As a child, I always saw Voldemort as this evil character who would stop at nothing to murder Harry simply because he was, in fact, quite bad. However, now that I'm grown up and reread the books, it turns out there's more to him than that after all.It all began with a prophecy. The prophecy said that a boy born at the end of July would be able to defeat Voldemort. There were two boys who fit this description - Harry Potter and Neville Longbottom. The reason why Voldemort chose to go after Harry lies in the fact that both are half-bloods.When he tried to kill Harry, Voldemort was actually stealing his own life force. Isn't that wicked?

The prophecy that set Voldemort on this whole plot. A prophecy was the reason behind it all--- that a child born on that night in late July to parents who had (plets of ink wasted on this) defied Voldemort three times should be born with the power to bring him down. Harry and Neville were both born at that time. The Dark Lord chose Harry for various reasons, such as his being a half-blood too like himself. He thus marked him as an equal. An attempt was made to kill Harry when he was only an infant, but instead there came out his accidental equal-Voldemort somehow transferred a piece of his own soul into him and this meant that on a level with You-Know-Who (whether Harry liked this or not) was now Harry's unintentional Horcrux.

Voldemort wanted to kill Harry Potter because of a prophecy he'd heard. The prophecy, made by Sybill Trelawney, foretold that a child born at the end of July, whose parents had defied Voldemort three times and lived, would pose a threat to Voldemort's power. Harry was one of two children who fitted the description, the other being Neville Longbottom. However, Voldemort marked Harry as his equal by choosing him as his target, hence sealing his own fate. His aim remained to kill Harry throughout the series as he saw him as a constant threat and obstacle to his ultimate purpose of achieving immortality and complete power.

In Harry Potter, Voldemort wants to kill Harry because of a prophecy. The prophecy suggests that 'The one with the power to vanquish the Dark Lord approaches... Born of those who thrice defied him, born as the seventh month dies.' Both Harry Potter and Neville Longbottom appeared to be possible candidates, but Voldemort picked Harry, binding him as an equal with himself. That left a deep connection between the two of them and now Harry was no longer a simple opponent for Voldemort.

He was not made for relationships, while I just got out of one and was not ready for another. But that one-night stand with the playboy Gamma of the Black Shadow Pack turned into two nights, and then three, until I could no longer count the number of times he knocked at my door whenever he wanted to get laid. And I just let him in. Every damn time. But then, the nights of passion turned into two stripes on the pregnancy stick. And he wanted nothing to do with it. I should have expected that. He was, after all, Austin Montrell. So I kicked him out of my apartment, out of my life, and out of my way. I vowed to forget him — raise my child on my own, and never look back. I was doing so well until the day I found my son missing and his scent lingering in the place where I left him. If the Gamma thought he could just abandon me and our child and then take us back because he changed his mind, well, he was in for the ride of his life because this time, I was not letting him back in. ***** THE ALPHA BLOOD CIRCLE: Book 1: She's The Luna I Want Book 2: The Beta and I Book 3: Let The Gamma Fall For Me Although this book can be read as a standalone, I highly recommend reading Book 1 and 2 to understand the characters and the world I created. ***** Follow me on my I G and F B for updates and teasers - author.cassa.m

why does voldemort want to kill harry potter

Voldemort's obsession with killing Harry Potter stems from a prophecy made before Harry's birth. The prophesy stated that a boy born at the end of July, to parents who had escaped Voldemort three times, would become a threat to the Dark Lord's power. Harry, born to James and Lily Potter, matched this description, as did Neville Longbottom. Yet, Voldemort chose Harry to be his rival, marking him as an equal. Interestingly, by attempting to kill Harry, he unknowingly ensured his own downfall because he inadvertently turned Harry into a Horcrux by leaving a piece of his soul in him. This act made Harry's survival imperative to Voldemort's destruction.

In the magical world of Harry Potter, James and Lily Potter found themselves on the hit list of the Dark Lord Voldemort due to a prophesy heard by him.

As a result, he sought to eliminate the entire Potter family to avert the prophecy.

Ah, now we're plunging into the deep heart of 'Harry Potter', aren't we? It's nothing too complicated, really. Voldemort, or 'He Who Must Not Be Named', killed Harry's parents, Lily and James Potter, because of a prophecy he heard. According to the prophecy, a boy born at the end of July, to parents who had defied Voldemort three times, could eventually bring about his downfall. This could refer to two boys: Neville Longbottom and our beloved Harry Potter. Sadly, Voldemort chose the latter because he identified more with Harry, who, like him, was a half-blood wizard. Now here's where it gets a bit emotional. When Voldemort arrived at the Potters' house in Godric’s Hollow, he intended to kill only Harry, not his parents. However, Lily and James, being absolutely wonderful parents, put up a fight. James unfortunately fell to Voldemort’s wand. When Lily was given the chance to step aside but refused to out of love for her son, she too, was killed. In doing so, she unwittingly cast an ancient protection spell on Harry through her sacrifice, granting him powerful protection against Voldemort’s curse. To sum it up, it was Voldemort’s fear, resulting from the prophecy, that led to the tragic murder of Lily and James Potter. It's bitter irony in its purest form. A prophecy hinting at his downfall drove him to actions that directly led to it - attempted murder of a baby who survived and returned to vanquish him. Oh, the cruel twist! But that's what makes 'Harry Potter' such a compelling saga, I suppose.

Actually, Harry didn't use a particular spell to kill Voldemort. It was the rebounding effect of the killing curse, 'Avada Kedavra', that Voldemort cast on Harry. Instead, Harry cast 'Expelliarmus', a disarming charm, which caused Voldemort's spell to backfire due to the Elder Wand's loyalty.

The ability to enjoy both infallibility and invulnerability required that there should be no hazards whatever. So he desperately yearned to hear the full chance, in case his own guess was wrong-and that Harry Potter represented a Chosen One destined to confront him. It is all about control, is it not? Understanding the prophecy would be one way for Voldemort—who liked nothing better than to have complete control over everything imaginable—to exert some control over its outworking.

Well, this part of the Potterverse gets really deep. Voldemort's killing of Snape was a matter of convoluted intricacies, rooted in his beliefs about the Elder Wand's allegiance. Voldemort believed in the 'wand ownership transfer through murder' theory. He was convinced that Snape, who had killed Albus Dumbledore, was the master of the Elder Wand. Consequently, he believed that to become the rightful owner and unlock the full power of the Elder Wand, he needed to kill Snape. Now here's where it gets darkly ironic. Voldemort, an epitome of cunning and power, was misled by his own theories. The Elder Wand's allegiance had already shifted to Harry, not through murder, but disarmament. Draco Malfoy, not Snape, was the one who'd disarmed Dumbledore prior to his death. Harry later disarmed Draco, making him unbeknownst the wand's genuine master. Yet, Voldemort's misinterpretation led to Snape's tragic end. Snape dies, in the end, revealing another truth to Harry through his memories—a truth about his undying love for Lily Potter. Snape's death, thus, turned out to be one of the most heartbreaking moments in the books. Through his death, a misunderstood character transformed into a tragic anti-hero, etching a permanent place in readers' hearts.

From a mature perspective, Lord Voldemort's ambition and hunger for power drove him to kill Harry's parents. You see, Voldemort caught wind of a prophecy that suggested a child would be born to oppose and possibly even defeat him. The prophecy, as interpreted by Voldemort, applied to Harry and another boy, Neville Longbottom. Deciding not to take any chances, Voldemort aimed to kill them both. However, when he arrived at the Potter's house, he found Lily and James Potter who bravely stood in his way to protect their son, Harry. In his merciless pursuit of power and fearing the prophecy, Voldemort killed them.
