    Despite his horrific crimes of torture, murder and overwhelming oppression of muggles and muggleborns, what’s most memorable about Lord Voldemort is his unnatural, and abnormal appearance. The Dark Lord’s once handsome looks, which allowed him to charm and captivate so many of those he encountered in youth became nothing but a distant memory and one he cared not to remember, not out of sadness, but out of callous as he simply didn’t care. It was always worth it for the reward of achieving immortality, and achieve immortality he did. Many, if not all Harry Potter fans are aware of what a horcrux is, and how a young Tom Riddle split his soul to bond himself permanently to the living world. What Tom didn’t count on however, was just how adverse the effects of splitting his soul would have on his physical human appearance. In todays video, I’m going analyse and investigate, horcrux by horcrux, the declining stages of Tom Riddle’s appearance from his very first horcrux at just 16 until his last, Nagini, his snake. With that being said everyone, if want to join me in my investigation on exactly how Tom Riddle’s appearance changed, stage by stage, horcrux by horcrux, then stick around, you won’t want to miss this.

      That's one of the flaws I thought was the most noticable with Tom's character. Rowling is a great writer when she wants to be but she never showed the slow descent into why Tom believed in Wizard Supremacy. We're just supposed to believe that he woke up one day and ever since then he's been evil simply because he can't comprehend love. She never fully fleshed out his character. Not to mention how incompetent he was when he wasn't the mastermind orchestrating events behind the curtain. It would've been nice if Tom had found a note or something that expressed how much his parents didn't want him, and his hatred of Muggleborns was built up from bullying, or something.

      But that’s the point of his character. Contrary to popular theory, flawless characters are not interesting. In Voldemort’s case, his whole personality revolves around the desire for absolute control. he has the Dark Triad of personality. Narcissism, Machiavellianism, and psychopathy. His need for control extends far greater than a normal human. The symptoms manifest in childhood and get worse as one get older. In this case, creating the horcruxes not only damaged his body, but I would argue his mind as well. In this case, he was already on his way to becoming evil through his desire for control. It didn’t help that his damaged mind pushed him further in that direction. He really doesn’t need more fleshing out, as his Dark Triad would have him do similar things over and over again. It wouldn’t be that interesting. Also his incompetence when not in control is also a trait of the Dark Triad. He build everything around himself, so naturally everything fell apart when he wasn’t around. a show depicting his rise to power would be fun to watch, but it shouldn’t be focused about fleshing him out.

      @@a2isha I am unable to directly quote from Book 4 about it, but I do believe that Riddle likely gained that "fetal form" from both the possession of Quirrel in Book 1 and having Quirrel drink unicorn blood to strengthen him.
      Quirrel took the physical damage and degredation while Riddle absorbed the magical power from the blood and drained Quirrel of whatever he had remaining at the end of Book 1.
      Riddle states that he possessed snakes while in hiding, and that they "never lasted long".
      Perhaps the infusion of magical energy from Unicorn Blood and Quirrel gave Riddle enough presence that he was able to "haunt" the old Riddle house in secret between the end of Book 1 and the start of Book 4.
      Once Wormtail and Crouch returned to him, he possessed a large snake and used its body as a temporary shell for that year until the ritual was ready.
      In Book 4, we never actually get any clear description of Riddle's body other than as something repulsive. A decaying and seformed snake would definitely fit that.

      I think I gave a theory that as he mangled his soul, his soul became less and less human and more and more animal-like. Notice that he displays many snake-like traits both before and after creating the Horcruxes. He camouflages himself before sneaking up on his prey to strike with deadly speed and precision. He's relentless and cunning in pursuing his goals. And he can't help but bite those around him, even those that showed support and kindness like Professor Slughorn (The Farmer and the Viper fable).

    Something I always wondered was how Tom was able to go out in public without anyone questioning his altered appearance, but it just occurred to me that he could’ve easily gotten away with just saying it was some sort of medical condition. After all, since there was no historical precedent for making multiple Horcruxes, nobody knew what kind of physical changes would result. Then again, maybe everyone was just too scared to ask.

      Since his mother wasn't the strongest, at the point she would have died I believe he would have become bitter. The potential abandonment issues would have turned him against his parents.
      The only save that would have not turned him would have been a good marriage between his parents and them being good parents. Since most people don't have perfect marriages or become great parents.....

      The love potion was symbolic, but yeah if he grew up with loving people, he definitely wouldn’t have gone full psycho mode. he would have just become someone with an ISTJ personality.
      Like the bare minimum could have been giving him an emotional support Hufflepuff or something. And not sending him back to the orphanage, that would have worked, too. But, that’s just my 2 sickles.

    Yes, I agree that the scene of Voldemort asking Dumbledore for the DADA job should have been in the movie. IMO it was a big mistake to leave out several of the important flashbacks, which gave the book so much of its tone and character, not to mention explaining where he came from and what he was up to. I would have liked to see what they came up with for his appearance in that scene, as well.

    Artfully done, and insightful as usual.
    It was even handed of you to acknowledge not only Tom's unfortunate upbringing, but the fact that none, much less himself were even aware intricacies of this spell.
    None knew what would truly happen to one who succeeded in completing the process as written.
    To dive not once, but seven times into such an unknown?
    Regardless of one's opinion they'd be forced to acknowledge, even admire, his resolve to do so.
    To distance himself from his world by removing his form, his soul, really.
    A testament to how frightening it is to always feel "other".
    Perhaps, had he occasion to learn more, he would have focused upon his initial goal of mastering wizardry, rather than doing everything he could to distance himself from those he felt were only ever out to shackle him?
    Fantastic job with this one, Sir.

    Interesting analysis. Me and my friend were debating the creation of Horcruxes a few weeks back. We were discussing that too create one could it be that the person has too sacrifice a part of their body in order to bind their soul to an object. The best example of this is the Locket. Before Ron destroys it you can see an eye in the open Locket. Could this be Voldermort's eye which caused his eyes too bleed red??
    Could also explain how in the Philosopher's stone Voldermort is shown too have a nose whereas when he emerges from the cauldron in the Goblet of Fire he only has a slit for a nose. During this time period he creates a seventh Hocruxe in the form of Nagini.

    • @nessycyrodiil
      @nessycyrodiil 3 роки тому +13

      It is only when you intend to make The Horcrux, the creation of which on itself requires a very dark and a heavily masked ritual made beforehand. Voldemort had mastered the ritual, so by the time his 4th Horcrux was created he didn't even notice his soul ripping apart, because his soul was already damaged enough. Which explained how he didn't even know Harry was his Horcrux all along. Otherwise we'd have lots of Death Eaters running around looking like lizards with their souls stitched inside every random thing on the way.
