nighy
in "order of the phoenix", fudge orchestrates a vicious smear campaign through the "daily prophet" to present dumbledore as a senile old fool (even though he was constantly asking for dumbledore's advice in his early days of being minister for magic) and harry as an unstable, attention-seeking liar. he also passes a law allowing him to place dolores umbridge, his senior undersecretary, as a teacher at hogwarts. he then appoints umbridge as hogwarts' "high inquisitor", with the power to inspect and sack teachers, and ultimately dumbledore's successor as headmaster, which gives her (and by extension, fudge himself) primary control of how hogwarts is managed. fudge is concerned that dumbledore is a threat to his power and that he is planning to train the hogwarts students to overthrow the ministry. after voldemort appears in the ministry of magic at the battle of the department of mysteries, fudge finally admits that voldemort has returned, and is sacked in disgrace from his position of minister for magic after the wizarding community calls for his resignation and is replaced by rufus scrimgeour, though he stays on as an advisor in "half-blood prince". before his resignation, he makes several attempts to have dumbledore arrange a meeting between himself and harry so that harry can lie on fudge's behalf and make it look as though the ministry is winning the war, but dumbledore refuses, knowing how ridiculous harry would find the idea. fudge is last mentioned in the series as one of the attendees at dumbledore's funeral; his fate during voldemort's takeover of the ministry during the following year is unknown.

in the final book, voldemort flies unsupported, something that amazes those who see it. voldemort, like his ancestral family, the gaunts, is a parselmouth, meaning he can converse with serpents. this skill was inherited from his ancestor, salazar slytherin. the gaunt family speak parseltongue among themselves. this highly unusual trait may be preserved through inbreeding, a practice employed by the gaunt family to maintain their blood's purity. when voldemort attempts to kill harry his ability to speak parseltongue is passed to harry through the small bit of the former's soul. after that bit of soul is destroyed, harry loses this ability. in a flashback in the sixth novel, voldemort boasts to dumbledore during a job interview that he has "pushed the boundaries of magic farther than they had ever before". dumbledore states that voldemort's knowledge of magic is more extensive than any wizard alive and that even dumbledore's most powerful protective spells and charms would likely be insufficient if voldemort returned to full power. dumbledore also said that voldemort was probably the most brilliant student hogwarts has ever seen. although voldemort remains highly accomplished and prodigious in skill, he is enormously lacking and highly inept in the most powerful magic, love. this inability to love and trust others proves to be voldemort's greatest weakness in the series. voldemort initially voices scepticism that his own magic might not be the most powerful, but upon returning to power, he admits to his death eaters that he had overlooked the ancient and powerful magic which lily potter invoked and that would protect harry from harm.
