Biography
1995–1996 school year
By 1995, Timothy had two sets of portraits hiding different shortcuts. One set hid a secret passageway between the fifth-floor corridor and the Herbology Corridor. The password for this shortcut was "Flaming earwigs". [3] The other pair of portraits hid a shortcut between the Transfiguration Courtyard and the fifth floor. and its password was "Carpe Diem". [4] Both sets of portraits were placed next to portraits of a staring eye and Timothy's portrait was very annoyed by it, asking students to "cover him up" and claiming that "he is one of them " (whatever that means). [3]
1996–1997 school year
In the next school year, both sets of portraits were hung on other places. Due to leading close to the Quidditch pitch, the portrait said its password to the Quidditch Captains, asking them to have their teams to keep it down when they passed next to him. One of the two sets hid a passageway from the Grand Staircase to a stairway leading towards the Quidditch Gate and its password was "Boiled Beetles". [1] The other pair hid a secret passageway from the Quidditch Gate to the Portrait Room. [2]
Behind the scenes
- Timothy the Timid may have passed away sometime prior to 1995 as many portraits hung at Hogwarts Castle depict deceased individuals.
