~PERSONALITY--

BOGGART[/b]- Death; himself dead.
PATRONUS[/b]- Serpent (if he were to need one)
OVERALL PERSONALITY[/b]-
WRATH- Wrath, anger, hate, ire… whatever you want to call it, he certainly has a great amount of it. Making him mad could be the worst mistake you ever make, and maybe the last. Unfortunately for most everyone, except himself, it is not very hard to infuriate him. He has little to no patience and very little control over it more often than not. You would do best to not disappoint him, as he is likely to give no second chances, either. That is why it is said that being a Death Eater is a job for life, there is no backing out.

INDEPENDENCE- Though he, of course, likes having his followers to do simple things for him, he is unequivocally independent. In everything he does, he first tries his hardest to find an independent way to get whatever it may be done. His seven Horcruxes are an excellent example of this part of his personality. Deciding on Horcruxes, rather than something like a Sorcerer’s Stone, which he would have had to depend on taking the elixir and that it would not fail, shows it. He does not even like to depend on his Death Eaters with important things, as he cannot trust them or take the chance that they will not fail him and ruin everything.

DOMINANCE- His name says it, Lord Voldemort. He loves having dominance, authority and control. He is undoubtedly a leader and an exceedingly dominant person. Always the one handing out orders, he would never take them himself. Excluding his young years, when he had to do what he was told to keep his cover, he would punish anyone who tried to order him around or talk back to him.

INDIVIDUALITY- Lord Voldemort has always valued individuality and uniqueness. He likes to keep himself different and well separated from others. Even things as simple as him birth name, Tom, that connected him to the millions of other Toms, had to go. That was before he even knew it had been his father’s name as well, he truly despised the commonness of the name. Over the years, his has brought himself to be different than any other wizard in any way possible.[/size]

OVERALL HISTORY[/b]-
On the night of December 31, 1926, Merope went to a Muggle Orphanage in London. Within an hour after giving birth, she died. Before she died, she named him Tom for his father, Marvolo for her father, and gave him his father’s surname, Riddle. The orphanage’s matrons described him as being, an odd baby that hardly cried. As he got older, the matrons said that they thought he bullied the other children, but it was very hard to catch him doing it. In the summer of 1938, Albus Dumbledore, came to the orphanage to inform Tom, that he was a wizard, and to invite him to Hogwarts.

At Hogwarts, all of the teachers loved him. In his fifth year, he was made the Slytherin House Prefect. Also that year, he discovered that he was the Heir of Slytherin. Later that year, he opened the Chamber of Secrets, which was created by Salazar Slytherin about a thousand years earlier. He controlled the basilisk, making it petrify many students, and kill one. When he learned that Hogwarts may be closed, he stopped and made a plan to assure that the school did not close. He blamed all the attacks on Rubeus Hagrid, a half-giant, who was two years younger. Hagrid was expelled, and Tom was given an Award for Services to the School.

A couple years later, in his seventh year, he was made Head Boy. Horace Slughorn, the Potions professor and head of Slytherin house, told him that he knew he would go far. Tom had already been working on that since his sixth year. In his sixth year, he went to Little Hangleton. There, he murdered his father and grandparents. Once again he put the blame on someone else. This time it was his uncle, Morfin Gaunt, who still lived in the little cottage. He stole Morfin’s ring, and turned it into a Horcrux. This would be the first of his seven Horcruxes. A Horcrux is an object that contains a portion of the creator’s soul. To create a Horcrux, you must do the supreme act of evil, murder.

After he graduated, he went on to work at Borgin and Burkes. Everyone was very surprised that such a clever and wonderful student didn’t go do something better. He worked at the shop, located in Knockturn Alley, for a while. Until one day, he was ordered to try and buy some items from an old witch, named Hepzibah Smith. While at Hepzibah’s home, she showed him a couple of her most prized possessions. One was Helga Hufflepuff’s cup, the other Salazar Slytherin’s locket. She told Tom about how she had to pay an arm and a leg for the locket, and Burke had bought it from some poor lady for only ten galleons. Tom saw the locket as being his. He wanted the cup too, since it had been one of the four founders’, and was said to have special powers. A few days after their meeting, Hepzibah was found dead. The locket and the cup were missing from her home. Tom had made, Hokey, Hepzibah’s house elf, poison her drink. Then, he stole the locket and cup. The locket and cup were later made into Horcruxes, also.

Soon everyone knew him as Lord Voldemort. Lord Voldemort was the name that he created for himself while still in school. Years later, there was a prophecy made about him and someone else. There were two people that it could have been. Either, the son of Lily and James Potter, Harry Potter, or the son of Frank and Alice Longbottom, Neville Longbottom. Lord Voldemort chose Harry. On the night of Halloween, in 1981, Lord Voldemort went to the Potter’s home. He killed James, then Lily, but was not able to kill Harry. When he tried, the Avada Kedavra backfired at him. Harry became, The Boy Who Lived.

Thirteen years later, when Harry was in is his fourth year at Hogwarts, the Tri-Wizard Tournament was happening at the school. Someone entered Harry in the tournament, even though it impossible for students under seventeen. The last task was basically a race to the Tri-Wizard cup. Whoever got to the cup first would win. Harry and Cedric Diggory tied to the cup. The cup transported them to the Little Hangleton Graveyard. Wormtail murdered Cedric, on Voldemort’s orders. He then got a gigantic cauldron, big enough for a man to sit in. He took a bone from Tom Sr.’s grave, blood from Harry, and his own arm, and made a potion. The potion brought Lord Voldemort back to life, with a whole new body. He was tall, and skeletally thin. His skin was as pale as snow. He had wide, red eyes, with cat-like, slit pupils. His nose was flat and snake-like, with slits for nostrils. He had hands that had such long, skinny fingers, that they were like huge spiders.

When Harry got back to Hogwarts, he told Dumbledore that Voldemort had returned. The only problem for him was that Cornelius Fudge, the Minister, did not believe him. He tried to make the Wizarding community believe that it was not true. This was very good for Voldemort. He spent the year working on getting the Prophecy. In Harry’s fifth year, Voldemort got Harry to get it for him. It was smashed during the battle. This forced Voldemort to come to the Ministry himself. After a long battle between Voldemort and Dumbledore, the Minister and others came. After that, it was impossible for Fudge to keep on pretending that Voldemort had not returned.

Shortly after, Lord Voldemort started causing problems for the rest of the Wizarding world again. He was back in control of the Dementors and the Giants. Like in the first war, he was using his Inferi again, too. The number of Death Eaters, his supporters, were rapidly growing, as well. Harry Potter was truly the Wizarding World's only hope. In 1998 they would be disappointed by the Chosen One, as the Battle of Hogwarts did not stop Lord Voldemort, but strengthened his hold over the Wizarding World. Years later, in 2010, all hope was destroyed, completely. The Dark Lord finally had succeeded in killing Harry Potter.

Lord Voldemort is now in control, all over the world. He only continues to gain more and more power by the day. It would seem as though there is no stopping him now; exactly what he had been going for when he started back in the early 1970s.[/size]
