The women of Harry Potter are some of the best around, they are badass witches that fight until the end, but still have a caring heart. Here, I present my top six witches from the wizarding world of Harry Potter. Oh, and possible spoilers ahead, read if you dare.
1) Madam Pomfrey
Madam Pomfrey, the badass school nurse that didn’t take shit from anyone. While I’m drawn to her because her occupation, I love her even more because she stands for her patients needs. No matter who is in her way, they better get out quickly or face her wrath. She even shooed away Professor Dumbledore so her patient could rest.
2) Lily Potter
There would be no Harry Potter story if it were not for Lily’s love. She knew she had something very precious to protect, her son. Then and there she stood up to the most powerful dark wizard to save her son’s life, and I believe that’s something to recognize.
3) Minerva Mcgonagall
Oh, what can I say about Minerva other than she is absolutely fabulous. She is one of the many motherly figures Harry has in his life. She is stern yet incredibly caring for those close to her. Also, she wasn’t afraid to get sassy when she needed to.
4) Fleur Delacour
Many people will wonder why I include Fleur Delacour on this list, and to those people, I say go read the books again. Fleur was a Triwizard champion; she fought through the tasks just as the others did. Then she took on another challenge, becoming Molly Weasley’s daughter in law. Molly was far too harsh on her, but she came to be loved by the family when proving her love for Bill when he was attacked.
5) Nymphadora Tonks
Have you even given birth to a baby and then a week later went and fought in a wizarding war? No? I didn’t think so, please step aside. Nymphadora Tonks is what we all aspire to be, brave, smart, and sassy all wrapped up in one. She was a talented auror under the instruction of Alastor Moody and went on to sacrifice herself for a better world for her son.
6) Molly Weasley
Yet another one of Harry’s mother figures in the story. Molly gave Harry the love he had never received in the Dursley home and I’m sure made Lily cry tears of joy that her son was taken care of. Oh, and she killed Bellatrix, so she’s pretty hardcore.
