The dark wizard "Voldemort" was born in Little Hangleton in 1927. His mother was a wizard named Merope. His mother was a descendant of Salazar Slytherin, and she fell in love with the Muggle Tom Riddle. Tom Riddle lives in a beautiful large house, which is located on a hillside, overlooking the village of Little Hangleton. Riddle House was originally the most spacious and imposing building for miles around. When Voldemort's mother told her husband that she was a witch, her husband abandoned her and returned to the home of his Muggle parents. (As Voldemort said, his father "didn't like magic.") Voldemort's mother died after giving birth to him (Voldemort), and she only had time to give him the name Tom Marvolo Riddle. After his mother died, he was sent to a Muggle orphanage, where he was raised.

In 1938, Tom Riddle started his study life at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. He was sorted into Slytherin House, but he had to return to the school he hated during the summer vacation. Muggle orphanage. He believed that he was "poor but talented, parentless but courageous, and the best model student in the school." There is a teacher here who doesn't like him as much as other teachers. He is the transfiguration teacher Dumbledore. Tom learns that his ancestor, Salazar Slytherin, built a Chamber of Secrets deep inside the Hogwarts castle that none of the other founders of the school knew about. According to legend, Slytherin sealed the Chamber of Secrets, and only his true heir could open the Chamber, release the horrors inside, and eliminate "anyone unworthy of learning magic" from the school. During this time, Tom, despising his father's "dirty, vulgar Muggle" name, began to adopt a new name, one known only to his closest friends at Hogwarts. He used a palindrome to create a new name for himself - the letters of Tom Marvolo Riddle were rearranged to form "I am Lord Voldemort". It was a name he aspired to one day have when he became "the greatest wizard in the world" and "wizards all over the world fear the mention of his name."

Tom Riddle spent five years uncovering all the information about the Chamber of Secrets—its entrance and the monsters that hid within. That monster is a basilisk. Tom could control it because he was a Parseltongue like Salazar Slytherin. After Tom releases the basilisk from the school, many students are attacked and injured, and one eventually dies. That student was Myrtle, and she was found dead in the girls' bathroom. On June 13, 1942, Tom staged a drama to capture Rubeus Hagrid, deceiving the principal Armando Dippet into believing that Hagrid was responsible for the attack by the giant spider Arago. Tom received an award for special contributions to the school, but he later discovered that this was a weapon used by Albus Dumbledore to "keep a close eye on" him. As long as Dumbledore is still at the school, it is not safe to open the Chamber of Secrets again. Tom preserved his thoughts in the pages of a journal, hoping that one day he could guide another person to continue in his footsteps and "complete Salazar Slytherin's noble work."

Little Hangleton Incident 1944-1945

1944-1945 was Tom's last school year at Hogwarts. He was a prefect and received the Order of Merlin. Albus Dumbledore later said, "Clever. Certainly, he was the brightest student I ever saw at Hogwarts." In the summer of 1945, after Tom left school, Tom Lee Del killed his Muggle father, whom he swore revenge on. Frank Bryce, the gardener at Riddle House, told police that he had seen a teenage boy he did not recognize on the day Riddle died. The boy had dark hair and a pale face. The next morning a maid found Tom Riddle's parents dead in their living room, "still wearing their dinner clothes." The Riddles were all cold, and everyone had a frightened expression, but there were no signs of injury. The Riddles are buried in the churchyard at Little Hangleton.

Transformation 1945-1970

After murdering his family, Tom disappeared for many years. During this period, he "traveled extensively and became deeply fascinated by black magic", "befriended some of the most evil" witches and wizards, and "suffered many dangerous magical transformations", and his purpose was to obtain immortality. strength. When Tom returns, he openly calls himself "Voldemort." He had been a popular boy at Hogwarts as a smart, handsome boy with extraordinary achievements; but few people thought so anymore.

The First Rise of Voldemort 1970-1981

Between the 1960s and 1981, Voldemort began to recruit followers: many witches and wizards joined his camp in order to obtain the power he bestowed. , more wizards joined because they were afraid of his revenge. "The era of Voldemort's reign was marked by destruction" and increasingly overt violence. Voldemort's followers were called "Death Eaters" and Voldemort regarded them as his "true family."

These Death Eaters used the three Unforgivable Curses arbitrarily on the witches and wizards who opposed them, and used the Imperius Curse to force them to carry out brutal killings. Many Muggles were "for fun" by these Death Eaters. Killed in name. Every Death Eater has a mark on their body - the Dark Mark, a skull with a large python emerging from the skull's mouth like a tongue. This mark is branded on their arms by the "Dark Lord". When they (Death Eaters) kill someone, the Death Eaters will launch this same mark into the air. This mark is made of countless green stars. It is composed of something that emits dazzling light in a cloud of green smoke. When people see these, they will have a sense of terror.

Voldemort used the hatred between wizards and giants as capital, causing many giants to defect to him. At the same time, they committed some of the most brutal massacres of Muggles. Everywhere was inundated with reports of deaths and disappearances, and people were tortured by an atmosphere of terror. Barty Crouch - Head of the Department of International Cooperation at the Ministry of Magic, who allows Aurors to use the Unforgivable Curse on suspects. For example, they have the power to kill, not just arrest. Some suspects were sent to the Dementors without trial. The only safe place during this period was Hogwarts, and there was much speculation that despite the Dark Lord calling Albus Dumbledore "the leader of the lowdowns, the protector of Mudbloods and Muggles", he was still afraid to face him. To Dumbledore, and knowing that Dumbledore had been fighting him so hard. Dumbledore organized the Order of the Phoenix at that time. This organization was composed of witches and wizards who resolutely fought against Voldemort and Death Eaters. They had a large number of members. However, the Death Eaters killed a large number of members of the Order of the Phoenix and organized the captured members of the Order into their own side. At this point, Voldemort appeared "more powerful than any living wizard" and had achieved his goal. Most people in the wizarding world avoid mentioning his name, and when they do, they call him You-Know-Who or He Who Must Not Be Named.

In 1979, when Voldemort was at the peak of his power, a prophet's prediction that Voldemort would eventually be killed by a boy reached his ears. Voldemort only knew some parts of this prophecy, that is, the person who was going to kill him would be born at the end of July. His parents had escaped from Voldemort's hands three times. Voldemort realized he had to find and kill the boy (Order of the Phoenix Chapter 37). Not long after, on July 31, Lily and James' son Harry Potter was born. Lily and James are members of the Order of the Phoenix and have escaped from Voldemort three times. The Dark Lord frantically searched for the boy to kill him, but Lily and James were well hidden, so Voldemort never found them. However, a spy close to the Potters betrayed them. On October 31, 1981, the Dark Lord came to Potter's home. He killed James Potter first, and then Lily was killed while trying to protect her son. Voldemort, the most powerful wizard in a hundred years, cast a spell on Harry Potter. The spell had killed many wizards, but the spell was rebounded on Voldemort, and his body was torn apart. His magic was gone, he was dying, and he ran away.

Voldemort believed that he had gone further than anyone else on the road to finding a way to live forever, and he found that at least one or two of his experiments worked. He was able to conquer death, he was not killed by rebound spells, but he had no body of his own, no magic power, because every spell that could help him required the use of a wand. He hid in the Albanian forests, far away from humans and Aurors, because he knew the Aurors were still looking for him. He uses what little power he has left to possess himself into other things, he possesses animals, snakes being his favorite. He waited, sleepless, forcing himself to live second by second, hoping that the loyal Death Eaters would try to find him and use magic to return him a body. But those Death Eaters who were not killed or sent to Azkaban denied that they had an affair with Voldemort, or that the mysterious man forced them to kill and torture others.

The second failure 1991-1992

In 1991, Professor Quirrell entered the forest where Voldemort had been hiding for 10 years, and soon surrendered to Voldemort. Voldemort observed that Quirrell was young, foolish, and gullible. “There are always people willing to let me into their soul.” Voldemort asked Quirrell to take him back home and devise a plan to use the Philosopher's Stone to create a human body for him and gain immortality. On July 31, Quirrell, under the guidance of Voldemort, fought with the goblin guards in Diagon Alley and tried to break into Gringotts, but found that Vault 713 (where the Philosopher's Stone was previously placed) was empty. The Philosopher's Stone in this vault was brought to Hogwarts by Rubeus Hagrid under the guidance of Albus Dumbledore. This time Voldemort found it necessary to share a body with Quirrell. He hid himself under Quirrell's hood, looking for an opportunity to retrieve the Philosopher's Stone, which was safely and securely protected by spells in a hidden part of Hogwarts. Quirrell drank the blood of a unicorn he killed in the Forbidden Forest in order to help strengthen Voldemort. One night they met Harry Potter in the Forbidden Forest. Harry followed the injured unicorn to find this place. Just as Quirrell rushed towards Harry, the centaur Firenze arrived and Quirrell Escaped quickly.

Quirrell and Voldemort tricked their way into passing the three-headed dog guarding the Philosopher's Stone, and passed the three magic levels to reach the Mirror of Erised, where they met Harry. Those three levels are also challenges faced by Harry, Ron and Hermione. The three of them always thought that Professor Severus Snape wanted to steal the Philosopher's Stone. Harry got the Philosopher's Stone from the magic mirror, but Quirrell couldn't snatch it from Harry's hand because once he touched Harry's skin, the pain was like burning. Harry and Quirrell stalled until Principal Dumbledore arrived, and finally Voldemort escaped regardless of Quirrell's death. Voldemort has always been "as kind to his followers as to his enemies." Once again, Voldemort was foiled by Harry.

Second Exile 1992-1994

Voldemort returned to the Romanian forests and began to spend his darkest period. He was as weak as before, and he could no longer hope that another stupid wizard would come to his doorstep, nor could he imagine that any Death Eater would care about his condition. Despite the hopelessness, he still waited for his chance. The diary that preserves his memories when he was 16 years old is in the hands of Lucius Malfoy. Lucius was a Death Eater. In August 1992, he took the opportunity when Ginny Weasley went to Flourish and Blotts to buy a book, and put his diary into the book Ginny bought. Ginny revealed her thoughts to the diary, and through conversations with Tom Riddle, Voldemort fed on her deepest fears and grew stronger. Soon he became more powerful than Ginny and You can start taking advantage of her. Using Ginny as his own spy at Hogwarts to open the Chamber of Secrets without her knowledge. Through Ginny, Tom met Harry and learned that Harry defeated Voldemort. Voldemort is Tom's "past, future and present". When Ginny becomes terrified and tries to get rid of Tom's diary, Tom is delighted to discover that Harry has the diary. Tom was able to lure Harry into the Chamber of Secrets to rescue Ginny, because Voldemort was already powerful enough to break away from the diary. At the same time, he wanted to know how Harry survived and defeated Voldemort as a baby. How could Harry "except Apart from a scar, he was almost unscathed, but Voldemort's power was completely destroyed." Tom is intrigued by the similarities between himself and Harry, and acknowledges that Lily's act of sacrifice created a powerful protective spell, but puts it down to "a complete fluke". Harry survived, and Voldemort wanted to gather his energy to fight Harry. With the help of Fawkes, the Sorting Hat, and the Sword of Gryffindor, Harry killed the basilisk, but when the snake died, its broken fangs pierced his arm, and Harry was injured. When Fawkes used tears to heal Harry's injury, Tom was very desperate. Harry used the broken fang to pierce the diary and defeated Voldemort. The giant fang pierced the diary and left a hole in it, and Tom Riddle's memory screamed and struggled into nothingness. Harry Potter - "a skinny boy with no special magical talent" - once again defeated Voldemort.

The return of Voldemort's servant

In the summer of 1994, Voldemort's minion Peter Pettigrew was forced to leave his hiding place. He had nowhere to go and went to Romania, where Voldemort had long been rumored to be hiding. Searching for Voldemort. But he wasn't the only one to go there alone, Peter was seen in a tavern by Bertha Jorkins, a witch from the Ministry of Magic, a potential misfortune for Peter and for Bertha Jorkins. It was a greater misfortune, but it was an unexpected surprise for Voldemort. Pettigrew subdued Bertha Jorkins and took her to Voldemort. Voldemort used a powerful forgetting spell on her and learned from her that the Triwizard Tournament would be held at Hogwarts this year. More importantly, the Death Eater Barty Crouch Jr. had been rescued from Azkaban by his father and controlled him with a Imperius Curse to prevent him from finding his "master". Barty Crouch Jr. is hiding in his father's home, hidden under an invisibility cloak. Although Peter was a "bad" wizard, who we know as Wormtail, he was able to carry out Voldemort's instructions and assisted Voldemort in obtaining a potion made of unicorn blood and snake venom to initially form his weak body. It gave Voldemort an almost human-like form, albeit one that looked hideous and hideous. By this time, he had the strength to travel and hatched a plan to restore his original strength and body through "an ancient dark magic", which required cunning tactics to remove Harry Potter's protection. .

The Return of Voldemort

Voldemort asked the reluctant Wormtail to take him first to Riddle House, where they met Frank Bryce and killed him, and then went Barty Crouch's home, where Barty Crouch Jr. is controlled by the Imperius Curse. Wormtail and Barty Crouch Jr. captured "Mad-Eye" Moody, a former Auror. They knew he was going to teach Defense Against the Dark Arts at Hogwarts, and they also controlled Moody with the Oblivion Curse. , allowing Barty Crouch Jr. to impersonate Moody at Hogwarts via the Polypotent. Barty Crouch Jr. entered Harry into the Triwizard Tournament and helped Harry win the Triwizard Cup. He made the trophy into a portkey and gave it to Harry and Cedric Diggory, the Triwizards. The cup led them to the churchyard of Little Hangleton and into the hands of Lord Voldemort.

Voldemort used his "ancient dark magic" - a potion that required the bones of his father, the flesh of his servants and the blood of his enemies to make Voldemort reborn again, "more powerful" than before. Although he can use the blood of any "enemy", he wants Harry Potter's more because Harry took away his powers 13 years ago. Voldemort believed that "the protection that his (Harry) mother left in him will also be in my blood." Voldemort's return summoned the Death Eaters, who once again united under the Dark Mark. Voldemort asked them why they had not reached out to help him for 13 years and said to them, "I will not forgive. I want you to pay off your debt for 13 years before I will forgive you." Voldemort then dueled Harry Potter and returned Harry's wand to him so that no one would question who was more powerful. But Harry fought and evaded Voldemort's spell. When the two wand brothers made of Fawkes' phoenix tail feathers were forced to "fight", a very rare phenomenon occurred. A flashback spell was created, and its replay spell effect forced the "shadows" of Cedric, Frank Bryce, Bertha Jorkins, James and Lily Potter from Voldemort's wand. come out. These "shades" whispered encouragement to Harry, which Voldemort could not hear and became visibly more and more frightened. He was surrounded by these victims. At a predetermined signal, the ghosts approached Voldemort, and Harry took the opportunity to disconnect the golden wire from Voldemort's wand. The ghosts surrounded Voldemort, preventing him from seeing Harry, and protecting Harry from escaping from him. Harry ran out of the cemetery, escaped from the Death Eaters and regained the Triwizard Cup (Portkey), and fled back to Hogwarts with Cedric's body. Although Voldemort had obtained most of the important things he wanted, a physical body and the Death Eaters returning to him, Harry Potter thwarted him once again.

After Rebirth

Voldemort had gained a reborn body, and he turned his attention to how to destroy Harry Potter - the one he now realized was a threat to his safety. The most terrifying threat to wizards. Voldemort turned his efforts to protecting a copy of the prophecy, which was locked away in the Chamber of Prophecies in the Department of Mysteries at the Ministry of Magic in London. Voldemort concentrated on thinking about how to get the prophecy ball so that his mind could be connected to Harry's mind through Harry's scar. Harry Potter always saw the door to the Department of Mysteries in his dreams, but he had never actually been there (Order of the Phoenix, Chapter 1).

Due to various reasons, Voldemort helped ten Death Eaters escape from Azkaban. This escape occurred in January 1996. One of the escaped wizards was Augustus Rookwood. He was Voldemort's spy in the Ministry of Magic during the First War. He told Voldemort that the prophecy record was released. Within the Hall of Prophecy and heavily protected by magic, only those involved in the prophecy can safely remove them from their resting place. Therefore, either Voldemort entered the Hall himself, or he tricked Harry Potter into doing it for him. In view of the visions that had occurred since December 1995 when Voldemort noticed Harry Potter's cursed scar, Voldemort decided to adopt the second approach, tricking Harry into fetching the prophecy record for him. In the first half of 1996, he deliberately added to Harry's dreams the illusion that he had entered the Department of Mysteries. In July, Voldemort successfully lured Harry into the Hall of Prophecy through a vision, suggesting to Harry that his godfather was being tortured by Death Eaters there.

During the ensuing battle between the Death Eaters and members of the Order of the Phoenix and Dumbledore's Army, the orb was destroyed. The only remaining records exist in the minds of Albus Dumbledore (who first heard the prophecy) and Harry. After the war Dumbledore revealed the secret of the prophecy. It is uncertain whether Voldemort was able to gain access to Harry's mind and learn the details of those prophecies, or whether he considered such an attempt worthwhile. The Death Eaters learned before the War at the Prophecy Hall that Harry did not know the details of the prophecy, and that at least one witness - Bellatrix Lestrange - survived and re-loyed her master.

At the end of July, after the war in the Department of Mysteries, the Minister of Magic publicly admitted in an interview with the Daily Prophet that Voldemort had returned. Afterwards, Voldemort no longer had to exercise caution to avoid revealing his whereabouts. Because this is a fact that everyone knows.

Due to the failure to obtain the Prophecy Ball in the battle of the Department of Mysteries, Voldemort was angry with Lucius Malfoy. In retaliation, he ordered Draco Malfoy to try to kill his great enemy Dumbledore. Voldemort also led the Death Eaters to instigate the Dementors, and actively united with other snobbery in the wizarding world in an attempt to duel with the forces of justice. Draco eventually managed to smuggle a small group of Death Eaters into Hogwarts, trapping a seriously injured Dumbledore. Although Draco didn't have the guts to kill, Snape killed Dumbledore.

Death again

After Dumbledore's death, Voldemort quickly conquered the wizarding world with black terror, and the Death Eaters took control of the Ministry of Magic. But without destroying Harry Potter, Voldemort's fundamental pain could not be relieved. He planned to capture Harry when he turned 17 and lost the protection of his mother's love, and used the information sent by Snape to arrange it. Raid plan. Unexpectedly, even though he switched to Lucius's wand, he was still defeated by Harry's wand in the battle with Harry.

Voldemort was puzzled by this. By torturing the captured Ollivander, he learned that Grigovitch once owned a wand with stronger magic power-the Elder Wand. Voldemort thought this was all he needed to defeat Harry. So he captured another wandmaker, Grigovitch, and learned through torture and interrogation that Grindelwald had stolen Grigovitch's Elder Wand. Because Dumbledore had defeated Grindelwald in a famous duel, Voldemort concluded that the Elder Wand should be in Dumbledore's tomb.

In the process of tracking the Elder Wand, the Death Eaters caught Harry several times and summoned Voldemort, but they failed and Harry escaped. Voldemort was very angry and punished some people for this. Death Eaters. Voldemort finally got the Elder Wand in Dumbledore's tomb, but was horrified to find that Harry, who was being hunted, was looking for his Horcrux. Especially after Harry found Gringa's Golden Cup Horcrux, Voldemort was greatly angered. angry. He quickly checked all the Horcrux storage locations and found that the rings and lockets were missing. He hurriedly strengthened the protection of Nagini (also a Horcrux) and realized that Harry would definitely go to Hogwart. Ci searches for his other Horcrux - the Golden Crown.

Voldemort led the Death Eaters to launch a large-scale attack on Hogwarts and asked Harry to fight with him alone. After learning that he was Voldemort's seventh Horcrux, Harry went to his death and was killed by Voldemort with the killing curse in the Forbidden Forest. Unexpectedly, Voldemort did not know that Harry was one of his Horcruxes, and his killing curse did not kill Harry himself, but the part of his soul that resided in Harry. Voldemort, who thought he had won, came to Hogwarts to show off his victory, and used the Sorting Hat to turn into a flame binding spell to punish Neville who resisted him. Unexpectedly, Neville pulled out Gryffindor's sword from the Sorting Hat and killed him. Nagini.

When Voldemort faced Harry again, he thought he was sure of victory. No one would sacrifice their lives to protect Harry, and possessing the Elder Wand seemed to ensure that he could defeat Harry in the duel. Before the duel, Harry told Voldemort that he was the true owner of the Elder Wand and used Draco's wand to disarm Voldemort, but the killing curse issued by Voldemort at the last moment rebounded and killed himself. All the Horcruxes were destroyed, and nothing could preserve Voldemort's soul. Voldemort was completely destroyed!
