Ok figure out the names of these 'people' and some places. Once you get one, especially number 2, the theme should fall into place. If my memory serves me Mrs. P might enjoy these. Not sure if I remember that tidbit correctly, though. Also, I'm going to eat right now so I can look at these when I return.

1. The opposite of trivial + A dark color

2. Someone with Alopecia is not this + Someone who makes things from clay

3. A light shade of violet + An ivy league school

4. The winner + Cookie morsel

5. The moon, in Latin + someone who excels in the sheets might be said to do this

6. A beast

7. Someone who wails and sobs is doing this + Type of tree

8. Crazy me + Tempermental

9. Name of a star + Weird, in French???

Some different types

10. What a snake might do upon entering a room?

11. A swine's disease with symptoms that include witch-like features?

hogwartsAlastor Moody

hogwarts

lets try...

Both of those are correct. For the 2nd one, however, I was going for his nickname. That is the right character though. Good job!

Correct correct correct!

For 6, think of a synonym of beast not a type of beast. I guess the "a" threw people off. My bad.
