Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Which of these characters is NOT one of Harry Potter's close friends?

Answer: Draco Malfoy

Harry's other friends include Luna Lovegood, and Neville Longbottom who bonded mainly through the D.A (Dumbledore's Army). Draco Malfoy is Harry's arch enemy who come from a family of death eaters. Harry and Draco duel in book two, 'Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets'.
2. Which of these is NOT a name or nickname for Harry's godfather?

Answer: Regulus

Sirius Black is Harry's godfather. He was wrongly sent to Azkaban before escaping and finding and befriending Harry. In the climax of 'Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix' Sirius is Stupefied by Bellatrix Lestrange and falls through the veiled archway, consequently dying.
3. Harry's best friend Ron Weasley's parents have a total of twelve grandchildren. Which of these is NOT one of them?

Answer: Teddy

George and Angelina have Fred and Roxanne, Percy and Audrey have Lucy and Molly, Harry and Ginny have James, Albus, and Lily, Ron and Hermione have Hugo and Rose, Bill and Fleur have Victoire, Louis and Dominique. Charlie Weasley is not known to have children. Teddy is the child of Nymphadora Tonks and Remus Lupin. You can find most of that info in the seventh book, 'Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows'.
4. Who of these characters is not burned off the Black family tree?

Answer: Nymphadora Tonks

Sirius was burned off after he ran away from the family house at the age of Sixteen. Andromeda was burned of after she married muggle born Ted Tonks. Because Andromeda was burned off it meant that her daughter Nymphadora Tonks was never on the tree. Alphard was burned off when he gave Sirius money after he ran away from home. You can find that out in the fifth book, 'Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix.
5. Which of these characters is NOT a parent of one of Harry's school friends?

Answer: Abraxas

Xenophilius Lovegood is Luna's father, Arthur Weasley is Ron's father, Frank Longbottom is Neville's father and Abraxas Malfoy is Draco's grandfather. Harry meets the Longbottoms in the St Mungo's permanent ward when visiting Mr Weasley who was suffering from a snake bite but was not in the permanent ward.

They also came across Gilderoy Lockhart, their former DADA professor who suffered a backfired memory charm in 'Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets'.
6. Which of these has never been a Hogwarts teacher or headmaster?

Answer: Dennis Bishop

Armando Dippet was headmaster of Hogwarts when Tom Riddle came to school. When Tom was still in the orphanage he took two kids into a cave where he was later to hide a horcrux. One of those two kids was Dennis Bishop, who was claimed to never be the same again. Phineas Nigellus was Sirius's great great grandfather. Remus Lupin taught Harry's DADA classes for one year.

He was a werewolf. You find out about the cave incident in the fifth book, 'Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix' when Harry goes through memories in Dumbledore's Pensieve.
7. Which horcrux, out of the many, did Harry, Hermione, or Ron destroy?

Answer: Hufflepuff's goblet

They destroyed the goblet, the diary, and the locket. Neville killed Nagini with Gryffindor's sword. Dumbledore got rid of Gaunt's ring and Crabbe fired the curse that destroyed the Diadem. A lot of Horcrux action happens in 'Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows' but Harry destroys the diary earlier, in 'Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets'.
8. I have matched up characters with their signature curses, hexes or jinxes. Which one is incorrect?

Answer: Draco Malfoy - Morsmordre

Lockhart did use memory charms before he backfired one on himself and ended up in St Mungo's in 'Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets'. Draco doesn't have a signature curse, but used Densaugeo on Hermione in 'Harry Potter and the Goblet Of Fire'.
9. What type of people cannot see Hogwarts?

Answer: Muggles

Every one can see Hogwarts except Muggles, who only see the ruins of an old castle. A squib is a person who is born from wizarding parents but has no wizarding abilities at all. The Hogwarts care-taker Argus Filch is a squib, as Harry finds out in 'Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets'.
10. Before the battle of Hogwarts, what spell is NOT fired to protect Hogwarts?

Answer: Muffliato

Protego Horribilus, Salvio Hexia, and Peirtotum Locomotor are all protective curses. Muffliato fills the ears of the people around you so that you can have private conversations. While camping out during Harry, Ron, and Hermione's hunt for horcruxes, Hermione Granger uses the Muffliato spell which Harry first finds in the Half-Blood Prince's (Severus Snape's) old potions book.
