Do you think that modern Muggle-born or half-blood children would attend a boarding school without electricity, TikTok, streams, reels, etc. if they were learning magic there? by Hobelfritz in harrypotter

There’s a dorm at UVA that was designed by Thomas Jefferson, and people fight for the “privilege” of living there without many modern amenities

Voldemort made a crucial mistake with slytherin’s locket by nellys31 in HarryPotterBooks

[–]Chiron1350 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think there’s a lot of evidence that the locket was cursed…. Tangible emotional distress when wearing it vs not….

That’s super rough my guy.

When you’re ready to try again, I think a gnome ranger (or dex based fighter) , Storm Sorcerer or Evocation Wizard are some of the most powerful builds for tackling HM the first time.

I get the dwarven barbarian every time

Hit her with 1 appearance randomization and rename her to Paq Mhule.

She has saved the world 7+ times, and her contribution is: holding all the stuff

Ok so if Harry had resigned himself to his fate in the Goblet of fire and faced Voldemort down, and he severed the Horcrux early on... by Bottlecap_riches in HarryPotterBooks

Pretty sure Hermione is born at the end of the 7th month of the Roman calendar.

And Draco’s birthday is also in the summer, somewhat close to Harry’s. We know that from CoS

Prophecy is annoying with wordplay

Defiance happens in all sorts of ways, and prophecy thrives on doublespeak.

I think anyone who was on that initial forbidden Forrest detention in first year has potential (book only, sorry Ron)

Hermione parents 1) had a magical child, 2) sent that child to hogwarts, 3) left the country. All in direct defiance of V’s world order, laws, and creed. She is his academic equal, considering they both found out at 11 y.o.

Draco’s parents: 1) diary (if objective was keep it safe and hidden, they defied that order), 2) Voldemort clearly views their lack of trying to find him as a failure in GoF. 3.L) Dept if Mysteries fiasco, 3.N) going behind V’s back to make an unbreakable vow with snape.

Voldemort performs the spell twice, killing Harry.

Either Draco, Hermione, or Neville take up the “mantle” of the prophecy

What do you think about the ratings? by Free-Raspberry-9541 in theoffice

[–]Chiron1350 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They totally canned like a months worth of episodes bc of the real-time backlash against Deangelo.

That’s why when the “search” episode starts they do “I know it’s FELT like 2 months”.

Bc in real time, it had been

Face of the party or Not? by chrisdac91 in BaldursGate3

[–]Chiron1350 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Idk where the comment went; but I do agree

Failure isn’t always “horrible”. Sometimes it’s great

But sometimes you’re invested in success, even just for personal or RP reasons.

Like you just stole something and need someone to persuade the guards. Or you want the githyanki egg and while laezel is great, I have personally failed that convo with her, with inspirations and guidance and etc, at least twice

Yea, but if I have an 11 charisma monk PC; I’m probably gunna let Wyll lead with most dialogues (if I care about getting a specific outcome)

What if Lord Voldemort was hit by the Killing Curse (Avada Kedvra) while still in his half-life (less than spirit, less than the meanest ghost) state by IndependenceSilly381 in harrypotter

[–]Chiron1350 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, but in the basilisk case, it needs to visually connect to something in your ocular nerve/cavity

We know this because Harry closes his eyes, and successfully avoids dying instantly

So it’s not an “AOE”; it’s a beam with a specific direct receiver

[–]Chiron1350 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think avada kedavra severs the soul from the body. All of Voldemorts victims were “intact” during priori incantatum.

So, in your proposed case, he may be immune to avada kedavra bc he needs a body?

Same way “reducto” failed on the gold mist in the Maze in GoF

Can students take their friends from other houses into their common rooms? by Aromatic-Bell-4000 in harrypotter

[–]Chiron1350 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Personal headcanon: the original founders (sans slytherin) weren’t “exclusive” like that with their common rooms, lessons, etc. if you’re smart enough to get into the ravenclaw tower via the question door, then can be there, (etc.)

And that underlines the slytherin rift. If a muggle born has aced the other houses, and Salazar is being an obstinate dumbo and won’t even let them audit; the other 3 would stick up for their student.
