Lavender Brown - What happened?

Do we ever really find out what happens to Lavender? As far as I can tell, the last thing we hear about her is Greyback is over her body and one of The Treo screams "NO!" and stuns him off ( I don't have the book in front of me so I'm not sure which one it is). I think it said she was moving slightly but I'm not sure. Any thoughts? Even if we didn't officially find out, some of you might have a bit more insight on it. Thanks!

I think she's a Werewold now.

I really don't think she is of enough significance to mention what happened to her with everything else going on.

I think she was about to die, but they saved her. I'm not sure though.

I hope we get to find out eventually who died. There are many others I'm curious about...the Parvati twins, Dean Thomas, Seamus, Ernie, all of the D.A. I apologize if this is off topic but I don't want to ask in the regular forums being that it's about Deathly Hallows... Does anyone know if J.K. plans a chat or Q & A to answer some of these lingering questions?

I think she's a Werewold now.

Mmmm, I don't think so. Since Lupin was not transformed, the final battle could not have taken place during the full moon, therefore Greyback was not fully a Werewolf. Maybe, if Lavender survived, she was only heavily scarred and preferred rare meat like Bill Weasley.

I think JKR plans a kind of compendium book to ther series with all of the characers and majical terms, etc.

I'm glad someone brought this up. I have no idea what happen to her. Up till now, I thought she died.

I thought I saw a story on MuggleNet earlier today indicating that she was going to do a chat the end of the month, but now I don't see it. :shrug:

It looks like she will be writing an Encyclopedia however so we should get an answer about what happens to all the various characters with that.

Edit: Ah, here's the bit about the chat from the Bloomsbury official site:

JK ROWLING AND THE LIVE CHAT

Harry Potter fans will be invited to put their questions to JK Rowling in a web chat 2.00-3.00pm (BST) on Monday, 30th July. Questions may be submitted one week in advance or live on 30th July at www.bloomsbury.com.

Oh poor Lavender, so brave. Another example of a character that Harry, and as an extension we, did not see clearly till DH. I figure if she lived, she was like Bill.

Yeah she'll be like Bill except maybe even more scarred up. I hope she lived though.

When I read it the first time I thought she survived, but now I have read it again and I'm not that sure. I hope she survived, but I wouldn't be surprised if she indeed died.

Dont want to sound like a jerk but I didnt really care whether she died. She was always rather annoying to me. I assume she lived but then again apparently there were a lot of Deaths even on the Anti-Voldemort side.

Thank you SO much! Marking the date...can't wait to hear what she says...I know she's going to be bombarded!

I love her! Never has a book or series affected me like this! Sorry...off topic again.

Back on topic...I'm going to re-read it again (and again, and again, and again) but I think Lavender is alive. Maybe it's wishful thinking on my part. So many died.

'Facts' are as follows:

"Two bodies fell from the balcony overhead [...] Harry saw [Greyback] sink his teeth into one of the fallen." ... "Greyback was thrown backwards from the feebly stirring body of Lavender Brown." (p. 519)

I think it highly unlikely that she was killed.
However little her role in DH -I think- her being a DA member her death would have been mentioned. She might not even develop the "wolfish characteristics" for it might be that she was more harmed by the fall than Greyback. At least it looks as though Hermione was very quick in blasting Greyback off her.

This is something that has also confused me. I was hoping she survived, but she (and hte party she was dueling) fell off the balcony, and Greyback attacked her, Hermoine screams and Stuns him off. I'm not even sure if Hermoine zapped him as he was geting ready to bite her, or if he had already bitten her. It says she was moving around feebly, so she might have just been gravely injured, but unbitten.

How funny is it that Hermione is the one who saves Lavender from being slaughtered by Greyback? ;)

I hope she is okay though. It won't really matter, unless JKR decides to write something new.

I actually went back to re-read that section as I was wondering the same thing. As far as I can remember there was no detail on what happened before they got there, but It seemed to say something along the lines of...

2 body's hit the floor. then out of the corner of there eye a gray blur (Grayback) ran 'to sink its teeth into LB's lifeless body" but before he could he was stunned.

Grayback never actually reached LB. Having said that I do find it hard to believe that a warewolf could have been running around the whole battle without managing to turn at least one person.

Thanks for the quote!

And also, I wouldn't rule out her death being overlooked. Well not so much overlooked as just not written in the book, just because it was clear that there were so many deaths that occurred that night that it would be completely impossible for Rowling to list off all of the characters lying dead in the Great Hall. So while I kind of hope that she didn't die (I wouldn't wish death upon anyone except Voldy, who got what he deserved), I wouldn't rule it out either. I have a sneaking suspicion that JKR only put those deaths extremely significant to Harry in the book.

Good question. The book was so unclear on what actually happened. My sister and I were talking about it; she'd made the comment that it was so sad Lavender would be a werewolf now, and I said, no, Hermione made it there in time. So we looked up the passage and realized it doesn't say whether or not she was actually bitten.
It's hard to say whether or not Greyback was transformed, either... Remus could have died before moonrise, and so wouldn't have transformed, and the book isn't clear. Just says that it looked like a 'grey blur that Harry took for an animal, speeding four-legged', which could mean anything, given that greyback had started acting wolf-like even when he wasn't transformed. Only Jo could give a definite answer.
References, pg. 519, DH.

My impression was that she was one of the people who fell from the balcony. Greyback saw this, ran over to take advantage, and Hermione stopped him before he got there. So she was only injured from the fall (and maybe from whatever caused the fall in the first place).

And also, I wouldn't rule out her death being overlooked. [...] I have a sneaking suspicion that JKR only put those deaths extremely significant to Harry in the book.

I see your point, of course. But what with the final battle situation and all, I do think JKR would have mentioned her, if only in a sidenote.
To be quite frank- there aren't many characters that I care less for than Lavender, I just think it would have been mentioned. If only because she was in the DA. Colin was, too. Plus Lavender was a classmate of Harry's.

True, but Harry actually passed Collin being carried inside on his way to greet Voldemort, so that was sort of a special case. Most of the other dead people were already in the Great Hall and it wasn't as though Harry had time to peruse through everyone to see which of his classmates died.

I'd like to say that I don't honestly think that she died. I have a feeling that since she escaped that close encounter with death that it is unlikely for her to have died. But I just think it's important to remember that there are upwards of 50 people who died in battle, most of whom were unnamed. It's simply too many people to list off in the context of the book and the battle scene.

Hermione saved Lavender just in time. I hope Lavender is not a werewolf, I always found her rather funny in previous books for some odd reason. I still seriously doubt Lavender is a werewolf.

Hermione saved Lavender just in time. I hope Lavender is not a werewolf, I always found her rather funny in previous books for some odd reason. I still seriously doubt Lavender is a werewolf.Lavendar won't be a werewolf, because Greyback wasn't transformed when he bit her. She will, at most, be like Bill, with some scars and some "wolfish" characteristics, but she won't be a full lycanthrope.

I think it's interesting that so many characters are mentioned in passing in battle. It's quite frustrating actually.

I think the point of mentioning Lavender just was that she was there fighting for them and that she was in danger. It goes to show how serious it all was.

Maybe this is something that will be included in JKR's encyclopedia, the fate of Lavender Brown. I do believe that she lied but clearly, she was badly hurt and it is very likely that she was bit.

I also think she mentioned Lavendar because Hermione is the who who stunned him. It was like all kiddie stuff aside so what you were making out with Ron. You know? Kinda like at the end when Percy and Arthur were both battling the MOM after Fred died. It kinda represents that they are all on the same side regardless of petty issues in the past.

It kinda represents that they are all on the same side regardless of petty issues in the past.

I think that is a beautiful way of putting it... and it makes complete sense. :)

Does anyone know HOW Lavender fell of the balcony? Did Fenrir jump after her? Or was he already down there when she fell?

wow....I read the book so fast, I forgot about this.

here is the exact text in my book.

"two bodies fell from the balcony overhead as they reached the ground and a grey blur that harry took for an animal sped four-legged across the hall TO sink its teeth into one of the fallen.
NO! shrieked Hermione, and with a deafening blast from her wand Fenrir Greyback was thrown backwards from the feebly stirring body of Lavender Brown."

It states that Greyback was running along with the intent to bite LB but never says that he reached her, and implies that he was stopped before he could bite her.

the previous quote from the text that was posted on this thread is not what I have in my book. weather there are differences fromt he adult and children's addition or between US and UK editions im not sure.

to me is sounds as though he went to bite her, but didn't manage it. she fell from the balcony, surely she was hurt by that, not being bitten.

She wouldnt necessarily die from a bite like that, Greyback was not transformed, unless he bit her neck or she died from blood loss, which is unlikely I think. Lavender is also a Gryffindor, and they dont die that easily.

As she was the girlfriend of Ron for months in book 6 is a bit kind of a shame that we don't even know if she's dead, alive, werewolf, wounded or whatever.

And same for a lot of characters that we know nothing about. (members of DA..etc...)

The end of this book is really too short.......

Based on the information we've been given, I would surmise that she was not bitten (thaniks to Hermione), and has a 50/50 chance of surviving her injuries from the fall.

How funny is it that Hermione is the one who saves Lavender from being slaughtered by Greyback? ;)

I hope she is okay though. It won't really matter, unless JKR decides to write something new.



Yes i totally agree. It was quite fitting actually, Hermione saving her former rival in love lol....added a slightly extra punch to the story at that moment.

Honestly, i don't think that Hermione thought anything like "ho my, that's Lavander, the ex girlfriend of my man is in trouble, what a confusing dilemma...".

But more something like : "holly cr*p, that's the werewolf bast*rd who wanted to rape and eat me !! and he is about to kill someone, take that you scum !!!!!!!!!!" ^^

But more something like : "holly cr*p, that werewolf bast*rd who wanted to rape and eat me is about to kill someone, take that !!!!!!!!!!" ^^

I agree it wasn't about who she was saving it was just about stopping Greyback from hurting anyone else. In theory I think Hermione would have even done it for Pansy Parkinson even though she is a cow who doesn't deserve to be saved IMO. I mean look at how they saved Malfoy and Goyle and then Malfoy again. Surely neither of them deserved to be saved but that isn't who the trio is. Doing what is right is far more important to them.

But more something like : "holly cr*p, that's the werewolf bast*rd who wanted to rape and eat me !! and he is about to kill someone, take that you scum !!!!!!!!!!" ^^

OK, now THAT was funny:lol:, and i agree, If someone i knew for close to 7 years was about to be atacked by a blood thirsty werewolf, I doubt i would be thinking "but that person dated my love intrest, should i save them or not :hmm:"

Too bad Rowling did not give us some indications of Ron reactions to the vision of his previous girlfriend falling from a balcony and almost being eaten alive by a beast. (chocking sight for the least i dare presume)

Damn, the dude don't even stop for checking if the girl needs help or something.

Yeah, i know, Voldy, Harry...etc...nevertheless, i think that in this kind of situation you can help yourself and that you need to know. (if you have a hearth and a soul ^^)

I don't think she died, but I just don't think she was important to the story anymore, so she wasn't mentioned. I bet she survived but maybe just got hurt a little.

To me, it was great to see how many members of the DA actually came back to fight. Lavender would have survived, as Jo didn't say otherwise!

It said something about her feebly stirring body...what does that mean?!?

She was injured - either in the fall from the balcony, or the blast that made her fall in the first place (or both) - but was still alive, last we saw.

Keep your fingers crossed that she's still OK... I wouldn't be suprised if she was fatally bitten or injured.

I think Lavender was only written in as a snogging partner for good old Ron. As far as I can tell, she really didn't have much else to do in the books. Not that I wish her eaten by Greyback, but I wasn't exactly pining for her reappearance while I read DH...

I think she lived. I love how it was Hermione who saved her life, it was just another thing that showed how people put aside their differences and whatnot in times like these. Also, her taking part in the final battle shows that she was a Gryffindor, no matter how ditzy or girly she was presented as in HBP.

I don't think she's a werewolf or anything, but let's face it... does it really matter? It's much more important that JK closed up an important loose end than talking about Lavender.

I think this one is more open for interpretation, There are good fics out there where she got bit, hmmm... I think I like us being able to have our own ideas about what happened.

Like someone said earlier in this thread, I think she may have an affinity for rare red meat now. Therefore, not fully a werewolf, and not fully human either.

I think perhaps Lavender became somewhat like Bill. No a werewolf exactly but some one who looks slightly different with slight cravings for raw meat and stuff!

I would have sworn Greyback bit her while he was in wolf form, but Lupin was in human form for the final battle, so it must not have been the full moon. If Greyback bit her while he was still in human form, then I imagine her condition might be similar to Bill's (assuming she didn't bleed to death).

Does anyone have their copy of DH handy? How is Greyback described during the final battle?

I think she lived too, and I love how Hermione saves her. It just shows that Hermione is strong, and easily forgives others.

I LOVE how JKR has such deep characters, and sort of leaves the reader to decide for themselves some traits of the characters..

does that make sense??

Since I love Ron so much, I WISH Lavender had died, but also find it really great that Hermione saves her, because I love her second to Ron.

I think she survived, though a bit shaken and perhaps a little scarred. As others have said Hermione got to Greyback before he could hurt her, and then Trelawney dropped a crystal ball on his head:lol:. The book mentions her feebly stirring after the attack; so she was probably wounded from the fall.

Wow Lavender Brown with Werewolf attributes....That's so sad.. and tragic.:no: You know she's like the perfect girly girl who desire a bathroom in the ROR to 'wash up'. For her to be attacked by a werewolf is quite alarming you know? I wonder what really happened to her....I hope they talk about this in the next Pottercast Rowling interview.

I second that hope...

But I assume like everybody else in here that she survived and shares attributes as Bill does,end of story...

What do you think happens to Lavander Brown post Hogwarts?

I think Lavender was neither killed nor bitten by Greyback..... I like to think she survived with a few injuries and who knows...?? maybe she married Seamus Finnigan...?? :p

The end of this book is really too short.......

Agreed... The epilogue was near useless!:grumble:

Judging by the final death total for the defenders of around 50 it is likely that 2 thirds of the DA were among the dead along with half the teachers and half the Order. For example I wouldn't be surprised if the entire Griffindor Quidditch team minus wood & george from the old days were amongst the dead. There was unlikely to be much more than 100 human defenders in the initial battle vs a similar number of death eaters and imperiused death eaters. As the defenders were mainly kids who were not firing off killing spells you could expect that they suffered very heavily making up the majority of the 50 dead.

I think she's probably a bit of a Bill now. Because if she had died, I'm sure Harry would have seen her when he saw all the other dead bodies in the Great Hall. I'm sure Lav-Lav is alright. ;)

I agree that she's probably alot like Bill Weasley.

I think Lavender was neither killed nor bitten by Greyback..... I like to think she survived with a few injuries and who knows...?? maybe she married Seamus Finnigan...?? :p

Oh boy, I can see the fanfiction now...:lol:


Funnily enough, I actually think that's very likely.
Don't you think they'd make a good couple?

But didn't Hermione save her before he did anything to her? Wasn't he just ontop of her?

I don't think she's a werewolf, maybe she's hurt, but not a werewolf.

I agree that she's probably alot like Bill Weasley.


That is if she was bitten.... Hermione saved Lavender right?? She blasted off Greyback before he could get to her... Am I right?? :hmm:

That is if she was bitten.... Hermione saved Lavender right?? She blasted off Greyback before he could get to her... Am I right?? :hmm:

That was my impression. She was hurt by the blast that made her fall a distance, and of course by the fall itself. But I felt the point of it was that despite them being competitors for Ron, Hermione saved Lavender BEFORE Greyback could bite her, showing that the side of the good would put aside differences against Voldemort's selfish, evil forces.

That is if she was bitten.... Hermione saved Lavender right?? She blasted off Greyback before he could get to her... Am I right?? :hmm:

i swear it said that he sunk his teeth into her, then Hermione blasted him off but i maybe wrong

Here's what it says:

Two bodies fell from the balcony overhead as they reached the ground, and a gray blur that Harry took for an animal sped four-legged across the hall to sink its teeth into one of the fallen.
"NO!" shreiked Hermione, and with a deafening blast from her wand, Fenrir Greyback was thrown backward from the feebly stiring body of Lavender Brown.

Oh, so Fernir was turned into a werewolf (which is some sort of mistake, I think, since Remus wasn't transformed), but Lavender wasn't bitten. So the only reason she'd be hurt is from the fall, and maybe later injuries that happend in the battle.

Funnily enough, I actually think that's very likely.
Don't you think they'd make a good couple?

I think they'd make a good couple, though, I think, they'd probably spoil their kid(s); I don't know why I think that, they just seem like that type that would.

I think Lavender became Divination teacher at Hogwarts. She's almost computant at it.:p

Well, if she's a werewolf, she wouldn't be the divination instructor - not unless attitudes towards werewolves change drastically. :whistle:

But Lupin got to be the DADA teacher for a year, and its not like Dumbledore fired him, he quit because he did'nt want to hurt anybody. But then again, whoever the Headmadter is at Hogwarts next might not let her be the divination teacher, but they might.

She will probably be like Bill. Plus I think she kind of deserves it, for being too involved with Ron

I cannot agree that anyone deserves to be savaged by a werewolf simply because she had an adolescent relationship. I would blame Ron more for that relationship than Lavender, and I do not think it can be related, in any sense, to her attack by Greyback.

I think it can be argued that Greyback was simply running four-legged in human form (as he is wont to do as a werewolf, so he would replicate it here; possibly even to dodge the spells), but it could be argued just as easily (if not more so) the other way.

I think Lavender would resemble Bill. I am not convinced Greyback was transformed at the time, and I am certain she was bitten. Even if she is a true werewolf, I think she will lead an almost normal life, with werewolves being better accepted under Kingsley's Ministry.

She survived, I'm sure.:) I also don't think that she deserves to be a werewolf just because of her relationship with Ron. It was more Ron's fault than any...

I also think that she will be a werewolf, after what Greyback did to her.

Hold up! Here's what the book says:
Two bodies fell from the balcony overhead, as they reached the ground a gray blur that Harry took for an animal sped four-legged across the hall to sink its teeth into one of the fallen.
It doesn't even clearify that Lavender was going to be his victim.

Even if he did bite Lavender, that'd be no assurance of contamination. Quirrell did quiz students on cleaning warewolf bites, so I assume that can have an effect. Also, there wasn't a full moon. She'd only be slightly contaminated, like Bill.

edit: Oops. Someone else already brought that up.

I know this is a little off subject, but if you clean a werewolf bite, dose that mean that your not going to be a werewolf?

It was never stated that one can clean a werewolf bite. Here is the actual passage referred to:
The next morning in Defense Against the Dark Arts, while copying down different ways of treating werewolf bites...
However, this is treating werewolf bites, not curing them (as Madam Pomfrey says in HBP, curing werewolf bites is impossible). She did treat Bill's wounds with the green ointment, but it did not rid him of the contamination.
maybe she married Seamus Finnigan...??
I do not think she would marry Seamus. I imagine Seamus as a bachelor, and I think I would prefer not to have all the relationships we read of throughout the Potter series evolve into marriage: it is simply unrealistic.

Oh, so you can treat them, but you can't cure them? That makes me think even more that Lavender will be a werewolf. :agree:

I think she lived and married Seamus Finnegan and had cute little Irish children and all the girls have names after flowers. The boys just have Irish names. Hmmm...maybe she is part werewolf, though we never find out if she really got bitten.

I do not think she would marry Seamus. I imagine Seamus as a bachelor, and I think I would prefer not to have all the relationships we read of throughout the Potter series evolve into marriage: it is simply unrealistic.

Sorry, but I think Seamus is dead. I don't have any more proof on his fate than you do, BTW.

I think his death would have been mentioned in DH along with the others. It is also possible that he's a bachelor, however, since almost all the characters are getting hitched, it's probable that he tied the knot with someone as well, and Lavender seems to be a likely person.

I agree that Lavenders seems like a likely person for Seamus to end up with.

As much as I wish Lavender could be a werewolf(she'd make lycanthrophy cool to wizards everywhere!), Lupin was noted to be in human form during the Battle, so it's safe to assume Lavender is she survived the wounds, would not be a werewolf.

I'd like to think of Lavender and Dean, because he's an artist.

the way it was written, Greyback scampers across the hall to try & take
a bite out of Lavender. i got the impression that he is attacked before
he can hurt Lavender, so she survives.

i was impressed that she showed up to fight. she wasn't just Ron's ex-
girlfriend, she was also a loyal member of Dumbledore's Army.

i would like to hear how Luna ends up. She is a loyal friend. given the
amount of time she took to draw "friends" all over her ceiling, she has
earned her status as a main character, like Ginny & Neville.

I'm sorry if this has been discussed before.
Who do you think she ended up marrying with? I don't remember Rowling telling us.

Sorry, but I think Seamus is dead. I don't have any more proof on his fate than you do, BTW.
The last time Seamus was seen in the books was when Harry cast a shield charm to save him and Hannah Abbott from an Avada Kedarva. Considering we know Hannah lived to marry Neville and Harry also cast a shield charm to save Molly, I think it can be safely assumed Seamus survived. It would be pretty rotten luck to get saved from one Avada Kedarva until to die a minute later.

Luna married Rolf Scamander, grandson of Newt Scamander and they had twin sons: Lorcan and Lysander. But getting back on track...

I'm sorry if this has been discussed before.

If you had looked at the top of the page or at any other page in this topic, you would have seen many other people's opinions already stated on that matter.

I looked this up on the Harry Potter encyclopedia site . So it seems that she lived.

Brown, Lavender A Gryffindor in Harry's year. She's very keen on Divination and idolizes Sybill Trelawney, and is best friends with Parvati Patil. She once owned a rabbit called Binky, who was eaten by a fox [POA8]. She became a part of the DA during her fifth year [OOTP16], and was also the first girlfriend of Ron Weasley, who snogged her repeatedly in public with some gusto [HBP14]. She fought in the Battle of Hogwarts and was incapacitated. However, before Fenrir Greyback could attack her, he was defeated by the combined efforts of Hermione Granger and Professor Trelawney, and so it is likely that she made a full recovery [DH32].

This question has been bothering me for a while. I hate the little threads that JK just leaves dangling. But anyway, there are three possibilities:
1) She became a wherewolf, which would have been pretty interesting.
2.) She died, which would have been sad, I supposed.
3.) She lived and was just as annoying as ever. :p
