		Blood purity is a central notion in the fictional Harry Potter cycle.
		Some wizards view blood purity as a measure of a wizard's magical ability, displaying prejudice and discrimination towards wizards that are not "pure-blood".

		It is strongly implied in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix that pure-blood families inbred with each other, somewhat like traditional European nobility (making the wizarding conflict comparable to the First World War, in which the royalty of opposing nations were related to each other, and which toppled most of them from power).

		As this is the house to which Harry Potter belongs, its private quarters are the only ones that have been described in any detail (though Slytherin's common room was described briefly in Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets), and its members tend to get the most attention.
		Harry and his fellow Gryffindors tend to win in a lot of circumstances which, when viewed from a Slytherin's point of view, may be considered unfair.
		In previous drafts of Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, J.K. Rowling had written a character named Mafalda, a young cousin of the Weasleys who was to have been Sorted into Slytherin (and who was apparently the child of a muggle and a Squib accountant living as a muggle).

		But in the book, he was after James Potter (I think) and then went for Harry, but Lily protected him, Voldie told her to get out of the way, he was after Harry...
		That's it! Because the Potter line is a descendant of Godric Griffindor's, and voldie may have just figured it out, so he went to end the line, that's why he didn't want to kill Lily...
		But in the POA, they find out that "Voldemort's next target was the Potter's", combined with the fact that he wasn't out to kill Lily, sort of lead me to the conclusion that he was out to kill James and Harry, the Potter's, the heirs to gryffindor....

		Harry indeed went down to the chamber, but with indirect help from Dumbledore in the form of Fawkes and the Sorting Hat managed to destroy Riddle and thus save giny's life.
		Her character was developed the most in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, where she was established as akind character with a no-nonsense attitude, considerable acting and magical ability and a bit too much pride (refusing to accepthelp even when she clearly needed it).
		When she reminds him of this to make him stop alienating himself from his friends, it dawns onhim that he forgot all about it and he genuinely apologises, something he was not inclined to do throughout his whole fifth yearin general.

Voldemort angrily refers to Dumbledore as "champion of commoners, muggles and mudbloods.".
