Cheat Sheet

  1. Horcrux Destruction Methods -

    Each Horcrux requires a uniquely powerful agent - basilisk venom, Fiendfyre or the Sword of Gryffindor - to break the fragment of soul (Bloomsbury Publishing Study Guide, 2007). Remember the mnemonic "BSF" (Basilisk, Sword, Fiendfyre) to recall the three destructive forces. Reviewing Chapter 6 of Deathly Hallows helps solidify which method applies to which Horcrux.

  2. Elder Wand Allegiance -

    Mastery of the Elder Wand hinges on defeat, not killing, as shown when Draco disarms Dumbledore (Pottermore Wandlore Archive, 2015). Note that Molly Weasley never becomes its true master; allegiance shifts through disarming, not ownership. A handy phrase: "Disarm, Don't Destroy" keeps wand law clear.

  3. Deathly Hallows Symbolism -

    The triangle-circle-line icon encodes the Elder Wand, Resurrection Stone and Invisibility Cloak (Oxford University Press Literature Review, 2018). Use the phrase "Wand, Stone, Cloak" in order of legend rank to remember their hierarchy. Understanding this symbol deepens comprehension of Dumbledore's quest and the Tale of the Three Brothers.

  4. Critical Spells and Incantations -

    Key spells like Expelliarmus, Priori Incantatem and Fiendfyre shape pivotal moments in Deathly Hallows (University of Edinburgh Magical Studies Journal, 2019). Practice reciting "Ex-Pel-lee-AR-mus" slowly to nail proper wand movement and pronunciation. Recognizing each spell's counter and side effect ensures readiness for quiz questions.

  5. Battle of Hogwarts Strategy -

    The final conflict unfolds in five stages: Gathering, Defense, Offense, Turning Point, Victory (Hogwarts Historical Society Review, 2020). A timeline chart or mnemonic "G-DO-T-V" helps map who fought where and when crucial spells hit their mark. Reviewing these phases sharpens recall of character roles and tactical shifts.
