July 18, 200916 yr Well, before I say this, I haven't read any of the books. When Dumbledore mentions the horcruxes, and there are 7 of them. Does this stand that there is 7 horcruxes per movie/book? It might be that I'm just overthinking it, but I;m still very curious. The Book/The Horcruxe Sorcerors Stone- The Stone Chamber of Secrets- Tom Riddle's Diary Prisoner of Azkaban- ? Goblet of Fire- The Trophy at the end of maze? Order of the Phoenix- The Glass Ball Half Blood Prince- The pocke[bleep]ch/thing with the note in it. (I dont know what to call it lol) Am I just overthinkingit, or could this be correct? If you have read all the books, be free to tell me. I don't care about spoilers :D http://i612.photobucket.com/albums/tt206/samtheninja/Tags/FEARLESStag.jpg http://i787.photobucket.com/albums/yy156/song4thedeaf/stuff.png what i'm doing now: https://linktr.ee/student1
July 18, 200916 yr Read them and find out! But the answer is no EDIT: And why is it called the Sorcerer's Stone in America, and not the Philosopher's Stone as it should be? :? Maxed 15/06/13
July 18, 200916 yr Either read the books and you will figure out or wait till the next movie. Also movies don't explain things well.
July 18, 200916 yr I'll tell you them. [hide=Spoilers]1) Riddle's Diary 2) His Snake 3) Slytherin's Locket/Amulet 4) Hufflepuff's cup 5) Ravenclaw's Diadem 6) The Ring belonging to his Uncle 7) Harry himself was a horcrux, part of Voldemort's Soul was attached to Harry's Soul when Voldemort tried to kill him, this was destroyed when harry "died".[/hide] EDIT: Oh, and the reasoning behind there being 7 of them is that 7 is believed to be the most powerful magic number.

July 18, 200916 yr Read them and find out! But the answer is no EDIT: And why is it called the Sorcerer's Stone in America, and not the Philosopher's Stone as it should be? :? Because a philosopher has nothing to do with magic?
July 18, 200916 yr They changed the name because they thought Americans would not want to read a book with Philosopher in the title. :lol:
July 19, 200916 yr They changed the name because they thought Americans would not want to read a book with Philosopher in the title. :lol: I know I wouldn't. :notalk:
July 19, 200916 yr They changed the name because they thought Americans would not want to read a book with Philosopher in the title. :lol: Hey :? We just don't use that word over here... [hide=SPOILERS - Voldemort's Horcruxes]There are actually 8. Voldemort intended to create 7, but in failing to kill Harry, part of his soul was transferred into him. The full list is... 1) Voldemort's body 2) Tom Riddle's Diary 3-5) The Representative Items that once belonged to Slytherin, Hufflepuff, and Ravenclaw 6) Nagina (is that right?) - Voldemort's pet snake 7) The Ring 8) Harry I suppose technically Voldemort isn't a Horcrux, but he there are 8 shards of his soul. Here is the wiki article, with all the information needed.[/hide]

Here is the wiki article, with all the information needed.[/hide] [hide=Spoilers]Sorry, but I want to correct you. He only made Horcruxes after significant kills, and a Horcrux is an item which contains part of your soul, so his body does not count. He believed Harry to be the next Dark Lord, the one who would defeat him, therefore, what better way to make your last (seventh) Horcrux, than by killing the one destined to kill you? Unfortunately, he only knew half of it, which lead to his downfall. Imagine a Horcrux as a way of storing part of your soul, incase you die, shard of the soul left in your body does therefore not count as a Horcrux.[/hide] Denizen of Darkness| PSN= sworddude198
July 24, 200916 yr Sworddude, sorry but I want to correct YOU lol... [hide=Spoiler - Quote from Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows]Dumbledore says: "You were the seventh Horcrux, Harry, the Horcrux he never meant to make. He had rendered his soul so unstable that it broke apart when he committed those acts of unspeakable evil, the murder of your parents, the attempted killing of a child."[/hide] Maxed 15/06/13
July 27, 200916 yr I think you should read all of the books, they're very good. To answer your question, no, in some books/years Horcruxes are never encountered, and in others multiple ones are found/destroyed. [hide=SPOILERS]Voldemort intended to split his soul into seven, which is to create six horcruxes. He wanted his own body-soul to be part of the seven parts. However, he accidentally made seven horcruxes when he met young Harry, which is to split his soul into eight. Does that make sense?[/hide] ~ W ~
July 27, 200916 yr Yeah, you should definitely consider reading the books. There's so much detail and so many really clever bits linking all seven books. They're magnificent and hugely entertaining. Maxed 15/06/13
July 27, 200916 yr They changed the name because they thought Americans would not want to read a book with Philosopher in the title. :lol: Hey :? We just don't use that word over here... You don't use the word philosophy? I don't believe that. Philosopher doesn't have the same connotations for Americans as it does for Brits. For those who don't know, philosopher has an old meaning referring to an alchemist. I think this meaning is less uncommon in Britain than in America, so it was changed for American readers to understand it better.

In America a philosopher is always a person that creates philosophies
July 28, 200916 yr I'm British and I didn't know it meant alchemist, I thought it was a philosophy-maker too D: Maxed 15/06/13
July 29, 200916 yr Sorcerer was a better name. [hide=]Consider he made some horcruxes before the time periods of books, they shouldn't relate to any of the books really.[/hide] I am Teh_King[My dA][My Last.FM][My Twitter]
August 9, 200916 yr Sorcerors Stone- The Stone Chamber of Secrets- Tom Riddle's Diary Prisoner of Azkaban- ? Goblet of Fire- The Trophy at the end of maze? Order of the Phoenix- The Glass Ball Half Blood Prince- The pocke[bleep]ch/thing with the note in it. (I dont know what to call it lol) HPwiki (not book order): 1. diary - 2nd 2. nagini the snake - 7th 3. Marvolo Gaunt's ring (resurrection stone) - 7th 4. locket - 6th book 5. The cup - 7th book 6. the diadem - 7th book 7. harry potter himself - 7th book When ever Harry "died", the horcrux was destroyed and now Voldemort was vulnerable. edit: the philosopher's stone is based on alchemy which was created by philosophers. The main difference between scientists and philosophers is that scientists do experiments, philosophers sit around like bums unless they have a real job :D. Since Alchemy was not a "real" science, it's most likely an insult lost in the midst of time. Alchemy "exists" today in the form of chemistry. No one turns lead into gold; they can with a particle/proton accelerator, but you spend more energy than it's worth.
August 10, 200916 yr Just a reminder, (you really should read the books) the locket recovered at the end of the Half-Blood Prince was a fake. Someone beat Harry and Dumbledore to the cavern and already stole the locket, with the intention of destroying it. SWAG Mayn U wanna be like me but U can't be me cuz U ain't got ma swagga on.
August 11, 200916 yr Ah [cabbage] [cabbage] [cabbage]! I read one of the spoilers and now I know what happens to harry in book 7 :x I was gonna save any surprises for the last movie. Eh, hopefully there is an epic showdown or something to make it worthwhile...
