The Death Eaters waiting outside Privet Drive implies a latent awareness of Harry’s blood protection from his mother. If he lost his body again, he’d need to make sure he had someone desperately loyal to bring him back: His chosen heir. In the past, Voldemort had to wait in the shadows for the pitiful Peter Pettigrew to join him twelve years after the loss of his body. The fan theory proposes that Delphi’s purpose to Death Eaters is that former pure-blood elitists will always be seeking the next Dark Lord, but I think it’s worth acknowledging Voldemort’s ultimate goal: immortality. Delphi’s physical appearance and particularly extraordinary powers are thought to be the result of Veela blood. If magic can be passed on genetically after skipping several generations, there’s no reason why the magic of Parseltongue cannot do the same. It’s worth noting that the only one of Isolt Sayre’s daughters to inherit her Parseltongue abilities did not marry, but the fan continues to have a response at the ready through the magic of Muggle-borns. Even when he had the Elder Wand, it rebelled against him as he did not win it himself. Voldemort was a seeker of the Deathly Hallows and artifacts from the founders, so Slytherin’s powerful wand would certainly be enough draw for him to visit. Even if she were only a baby, Voldemort was willing to believe that Harry Potter could be a threat at a year old, so it’s entirely plausible he could believe Delphi would be an asset to his cause.Īs for why Voldemort would be near Ilvermorny, this theory has an answer for that too. As an heir of Slytherin and a Parselmouth, she would’ve been of interest to Voldemort. Delphi could have descended from the American branch of the Gaunt family, the family of Ilvermorny founder Isolt Sayre. Consequently, some fans have sought alternative answers.Ĭould Delphi be the missing link between Fantastic Beasts and Cursed Child?Ī fan theory proposes the following: Delphi believed she was Voldemort’s daughter, but their blood relations were far more distant than that. Delphi, an original character from Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, has a background which raises many questions about her compatibility with Harry Potter series. It’s always difficult to tie in new characters to the ones existing in canon, so accepting their origin stories often means suspending disbelief. But the focus of most ire seems to be directed less at the original characters than it does at one particular new one. Reviews have run the gamut from over the top praise to fan fueled enraged screeds denouncing its very existence. Harry Potter and the Cursed Child has been out now for almost a couple of weeks, and with millions sold, that means there are millions of Potter fans with millions of opinions on the book.
