Chasers

From Philosopher's Stone to Order of the Phoenix, the Chasers for the Gryffindor Quidditch team are the same three girls: Angelina Johnson, Alicia Spinnet and Katie Bell. Katie is one year older and Angelina and Alicia are two years older than Harry. The three girls appear to be a close-knit group both on and off the field. Harry sometimes notices them sitting together in the Gryffindor common room, talking quietly or working on homework, and they go to the initial planning meeting for Dumbledore's Army in Hogsmeade together.

Angelina Johnson

Angelina Johnson (born late October, 1977) is a tall girl of African descent with long braided hair, and two years older than Harry. She has been a Chaser on the Gryffindor Quidditch team since her second year, and replaces Oliver Wood as Quidditch captain in her seventh year. She proves to be at least as demanding of her team as Oliver had been, but attributes her hard-driving attitude to the stress of the job, saying that she regrets having been so hard on Oliver when he was captain. In Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, she unsuccessfully attempts to enter the Triwizard Tournament and attends the Yule Ball with Fred Weasley. In Order of the Phoenix, Lee Jordan openly harbors an attraction to Angelina, interjecting comments about her during his Gryffindor-Slytherin match commentary, much to Professor McGonagall's disdain: "...what a Chaser that girl is, I've been saying it for years but she still won't go out with me..."

Alicia Spinnet

Alicia Spinnet first joins the Gryffindor reserve squad and moves up to the first team the next season (Harry's first year). Alicia is most often the Chaser who takes penalties when the other team commits an infraction. In her seventh year, she is jinxed by Slytherin Keeper Miles Bletchley in the library prior to the Gryffindor-Slytherin match, causing her eyebrows to grow long enough that they obstruct her face; Professor Snape deliberately ignores the accounts of fourteen eyewitnesses, instead passing the incident off as her errant attempt at a Hair-Thickening Charm.

Katie Bell

Katie Bell joins the Gryffindor team in her second year (Harry's first) as a Chaser, and joined Dumbledore's Army in her sixth year. In Half-Blood Prince, she is the only remaining member of the original Gryffindor team that was helmed by Oliver Wood, and she advises Harry not to discriminate in favor of old players like her, but to hold trials for all.

Madam Rosmerta, whom Malfoy has placed under the Imperius Curse, gives it to Katie in Hogsmeade, but Katie accidentally touches the necklace through the torn package and is badly cursed. Fortunately, she only touches it with the smallest amount of skin due to a small hole in her glove, but she is hospitalized for several months in St Mungo's. Dean Thomas is named as her temporary replacement on the Gryffindor team, but Katie returns fully healed before the Quidditch Cup final against Ravenclaw, and Gryffindor emerge victorious for the third time since Harry started at Hogwarts. In Deathly Hallows, Katie reunites with Oliver, Alicia and Angelina to assist the D.A. in the battle against Voldemort and the Death Eaters at Hogwarts.

Keepers

Oliver Wood

Oliver Wood (born c. 1976) is Captain of the Gryffindor Quidditch team in the first three novels. Wood, described as "burly," is a talented and keen player and a born leader as captain, but also tends to act as a taskmaster due to his obsession with the game; he never cancels practices, poor weather conditions notwithstanding, and holds training sessions in early morning hours. In his seventh year, before the Quidditch Cup final, he constantly harangues Harry to catch the Golden Snitch only when Gryffindor is fifty points ahead of Slytherin during the match. His longtime rival is Slytherin captain Marcus Flint; they are well-known for trying to break each other's fingers during their pre-match handshakes. Oliver appears briefly in Goblet of Fire, when he excitedly introduces Harry to his parents at the Quidditch World Cup and announces that he joined the Puddlemere United reserve team.

Although Wood is not seen again until the seventh book, his tenacity is not soon forgotten. In Order of the Phoenix, when Angelina Johnson assumes the team captaincy with equal fervor, Harry remarks to Ron, "I think we'd better check with Puddlemere United to see if Oliver Wood's been killed during a training session, because she seems to be channeling his spirit." When Ron is poisoned in Half-Blood Prince, Fred Weasley replies to speculation that someone was specifically targeting the Gryffindor players, "Wood would have done the Slytherins if he could get away with it."

Oliver is one of many Hogwarts students, past and present, who takes part in the Battle of Hogwarts in Deathly Hallows.

Cormac McLaggen

Cormac McLaggen is a Gryffindor student one year above Harry. He is introduced for the first time during the train journey to Hogwarts in Half-Blood Prince as a member of Horace Slughorn's Slug Club, due to his uncle's close ties with the Ministry of Magic. Aggressive and arrogant from the outset, he plays roles both in the fortunes of the Gryffindor Quidditch team and in Hermione's love life. McLaggen tries out for the position of Keeper when Harry becomes captain, having missed the tryouts the previous year due to his eating a pound of Doxy eggs on a bet. However, Hermione jinxes him with the Confundus Charm, causing him to miss his last save and thus helping Ron retain his spot on the team. McLaggen does not take his loss well, accusing Ginny of favoritism by giving Ron easy shots to block. McLaggen fills in during Gryffindor's match against Hufflepuff as Keeper when Ron is unable to play due to poisoning, but his debut is disastrous, as he orders the team about instead of focusing on his own position, knocks Harry unconscious with a Beater's bat, and contributes to Gryffindor's lopsided 320-60 loss, thus earning him universal dislike among his housemates and Harry and the team in particular, much to Ron's delight.

In the Harry Potter series, the Hogwarts school of witchcraft and wizardry is divided into four houses, each bearing the last name of its founder - Godric Gryffindor, Salazar Slytherin, Rowena Ravenclaw and Helga Hufflepuff. ...

McLaggen also briefly becomes a pawn in the escalating tensions between Ron and Hermione: Hermione dates him at a Christmas party hosted by Professor Slughorn in reaction to Ron's recent relationship with Lavender Brown. The plan fizzles as she is disappointed by McLaggen's idea of romance, though, and she leaves him stranded under the mistletoe and avoids him for the remainder of the party. This article is about minor Harry Potter characters who are Gryffindor students in the same year as Harry. ...

Along with Romilda Vane, McLaggen is one of the few Gryffindors shown to be an unsympathetic (or unlikeable) character. His Gryffindorian bravery is shown to be something of a strength and a flaw: he is foolhardy and proud, almost to the point of being arrogant. Rowling introduced him to coincide with the reoccurring themes of good and evil in the series, and how blurry the line often is (also shown with the first known "good" Slytherin, Slughorn.) In addition, she said that she named the character McLaggen simply because she liked the surname. [3] Romilda Vane (born c. ...

Miscellaneous

Lee Jordan

Lee Jordan is a Gryffindor student two years ahead of Harry, and a close friend of Fred and George Weasley; he is as witty and fun-loving as the twins and a fellow Quidditch enthusiast. Lee wears his hair in dreadlocks and serves as Hogwarts' Quidditch announcer. Harry first encounters him at King's Cross as he attempts to smuggle a giant tarantula onto the train. Though Lee is a lively and astute commentator, he has a tendency to discuss off-topic subjects such as Harry's Firebolt or his own attraction to Angelina Johnson, his commentary is clearly biased in favor of his house, and his jovial tone often turns sarcastic whenever he talks about the Slytherin team. Lee also habitually swears in frustration whenever an opponent commits an infraction or scores against Gryffindor, often to the point where a frustrated McGonagall attempts (unsuccessfully) to take away his megaphone.

In his seventh year, Lee joins Dumbledore's Army, helps Fred and George with testing their merchandise on unsuspecting first years, and becomes the only known victim, besides Harry, of Dolores Umbridge's detention quill after he vocally objects to her ban of Exploding Snap games during classes. His commentary suffers from lack of enthusiasm after the twins unexpectedly leave Hogwarts in the wake of the student uprising against Umbridge, during which he does his part by levitating two nifflers through her office window.
