B. (aprox)1840 D.(supposed)1997

Headmaster of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. (ya know...where Harry Potter goes)

Order of Merlin, First Class, and Grand Sorcerer; Founder and Secretkeeper of the Order of the Phoenix; Supreme Mugwump of the International Confederation of Wizards, and Chief Warlock of the Wizengamot.

One of the greatest headmasters Hogwarts has ever seen, and the only Wizard to strike fear into "he who must not be named"
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

"Albus Dumbledore is gay, say what!?!"

Full name: Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore

Fatherly figure and invaluable helper for Harry Potter in the Harry Potter series. Usually the one to give Harry the courage/resources he needs to accomplish whatever obstacles are put before him. Killed by Severus Snape in the sixth novel, but his death is questionable for several reasons:

1. He went FLYING off of the roof when hit by the curse. Everyone else simply dropped to the ground, dead before they even hit it.
2. What happened to his wand? In the song sung by a drunken Hagrid and Slughorn, it says, "They laid him to rest with his hat inside out and his wand snapped in two, which was sad." But there was no mention whatsoever of his wand after it rolled to the corner of the roof. Maybe he still needs it?
3. A phoenix. Why a phoenix? Why not an owl, the customary symbol of wisdom which is the very quintessence of our definition of Dumbledore? I believe that, like the phoenix with which he is so closely associated, Dumbledore will rise from the ashes...in one form or another.
Albus Dumbledore can't be dead, Harry still needs him.
