Howler

# Howler (An-Harry Potter)

> You'd better open it, Ron. It'll be worse if you don't. My gran sent me one once, and I ignored it and — it was horrible.
>
> Neville talking to Ron about his Howler, Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets

A **Howler** was a magical letter in a red envelope which enchanted the written message into the writer's voice, usually at a very high volume, which increased if the recipient didn't open the envelope in a timely manner, even make it explode.Template:Object

## Description

The physical temperature of the Howler would begin to rapidly increase upon delivery, and it would explode if left unopened for too long. This mechanism ensured that the recipient would open the Howler, even though he or she knew that it contained an unpleasantly loud message. Once the message had been received, the envelope burst into flames, leaving only ashes.
The purpose of the Howler was to deliver a message expressing anger or great displeasure in a manner which standard writing could not adequately convey. As such, a Howler would convey the displeasure of its author/sender even if left unopened, for it would shower the recipient with insults and cursing upon exploding into flames.

## History

 File:Howler.png
Neville Longbottom mentioned receiving at least one Howler from his ***grandmother*** before 1992.
In 1992, Ron Weasley received a Howler from his mother after he stole his father's Flying Ford Anglia.
Harry Potter's ***Aunt Petunia*** received a ***Howler*** on ***2 August*** ***1995*** from Albus Dumbledore, after ***Vernon Dursley*** threatened to kick Harry out of their home after two ***Dementors*** ***attacked*** Harry and his cousin, ***Dudley*** in ***Little Whinging***. The Howler reminded Petunia of her pact to keep Harry safe at ***4 Privet Drive***.

## Behind the scenes

* Instead of simply being a red envelope that can explode, in Template:COS, Ron's Howler resembles a mouth with teeth (simulated by the red envelope and white paper, with a ribbon for the tongue) that screams at the recipient, then blows a raspberry and tears itself to shreds once finished shouting. Also, Mrs Weasley added a congratulations directly to Ginny for making it into Gryffindor, stating that her parents are proud of this sorting. This implies that the film version's Howler possesses a certain degree of sentience and awareness of its surroundings, as it turned to face Ginny to make this comment, changing its tone into a more calm and kind one.

* For the Howler scene, Julie Walters had to scream so loudly that she almost lost her voice at the end of the day.Template:Fact

>
> Ron Weasley on Harry's new broom, Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone

In October 1991, Harry Potter received a **Nimbus 2000 broomstick**.Template:Broomsticks

## History

This broomstick was arranged for Harry by Professor Minerva McGonagall after he was given a spot on the Gryffindor Quidditch team, as Seeker. He rode this broom in all school Quidditch matches until 1993, when, during a match against Hufflepuff, he was attacked by ***Dementors*** and fell off his broom. The broom crashed into the Whomping Willow and was broken beyond repair. His friends returned the remains to Harry in a bag, but he decided to keep them instead of throwing them away.
This was Harry's only broom that was not a gift from his godfather, as ***his Firebolt*** and his ***toy broomstick*** were both given to him by Sirius.

## Behind the scenes

* It's never explicitly stated who paid for this broom, however it's likely to have been McGonagall herself as she's the one who made arrangements for Harry to receive it and it's unlikely she'd have access to Harry's inheritance to use that to pay for the broom due to McGonagall not being his legal guardian.

Hex (An-Harry Potter)

> Harry had already attempted a few of the Prince's self-invented spells. There had been a hex that caused toenails to grow alarmingly fast.
>
> The toenail-growing hex, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince

A **hex** was a type of dark charm, whose effects caused moderate suffering to the victim. As a moderate type of dark magic, hexes were slightly worse than jinxes, but were not as dark as curses.Template:Real Magical Spell

## Usage

Hexes could be defended against using ***Hex-deflection***; ***Salvio hexia*** was a protective enchantment used for this purpose. Hexes could also be countered by using a ***Hex-Breaker*** or ***Hex Zapper***, which both countered their effects.
Hexes could be used in both a defensive and offensive capacity. For instance, Ginny Weasley gained a reputation for being an accomplished caster of the ***Bat-Bogey Hex***, particularly in ***1996*** after using it to free herself from ***Dolores Umbridge***'s ***Inquisitorial Squad*** and also for casting it on ***Zacharias Smith*** from her carriage on the Hogwarts Express.

## Etymology

The word "hex" may have been derived from Pensylvania German *hexe* meaning "to practise witchcraft" or German *hexen* "to hex", a meaning that the word still retains today when used as a verb. Its usage as a noun in contemporary English may refer to "a magic spell" or "a charm" and usually carries an connotation of ill will (though it used to refer to a an evil witch; such as a ***Hag*** as well). In Dutch, a witch is called a heks, which is pronounced the same way as hex.

## Behind the scenes

* Even though Rowling herself specified the differences between curses, hexes, and jinxes, she states that "*Within the Potter world, the boundaries are flexible and I imagine that wizards may have their own ideas.*" This shows that the categorisation of dark charms is not set and stone, and may sometimes be used interchangeably. This explains why some spells are known by multiple names, like why the ***Stinging Jinx*** is also sometimes known as the ***Stinging Hex***.

Extraordinary Legilimency Spell

> I am about to attempt to break into your mind. We are going to see how well you resist. I have been told that you have already shown aptitude at resisting the Imperius Curse.... You will find that similar powers are needed for this.... Brace yourself, now.... Legilimens!
>
> Severus Snape using this spell on Harry Potter, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix

The **Legilimency Spell** (*Legilimens*) was a charm that allowed the caster to perform Legilimency; in other words, to delve into the mind of the victim, permitting the caster to see memories, emotions and thoughts.
Template:Real Magical Spell
Skilled Legilimens (such as Tom Riddle) was able to perform Legilimency without using the incantation or a wand. Highly skilled Legilimens were able to control their victims and create realistic visions.

## History

During the ***1989–1990 school year***, Professor Severus Snape performed this spell on ***Beatrice Haywood*** in the ***Potions Classroom*** to help navigate and understand her thoughts and emotions.
In the ***1990–1991 school year*** at ***St Mungo's***, ***Jacob's sibling*** used this spell to perform Legilimency on ***Zenith Xeep*** in the ***Janus Thickey Ward***, so they could read her mind to see who was behind the curses at St Mungo's. Reading her thoughts, she learnt she was thinking about a Dark wizard called ***Burke***.

 File:Legilimens.gif
Professor Snape used this spell on Harry Potter while attempting to train him in Occlumency in the ***1995–1996 school year***. He also used it nonverbally and wandlessly in 1997 to find out where Harry learned the *Sectumsempra* spell.
Voldemort had used this spell extensively, both wandlessly and nonverbally, to enter the minds of those he wished to interrogate. Due to the link between himself and Harry, both could access each other's thoughts if Voldemort did not block it with Occlumency.

## Etymology

Latin *legere*, "to read", and *mens*, "mind".

## Behind the scenes

* As ***Bellatrix Lestrange*** taught her nephew Draco Malfoy Occlumency, it is likely she also used this spell to achieve the same method as Snape did Harry.
* In Template:LEGO, the ***Focus Charm*** is used in the place of "Legilimens". It is unknown why this change was made, as they both have the same effect. However *Focus* is only used to clear the mind. In the film Snape says that Harry has to clear his mind. It is possible that in LEGO, this spell was used before Legilimens.
* It is unknown whether there was an Occlumency-based spell, as opposed to this spell.

Hut-On-The-Rock

> ***Uncle Vernon*** was pointing at what looked like a large rock way out at sea. Perched on top of the rock was the most miserable little shack you could imagine. *[...]* As night fell, the promised storm blew up around them. Spray from the high waves splattered the walls of the hut and a fierce wind rattled the filthy windows.
>
> Description of Hut-on-the-Rock, Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone

The **Hut-on-the-Rock** (or **Shack-on-the-Rock**) was the name Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry gave to the hut that ***Vernon Dursley*** somehow managed to rent, in an attempt to move out of the reach of the letters Hogwarts was sending to Harry Potter, Vernon's nephew by marriage.

## Description

 File:B1C4M2 Harry's birthday cake from Hagrid.png
The hut smelled strongly of ***seaweed***, had only two rooms, a damp and empty fireplace, and was perched upon a rock way out to sea. The hut had only two pieces of furniture: a moth-eaten sofa and a lumpy bed. It was a rather rickety wooden structure which had filthy windows, and wind blew through the many cracks in the walls.

## History

 File:Hut-on-the-Rock (Concept Artwork).JPG  On ***30 July*** 1991, ***Vernon Dursley*** had hoped that being on a rock out to sea, in the middle of a storm, would be enough to prevent the letters — which were inviting Harry to attend Hogwarts — from reaching his ***family***. Out of a mistaken belief that wizards could not cross water, Vernon chose to resort to isolating Harry via the island, taking an ***old rowboat*** to get there. Vernon and ***Petunia Dursley*** despised magic and did not want their nephew, who was the orphaned son of a wizard and witch, to enter the wizarding world and thus increase their exposure to it.

 File:B1C4M1 Hagrid at the Hut-on-the-Rock.png  In spite of all their efforts, however, Rubeus Hagrid, the Hogwarts groundskeeper, was able to reach the hut by flight. He forced his way inside, dealt with Vernon's ***gun*** and gave Harry his acceptance letter. While there, he gave ***Dudley Dursley*** a pig's tail in response to Vernon insulting Albus Dumbledore, whom Hagrid respected and admired greatly. It was on this occasion that Harry first learned he was a wizard, the truth about his parents' deaths, and of the existence of Lord Voldemort.
Harry and Hagrid then, in the morning, escaped the hut using the same ***vessel*** that Harry and the Dursleys had used to reach it, leaving the Dursleys to return to the mainland by other means.

Miss Velma-Dace Dinkley via Her Live-Action Appearance

**Miss Velma-Dace Dinkley** is the highly intellectual, but introverted member of Mystery Incorporated.Template:Member

## Appearances

### Portrayed by

Linda Cardellini

File:Profile - Miss Velma-Dace Dinkley of First Live-Action Movie.PNG

## Physical appearance

Velma is a twenty-something year old Caucasian female, with shoulder-length brown hair and eyes. She is always wearing thick black-framed glasses, due to the fact that her vision is blurry. She is always wearing and orange sweater and a darker orange colored skirt. She wears dark orange colored shoes and light orange socks with them.

## History

### Early life

Velma grew up with the rest of the gang in Coolsville, attending Coolsville High together. **In their travels, they gained another member in Scooby-Doo's nephew, Scrappy-Doo, until they got sick of him and left him in the middle of the desert.**

### *Scooby-Doo: The Movie*

The gang were hired to catch the Luna Ghost at the Wow-O Toy Factory. After the case was solved, Fred Jones took credit in front of the press, which upset Velma, so she quit the group, as did Fred and Daphne Blake, leaving Shaggy Rogers and Scooby-Doo alone with the Mystery Machine.
Mind-Reading

# Mind-Reading( Of Harry-Potter)

A wizard performing mind-reading
Template:Dialogue a-b
**Mind-reading** was the magical ability to perceive the thoughts or feelings of others through extrasensory means. According to Severus Snape, this term was used only by Muggles and was a notably inaccurate description of Legilimency (as there are far broader possibilities for this ability). Nonetheless, the magical art of Legilimency could achieve mind-reading, as could the mental connection that was shared by Voldemort and Harry Potter, which resulted from a piece of Voldemort's soul that lodged inside of Harry's body.

Mrises China Girl

***Mrises China Girl*** is the tetratagonist from the 2013 Disney film *Oz: The Great and Powerful*. She is a doll from her village of China Town, where everything, including the inhabitants, is made of china. Eventually, she encountered Oscar Diggs and they strike up an unlikely friendship. **She is voiced by Joey King.**

## Physical description

### Gender

Female

File:Profile - Miss China Girl.PNG

## History

**China Girl was in her house in China Town when Evanora's Winged Baboons came and destroyed her town, shattering most of her people. Her legs shattered, and unable to walk, she hid in the wreckage of her house, terrified.** When Oz and Finley arrived, China Girl was afraid of them and hid initially. When Oz won her trust, he soon fixed her legs with glue and helped her to walk again. When Oz and Finley left to find and kill the Wicked Witch, China Girl asked to go with them. Oz initially refused, and told her to go back to the Emerald City, but she persisted with an emotional display and finally Oz allowed her to come. The trio traveled through the Dark Forest, where they met Glinda. Glinda took them to her castle, where, after being confronted by Theodora, Oz soon lost hope of being able to defeat the witches. But China Girl asked him to tuck her in at night. While he was doing so, she asked if he could grant wishes like the previous wizard. He replied that he was not that kind of wizard, but that he aspired to be a wizard like Thomas Edison -- a technical wizard. She said she believed him to be that kind of wizard, which inspired him. **Once he had scared off the Wicked Witches, he welcomed her into his family at the Emerald City, and China Girl said it was the perfect gift. (*Oz the Great and Powerful*)**

## Physical Appearance

China Girl is a short and slender china doll. She has her white china body and hair, blue eyes, and indigo linings on each end of her joints. Her clothes are a periwinkle dress with a low cut neckline, short sleeves, both aqua waistband and border on her bottom skirt, and black Mary Jane shoes.

**St. Jerome's Church** was a small church in Godric's Hollow. It was located close to the village square and next to a small graveyard. The area leading up to the church was called Church Lane. It was quite old, having been built in or before the ***thirteenth century***.

### Location

High Street, Godric's Hollow, West Country, England

## History

### 1990s

In the 1990s, the parochial vicar was the Revd. Dr Stephen Swain. Eucharist was held every Sunday at 9:30 a.m. and 11:00 a.m. and on the weekdays (times posted on the church notice board). Eucharist was also held in religious festivals, such as Christmas, and baptisms were also conducted on this holiday. The parish also arranged weddings and funerals and Eucharist was held there on every Sunday and weekdays in church. Saint Jerome was the patron saint of this church.
There was a large stained-glass window with a depiction of the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus over the door to the church.

## Behind the scenes

* The name of the church was not given. A sign giving the church's name as the "Parish Church of St Clementine" appeared. The church's canonical name was finally revealed as "St Jerome's Church".

Hogwarts Quidditch Pitch

> Hundreds of seats were raised in stands around the pitch so the spectators were high enough to see what was going on. At either end of the pitch were golden poles with hoops on the end.
>
> The Quidditch pitch, Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone

Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry had its own **Quidditch pitch** where Quidditch teams could practise, hold try-outs and play matches against each other. Each year would see a total of six inter-house matches (with each house competing for the ***Quidditch Cup*** playing against every one another), along with numerous training sessions by each house team.

### Location

Hogwarts Castle grounds, Scotland, Great Britain

## Description

 File:Quidditch Pitch.JPG
The stands surrounding the pitch were decorated differently for each Quidditch match at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Every second stand would be decorated with the colours of one team, and every other stand with the colours of the opposing team. Spectators would sit in between these stands.

## Behind the scenes

 File:LEGO Quidditch.jpg
* In the films, the pitch is very similar to the one described in the ***books***, but the location of the pitch changes in most of the films. In the first three films, it appears to be on the same side of the castle as the ***Training Grounds*** but down a hill. In *Half-Blood Prince* the pitch is closer to the lake down past ***Rubeus Hagrid's cabin***.
	+ Also in the films, the pitch is decorated with all of the school colours, as opposed to only the colours of the houses that are playing against each other. In addition there are two stands in the centre of the pitch that are coloured in black and white.
* In Template:COS, a trench was added around the edge of the pitch for the scene where Harry is chased by the rogue bludger.

Mary Jane is a Caucasian female with a light tan, with long, curly blonde hair, and brown eyes. When she met Shaggy, she wore an orange shirt and a long denim skirt. Prior to the Demons' attack, she had switched to a sparkly pink, long-sleeved top with a notably short hem, exposing her belly and back, and brown shorts. After being possessed, the demon in control of her body switched her outfit to a red bikini top covered by a lace yellow vest, with the tails parting to her sides, once again exposing her midriff, and jean-shorts.

## Personality

She is kind-hearted, and has a secret fondness for Scooby S Snacks. She and Shaggy instantly hit it off when they met. After being freed, she accepted Scooby, despite her allergies.

Bludger

> The Bludgers rocket around trying to knock players off their brooms.
>
> Oliver Wood, Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone (film)

A **Bludger** was a black ***iron*** ball used in the wizarding sport of Quidditch. It was ten inches in diameter. There were two Bludgers used in every match, which were bewitched to fly around and try to knock the players off of their broomsticks. It was the ***Beaters***' job to protect their teammates from the Bludgers and at the same time aim them towards the opposing players.Template:Object

## History

 File:Bludger.gif  Early Bludgers (known as *Blooders*) were simply rocks bewitched to chase players around the field. These were eventually too fragile, and could be smashed by a ***Beater's bat***, which ended up with players being chased by flying gravel for the rest of the game. After a few years, Bludgers were made out of lead, which was also too soft for Bludger manufacture. The magically reinforced Beater's bats could dent it, thus impairing their ability to fly straight. All Bludgers are currently made of ***iron***. The history of this latest development was discovered by ***Agatha Chubb***, who discovered ***sixteenth-century*** lead Bludgers in an English peat bog.
In 1992, Dobby the House-elf magically tampered with a Bludger to make it only chase Harry Potter, while it would normally try to attack all players equally.

## Behind the scenes

 File:Quidditch Bludger Ball (Concept Artwork) 1.jpg   File:Bludger - PAS.png
* Assuming a Bludger is solid iron, it would weigh approximately 149 pounds, as a sphere 10 inches in diameter has 523.6 cubic inches, and iron weighs 0.2845 pounds per cubic inch.
* *Wizarding World of Harry Potter* sells toy Bat and Bludger sets. But the bludger ball measures 5 inches in diameter instead of 10.
* The bludgers are black in the books, but in the films they are dark brown.

### Etymology

The word is probably derived from "bludgeon".

Mister James-Potter-00I's Wand

> Your father, on the other hand, favoured a mahogany wand. Eleven inches. Pliable. A little more power and excellent for transfiguration. Well, I say your father favoured it — it's really the wand that chooses the wizard, of course

> Mr Ollivander's description, Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone

**James Potter's wand** was 11" long, made of ***mahogany***, and possessed an unknown core. The wand was described as "pliable" and as "*excellent for Transfiguration*". The wand was manufactured by Garrick Ollivander.Template:Wand

## History

> He was over the threshold as James came sprinting into the hall. It was easy, too easy, he had not even picked up his wand....
>
> James forgets to pick up his wand when Voldemort arrives, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows

 File:James tormenting Severus flashback.gif  This wand was purchased at Ollivanders by James I before he began his education at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. This wand later proved itself useful for Transfiguration; in James's ***fifth year*** when he became an illegal Animagus. Also while in school James used this wand to jinx students at random. He frequently bullied Severus Snape with it, such as taking off Snape's trousers in their fifth year.
It can be assumed he wielded this wand throughout the First Wizarding War, while being a member of the Order of the Phoenix.
On the night of 31 October, 1981, James had been using his wand to entertain his infant son Harry Potter and had left it on the sofa when Lord Voldemort arrived. As a result, he was murdered instantly. It's unknown what happened to the wand after the death of its owner, but it is possible it was buried with him.

Necromancy

> The Inferius is a corpse that has been reanimated by a Dark wizard's spells. It is not alive, it is merely used like a puppet to do the wizard's bidding.
>
> Severus Snape regarding necromancy, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince

**Necromancy** was the Dark Art of raising the dead. It was also the branch of magic used to create ***Inferi*** and ***charmed skeletons***.Template:Real Magical Spell

## Nature

Albus Dumbledore mentioned in his notes on Beedle the Bard that necromancy was "a branch of magic that has never worked". Assuming the original goal of necromancy was to bring people back from the dead, this is mostly true: whilst it was possible to create Inferi, these were mindless creatures with no soul or intelligence, despite possessing human corpses and hence were not truly "raised" persons.
The necromancy spells used for the purpose of creating Inferi were curses.

## History

In 1932, Gellert Grindelwald killed a ***Qilin***, a ***creature*** with the ability to detect and distinguish the pure of heart, to make it appear that it designated him as a worthy candidate as ***Supreme Mugwump***. He revived it in an indoor pool of green and black undulating water at ***Nurmengard Castle***, by placing its corpse in the water while muttering the incantations *Rennervate* and ***Vulnera Sanentur***. However, the effects of this dark magic were not everlasting, as the revived Qilin died again during the ceremony, which was only a day after it was revived.

Tom Riddle was a notable practitioner of this branch of dark magic, having created an army of Inferi during the First Wizarding War, mainly from the corpses of people he had murdered. Possibly his largest army of Inferi inhabited The Cave where he hid Salazar Slytherin's Locket, to protect it from potential intruders. He further grew his army of the undead during the Second Wizarding War, which often created thick grey mists in the areas they occupied.

## Behind the scenes

* If the Resurrection Stone was truly created by Cadmus Peverell rather than given to him by ***Death*** himself, it could be seen as a work of necromancy, since it too was created with the purpose of bringing back the dead, albeit in a completely different way.

Lead

# Lead (Harry Potter)

**Lead** (chemical symbol: **Pb**) is a chemical element; a soft, malleable heavy metal. Lead has a bluish-white colour after being freshly cut, but it soon tarnishes to a dull greyish colour when exposed to air. Lead is a highly poisonous metal, and whether swallowed or inhaled it will negatively affect almost every organ and system in the human body; thus its use has been widely phased out due to its well-known strong toxicity.

## History

The earliest Bludgers were made of lead. It was discovered, however, that lead was too soft a metal to make a good Bludger, as it was easily dented by Beater's bats, affecting the Bludger's ability to fly straight. As such, future Bludgers were made of iron.
Just prior to his Sorting on ***1 September***, 1991, Harry Potter's legs felt like lead because of the nerves, just as he was stepping into the Great Hall for the first time. After the ceremony and the feast, Harry's legs were noted to have felt as if they were made of lead once again, although this was only because he was very tired and full of food. On the day of the Gryffindor vs Slytherin Quidditch match in 1992, the sky was noted to resemble the colour of lead.
Known Unicorn Blood

> The blood of a unicorn will keep you alive, even if you are an inch from death, but at a terrible price. You have slain something pure and defenceless to save yourself, and you will have but a half-life, a cursed life, from the moment the blood touches your lips.
>
> Firenze informing Harry Potter about the nature of unicorn blood, Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone

**Unicorn blood** was a thick, silvery ***magical*** substance that ran within a ***unicorn***'s veins.Template:Ingredient

## Description

The blood of a unicorn could be drunk in order to keep a person alive. However, the act of slaying a unicorn would cause the drinker to suffer a ***cursed*** life, though the specifics of what this actually entailed were not well known. It was probably non-tradeable, since the sale of this substance was controlled by the ***British Ministry of Magic***, making it strictly forbidden. ***Firenze*** and Harry Potter both believed that only those who had nothing to lose and everything to gain would dare drink unicorn blood.

## History

> Wormtail's body, of course, was ill adapted for possession, as all assumed him dead, and would attract far too much attention if noticed. However, he was the able-bodied servant I needed, and, poor wizard though he is, Wormtail was able to follow the instructions I gave him, which would return me to a rudimentary, weak body of my own, a body I would be able to inhabit while awaiting the essential ingredients for true rebirth... a spell or two of my own invention... a little help from my dear Nagini, a potion concocted from unicorn blood, and the snake venom Nagini provided... I was soon returned to an almost human form, and strong enough to travel.
>
> Voldemort describes the rudimentary body potion, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire

 File:Unicorn blood 1.jpg
In 1992, Lord Voldemort used unicorn blood to sustain his life, until he could steal the Philosopher's Stone in order to regain his true body. As he was possessing Quirinus Quirrell and inhabiting his body at the time, Quirrell drank the blood on Voldemort's behalf. This was because Quirrell's body was dying as it is from sharing it with Voldemort's fragmented soul.

 File:Voldemort drinking unicorn blood.jpg
Late in the ***1991–1992 school year***, when Harry Potter, Hermione Granger, Ron Weasley, and Draco Malfoy were caught out of bounds, they were punished with detention in the ***Forbidden Forest***. At the edge of the forest, they joined Rubeus Hagrid, the Hogwarts gamekeeper, who told them that a unicorn had been injured and that they were to search for it. Prior to splitting up the group, Hagrid pointed out the unicorn blood on the ground.

## Behind the scenes

* Pottermore seems to give the spell a time limit; perhaps house-elves can only cast it for a certain amount of time before tiring, or perhaps the spell truly will only last fourteen seconds; the cause, however, is at present unknown.
* This spell and *Levioso* have curiously similar effects; it may be that the two are the same, or potential variants.

Mister Shoeshine Unger

**An Shoeshine Unger** is The Civilian Name .Template:Animal-CharacterFile:Profile - Shoeshine The Kanine.PNG

## Trivia

* The scene where Underdog and Sweet Polly eat spaghetti together is a parody of the similar iconic scene from Disney's *Lady and the Tramp*.
* Underdog is a canine spoof of the famous comic book superhero Superman. Also, Shoeshine is based on Superman's secret identity, Clark Kent.
* In the original animated series, Underdog was an anthropomorphic character named Shoeshine because he literally shined shoes for a living, and he would always take his super energy pill whenever he was weakened or in a jam. He was also voiced by Wally Cox.
Life-Debt

> Pettigrew owes his life to you. You have sent Voldemort a deputy who is in your debt... When one wizard saves another wizard's life, it creates a certain bond between them... and I'm much mistaken if Voldemort wants his servant in the debt of Harry Potter... This is magic at its deepest, its most impenetrable, Harry.
>
> Dumbledore explains the power of a life debt to Harry, Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban

 File:Peter Pettigrew before Harry Potter.jpg  A **life debt** was a magical bond formed between a wizard or witch and the person whose life they saved. The one who owed the debt to the saviour would one day be obliged to repay the deed by doing something beneficial to the said saviour. Such a bond could be formed between even the worst of enemies and regardless of whether either of the involved parties wanted it or not. As this bond was magically binding, the indebted could commit the repayment without acknowledging it, or even against their will.

## Behind the scenes

* Both known life debts are related to Harry's benefit, and both the indebted parties died protecting him.
* ***J. K. Rowling*** has stated Ginny did not owe Harry a life debt for his rescue of her in the Chamber of Secrets.
* It is unknown whether Arthur or Ron ever had life debts to Harry, for being rescued after being attacked by Nagini in ***1995***, and given a ***bezoar*** after being poisoned in ***1997***, respectively. If it is true that Ron once owed Harry a life debt, he presumably repaid it by saving Harry from drowning in ***1998***. Seeing that Ginny did not owe Harry a debt, it may be possible that neither Arthur nor Ron owed him either. In turn, its also possible that Harry owes Ron a life debt for saving his life in the Forest of Dean.
* It is unknown if life debts can be made between animals and people, but if so Harry may be in debt to Fawkes the Phoenix for saving him from the Basilisk venom, and Dumbledore might have been in debt to Fawkes for swallowing the Killing Curse during his duel with Voldemort, although it should be noted that an instance where a Phoenix would require the repaying of a life debt would be rare, if even possible, given that they are, in all known cases, reborn after death.
* In Template:DH, Pettigrew never repaid his life debt, as he was knocked out by Dobby instead of strangling Harry, thus he never released him on an impulse of mercy. This was most likely done as the scene of Pettigrew strangling himself seems too violent for a PG-13 movie.
