    • @Ranger1812
      @Ranger1812 2 года назад +2

      That's not true in terms of each splitting of your soul splitting your soul in half. Your soul is either always in an equal-sized number of pieces (I.E. a three-part soul means your soul is in equal thirds, but if you split it again each piece is an equal quarter of the whole), or a specific amount is split off each time, for example every time you split your soul it splits off an eighth of the original amount.

    @Godzillawolf1 3 года назад +349

    There is an actual potential loophole here:
    Would the sword become a Horcrux, or would it just absorb Voldemort's power? Because remember, it doesn't now have a supply of Basilisk venom inside it, it has the qualities of basilisk venom.
    So the question is, would the sword become a Horcrux, or would it simply 'eat' the piece of soul and take in Voldemort's power? Or would it perhaps just absorb the power of a Horcrux? IE, so long as Voldemort and his horcruxes exist, the sword can't be destroyed?

    • @rachelzahava8292
      @rachelzahava8292 3 года назад +17

      Yes something more like this makes sense to me, the sword isn't a basilisk, it's just poisonous, it wouldn't be a horcrux it just might be able to posses and control people somewhat or make them extra angry, but that isn't always a good thing so it would need control over it. If the sword was a full on horcrux then the sword would be weakened in some ways

    • @PhilBagels
      @PhilBagels 3 года назад +29

      Yeah. I don't see why becoming a horcrux makes it stronger. How many people/monsters have been killed (or at least stabbed) by the sword in it's centuries-long history? Were all of their souls absorbed by the sword? All of their powers? If Godric Gryffindor killed some evil wizard back in the day, that doesn't mean the sword gains the power to use magic on its own. Likewise, if you used the sword to destroy a broom, that doesn't necessarily give the sword the ability to fly.
      It seems to me that the most important inherent quality of the sword is to present itself to a worthy Gryffindor in time of need. If it was made to house a piece of Voldy's soul, it becomes a corrupt and reviled thing. Worthy Gryffindors would consider it an abomination, much like the Grey Lady did with the diadem, once it had been made into a horcrux. I'd say that would make the sword weaker. It would no longer inspire the pride and courage and love of Gryffindor.

    I always thought of it as that the horcruxes, as much as they do definitely imbue power, they also change the original purpose of of the object:
    a diary is for writing in confidentiality, but instead it is used for manipulation and also hidden away
    a ring is for wearing but once it became a horcrux the Gaunt ring cannot be worn without inflicting harm and is hidden away
    a locket is for keeping loved ones close to your heart, but instead it is used to manipulate people
    a cup is to be put on display for all to see as it shows pride in ones accomplishment, but once it is a horcrux, it is locked away in a vault and hidden
    a diadem is to be worn, it shows beauty and wealth and is there to be displayed on someone's head, but it is hidden (to be fair, it was hidden before it became a horcrux however this still doesn't contradict my original statement)
    snakes are meant to be wild and live of small mammals such as rats, but once a horcrux, Nagini begins to get more aggressive and gains an appetite for humans
    Harry was meant to live a full ordinary life (for a wizard), but the horcrux changed him, made him a parseltongue, made him different and changed his entire life.
    This change, would surely cause the sword of Gryffindor to reject the horcrux as its primary purpose is to become a more powerful sword, and becoming a horcrux would prevent it from being a sword even if it made it more powerful
    also, the vast majority of the power which a horcrux imbues is defensive and a sword is an offensive weapon, so whatever defensive measures the horcrux may imbue, it would not become a more powerful sword.

    I have a head canon that trying to turn the sword into a Horcrux is what repelled the killing curse from Harry and reflected the piece of soul onto him instead. The protection from love was never powerful enough to block the curse, it just prevented Voldemort from touching Harry. Even in the graveyard, Voldemort just says "I could not touch the boy” when he is describing the magic of Lily's sacrifice. The head canon is even more elaborate but the rest of it is purely just my speculation on the details

      Goblin silver repels mundane dirt. Perhaps it became tarnished in becoming a Horcrux, ie a magical dirtiness. In truth I don't actually think goblin silver can become a horcrux either, I am just postulating a possible way for it to be both tarnished and goblin wrought.

    I don't think the sword chooses "worthy" or generically powerful things to absorb, I think the sword absorbs traits that would make it more powerful as a sword and repls the rest. A soul would not give any benefits to a sword, so I think it would repel a horcrux. But this makes me wonder: Why did the sword not keep the flame it was forged in? Do goblins not use fire to shape their metals?

    I should think the fact that the sword can randomly teleport into the hands of people who are likely to want to destroy anything associated with Voldemort or the Dark Arts would make it the worst item Voldemort could possibly turn into a horcrux, so it's just as well that it never became one.

They believe everything they make still belongs to them, the only reason they don't have the sword is because Griffindor was so stubborn. So I'm sure they've worked through all manner of situations, doesn't matter what the sword has absorbed, if the sword is a horcrux then the goblins are the best equiped to handle the situation or at the very least find a solution. There has to be a weakness to this metal and I bet it's something only they know and no one else would figure out.

That being said the biggest problem is that the sword just disappears and McGonagall says that vanished objects go "into non-being, which is to say, everything" meaning that likely the sword just disappears and becomes part of everything so Harry would have to perform some sort of act to even summon it in the first place.

    The sword having similar powers to Fawkes aligns nicely with the Albus is a descendent of Godric theory.

Just treat ‘Gryffindor’ both as a family name, and then it works for both house and blood relatives.

    About Avada Kedavra, I think it might work on the sword. The spell means something to the effect of “let the thing be destroyed” (in Latin I think), so it’s not exclusively a killing curse.
    We saw in Voldemort and Dumbledore’s duel at the Ministry that Avada Kedavra can destroy non living things. The golden centaur was shattered, and a desk got set on fire by the curse. And unlike basilisk venom and feindfyre, Avada Kedavra has no counter other than a sacrifice (Phoenix tears for basilisk venom, and feindfyre has a counter curse). Other than sacrificial love, no known magic can block, divert, or otherwise stop the killing curse. That includes being absorbed.

    Possibly the greatest delivery of any line ever. John Hurt is amazing. He gave every drop of meaning that NEEDED to be in that line. Had to come to the towel section and geek out, just for a second. 🤩🥰😁
    Also also... The TI-83 reference made. my. day. Headcanon ACCEPTED! 😎
    Also also actually actually... petition to add underbritches to the list of greatest words alongside rocketship and racecar. 😂
