Background

Harry lost his parents to Voldemort's curse as an infant and grew up with the Dursleys, who treated him as an unwanted burden. Sean regards Harry's lightning-shaped scar not as a mark of glory, but as evidence of an attempted murder and the life Harry never chose for himself 101.

The Dursleys imprison Harry after he uses magic at home, fitting bars over his window and a trapdoor over his bedroom door. Sean rescues him in cat form and takes him to the Leaky Cauldron on enchanted broomsticks 260. When Harry later confronts the family with Sean and Justin's support, he chooses not to expose their abuse despite having the opportunity 267.

Appearance

Harry is a thin boy with battered glasses and a lightning-shaped scar on his forehead 101.

• Wears glasses.
• Bears a lightning-shaped forehead scar.
• Is often recognized immediately by wizards because of his public reputation 7.

Personality

Harry is courageous and repeatedly chooses to face danger despite fear. He confronts Voldemort's schemes in his first year, enters the Chamber of Secrets to confront Tom Riddle, and continues playing Quidditch even when threatened 229 310 194.

He can also be impulsive and reckless, particularly when provoked or angered. His reaction to Sirius Black's supposed betrayal turns into a desire for revenge, though Sean supports him while urging him forward rather than leaving him alone with that grief 550.

Despite his resentment toward the Dursleys, Harry is capable of restraint and forgiveness. He ultimately refuses to expose them publicly, even after learning that his friends had prepared a way to do so 267.
