Harry Potter

The protagonist of this book and the series is Harry Potter. While his sworn nemesis Voldemort prepares to wreak havoc on all non-pure-blooded wizards, he is a sixteen-year-old with a great deal of responsibility weighing on his shoulders. Harry must conquer the challenge of battling Voldemort and his Death Eaters with the assistance of his trusted guide Albus Dumbledore and his pals Ron and Hermione. In ‘Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince,’ Harry is also introduced to a textbook attributed to the ‘Half-Blood Prince,’ which earns him many accolades in Slughorn’s potions class. Also, Harry and Ginny Weasley end up getting together.

Hermione Granger

Hermione Granger is Ron and Harry’s closest friend. She ranks first in her class and is regarded by many as the most intelligent witch of her day. She is pretty resourceful and assists Harry and Ron with their studies and in escaping perilous circumstances. Like Harry and Ron, she is in her sixth year and a member of the Gryffindor house. She is also an esteemed member of the Slug Club, which Horace Slughorn created for a select group of pupils with whom he wishes to mingle.

In “Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince,” Ron is eventually selected for the Quidditch squad and performs admirably as the keeper. Early in the year, he begins seeing Lavender Brown but eventually falls in love with Hermione and breaks up with Lavender Brown to be with her. Ron is also mistakenly poisoned by a bottle of oak-aged mead intended as a gift for Dumbledore, but Harry saves him by placing a bezoar in his mouth.

Albus Dumbledore

Albus Dumbledore is the headmaster of Hogwarts and one of the greatest magicians ever. Many believe that Dumbledore is the only wizard that Voldemort truly fears, as he is the most formidable obstacle to his expanding authority.

However, on the top of the Astronomy Tower, Dumbledore is eventually assassinated by Severus Snape.
