Harry Potter characters compared to WA characters

[Creem_Filling]

From the characters from the Harry Potter series, who do you think they relate to most from We're Alive?

[Creem_Filling]

I'm going to go ahead and put Bellatrix Lestrange as Scratch. They're both evil, slightly crazy, and both yearning to please their leader.

[kafu288]

Moody is Burt. A senior advisor to the main guy and a grizzled veteran who questions the decisions made due to safety.

TOWTM is Voldyshorts.

Angel is Ron - he can lead in certain situations and shows leadership at times, but he needs to really be pushed to get to that point. Also, he falls in line behind Harry most of the time while still having his moments where he challenges him.

We don't need your attitude!

[nikvoodoo]

Totally agree that TOWTM/however many others are like him=Voldy

Pegs before she liked to shoot weapons was like Luna Lovegood (very wide eyed and innocent), but since she's taken to shooting things every once and a while, she's a little more like Ginny (capable when she needs to be, but occasionally needs Michael to save her)

Michael is obviously Harry.

Angel to me, is a cave troll.....big, lunking and stupid. ok I'm kidding, I agree with Kafu that Angel is Ron. He has the bravery to act in the field, but he's not a leader of men.

Scratch i associate with Mrs. Malfoy. She has a softer side to her we have yet to see in abundance, but we know its there. Belatrix has no sympathy, and as such....

Gatekeeper is totally Belatrix. Totally power hungry, and sadistic. The only thing he's missing is having a idol to worship.

And Skittles=Dobby. Guess that means gatekeeper is going to kill Skittles before we're done. You heard it here first in the Harry Potter thread!

So that's just a few.

The rat is snape. Both characters played both sides to further their own needs

your dumb. snape was ALWAYS on harry and Dumbledore's side. ever since he betrayed Harry's parents. snape was on the good side and playing vodemort to help harry. he did it out of love for harry's mother and was helping the good guys. this means that with your post the rat would love Michael? and he would be killing/ratting out the tower to someone else which is the opposite of the harry potter story line...


shovel. shovel:)

[kafu288]

your dumb. snape was ALWAYS

what? Snape was always good? yeah but still... he had both sides (Aside from Big D) fooled

[Creem_Filling]

Read the books!

[kafu288]

I have. Snape ended up being good. Still though, the rat is the closest. Consider the rat the inverted Snape then.

[nikvoodoo]

Read the books!

I'd say watch the movies, but you'd have to wait another month to understand what's going on entirely.

[itsallgoodie]

edited post. read it.

[kafu288]

um... its not exactly supposed to be an exact match just who we think they are closest to.

[nikvoodoo]

I think that Barty Crouch Jr. actually fits the role of the Rat better. In disguise and working for an outside power.

nick much better.

[kafu288]

Didn't even think of Barty. That is a better fit

[Creem_Filling]

Tommy would totally be Neville. He was presumed useless and weak, but was important and a major player. Only Tommy was a silly pants and got bit, while Neville remained unbitten.

[ObamaCat]

Tommy you silly pants.

[Pikepaw]

agreed, Tommy died before he could become a badass like Neville

Pegs is Hermione because they're both female. Thus is the extent of my Harry Potter knowledge.

[Leedo2502]

Pfffsh that and their extensive knowledge in herbology/floristry

[itsallgoodie]

Mr. Lovegood is the Gatekeeper because they are both super creepy and weird and on top of that they both are willing to put others in harms way to get what they want Ex. Mr. Lovegood turns in Harry, Ron, Herminone, while Gatekeeper does what it takes to take over the colony. also neville was a drug dealer, tommy was not. no dice.

[Creem_Filling]

Hermione is actually a boy. You're so wrong, it's not even funny.

Lol, of course I jest. If Hermione were a boy, I would be totally gay for Emma Watson (she plays Hermione in the movies).

[itsallgoodie]

yup. we all would.

Keep in mind, Lovegood turned them in to save his daughter, not anything selfish. But I understand what your saying. And I don't know what to say about the drug dealer thing. Lol.

[itsallgoodie]

think about it. herbology.

[Creem_Filling]

Oh! You bring up a very good point! He was seriously hiding something, the innocence was just a cloak.

[kafu288]

when the fuck was Neville a drug dealer?

[nikvoodoo]

Well depends....would you consider Gillyweed a drug?

[kafu288]

more like a herb

[Creem_Filling]

Well depends....would you consider Gillyweed a drug?

I would very much consider it a drug. Did you see what it did to Harry? He thought he was a fish and jumped in a lake. But in the books, it wasn't Neville who gave Harry the stuff. It was Dobby, and they seriously messed that up in the movies. And I just thought of something. Tommy could be Dobby. He was just looking to help people out and was very feeble, but then ended up dying for it.

Well I know Dobby gave him the gillyweed in the books, but that wouldn't help illustrate Neville as a drug dealer! :p

I'd say Tommy is more like Colin Creevy, but Tommy actually accomplished more than Colin ever could.

[Solanine]

Hmm. Saul is Harry. There both so full of Angst! :L .... I joke.... Peggs is Ginny, there both sort of useless at the start but start to mature as characters.

[mem]

Great thread. It's interesting how you can take one set of characters from one story and identify with them in another.

[Solanine]

Yeah, Ive done it before but other things are much easier. Maybe it says something about the lack of cliche characters in We're alive. Everybody is unique and believable.

I'm way off topic but i liked how Stephen King began to cross each of his Gunslinger novels over into the worlds of his other novels.

This was actually a conversation Kafu, Nik, and I were having in the chatbox. Nik said to make this to avoid spoilers in the chatbox. There's a little history for ya.

[Creem_Filling]

Nagini is "Paul" the zombie. He is just a servant of the big man (at least I assume) as is Nagini. Also Nagini disguised as Bathilda Bagshot and zombie "Paul" disguised as a living human. Both to gain the trust of their enemies! I love this thread, it's so much fun to think of these!

[yarri]

The rat is snape. Both characters played both sides to further their own needs

I respectfully disagree. Snape was the most heroic of all the characters and there for unclassifiable for this thread. We have yet to see any character be a double agent which is what Snape was. Saul is Remus Lupin loyal tragic funny.

[beesting]

I have to say if you're going to use the gillyweed incident to illustrate how Neville was a drug dealer then he's a pretty bad drug dealer, he didn't make crap off of that.

All jesting aside, I'd say that Tanya is like Molly Weasley, obviously they're both Mom's, but more than that, they are both very strong women who seem to have a sixth sense about their children (ok Molly has a clock). But they also don't take crap from other people, they do what they think is right regardless of the consequences.
