The series is full of magic, adventure, and suspense. But what makes the series so captivating are the characters. Each character is unique and plays an important role in the story.

In this blog post, we will take a look at all of the major Harry Potter characters, their roles in the series, and their importance. We’ll also answer some questions about these iconic characters!

Harry Potter

Harry is the main protagonist of the series. He has jet black hair, is skinny, and has green eyes – like his mother – but otherwise, he looks very much like his father James Potter. Harry wears circular glasses and has a lightning bolt scar across his head as a result of the attack of Lord Voldemort when he was just a baby.

He is the child of Lily and James Potter, who were both members of the Order of the Phoenix. However, his parents were both killed when he was just a year old in the same attack that gave him his famous scar. As such, he grew up with his aunt and uncle until he was 11 and was visited by Hagrid, who told him he was a wizard and whisked him off to Hogwarts.

Harry is a talented wizard. He excels in Defense Against the Dark Arts and can produce a fully-fledged Patronus charm by his third year, which is a rare skill. He is a Parselmouth, meaning he can speak to snakes, a skill he picked up from Voldemort himself. He also has a natural affinity for flying, which means he becomes the youngest Gryffindor seeker in a century.

Ron Weasley

Ron is Harry’s best friend and sidekick. He is the youngest son of Arthur and Molly Weasley. He has red hair (which he inherited from his father), is freckle-faced, and is the tallest out of all the Weasleys. Ron comes from a large, poor family of pure-blood wizards; he is the youngest of 6 brothers and he also has a little sister. Ron is also not as academically gifted as his siblings and he struggles with some classes at Hogwarts. He is also terrified of spiders.

Ron is loyal, funny, and brave. He is always there for Harry when he needs him and he is always willing to help out, even if it means putting himself in danger. He was one of the first to join the D.A., and in the Order of the Phoenix, he fought in the Department of Mysteries alongside Harry. He is also fiercely protective of his family and friends. Ron eventually marries Hermione Granger and they have two children – Rose and Hugo.

Hermione Granger

Hermione is Harry’s other best friend. She is a Muggle-born witch, meaning her parents are Muggles (they have no magical ability) who are both dentists and very supportive of her. Hermione is extremely intelligent and studious. She is always top of her class and takes a lot of extra classes and reads a lot outside of school.

Hermione is also slightly bossy, and sometimes a bit of a know-it-all. However, she only wants what is best for her friends and she is always there to help them. She is also very brave and loyal and becomes a Prefect in her fifth year. She marries Ron Weasley and they have two children.

Albus Dumbledore

Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore is the Headmaster of Hogwarts during the majority of the Harry Potter series. He is considered to be the greatest wizard of his time.

He always does what he thinks is right, even if it means making difficult decisions.

Dumbledore is known for his discovery of the 12 uses of dragon’s blood, his work on alchemy with his partner Nicholas Flamel and his defeat of Gellert Grindlewald. After this battle, Dumbledore became the Headmaster of Hogwarts.

Dumbledore also mentored Harry and began the quest with Harry to find the Horcruxes and also frequently gave Harry difficult tasks to do. Dumbledore dies at the end of the Half-Blood Prince after being poisoned by a ring (which was a Horcrux).

He is always there for his friends and he would do anything for them. Hagrid is also a bit of an outcast. He was expelled from Hogwarts when he was thirteen because he was accused of opening the Chamber of Secrets. This was actually not true – it was Tom Riddle who did it, but Tom framed Hagrid, and so he was expelled.

Hagrid also has a love of magical creatures. He bought a dragon egg from a stranger, even though he knew it was against the law. He also takes care of Aragog, the giant spider, and Buckbeak, the Hippogriff, and becomes Care of Magical Creatures teacher in Harry’s fourth year. Hagrid is a very important character in the Harry Potter series. He helps Harry through a lot of his challenges and he is always there for him.

Draco Malfoy is one of Harry’s main antagonists throughout the series. He is a Slytherin and he comes from a family of pure-blood wizards. He also later becomes a Death Eater, although he does not fully believe in their cause.

Malfoy is a very proud person and he is also quite prejudiced, as shown when he calls Hermione a Mudblood. However, he does eventually start to change his ways. Malfoy is also a bit of a coward. However, Malfoy does have some good qualities. He is a very talented wizard and he is also very brave on occasion. For example, he begins to back down when he is ordered to kill Dumbledore and he saves Harry’s life in the Deathly Hallows because he does not reveal that he knows who Harry is.

Malfoy is an important character in the series because he shows that people can change and that even those who seem bad can have some good in them.

Severus Snape

Severus Snape is one of the most complex characters in the Harry Potter series. He is a Slytherin and he is also a Death Eater. However, he later changes his allegiances and becomes a double agent, working for both the Order of Phoenix and Voldemort. Snape was deeply in love with Harry’s mother, Lily Evans.

However, they do have a serious side too. They also join the D.A and fight alongside Harry in the battle of Hogwarts. George also loses an ear to Voldemort’s curse, when they are bringing Harry to a safe house in the Deathly Hallows, but he doesn’t let that stop him from fighting.

He was raised in an orphanage, and only found out he was a wizard when Dumbledore came to visit him at the orphanage. He then went to Hogwarts, where he was sorted into Slytherin, which makes sense as he is the blood heir of Salazar Slytherin.
