One of the most talented wizards among Hogwarts professors (and some would say, among wizards everywhere), Albus Dumbledore tempers his power with patience and wisdom. He sees value and goodness in everyone, no matter how sinister or wretched they may seem.

Description

Despite the years that are accumulating on his features, Albus Dumbledore is a tall man who carries himself confidently. His greying hair is rests at his shoulders, replete withe glints of silver that likewise thread his still mostly dark beard. Often seen behind silver half moon glasses, his twinkling blue eyes are wise and kind with a shrewd intellect and gentle wisdom. He usually wears neat, practical robes of dark colours and arcane embroidery as well a dignified wizard's hat in coordinating style.

Background

Little is known of Dumbledore's early life, but his time at Hogwarts was exceptional. Frequently astounding his teachers, he was praised for doing things with a wand they had never seen before.

During his school years, Dumbledore won the Barnabus Finkley Prize for Exceptional Spell-Casting, became the British Youth Representative to the Wizengamot, and received the gold medal for Ground-Breaking Contribution to the International Alchemical Conference in Cairo.

Albus was made a prefect during his fifth year and was made Head Boy in his seventh year. He was considered the most brilliant student to have attended the school.

Few are aware of Dumbledore's past connection to the increasingly notorious Gellert Grindelwald, who was a boyhood friend of Albus'.

Relationships

Grindelwald

Grindelwald
Unbeknownst to most, Gellert Grindelwald was Albus Dumbledore's childhood friend. Known to nobody is Albus' love for Grindelwald. Though their ideologies diverged, driving a wedge between, a part of Albus' heart has always been devoted to Gellert.

Slughorn

Slughorn
Possibly Albus' closest friend among the Hogwarts faculty. Dumbledore and Slughorn are surprisingly similar in many respects, given the houses they head up. At the very least, they hold one another in high esteem.

Flint

Flint
Albus and Gervase were never friends, but Dumbledore wasn't particularly concerned about Flint until he announced the formation of the Magijugend. Now that Flint has been removed as Headmaster, Albus's stress level have reduced significantly.

Riddle

Riddle
Dumbledore took personal responsibility for Tom Riddle, seeing to it that the boy had a place at Hogwarts.
