Why doesn't Voldemort just go ACCIO HARRY POTTER, amirite?

I don't think it works like that..plus the fact that hogwarts has so many protective spells that it wouldn't work anyways

True...

I don't think it works if you're trying to summon a living creature.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

You can because in the Order of the Pheonix, Harry summoned a frog in Charms class, but I don't think you can summon a human.

Accio only works on inanimate objects. This is seen in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows when "Accio Hedwig" and "Accio Hagrid" do not work.

Untrue. It is simply very difficult to summon something that is, say, falling at 45 mph toward the ground, whilst it also has three times the mass of a normal man.

Going along your line of logic, it is simply very difficult to summon something that is, say, hundreds to thousands of miles away, whilst you are almost completely unaware of its whereabouts.

the real question is, why didn't anybody just get themselves a gun?

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Because they weren't very bright. Personally I'd go with a sniper to take him out before he even sees me

but voldemort scorned muggles and their inventions... i dont think he'd ever sink to the level where he had to depend on muggles.

No I mean Harry, or anyone else to take out Voldemort. Could have ended it before Harry was even born

Technically it couldn't have all ended with a gun because of the horcruxes.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

Yeah... and the Horcruxes need something really powerful to be killed... I don't think a bullet will cut it.

Probably not.

When I was younger (like 4th grade) and I read the books I would wonder why they didn't send an owl to Voldemort and follow it, because owls seemed to be able to find anyone. :)

Because Pidgeottos would attack Hedwig.

who?

by Anonymous 13 years ago

It's a Pokemon. I hoped you would get the reference. :

you don't know what a pidgeotto is? ._.

I've never seen Pokemon :/

Seriously? Haven't even played the game? That's a first o-o

Nope. I actually didn't realize it was that popular. o_O

Why didn't Voldemort just give the fuck up and get on with his life. Damn stubborn wizards, you kill thousands but you give ONE kid a scar and you can't let it go, NOOO you HAVE to kill the kid.

Sometimes it's nice to see examples of how much people know about HP spells. :)

(YamiAmi) But when Harry was learning Accio in the 4th book, when he finally got it, he was able to summon Neville's toad. And in one book I remember that in Transfiguration, they were learnin Silencio, and when Harry's toad tried to run away he used Accio to get it back.

Because shit doesn't work that way.

Why doesn't Voldemort just push Harry into a lake? Or off a cliff? Or light the Dursleys house on fire like they did the Burrow? Or poison his food? He really made everything more difficult for himself.

by Anonymous 13 years ago

They definitely did not light the burrow on fire. That only happens in the movie. Go read the books.

I love the fact that 'IAmSecretlyVoldemort' agreed with this :)
