The similarities are already very apparent. A piece of jewelry infused with the soul of an evil dark lord that will torture the wearer and will fight back against being destroyed. That bit of soul keeping the one who put the soul into the jewelry tied to the mortal realm. And the only way to defeat said dark lord is by destroying the jewelry completely. There are differences aplenty to keep it from just blatant plagiarism

@@brettbrooks5511Yeah. She almost certainly did. The One Ring is actually both a lot like a Horcrux and the complete opposite at the same time. Sauron is a Maia, and so he is immortal by nature. When he created the Ring, he actually introduced that weakness of binding himself to the Ring in exchange for more power, specifically power over the 19 Rings of Power. Had he never created the ring, he never could have been permanently killed. Basically, before he created the Ring he was like Voldemort when he has his Horcruxes. You can kill his body but he never truely dies, and he can form a new body. When the One Ring is destroyed, Sauron isn't actually killed. He's reduced to a spirit, never able to gain enough power to reform a body, because so much of his power was put into the Ring. He becomes a lot like what Voldemort was after he tries to kill Harry as a baby, except he can't come back.

I had always thought the idea of the soul as a sheet of cloth was a good metaphor. When you do harm and bad makes the sheet dirty. You can do good to clean it but stains remain and takes alot of work to truly be clean again. Depending on the evil acts causes the sheet to fray the ends and tear. Murders would cause clean rips of the sheet but most people do their best to keep it small and to not tear that sheet too much. I assumed making a horcrux would purposefully do great evil and murder with the intent to tear your own soul sheet so much that a piece of it would tear off completely. This would be real Dark magic and would explain why not all murders immediately create horcruxes. The caster has to intentually make the rip completely tear their soul.

@Ralph-rr9iv 3 ай бұрын

Taking your very good analogy, committing murder does cause your soul to fray and tear, but is remains intact and repairable. Even if the soul tears, remorse and repentance can repair the damage somewhat. After you commit murder, THEN you cast the horcrux spell. That takes that piece of soul and PERMANITLY separate it from person. Even Grinwald soul, after his defeat but before his genuine remorse, was cleaner that Voldemort's soul post Goblet of Fire.

I always saw the diary as being able to come back because Voldemort had probably put so much of himself into it. NO Im not talking about it being the first horcrux (although that may have helped) but like with the painting in Dumbledore’s office Voldemort probably wrote a LOT about himself and his feelings in that diary growing up so the diary could take on his persona.

@Senkoau 3 ай бұрын

You could have something there. Voldemort pours his hopes, dreams and fears into the diary over years of his life then gives it a part of his own soul. Fast forward and Ginny also pours her hopes, dreams and fears into the diary allowing it to try and develop a life of its own. An unintended self aware existence like the ford angelina. Possibly with Ginny's soul trapped in the diary in place of Voldemorts.

@semm28 3 ай бұрын

To me, it feels like the Diary was more 'aware' than most of the other Horcruxes. That could be because of what it was, but either way, that begs the question. How conscious IS the Diary, and did it at all resent Voldemort for essentially 'trapping' it inside the dairy, and having it sealed away. It's like it was locked in a prison, but with little chance of a visitor. Going by that line of logic, it makes sense why it tried to make a body for itself. It probably wanted it's autonomy back.

@seankrake4776 3 ай бұрын

I suspect that all of the horcruxes had the sentience, but only the diary had a good way of displaying it. We see the locket try to convince Ron to not destroy it, so maybe all of the horcruxes had this ability to intelligently react to the world around it. perhaps wearing the diadem would have had a similar effect where it allows Voldemort's soul to attempt to control you. I always interpreted that the diary instructed ginny to perform a resurrection spell/potion, since it was also able to instruct her to speak parseltongue. I personally don't think the diary did manifest its own body, I think it effectively Imperio'd Ginny into doing it for him, just that the spell or potion used was different than the one Wormtail used.

@Snidget-76 3 ай бұрын

Yes, the more I think about it, the less "special" the Diary seems to be. It looks like all Horcruxes are conscious, and they contain a copy/snapshot of Voldemort's personality, the way he was at the time the Horcrux was made. It does not age or change. The Locket had Tom Riddle's *dark* eyes, not red, as though the entity living inside it was frozen in time and also quite independent from the real Voldemort.

This video got me thinking about the basilisk bite Harry endures. His life is saved of course by Fawkes' tears, but could the bite have potentially destroyed Voldemorts piece of soul in Harry - without Harry dying? I guess not, as he is not beyond repair as a vessel. Would he potentially have been able to speedrun all the "becoming the master of death" levels in his earlier years, so he could decide to go back after basilisk induced fatality?

@TheNinthGenerarion 3 ай бұрын

I would appreciate more of an explanation over how the soul portions are all always equal. Not to say it’s always 50/50 either. What if the ripped piece is a different size each time you kill you someone, dependent on how attached you were to the individual. Like, killing someone you truly love would result in the largest piece possible, and someone you didn’t know (or someone you wanted to kill) would result in the smallest possible piece breaking off.

@aisleelovegreenwood6448 3 ай бұрын

So the way I look at it is that the soul is like a body of water with a shared consciousness: water can divide itself, be poured back into one source, and divide itself all over again. Now imagine that these pieces of soul are _unlike_ water in that they are not physical, and therefore do not conform to the laws of physics or size. They don't really _have_ a size at all, though if you need to picture them, imagine they are capable of growing or shrinking on their own. The consciousness is always evenly split between them because it is in all of them at once, and since they themselves do not have a size, they are the size of the consciousness, which is one thing rather than the seven things its split between. Is that confusing, or does it make sense? I know it's a bit abstract, lol, but souls themselves are abstract because they aren't physical constructs, so they don't work by the laws we're used to in the physical world.

@aisleelovegreenwood6448 3 ай бұрын

Actually, let me just put it this way: if the act of "splitting" the soul takes a little bit from each piece to form the new one, then they'd always be the same size as each other, and each one would get smaller and smaller: less and less human as they were spread thin. First you'd be 50%/50%, then 33%/33%/33%, then 25%/25%/25%/25%, then 20%/20%/20%/20%/20%, etc.

@seankrake4776 3 ай бұрын

@@aisleelovegreenwood6448 I don't think this part is true. I don't think a percentage of a soul tied to an object would jump from that object to a new one. I think your first idea is more on track. I think of it like having a single long chain, and a big anchor at the end of it. the chain (soul) never changes sizes, but when your soul splits, it breaks the anchor(vessel). You still have the same weight, but if that part of the anchor gets destroyed and removed from the chain, you lose the weight of it. while all portions of the anchor were attached, the chain was the same length, and overall had the same weight. it doesn't take half of the chain and connect one part to each half anchor, it just segmented the anchor that provides the weight to the chain. when any part of the anchor gets destroyed, it lessens the whole weight of the chain, and when all parts of the anchor have been removed, the chain no longer can grasp onto the seabed(the world of the living).

@@Elementalgodess-1 I think that each of the horcruxes had some sentient factor like the diary. we see the locket affect the minds of those wearing it, and even remotely trying to convince Ron not to destroy it. we know the Diary had the ability to communicate via the ink. I suspect that even Harry's insane luck and abilities were that portion of voldemort's soul trying to protect the vessel. we know that Dumbledore gave into the call of the void and touched the ring, which may have been that portion of the soul trying to protect itself by tricking Albus into a deadly curse. we don't see much about the cup or the diadem. but I've got some ideas: we know the cup was with the party for a while. one thing I've always noticed is that Ron and Hermione act kinda strange during the battle for Hogwarts. Hermione is constantly remarking about how brilliant Ron is. we see Ron also complementing Hermione for her bravery and ability to deliver. maybe becasue the cup also had some magic from Helga, Voldemort's soul only had the ability to try to convince a person that their greatest qualities were actually much less than others, and we just don't get enough time to see it play out. We also don't see the diadem for very long. it doesn't seem to have any protective spells on it, but in the room of requirement, we see Crabbe uncharacteristically decide to do something of his own volition and cast fiendfyre. perhaps the diadem convinced Crabbe to attempt this very powerful spell in an attempt to defend itself. this one kinda fails because it is what ends up destroying it.

He split into two that day, and one got to live in the body while the other was forced into an object.

This got me thinking about how Dumbledore told Harry he didn't think the potion containing the locket would actually kill the drinker, because Voldemort would've wanted to interrogate him. That makes no sense, since drinking the potion makes you so thirsty you'll drink water filled with corpses, waking them up so they WILL kill you. (Being killed by inferi tends to ruin interrogations.) Furthermore, as was pointed out, Voldemort cursed the ring so it would kill the wearer. It was only very fast action on Dumbledore and Snape's part that stopped Albus's death from being immediate.

I think it would be possible through the resurrection potion Voldemort used in book 4. I think it is made specifically to revive you from a Horcrux, and originally your Horcrux would be placed in it. Its multiplication effect was, however, never tested, as there is no point of using it before your body dies, and nobody before Voldemort had multiple Horcruxes. Through attachment, I'm not sure for most of them. Unlike an intelligent diary, the other objects are hard to attach to, unless the way you obtain them makes you so through memories, but they aren't supposed to be found and taken possession of.

I think you should re-visit "The Fraction Theory" but this time remember that Tom learned about horcruxes and inquired about splitting the soul into seven peices as a student (in other words, before he made them) so instead of halving it each time Tom would have intentionally put 1/7th of his soul into each of the six horcruxs he intended to make, leaving the last 1/7th in his body. He will accidentally split this last 1/7th into two 1/14ths, one in harry and the other floating around in the albainian forrests or whatever.

The question I have is, can a horcrux create a horcrux? Like if diary riddle came back could he create a horcrux?

@AshleysAdvice 3 ай бұрын

That's a good question honestly probably, he didn't mention it in this video but has in the past, but the reason the diary is so dangerous is because that part of Voldemort is the most Voldemort out of all the Voldemort like the piece of Tom is more Voldemort than Voldemort is there he probably would consider himself to be Voldemort prime, he's also the only one who technically could do the whole remorse thing since he's the first part of soul, but probably not still since he even back then didn't ever really feel remorseful, but if he could he'd be the one that could I think, because by the time you get to Voldemort prime there is so little humanity left inside of him that it's just not possible, I'm still a little bit confused about Tom Riddle piece of soul in the diary, but I think he is different from the other ones in that he could actually return and have a proper body because of how the hokcrocks was made

@@AshleysAdviceSuch a good answer! I always thought the same thing. On the other hand, I don't think Diary-Voldemort would attemt other Horcruxes, since he would perhaps discover that his soul is in 7 pieces already (Prime, Diary, Ring, Cup, Diadem, Locket, and Harry). By killing Harry in the Chamber, I think, one Horcrux would recognize the other. Therefore no other Horcrux would be of need. The Diary-Horcrux is so special because it is a safe haven for that piece of soul and a sincere weapon on the other. Actually, Dumbledore mentions to Harry that this very feature tipped him of. Voldemort must have created more than one horcrux if he was willing to make a weapon out of one. Since the second book he tried to figure out how many were out there. Hence the importance of Slughorns memory.

I wonder what would happen, when you throw a horcrux through the Veil? Technically the horcrux is not destroyed, but on the other hand, that piece of soul entered the afterlife. So could you hide a working horcrux behind the veil where nobody can destroy it, or does the container get destroyed 'automatically'?

@aisleelovegreenwood6448 3 ай бұрын

I guess to answer that question, we'd have to know what exactly happens to a person's body when a normal person goes through it. If it destroys their body, then I'd say it likely would destroy a horcrux (though potentially it still wouldn't be powerful enough to), but if somehow the body itself is just...brought with you into the afterlife...? Idk, it's honestly really weird to imagine that, but it would be our best indicator if we could at least have that information. Though again, it might still work differently on a horcrux container than a body. Like, what would happen to a normal locket or cup if it was thrown through the veil? I'm sure someone's done that, though they likely never found out what happened to it on the other side. I think if Dumbledore had a talk with Sirius, he could come up with a pretty good theory, lol, but we can't exactly ask either of them, now can we?😂 Gosh, now I'm just thinking about Dumbledore finally getting so many of his questions answered.

Really fascinating idea to explore. While I see them both as equal parts of his soul, and therefore equally _him,_ one was removed from the body and made to anchor the other. It was put in chains, so to speak. I suppose it would depend on whether the diary itself would have been destroyed when Tom came back to life. If it was still in tact, if he was still linked to it, then he would still be an anchor for the other Voldemort. If him becoming fully alive would have severed his tie to it, perhaps that would have broken the bond that made him the other's horcrux! Ooh, this is really interesting. I honestly can't say whether he would have been freed from his bondage. Would it be broken by the sacrifice of Ginny's life? The taking of a life was what it took to bind him, could another be the key to setting him free?

Could you, for example, make a piece of paper into a horcrux, put it through a shredder, and then hide the individual shreds in many locations?

(I am imaginen Voldemorts lose soul floating around just dodging people in love out of fear) -How does a posession work? Is it charmed, a spell, or like A song of ice and fire, a fierce battle in the mind.? -Could it be used like a tool? A super spy master, makes a horcrux, kills himself eiher permanently or for a while, floats around and spies on people, then returns to life when it has absorbed the info it needed. I can imagine dark lords blackmailing people into doing this if it worked like that. -Can Voldemorts soul ever move on, like you said, it would be extremely painful to feel the remorse, hence the fetal position in Kings Cross, but what happens, when he has felt it all at some point, like a thousand years later. Will the soul be redeemed?

Thank you so much for this video because it cleared up a misconception I've had since the books were new. You even specifically mention in this video how I thought it worked. I always thought that each horcrux was like a "life." Like if someone were to successfully Avada Kedavra Voldemort prime then he would die but consume one of the Horcrux's, using up a "life" and then return to life anew. I always thought Dumbledore could duel Voldemort eight times and if he killed him eight times then that would use up all of Voldemort's horcrux's. Now I understand that each individual horcrux prevents Voldemort from dying which is why it was so important to hunt them all down before the final confrontation. Dumbledore could kill Voldemort over and over and he would always come back as long as there was one horcrux. Blowing my mind. Thanks SuperCarlinBrothers!

Cause what do you think happened when Voldemort was turning the Ring into a Horcrux? That 1/3rd of the soul from the diary just came out of it and embedded itself into the ring? But then again, if it was this way, Diary Riddle should be more powerful than Voldemort Prime, but VP simply has more experience. This entire thing is definitely messed up. Also, one thing I’m really curious about is this, we know what Voldemort looks like thanks to Goblet of Fire. But did he always look like this before he went down? Like what did he look like when he came to kill the Potters? Are the snakelike features due to Nagini’s milk or something?

@aisleelovegreenwood6448 3 ай бұрын

I saw a few others talking about this. One said they figured he could do so, but likely wouldn't need to, because the other horcruxes that already exist would anchor both of them. I will say it's complex, though, because the horcruxes _don't_ seem to anchor each other, since we saw that piece of Voldemort's soul in limbo when Harry temporarily died, meanwhile Voldemort Prime and Nagini were still on the living side. Now, does this mean that a horcrux who's successfully come back to life couldn't _create_ their own horcrux? It might be different if that new horcrux was made specifically to tie _him_ to life rather than the other Voldemort, but I really don't know. I personally see them both as equally being _him,_ though the one was just trapped and made to be the anchor for the other. I personally think a horcrux piece-of-soul, once freed from its item, is just as much the person as the piece of soul that was never trapped, so I think he could create his own horcruxes if he wanted to.

You know, this is actually a very interesting question. How exactly do you make a Horcrux and do all of them have special properties? What I mean is that some Horcruxes seem to have defences but others don't. The Diary opens the chamber, kills someone to bring back Voldemort and summons a Basilisk. The Locket shows you your greatest fear, almost like a Dementor and effects your emotions severely. The Ring puts a curse on you that normally kills within the hour or so but Snape was powerfup enough to keep it contained to Dumbledore's hand, but it still killed him within a year. Harry and Nagini are of course living creatures and have a natural instinct to protect themselves. The Cup and Diadem however don't seem to have any defences. But why? What makes them different?

@semm28 3 ай бұрын

Well, we can assume that if someone actually chose to WEAR the Diadem, it would have had active defenses. The locket began working while worn and 'opened'. The Diary began working when it was written in. And the ring, as you said, worked when it was worn. The Cup is more difficult, perhaps it would have affected anything that is drank from it? But who in their right mind would drink from such an object?

The Ring is different since it's a family heirloom and Voldy didn't want anyone else to have it. Even the Locket tried to 'fuse' with someone (Ron) but when it was exposed it used Ron's feelings to make him choose it over Harry.

If Voldemort was resurrected that day, Voldemort would have been reborn completely not as a 17-year-old boy or whatever. The personality of the horcrux was more because Tom split his soul when he was young, but the rest of his being is still floating about so I figured it would reunite his spirits to create a whole being or something.

I thought a bit about the diary thing, and I have probably only 3 logical possibilities of what would have happened if the body generation process of the diary was completed 1) The horcrux moves from the diary into the body, as a body requires a soul to function. This would then mean that you have to kill the Voldi with either avada kedavra, basilisk venom or fiendfyre to destroy the horcrux 2) The body becomes an extension of the diary, soulless by itself, but functional due to its link to the diary. This would mean that you have to destroy the diary in order to destroy the horcrux, as getting rid of the body just destroys its herald of sorts 3) The body and diary enter a symbiotic relationship, being so magically interconnected that destroying one would destroy the other (see LOTR) and the horcrux within them. Essentially, both would have the same part of Voldemort's soul. This would mean that either killing the diary Voldi or destroying the diary would destroy the horcrux. Personally, I believe 1st option to be most likely, since we know that there is a process that can move a soul from a body to an object and vice versa, and a body needs to have some kind of soul in it to function, and what is a horcrux but a soul, allbeit a tattered one?
