Portrait of Dame Galatea Merrythought in her youth

Dame Galatea Merrythought was a professor at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry from around 1895 until her retirement in 1945. From some point between the 1920s and the 1940s, she taught Defense Against the Dark Arts.

Among her pupils was a young Gryffindor named Albus Dumbledore; other students she taught included Elphias Doge, Aberforth Dumbledore, Muriel, Tessie, Gawain, Lancelot Prewett, Horace Slughorn, Omolade MacDougal, Augusta Longbottom, Odell Bulstrode, Neville Bulstrode I, Tom Riddle, Walburga Black, and Rubeus Hagrid. The Headmaster during her early years was Professor Phineas Nigellus Black, and later she also went on to work under Professor Armando Dippet.

During the First Wizarding War she became a secret ally of her former student Albus Dumbledore and his organization the Order of the Phoenix against another of her students Tom Riddle and his followers known as Death Eaters.

During the Second Wizarding War she allied herself with former students Augusta Longbottom ( née Bulstrode) and Omolade Bulstrode (née MacDougal). She mentored and trained Order of the Phoenix member Hestia Jones and members of the EoS (Embers of Salamander)

Galatea and Seraphina Bones portraits assisted Slytherin students in rebelling and expelling siblings Alecto and Amycus Carrow from the Slytherin dungeons.

After the Second Wizarding War her portrait replaced Elizabeth Burke’s as the guard to the Slytherin Dungeons.

Tom: What the-?

Hagrid: What the hell is that?

Professor Kettleburn: Ugh, my stupid hippogriff.

Hagrid, leaving excitedly: I've never seen a hippogriff!

Tom: Um, Professor, I don't know how to put this, but-

Hagrid: You guys, look at its little spots!

Tom: You know these are-

Hagrid: Look at its shiny beak!

Tom: Dangerous?
