Slughorn attended Aragog 's funeral and comforted Hagrid, and while this was mostly because he wanted to extract some of Aragog's valuable venom, Hagrid was touched nonetheless, and the two enjoyed a drunken salute to the late Acromantula.
Hagrid initially held Quirinus Quirrell in high regard, considering him a very talented and clever wizard, and initially seemed to have a good relationship with him, especially when he introduced Quirrell to Harry in the Leaky Cauldron. However, due to his loyalty to Voldemort, a disguised Quirrell later took advantage of Hagrid's love for magical creatures and manipulated a drunken Hagrid into revealing the secret of getting past Fluffy in exchange for a dragon egg.
Hagrid was later horrified and guilt-ridden when he learnt of Quirrell's true nature after his death, calling him an "evil git" and blaming himself for Harry's injuries during his encounter with Quirrell and Voldemort.
Hagrid had a mixed relationship with Wilhelmina Grubbly-Plank as while she worked as a substitute for Hagrid in Care for Magical Creatures and his gamekeeping duties when Hagrid was absent or had a mission to do, he slightly envied her teaching skills, which made other students including Harry, Ron and Hermione consider her a superior teacher to him for Care of Magical Creatures.
This also made him accept Harry, Ron and Hermione's untrue claims of Grubby-Plank being a "terrible teacher" when they attempted to reassure him that they still cared for him despite not taking the subject for their sixth year.
Grubbly-Plank on the other hand seemed to respect Hagrid for his skills and abilities despite the students considering her a better teacher than him, as she complimented Hagrid's training of the school's Thestrals and also kept silent about his mission to recruit the giants when Harry inquired her about his whereabouts, understanding the importance of his classified mission.
Hagrid disliked Gilderoy Lockhart , as did the other teachers, due to him being an annoyingly obnoxious and an incompetent teacher. Hagrid did not read any of Lockhart's books, rejected his ideas of Harry trying to hog the spotlight, and openly criticised him, something that he would normally not do to a teacher.
The professor with whom Hagrid had the most difficult and antagonistic relationship was, by far, Dolores Umbridge , who was a pure-blood supremacist with a particular dislike for what she called " half-breeds. When a student released two nifflers in her office, following Headmaster Dumbledore's departure from the school, she blamed Hagrid, although he had a rock solid alibi.
She later brought Ministry officials to Hagrid's Hut in the middle of the night, either to arrest or forcibly remove him from the premises, though Hagrid was able to resist with the help of Minerva McGonagall and go on the run.
Hagrid was disgusted by Umbridge's and the officials attack on McGonagall, attacking the Ministry officials in retaliation, although he refrained from attacking Umbridge in order to escape from Hogwarts.
Following the Skirmish in the Forbidden Forest , Umbridge was eventually suspended from Hogwarts in and Hagrid was reinstated as a teacher. She was also imprisoned in Azkaban two years later for her crimes against Muggle-Borns because of her actions as Head of the Muggle-Born Registration Commission. Apart from Harry, Ron and Hermione and the other Weasley children excluding Percy , Hagrid seemed to have a good relationship with Lee Jordan who was a friend of Fred and George Weasley as he once shook Hagrid's hand, along with Fred and George, when he returned after his mission to find the giants.
Apart from them, the other students had a mixed relationship with Hagrid which was especially evident while he taught Care of Magical Creatures. Although many of the students had a relatively civil relationship with Hagrid outside his teaching, most of them considered Professor Grubbly-Plank a more qualified teacher for the subject since Hagrid sometimes lost his confidence and preferred teaching dangerous creatures. Luna Lovegood believed that Hagrid was a poor teacher and said that Ravenclaw students considered him a joke.
However, while the other students mostly disapproved his teaching methods, Hagrid had an antagonistic relationship with the Slytherin students as they, encouraged by Draco Malfoy, were also prejudiced against Hagrid due to his status as a half-giant , [17] and Draco's attack by Buckbeak, without caring that Draco did not listen to Hagrid in the first place.
However, despite Hagrid's mixed relationship with them, most of the students with the exception of Slytherin opposed Dolores Umbridge alongside Hagrid and disapproved of Umbridge's harsh and critical treatment of Hagrid due to her prejudice against part-humans.
They also believed that Hagrid had improved in his teaching by the time he was temporarily sacked by Umbridge although many of them did not take the subject for N.
Ts due to their past experiences with the dangerous creatures he taught. They were also extremely angry when Hagrid was attacked by Umbridge, again excluding the Slytherin students. Hagrid also opposed the Death Eater's control of Hogwarts alongside many of the students, including holding a Support Harry Potter Party in his Hut, and also fought alongside them against Voldemort and the Death Eater's during the Battle of Hogwarts.
Vernon , Petunia , and Dudley Dursley. Hagrid was sent by Albus Dumbledore to inform Harry Potter of his true identity on Harry's eleventh birthday in after it was revealed that Hogwarts' letters to him were getting blocked by his aunt and uncle, Vernon and Petunia Dursley, both Muggles who hated and feared magic. Eventually, Hagrid found Harry and his family in an old shack out at sea Vernon Dursley had become paranoid with the amount of Hogwarts letters arriving at their home, so he had temporarily vacated their home in the hopes that they would throw off any wizards possibly following them.
After giving Harry a birthday cake, he introduced himself to Harry, believing him to know everything about the wizarding world from the letter left by Albus Dumbledore.
Upon learning that Harry knew nothing, Hagrid became furious at the Dursleys for not telling him anything. When Hagrid proceeded to tell Harry that he was a wizard, Vernon became angry and admitted that they had known for years and had been trying to "stomp it out of him", including admitting that they lied to Harry in telling him that his parents had really been killed in a car crash. This further enraged Hagrid, but Vernon continued to try and keep Harry from going to Hogwarts, going so far as to call Albus Dumbledore a "crackpot old fool".
This, however, sent Hagrid over the edge; he lost his temper and used his pink umbrella to give Dudley Dursley a pig's tail. This terrified Vernon and Petunia enough to let Hagrid take Harry. Eventually, they would remove the pig tail, but the encounter added a newfound fear of magic to the Dursleys' hatred of it. The incident scared Dudley so much that he instinctively grabbed his bottom when meeting the Weasleys, despite them being friendly wizards.
Hagrid was disgusted by the Malfoy family 's pure blood supremacist values, their open ill-treatment of Muggle-borns and " blood traitors ," their allegiance to Lord Voldemort and their disrespect towards Albus Dumbledore ; even going so far as to accuse them of 'bad blood', rather against the principles espoused by Dumbledore. In turn, the Malfoys disliked Hagrid, regularly mocking him and doing nearly everything in their collective power to get him sacked from his post at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
During the — school year , Lucius was indirectly responsible for reopening of the Chamber of Secrets, as he had used the earlier scuffle with Arthur Weasley to slip Tom Riddle's diary into Ginny Weasley 's cauldron full of books. Hagrid was blamed for the attacks, just as he had been fifty years earlier when he was framed by Tom Riddle for the Chamber's first opening.
Hagrid was arrested as a precautionary measure by Cornelius Fudge , where Hagrid reacted angrily to Lucius' unnecessary presence and ordered him out. Lucius mocked Hagrid by wondering how his small hut could be considered a "house" and claimed he was only there to inform Dumbledore that he and the other governors had voted on his suspension.
Hagrid saw through Lucius and accused him of threatening the other governors, which later proved to have been exactly the case. Hagrid did not get along any better with Lucius' son Draco. Even before meeting Hagrid for the first time, Draco slandered him when talking to Harry Potter for the first time, describing him as " Hagrid called Draco an "idiot" when he scared Neville, and in , was outraged when he heard Draco called Hermione a Mudblood.
Draco was in Hagrid's Care of Magical Creatures class in and ignored Hagrid's advice on how to handle Hagrid's hippogriff Buckbeak. Draco insulted Buckbeak, causing the hippogriff to lash out and cut Draco's arm. Hagrid took Draco to the Hospital Wing , but Draco swore revenge, and deliberately exaggerated his injury to get Hagrid into trouble. Lucius was furious when he found out and took legal action against Hagrid and Buckbeak. Hagrid tried hard to defend Buckbeak, but the court ruled in favour of Lucius, largely due to his influence at the Ministry, and Buckbeak was sentenced to death, but later freed by Harry and Hermione.
In Draco's fourth year, he openly disobeyed Hagrid by saying that he would not be coming down to look after the blast-ended skrewts, saying that he spent too much time with them during regular class. Hagrid, hearing about the previous punishment 'Moody' gave Draco, threatened to turn him into a ferret. Later that year, Draco happily provided Rita Skeeter with skewed details about the events of the previous year and delighted when Hagrid temporarily went into hiding following Skeeter's publication of the article revealing that Hagrid was half-giant.
In his fifth year, Draco spoke negatively regarding Hagrid during Dolores Umbridge 's inspection of a Care of Magical Creatures class conducted by Professor Grubbly-Plank , likely hoping that Hagrid would be placed on probation when and if he returned to Hogwarts, an outcome that did indeed come to pass.
Given that Draco's wife Astoria helped to raise their son to be a kinder man than Draco was in his youth, it can be assumed that Scorpius Malfoy had a better relationship with Hagrid than his father did. This is also likely due to Scorpius being best friends with Albus Potter who was already a good friend of Hagrid's before his first year. The original Order of the Phoenix. Hagrid was friendly with most members of the Order of the Phoenix.
They fought together in several battles, including the Battle of the Astronomy Tower and the Battle of the Seven Potters , where Hagrid was devastated by Moody's death. Tonks later married Remus Lupin , and their son, Teddy, would attend Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry after both his parents were killed at the Battle of Hogwarts.
As Hagrid was a member of the Order of the Phoenix, he disliked the Death Eaters and tried to thwart their plans most of the time. Snape, on the other hand, defected from Voldemort, and Hagrid defended him whenever Harry, Ron and Hermione criticised him, except when he temporarily believed that Snape had betrayed Dumbledore at the Astronomy Tower.
Apart from the Malfoys, Hagrid also had an antagonistic relationship with Walden Macnair , who was a polar opposite to Hagrid's love and admiration for magical creatures. They first clashed when Buckbeak was going to be executed, with Macnair being Buckbeak's intended executioner, then for a second time when Macnair persuaded the giants to join Voldemort and as a result foiled Hagrid and Olympe Maxime 's own attempt to convince the giants to join Dumbledore, and a third time when Hagrid threw him across the Great Hall during the Battle of Hogwarts, knocking him unconscious.
Hagrid also knew Igor Karkaroff , as he once choked Karkaroff against a tree and told him to apologise to Dumbledore for accusing him of complicity in an attack on Viktor Krum. Thorfinn Rowle also tried to attack Hagrid following the Battle at Astronomy Tower and set his hut on fire. He later angrily silenced Hagrid when the latter tried to discourage Harry from sacrificing himself. Rubeus in Latin means "red". Hagrid is the archaic past participle of the verb "hagride", [33] which means "harass or torment with dread or nightmares", and its etymology in turn is " hag " and "ride".
According to folklore, the Hag sat on a sleeper's chest and sent nightmares to him or her. When the subject awoke, he or she would be unable to breathe or even move for a short period of time. This state is now called sleep paralysis, but in the old belief the subject had been "hagridden". Hagrid also may mean "hung over," as from alcohol.

Tiny little bloke, my dad was. By the time I was six I could lift him up an' put him on top o' the dresser if he annoyed me. Used ter make him laugh Tom Riddle : " Evening, Rubeus. I'm going to have to turn you in, Rubeus. They're talking about closing Hogwarts if the attacks don't stop. But monsters don't make good pets. I suppose you just let it out for exercise and — " Rubeus Hagrid : " It never killed no one! The dead girl's parents will be here tomorrow. The least Hogwarts can do is make sure that the thing that killed their daughter is slaughtered… " Rubeus Hagrid : " It wasn't him!
He wouldn'! He never! He fell asleep as we was flyin' over Bristol. Unidentified seventh year : " Hagrid has saved my life on more than one occasion. Hagrid : " If he wants ter go, a great Muggle like you won't stop him. Stop Lily an' James Potter's son goin' ter Hogwarts!
Yer mad. His name's been down ever since he was born. He's off ter the finest school of witchcraft and wizardry in the world. Seven years there and he won't know himself. It's dangerous. You forget that dog, an' you forget what it's guardin', that's between Professor Dumbledore an' Nicolas Flamel — " — Hagrid trying to convince the trio to stop nosing in about the Philosopher's Stone [src].
That's all I'm sayin'. I'll never forgive Hagrid. We're lucky to be alive. Got all tongue-tied. They was all sittin' there in black robes an' I kep' droppin' me notes and forgettin' all them dates yeh looked up fer me, Hermione. An' then Lucius Malfoy stood up an' said his bit, and the Committee jus' did exac'ly what he told 'em I 'ave nevair been more insulted in my life! I 'ave — I 'ave big bones! Let'em see we kept our promises. We'll come back tomorrow with another present, an' then we do come back with another present — gives a good impression, see?
An' gives them time ter test out the firs' present an' find out it's a good one, an' get 'em eager fer more. In any case, giants like Karkus — overload 'em with information an' they'll kill yeh jus' to simplify things. So we bowed outta the way an' went off an' found ourselves a nice little cave ter spend that night in, an' the followin' mornin' we went back an' this time we found Karkus sittin' up waitin' fer us lookin' all eager.
See — he's my brother! I think he's dyin' He got ill over the summer an' he's not gettin' better I don' know what I'll do if he We've bin tergether so long Where's he gone — was he chasin' them? Main article: Battle of the Astronomy Tower. Main article: Battle of the Seven Potters. However, Hagrid was not taken into custody, and is, we believe, on the run.
Voice carried, didn' it? Obviously, none of this was Hagrid's idea and Barty Crouch Jr. That being said, if they were caught, Hagrid totally would have been reprimanded harshly if not fired altogether. It was a total breach in the rules of the tournament. If this list has shown anything, its that Hagrid needs a new hobby. His obsession with monsters has put his career and freedom at risk too many times to count. When it comes to teaching his class, he eventually waned away from the more dangerous creatures.
But, in Harry's fourth year, he introduced a dangerous and grotesque beast that would annoy the students all year. Bred by Hagrid for his Care for Magical Creatures course, the repulsive monsters were a cross between a crab and scorpion, with strange armor and stingers.
They were beyond dangerous, killing each other and putting students at risk. Hagrid is fiercely loyal. This trait is both incredibly admirable but occasionally dangerous. Hagrid's temper is easily flared when someone insults anyone, especially Albus Dumbledore. In the novel, he grabbed Karkaroff, pinned him to a tree, and demanded he apologize to the headmaster.
Dumbledore talked him down, but this action could have been a major indictment on the half-giant. If Karkaroff wanted, he could have made the situation a bigger incident than it already was. Not only did he assault a teacher, but one visiting from abroad. This could have reached international levels of intervention. Luckily, Hagrid probably scared Karkaroff too much to get much flack.
Hagrid is a fairly tragic figure in the Potter series. Was there some other factor involved that I've missed, or was the Ministry just looking for a scapegoat? There's a similar question regarding the lack of due course with Sirius Black , but the accepted answer doesn't seem to apply to Hagrid's situation. Becuause Fudge was a spineless, power-hungry bureaucrat tyrant, more concerned with being seen "doing something" and covering his butt, than actually achieving results. His blue eyes were full of a fire Harry had never seen before.
Got to be seen to be doing something. Got to. Another factor is the justice system in the Wizarding world is very By which I mean there seems to be no actual mechanism for justice, as we know it. Sounds harsh, but there's evidence. I doubt Hagrid was formally charged, he was expelled instead of arrested, and the business of the school and the courts was established as separate Harry's trial in OOTP.
Getting questioned in CoS might make sense, even arrested - but he was not arrested, he was "disappeared" Nevermind the isolation and torture, nobody objected, right? The case of Sirius Black is fairly well chewed over in the book - that he was still going to be kissed after having the kids tell Fudge is Fudge's fault. The fact he was denied a trial for several years more is a lot more troublesome, because even people Dumbledore, Tonks, Shacklebolt being able to find evidence he hadn't any due process of law wasn't enough to get the kill order even delayed enough for trial or investigation or even just questioning.
Barty Crouch is the other case that really shows the justice system for all its flaws. His trial was short, "an excuse for crouch to show how much he hated the boy", with three people who proudly plead guilty and one who got dragged from the courtroom screaming how he didn't do it. Granted, readers know he's guilty - the question is who believed it when.
Bonus point, that might have influenced his mother to get him out. Previous Next. Rubeus Hagrid Click the character infographic to download. What's Up With the Ending? Tired of ads? Join today and never see them again. Get started.
