![]() So how would Ariana’s Obscurus get to Baby Credence? It’s hard to know, but it feels like a genuine possibility. We know from Fantastic Beasts 1 that when the host Obscurial dies, the Obscurus typically vanishes with them, but Newt was able to keep one Obscurus alive when the host child died. The timeline of this is a little wonky, but it would likely come as welcome news to fans who aren’t crazy about this retconning of Dumbledore’s backstory with a secret brother. No one was sure whose curse it was that killed the young girl, but Grindelwald immediately fled, Albus’ relationship with Aberforth became more strained, and Albus himself carried with him deep regret for the rest of his life.īut there’s a third possibility that’s very interesting: Credence himself isn’t Albus’ brother, but the Obscurus within him is actually Ariana’s Obscurus. Ariana tried to intervene but was hit with a curse and killed. One day, when Aberforth confronted Albus about his and Grindelwald’s plans, a three-way duel broke out. Albus sparked to these ideas, and the two began researching the Deathly Hallows-something Albus’ brother, Aberforth, did not like. The young Grindelwald had ideas of wizard domination, asserting that Muggles were unfit to rule the world and the situation could be improved by pureblood wizards taking over. Albus resented this fact, and it was during his time at home in Godric’s Hollow that he befriended and fell in love with another young wizard, Gellert Grindelwald. When Ariana was 14, one of her magical outbursts killed her mother Kendra, and Albus-who had just graduated from Hogwarts-was forced to move home to care for Ariana. As a result, some believed Percival to be a believer in blood purity, given his seemingly random Muggle attack. It’s also worth noting that Percival never admitted to authorities why he attacked the Muggles, so he could maintain the secret of Ariana’s condition lest she be sent to an asylum. He was sentenced to Azkaban prison, where he later died, leaving Kendra to take care of the family. As we learned in the first Fantastic Beats movie, Ariana was likely an Obscurial-one whose suppression of magic creates an uncontrollable force.Īfter the attack against Ariana, Dumbledore’s father Percival attacked her assailants in a fit of rage, resulting in his arrest by the Ministry of Magic. This had a traumatizing effect on the child that left her forever changed, unable to control her magic. When Ariana was six years old, she was attacked by three Muggle boys who saw her performing magic. Kendra was Muggle-born, while Percival was a wizard. Their parents were Kendra and Percival Dumbledore. Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore was born in 1881, followed by Aberforth Dumbledore a couple years later and finally Ariana Dumbledore a couple years after that.
