Revision as of 16:14, 24 November 2015

Pike^[1] (b. 1979-1980) attended Hogwarts in the 1990s and was Sorted into Slytherin house. He was commonly seen between 1993 and 1994 with Draco Malfoy, Vincent Crabbe, and Gregory Goyle.

Biography

SlytherinBoy — Pike in Hogsmeade near the Shrieking Shack

Pike began his education at Hogwarts in 1991 and was sorted into Slytherin house.

He was part of Draco Malfoy's gang in 1993 and 1994 and was one of the Slytherins that imitated a Dementor in a effort to scare Harry in the first Care of Magical Creatures class of the year. He was also with Malfoy in the Sundial Garden when Malfoy was punched by Hermione Granger in 1994.

Behind the scenes

Pike was portrayed by Bronson Webb in the film adaptation of Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban^[2]
Before his name was revealed many fans assumed this individual was Theodore Nott. Pike is somewhat similar in appearance to the way Nott is described in the novels. The difference however is that Pike is shown to be a member of Draco's gang while Nott is only loosely associated with the gang.
It is possible that Pike was created specifically to replace Gregory Goyle in certain action-oriented scenes as Josh Herdman had injured his arm and would have been unable to perform them. For instance, Pike replaces Goyle in the scene where Malfoy and his gang harass Ron and Hermione outside the Shrieking Shack.

-*Some believe this student is actually [[Theodore Nott]], a [[Slytherin]] student in Harry Potter's year described as "weedy"<ref>''[[Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix]]'', Ch. 21</ref>, though this has not been confirmed. Furthermore, Theodore was not described as being a part of [[Draco Malfoy]]'s [[Draco Malfoy's gang|gang]] or as taking part in the [[Dementor]] prank on [[Harry Potter]]. Another possible identity is [[Blaise Zabini]]. However, Blaise is identified to have dark skin, having made an appearance during the [[Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince (film)|film adaptation]] of ''[[Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince]]'', though as the third film was released before, it could be assumed that the film makers may not have realised this.

For instance, Pike replaces Goyle in the scene where Malfoy and his gang harass Ron and Hermione outside the [[Shrieking Shack]].
-*This character, like [[Bem]], [[Nigel Wolpert]], and [[Igor Karkaroff's aide]] among others, seems to be a made-for-film character and does not appear in any of the [[Harry Potter books|novels]].
