He who must not be named...


"Only I can live forever..."-Lord Voldemort

Tom Marvolo Riddle was once a gifted student at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, until he chose a path of immortality which in return required his soul to be strengthened through the act of murder.

With an obsession for blood purity, Voldemort proves his aim to remove the wizarding world of Muggle (non-magical) heritage and to conquer both societies, Muggle and wizarding, to achieve pure-blood dominance. Through his mother's family, he is the last descendant of wizard Salazar Slytherin, one of the four founders of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.

An interesting fact, according to an interview with Rowling, "Voldemort" is pronounced with a silent 't' at the end, as in the French word "mort", meaning "death"
