some hp physical description details

elvendork:

harry:

  • harry’s scar is IN THE CENTER OF HIS FOREHEAD. it is not slightly to one side. it is not. it is in the middle of his forehead.
  • i dont know about later but in first year at least his hair usually covers his scar. before hogwarts, petunia tried to keep the scar as hidden as possible.
  • his glasses are round and “charcoal” colored. the first time they are mentioned to have been repaired is by arthur weasley at the beginning of the chamber of secrets, after harry has his floo mishap.
  • he has bright green, almond shaped eyes.
  • harry’s “i must not tell lies” scar is on the back of his right hand. if he makes a fist they show up white on his skin.
  • HIS SCAR IS A SCAR. SCARS ARE NOT BRIGHT RED!!!  and IDK MAYBE A CURSE SCAR IS DIFFERENT FROM MUGGLE SCARS??? but harry’s scar is. a scar. it is not a cut, as the movie people would have u believe.
  • he also has an oval shaped scar on his chest from the horcrux
  • his hair is JET BLACK and UNTIDY, always. his hair sticks up at the back. in DH his hair grows out past his shoulders.
  • in the book years his clothes are dudley or vernon hand-me-downs, or weasley sweaters, or hogwarts robes. or weird lumpy hats, scarves, and other knitted Creations made by hermione.

ron details:

  • ron is tall and gangly with a long nose. it is not described as thin or pointed or anything, just long. 
  • he has blue eyes and red hair and enough freckles to look like he has a skin condition. he has prominent ears.
  • after ootp ron has scars on his arms from his brain attack at the ministry. 
  • his clothes are almost all hand-me-downs from his elder brothers, and during his hogwarts years they are often several inches above his ankles. (hogwarts regulation robes are floor length)
  • ron is missing part of his upper arm from splinching in DH. it is described in the book as: “a great chunk of flesh was missing, scooped cleanly away as though by a knife.” hermione is able to close the wound and it is never specified if he scars from it (hermione uses dittany right away and according to snape in HBP the use of dittany immediately can prevent scarring)

hermione facts!

  • hermione has bushy brown hair and, until late in the fall of 1994 she has overlarge front teeth. 
  • her eyes are brown!
  • according to rons aunt muriel she has skinny ankles. 
  • the only description of her parents is that they look anxious and are muggles. there is no actual physical description. the only time we “see” her parents they are anxious and at gringotts and holding some muggle money, and then later they are more anxious after mr weasley gets into a brawl with lucius malfoy at the book store.
  • hermione does not suffer any visible injury from bellatrix torturing her in DH, contrary to the movie portrayal. she is threatened with a knife (by bellatrix) during the last moments at malfoy manor. she is also hit by the falling crystal chandelier, though she is unconscious at the time. 

all three of them suffer serious burns during their robbery of gringotts, and presumably multiple injuries during the battle of hogwarts. 

Useful Writing Websites

fictionwritingtips:

I compiled most of the writing websites I’ve mentioned on my blog into one post. I find a lot of these sites useful, so hopefully they can help you out!

Imagination Prompt Generator: This give you a one-sentence writing prompt that will help you come up with ideas. I think it also allows you to set a ten minute timer for each prompt.

Wridea: I really like this site because you can write down simple ideas that you can organize later and put into a bigger project. You can share these ideas or the site will help you randomly match ideas. It’s great for brainstorming and building a fully formed outline.

List of Unusual Words — Here’s a site you can browse through that gives you a list of unusual words for every letting in the alphabet. If you’re looking to switch up your vocab, or looking to develop a way a character speaks, this is a good reference.

Picometer — Here’s a writing progress meter that can be embedded on your site or blog. There’s also the Writertopia meter that shows word count/current mood. 

Cut Up Machine: This website takes whatever words you typed or pasted into the box and rearranges your sentences. It’s not practical for writing a novel, but it might help with poetry OR coming up with ideas. Experiment with it and see what you can come up with.

Orion’s Arm: This is a great website to use if you want to research worldbuilding or if you have science questions. There are tons of resources you can use.

Word Frequency Counter: If you’re finding that you’re using the same words over and over again, this website should help. You’ll be able to count the frequency usage of each word in your text. This should help you switch up the words you’re using and understand where the problem might be.

Phrase Frequency Counter: This is same site explained above, but it counts the phrases you’re using.

My Writing Nook: This allows you to write or jot down ideas wherever you are. You don’t need to have your laptop in order to access it, so it might help you during this time. You can write as long as you have your phone.

Writer: The Internet Typewriter – This site lets you write, save, share, and/or convert your writing online. I tried it out and it’s pretty cool. It saves for you and is a great way to brainstorm or plan out some ideas.

The Forge – The Forge is a fantasy, creature, spell, and location name generator. It’s awesome.

One Word: This site gives you one word to write about for 60 seconds. This should help you get started with your own writing and will work as a writing prompt to get you warmed up. It’s a great way to get yourself motivated.

Confusing Words:  On this site you can search through confusing words that often stump many writers. It’s not a huge reference, but it should help you with some writing/grammar issues.

Cliché Finder: This site allows you to enter parts of your writing and it will search for clichés. If you find that you’re using the same phrases over and over again, this will help a lot. I haven’t messed around with it too much, but it looks useful.

Hand Written Fonts: If you’re looking for great hand written fonts, this is a great reference. All of them are pretty awesome.

Tip of My Tongue — you know when you’re trying to think of a specific word, but you just can’t remember what it is? This site will help you narrow down your thoughts and find that word you’ve been looking for. It can be extremely frustrating when you have to stop writing because you get a stuck on a word, so this should help cut that down.
