Deathly Hallows are featured in the seventh installment of the Harry Potter book series by JK Rowling. They are a trio of objects fabled to have been made by Death. Anyone who possess all three hallows is supposed to become the "Master of Death."
The Hallows are:
The Elder Wand: The most powerful wand in the world, nearly unbeatable. The Elder Wand will only be truly powerful if its current owner took it themselves, by force, from the previous owner. Contrary to popular belief, you do not have to kill the previous owner to win the wand's allegiance.
The Invisibility Cloak: This hallow has been duplicated and many cloaks now exist, but this one is special. It renders the wearer completely invisible. It is not hampered by spells and will never wear out over time. It also offers protection, which no other invisibility cloaks do.
The Resurrection Stone: A stone that will call the dead back into the world of the living. But they will not be truly like they were, they still belong to the world from which they came. Most who call them back are unsatisfied.
The symbol of the Deathly Hallows is a circle (symbolizing the stone), sliced down the middle with a line (symbolizing the wand), and surrounded by a triangle (symbolizing the cloak).
Harry Potter is the only one who is able to unite the hallows because he is the only one worthy. But he drops the stone, and puts away the wand, never to use them again.

Get the halloween mug.The 6th installment of the Halo series and the 3rd in 343 industries' new Halo trilogy. This game has probably not been worked on, has not really been announced, and is not coming out for at least 3 years (though this is not likely because there are usually 3 years before each new Halo game and Halo 4 isn't even being released this year).
Guy 1- Halo 6? Sounds kinda crazy, don't you think?
Guy 2- Meh. But when you think about it, you gotta wonder what they are gonna do for each new one.

Get the Halo 6 mug.A phenomenon that occurs when a piece of media (mostly video games) is put on hiatus or when there is a very large gap inbetween releases, where people will overhype and praise the content to the high heavens, even before release. It then either doesn't get released or does get released, causing everyone to be disappointed because their soaring expectations weren't met, that weren't very realistic in the first place.
This isn't the doings of the developers, this is the doing of the community who in an attempt to keep their hopes up, make excuses about their favorite piece of media being or soon becoming the greatest piece of entertainement ever, e.g. Half Life 3. Aforementioned hopes are then usually crushed and they go to metacritic to rate the item a flat 1 or 2.
