(n.) Person, or rather, magical entity graced upon the earth to live amongst a wide population of muggles. Albuses are quite the rare creature and are arguably the nicest and friendliest people you will ever meet. To put it simply, they are "magical." They demonstrate magical prowess through amazing feats of illusion, both in the physical world and through online means. They are also enormously clever and hold an impressive array of puns available for any given moment. Emits an incredibly positive vibe and can easily restore one's faith in the greatness in humanity. Last seen spreading immense joy and displaying intellectual and magical might in Wayne Hall. *boom*

WARNING, SPOILERS:
Full name Albus Percival Wolfric Brian Dumbledore. Born around 1840-46, died 1997. Headmaster of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, in the novels by Jo Rowling. Named for the Latin for white, and an Anglo-Saxon term meaning "bumblebee", as Rowling imagined the old man humming about the school. Headed the Order of the Phoenix in both its incarnations. Campaigned for the truth about the evil Voldemort to be known, but was unimpressed by his power and pretensions; addressed Voldemort simply as "Tom" (Marvolo Riddle) whenever they met. Killed for reasons Harry Potter does not at first comprehend, but as for the question of whether we see him again, hey, this is Hogwarts, remember? Recently outed by author Rowling as gay (!!! go Jo !!!); his greatest mistake was to fall in love with Gellert Grindelwald. Wise old man who has come by his wisdom in that hallowed academy, the School of Hard Knocks. Warm, friendly, fierce when necessary, had style, truly unforgettable. Played in the movies by the late great Richard Harris (years 1&2), and subsequently by Michael Gambon. At once among the finest wizards and finest gay characters to grace the pages of fiction.

Albus Dumbledore. The only wizard Voldemort ever feared.
"Exactly", said Dumbledore, beaming once more. "Which makes you very different from Tom Riddle. It is our choices, Harry, that show what we truly are, far more than our abilities." - Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, page 245, Bloomsbury ed.
"You mean he was weak!", screamed Voldemort. "Too weak to dare, too weak to take what might have been his, what will be mine!"
"No, he was cleverer than you", said Harry, "a better wizard, a better man."
- Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, p. 592

Harry Potter and Ginny Weasly's child. A clever, yet strange mixture of the two great wizards Albus Dumbledore and Severus Snape.

HBP: Snape raiseh his wand and pointed it directlu at Dumbledore.
"Avada Kadavra!"
A jet of green light shot form the end of Snape's wad and hit Dumbledore squarely in the chest. Harry's scream of horror never left him; silent and unmoving, he was forced to watch as Dumbledore was blasted into the air. For a split second, he seemed to hang suspended beneath the shining skull, and then he fell slowly backward, like a great rag doll, over the battlements and out of sight.
Me: STFU, you can't fucking kill Albus Dumbledore, just like they couldn't kill Jesus, Gandalf, or Aslan, cuz they're all fucking God

I personally don't believe that Dumbledore is dead. I mean come on Fawkes only cried for like 1 day. He's still around, and just when you really think he is gone...There he'll be, saving the day.
You just watch...

A wonderful man. According to JKR, Dumbledore was gay. Grindelwald MAY have been his crush at a young age.
Dies in the sixth book.
Aids Harry on his quest to defeat the Dark Lord. Other than Harry, Dumbledore was the only wizard the Dark Lord feared.
Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore is his full name.
Dumbledore is BEAST
