She’s such a good person that she has an excellent grasp of theory, and according to Rowling’s description, Hermione is an upright, competent, and logical character.

The winner of the Beauxbatons competition was Fleur Delacour, a witch who was part of Veela and possessed exceptional abilities and a keen mind. While she did not fare so well in the hedge labyrinth, she did very well in the first job, which involved fighting the dragon.
Because only the most talented witches and wizards are allowed to compete in this illustrious competition, it is evident that Fleur is a top student at France’s most prestigious magical school. Although not much else about her magic is known, it does appear that she is highly skilled with Charms. She was so skilled that she quickly put a dragon to sleep.
3. Luna Lovegood

Although just a supporting character that only appeared from Harry Potter 4 onwards, Luna Lovegood seems to capture a rather special affection from the audience. As for Luna herself, she is a Ravenclaw student with a personality and aura that exudes an unmistakable “silly” look and is known to be the one to keep her wand in her left earlobe. In addition, influenced by her slightly extraordinary personality, Luna also has an extraordinary fashion sense that will make others feel a bit weird, not to mention one of Luna’s strange jewelry.
It is because of Luna’s somewhat funny and strange features that make the audience feels curious and excited about this special girl. In addition, like Hermione, the character Luna in the movie is also played by an excellent actress, Evanna Lynch, so, understandably, she makes an impression in the eyes of the fans.
4. Bellatrix Lestrange

| Mother of Delphini | Mothered Delphini with Lord Voldemort |
There is no doubt that Bellatrix Lestrange was entirely and utterly treacherous, but just because she was evil doesn’t mean that she wasn’t a tremendous asset to the Harry Potter universe. Bellatrix, initially presented to the audience as Sirius Black’s cousin was a devoted follower of Voldemort. Her allegiance to the dark led her to engage in very heinous acts.
Bellatrix’s violent temper led to her becoming one of Voldemort’s most ruthless death eaters, and she was already a deadly witch with frighteningly high levels of expertise. Helena Bonham Carter’s portrayal of the wicked witch was one of the most compelling performances in the movie thanks to the ideal combination of childlike mannerisms and villainous demeanors that she brought to the role.

Ginny was the one who, during her first year of school, was tormented by Tom Riddle’s diary. Harry was the one who rescued Ginny, and she went on to become Harry’s bride later on.
The fact that Ginny is adored so much is probably because the Weasley family gave her a beautiful appearance and a somewhat unique personality. Ginny is proven to possess a natural gift for magic; the spells she performs are pretty powerful. Her speed of learning a spell is highly respectable, which is why she is one of the essential members of Dumbledore’s Army.

Lavender began her education in Divination while she was a student at Hogwarts, an area of study that captivated her. She joined Dumbledore’s Army in her fifth year of school.

Tonks was fiercely loyal to Dumbledore and the Order, and her behavior during the Battle of Hogwarts was both heroic and selfless. Unfortunately, this led to her tragic death at the hands of the Dark Lord. Tonks’s death was a monument to her character because she knew she might not live to see her son become an adult, but she fought regardless, demonstrating that she was courageous and more dependable than most others.

In addition, she was a part of Dumbledore’s Army, an organization that Harry Potter taught and commanded.
After that, in 1998, she participated in the Battle of Hogwarts. Padma emerged unscathed from the decisive conflict of the Second Wizarding War and went on to complete her education. Likely, she was there when Harry Potter and his friends finally defeated Lord Voldemort.

| Notable Moments | – Assisted in the treatment of injuries during the Battle of Hogwarts – Supported Harry Potter and his friends in their encounters with Dark forces |
| Recognition | Highly regarded by students and colleagues for her unwavering commitment to the health and safety of the Hogwarts community |
If you don’t recall, Madam Pomfrey served as the Matron of Hogwarts, which puts her in a similar role as the school nurse, albeit one with significantly more experience. If Madam Pomfrey had not intervened, approximately six kids at Hogwarts would still be unable to face the school day after exposure to the Basilisk. In addition, at one point or another, each of our three significant protagonists has been under Pomfrey’s care while in the hospital wing.
There is no doubt that she was an extraordinarily knowledgeable healer. She didn’t waste any time returning to work after participating in the Battle of Hogwarts, and she immediately started helping those injured during the conflict. She has brought relief to all of our heroes, so she should receive a lot more affection than she does.

This was done following Fudge’s plot to maintain eyes on Harry and Dumbledore and even prevent Harry from speaking out about the return of Voldemort. She caused all of her students to suffer, but Harry took the worst of it.
There is no question in anyone’s mind that Umbridge’s magic is superior to any student’s. She seriously considered using the Cruciatus Curse on Harry, even though she is not a particularly powerful witch. Just anybody can’t cast the Unforgivable Curses in such a manner.
15. Gabrielle Delacour
| Gabrielle Delacour | Information |
|---|---|
| Full Name | Gabrielle Delacour |
| Gender | Female |
| Nationality | French |
| Affiliation | Beauxbatons Academy of Magic |
| Family | Sister: Fleur Delacour |
| Notable Events | Participant in the Triwizard Tournament |

When she first appeared, she was about eight years old because, in season seven, she was 11 years old at the wedding of her sister Fleur and Bill Weasley.
She lives in France with her parents. In episode 4, during the Triwizard Competition, while Fleur was the champion of Beauxbatons, Gabrielle, Hermione Granger, Ronald Weasley, and Cho Chang became “targets” underwater for the champions to come and save. Fleur was unable to save Gabrielle on time because she was thwarted by the monster Grindylows and was forced to return. Harry Potter came to her rescue along with Ron. After this incident, Fleur became more sociable in Hogwarts.

After her death, she resided in the girls’ restroom on the second floor of Hogwarts. Myrtle was nicknamed Moaning Myrtle because she was always crying, whining, and complaining about her death. Myrtle is a Muggle-born sorceress from the House of Ravenclaw. She is depicted with flowing black hair, wearing a pair of pearl-encrusted glasses that cover her sad eyes. Unfortunately, she was the victim of a snake 50 years ago.
Most plumbing problems in the bathroom were caused by her venting her frustrations. So the women’s restroom, where Myrtle Weeping lived, had very little traffic. When Minerva McGonagall told Ron, Harry, and Hermione about the “Secret Room,” they became suspicious of Draco Malfoy. They used the low-traffic place as a place to make Polyjuice potions.
17. Madam Rosmerta
| Madam Rosmerta | Information |
|---|---|
| Full Name | Madam Rosmerta |
| Occupation | Innkeeper at The Three Broomsticks in Hogsmeade |
| Role in Wizarding World | Prominent figure in the Hogsmeade community |
| Association with Hogwarts | Regular supplier of beverages to Hogwarts students |
| Known for | Expertise in brewing and serving magical drinks |
| Relationships | Well-acquainted with Albus Dumbledore and Hogwarts staff |
| Goddess in Gallo-Roman Religion | Rosmerta was a goddess of fertility and abundance |
| Symbol of Plenty | Depicted with a cornucopia, representing abundance |
| Consort | Often depicted alongside the Roman god Mercury |
| Appearance | Welcoming and friendly, often seen in traditional attire |
| Importance | Provides a gathering place for witches and wizards in Hogsmeade |
| Trivia | Once placed under the Imperius Curse by Draco Malfoy |
Madam Rosmerta was a beautiful landlady of the Three Broomsticks tavern. In the series adaptation, actress Julie Christie plays Mrs. Rosmerta. Mrs. Rosmerta is very charming and manages her shop very well. Several students, including Ronald Weasley, were drawn to her. Rosmerta’s past before appearing in the series is not mentioned in the story.
She is one of the people loved by many of the top teachers at Hogwarts, including Professor Albus Dumbledore. Although depicted as still very charming, she is a generation ahead of James Potter, Lily Potter, Peter Pettigrew, Sirius Black, Remus Lupin, and Severus Snape. She was mentioned as having worked as a bartender while still a student.
18. Narcissa Malfoy
| Narcissa Malfoy | Information |
|---|---|
| Full Name | Narcissa Malfoy |
| Birthdate | 1955 (according to J.K. Rowling) |
| Other Names | Cissy |
| Portrayed By | Helen McCrory |
| Gender | Female |
| Eye Color | Blue |
| Hair Color | Blonde |
| Family | Father: Cygnus Black |
| Spouse | Lucius Malfoy |
| Children | Draco Malfoy |
| Grandchildren | Scorpius Malfoy |
| Residence | Malfoy Manor |
| Hogwarts House | Slytherin |
| Significant Alliances | Severus Snape |
| Notable Actions | Made an Unbreakable Vow with Severus Snape |
The fact that Narcissa Malfoy was a member of the Malfoy family made it very simple to take an instant distaste for her. Despite this, she did not exhibit the same harsh and sadistic conduct that appeared to be associated with the Malfoy name. She was known to be a supporter of Lord Voldemort, yet, she did not take part in the last battle, and it was made abundantly apparent that ensuring Draco Malfoy’s safety was her primary concern at all times.
Narcissa’s decision to tell Voldemort that Harry had been killed proved to be the deciding factor in his defeat. Her maternal instincts are similar to Molly Weasley’s in that they both loved their children without the condition, which is an odd thing to compare the two women to. Still, it’s impossible to deny the similarities.
19. Minerva McGonagall
| Minerva McGonagall | Information |
|---|---|
| Full Name | Minerva McGonagall |
| Harry Potter character | Yes |
| Portrayed by | Maggie Smith (Harry Potter films) |

| Notable moments | Protected the Philosopher’s Stone, led the Gryffindor Quidditch team, supported Harry Potter in the Triwizard Tournament. |
Although there were a lot of professors at Hogwarts, Professor McGonagall was one of a kind. No one else was quite like her. Teachers and students alike had a tremendous amount of regard for the lady who headed Gryffindor House, which was likely due to the direct manner in which she communicated with people and the fact that she had zero tolerance for improper conduct.
The three friends saw McGonagall as a father figure, and even though she carried herself in a somewhat authoritative manner, she was always there to guide them whenever they required it. Not only did she play the role of the solemn Professor, but she also had a sense of humor and was there to provide comic relief even when it was the last thing anyone anticipated.
20. Lily Potter

| House | Gryffindor |
| Blood Status | Muggle-born |
| Parentage | Mr. and Mrs. Evans |
| Marital Status | Married to James Potter |
| Children | Harry Potter |
| Known Achievements | None |
Lily Potter is a supporting role in the Harry Potter films when viewed in the broader context of the story. Nevertheless, she plays a role that is among the most significant. Lily, a powerful and talented witch and Harry’s mother, handed along many of her most excellent traits to her son. Harry inherited many of his mother’s best qualities. Lily’s love for Harry was unending, and her devotion to the idea that she should watch out for him ran so deep that she was willing to give her life for it.
Lily possessed an unrivaled level of bravery, and even though she had passed away, she never stopped looking out for Harry’s best interests. Even though her backstory is unquestionably one of the most heartbreaking, she will consistently be counted among the franchise’s most heroic characters.

At Hogwarts, Pansy Parkinson, who belongs to the Slytherin house and is Draco Malfoy’s buddy and girlfriend, is a member of the Slytherin family. However, they were never together because Draco had already settled down with Astoria Greengrass and was raising their son, Scorpius Malfoy.
She is also cruel, regularly making fun of Harry Potter and the people around him and spreading false information about Hermione Granger to the journalist Rita Skeeter, who writes for the Daily Prophet. During the struggle for the last victory, she had the intention of handing Harry over to Voldemort, but Professor McGonagall stops her and invites her out first. The Parkinson family, of which Pansy is a member, is one of the oldest purebred families in the wizarding world and has been around for 28 generations.

Even though Amelia put up a brave battle, she was killed in the second week of July 1996, even though it had been a year since her murder.
