Fonni  Sinder Sirius, Fred, Dumbledore, and if I had a fourth choice I would without a doubt choose Remus. Oh the responsibility of hypothetically saving fictional characters lives.

Layana Fred. Dobby. Hedwig.
I'd like Sirius to be alive too, but I think, he'd be much happier with his bestfriend James, and then Lupin too.
Fred has to be alive cause well, its supposed to be the TWINS! Not one! >.< And Dobby. Cause Dobby's got to get more socks on Christmas! Hedwig because she was his only connection to his real magical world, even when he was alone with the Dursleys. She was the most reliable =(
Snape and Dumbledore did their part (brilliantly), so I think they've already lived to their full extent =)

Sugar Remus.

Sophie Thomson I would save Fred. His death was COMPLETELY uncalled for. But i think Cedric Diggory deserves to be saved too.

Sherry Stevens Hedwig, Dobby, and Fred. Harry should have been able to hold on to one thing he loved. Dobby and Fred, the story could have gone on without them dying. I understand the premise behind their deaths, but if I had to choose, it would be them.
I get why Remus and Tonks had to die. It brings the story full circle. Teddy is Harry and Neville in one. Orphaned in a fight against Voldemort, to be raised by his grandmother, and now Harry is the Godfather. With Teddy, it will all be done right instead of terribly wrong like Harry's life.
As sad as I was for Sirius to go, would have liked Harry to have at least one parental type figure left, I agree Harry wouldn't have developed the way he needed to with him still alive. The rest were also necessary for his development as a character.

I agree with you, more or less. I wouldn't want to change them from the way they were written. They died how and when they died for their own individual reasons, and though each pulled on my heartstrings, that was the entire point.

Ann It seems like everyone has forgotton the most complex, humourous and bravest of all the charecters...Snape! In the end, he died saving everyone and lets face it, without his charecter, where would Harry be? Dead.
Not to mention the other two fantastic charecters that sadly got killed by the wands of Voldemort. Hedwig and Mad Eye Moody.
I for one was more sad that Hedwig (an owl!!)sacraficed his life then Dobby the annoying elf.

Hermione????? Hagrid????? They didn't die.


message 318: by Andrea (new) - rated it 5 stars

Andrea Escaffi As much as I love DD, I would save Sirius. He had had a rough life and I think he deserved (and Harry) to have a normal life. He could have been such a good uncle figure to Harry.
I wanted something happy to come out of Sirius' tragic life.


ForgeChivalry Targaryen Definately Fred, and Dobby... but I so want to bring back Lupin and Sirus and Tonks too!! and also Bellatrix, just because she is awesome :)

Daisy009 I would save Lily and James Potter because they are Harry's parents and Harry would not have to struggle with his Aunt, Uncle, and Cousin. I would also save Sirius Black because he was Harry's only family that was left that was nice to him. Also Hedwig and Fred because they were both nice . . . including Hedwig

Candice cedric, fred, tonks. Cedric was about the most innocent pure heart who died, Fred because oh god why did he die, and Tonks because Teddy needs at least one parent.

Megan Berryman I'd say Fred, Remus, and Tonks.

As much as I really want to say Snape, Dumbledore and Sirius, the truth is that they had to. The story would not have progressed the way it did with out those deaths.

But those three,they didn't HAVE to happen. They were there only to show the horrors of war, not to motivate Harry along his path.

I agree. I would save the characters that really would've made a difference (in a good way) and save their loved ones their despair.


message 339: by Houda (new) - added it

Houda Snape was meant to die, so was Dumbledore.
Fred's death was kind of useless, maybe if there was a little more elaboration around his character it would have mattered. I am not saying that Fred didn't matter, only that his death didn't bring anything to the story except more drama and sadness for Harry.
Dobby died a martyr, that part was so beautiful and touching despite the sadness, with Harry burying him without using magic.
I think I would save Hedwig, as her death symbolized not only the loss of innocence for Harry but also the end of an era.

Nicole Rivera Fred. His death was the most shocking to me.


message 341: by Ezgi (new) - rated it 4 stars

Ezgi Lupin or Snape, definately!
I would not save Sirius, to be honest. Because i don't understand the love for him and James. If i had people like that in my school/life, i'd probably hate them (or not like them at the very least...)


➳Halina➳ Bellatrix- the most awesome character of all time!


message 343: by Rula (new) - rated it 5 stars

Rula the first one would be Sirius because harry should have lived with him and so that they could be "a proper family."

the second one would have to be Snape and i don't know why i chose him maybe the reason why is because of his sarcastic dry humour.

i think the last one would be Fred because he's part of the Weasley family and he was so funny.


➳Halina➳ Yeah maybe I would save Sirius (But I still love Bellatrix) because Harry's family members keep dying, and, like, even in the wizarding world that's so coincidental that it's HIS family
