Harry's scar

Postby xtreme_matt32 » Tuesday 15 November 2005 1:39:02am

could harrys scar be a horcrux, because JK has identified the last word of book 7 as scar, maybe it vanishes when voldy is destroyed?

So Voldy's horcruxes burn when he's angry?

i don't think so
i think he'll have that scar forever
i prefer to think he (lv) brought something to the potters house when he tried to kill harry (i don't know what)

but that's just me

I agree..It must have been something he wanted to turn in a horcrux after killing Harry... What do you suppose it might be? And do you think it will still be there? I wonder if this has some importance to the plot. It could be that something related to Gryffendor. And Harry will find it when he will visit that place.

If Harry's scar indeed was a horcrux, it would have to be destroyed first before Voldy is killed.

Well there could be a spell on the house or something? So that people couldn't just steal everything that's in it...

If Harry's scar indeed was a horcrux, it would have to be destroyed first before Voldy is killed.


And that would condamn Harry to die before Voldemort unless he finds a way to get rid of the scar... But as far as I am concerned..This makes little sense...

Well it makes some sense to put a spell on the house. It's like a burglar alarm. Probably Harry has inhireted the house and since he's not that much around how can the house be protected? I would suppose it could be Dumbledore's work. And then thinking back on it...Weren't there supposed to have been some kind of investigation as there LV has died? I mean dissapear. Probably there are no clues left.

I doubt there'll be nothing left. What seems trivial to one pair of eyes can have immense significance to another. Besides which JK seems to write very little that doesn't have anything to do with the plot, except perhaps that gnomes look butt-ugly in a tutu.

I think Harry himself, not the scar, may be the final Horcrux. DD said he suspected, but wasn't sure, that Nagini may be a Horcrux, which tells us that a Horcrux can be a living being. DD has also said on previous occasions that when Vol tried to kill Harry, some of his traits were passed over, albeit accidentally. If there's a bit of Vol's soul in Harry it would explain why Harry is a parsletongue etc. Given that it was probably an accident, Vol may not know that Harry is a Horcrux, and so doesn't realise that killing him may not be in his best interests!

Now, if Harry is in fact a horcrux, it could make for a very dramatic and interesting ending... personally I've had bets since book 4 that Harry may well die! And if he is a horcrux, then he'll have to really. It would also kinda fit the prophecy in a round-about way. This would of course be ironic, because if Vol hadn't tried to kill Harry, then he wouldn't have accidentally become a horcrux, and we wouldn't have the 'neither can live while the other survives' issue. DD said after all that the prophecy is only true because Vol made it so.

I think that Harry being a horcrux makes no sense. Firstly because Lord Voldemort wouldn't have tried to kill Harry before. And he wouldn't try to make the profecy true (which includes killing Harry). He wouldn't try to kill him.

And before you say Harry became a Horcrux when AK failed and backfierd, I want to sa that if he had indeed been a horcrux, Voldemort would have known it. Just like that special bond LV made with Nagini after it bacame part of his soul.

But they do have a bond, something that neither of them understands. they get into each other's heads very easily. And on top of everything. LV doesn't know when his Horcruxes are in danger anymore. He didn't know about the locket or anything. In the end, Harry might be the accidental Horcrux

I think I'm slowly turning into a believer of the "Harry is a horcrux theory"... I don't even like it! I'm trying very hard to find reasons for it not to be so.

The only fault in it is that DD states that Voldemort hadn't made a 7th horcrux when he went ot Godric's Hollow that night. After he rose again he quickly killed and either:

a) Turned Nagini into a horcrux, or

b) Dumbledore is wrong, and LV already had a seventh horcrux: Harry, or something else entirely.

Either way I'm afraid he'll have proved that horcruxes can be living things... so I find myself saying why not?... to my utter dismay.
