And calling Voldy Tom is sure to tick him off, which is just fun all around.

That was a nice touch in the series. Voldemort is a pretty grand name; I always wondered how wizards end up with such names. Is somebody born 'Saruman' or 'Voldemort'? It's much better explanation that Tom took it from somewhere.

BTW, before his wizarding days Gandalf was Buck Johnson, and Saruman was just known as .. Tim. Once they started slingin' fireballs they had to come up with proper wizarding names. It's all in one of those Middle-Earth guides.

Harry Potter is good D&D PC material; much more pissed of for losing his stuff (Wand in this case), than he was for losing Mad-Eye, a party member. Sounds like a D&D character to me

Which is what Harry did during their final confrontation

Two reasons. If they were forced to go on the run it would be harder for Voldemort's forces to keep tabs on them and it would make it much more obvious to the world that the Dark Lord had taken over. Harder for people to convince themselves to look the other way.

A third reason - I think that most of the Order of the Pheonix made thier houses unplottable, so that they couldn't easily be found. They'd all gone pretty much underground and were not easy to find, even by wizards.

Well, Mad-Eye went down fighting the good fight. Harry needed his wand to survive, since he was still banking on the twin core effect to help save his ass. Hedwig was a good and loyal friend. He also lost his Firebolt, and never gave that a second thought.

Yeah. I'm sure there were some really heavy enchantments laid around a lot of the houses with secret keepers and whatnot.

I don't remember that. When did that happen?

I wonder what a normal 7th year at Hogwarts is like.

Probably not much different than a 5th year. You get some career counselling, you take NEWTS instead of OWLS, but they're probably similar.

Maybe wizarding recruiters come to the school?

 

[Rykion]

Of course, funny enough, Harry never had all three at the same time, so...

He didn't physically have all three, but he had the cloak, the stone and was the true owner of the wand.

I don't remember that. When did that happen?

He dropped it while in the flying motorcycle's sidecar.
