Tom Marvolo Riddle, which known as Lord Voldemort is the son of the wealthy Muggle Tom Marvolo Riddle Sr. and Merope Gaunt. He was an orphan and raised in the orphanage Muggles. When he attended Hogwarts, he became the best students, which a lot of students and professors liked him because of his personalities, however they did not realized that he was bad and so much into the dark arts magic whereby he wanted to be the greatest wizard.

When he learnt about the dark magic, Horcruxes which it has to be split the souls and put it into the other objects in order to make the wizard or witches to be immortal, he wanted to do it and he succeeded. Below is the list of Voldemort’s Horcruxes.
  • Tom Marvolo Diary
  •  Marvolo Gaunt’s Ring
  •   Helga Hufflepuff’s Cup
  •   Salazar Slytherin’s Locket
  •  Rowena Ravenclaw’s Diadem
  • Nagini
  • Harry Potter
However, the Horcrux that lived in Harry Potter’s body was an accident whereby Voldemort accidentally split his soul and lived in Harry’s body when he wanted to kill Harry but failed due to Lily’s protection on Harry. But he didn’t know it and killed Harry on the last novels, which actually he had killed himself instead.

Voldemort had his own loyal followers, which are The Death Eaters. The Death Eaters (The Knight of Walpurgis) was consisted of wizards and witches who are pure-blood and biased towards the Muggles and practiced the Dark Arts.

Although Voldemort had his own followers, Harry Potter also has his own allies. Do wait for my next post okay!

Nox.
