~ Luna's unusual disposition. |
Luna Scamander (née Lovegood) (born on February 13, 1981) is one of the protagonists of the Harry Potter series. She's a witch and the daughter of Xenophilius Lovegood and his wife Pandora Lovegood. Her mother accidentally died while experimenting with spells when Luna was only 9 years old, and Luna was raised by her father, editor of the magazine The Quibbler, in a rook-like house around the village of Ottery St. Catchpole. Luna attended Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry from 1992 to 1999 and was sorted into Ravenclaw house. In her fourth year, Luna joined Dumbledore's Army, of which she became an important member.
She participated in the Battle of the Department of Mysteries in 1996 and the Battle of the Astronomy Tower in 1997, and co-led the reconstituted Dumbledore's Army when Hogwarts fell under the control of Lord Voldemort.
In the train, she discovered Harry Potter stranded in the train and a broken nose caused by Draco Malfoy, rescues him. When Draco taunted Harry's nose she realizes that it was Draco Malfoy who was responsible for that, and fixes his nose before informing what happened to Hermione Granger, Ron Weasley and Prof. Horace Slughorn.
Because of her father's political dissidence at the time, Luna was abducted by the Death Eaters to be held for ransom, and imprisoned in the dungeons of Malfoy Manor for months. She was freed by Dobby along with several other prisoners in the spring of 1998, and stayed at Shell Cottage until she returned to Hogwarts to participate in the final battle of the Second Wizarding War.
Years later, Luna became a wizarding naturalist and married a man named Rolf Scamander (the grandson of Newt Scamander), and together had two sons; Lorcan and Lysander.
She was portrayed by Evanna Lynch.
