"Is this all real? Or has this been happening inside my head?"
The topic of this article is of a real-life subject that has been mentioned "in-universe" in a canon source. The Harry Potter Wiki is written from the perspective that all information presented in canon is true (e.g., Hogwarts really existed), and, as such, details contained in this article may differ from real world facts. |
Sir Thomas More, also known by Catholics as Saint Thomas More (7 February, 1478 – 6 July, 1535) was an English wizard who acted as a lawyer, social philosopher, author, statesman and noted Renaissance humanist within the Muggle world. He was an important counsellor to King Henry VIII of England and for three years toward the end of his life he was Lord Chancellor. He was a executed for high treason after denying the validity of the Act of Succession. By the 1990s, there was a portrait of More hung at Hogwarts Castle.[2]

Notes and references
- ↑ Sir Thomas More's title may be indication that she is either a Muggle-born or half-blood witch. According to Remus Lupin, there are no princes in the wizarding world, and this presumably means that there is also no other nobility.
