Facts About Neville Longbottom
Neville Longbottom is a pure-blood Gryffindor. His parents, Frank and Alice Longbottom, were prominent Aurors and Order of the Phoenix members until they were tortured into insanity (with the Cruciatus Curse) by a group of Death Eaters led by Bellatrix Lestrange. Neville was subsequently raised by his paternal grandmother.
Neville participates in the battle in the Department of Mysteries, in which he accidentally breaks the prophecy about Harry and Voldemort. Dumbledore, to whom it was originally made, explains that it concerned "the Chosen One", a wizard who would have the power to vanquish Voldemort and who would be born "as the seventh month dies" to "parents who have defied the Dark Lord thrice"; thus could refer to either Neville, who was born on 30 July 1980, or Harry, who was born a day later. This means that Neville could easily have had Harry's fate, had Voldemort chosen to target him instead of Harry..
With Hogwarts at the mercy of new headmaster Severus Snape and Death Eater siblings Alecto and Amycus Carrow, in Deathly Hallows, Neville reforms Dumbledore's Army with Ginny and Luna, and spends much of his seventh year as the group's leader, helping students who are tormented under the new regime. Neville's bravery is fully revealed here, as he not only tried to steal the sword of Gryffindor for Harry but also refused to obey the Carrows' cruel regime. Neville reveals to Harry that he had been subjected to the Cruciatus Curse by the Carrows as a result and was forced to go into hiding in the Room of Requirement to avoid Azkaban or death.
During the Battle of Hogwarts, Neville is immobilised by Voldemort's Full Body-Bind curse, after which the Sorting Hat is placed on his head and set on fire. Neville later breaks free of the curse, pulls Godric Gryffindor's sword from the Sorting Hat, and uses it to decapitate Nagini (on Harry's orders), thus destroying the final Horcrux.
After the second war, Neville joined Harry and Ron to train to be an auror. but beside the success in the new career, the constant work against dark wizards made him always felt that he would be more useful at Hogwarts than any place else in the wizard world. He retired at 2013, when professor Sprout asked him to replace her as Herbology teacher.
He married Hannah Abbott somewhere around the year of 2010, after dating for a really long time. They agreed not having kids due Neville’s dangerous work could put the their family in risk. However they are lately cogitating to adopt a child now that has been two years since he is took over the teaching position at Hogwarts and Hannah current retirement from Leaky Cauldron.
His biggest virtues as teacher is be compassionate over the students that have difficult in his subject while his biggest flaws are trying to befriend students, therefore hesitate to discipline them and taking so hard on himself for student’s failure.
He is in favor of the Hogwarts Rejects, because he believes that they are one of the most that suffered from the war.
Relationships
Minerva McGonagall - Minerva was overjoyed when Neville finally accepted the invitation to teach at Hogwarts. What nobody knows is that, with her retirement getting closer, she is really thinking into choose Neville to be her successor.
Hecate McLaggen - Neville doesn’t know what he did to annoy Hecate, but he certainly can see that she doesn’t like him at all. The former auror believes that her husband, Tiberius, may have said some nasty lie or some twisted rumor from Rita Skeeter.
Sheldon Cattermole - Niobe was the capitain of the dueling club when Sheldon first joined it. They became instant friends, even after she went to college, it was like they were never apart. He was her best man during the wedding. However Niobe feels that since her wedding, Sheldon is a bit distant from her, but might be just impression.
Emily Royer - For him, she is rather odd, since she doesn’t seem to be too much involved around the political subject. He likes her mostly because she seems different from previously potion teachers Hogwarts had. Also, he tends to enjoy that Emily has a a great knowledge of herbology.
Niobe Carter-Stretton - Niobe fought alongside Neville in battle of Hogwarts, and he was happy to see she was teaching there. She drops by his office once in a while to chit chat a little and makes happy to see the students has somebody to look it up to.
William Stretton - Neville doesn’t like him, since William was one of the older kids that bullied the former auror before the Battle of Hogwarts. He knows that people grow-up but dealing with the “Seer” in daily basis made him realize that’s not the other teacher’s case. What annoys Neville the most is that William tries to use his friendship with Niobe to promote the Singing Salamander choir, which is a waste of time for him.
Gaia Goshawk - He is still unsure what he did to Gaia, but this doesn’t stop Neville to admire her, since Goshawk was a bit of a legend in the auror’s office.
