But if we all think back to Harry and Ginny's kiss in the final movie, then it shouldn't be a surprise that he's on the shorter side.
The Gryffindor chaser and Ginny's ex-boyfriend is 6 feet and. Images: giphy ; rebloggy ; giphy 4. James's stag Patronus and Animagus form.
Since James was once asked by Voldemort to join his Death Eaters , this was clear proof that James was a highly powerful and accomplished wizard. Remus once stated that James had been one of the cleverest Hogwarts students of his time, [5] and he was able to conjure a corporeal stag Patronus , [14] which was a mark of superior magical ability. James was born into a very wealthy pure-blood family. He had an excellent relationship with his parents, who loved him very much.
His father was Sorted in Gryffindor and used to tell him about how the house prized bravery and boldness above all other qualities. James' parents were on the older side when he was born and died before he was murdered in Lily Evans , his wife and mother of his son. James's relationship with Lily Evans was initially a rocky one. While James was a popular student and talented Quidditch player, well-liked by most, Lily was unimpressed with him.
This had to do with James' hostile relationship with her best friend, Severus Snape and because of James' bad habit of hexing innocent students just for the fun of it. James had developed romantic feelings for Lily by his fifth year.
He was always going out of his way to try to impress her, only to end up making a fool out of himself most of the time. She still regarded him as an arrogant bully, treating him with absolute disdain. James and Lily were both members of the Order of the Phoenix , and together defied Voldemort himself three times. Their son, Harry James Potter, was born on 31 July , Harry was born to James and Lily Potter on 31 July , , they loved their son more than anything.
On Hallowe'en night in they sacrificed themselves at 21 years old, in order to save him from Lord Voldemort , when he was just an infant. Harry regarded his parents with great reverence, and fiercely defended their memories.
In , he punched Draco Malfoy for insulting his mother, [45] and he frequently became furious with Professor Snape , who taunted Harry that James was not the great man others made him out to be. He matured and changed his ways, or he would never have become Head Boy and his mother would have never agreed to go out with him, let alone fall in love and marry him. Harry Potter , his son and only child. The few times Harry ever saw his parents were through pictures given to him by Rubeus Hagrid , a vision within the Mirror of Erised , spectral forms which came out of Voldemort's wand during Priori Incantatem , stored memories within the Pensieve, and again as spectral forms when he "recalled" them during the Battle of Hogwarts , by using the Resurrection Stone.
His spirit was described as " exactly the same height as Harry. He was wearing the clothes in which he had died, and his hair was untidy and ruffled, and his glasses were a little lopsided, like Mr Weasley 's, a loving smile on his face ".
Both James and Lily told their son that they were tremendously proud of him, for being so brave and strong despite all the pain and suffering he had to endure, and provided him with the support he needed to sacrifice himself to Voldemort.
Harry later avenged his father when he killed Voldemort at the end of the Battle of Hogwarts. It's also seen that James calls Harry by a name of affection, he has on different occasions referred to him as " son ".
Harry eventually named two of his children after his late parents and godfather, James Sirius and Lily Luna Potter. James's first meeting with his brother-in-law Vernon Dursley went badly. Vernon asked James what car he drove, but James described his racing broom , thus Vernon started patronising him and finally offended James by supposing out loud that wizards had to live on unemployment benefit.
Having heard from the wizard that he had a fortune in solid gold, he grew angry and stormed out of the restaurant, where they had met with their wives.
After that Vernon refused to talk with James, but described him, within James' earshot, as " some kind of amateur magician ". After Lily and James' deaths, Vernon and Petunia reluctantly adopted Harry due to the sacrificial protection that shielded Harry from Voldemort.
However, the Dursleys spent the following ten years doing everything in their power to prevent Harry from learning about his magical heritage and abilities, such as lying about how Lily and James died by attributing their deaths to a car crash. He met Sirius on the Hogwarts Express in their first year, and they seemed to bond quickly. In their second year, when the group discovered that Remus was a werewolf , they refused to ostracise him, as most would, instead learning to become Animagi in order to keep him company during his transformations.
The four friends enjoyed untold popularity while at school and particularly liked playing pranks together; they also invented the Marauder's Map and all joined the Order of the Phoenix , after graduating from Hogwarts.
Although he was very close to all of his friends, James was probably closest to Sirius, whom he loved as a brother and who moved in with James and his parents after running away from home at age sixteen. James also chose Sirius as his best man at his wedding to Lily , as well as his son's godfather. When the Potters became Lord Voldemort 's targets in , James was adamant about Sirius being their Secret-Keeper , though he agreed to Sirius's plan to make Peter the Secret-Keeper instead, to throw off the enemy.
James's unshakeable trust in his friends would be his undoing, as Pettigrew betrayed him, his wife, and his son to Voldemort. This betrayal was something Sirius and Remus later attempted to kill him for. The only thing that stopped them was Harry, who thought that his father would not want his best friends to become killers just for a traitor. Dumbledore later assured Harry that his belief had been right, saying that he knew James very well, both at Hogwarts and later and he was perfectly sure that James would have saved Pettigrew as well.
The ending to the three Marauders who had stayed true to their friendship to the very end — James, Sirius, and Remus — was bittersweet: though they all lost their lives to the two wizarding wars, they died as heroes of the Order of the Phoenix, and in the case of James and Lupin, devoted fathers who had tried to give their sons a better world to live in.
The three were likely reunited forever in the afterlife. Severus Snape , his hated rival. James met Severus Snape on the Hogwarts Express in their first year at Hogwarts, and the two immediately got off on the wrong foot. James scoffed at Snape's desire that he and Lily Evans would be Sorted into Slytherin house, while Snape sneered at James's hope that he would follow his father's footsteps and end up in Gryffindor. He and Sirius bestowed the mocking nickname of " Snivellus " on Snape at this first meeting.
According to Sirius, Snape envied James's popularity and Quidditch talents, and always tried to get him and his friends in trouble, while James despised Snape's fascination with the Dark Arts. James also frequently bullied Severus Snape during his fifth year, the memories of which could be viewed in Snape's Pensieve. Later, it is revealed that James and Snape would regularly pass snide remarks and taunts towards each other. Although James disliked and bullied Snape, in the end, James never wanted Snape dead despite his distaste of him and risked his life to save Snape's when Sirius played a potentially lethal prank on him by sending him to the Shrieking Shack when Remus Lupin was there transforming.
However, Snape despised being in James's debt and felt, even twenty years later, that James only saved him to avoid expulsion. Most of his dislike of James's son Harry was motivated by seeing his old rival in Harry, as well as a constant reminder that Lily had loved another man. Snape was also involved in James's death: Snape was the Death Eater who relayed the Prophecy that foretold the birth of the one who would defeat Snape's then-master Lord Voldemort.
Snape intervened by pleading for Lily's life, while ignoring the danger into which his actions put James and Harry. However, Snape never forgot James' bullying or earlier arrogance, and constantly projected many of James' flaws unto Harry during their interactions as teacher and student.
This was one of many factors that led to Harry hating Snape during this period, until Harry witnessed many of Snape's repressed memories and gained a better understanding of Snape's loyalties. Ironically, despite their mutual antipathy, James' second grandson was named after Snape years after both of their deaths.
Albus Dumbledore , his former headmaster. James always had a good relationship with Albus Dumbledore. Dumbledore was the Headmaster of Hogwarts at the time James attended the school. He became fond of James knowing that, despite his being an arrogant, highly mischievous trouble-maker, he was also a kind-hearted, good-natured person. James became a member of the Order of the Phoenix , an organisation founded by Dumbledore, during the First Wizarding War and fought in several battles with him.
Dumbledore also attempted to protect James, Lily, and Harry from Voldemort, who was out to kill their son by offering to be their Secret Keeper. However, the role of Secret Keeper went instead to Peter Pettigrew , which turned out to be a fatal mistake, as Peter was, unbeknownst to them, a spy for Voldemort. When James and Lily were murdered by Voldemort, Dumbledore was devastated. After death, Dumbledore was amused and impressed that James, Sirius and Peter became Animagi without his knowledge.
Albus later became a mentor to James's son , and they shared an intimate relationship, more like a grandfather and his grandson, rather than a headmaster and his pupil. Dumbledore often sympathised with Harry about the grief and loneliness caused by his parents' death, and would comfort him at times when he really needed it.
He also firmly believed and emphasised many times that Harry's love for his parents, James and Lily, was the reason why he had a power stronger than Voldemort's. Years after James and Dumbledore's deaths, the former's second grandson was named after the latter.
Minerva McGonagall , his former head of house and teacher. McGonagall was simultaneously fond of, and exasperated with James: she knew that he was a mischievous trouble-maker and often played cruel pranks on some of his school rivals such as Severus Snape , but she also knew that he was a clever and talented wizard, and essentially a good person; overall, they had a good relationship, which presumably improved significantly after James cleaned up his act, and became worthy of being made Head Boy.
Upon learning of James and Lily's deaths a few hours after they were murdered, McGonagall was devastated, and barely managed to keep her composure. The original Order of the Phoenix. James did have a good relationship with most of the members of the Order of the Phoenix , during the First Wizarding War. He might have been friendly with some members, such as Elphias Doge and Alastor Moody , as they were all members during the first war and most likely fought in several battles together.
It is possible that James had many other friendships during his time in the Order, but they were unknown; his most famous friendship being the one he shared with the Marauders. Most of the original members of the Order were killed during the Second Wizarding War ; only a few of them managed to survive.
