Leander Prewett (b. 1874/1875) was a student at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in the late 19th century, where he was sorted into Gryffindor.[4][5]

Biography[]

He once nearly lost a thumb to a Chinese Chomping Cabbage, but it was reattached by Noreen Blainey.[6]

During the 1890–1891 school year, he duelled against Sebastian Sallow in Classroom 3C before Professor Dinah Hecat interrupted it.[7] Leander later boasted to the new fifth-year student that he would have won the duel had Hecat not intervened (though the student noted that Leander could have been incapacitated by a falling Hebridean Black skeleton).[6]

He later helped the student to handle Chinese Chomping Cabbages as requested by Professor Mirabel Garlick during an Herbology class,[6] and challenged them at the Summoner's Court.[8] He also was a member of the secret duelling club Crossed Wands organised by fellow Gryffindor student Lucan Brattleby.[5]

Personality and traits[]

Although sorted into a house renowned for its brave ideals, Leander used his bravado to mask his personal insecurities.[4] Zenobia Noke had a very low opinion of Leander, describing him as a bully and a "no-talent moonmind".[9]

Magical skills and abilities[]

Possessions[]

  • Owl: Leander used this owl to send letters, although he didn't write frequently and claimed that his owl must be 'getting cobwebs'.
  • Mimbulus mimbletonia: Leander took care of a Mimbulus Mibletonia in his spare time.
  • Star chart: Leander owned several star charts, but found it difficult to read them all since there was so little space in the Gryffindor common room.
