Severus Snape
Severus Snape is the Potions Master at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and
Wizardry. He has long, greasy black hair, a sallow face, black, cold, empty eyes, crooked, yellowish teeth, and a hooked nose.
He loathes Harry, probably because James, Sirius, and Remus were always picking on him (James and Sirius more than
Remus) when they were in school together. He also may dislike Harry so much because he stripped Voldemort of his powers, although
we are not sure whether on not Snape is still on the Death Eaters' sides, on the Order's side, or a double-agent. Snape is
also half-blood, although he pretends he is pure-blood, most likely because, as we could see from Harry's Occlumency lessons
in OOTP, his father abused him (his father was the Muggle, and Snape wanted to have as little relation to him as possible,
therefore pretending he was pure-blood). He also dubbed himself the Half-Blood Prince, seeing as how he is half-blood,
even if he only admits it when no one knows that it is him, and his mother's maiden name was Prince (once again, he refers
to his mother, not his father). If someone was to really stop and think about it, Snape is a lot like Voldemort.
They both had witch mothers and Muggle fathers, who hurt them in some way (abuse or abandonment, take your pick). They both
gave themselves nicknames of power (Lord Voldemort, Half Blood Prince). They both applied for the Defense Against the Dark
Arts Job (and were turned down numerous times), both had black hair, both supported the Dark Side (a-duh...). Think about
it, people. That's all I'm saying....
