Harry Potter' s glossary

Here there is a mini-glossary for the Harry Potter' fans:

Azkaban

Prison fortress where wizarding criminals are sent. Guarded day and night by the terrifying Dementors, who drain peace, hope and happiness out of any human who comes too close to them.
Hippogriff
Magical creature that has the front legs, wings and head of an eagle, and the body, hind legs and tail of a horse.
Dementor
Creature who feeds on the happy emotions of humans. Dementors are employed as guards at Azkaban. The kiss of a Dementor will suck out a human's soul, leaving an emotionless shell.

Umbridge, Dolores Jane
Senior Undersecretary to the Minister of Magic; Defense Against th
e Dark Arts teacher in Harry’s fifth year.
Malfoy, Draco
Harry's archenemy at Hogwarts. A thin boy with a pale, pointed face and a sneering expression. He has a bored, drawling voice and looks with contempt upon everyone else. Malfoy believes himself to be superior to Harry and hates Harry and all his friends. Malfoy is in Slytherin house.
