Gilderoy Lockhart

Major
First seen · Book 2 · Ch. 3

Gilderoy Lockhart is a vain and flamboyant wizard with golden wavy hair worn beneath a perfectly positioned turquoise hat with gold trimming set at a jaunty angle. His forget-me-not blue eyes match the vibrant robes of turquoise, aquamarine, jade green, deep plum or lurid pink that sweep around his frame. A constant wide smile reveals all of his large brilliantly white teeth even when he is not speaking, giving his handsome face a dazzling and confident expression that he shares with the many animated photographs of himself that line his walls.

Description

A male wizard with wavy golden hair, blue eyes, and large, gleaming white teeth. He wears flamboyant, carefully coordinated wizard’s robes and hats; his hair may be less sleek after a sleepless night. His expression can become weak and frightened, and after the Memory Charm backfires he appears placid and confused.
