The wizard is the main character in Beedle the Bard 's tale The Wizard and the Hopping Pot. He, unlike his father, feels those without magic are worthless. Upon his death, the father leaves the Wizard his "lucky one-legged cooking pot" with a slipper inside, instead of the gold he had been expecting. The son was very angry at this and decides to use it as "a rubbish bin".  As his father, a compassionate  wizard, helped out the Muggles by using his "magic pot" to cure people's diseases, the villagers turn to his son for the same services. However, the son turns out to be a cold-hearted man who turned away anybody  who seeked his help. As thus, the pot began sprouting manifestations of the forms of untreated diseases that villagers were suffering from. The pot also began to continously hop on its foot, resulting in an endless clamour. The son finally gave up  in the end and ran through the town, crying out to the villagers to come see him to remedy their ailments. As he used his magic to heal them (the villagers thought he was using the "magic pot" for this), the horrific manifestations on the pot begun to disappear. Finally, the pot was back to its former appearance and the son could slip the slipper onto the pot's foot. Once that was done, he and the pot walked away from the village to go and help other people.
