 Day 24




Xenophilius


Xenophilius "Xeno" Lovegood was a wizard who worked as the editor of The Quibbler magazine, the husband of Pandora, and the father of Luna Lovegood. His wife died when their only child was nine years old, and he raised his daughter by himself. He was likely the source of his daughter's eccentric beliefs, although he was often correct in his assumptions. He believed in the existence of the Deathly Hallows and supported Harry in The Quibbler when few others would.


Xenophilius and Luna lived in a house shaped like a rook chess piece near the village of Ottery St Catchpole and were friends with the Weasley family. In the summer of 1997, Xenophilius and Luna attended Bill Weasley and Fleur Delacour's wedding at The Burrow. Later in the year, Luna was kidnapped by Death Eaters. To save her, Xenophilius betrayed Harry Potter to Death Eaters. Harry, accompanied by Hermione Granger and Ron Weasley managed to escape. Lovegood was temporarily imprisoned in Azkaban by the Death Eaters.


After the Second Wizarding War, he left the prison and continued editing The Quibbler. When Luna married Rolf Scamander, Xenophilius had two grandsons, Lorcan and Lysander.

Day 1 - Arthur Weasley

  Day 1- Arthur Weasley  Arthur Weasley: The Muggle Enthusiast Arthur Weasley is a kind-hearted, well-meaning wizard, the father of seven children and husband to Molly Weasley. He is an employee of the Ministry of Magic, where he works in the Misuse of Muggle Artefacts Office. His most defining trait is his lifelong, passionate fascination with the non-magical world, or the "Muggle" world. Unlike many wizards who view Muggles and their inventions with contempt or ignorance, Arthur is genuinely curious and respectful of their ingenuity. His famous question, "Tell me, what exactly is the function of a rubber duck?" highlights his bewilderment and earnest desire to understand even the most simple, yet apparently functionless, Muggle items Prompt 24 Rounds on SOCK A Knit CHART on SOCK A.

Day 24 Mistletoe is an Ingredient in the Antidote to Most Poisons and the Forgetfulness Potion. Mistletoe is used as Christmas decoration and was part of the decorations in the Room of Requirement just before the Christmas holidays. Luna remarked that Nargles frequently infest mistletoe. Later, Harry and Cho Chang were alone under the mistletoe, and this time Harry brought up Nargles out of nervousness, but Cho laughed and they kissed.
