Background[]

Personality[]

Often thought to be a girl with an odd personality, Luna is actually a very intelligent young woman. Most people thought that she was odd, and even called her "Looney Lovegood" and often stole her things. Luna was quite accepting, as she didn't care that people were mean to her and stole her things, being taught to accept people for who they are. She is very strange but has a lot of friends who were protective of Luna. Despite not minding what people think of her, Luna's friends were protective of her and got angered whenever they insulted her. This was shown when Ginny nearly jinxed students mocking her. Finally, Harry scolded Romillda Vane and her friends for insulting both Luna and Neville when he was hanging out with them.

She was also exceptionally brave in the final book of the series, admitting bravery during the battle of Hogwarts and showing strong loyalty towards Harry and her friends during the battle. She is very optimistic and very friendly to people, including Harry Potter, who is very good friends with her, as well as being very perceptive.

Physical Appearance[]

Luna is described as having long, straggly, dirty blonde hair. However, in the films, her hair is lighter. She was also tall and very beautiful passed how the way she dressed.

Luna also often wore jewelry and put her wand behind her left hair for safe-keeping.

Powers and Abilities[]

  • Defense Against the Dark Arts: Luna was taught more defensive spells against the Dark Arts (Dark Magic).
  • Charms: Luna was quite talented as a witch especially in charms.
    • Patronus Charm: Due to being a pure soul, Luna is able to cast a patronus in the shape of a hare at the age of fourteen.
  • Non-verbal magic: Luna can sometimes do non-verbal magic, able to stun Alecto Carrow during the Battle of Hogwarts.
  • Dueling - Luna proved to be efficient at dueling, mostly from emerging out of a fight with Bellatrix as a survivor with her friends and also only receiving minor wounds from the Battle at the Department of Mysteries. Luna, Hermione, and Ginny were able to even hold off Bellatrix Lestrange for a while.
  • Care of Magical Creatures: Luna became a famed magizoologist (someone who studies magical creatures).
  • Leadership skills: At the age of sixteen, Luna co-led Dumbledore's Army along with her friends, Ginny and Neville.
  • Study of Ancient Runes: In the July/August edition of The Quibbler in 1995, Luna was capable of reading that issue's segment written in Ancient Runes upside down, heavily implying she was able to understand and translate such Runes. This also implies that she may have studied the subject at Hogwarts.

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix[]

Luna first appears in the series when she meets Harry Potter, Neville Longbottom, Hermione Granger and Ron Weasley.

She expresses hope that there is pudding at the school-year opening feast and is seen enjoying some at Ravenclaw table.

Later, Harry approaches Luna as she feeds the Thestrals at the grounds. She and Harry can see them since both of them witnessed a death. Harry asks her what she saw, and Luna tells him she witnessed her mother's from Pandora's own spells. During their conversation, Luna believed in Harry's claims that Voldemort had returned. She also becomes a member of Dumbledore's Army, learning to defend herself against dark arts, taught by Harry.

Luna later accompanies her friends to the Department of Mysteries after Harry witnessed visions of his godfather tortured by Voldemort. During the battle, Sirius is killed by Bellatrix Lestrange.

At the end of the school year, Luna gives Harry her condolences at the loss of his godfather and found her shoes hanging from an archway in the hallway.
