In response to this irreverent outburst, Hagrid gave a pig's tail to Vernon's son, Dudley Dursley. Before the end of the year, he also had the Inquisitorial Squad disbanded and reverted any damage they did. [28] In addition, Dumbledore also became very well-connected during his Hogwarts years, making notable friends such as Nicolas Flamel, Bathilda Bagshot, and Griselda Marchbanks, who marked him in his N.E.W.T.s for Charms and Transfiguration and later recalled that he did things with a wand that she had never seen before. Dumbledore also saw Grindelwald himself from the present. The last two Fantastic Beasts movies can develop Aurelius Dumbledore's character, but the creators must tread lightly: if Aberforth and Credence becomes too big a story (and if Credence survives the fifth movie), the Harry Potter canon will definitely suffer a negative impact. Even a slight exertion of Dumbledore's serious side and anger could intimidate the likes of Harry Potter, and even the Minister of Magic Cornelius Fudge, evidenced when they both were shocked when Dumbledore made it clear quite firmly that Hagrid did not open the Chamber of Secrets, despite Dumbledore not openly showing anger.

Because young Riddle was a ward of the state and she the custodian of the institution at which he lived rather than the boy's legal guardian, however, Albus were purposefully vague in his reasons for wanting to meet the boy. [64], Having sensed his underlying decency of instinct despite his disregard for the school rules and, more importantly, fully recongised that there had been no malintent on his part when he had triggered the safeguards of the vaults, having done so on accident, Dumbledore was very lenient with the boy.

Albus was one of the most powerful wizards in the entire world, and his magical skill made him the only wizard that Voldemort feared.
