The Story of Regulus Black Explained (+Kreacher's Tale)

[@gabrielacolon1593]

I always feel for Regulus, while Sirius had friends who helped him understand not everything was like his parents raised him to believe, Regulus had to discover all of that by himself.

[@Alt-yg5ng]

@Logia dude I read the books and I still like Snape. And Regulus is forgotten in the books. Not by the fandom. Everybody likes Regulus here.

[@BlackWolfCosplay]

@@raikaria3090 yeah I think a bit of peer pressure and inherited family views play a part in how a lot of them view "blood" too. Draco was a spoilt, racist, snob throughout most of the books because it's all he knew growing up with the parents and friends he had, it wasn't until he got in too deep with Voldemort that he started changing, and by Cursed Child (for those that count it) where we see he had grown out of it and was from what I can remember (literally read it once when it came out) an alright chap :)

[@abhinayamarykoshy1264]

You know what's tragic? In the end, Regulus and Sirius were more similar than different, and neither of them knew it. They both made the right choice. They both fought for the right side. Regulus, the son that most conformed to his parents' beliefs made the exact same choice as his reckless and rebellious older brother. Each thought the other was a coward.

[@nelsoncherrier3855]

I realised something as I was reading your comment. Maybe the reason Harry didn't see Sirius when he died and saw his parents and Dumbledore is because he was with Regulus, catching up on lost time.

[@ryleighadkins1650]

@@nelsoncherrier3855 I saw this and cried because what if your right and Sirius and Regulus were catching up? What if Sirius asked Regulus how he died and when and Regulus wasn't able to answer without getting upset? What if Regulus was watching Sirius from the day he died to the day Sirius died? What if he was trying to steer Sirius away from what he knew would happen, but Sirius just couldn't hear him? There are so many 'what if's that it makes me think, "What if Regulus didnt die at all?" Cause what if he didn't?

[@XxXShevampXxX]

Man, I completely forgot about this particularly tragic part of the story. I felt so sorry for Kreacher in the books but I love the part where he leads the house elves at the battle of Hogwarts in the name of Regulus who died looking like a coward but ended up being one of the most brave. I liked that part about Regulus. His bravery wasn't for the sake of glory or self serving. Protecting the his loved ones was enough reward for him even if it meant the memory of him being seen in a very negative light from then on. Like I said, tragic is the only way to describe his character and I think his part in taking down Voldemort is too often overlooked or forgotten, even by myself.

[@Finderskeeper98763]

I think Regulas was a good person at heart. He wasn’t evil just misguided, the environment he lived in was very hostile and he didn’t want to be abandoned by his parents.

[@namee466]

[@Regulusswimfloaties]

@@adrinapx(a fellow Jegulus shipper!) but think of it, if Sirius had left then the responsibility of being the heir to the family would fall onto Regulus. And he doesn’t have any other siblings, so his parents would make sure regulus followed the rules and lived up to his expectations, because they couldn’t afford to have another son rebel against them. They couldn’t disown him if he was the only heir they had

[@keenans-]

didnt do him justice in the movies at all

[@Toradono]

Regulus's story reminds me a little of Snape. Both started doing wrong, with going with Voldemort. But in the end, by knowing things of or from someone they cared about (Lily and Kreacher) they started to redeem themself and ended up dying for the safety of the wizarding world. Both so grey and amazing characters in Harry Potter. Their last deed was of heroes, even if their life before was not (bullying and such). Love this you do with HP characters. Keep on going. ^_^

[@oOISekaIOo]

And also, almost no one knew of their bravery and sacrifices until it was too late.

[@s._singh2627]

thanks you made my day

[@Toradono]

@YoungFavorite So true about that.

[@shivendragupta9095]

Toradono But if we closely notice Snape's character, he only saved Harry because he was the son of the woman whom Snape loved. Had Harry been someone else's son, Snape wouldn't have saved him anytime from Voldemort.

[@alexhyde8820]

Also, it seems as though Regulus stopped being a Death Eater because he realized how evil Voldemort was and, morally, couldn't do it anymore. Snape, on the other hand, only stopped being a Death Eater because Voldemort was going after Harry, and thus, Lily was at risk. Had it been someone else's kid, then, Snape wouldn't have cared, and thus would probably have remained a Death Eater. It wasn't because he realized it was wrong (like Regulus). It was because he never respected Lily's feelings of love for James, never respected her choice to marry James, and never let her go.

[@supermovies4625]

Such a short but sweet character. Sad how every thought of him a coward.

[@bryan.flores]

Supermovies right

[@Lonarix1]

Like Snape, the truth of his sacrifice would eventually get out.

[@Redrosewitch]

One of the many things that makes him such a hero. He remained hidden, even through death to protect his family.

[@Tustin2121]

That seems to be how most Slytherins are remembered in the Wizarding Wars. Draco Malfoy's hesitation and unwillingness to condemn Harry to death by identifying him at the Malfoy Manor in book 7 is what allowed Potter to escape in the end. Maybe not hero-worship worthy, but something should be said for it. Slytherins all get the short end of the stick when it comes to glory for their deeds.

Notice how two Slytherins (Regulus Black and Severus Snape) were better at defeating Voldemort and ultimately helping Harry than James Potter and Sirius Black.

DG I would not go that far. Severus while brave it is true Harry's parents would not have died had it not been for him. He did not go straight until he found out that Voldemort was going after Lily.

Sirius and Regulus were both brought up by the same parent, where Sirius was elder and had made friends with peps out of the family circle. Regulus would have seen how his oldest brother had acted and been treated[disowned], he was still living with his parent and never talks of friends only the house elf. He was recruited by Voldemort, probably partly to please his parents. When he found out how ruthless and evil Voldemort was he rebelled. Regulus like Snape were both enthralled by Voldemort and the prestige amongst their piers on seeing his true nature they helped fight against V & his followers, trying to keep their loved ones safe. They were mistaken not bad & ALL THREE very brave.

He made a mistake and he realized it and fought against the dark lord. Which is very slytherin in my opinion.

Suprises me everytime how Sirius and regulus were such noble and brilliant men, considering their heritage and upbringing. True unsung heroes.

[@warriorcatskid003]

It really is sad that Sirius never knew how much of a hero his brother was. He would have been proud. Also an AU where Regulus somehow lives, and helps out the Order would be great. My boy is so underappreciated.

[@lilithriddle8612]

I'm a bit upset with Sirius now. I understand he didn't know what his brother did, but still talks about his brother being a coward, trying to quit being Voldemort servant. That is cold. He died realizing, that he made a huge mistake following him and trying to leave. He had the nerve to call his brother a coward. For all Sirius knew, Regulus wanted to turn over a knew leaf. He was still his brother. Sirius is my favorite character, but I don't like this side of him. Everyone has their flaws. RIP Regulus. You were a good man.

What if Regulus Black is an animagi, and his animal form is Crookshanks. There is a lot of evidence, he appears in the third book so what abruptly. It is said that he communicates with Sirius but It is never stated that the human pretending to be an animal can talk to an animal. All though animagi can talk to their own species. Regulus is even a star in the Leo constellation, and Leo is a cat, just as Sirius is a star in the dog constellation. The relationship that regulus has with Scabbers could be thought of as a normal cat and rat, but maybe he can tell it's his brothers old friend that turned on the marauders. Regulus may have gone into hiding and faked his own death to escape Voldemort's control and later be able to come back at the exact time to be able to fight him. It is also said that there are deep scratch marks underneath Regulus's name plate on his door, that's kind of a weird detail to add. Also Crookshanks jumps on Sirius's chest just as Harry is going to kill him. Just a theory. I know he is half kneazle but maybe since he is just half he could still be an animagi. There are a lot of strange things that don't seem to add up to why they would happen or be there.

[@0708LC]

I actually believe that Crookshanks is the old cat of the Potters. The one that Baby Harry, according to Lilly’s letter to Sirius, almost killed flying his toy broom. Crookshanks is said to have been in the magical menage “for a very long time” (12 years maybe?) It is why he recognises Sirius, as he must’ve seen him shift countless times. Also Kneazles are super smart so he must’ve realised that Peter betrayed his family and also knowing Peter is also an animagus he instantly realised who he was which is why he was after Scabbers from the day they met (met again).

[@anuradhabanerjee4948]

Good gracious, these 2 theories of crookshanks being regulus or the cat the potters originally owned just blew me off !! Woah, great work fellow potterHeads!!!

I love this character, even though he wasn't brought up much in the books or the movies, but he stood up for what was right and cared for his employees (the house elves, especially Kreacher). He could have easily discarded his elf and selfishly ran away, but eventually stood up against Lord Voldemort. He could have just left his house-elf, but instead, he sacrificed himself for his elf and was able to switch the lockets.

[@-cosmixnebulae-7398]

Regulus will always be a better man to me than Snape was, while Snape died for a better world, he bullied students for no reason (Neville, Hermione), he only really had one redeeming trait, and that’s something everyone has. I think his love for Lily was more of an obsession, if he truly loved Lily, he would be just devastated by Lily’s death and go to her grave to mourn her and summon a flower wreath. Meanwhile, Regulus died to outsmart Voldemort, he wanted to show Voldemort that guarding stuff for selfishness is wrong, it may just be me, but Regulus deserves to be named after, and it would Sirius and Regulus brothers again.

[@syedarizvi7290]

I definitely prefer Regulus' story over Snape's

[@jrloulanza6534]

Snape is an anti hero because bullying is a minor crime.

Although John Potter killed his parents and himself while his brother James was over 20 to protect him from revealing the location of the his brother. I mean that's what happened normally people that are 21 have alive parents and that's why Harry's grandparents couldn't stick around for him.

Thank you soooo much for this amazing video that finally does justice to Regulus. He will always and forever stay my favourite character in the series and I'm so sad the movies just skipped over his story and only mentioned him once... People often forget what Regulus did for the wizarding world by sacrificing himself for the dark lord to die. In the end it didn't really help as there were 7 horcruxes to get rid of, but nevertheless, Regulus's intentions are what makes him amazing and my favourite character of the series.

[@ralfagcaoili3005]

Aakash Pandey yup

[@alexhyde8820]

No, he was the hero people try to make Snape out to be. Not saying Snape didn't do something good, but the man was far from the hero he's often made out to be.

[@lisakaz35]

Snape is complicated. It's hard to be on the "good" side when those deemed good treated you like crap and stole "your" girl. I think those who talk about bullying have to keep in mind that Snape's supposed loyalty to Slytherin and Voldy woulda been questioned if he didn't treat Granger, Longbottom and Harry Potter (most of all) like crap. It was easy for him to channel the residual resentments he had as a student. He sublimated them brilliantly and lived a lonely life as a result. His "cover" was credible but I think it is forgotten that it was a cover for him and he sold it so well it didn't seem like cover at all.

[@alexhyde8820]

1. Regardless of what others do to you, you have a choice about how to respond. 2. Who stole "his" girl? Really, who? Because it sure wasn't James; the two of them fell in love and, regardless of who it was, the idea that anyone "stole" "his" girl implies that Lily was something that could be stolen. That she was "something" and not "someone" who was fully capable of making her own decisions, which she did, and she chose James, who grew up while Snape remained the same and bullied students so badly he was outright abusive and one of the students had him as his worst nightmare. Further, the concept of "stole 'your' girl'" also implies that Lily belonged to Snape, that Snape owned Lily, instead of Lily being her own person, which she was. Snape didn't own her, and neither did James. So, I assume you mean that James is the one who "stole" Lily, despite how illogical that is. Lily wasn't stolen, nobody owned her, and she chose someone else. I've noticed that's difficult for some people to accept, at least in part (I imagine), due to Alan Rickman's performance. Not saying Snape never did anything good, just that he wasn't the hero that some people make him out to be.

Reg's story is heart-breaking and at the same time inspiring. He was incredibly selfless. Now there are two things that I've been thinking about: 1. He was close to Voldemort. Sirius thought different, but notice when Regulus left the note for Voldemort he signed it with "RAB" instead of his full name. Given the fact that he wanted Voldemort to know who the note was from, he must have been sure that he knew his name. Voldemort has dozens of Death Eaters, he couldn't possibly know all the names. But he knew Regulus' name. I know this might be common knowledge already but I had to get that out of my mind. 2. Regulus wanted Voldemort to know who found his Horcrux. It was basically his dying wish, right? But he didn't find out because Harry and Dumbledore found the fake locket first. So Voldemort naturally thought Harry stole that Horcrux. He never knew it was really Regulus. That makes me really sad. I also wish Sirius had known...

Regulus reminds me of draco. They both grew up in pure blood homes (technically the same family too), and both appeared to be bad or cowardly people (since they both became death eaters), they both became death eaters not because they wanted to but because of the pressure their parents put on them to be perfect and serve the ‘Dark Lord’.

Terrific video! Kreacher has always been among my top favorite characters and I always get disgusted looks when I reveal that but it’s because the movies influenced people’s memory too much and they forgot about his deeds and his glory in the end which more than make up for his previous faults if you ask me. Also, the way Kreacher was before he was loyal to Harry was only cuz he was raised racist and subjected to terrible mistreatment followed by being trapped in a creepy house with only a psycho pic of sirius’ mom for years. Once he was enlightened to another way of thinking and normal treatment he changed sides. He was only “evil” cuz he was ignorant at the time.

[@martavdz4972]

Exactly! The "Fight! Fight for Harry Potter! Fight for master Regulus!" and the house elves stabbing the Death Eaters in the shins is one of the best moments in the books. Followed by Trelawney throwing crystal balls at the Death Eaters. I've read the books a couple of times but these two moments always make me cry and laugh at the same time.
