Vem i Potterverse lyckas göra magi bara ganska sent i livet?

17

Q: Will there be, or have there been, any “late blooming” students in the school who come into their magic potential as adults, rather than as children? By the way, I loved meeting you, and hearing you speak, when you came to Anderson's in Naperville. I can hardly wait until you tour again.

JKR: Ahhh! I loved the event at Anderson’s. It was one of my favorites. That is completely true. No, is the answer. In my books, magic almost always shows itself in a person before age 11; however, there is a character who does manage in desperate circumstances to do magic quite late in life, but that is very rare in the world I am writing about.

Vem hänvisade JKR till i "det finns ett tecken"?

Det är klart att det inte är en student; så det mest uppenbara gissningen om "Neville Longbottom" är fel - både på grund av "nej" svar på själva frågan och det faktum att Neville blomstrade i sitt 6: e / 7: e år, långt innan du rättvist kan säga "ganska sent i livet" .

Per Slytherincess 'kommentar, hade JK Rowling tänkt att presentera en muggle / squib karaktär i den senaste romanen som på något sätt skulle lära sig att göra magi men då helt enkelt bestämt för att ta historien i en annan riktning och aldrig skrev om den här personen (t.ex. efter att hon hade gett intervjun ovan);

Interviewer: You promised that someone will do magic late in life in book 7. I’ve now read it three times but can't work out who it might have been! Please help!!

J.K. Rowling: I’m sorry about this, but I changed my mind! My very earliest plan for the story involved somebody managing to get to Hogwarts when they had never done magic before, but I had changed my mind by the time I’d written the third book.
