@@Kaitybardot Unsure exactly what you're asking, but it's an in-universe fact that wizards can choose to become a ghost when they die. Their existence doesn't have anything to do with horcruxes. Furthermore, when Voldemort was defeated and turned into a ghost-like form, he said that he was *less* than a ghost.

Personal take: the veil removes a soul regardless of the container kind of like a soul magnet. Therfore if any horcrux had been thrown into the veil the container would be destroyed if living... but remain intact if not and also no longer a horcrux with the soul fragment removed. The soul fragment itself would be destroyed and returning the object to its original state. Voldemorts soul being so maimed would never pass on at all. My favourite detail about the horcruxes is that they are not just items of grandure there are 1000s of items riddle could have chose. He chose items that in themselves ensure their own survival and pose no question as to its longevity. The founders relics would be highly sort after items but the people who could get hold of them would protect them like hepzibah smith did ensuring their own safety. The items are already over 900 years old when riddle gets hold of them posing the idea that nobody would question their longevity unlike the diary where it was curious that a 50 year old muggle diary was intact an unused. He would have been aware of the few ways to destroy a horcrux but nobody in their right mind would get their hands on a founder relic and destroy it even if it wasn't a horcrux.

I imagine Voldemort's limbo state to be having to listen to Dumbledore prattling on for eternity and calling him Tom, reminiscing all the while about his time as a student and what a gifted young wizard he was.

I believe the Veil is *absolutely* deadly enough to qualify as a horcrux destroyer. It destroys your body on the most fundamental level and transfers your soul to the great beyond. So if you throw a physical object in there, that object will undoubtedly be rendered "beyond repair", which is the condition for the destruction of a horcrux (sans Harry under special circumstances, where it's the act of the Killing Curse severing the soul's connection to the body that kills the bit of Voldemort inside). Which means if you throw Voldy in there before all his 'cruxes are gone, it should reduce him to the same lesser mean misty existence as his rebounding curse after attacking Harry in '81, but afterwards, his soul is still mangled enough to stick him in Limbo. Thoughts? Edit: I should correct myself on how the killing curse works, cuz clearly it does more than just remove your soul - that's what the dementor's kiss does, and you're still able to live on as an empty thoughtless husk after that one. So clearly it has to destroy your body's ability to do body things, like it just shuts down your brain on the spot or destroys an important part of it. But if so, how is Harry able to come back from Limbo? He shouldn't even have a viable living body left for his soul to inhabit anymore. So either the Killing Curse doesn't really irreversibly destroy you on the spot but rather just shuts down all processes in your brain, in which case Harry is able to come back solely because he has a stronger soul tether than Voldy, or the killing curse does simply remove the soul itself entirely and it's the dementor's kiss that doesn't.

@@noblegas8485 i think there would be one mayor caveat to voldys soul being preserved by the horcruxes... could he escape from the other side of the veil in this form? i could imagine him getting thrown through the veil with horcruxes still intact would be a fate even worse than eternal limbo. picture this: seven tethers from seven horcruxes extend from his soul. normally they would prevent the soul from getting pulled to the afterlife (the other side of the veil) upon death. btw a similar thing can happen naturally to your "intact" soul via unresolved matters, which is how you get a ghost.( voldy himself said he was less than a ghost, a soul that did not pass on to the afterlife and condensed into shape, but in his case not an "entire/intact" soul. now "force" his prime soul to be in the afterlife via the only known (one way ) passage to the afterlife aka the veil. the passage through the veil would split his soul from his body and disintegrate the body. normally the soul would disperse in the afterlife with only the resurrection stone being capable of condensing enough to conjure it back into shape at the edge of the afterlife, but still behind the (metaphorical in this case) veil. not so much with voldy: the MULTIPLE tethers on his soul might be strong enough to keep his soul from dispersing even on the other side of the veil. the tethers of his horcruxes reaching through the veil and wrapping around the remnants of his prime soul, not allowing it to disperse, but still not capable from pulling it back through the one way ticket of the veil. his soul essentially chained to the edge of the afterlife pulled against the veil for eternity or until all (or maybe just enough) tethers are cut by destroying the howcruxes. i imagine him standing there on the other side of the veil in the ministry of magic, silvery chains extending from the veil and wrapping around his "body" where the tethers from the horcruxes reach in through the veil. unable to move more than a couple of feet from the veil but also not able to step back through it into life (or the a bit more humiliating version: he is chained face first against the veil, head smushed against the border to life and cant even move an inch because the tethers pull so strong in the direction of life but it just doesn't work...)

It would never happen as we all know all of them are perfectly capable of loving someone and such people don't put their toddler nephew into an orphanage. The two main reasons why they treat Harry as they do are the fact they are afraid of anything magic - for good reason, it killed their family members and they have no way of protecting themselves against magic users - and the fact Harry is a horcrux. Not just a random horcrux, he is a horcrux of the man that killed their family members. Hogwards do somehow protect against the evil coming from a horcrux, but muggles outside have no protection. Petunia, Dudley and to a lesser level Vernon hold a record for people who spent the most time in close physical contact with a horcrux.

In my mind, and this is why three forbidden curses are forbidden, it is about how the magic work in the Potterverse. Some people are born with ability to do magic and we can see them Harry as child accidentally do magic. So witches and wizards learn to focus their magic using certain words and channeling it through wands. Now, a wizard could kill someone using fire or levitating a statue on some one or summoning swords out of thin air. But what avada kedavra does is using one's magic to complitely over ride victims will and ability to live. When Harry tried to use cruciatus curse Bellatrix said that he needs to really mean it. It's likely something like that, you need to actually want to and focus your being to want someone to die. That's why those three are forbidden, not only is it nasty for magic folk but also it is to do with over stepping on other persons self rights or whatever the english word is. Also also, that shows how evil Voldemort was, to able to kill that easily. Seeing everyone so much beneath him that he could just will them to die. So the wands are not like guns, not anyone can just pick them up and say the words and just happens, we saw this in the books. You need to be born with magic, you need to be strong in it, know what you want and have the focus. The spell used tells a lot about the caster. The ease what Voldemort used that curse shows how evil and horrible his mind was. It's not just his killings he did, not just the reasoning he claimed to do them. The method itself shows how he was. But that's just my magical theory.

No. Voldemort at no age could develop remorse. This is not just because of his personality. Actually, they made a video, where it is suggested that when Tom Riddle Sr. left Merope, she was depressed and started to develop an Obscurus. She would be pregnant with Voldemort at the time, and a little bit of the Obscurus would have bound itself to Voldemort. Since an Obscurus just wants destruction, Voldemort would be just like that. Full of want for destruction without any remorse. It also explains why Merope dies an hour after giving birth to Voldemort. I mean, if she died during the delivery fine, but it could be that an hour after giving birth the Obscurus just killed her. Since Voldemort had the Obscurus ever since he was born, he could never be remorseful.

The first split of his soul would be half his soul, the second would be half of a half. The third would be half of quarter and fourth would be half of an eighth. Each split would be a smaller fraction of the soul and less of him. Tom Riddle should have been the strongest or most of his divided self and the most capable to restore the most of him.

Did the book actually state the soul would be split in half, or equal proportion? Since in my culture people are said to have 7 emotions and 6 desires. Also "soul" itself for human is considered 3 parts of 魂(soul) and 7 parts of 魄(spirit? Could not find a direct translation). Anything after the 6th split would be weaker than any previous ones, including the still living Voldy.

I think technically it could have killed the human body of Voldemort if he happened to be in that room during that battle and fell through it, but it wouldn't kill the pieces that were in items around the country so he wouldn't be gone for good. His followers might be able to find the other pieces and bring him back, but would it be able to kill that individual piece? Or you know if the kids were to bring all the pieces back to that room and just yeet them through there maybe

I think that Voldemort would basically become TSA for the afterlife. Life is the normal everyday, Limbo is the Airport, and the Afterlife/Great Beyond is like a vacation. So I could see Voldemort asking people for their names, then asking them to please remove a physical form to step through the soul detector. And then having to wish everyone a pleasant day, while the masses shout at him to hurry it up because they are very busy people and they haven't got all day!

Now that’s an interesting character concept, someone anchored to both life and death and how they traverse their life and world.

A NEWT-level Muggle Studies class for eternity seems like a fitting limbo for Voldy. :)

This video was awesome guys! Love your channel!

There was actually some really nice ambiguity about if Sirius was truly "dead" and if his soul passed on. But JK crushed all the previous subtly and mystery by having his soul show up with the stone in book 7.

I didn't think that Voldy would be stuck in limbo following the 'death' of all his horcruxes. I had the impression that his limbo was because at the time some of his soul was on each side. But I do think that if all of him was eventually killed then it would still be torture because none of the pieces of soul are intact, sort of like having feeling in each chopped up section forever.

How would the marauders map work if you went back in time? Like if they checked the map while hermione was in two classes at once would she be on it twice.

The first horcrux has more of his soul than any of the other horcruxes. The last piece in his regenerated body is the smallest, weakest soul fragment because of all the times it was torn in half to make horcruxes. So I could see the first, the diary, having more power than any other piece of Voldenmort's soul, and also actually being the closest to a normal soul, it had the most potential of regenerating Voldemort.

@RancorSnp

Yeah, I always really disliked the idea of the diary being special due to being a Diary. It makes the most sense to me that the thing that makes the diary special, is simply the fact it was the first and has the most, the purest soul out of every item. I believe it makes sense for a horkrux, no matter what item it is to be a sort of a "snapshot" of the person at the time, and it doing what it can to find a soul to use in order to manifest said snapshot into the world of the living. Being protected from death doesn't really have much value if all it does is make you less than a ghost for the eternity. Buuuut if the purpose of the Horcrux is to manifest the person as they were in life - then they can seek out and bring back the original soul to life. Other Horcruxes also try to communicate with people nearby, they are just not as strong as the diary.

Personal theory, I think Flamel is related to the Peverell brothers. They all deal so much with defeating death it just makes sense. Also if the mirror of erised was made by the Peverell brothers it's kinda poetic it would be used to protect the stone

You guys should do a theory on the different types of Voldemort's soul that exist in each horcrux. Because I do not think that one seventh of his soul would exists in each horcrux. It doesn't say that you cut off a piece of your soul when you commit murder, but rather that you "split" your soul, and I believe it even says "in two". This would mean that the diary was actually be the most complete version of Voldemort soul, and Voldemort prime would be the smallest amount of his soul.

@SgtSupaman

10 ай бұрын

"In two" doesn't necessarily mean "in half", since any sized portion would still make two separate pieces. I would think it is just a similarly small piece every time, such that the "prime" version would always be the largest portion (unless, perhaps, it was torn some hundreds of times). Then again, it all raises the question of how a soul can be quantified anyway. It may be that there is no such consideration when a soul is torn. The soul is weakened (for all existing instances, as some form of a connection clearly still exists between them all) by the damage of tearing apart, but not lessened in size or anything. After all, we know the "prime" version was destroyed by a rebounded killing spell, but that same version was the one that returned (none of his horcruxes spawned a soul to replace him, since all the horcruxes he created prior to that still held their pieces). So the pieces are just anchors and not souls in and of themselves (though the diary one gets its own memories and experiences due entirely to the magic of the diary itself).

But rather just that it would be half of his original soul, and the next one would only be a quarter of his original since it is only half of the half, and so on. Also, there are multiple reasons that his "prime" soul was the one that became "him" again. One is that it's the only one that wasn't bound to something. There was no way for the soul in the horcruxes to leave, and no one knew about them, so it makes sense they weren't used. Also, it's explained that a horcrux is kind of the opposite of a human with a soul, so that could be why when they were destroyed they didn't behave the same way as when Voldemort was hit with the rebounding avada kedavra. It's also possible that they did behave the same way. That when they were destroyed the piece of soul became the same ephemeral thing as we saw in the philosophers stone, but just like the 10 years before the first book, they were just floating aimlessly, unable to "do" anything, but still anchored to "this side of the veil", then with the final death of Voldemort's body, there was no more soul anchored to this side, and all the pieces went to limbo. Also, while it's possible that the diary was basically just a "picture" and a memory, it's also possible that it was the representation of the 16yr old version of Voldemort's soul, and that all of the horcruxes could have basically done the same thing as snapshots of the soul that was placed in them. After all, if Voldemort had returned in the chamber of secrets, I see no reason why that would have been any different than what happened in the goblet of fire, just with a younger Voldemort, but it would have still been Voldemort.

Suggestion what if Harry was a full Horcrux. Edit: sorry was typing quick love the channel and your interpretations of what if’s Edit Again: 15:10 He’s sat next to Betelgeuse desperately trying to keep him from stealing his ticket.

Strange question...but what happened to voldemorts body after trying to kill baby harry? Avada Kedavra doesn’t damage the body right? So his body would still be lying there. Do you think he was buried or cremated? Or do you think they locked his body away in a vault somewhere?

I hate that the books don't give any clues about that. I like to imagine Pettigrew sneaking Voldemort's wand (and eventually hiding it at the Burrow), but nothing is ever said about his body. On the one hand, why would anyone think Voldemort was dead without a body being found? However, I think that if his body was in the house, no one would've thought he was still out there. It baffles me when I think about it.

I don't know, as it is never actually mentioned, and it's not like it would be easy to miss someone as pale as him near Harry. Hagrid probably would have seen it if it was there

Video idea: What if Cornelius Fudge had listened to Dumbledore at the end of Goblet of Fire?

I could have sworn you already did this video. the conclusion was "the piece of soul that traveled through would die, but Voldy could be reconstructed from his fragments."

"this is madness" "No, THIS IS POTTER!" *kicks moldywarts through the veil

My best guess would be that Voldemort Prime would be destroyed but another horcrux would just spit out his soul fragment to take on his semi-ghost form thing he did for a while. After all why else would they need to destroy the horcuxes first?

I don't think that's how it works, when he was killed when Harry was a baby all his horcruxes are still exist. They literally act as an anchor keeping his soul (or what's left) on this plane of existence until he can regain a physical form for himself

See now I'm just imagining Harry and Co piling all the Horcruxes into a duffel bag and then taking that down to the Department of Mysteries and just *yeeting* it through the veil. Mission Accomplished!

Hey, big fan of your work! I would love to see your theory for why is Peeves scared of/listens to Bloody Baron. Because we never get an explanation and it doesn’t seem to me like he’s just scared for no reason other than that he’s scary looking.

8:06 My theory is that if Voldemort did that, when harry destroys the fifth horcux, he wold we stuck inside of limbo since he was anchored tpo both sides. He would be stuck there until somebody destroys his remaining horcruxes, which obviously nobody was going to do.

The Tom's limbo would be an ever ending loop of revisiting his orphanage - the very day his mother left him there. Every single time he will try to see the face of his mother and start any discussion with her. But every single time he'll be slowed by the "shadows" od those he killed and after every exhausting fight, in the moment he was about to face his mother, he would be thrown back to the very beginning.

Off topic question. ---What happens to the marauders map after the battle? Does it automatically update when the castle changes? Does the castle get restored to its original state?

Both diary and the locket have also contained some part of Voldermort's self - especially diary

That’s a theory actually. Cadmus had first created the Veil to try to bring his lover back. But his intention failed and he created a one-way portal to death. After that, he created the Resurrection Stone

It would be fun to see if he passed through but his soul was anchored to life, because he would be in the afterlife but trying to get back to life. It would just be another place he’d be stuck.

14:40 have you guys done a video on the portraits and the difference between them and a horcrux? Soul vs. consciousness and the ramifications of giving up your soul vs. your essence or if there is even a difference?

Voldemort sits in silence, playing solitaire with a found deck of cards. As others pass through limbo, he tries to recruit them. Some of his followers, some of his adversaries. But they all shun him as they board the train to "beyond". He eventually becomes a myth of limbo to the living, and a funny attraction in limbo, when wizards arrive to find the myth true.

Voldemort's limbo is just him constantly having to do meet-and-greets with curious muggles

Theory idea-what if Harry ran through the veil after Sirius? How would that effect the rest of the story?

@abraham2172

Harry dies, Voldemort rebuilds his reign of terror and lives on forever, according to the prophecy.

I think that the portal is more like a portal to the afterlife. It transports your soul to the afterlife while leaving your body somewhere else (the backrooms?) If voldy were to fall into the veil, he would probably we transported to the afterlife in spite of his horcruxes, similarly to how an anchor probably wounldnt work if someone were to teleport the boat.

Hey SCB, since you do Disney theories - and occasionally Netflix - I was wondering if you could check out Miraculous Ladybug, maybe do a theory or two on the show? I love the theory that Adrien is actually a Sentimonster created by his mother.

Finally... I've been waiting for this

Way more nefarious option: if his horcrux survives the trip to the afterlife (think: vanishing cabinet), does it anchor Voldy to life? It could be difficult getting someone over there to destroy it with the proper tooling.

As a member of the relevant department: Yes it could kill him and he'd never be able to come back, not even with a Horcrux.

It may not be the best time of year, but do a video connecting Harry Potter to Holy Week (Stone = Palm Sunday, Hallows = Easter, Saturday, etc)

At the intro chime but my vote before hearing you say anything is "the part of voldy that goes into the vail dies and is gone but the remaining horcrux could reform him like the dairy almost did in year 2

Also it may be that the diary soul had the largest portion of his soul of all the Horcruxes. Half of his soul was in the diary which is why it was so powerful. Every subsequent Horcrux got an exponentially lesser part of his soul as ¼, ⅛, etc.

My idea for Limbo is a bit more literal and Voldemort is just stuck in an endless loop of a line playing limbo, and trying to see how low he can go.

i just finished the last video i was watching i got a notification for this video and my brain was just like”YASS NEW VIDEO TO WATCH”

I actually was wandering this a few days ago

Voldemort’s Limbo would be living as a completely and utterly normal muggle.

From another SCB Video: The resurrection stone's effect is like Crucio on the soul's resurrected. (Soul out of place). The Horcruxes are pieces of soul out of place. Voldy's soul fragments are all in a constant state of crucio.

The SCBs are always out here asking the most fascinating questions of the Wizarding World. Questions I always feel like need answering as soon as they're proposed. Really satisfying stuff all around.

I was thinking about this before you bright it up during the video, but rather than a portrait wouldn’t the diary be more similar to a Pensive?

Come back to the armpit of ca! A few course around (not all are listed) but more importantly cheap with great food around.

He has to teach Hufflepuffs muggle studies forever.

Bro had to be so tired from switching sides of the room every sentence 💀

He wouldn't have immediately returned to his body, though. Getting hit with a killing curse is exactly what happened when he attacked infant Harry. His body was destroyed, but his soul lived on for over a decade, requiring someone else's help to regain his body.

Limbo is waiting for a bus or train that just never ends up showing up and you’re late for wherever you’re supposed to be.

I think Limbo for Voldemort looks all white like Kings Cross station in the last film, but it’s the orphanage he grew up in, and he has to listen to his laugh for eternity

Awesome as always guys i think voldemort is doomed to wait forever for the SCB video

I’m not even lying I would pay for you guys to read the books your way with the voices and everything I would do anything you guys make me enjoy Harry Potter more than when I read or watch it

I'm guessing the magical paintings are like an inverse horcrux. They anchor a version of the body into a physical object. The diary is similar, but happens to be both a horcrux AND an inverse horcrux at the same time.

"Ayo Volde, catch!" *Throws it through the veil*

I also think that the reason the diary seems like the most powerful horcrux is because its the first, so it has half of voldemorts soul in it. As he makes more horcruxes, he's splitting the soul he has left in half so the second one he makes would only have 1/4 of his whole soul in it, etc.

@brolytriplethreat

I don't think it works quite as an even split, but also I think in general the diary is special because while the ones connected to him and his Slytherin heritage feel stronger, the diary is special in the sense that it is _his_. Everything about it was set up by him. So all of its powers are specifically designed. It was also intended to open the Chamber, which obviously requires some level of awareness. Ultimately, it is a reflection of his memories as well as his soul, and is able to feed off those who write in it as well to grow stronger. The other Horcruxes were intended to just...exist, but the diary had a _purpose._

Morphin waiting for Voldemort in Limbo saying "I got ya nosey" over and over again

So I have a 2 part question. 1: Does a horcrux get "used" when the creators physical form dies. 2: If so what horcrux was used when good ol' voldy "died" killing Harry?

No, it doesnt get used. A horcrux is portrayed as an "anchor" of sorts. Does an anchor get used when you use it to stop a ship from moving?

Limbo is like waiting at a bus stop which has been discontinued. And you can't use the bench because of an eternally comatose hobo is sleeping on it

I think limbo is when ur mom makes u go to Costco with her and says you will only spend like 20 mins and you end up spending like 3 or 4 hours. Especially when she stands there deciding whether she what type of thing to get for like 10 minutes and then ends up saying she’s not going to buy it.

A fun thought is. What if all of the horcruxes were diaries? And all of them successfully came back to life. Would there be 7 Voldys walking around? Because that sounds like the start of a good sitcom. “The Voldys”

Veil brings you to the afterlife. Voldy can't go to the afterlife. Clearly the answer is that it makes a funny "Bonk!" noise and he bounces back, growing a cartoonishly large bump on his head.

That's really nice AI art of Voldy at the DMV.

Well, the "waiting for his number to be called" bit made me picture Oldy Voldy sitting in the afterlife's waiting room from Beetlejuice, so that's what I'm choosing to go with. Just being annoyed by Beetlejuice for eternity. It's extra funny if you imagine the witch doctor there shrinking his head, too.

I think the DMV analogy is perfect. The only thing I would add is needing to pee, but not being able to find a bathroom.
