Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Harry has been reading "A History of Magic" hoping to find facts to help write his paper "Witch Burning in the 14th Century was Completely Pointless...Discuss". Which witch enjoyed being burned so much that she allowed herself to be caught no less that 47 times?

Answer: Wendelin the Weird

Upon arriving in Diagon Alley, Florean Fortescue himself helps Harry with this essay...while serving him free sundaes every half hour!
2. On his birthday, Harry received cards from, among others, Ron. Included in Ron's package was a Daily Prophet photo of him and his family in Egypt. In this photo, what type of hat is Percy wearing?

Answer: A fez

Ron's father won the annual Daily Prophet Grand Prize Galleon Draw. With the 700 galleon winnings, he took the entire family to Egypt. The Daily Prophet edition with this photo was given to Sirius Black by Fudge, and that's how Sirius found out that Peter Pettigrew (Scabbers) was still alive.
3. After running away from the Dursley's, Harry took up a room at the Leaky Cauldron. What number room did he stay in?

Answer: 11

During the week or so Harry stayed at the Leaky Cauldron, he was able to roam Diagon Alley as he wished, provided he was back before dark...imagine all those amazing shops!
4. While exploring all of those amazing shops in Diagon Alley, Harry returned almost everyday to gaze longingly at his dream broom, the Firebolt. What type of wood was the Firebolt's handle made of?

Answer: Ash

Mahogany was the wood the handle of Harry's previous broom, the Nimbus 2000, was made of. Holly is the wood of Harry's wand and yew is the wood of its brother wand, owned by Lord Voldemort.
5. While having dinner with Hermione and the Weasley family on the last night before their return to Hogwarts, Fred asks Mr. Weasley how they will be getting to King's Cross the following day. What does Mr. Weasley answer?

Answer: "The ministry's providing a couple of cars."

One of my all time favorite HP quotes follows Mr. Weasley's response: ""Why?" asked Percy curiously. "It's because of you, Perce," said George seriously. "And there'll be little flags on the hoods, with HB on them-" "-for Humongous Bighead," said Fred." Man do I love the Weasley twins!
6. When arriving for their first Care of Magical Creatures class, the students had all found ways of controlling their book "Monster Book of Monsters". How had Draco Malfoy restrained his?

Answer: Bound it shut with a length of rope

All of these were ways students kept their books shut...no one actually gets attacked by their book, though in the movie version, Neville does!
7. When battling the boggart in Defense Against the Dark Arts, what form did it take when facing Dean Thomas?

Answer: A Severed Hand

The boggart took the form of a banshee against Seamus Finnigan, a mummy against Parvati Patil, and though it did take the shape of a bloody eyeball, the book never says against whom; and of course, who could forget the dressed up Snape Neville forced it to become!
8. While Ron, Hermione, and his other classmates are in Hogsmeade, Harry stops in for a chat with Professor Lupin. What did Lupin tell Harry he had just taken delivery of for their next lesson?

Answer: Grindylows

When discussing why Lupin hadn't let Harry fight the Boggart, Lupin finds out that the boggart would have taken the form of a Dementor, not, as he had expected, Lord Voldemort. He then gives Harry a great compliment: "I'm impressed. That suggests that what you fear most of all is - fear. Very wise, Harry."
9. When having a drink in the Three Broomsticks with Rosmerta, Professor Flitwick, Cornelius Fudge, and Hagrid, Professor McGonagall orders which drink?

Answer: A small gillywater

The mead is for Hagrid (four pints!), the cherry soda for little Professor Flitwick, and the currant rum for the Minister.
10. For Christmas, Harry and Ron receive yet another handmade sweater from Mrs. Weasley. Ron's is, as usual, maroon. Harry's is which color?

Answer: Scarlet

Apart from getting Mrs. Weasley's thoughtful gifts, Harry also receives the present of a lifetime...his Firebolt! Though he doesn't have it for long, as Hermione thinks that it may be from Sirius Black (and she's right!) It then gets taken away by Professor McGonagall to be tested for any curses or jinxes.
11. In the book during Harry's first Quidditch match on his Firebolt, who is the new seeker for the opposing team?

Answer: Cho Chang of Ravenclaw

Here we get our first introduction to the beautiful Cho Chang! Though she doesn't appear in the movie version, her character will be appearing in the new "Goblet of Fire" movie...which I can't wait for!
12. What is the name of the man sent to execute Buckbeak, whom we later find out to be a Death Eater?

Answer: Macnair

Macnair was captured during the battle at the Department of Mysteries (DoM)in the Ministry of Magic in the "Order of the Phoenix". Avery was a friend of Snape's during their years at Hogwarts and was also captured at the DoM. Nott avoided Azkaban after Voldemort's fall, but was captured along with the others in the DoM. Rosier was also an old chum of Snape's who was killed while resisting arrest...he took a chunk of Mad Eye Moody's nose with him though!
13. While in the Shrieking Shack, Hermione argues that Peter Pettigrew can't be an Animagus because they must be registered with the Ministry of Magic. At the time, how many REGISTERED Animagi did Hermione say there had been in that century?

Answer: 7

Though there were only seven registered, we know that there were at least eleven actually running around. Sirius Black (dog), James Potter (stag), Peter Pettigrew (rat), and Rita Skeeter (beetle). I don't think the Ministry was very up to date!
14. After fighting off the Dementors, Ron, Harry, and Hermione are in the hospital wing being tended to by Madam Pomfrey. What is her first name?

Answer: Poppy

Penelope Clearwater is Percy's girlfriend, a Ravenclaw prefect. Perenelle Flamel was Nicolas Flamel's wife; they lived to be over 650 years old thanks to a Sorcerer's Stone. Pomona Sprout is the Professor of Herbology at Hogwarts.
15. After being captured by Snape, Sirius was being held in a room while waiting for the Dementors to perform their kiss. Where was the room located?

Answer: Thirteenth window from the right of the West Tower

Fortunately, Harry and Hermione were able to fly Buckbeak (or should I say Witherwings!) up to the tower and rescue Sirius.
