Harry Potter series? Oh, just a little collection of seven books by J.K. Rowling. It tells tale of Harry, an orphan who finds out he is a wizard and heads to Hogwarts. He teams up with Ron and Hermione to take on dark wizard Voldemort while dealing with typical teenage issues in a world full of spells. This series has enchanted everyone, from toddlers to grannies. It has spawned movies, tons of merchandise and even theme parks. Who knew magic could be so profitable?

Meet the boys from Harry Potter

Harry Potter

Harry is the awkward-hero type with a lightning scar and a chronic habit of running headfirst into trouble — but like, somehow he always means well. He’s brave and stubborn and embarrassingly loyal, the sort of person who’d give you his last bit of cake even if he secretly wanted it back five minutes later. Loves Quidditch (obsessed is too mild), hates being in the spotlight and also inexplicably ends up there, which is the best and worst thing about him. Tiny detail: has a terrible sense of fashion but is inexplicably great at finding lost things (and friends).

Draco Malfoy

Draco is slick, polished, cold-on-purpose, and spends more time preening his hair than you’d expect a villain to, honestly. He radiates entitlement but there’s this quiet, weary vulnerability under the silver-blond exterior — like a perfect statue that sometimes wants to cry into a silk handkerchief. Sharp wit, sharper family expectations, and a talent for making you feel judged (and secretly curious). Ridiculous little quirk: collects expensive combs and insists he doesn’t care about praise (except when he totally does).

Cedric Diggory

Cedric is the golden-stand-up guy: charismatic, fair, ridiculously good at everything without being a jerk about it (mostly). He embodies “quiet confidence” — Hufflepuff-ish loyalty meets natural leadership, and everyone kind of just trusts him to do the right thing. Charming smile, competitive spirit, and a tendency to make daisy-chain metaphors when he’s nervous (I swear). Odd tiny note: might have a secret hobby with gardening trophies or polishing his pens, who knows.

Tom Riddle

Tom is slick charm turned dangerously cold, the kind of smooth-talking genius who makes you forget to be suspicious until it’s already too late. Brilliant, obsessive about bloodlines and control, he collects followers like other people collect postcards, and everything about him feels rehearsed — in the worst way. There’s an old-school aristocrat vibe (and yes he can be almost devastatingly polite before he isn’t), like a history teacher who becomes a storm. Also: somehow has the neatest handwriting for someone planning world domination, which is unnerving.

Neville Longbottom

Neville is the ultimate underdog-turned-hero and yes, you can get a little emotional just saying his name. He starts out shy, forgetful, and a bit clumsy (plants everywhere), but he grows into this quietly stubborn, loyal champion of the small and overlooked, which is the best kind of growth arc. Loves herbology like it’s a sacred text and carries a trowel like a badge of honor — surprisingly tender with leaves. Fun contradiction: still sometimes trips over his own feet while also being terrifyingly good at standing up when it counts.

Viktor Krum

Viktor is intense, stoic, and single-minded about Quidditch — like if a rock could play Seeker, it would be him, but also with weird adorable moments of social awkwardness. He speaks bluntly, trains hard, and has this brooding-hero energy that’s actually kind of endearing; also he can be disarmingly sweet in small, staccato sentences. Mysterious in a good way, loyal to his team, and a bit uncomfortable with too many words about feelings (so he uses his eyes instead). Little oddity: collects smooth stones from places he plays (or maybe it’s just one lucky pebble), who knows.

Ron Weasley

Ron is the giant heart on legs — loyal, hilarious in the best and most embarrassing ways, and forever hungry (snacks are basically his love language). He’s fiercely devoted to his friends, ridiculously competitive at chess (champion energy), and simultaneously insecure about everything and capable of the kind of bravery that surprises even him. Loves family chaos, hates being underestimated, and has a home’s-comfort vibe with a plate of burnt toast always nearby. Tiny contradiction: claims to hate fancy things but will absolutely show off when it’s needed.

Oliver Wood

Oliver is pure Quidditch intensity — drill-sergeant captain, plays every moment like it’s the final, and has a strategic brain that’s also a little dramatic (big speeches, big plans). Obsessed with practice, lucky charms, formations, and the idea that everything can be fixed with discipline and an extra broom. Deep down he adores the sport for reasons that aren’t just winning; it’s ritual, it’s family, it’s sacred. Quirky aside: probably has a whistle collection and cries a little when someone drops a goal.

George Weasley

George is the glitter-eyed prank genius who can make you laugh and then feel oddly comforted about the chaos of life. Co-founder of Weasleys’ Wizard Wheezes, inventor of chaos as a business plan, and perpetually the one with a smirk and a hidden trick up his sleeve. Warm, mischievous, and secretly sentimental (he keeps a receipt from the first store he sold a product at, I swear). Little contradiction: constantly joking but will get fierce and protective in a heartbeat.

Fred Weasley

Fred is the louder, wilder twin — fearless, gleefully anarchic, and the engine behind practically every scheme you’d admire and then possibly regret. He loves fireworks, puns, and the exact moment a prank reaches peak ridiculousness; always plotting, always laughing, and somehow also very perceptive about people. He and George share brainwaves, but Fred’s the one who’ll push the boundary just a little further (and then giggle). Random extra: probably collects ridiculous hats and definitely thinks socks are underrated as gifts.

Seamus Finnigan

Seamus is the firecracker friend — literal explosions in class, quick with a joke, and somehow impossibly cheerful about life (even when things blow up). Loyal, upbeat, and a little superstitious, he brings warmth and chaos in equal measure and is terrible at keeping his hair from standing up after a spell goes wrong. Surprisingly good-natured and actually quite brave when it counts; he’s the friend who laughs off disasters and then quietly fixes them. Tiny oddity: might secretly be a connoisseur of oddly flavored toffees, don’t ask how that went.
