Snape's biodata
OK. A bad character like Snape doesn't deserve a biodata to be written by me. But he is really an interesting person and i would also like to expose the nasty things he did too.

Snape-or snivellus, as James potter and his friends call him- is really a fox in disguise. From the 1st HP book to the 5th, he has always been portrayed by Rowling as a good character. Ok, so he does have some misgivings during his angelic act but that is quickly covered up by (who else is so trusting?) Dumbledore. Always, whenever people like Harry raise their doubts about Snape with Dumbledore, he is quick to offer a reasonably good explanation.

Like in the 6th book, Harry found out by accident from Professor Trelawny that it was actually Snape snooping behind the door during Dumbledore's secret discussion with Trelawny. It was Snape, and not Peter Pettigrew that had betryed the Potters by tellng their whereabouts to Voldemort. Any ordinary person would see that Snape, who obviously hated James to the core, would not easily turn into a good guy after doing such an unforgivable act. However, we are talking about Dumbledore here, who by no means, is an ordinary person. In fact, he is the greatest possible wizard on earth. Dumbledore offered the explanation to Harry that Snape has since been mending his ways and that on that particular night, Snape has been carrying out orders from voldemort for the last time. He even said that Snape has come to apologize to him, saying that he is really sorry, basically offering a whole load of crap that good trusting, forgiving Dumbledore would easily believe.

At this point in the story, any fool could see that Dumbledore was really "besotted" by Snape and his lies. Snape has no chance to turn over a new leaf at all. Even God could not help him. He is rotten, thoroughly rotten, from inside his blackenedn heart.

Ok, i am being a little bias here. A person is what his environments make out. In the Phoenix, we see a glimpse of Snape's past during Harry's lesson of Occlumency. Harry had successfully defended himself against Sanpe's attacks on his mind and instead of his own flashbacks, he was entering into a childhood memory of Snape.

In the flashback, Snape, who was a scrawny little kid then, was cowering in a dark corner, watching his parents fight. That indeed was not a pleasant memory. Even Harry must admit that he could not believe he hated that poor little kid when he grew up. Also, Snape was always being bullied by James and Sirius during his teenage years at Hogwarts. In fact, he had no friends at all! That was not unexpectable as Snape was just " this oddball who has his mind on the Dark Arts" . I quoted that from Lupin.

Under this extreme conditions,couple with his desire to learn the Dark Arts, it was no surprise that Snape became a Death Eater.

It was also very ironic that after Snape was given the post of the Defence against the Dark Arts teacher after 5 long years of appeal, he committed murder. And not just on any Tom or Dick, Snape killed DUmbledore. From this, we can clearly see that Snape was immensely loyal to voldemort. Not even Dumbledore could win him over with his unfaltering trust. Now that is what made me really mad. Dumbledore trusted Snape with all his heart, even having to fend off accusations of Snape singlehandedly but look what that bastard did!

Snape, being an accomplished Occlumens, could lie without batting an eyelid. Clearly he used that to hoodwink Dumbledore.

More insults on Snape...
In the Phoenix, James and Sirius taunted Snape (do not feel any pitiance towards him!!) One of them said that during the exam that were having before, Snape had his oily nose nearly touching the parchment while he was writing. " Blots of oil will be on the parchment, the teacher can't read them!" When Snape sain that he would get James back for bullying him, James said smartly," What are you going to do? Wipe your nose on us?" OMG, that is sooo funny... ROFL.. (roll over the floor laughing)

singed, miao.
