Latest revision as of 21:47, 10 April 2024

Badeea Ali was a witch who started attending Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in 1984 and was sorted into Ravenclaw house.

A creatively ingenious soul, she took an instant interest in the portraits that hung all throughout the Hogwarts castle from the moment she set foot in the castle and proceeded to spend most of her time outside of her lessons experimenting with the creation of magical paintings of people and places, and the necessary spellwork required to make them come to life.

Biography

Badeea was born in 1972 or 1973. Her mother was a Muggle engineer, making Badeea either Muggle-born or half-blood. Her uncle owned a magical tea shop in Diagon Alley[3] hinting she had other wizarding members in her family.

She owned a pet cat called Laith. She loved painting the cat and said she could never have enough cat portraits.[8] She also enjoyed experimenting to create new defensive spells.

She came from an Islamic family and was a Muslim, given that she wore a hijab (a head covering traditionally worn by women of the Islamic faith), fasted for Ramadan and has an Arabic name (as most Muslims have them).

Hogwarts years (1984–1991)

Badeea started attending Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry on 1 September and was sorted into Ravenclaw house. Due to being a female Ravenclaw of the same year, she shared a dorm room with Tulip Karasu.[9]

She spent her afternoons in the Clock Tower Courtyard, where she created magical portraits. She often did not pay attention to the events going on at Hogwarts.[10]

She successfully convinced another student, Jae Kim, that she was able to Apparate, but in reality she used an Invisibility Cloak.[11]

In her second year, during the Teacher Appreciation Celebration, Badeea wondered why there wasn't a Student Appreciation Celebration.[12]

In her third year, Badeea took Divination[13] and Muggle Studies[14] as her electives.

Fifth year

In the 1988–1989 school year, she had Defence Against the Dark Arts[8] and History of Magic[15] classes with, among others, Jacob's sibling.

Star Shower Spell

Badeea finishing her painting with magic

She and Jacob's sibling met in the Clock Tower Courtyard when Badeea Ali was creating a magical portrait of Hogsmeade. Jacob's sibling needed her help to rescue Beatrice Haywood, who was stuck in a painting, after Nicholas de Mimsy-Porpington had told them about Badeea. Badeea explained that she had been attempting to recreate the portrait with Beatrice. She advised them to try something they would never normally do find a solution; taking this to heart, Jacob's sibling put on a cheery, complimentary attitude towards Pitts in detention, Argus Filch, and Merula Snyde, and obtained surprising results.

Badeea Ali's Chess Painting HM

Badeea's chess painting

During this year she participated in the Walter Aragon Wizard Chess Competition alongside Murphy McNully, Jacob's sibling, and Tulip Karasu. She was initially approached to produce posters for the competition, but decided to join the team herself even though she had no experience with playing Wizard's Chess. She was involved in Jacob's sibling's hunt for Brian Gagwilde's Wizard's Chess set, which she then practised with alongside Jacob's sibling. When Murphy got angry because she was still making rookie mistakes, Badeea decided to go to the courtyard and paint to calm her nerves. When Jacob's sibling approached her asking if she was alright, she said she didn't understand chess at a fundamental level. Jacob's sibling showed Badeea a way of looking at chess that was complementary to her personality, and she rejoined the team, going on to help them win the tournament.[5]

Later on, Jacob's sibling met up with Badeea in Defence Against the Dark Arts classroom when the former was looking for Patricia Rakepick. Jacob's sibling asked Badeea to teach them one ability.

Badeea and Jacob's sibling later invented the Star Shower Spell as part of the latter's chaos event in an attempt to get the Vault Portrait from Peeves.

Sixth year

Sometime during the year, Badeea became a founding member of the Circle of Khanna, a group devoted to avenging Rowan Khanna and locating the final Cursed Vault. It was at the group's first meeting in the Hog's Head Inn that she learned of the malevolent organisation R and its motives to locate the final Cursed Vault before them. As their first task, Badeea and Talbott made a map of the Great Lake.[6]

Seventh year

Badeea took part in the Battle on the Bridge along with the rest of the Circle of Khanna helping to defeat R.[16]

Shortly before graduation, she revealed that she intended to work at her uncle's tea shop in Diagon Alley but continue painting as a hobby.[3]

Physical description

Badeea had brown eyes and pale skin, and wore a blue sparkled hijab with a white undercap.

Personality and traits

Being a member of Ravenclaw house, Badeea was a highly intelligent and creative young witch with an impressive talent for painting and the experimentation with new forms of magic and spells. She was academically-minded, who took great interest in her schoolwork and thus often enjoyed discussing academic topics with other students. She enjoyed drinking Turkish coffee when studying, taking it with two lumps of sugar.[17]

She was also friendly and good-natured, as she was willing to assist Jacob's sibling when they needed her help. Indeed, she was so devoted to her hobby as an artist that she did not pay much attention to many of the events that went on at Hogwarts, showing her to be a fiercely dedicated individualist who preferred living in her own imagination and world, rather than being too obsessed with reality. She feared anything with which she could not interact through reason, which included birds.

  • Based on her name, she is very likely of Arabic and Islamic descent. Her wearing of a hijab further supports the idea that she is of Muslim background. However, even non-Arab Muslims usually have names with these roots (i.e. ones from Africa or Pakistan; more common in the UK and Ireland).
    • Her being of Islamic background does not seem to have caused any complications for her, despite the religion traditionally having a strongly hostile attitude towards the practising of any kind of magic. However, it is possible that her family have found a way to reconcile their faith with it, they follow a wizarding denomination secret from the general Muggle population or simply have excused her case, as preventing Badeea from mastering her magic or forcing her to suppress it could result in her becoming an Obscurial.
  • Unlike with all other friends, there are special editions of the Drink Butterbeer and Meal With a Friend hangouts with Badeea during Ramadan with unique dialogue. She has different food in the meal interaction, and plain water with bowls of date fruits at the Three Broomsticks, which are traditionally eaten for Iftar.
