Who Is R. A. B. ?

But they never needed to go indepth with it. They didn't even need to mention a brother. Sirius could have gone, 'Yep, my dad was an arse and my mum hated my guts,' but instead they drag in a new character and go, 'Well look at that, killed by Voldie himself. Hmm, isn't that odd.'

Well i think it IS Regulus, and if you do too, then it isn't a very far leap that Harry is already in possession of the missing horcrux. It is probably somewhere in all that dark clutter at Grimmauld place, either in one of the curio cabinets, a hidden place or even in the possession of Kreacher, or Kreacher may have knowledge of it's wheareabouts even if he doesn't know what it is. We may have even been given a hint or clue to it's presence or location in OotP

but oh how wrong u are sirius does not say that regulus was killed by vody he says he was killed on voldys orders that he doubted whether or not he was ever important enough to be killed by voldy hiself perhaps u should reread that chapter

I generally *would* relent at this point, but since you seems to be such an avid discussionist- he says, and I quote, 'No, he was murdered by Voldemort. Or on Voldemort's orders, more likely.'
Technically speaking, he was killed by Voldemort.

I personally reckon R.A.B. could be.......Regalus Black!!!!!!!!!!!

And i reckon Harry is one of the Horcruxes cuz one of the Horcruxes is of Grffindor and Harry could be the heir of grffindor. In the end to totally kill Voldemort Harry will have to kill himself.

As much as I would wish that it was one of my parents who out-foxxed You Know Who, they would certainly not address him as "the Dark Lord." Only Death Eaters do that. (Recall that JKR has said that my niece Susan's grandparents - my parents - were killed by You Know Who, and his followers recently AK'd me in my home!

I bet it was Regulus Black. I never knew his middle name, but I wouldn't be surprised if he were named in part after his uncle Alphard (before Alphard was blasted off the tree).

I have absolutely no doubt that you are right! Regulus Black wasn't killed because he backed out; he turned on Voldemort! It wasn't cowardice, but courage! I thought they'd figure it out by the end.

I believe that is three characters. in the cave dumbledore says" the protection was...after all...well-designed. One alone could not have done it..."

so who were the three poeple brave enough to do it?

Holy Crap!!! There's a great chance you might be dead on!! When Voldemort failed to kill Harry, he put part of himself into Harry!! Soul, maybe? Prob'ly unintentional, but still... oh, geez...

I like the theory of one person better than this one. Anyone with a lot of willpower could down that potion.
