Viktor Krum

Been re-reading some of my favourite chapters of the Harry Potter books, and y'know who my favourite character is?

Viktor Krum.

Because he was surrounded by dark magic and bad influences, treated like royalty (even without his famed seeker status), was pure-blood, never treated anyone as lesser, liked muggle born Hermione for her mind AND physical beauty, thought Harry was a great quidditch player (and never once compared Harry to his own skills because he’s humble), was genuinely flattered that Ron wanted his autograph, liked Cedric and made a point to tell Harry, was an ally in the fight against Voldermort, the list could go on...

Also...

Viktor was obviously deeply in love with Hermione... 

Remember the fact that he took her to prom, knowing that he could’ve chosen any other girl? Remember how he forgot about everyone and danced with her all night? Remember how he looked at her while saying "write to me, please"? Remember how a few years later at Fleur’s wedding, he danced with her one more time - probably being conscious that her heart already belonged to Ron?

Viktor Krum. The most underrated character in the whole Harry Potter series.
