HOGWARTS
LV and Death Eaters take over Ministry, and reopen Hogwarts with Snape as headmaster.
HORCRUXES
Harry & crew decide not to attend Hogwarts, but instead travel over England to destroy the remaining Horcruxes.
3. Slytherin’s locket, taken from Umbridge in the Ministry
4. Hufflepuff’s Cup, robbed from Gringotts with a goblin’s help
5. Ravenclaw’s Diadem, from the Room of Requirement
6. Nagini, beheaded by Neville with Gryffindor’s sword
7. Harry’s scar, an incomplete horcrux that LV fucked up
HALLOWS
The Hallows consist of three objects used to evade death (as alternatives to the evil Horcruxes):
1. The Elder Wand, whose wielder wins every duel
2. The Resurrection Stone, used to bring people back to life
3. The Invisibility Cloak
DUMBLEDORE
Albus Dumbledore was a half-blood from Godric’s Hollow. He was childhood friends with Grindelwald, who also sought these Hallows; together, they were plotting to get them and take over the world “for the greater good.” He also had a sickly sister, who supposed “Squib,” whom he neglected and later died. Like LV, he once wanted to take over the world, to conquer death. LV murdered countless people and made Horcruxes, while Dumbledore searched far and wide to unite the Hallows with Grindelwald. However, the main difference between the two is that Dumbledore later felt remorse: he defeated Grindelwald after his sister’s death (caused by his own neglect, and perhaps his own wand) and realized that what he was doing was wrong. This is the reason he never became Minister of Magic despite having been asked several times.
SNAPE
Was obsessed with Harry’s mother as a child, but broke up after he called her a Mudblood. Asked LV to spare her in exchange for Harry. When this failed, promised Dumbledore he would protect Harry at all times. His Patronus was the Silver Doe who led Harry to Gryffindor’s sword. Dies when LV orders Nagini to kill him. Dumbledore’s death was planned in advance to trick LV into getting the Elder Wand.
THE FINAL BATTLE
Harry defeats LV by deflecting his killing curse back at him (Expelliarmus) when all his Horcruxes have been destroyed.
DEATHS
LV, Snape, Lupin/Tonks, Wormtail, Bella, Moody, Dobby, Ted Tonks, Fred, Crabbe, Hedwig, Rufus Scrimgeour, Colin Creevey, Bathilda, Charity (Muggle Studies teacher), Nagini, Gregorovitch (wandmaker), for a grand total of 18
