Horcruxes. The remaining.

It's alright, you can call me "Your Lordship" or "Your Highness". :)

Anyway, what are the odds that one of the Horcruxes may be in Hogwarts itself, hidden away - not only does Harry get to destroy another Horcrux, but it's an excuse to see Hogwarts for at least a bit of the book.
 
Talking about Tom Riddle - if it's possible to make objects Horcruxes, might it be possible to make buildings Horcruxes? It could be hard - as a building is made from millions of individual objects, but why could Voldemort, say, stretch the fragment of his soul over something as big as a building, or rip it even further and put miniscule bits in each brick?

And surely he's killed more than seven times, in which case, his soul should be in more than seven pieces?
 
It states somewhere in the books that Tom only wanted to make horcruxes out of objects he prized -- items of value, so to speak. I doubt a house is of value, and he wouldn't have had time to make a horcrux out of Harry's parents' house...

As for killing seven times -- yes, he's probably killed more than that. But you've got to remember that each time it split his soul it would make him more inhuman (which, I belieeve, is not something he would have liked). Besides, seven, as it says somewhere in one of the books, is the most magically powerful number. Therefore, splitting his soul eight times would actually diminish the spell.

I think...
 
Well its not just everytime you kill the soul splits, that is the only way to split the soul by doing the most evil act possible (killing). But remeber the killing is accompanied by a spell of some sort which enables the fragmented soul to be placed within the charmed object.

It would be a good idea if the soul was able to be placed in a building......... ........looking at Voldemort's ego, he wanted something from all of the founders of hogwarts. What if he found a way (upon his return to seek the post at hogwarts) to place an enchantment on the building that the next time he killed someone the soul would be placed within the castle itself.

No one would even think to destroy hogwarts because it is the foundation of magical education in Europe and serves as an icon that has survived a thousand years of terror to whatever power that rised. So his soul would remain preserved as long as hogwarts was intact. But to destroy howarts on a whole would be pratically impossible.

Unless there is a selfdestruct button in the headmasters office....... LOL
 
Who knows Lenny, maybe the Cup that Hepzibah Smith had was made of Cabbage or had cabbage design LOL. I always also associated Hufflepuff with gardnering. It is now resolved Upright was right in thinking that the a horcrux was a cabbage.

Only in Britain - the implication are that both Beauxbatons and Durmstrang are also both in Europe. Notwithstanding that, it's an interesting idea which presumably comes down to a number of questions:
a) can the Horcrux charm be "set up" in readiness for the murder or does it have to follow the evil act
b) has Voldemort been back to Hogwarts with sufficient power/knowledge since learning how to create Horcruxes
c) has he killed anyone at Hogwarts under the conditions in (b)
 
Yeah i know, didn't want to get specific, besides i was complimenting Hogwarts being the Foundation of Magical Education. Although i don't know the existing dates of Beauxbatons and Durmstrang, Hogwarts has existed a thousand years. I love Hogwarts oh so much, wish that upon death i get to go to my fantasy land.

There might be. Funny if it was an EMP or something like that but magic.

a) Not that we know of and I dont imagine that you could. I would think you would need the thing with you. Be a bit hard if it was a building a long way away.
b)He was in P.S. when he was half Quirrel. So as Voirrel he might have been able to but I am not to sure about that.
c)If so then no. Dumby would have told Harry about it.

Back to my answer to 'a.' If that is the case then the thing that he was intending to use as a horcrux (if indead he was) with Harry's death it is most likely to be somewhere in Godric's Hollow...Unless someone picked it up for him.
 
the obvious horcruxes are:

the locket
the cup
nagini
voldy
diary
the ring

the final one i think is the wand on the purple pillow at ollimymans (dont remember the name, lol)... and its defo not harry cuz why would voldy be tryin to kill him then? oh i remember, voldy just loves killing own parts of his soul.

aaaannnd the chosen one is... neville. id hate it if it is, but i have a feeling it will be him.
 
Yes it has finally happened. Someone thinks along the same lines as me. Neville is the chosen one, not Harry. You see he has been in the background for so long its time for him to come forward.
 
Who knows manutd maybe Voldemort is really putting on a show, For persons to believe he wants to kill harry when he really is just faking. Come on lets be logical, Voldemort powers rival Dumbledore's (The Greatest Wizard alive) and it so happens that harry has managed to elude death by Voldemort's hands four times excluding the encounter at Godrics Hollow with just love the he was gifted with by his mother. We as readers have been "dieing" to see somethings spectacular from harry (we continue to wait). For all we know Voldemort might be sparing Harry's life because hes the Ultimate Horcrux. No one would think to kill harry as he is the only hope for destroying Voldemort.

The above aren't theories they are just mere suggestions of the twists and turns that we might encounter in Dallows.
 
I have a really weird theory - I think TOM RIDDLE is the one mentioned in the prophecy.....just a thought, i mean the line 'neither can live while the other survives' doesn't seem to fit harry, seeing as though Voldie's alive and harry seems to be surviving alright...i'd need the whole prophecy in front of me, but i've been thinking about it for a while, and it seems to fit...apart from the 'born as the seventh month dies' bit
it would be just like JKR to put something like that in, and we've always 'known' that Voldie would be killed by love, maybe Tom is voldie's spark of humanity and comes out at the very end (a bit likie at the end of Phantom of the Opera)

Anyway, that's getting off the point...including the ring, the diary, the locket, the cup, nagini, Ravenclaw's something, Gryffindor's something, and Voldie himself (considering 7 soul fragments) that makes 8....but seeing as though there is no mention of nagini before the 4th book, it could be assumed that nagini was made into a horcrux after the diary was destroyed. He would have found out about its desruction from Malfoy, no doubt
 
No Crazihors, Voldie would not make nagini a horcrux after the destruction of the diary because he believes that seven is the ultimate magical number and thus would be making eight fragments of his soul if nagini was made into a horcrux.

I don't agree with your "theory" , however, its a good one.

I can't remember where I read it, but JK's already denied this theory. Thank goodness! :D
 
NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!! I want Neville to be the Chosen One.

I also disagree with your theory Crazihors and have the same thing to say as HBP.
