What is required to create a Horcrux?
A Horcrux is created by manually putting part of the soul into an object. Firstly, the soul must be split into two, where one part remains in the human body while the other is destined for the Horcrux. This splitting is accomplished by the “supreme act of evil,” murder, which “rips the soul apart.”
What are the 7 objects Voldemort?
Lord Voldemort’s had only seven Horcruxes:
- Tom Riddle’s diary.
- Marvolo Gaunt’s Ring.
- Salazar Slytherin’s Locket.
- Helga Hufflepuff’s Cup.
- Rowena Ravenclaw’s Diadem.
- Harry Potter (unknown to Voldemort until after he had “destroyed” him) -> Destroyed in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2.
- Nagini the Snake.
What Voldemort should have made into Horcruxes?
A single knut. Then have that knut pass from person to person into eternity. No one would have ever figured out which knut was a horcrux, even if they would have figured out a knut was a horcrux in the first place.
Are Horcruxes based on the ring?
The Ring/Horcrux = The Ring is nothing like the Horcrux. The Ring was always powerful, the Horcruxes only became so after Voldemort. The Dark Lord poured his hate and anger into the Ring, not his soul as it was in Harry Potter.
What is a Horcrux and how is it created?
The process of creating a horcrux involves the biggest crime against nature as well as other things – among those being one that remains a secret. A horcrux is an object that conceals a fragment of an individual’s soul, meaning that if the person dies, a part of their soul will still be alive.
How do you become immortal through Horcruxes?
Essentially, the individual would achieve immortality through this. Horcruxes can be anything, but inanimate objects work best as they’re harder to destroy; if a living being is turned into a horcrux, once it dies so does the fragment kept in it.
How many Horcruxes did Harry Potter create?
He created seven. Horcruxes are objects that hold a fragment of a Dark witch or wizard’s soul. Considered the most terrible of all dark magic, part of the requirements of creating a Horcrux is that it can only be made right after committing murder. This follows an unknown horrific act that only a few people know.
What happens to a Horcrux if the container is destroyed?
Where a person’s container, their body, could be destroyed without any damage to their soul, the fragment of soul contained inside a Horcrux was dependent on the container for its existence. If the container was destroyed, so too would be the fragment of soul within it.
