About this deal

As mentioned, Tonks was a Metamorphmagus, so her physical appearance could be changed at will (except when her heartbreak temporarily interfered with her abilities). She was pale with a heart-shaped face and dark eyes. She normally kept her hair short and spiky in a bright, bubblegum pink color. However, she also wore tomato red hair down to her waist, making her look like another member of the Weasley family, and on occasion in short, spiky purple hair or curly white-blond hair. Her natural hair color, however, was a mousy brown. The character has many interactions in the books, forming a great friendship with Harry Potter and his friends, but she has very little to do with Harry Potter in the films, rarely interacting with him. Nymphadora literally means "Gift of the Nymphs." Nymphs are nature spirits and minor deities in Greek mythology who rule trees, sacred groves, streams and the ocean, and are capable of changing their form, just like Tonks. During the Renaissance, northern Europeans equated the classical nymphs with their own legends of elves. If we therefore read "gift of the nymphs" as "gift of the elves", this echoes the ancient myth of babies stolen by elves and replaced by hideous monsters called "changelings". 'Nymph' is also the name of the "immature stage of a dragonfly or damselfly before it moults, before metamorphosing into a winged adult". All three meanings reference Tonks's metamorphosing skills. Duelling: As an official Dark Wizard catcher, Tonks's duelling talents were naturally considerable. She was capable of duelling Thorfinn Rowle to a stalemate, before forcing him to retreat, and survived her first two encounters with the most powerful lieutenant of Lord Voldemort, her aunt Bellatrix Lestrange. Indeed, during her second encounter with her aunt, Tonks was able to duel her to a stand still in a mid air battle between the two, and was capable of overcoming Bellatrix's husband Rodolphus Lestrange at the same time. Tonks was ultimately killed by Bellatrix during the Battle of Hogwarts, though it is unknown what the nature of this encounter was and her death may or may not have been the result of a duel between the two. In the books, Nymphadora's hair is described as "short and spiky", but in the films it is usually shoulder-length. It is also purple as opposed to pink as the film-makers had associated the colour pink with Professor Dolores Umbridge. It was portrayed as short and brown in the film adaptation of Half-Blood Prince however, as it had been in the book of the same name. It is possible she may be depressed over the death of her cousin Sirius and is having trouble with her morphing like in the book.

As Harry says to Fred and George at the end of Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, ‘we could all do with a few laughs’ ominously thinking about the dark times ahead. The introduction of Tonks, full of quips and one-liners, like a new embodiment of the Weasley twins, made us realise that even in the murkiest eras of the wizarding world, there would always be brightness along the way. Several people suspected that Molly hoped her son Bill Weasley would fall in love with Tonks, rather than marry Fleur Delacour. For her part, Molly reacted heatedly to disparaging remarks made by Fleur in regards to Tonks, which is indicative of the high opinion she held of Tonks.Tonks showed great potions skills in school and as an auror, being able to recognize poisons and antidotes. Herbology During the Battle of Hogwarts, they were very devastated to know that she was killed, and mourned on her body together with Remus's, Fred's and over fifty others.

While Andromeda only appears directly in one scene in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, we get a very clear idea of her character from just that snippet – and there is so much more that we can read between the lines. Ron was great... wonderful! Stunned one of the Death Eaters, straight to the head, and when you're aiming at a moving target from a flying broom..." —Tonks praising Ron's fighting abilities during the Battle of the Seven Potters [src] File:Weasley family studio 01.jpg It soon became clear that Voldemort had expected such a move, as at least thirty Death Eaters were waiting to engage them in battle. During the flight from Little Whinging, Tonks and Ron were chased by Bellatrix as they headed to Ron's Great-Aunt Muriel's home. Tonks and Bellatrix engaged in a mid-air duel, whilst Ron stunned one of her fellow Death Eaters straight to the head. Bellatrix seemed as determined to kill Tonks as she was to rid Voldemort of Harry, though Tonks ultimately escaped from her and gravely injured her husband, Rodolphus Lestrange. Divination: Tonks possessed considerable proficiency and knowledge in the field of Divination. She she earned either an "Exceeds Expectations" or "Outstanding" in the subject at O.W.L. level that allowed her to study it further at N.E.W.T. level. [19]Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery, Year 6, Chapter 40 ( A Witch Scorned) - Herbology Lesson "Mistletoe" In 1997, following the death of Albus Dumbledore and the scarring of Bill Weasley, Tonks openly declared her love for Remus, citing that Fleur Delacour still loved Bill despite the nature of his injuries and the possibility of werewolf contamination. Remus protested that the situations were not the same, but eventually relented and the two began a relationship [4].

I got top marks in Concealment and Disguise during Auror training without any study at all, it was great.” Tonks was enthusiastic, bubbly, and easily able to make friends with people she had just met. She was eager and would often want to help Molly Weasley in the preparation of dinner at Grimmauld Place. A Hufflepuff’s loyalty to the good side is demonstrated clearly in Tonks, and it is extended to people as well, particularly an unswerving loyalty to The Boy Who Lived. Remember that time the conductor of the Knight Bus almost gave away Harry’s location? ‘ If you shout his name I will curse you into oblivion,’ Tonks warned. You don’t mess with Tonks. Beyond Harry, it’s worth remembering that even after the death of her father and giving birth to her son Teddy, Tonks was still determined to fight at the Battle of Hogwarts. ‘Said Hufflepuff, ‘I’ll teach the lot,/ And treat them just the same.’ Several publicity photos show Tena wearing a blonde wig as Tonks, but she does not do so in any of her four film appearances to date.Studying for and taking her OWLs caused her to hunker down for the first time and try to figure out what she was going to once she left Hogwarts in two years time. The answer didn't come immediately and during her sixth year she signed up for a number of elective classes to try and figure out what she wanted to do. It turned out to be all in vain when, in fact, her interest in Defense Against the Dark Arts remained as true as it had ever been and she quietly slipped out of the other classes she'd signed up for (who really needed Care of Magical Creatures?) and concentrated on that. It paid off, and she did remarkably well in her DADA NEWTs, well enough in everything she needed to apply for auror training once she'd graduated. Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery, Year 6, Chapter 5 ( Wherefore Art Thou, Weasleys?) - History of Magic Lesson "Uprising of Elfric the Eager" Remus Lupin: " You'll be godfather?" Harry Potter : " M-me?" Remus Lupin: " You, yes of course — Dora quite agrees, no one better —" — Remus asking Harry to be godfather to his and Tonks's son [src] Her mother was a pureblood witch, and her father was not. When Voldemort secretly took control over the ministry of magic in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows , her father had to go on the run. While Harry, Hermione, and Ron were disguised, hunting Horcruxes, they ran into her father, but a few weeks later, they heard he had been killed over the radio. Weaknesses: Takes things much to hard, anything athletic other than running, restlessness, indecisive, and can't tell a pixie from a blast-ended skrewett (this is to say, she can't really identify one magical creature from another).

|Hogwarts students | Hogwarts Thestral herd | British Ministry of Magic | Giant colony ( Karkus's control)Amortentia Potion: That 'new car smell', freshly cut cedar wood, and the scent of the air before a storm. During the battle, Nymphadora was finally killed by her own aunt, Bellatrix, in the third of their duels, probably and partially because she had just recovered from childbirth. [52] Tonks's body was laid out, pale and peaceful looking, in the Great Hall next to her husband, [3] who had died at the hands of Dolohov. Her death was avenged by Molly when she in turn killed Bellatrix. Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery, Year 6, Chapter 2 ( Curses and Prophecies) - Divination Lesson "Tessomancy" At the end of the year, she earned ' Outstanding' or ' Exceeds Expectations' on at least five of her N.E.W.T.s, [28] (of which one was an 'Outstanding' in Transfiguration, and an 'Exceeds Expectations' in Charms [34]) thus qualifying for Auror training when she left school in 1991.
