Resumo de Lord Voldemort

You-Know-Who

Descendant of Salazar Slytherin, and son of a Muggle and a witch, You-Know-Who?s actual name is Tom Riddle. However, he has discarded that name and goes by the title of Lord Voldemort, a title which most wizards fear to call him by. To understand the reason of that fear we must look at his background life. At his birth, Riddle?s mother had died. His father has abandoned him after finding out that Tom?s mother was a witch, so Tom was raised in a Muggle orphanage. From there, he went into Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, where he acquired education regarding his magical ability under the headmaster, professor Dippet. From the start, it was clear that Riddle was no normal wizard. His brilliance, and magical skill distinguished him from other wizards, but it was particularly his thirst for Dark Arts that differentiated him from others. In his sixth year, Tom opened the Chamber of Secrets, and controlled a Basilisk though his extraordinary ability to speak to snakes. The Basilisk terrorized the school, until Hogwarts was on the edge of closing down. At that, Tom pinned the blame on Rubius Hagrid, and closed the CS again. Tom?s desire for evil doings is attributed to his inheritance of magical and characteristic values from Salazar Slytherin, one of the founders of Hogwarts, and it may come as no surprise that Riddle was in the house of Slytherin. While Tom was at Hogwarts, he breached limits to acquire knowledge about dark arts. After his seventh year Tom graduated from Hogwarts. After graduating, Tom traveled far and sank deeper into the forbidden territories of dark magic. He underwent many different magical transformations, so that when he resurfaced as Lord Voldemort, it was hard to recognize him, with his great powers Lord Voldemort organized a band of followers called Death Eaters. With their help, Voldemort began to terrorize the Wizard community by killing countless wizards and Muggles, destroying families, and throwing the Wizarding World into an era of Dark Age. People began to dread this powerful dark sorcerer so much that they could not even call him by his name, and referred to him as You-Know-Who or He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named. However Voldemort?s power was broken when he finally met his match in 1 year-old boy named Harry Potter. Voldemort arrived at the house of two powerful wizards, Lily and James Potter, and killed them. Then he turned onto their baby, Harry Potter, and used the curse that had killed many great wizards. For reasons unknown, the curse could not touch the boy and rebounded upon You-Know-Who. The Dark Lord should have been killed by the curse, but he was not. Instead of killing him, You-Know-Who reduced to a worthless, weak spirit, with no powers left horrified. The thing that was now You-Know-Who fled far a way, so far, that he did not resurfaced for 10 years. Harry Potter became famous and the Wizarding World emerged from the Dark Age.
The prophecy:
?The one with the power to vanquish the Dark Lord approaches? Born to those who have trice defied him, born as the seventh month dies? And the dark Lord will mark him as his equal, but he will have power the Dark Lord knows not? And either must die at the hand of the other for neither can live while the other survives? The one with the power to vanquish the Dark Lord will be born as the seventh month dies??
