: In the First War, he escaped from Voldemort three times before dying. Only three other people managed this.

* [[Big Man on Campus]]: To the core—a bright student, very popular guy, skilled Quidditch player, comes from old money. Literally the only adult who had a consistently negative opinion of him was Snape.

* [[Determinator]]: In regards to Lily. Say what you will about him, but you have to admit that ''he would not give up'' on winning her affections.

* [[Happily Married]]: To Lily. [[Ron the Death Eater|Unless you listen to the]] [[Draco in Leather Pants|Snape]] [[Fan Girl|fangirls.]]

* [[Heterosexual Life Partners]]: With Sirius.

* {{spoiler|[[Jacob Marley Apparel]]: When he appears to Harry via the Resurrection Stone, he is said to be wearing the clothes that he died in.}}

* [[Victorious Childhood Friend]]: ''Friend'' might be a stretch, but victorious when compared to {{spoiler|Snape}}.

* [[Word of God]]: Contrary to the first movie, Jo says that he was actually a Chaser, not a Seeker.

 

== Lily Potter, née Evans ==

| First Appearance =

| Actor = Geraldine Somerville

}}

Harry Potter's mother, who was murdered by Voldemort and whose sacrifice for her son saved his life and started the events of the series.

* [[Badass]]: During the First War, she managed to escape Voldemort three times, before dying. Only three others, her husband included, ever managed this.

* [[Death by Origin Story]]: Harry’s story didn’t have a happy beginning, unfortunately.

* [[Give Geeks a Chance]]: {{spoiler|According to Rowling, a romantic relationship may have in fact developed between Snape and Lily if he hadn't called her a mudblood and hung around Dark Wizards.}}

* [[Killed Off for Real]]: She was far from Voldemort’s first victim, too.

* [[The Lost Lenore]]: {{spoiler|To Snape, her [[Unlucky Childhood Friend]].}}

* [[Mama Bear]]: Protects her infant son with [[The Power of Love|love]] so awesome {{spoiler|it helps him escape certain death ''from beyond the grave''.}}

* [[The Messiah]]: Apparently, [[Magnetic Hero|Harry]] inherited this trait from her. Her relationship with {{spoiler|Snape}} is a good example: {{spoiler|she, the clever, pretty object of the most popular boy in school's affections, was best friends with the poor, ugly, hot-tempered bully-magnet from her rival House. Yes, she eventually [[Feud Episode|breaks up with him]], but it's after years of watching him turn into a horrible person under the influence of Slytherin's junior Death Eaters, culminating in him calling her an unforgivable slur -- and it obviously breaks her heart to do it.}}

* [[Parental Favoritism]]: Maybe. Petunia accuses her parents of such, but it's unclear how much of it is the truth and how much of it is just Petunia's [[Green-Eyed Monster|jealousy and bitterness]] talking.

* [[The Power of Love]]

* [[Please, I Will Do Anything!]]: [[When It All Began]]

** [[Heroic Sacrifice]]: Considering [[My Death Is Just the Beginning|what it sets into motion]], hers may be the biggest sacrifice of the series.

* [[Posthumous Character]]

* [[Teen Genius]]

* [[Tsundere]]: Possibly towards James. The biggest factor keeping James from getting involved with Lily in their youth was his [[Jerkass]] tendencies.

* [[Tranquil Fury]]: {{spoiler|After Snape calls her "Mudblood". She doesn't go into a berserk screaming fit of rage, but it's clear she's pissed off nonetheless.}}

* [[What Beautiful Eyes!]]

 

== Frank and Alice Longbottom ==

| First Appearance =

| Actor =

* [[The Ace]]: Possibly. By Dumbledore's own word, they were extremely popular, and the whole Wizarding world was enraged after their attack.

* [[Badass]]: During the First War, they managed to escape Voldemort three times before being tortured into insanity. They could be arguably considered more [[Badass]] than most, as they were also Aurors and members of the Order, actively participating in the battle against Voldemort and the Death Eaters.

* [[Happily Married]]: That lasted for a tragically short time.

* [[Trauma-Induced Amnesia]]: Their eventual fate, with the trauma coming from the combined Cruciatus Curses from the Lestranges and Barty Crouch Jr.
