Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. What are Grindylows known for doing?

Answer: They are known for confusing you in the water and making you lose sense of direction

Harry had to get past various Grindylows in the second task of the Triwizard tournament. They might seem friendly to you when you first encounter them, but then you realize you shouldn't have even spoken to them.

2. What are the three unforgivable curses?

Answer: Avada Kedavra, Imperio, Crucio

Avada Kedavra murders any living thing with a flick of a wand. Imperio, if it is cast upon you, will put you under under command of the caster. Crucio will torture you and cause pain like no other, and if you endure the spell long enough it will turn you mad.

3. What do Patronuses usually take the form of?

Answer: Animals

Harry's Patronus is a stag. In third year Professor Lupin taught him this spell with a Boggart, not a real live Dementor. Later on that night, Harry had to defend his god father from a hundred Dementors!

4. What is the first charm most students learn in their first year?

Answer: Wingardium Leviosa

Expelliarmus is a spell that expels the wand from your arm. Wingardium Leviosa is a spell that levitates things in the air. Imperio is an unforgivable curse that puts you under the caster's control.

5. How can you tell Professor Lupin is a werewolf?

Answer: He has to take Wolfsbane Potion every month

When Professor Snape handed out a werewolf essay, Hermione was the first to find out that Professor Lupin is a werewolf. (Which was the sly reason Professor Snape gave the essay.)

6. Which one is a true Hex/Jinx?

Answer: The Bat-Bogey Hex

In her sixth year, Professor Slughorn was very impressed by the way Ginny Weasley performed the Bat-Bogey Hex on her fellow student Zacharias Smith.

7. What does the Bat-Bogey Hex do?

Answer: It sprouts wings on your face

The Bat-Bogey Hex was very popular when Harry was at Hogwarts. It is called the Bat-Bogey Hex because the area where bat wings spring in your face is the nose area, and Bogeys is British for the mucus in your nose.

8. What was the first lesson we had in our D.A. meetings?

Answer: Expelliarmus

In Harry's fifth year at Hogwarts a mean witch from the ministry came and tried to change the way Hogwarts works; so Harry and his friends were forced to have their own defense class, taught by Harry. They called the club Dumbledore's Army because that is what the minister feared most.

9. What does Sectumsempra do?

Answer: It cuts you like an invisible sword

Harry Cast the spell on fellow student Draco Malfoy. He found it in his spell book that was scribbled into by a boy named "The Half-Blood Prince". This book was the Prince's about forty or fifty years ago.

10. Well, I see that you know all of those spells; do you remember who taught Harry to summon a Patronus?

Answer: Professer Lupin

Lupin was the only Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher that actually taught them something constructive. He taught Harry many of the spells in this quiz, and Harry passed them on to the members of Dumbledore's Army.
