Oliver's Wood

Product Information

In the fan fiction world, he is a widely popular character who is close with all his Gryffindor House team mates, especially Katie Bell. Though Oliver was not a member of Dumbledore's Army, having left Hogwarts two years before its formation, Wood fought with D. Yes, he makes brief appearances, but those don’t compare to his shining book scenes, especially considering how much his character was watered down for the big screen.

He would often be more concerned about his teammates than himself, like urging them to eat breakfast before a match, yet touching nothing himself. We see Oliver in passing in the campground before the Quidditch World Cup, where we learn that he is playing for the Puddlemere United Quidditch team.Harry assured him that Professor Lupin was teaching him to deal with Dementors, and that he had received a Firebolt broomstick for Christmas. or 1976) was a wizard who was the Keeper and Captain for the Gryffindor Quidditch team during his time as a student at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, which he attended from 1987 to 1994. I like to think this indicates he is Half-Blood, and it goes well with the actor’s decision to portray him as Scottish, given the origins of golf. Harry ends up catching the snitch before Malfoy, making Gryffindor win the Quidditch Cup for the first time in eight years. He helps Neville Longbottom carry dead bodies back into the Great Hall during the brief pause in the fighting.

When Harry regains consciousness, he is in the Hospital Wing; with the exception of Oliver, the entire Quidditch team is present.McGonagall claimed that it was a move that even Charlie Weasley couldn't have pulled off, convincing Oliver that Harry was indeed something special.

Following the defeat and death of Voldemort at the hands of Harry Potter at the end of the Battle, Wood survived the battle, as his name was not mentioned among the Fallen Fifty. During the match, Oliver told Harry to stop being a gentleman and knock Cho off her broom if he had to. Answer: It never specifies in the books what happened to Oliver after the final battle and defeat of Lord Voldemort but I like to think he never married and instead remained dedicated to his sports, so much so that he probably never went professional other than the reserve team, but found a way to continue his career writing content or serving as a manager or coach of some kind.

We don't hear Harry's reaction, but believe that Harry is unsurprised by Oliver's priorities, though almost certainly preferring McGonagall's.In the 1991–1992 school year, despite assembling a good team, he was unable to find anyone skilled enough to play as Seeker for the team after the departure of Charles Weasley in the previous year. Despite this, Wood was remarkably humble concerning his own skill, putting the team's success down to the other members of the team.
