hh_clubs | DADA: Unspeakable Profilers

Hello DADA Experts!

After Voldemort's rise and fall, the wizarding world wanted to make sure that no wizard would become as bad as Voldy did! One of the ways that Minister Shacklebolt has decided to stop another wizard from getting this powerful and evil, has been to start the division of Unspeakables that job is to profile wizards (like the BAU). You are hired to this division.

Tom came from a troubled family. He was conceived by magic through a love potion, so he was never truly loved. His mother died in child birth and he never met his father, who had no wish to know him. He felt isolated with no one to talk to about his powers. The the orphanage everyone kept a distinct distance from him. They thought he was strange. This made Tom resentful of people in general. When he got angry, odd things happened. Fires started around him frequently. Eventually he realised that he was responsible and became able to control it. Control was something he had never had before. People had always made the decisions for him. Now here was something he controlled. He wanted to know more, and when he went to Hogwarts learnt as much as he could. But he didn't like the constraints. You couldn't do this with magic and you couldn't do that. Tom didn't want to be bossed around any more. He was going to do things his way. It led him down a slippery path. The lure of being able to do what he liked got to him and he eventually lost all care about others. He just wanted power.

I would like to begin my profile by noting that Tom Riddle is not actually a Death Eater. Death Eaters are servants of Lord Voldemort, and Tom Riddle is Lord Voldemort, so he can’t be his own servant, so I’m going to focus on what led Tom Riddle to become Lord Voldemort.

Tom Riddle has been ostracized since youth. His father abandoned him when he was still in the womb, his mother abandoned him by dying upon his birth, and because of this he would not allow others to get close to him for fear of being left again, but still longing to be accepted. His continuous rejection caused by him pushing everyone away made him bitter towards others and made him feel as if he needed to prove that he was above all those who rejected him. He showed his dominance over his father by killing him. He showed that he was better than his mother by trying to find a way to defeat death through the use of horucruxes, which I believe led to the true transformation of Tom Riddle to Lord Voldemort.
