Description

Rubeus Hagrid, a half-giant, was expelled from school after being falsely accused of opening the Chamber of Secrets, but Dumbledore retained him as Keeper of Keys and Grounds. He later escorted baby Harry on a flying motorbike, became Professor of Care of Magical Creatures, and was wrongfully imprisoned in Azkaban during the Chamber incident before being acquitted. In the Second Wizarding War, he joined the Order of the Phoenix, helped escort Harry in the "Seven Potters" mission, participated in the final battle, and carried Harry back from the Forbidden Forest. He continued teaching after the war, watching over the magical creatures—and students—at Hogwarts.
