Selecting champions for the Triwizard Tournament

First appearance

Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire

The Goblet of Fire is the "impartial judge" in the Triwizard Tournament who chooses which students will represent their respective schools by the students placing their name in and spewing them out in a rush of red flames.

[edit] The 1994 Triwizard Tournament

Albus Dumbledore drew an Age Line around the Goblet during the 1994 Tournament to prevent students under the age of seventeen from entering their name. If they did, they recieved a beard in return. However, the Goblet was fooled into thinking there were more than three schools competing by a powerful Confundus Charm cast on it by Barty Crouch Jr disguised as Alastor Moody. This resulted in the selection of a Fourth Champion, Harry Potter, into the Tournament alongside Cedric Diggory, Fleur Delacour, and Viktor Krum. The flames of the Goblet went out and won't be lit again until the next tournament, much to Igor Karkaroff's anger, who wanted to reselect champions until each school has two representatives to even things out. It was later revealed that Crouch was working with Lord Voldemort in an effort to kill Harry.
