3. Who did Draco Malfoy marry?
4. What did Dudley see, the night of the Dementor attack on him and Harry?

5. Ik denk niet dat ze hier echt op kan antwoorden, of ze moest het terplekke verzinnen... Als het niet in het boek staat, staat het niet vast. We zullen bvb ook nooit weten hoe en door wie Lupin en Tonks vermoord zijn...

Jawel, die antwoorden zijn er wel: zie het interviw dat aan het
begin van deze topic wordt genoemd ^^

1. hier is geen antwoord op gegeven
2. Harry wordt hoofd van de schouwers bij het ministerie; dat Voldemort dood is wil nog niet zeggen dat alle duistere tovenaars weg zijn...
3. hier is ook geen antwoord op gegeven
4. Dirk zag hoe hij eigenlijk zelf was
5. Lupos is vermoord door Dolochov en Tops door Bellatrix

@polyjuicepotion dat van Luna is wel genoemd. Zij gaat fabeldieren bestuderen en gaat trouwen met Rolf Scamander de kleinzoon van Newt Scamander. (Later dan Harry & Co )Ze gaat nog op zoek naar de Kreukelhoornige Snottifant, en ze heeft ze nog nooit gevonden. Ze denkt uiteindelijk ook maar dat haar vader die verzonnen heeft en dat ze niet echt zijn.

Daarbij heb je die quote van de eerste pagina gepakt. Vind je het gek dat ze toen het antwoord op die vragen nog niet wisten. Het hele interview was toen nog niet geweest.

het is idd verstandig om alle blz door te lezen, alleen hoeven we er niet over te vallen.

@polyjuicepotion: lees de vorige blz nog een keer door, en je komt een hoop antwoorden op je vragen tegen. Daarnaast posten we hier meer info, zodra die bekend wordt. Dus blijf het volgen.

nou er is weer iets duidelijk via accioquote:
* House elf ownership is unlicensed. They live for an average of 200 years. Their loyalty is to their house more than its inhabitants. They can be ordered to kill themselves. They are powerful enough to override wizards' enchantments. They breed infrequently and only with their master's permission.
* There are no female centaurs.
* There are no male Veela.
* Hags have four toes on each foot, but are only able to do rudimentary magic.
* The Great Fire of London was started by a young Welsh Green Dragon being kept in a basement.
* The animal form of a patronus does not determine its strength.
* Muggle-born witches and wizards usually have an ancestor (possibly very distant) who was a witch or wizard.
* Muggles can't produce even elementary magic even if they have access to a wand and spell book.
* A secret task force of Wizard and Muggles helped the Allies to victory in the Second World War.
* Witches and Wizards live in every country in the world, but not every country has a wizarding school.
* The flying carpet trade is banned everywhere except the far East.
* Egypt hosts the world's largest centre of Alchemical studies.
* The age at which wizards can legally perform magic is 17 throughout the world.
* It is illegal to apparate between countries, but travel by portkey is allowed if both countries give permission.
* There is no wizard royalty.
* No authorization is required to send owl mail internationally.
* Foodstuffs can be increased, transfigured, summoned from a distance and magically cooked, but not conjured out of thin air, and some things can't be transfigured into food.
* It is impossible to transfigure animate objects into inanimate objects.
* Occlumency can't guard against possession.
* No spell can guard against Cruciatus Curse.
* A poison victim can be cured without the correct antidote, but curing a curse victim requires the correct counter-spell, and you need to know who or what a person or object was originally to un-transfigure them.
* The location and name of Hogwarts were chosen by Rowena Ravenclaw, who dreamed that a warty hog was leading her to the cliff by the lake.

degene die dit beweerd heeft vele malen de wombat test geprobeerd en kwam er achter dat deze beweringen moeten kloppen.

het staat nog niet op de site van accio quote maar ik vind het wel interessante informatie.

@Terryboot dat zijn de antwoorden op de WOMBAT test nummer 3. Ik weet dus niet of JKR dat echt allemaal zo bevestigt heeft, en dat de antwoorden van de WOMBAT dus nu online staan. Maar dat zijn ze wel allemaal.

Ik heb weer nieuwe informatie en misschien nieuwe antwoorden. Ik zet ze voor de zekerheid in spoilers.

SPOILERS!

What exactly happened when Voldemort used the Avada Kedavra curse on Harry in the forest?
Again, Voldemort violated deep laws of magic he did not understand, but there is more to it than that.

Having taken Harry’s blood into himself, Voldemort is keeping alive Lily’s protective power over Harry. So Voldemort himself acts almost like a Horcrux for Harry – except that the power of Lily’s sacrifice is a positive force that not only continues to tether Harry to life, but gives Voldemort himself one last chance (Dumbledore refers to this last hope in chapter 35). Voldemort has unwittingly put a few drops of goodness back inside himself; if he had repented, he could have been healed more deeply than anyone would have supposed. But, of course, he refused to feel remorse.

Voldemort is also using the Elder Wand - the wand that is really Harry’s. It does not work properly against its true owner; no curse Voldemort casts on Harry functions properly; neither the Cruciatus curse nor the Killing Curse. The Avada Kedavra curse, however, is so powerful that it does hurt Harry, and also succeeds in killing the part of him that is not truly him, in other words, the fragment of Voldemort’s own soul still clinging to his. The curse also disables Harry severely enough that he could have succumbed to death if he had chosen that path (again, Dumbledore says he has a choice whether or not to wake up). But Harry does decide to struggle back to consciousness, capitalises on Lily’s ‘escape route’, and pulls himself back to the realm of the living.

It is important to state that I always saw these kinds of magic (the very deepest life and death issues) as essentially un-scientific; in other words, there is no “Elder Wand + Lily’s Blood = Assured Survival” formula. What count, ultimately, are Harry and Voldemort’s own choices. They have each been given certain weapons and safeguards, but the power of these objects and past happenings lie in how they are understood, and how they are used or enacted upon. Harry has a deeper and truer understanding of the meaning of the objects and past events, but his greatest powers, those that save him, are free will, courage and moral certainty.

What exactly was the mutilated baby-like creature Harry saw at King's Cross in chapter 35 of 'Hallows'?
I’ve been asked this a LOT. It is the last piece of soul Voldemort possesses. When Voldemort attacks Harry, they both fall temporarily unconscious, and both their souls - Harry's undamaged and healthy, Voldemort’s stunted and maimed - appear in the limbo where Harry meets Dumbledore.

Harry and Dudley: Future Hope?
A couple of people have told me that they hoped to see Dudley at King’s Cross in the Epilogue, accompanying a wizarding child. I must admit that it did occur to me to do that very thing, but a short period of reflection convinced me that any latent wizarding genes would never survive contact with Uncle Vernon’s DNA, so I didn’t do it.

However, I know that after Dudley’s brave attempt at reconciliation at the start of Deathly Hallows, the two cousins would have remained on ‘Christmas Card’ terms for the rest of their lives, and that Harry would have taken his family to visit Dudley’s when they were in the neighbourhood (occasions dreaded by James, Albus and Lily).
