[edit] Biography
[edit] First Wizarding War
Sturgis Podmore was a member of the Order of the Phoenix, an organisation found and led by Albus Dumbledore, in order to oppose Lord Voldemort and his Death Eaters, during the First Wizarding War. He managed to survive the war since Lord Voldemort's first downfall.
[edit] Second Wizarding War
After Voldemort's return, Sturgis became a member of the Order during the Second Wizarding War, and was a part of the Advance Guard that safely brought Harry Potter to 12 Grimmauld Place.
On August 31st, 1995 he stood guard beside the entrance of the Department of Mysteries and was subsequently put under the Imperius Curse by the Death Eater Lucius Malfoy. Mad-Eye Moody was irritated when Podmore didn't return his Invisibility cloak and that he did not turn up to help transport Harry Potter safely to King's Cross Station, not knowing Sturgis had been Imperiused.
Under the control of the Death Eaters, Sturgis attempted to break into the Department of Mysteries during one of his guard shifts. However, he was discovered and arrested by Eric Munch, a Ministry official, during the attempt and was sentenced to six months in the Wizard Prison, Azkaban.
In an article announcing Sturgis Podmore's arrest, the Daily Prophet reveals that his home is Number 2, Laburnum Gardens, Clapham.
[edit] Later Life
It is likely that Sturgis was released from Azkaban after the War.
[edit] Physical Appearance
Sturgis is a wizard with a square jaw and thick straw-coloured hair. These features give the impression that his head was thatched.
