Minor Ravenclaws

(Redirected from Terry Boot)

The following are minor characters from the Harry Potter series in Ravenclaw House. The Ravenclaw characters Cho Chang, Marietta Edgecombe, and Luna Lovegood have their own articles.

Terry Boot

Terry Boot is in Harry's year, and is friends with Michael Corner and Anthony Goldstein. He also became a member of Dumbledore's Army. Terry was rather impressed by Hermione Granger's ability to do the N.E.W.T.-level Protean Charm, and questioned why she had been sorted into Gryffindor and not Ravenclaw. Aboard the Hogwarts Express at the end of the school year, Terry is one of the students who assists Harry Potter when Draco Malfoy and his friends attempt to ambush him.

Terry was present at the Dueling Club with Lockhart in his second year and ended up with a bloody nose. At the initial meeting for Dumbledore's Army Terry reveals that he was in Dumbledore's office the previous year, and that a portrait had told him that Harry Potter had slayed a Basilisk with the sword in the office. Harry Potter confirmed this as true, much to the group's amazement.

In one of the schoolbooks J. K. Rowling wrote for the Comic Relief charity, Terry's name can be seen as one of the students who previously checked out Quidditch Through the Ages from the Hogwarts Library. His name and blood lineage can also be seen in the J. K. Rowling interview special "Harry Potter and Me".

Penelope Clearwater

Harry Potter character
Penelope Clearwater
Gender Female
Hair colour Black
Eye colour Unknown
House Ravenclaw
Blood 'purity' Muggle-Born
Loyalty Unknown
Film portrayer Gemma Padley
First appearance Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets

Penelope "Penny" Clearwater maker her first appearance in Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets when Harry and Ron run into her while sneaking around Hogwarts disguised as Gregory Goyle and Vincent Crabbe. She is described as a black-haired Ravenclaw prefect, although she is not specifically identified until later in the book after she and Hermione Granger are Petrified by the monster roaming the school.


It is later inferred that Penelope was wandering the halls the night Harry met her in order to meet with her secret boyfriend, Percy Weasley, a Gryffindor prefect.

Penelope Clearwater was briefly seen in the second movie when Nearly Headless Nick greets her and Percy in a hallway, addressing her as "Miss Clearwater." Penelope was played by Gemma Padley for this scene.

Michael Corner

Harry Potter character
Michael Corner
Gender Male
Hair colour Unknown (dark)
Eye colour Unknown
House Ravenclaw
Blood 'purity' Unknown
Loyalty Dumbledore's Army
Film portrayer None
First appearance Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix

Michael Corner is best known as Ginny Weasley's boyfriend. Ginny met Michael at the Yule Ball and began dating him at the end of Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. Note that he didn't actually appear in The Goblet of Fire and this information was explained only in the fifth book. Michael has dark hair and is in Ravenclaw. It is perhaps because of his relationship with Ginny that he joined Dumbledore's Army.

Michael is portrayed as being a bit dimwitted. For instance, when he was dueling Ginny during a D.A. meeting, he didn't hit her, though it is not clear whether he did this because he didn't know the spell or simply because he didn't want to curse his girlfriend. Even Ginny refers to Michael as a fool, though not in front of him.


When Dolores Umbridge knocked Harry off the Gryffindor Quidditch team, he was replaced by Ginny. After Gryffindor beat Ravenclaw in the final Quidditch match of the year, Michael wasn't pleased so Ginny dumped him. Michael instead began dating the Seeker from his own team; Cho Chang. Ginny for her part claims to have shifted her romantic interest to Dean Thomas, but it is not known if this is actually true, or if she said it simply to get a rise out of her brother Ron.

It is generally believed that Michael is in Harry's year, rather than Ginny's. For example, he couldn't have attended the Yule Ball without an older date. Also, one person mentioned as his friend, Terry Boot, is known to be in Harry's year, and it doesn't seem likely that Cho Chang would date someone two years younger than herself.

Roger Davies

Blood 'purity' Unknown
Loyalty Unknown
Film portrayer None
First appearance Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire

Roger Davies is the captain, and a Chaser, for the Ravenclaw Quidditch team. He had the envious fortune of going to the Yule Ball with Fleur Delacour, though he was too busy staring at her to enjoy the experience.

Roger asked his Seeker, Cho Chang, to go out with him the following year, but she turned him down in favor of Gryffindor's former Seeker, Harry Potter. Roger and his date ended up in the same tea shop as Harry and Cho. Cho tried to use Roger's offer to her to make Harry jealous.

Anthony Goldstein

Anthony Goldstein is in Harry's year, and is friends with Michael Corner and Terry Boot. He was also a member of Dumbledore's Army. In Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, Anthony, along with Padma Patil, became a prefect for Ravenclaw.

Harry Potter character
Padma Patil

House Ravenclaw
Blood 'purity' Unknown
Loyalty Dumbledore's Army
Film portrayer Afshan Azad

Padma Patil is the identical twin sister of Parvati Patil, one of Harry's classmates in Gryffindor. Padma, however, was sorted into Ravenclaw. In Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, she attended the Yule Ball with Ron Weasley at the urging of Parvati—Harry's date—when he begged her to find a date for Ron. Their classmate Dean Thomas marvels that Harry and Ron managed to go to the dance with the two best looking girls in their year, a sentiment shared by Dean's friend Seamus Finnigan.

In Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, Padma became a prefect for Ravenclaw. She also joined Dumbledore's Army.
