Cedric

Cedric Diggory (September/October 1977 – June 24, 1995) was the son of Amos Diggory and his wife. He began attending Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in 1989 and was sorted into Hufflepuff House. During his time at university he was prefect and captain of the Hufflepuff Quidditch team, playing as Seeker. In his sixth year, Cedric put his name forward to compete in the Triwizard Tournament. He was chosen Hogwarts champion and, although Harry Potter overshadowed him in the press, Cedric enjoyed almost equal support from the student body and after the first two tests he was tied with Harry for first place. Cedric and Harry completed the third task together. They both grabbed the Triwizard Cup, which transported them to the Little Hangleton Graveyard. In the cemetery, Cedric was killed by Peter Pettigrew with the Killing Curse, under the orders of Lord Voldemort. During the ensuing duel between Harry and Voldemort, Cedric's echo reappeared during Priori Incantatem and helped the echoes of Harry's parents, Bertha Jorkins and Frank Bryce, restrain Voldemort long enough for Harry to escape. His only request was that Harry hand over his body to his parents, which Harry honored. Cedric was born in September/October 1977, son of Amos Diggory and his wife. He grew up near Ottery St. Catchpole, [1] a small town located in Devon, England. He began attending Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry on September 1, 1989. Cedric was sorted into Hufflepuff House and distinguished himself as an academic student and athlete. At some point he became Seeker for his house's Quidditch team and in his fifth year he was made prefect. In 1993, Cedric became captain and on November 7 he led his team against Gryffindor in the first game of the school year. [3] Originally, the match was going to take place between Gryffindor and Slytherin, but Draco Malfoy played up the fact that his arm was injured by the hippogriff Buckbeak so as not to play in stormy conditions. During the match, Cedric and Harry Potter fought over the golden snitch. However, Harry was overcome by the presence of the Dementors and fell off his broom. Cedric caught the snitch, but as soon as he realized what had happened to Harry, he immediately offered to play the game again. Oliver Wood rejected the offer, feeling that Cedric had won the match fairly.

On June 24, Cedric received a visit from his parents, who had been invited to watch the third test. During the meeting, his father confronted Harry about the press he received at the expense of his son. Cedric tried to calm him down and explained that it wasn't Harry's fault, and then apologized to Harry. Since they were tied for first place, Cedric entered the maze with Harry. They split up, each hoping to be the first to reach the Triwizard Cup located in the center of the labyrinth. A short time later, Cedric encountered one of Rubeus Hagrid's Blast-Tailed Skrewts and narrowly escaped being burned by it. After the Skrewt, Cedric encountered Viktor Krum. Krum, who was under the effect of the Imperius Curse at the time, attacked Cedric with the Cruciatus Curse. He was saved by Harry, who stunned Krum and reluctantly released red sparks to mark Krum's position, so that the Durmstrang champion could be taken out of the labyrinth. Despite being close briefly, he and Harry separated once again to search for the Cup. Cedric saw the cup and ran towards it as fast as he could. From his left, an acromantula came out to meet him and attacked him. The wand was taken from its hand, but Harry's arrival distracted the creature long enough for Cedric to retrieve the wand from him. Although the giant spider was too powerful to be taken down by a single spell, Harry and Cedric stunned it at the same time. Upon recovering, the two found themselves next to the Triwizard Cup. Having been saved by Harry twice in the maze, Cedric urged him to grab the Cup. The two argued over who should grab it and win the tournament.or, each pointing out that the other had helped them. Finally, Harry suggested that they both grab it so that victory would go to Hogwarts. Pleased, Cedric helped the injured Harry to the Cup and they both grabbed it. His touch activated the Cup, which had become a portkey, and the two were transported to the Little Hangleton Graveyard.

On November 24, the champions gathered and randomly selected miniature versions of a dragon with a number that indicated in which order they should face each other. Cedric chose the number one Swedish shortnose, so he entered the ring first to try to recover the golden egg. The dragon was watching. Confronting the dragon, Cedric transformed a rock into a plowman to distract the creature. When the dragon turned to hunt the dog, Cedric went in search of the golden egg. Although he recovered it, the dragon lost interest in the dog and preferred to go after Cedric. The dragon burned Cedric on the side of his face and he barely managed to get away from it. He was treated by Madam Pomfrey, who applied an orange paste to her face to heal her wound. Like all champions, Cedric had to decipher a riddle hidden in Oto's egg to prepare for the second task. He was helped by Barty Crouch Jr, disguised as the new Defense Against the Dark Arts professor, Alastor "Mad-Eye" Moody, who told him to take him to the bathroom and listen underwater. He took it to the prefects' bathroom on the fifth floor and opened it under the water. He heard the riddle but it took him a while to realize that it was referring to the lake water people. [1] At Christmas, Cedric had to attend the Yule Ball, a traditional part of the Triwizard Tournament. He asked Cho Chang to accompany him and she agreed. Towards the end of the dance, Cedric found Harry and told him to take his egg to the bathroom and "meditate on things in hot water" like he had done. As repayment for his warning about dragons, he gave Harry access to the prefects' bathroom to solve the riddle. On February 24, the second test took place. Having deciphered the riddle of the golden egg, Cedric knew that he had to breathe underwater for at least an hour and recover something that had been stolen from him. In fact, he used the bubble head charm and arrived at the mermen village shortly after Harry. He discovered that what had been "stolen" was Cho from her and rescued her from her. He warned Harry, who was worried about the other "hostages", to hurry up and then swam to the surface. He arrived a minute after the deadline and received forty-seven stitches. After two tests, he was tied with Harry for first place. Before the third task, Cedric, along with the other champions, joined Ludo Bagman to see the maze growing on the Quidditch pitch. Along with Harry, Cedric was shocked to see the Quidditch pitch like this, but Bagman assured him that he would return to normal when he finished the Tournament.

The Hogwarts motto is: "Draco dormiens nunquam titillandus". The translation is: Never tickle a sleeping dragon. Quidditch is the most popular sport at school, most students go to watch the matches. Hogwarts also has a choir that sings on special occasions. It also has a very unique anthem. It is played in an oval-shaped stadium (150 meters along the semi-major axis and 55 meters along the semi-minor axis), each side is equipped with three rings located at different heights. Three different types of balls are used for the game: Quaffle, Bludger and Golden Snitch. The most important ball during the game is the Quaffle, which is used to score goals by passing it through the team's hoops. On the contrary, passing them through the hoops earns 10 points, with which the Hunters play. Bludgers are balls that attack teams. They are small but heavy and fly powerfully and are caught by batters, who use small bats to prevent them from hitting a player on their team. And the Golden Snitch is a small golden and winged ball that is very fast and difficult to catch, which must be caught by the Seekers, catching it earns 150 points and the game is over. The game pits two teams of seven players each. There are different jobs among the players: a Guardian, two Strikers, three Hunters and a Seeker. The Guardian is a kind of goalkeeper who is responsible for preventing the opposing team from putting the Quaffle into their respective team's hoops. The Hitters are in charge of repelling the Bludgers, and if necessary directing them towards the opposing team. The Hunters are in chargeTry to insert the Quaffle through the opposite rings. Finally, the Seeker is in charge of being attentive throughout the game in order to catch the Golden Snitch before the opposing team. By catching the Golden Snitch, the game ends and the team that catches it wins 150 points. The fact that catching the Snitch awards such a high amount of points at once for the team whose seeker caught it, while also ending the match, often leads to the understanding that catching the Snitch automatically awards the Snitch. victory for the searcher's team that catches it. However, in reality, victory ultimately depends on which team has more points in its favor at the end of the match. In this way, it may happen that, despite the capture of the Snitch by the search engine of one of the teams, the winner of the match is the opposing team, since, after adding the 150 additional points to the team that has captured the Snitch and the game is over, the end result is that the team that didn't catch it has more points than the team whose Seeker caught the Snitch. This situation occurred in the 422nd Edition of the Quidditch World Cup, in which the teams of the National Teams of Ireland and Bulgaria faced each other; The final result of this match was that Viktor Krum (Bulgarian scout) caught the snitch, raising Bulgaria's score to 160 points and at the same time ending the match, but because Ireland had by then accumulated 170 points by scoring goals for their equipment. , it ended up being Ireland who won the match.

Cho Chang began dating Cedric when he asked him to be her date to the Christmas ball. She was very excited and both of them, along with the other champions and their partners, opened the dance. During the second test, Cho was "something" Cedric "valued the most", and she was placed in an enchanted sleep. Taken under the lake to the water people's village, Cedric rescued her. During the delivery of the test point, she gave him an enthusiastic look. Cedric and Cho also had a date at Madame Tudifoot's tea shop this year. Hogwarts uniforms are white shirts with black tunics with collar trim in their house color, incorporating silk ties in their house colors and occasional wool sweaters. The Prefects' Bathroom (also known as the Prefects' Bathroom) is a special bathroom on the fifth floor of Hogwarts Castle for the exclusive use of the school's Prefects, Headmasters and Quidditch Captains. It is located on the fifth floor, behind the fourth door to the left of the statue of Boris the Bewildered, and only opens when given the correct password. On one side of the room are cubicles with toilets inside. Opposite the bathrooms is a large pool-sized bathtub surrounded by faucets. This type of pool sinks into the ground and is not above ground. Soap bubbles of different colors and foam come out of the bathroom taps and there are several towels and bathrobes. In the bathroom there are almost a hundred golden faucets surrounding the entire pool-tub, with a different jewel embedded in each faucet. There are bath products of various types, such as soap, bath oil, bath powder, bath salts, shampoo, hairspray, and conditioner. As for the bathtub, one would imagine that it would take quite a while to fill, but it actually fills up very quickly, considering its size. Below the bathroom are sewers that can be accessed by blowing up a section of the wall. These sewers may or may not be part of the passages and tunnels in the Chamber of Secrets. Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry is a magical boarding school located in Scotland. The castle is located in mountains near a lake. The exact location has not been discovered as it is hidden by the most powerful enchantments possible. However, according to Hermione Granger, it's not too far from Dufftown. The spells that protect the castle are classified as anti-haunting spells and muggle-repelling spells (such as muggletum repello), which makes them see some ancient ruins with a "Danger, No Trespassing" sign instead of the castle. . These enchantments can be lifted by the Director. Most electronic devices do not work on Hogwarts grounds. At one point, Hogwarts had 1,000 students.

The portkey deposited Cedric and Harry in an unknown cemetery. Confused, Cedric recommended pulling out the wands until they figured out what was going on. Shortly after his arrival, Peter Pettigrew emerged from the darknesscarrying the small form of Lord Voldemort. At that moment Harry's scar hurt intensely, due to his proximity to Voldemort. Voldemort ordered Pettigrew to "kill the other" and used Voldemort's own wand to kill Cedric with the Killing Curse. [1] Harry heard the sound of the body hitting the graveyard floor. Although he was dead, Cedric still had a role to play in the events of the night. After Voldemort was resurrected, he and Harry dueled, during which their wands, which shared a core with a feather from the phoenix itself, connected, creating the effect known as Priori Incantatem, the reversal spell. Voldemort's wand began to regurgitate the last few spells he had cast backwards. Cedric's shadow emerged from Voldemort's wand, along with the shadows of Frank Bryce, Bertha Jorkins, and James and Lily Potter. Cedric's "echo" asked Harry to take his body to his parents while he helped the others. Harry agreed, and when he broke the connection of the wands, the shadows advanced towards Voldemort, protecting Harry. Harry took the opportunity to grab Cedric's body, then summoned the Cup and transported them both back to Hogwarts. Cedric's body was returned to the ground and Harry clung to him, refusing to let go until Albus Dumbledore pulled him away. The crowd that had gathered to watch the third task began to scream when they realized what had happened, and Cedric's parents were grieving over the fate of their fallen son (although his mother tried to console herself by thinking that Cedric had no a painful death). and that he died after winning the Tournament, so the victory had made him happy). [1] Main article: Cedric Diggory Memorial Ceremony Cedric's death was deeply felt at the university, and on June 26 the Farewell Party became a tribute to him, with black banners replacing the house colors. Dumbledore paid tribute to Cedric and relayed the events leading up to Cedric's death to the students, telling them, against the express wishes of the Ministry of Magic, that the young Hufflepuff had been murdered by Lord Voldemort.

Hogwarts It is one of the top three schools in Europe and trains people with magical abilities to become skilled wizards and witches. Its status is not discussed much in the Harry Potter novels, but it is known as a secondary boarding school serving children between the ages of 11 and 17. Hogwarts is funded through the British Ministry of Magic and tuition fees are paid by students. Students are required to purchase their own textbooks, coats, and other supplies. However, financial aid is available for those students who need it. There is a magical pen located at Hogwarts that detects the birth of a magical boy or girl and writes her name on a long scroll. During the summer, Professor Minerva McGonagall consults this scroll and sends a Letter of Acceptance to the boy or girl who would have turned eleven before August 31. The letter informing a student that he or she has an enrollment at Hogwarts Acceptance or rejection of a Hogwarts vacancy must be submitted by July 31. Average students are expected to purchase their materials from the shops on Diagon Alley, a secret street near the Leaky Cauldron (in London). Students who cannot afford such materials may receive financial aid from the school. Letters for Muggle-borns, who may not be aware of their powers or familiar with the wizarding world, are delivered by wizards themselves, who explain to parents everything about wizarding society and convince them not to. do. It's a hoax. Students travel to the stationKing's Cross in London to board the Hogwarts Express on platform 9¾. To get there they must run to the column between platforms 9 and 10. After a trip of several hours north, the train arrives at Hogsmeade station. From there, Rubeus Hagrid escorts the first-year students to small boats that (magically) sail across a lake to a grotto beneath Hogwarts Castle. Senior students travel to the castle in carriages pulled by thestrals. When first-year students first arrive at the castle, they do not go directly to the Great Hall.

Dungeon Potions Class. Long, housed in double class (capacity for twenty cauldrons). A gargoyle's mouth pours ice water in a corner. Students can observe their breathing during the winter months. Pureblood or pure blood is the name given to wizards who have a completely magical ancestry. This means that there are no Muggle, half-blood or Muggle-born wizards in their respective family trees. Half-Blood is the term commonly given to wizards and witches who have Muggle-born or Muggle-born parents or grandparents. Non-magical people, commonly known as muggles in Britain, nomaj [1] or nomage [2] in the United States of America, non-magique [3] in France, and spellless [3], are people who are born into a non-magical family and are incapable of magic. Most Muggles are unaware that magic exists and that wizards, having organized their own society, are largely independent of the Muggle world. The few Muggles who know about the existence of the magical world are usually the parents or close relatives of witches and wizards. Muggles are not to be confused with squibs, who also lack magic, but are born into wizarding families, filled with wizards. The term "muggle" is used widely in the wizarding world and is generally not intended to be offensive; in fact, it is often used affectionately. Some of the more prejudiced members of the community, however, use the word in the same context as the expression "mudblood."

A Head Boy (also known as Delegate in the Southern Cone version and in Spain) is a seventh year student who has authority over the prefects of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Each year, the current headmaster of Hogwarts selects one boy and one girl to fill this position. The student couple is instructed to fulfill the duties of attending school. They take with them both the prefects and, in many cases, the entire student body. A prefect at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry is a student who has been granted additional authority and responsibilities by the Head of House and the Headmaster. One male and female student from each house is chosen in their fifth year to serve as prefects, and will continue to be prefects in their sixth and seventh years until they graduate. Thus, there are approximately six prefects per house and twenty-four prefects in the entire school at the same time. The Head (or Delegate) Award may be chosen from among the seventh year prefects or not at all, as it depends on the performances that the individuals have had as prefects. Prefects can take house points from students in their own house, but cannot take points from other prefects. Prefects can impose detentions as a form of punishment. Prefects patrol the halls of the Hogwarts Express on the way to school and attend meetings in a special prefect car where they receive tutoring from the Head Boy. They also patrol the hallways to make sure students don't violate curfew. There is a bathroom with a large pool-shaped bathtub on the fifth floor of Hogwarts Castle that is reserved for prefects and Quidditch captains. It is located in the fifth door to the left of the statue of Boris the Bewildered. The only known password for this bathroom is "pine freshness", which was used during the 1994-1995 school year.

The day begins at Hogwarts with breakfast in the Great Hall. Students sit at their home table where they can eat, socialize, and do last-minute work. At the teachers' table, at the back of the room, the Director eats with the teachers. During breakfast, the owls (from the school or the students) bring the mail: it can be the Prophet, letters from their parents or friends, sweets, etc. A bell announces the start of the first class at nine in the morning. the morning. There are two long classes in the morning with a ten minute break between themso that students can get to their classes (the castle is huge and it is common for students, especially first years, to get lost). After lunch in the Great Hall, classes begin at one in the afternoon and there is a tea break before the next class period. Freshmen usually have Fridays off. In the afternoon, students dine in the Great Hall, after which they are expected to be in their common rooms to study and socialize. The four common rooms of the four houses are behind paintings or walls that require a password to enter (except for Ravenclaw, where the answer to a riddle is required). Inside the common room, where there are sofas and chairs for students as well as tables. There are also fireplaces to keep the rooms warm and students relax here in the evenings or complete their homework. There are billboards in each common room as well as at strategic points in the school. Each year it has two bedrooms: one for the ladies (they have a trap so children don't enter) and another for the gentlemen. Each student sleeps in a long four-poster bed, with a canopy and house-colored bedspreads and thick white pillows. There is a nightstand for each bed and each bedroom has a jug of cold water with glasses on a tray. On special weekends, third-year Hogwarts students, with signed permission slips, can go to the nearby town of Hogsmeade, where they can relax and enjoy the bars, restaurants and shops. There seems to be a good relationship between the school and the town and the students get along well with the locals. Favorite places in Hogsmeade include Honeydukes sweet shop, Zonko's joke shop (now closed), clothing stores such as Gladrags, Shrieking Shack (rumored to be the most haunted building in Britain, making it an attraction tourist), the Las Tres Escobas bar and Cabeza de Bar Puerco. In addition to losing house points, serious disobedience at Hogwarts is punished. According to the school's janitor, Argus Filch, punishments meant different forms of torture until very recently, but today it usually means helping staff or teachers with various jobs and tasks. Enforcing the rules outside of class falls to the custodian with the help of the prefects. The head of a student's family usually has the final say when it comes to discipline. In the summer, before starting fifth year, two students from the same year are elected prefects (Ron and Hermione), giving them additional privileges and other responsibilities; They remain as prefects, unless appointed delegates or stripped of their position, for the remainder of their school career. There are at least six prefects per house, from the fifth to the seventh year: if one of them is appointed delegate, they are not replaced as prefects. The delegate is appointed by the seventh year students. Prefects can reduce other students' house points for infractions, but cannot reduce other prefects' points. They can also give punishments.

Prefects have other responsibilities as student leaders. They show the first years the way to their dormitories on their first day at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, and oversee the castle decorations at Christmas (and presumably other events). They also keep an eye on younger students. when bad weather keeps them inside the castle during recess). [1] Once a student becomes a prefect, she has a better chance of becoming Head Girl; however, students are not required to have earned the above honor to become Head Girl. This fact was exemplified by learning that Remus Lupine was a Gryffindor prefect, but James Potter was later made Head Boy. Prefects receive a prefect badge; Its colors are the colors of the prefect's house and/or silver. [2] . They are supposed to wear the insignia on their uniforms.

Cho Chang began dating Cedric when he asked her to be her partner for the Yule Ball. She was very excited and they, along with the other champions and their partners, opened the dance. During the second test, Cho was "something" that Cedric "values ​​most", and she was placed in an enchanted sleep. Taken under the lake to the water people village, Cedric rescued her. During the handing out of the test points, she looked at him excitedly. Cedric and Cho also had a date at Madame Tudipié's tea shop during this year. [1] TheCedric's death was difficult for her and she cried a lot about it. [1] The following year, she became close to Harry and was confused and guilty about her feelings for him. However, their relationship did not last as she soon began using their new relationship to talk about Cedric and try to get closure about his death, which failed as Harry did not like to talk about it and refused, causing him to Cho will cry.
