Erm...I've been reading this thread, and just to get this out...y'all remember in the 5th book when they were cleaning out Sirus Black's house and they found that old locket-thing in a drawer? (I may be wrong on this...) And then they just threw it away...I think that R.A.B. stands for Regalis Black.

It does and I also believe he's not dead.

i thought that voldemort had killed him though because he had joined voldemort but when he saw the kind of things voldemort did he wanted out. i thought that was in one of the books but i can't check because i only own the sixth one.

We heard from Sirius that Regulas is dead. So far in the series unless we actually see someone die they end up being alive.
Examples:
Pettigrew was said to be dead after all they found of him was a finger (Fudge PoA). We later found out he was actually Scabbers.
Barty Crouch, Jr. was said to be dead. Sirius said he saw him carried out dead out of Azkaban himself. (GoF) We all know that Barty Crouch, Jr. was fake Moody.
So it's not out of the realm of possibility that Regulas Black is alive...Considering HBP is a book where the draught of the living dead was mentioned.

hmmm... you know what that could work. i like this theory more than all others i have heard. i guess we will find out when book 7 comes out, which won't be till 2007. she seems to release them too slowly.

What exactly was this draught? Is there any possibitly that it was what Dumbledore drank in the cave?

That was the potion they had to make in the first potions class of the year for which Harry won his bottle of Felix Felicis. It was also mentioned in the Philospher's stone in the chapter, "The Potions's Master". Snape describes it as "a sleeping potions so powerful it's known as the draught of the Living Dead".(103 UK)

so do you think that has something to do with Regalis Black? Do you think he will come into the story from that or something? What was your purpose in mentioning the draught?

I think that Regulas has had the draught because it was important to make it look as though he were dead to those who would want to kill him for real.

Iverkid · Post by **Iverkid** » Sat Mar 18, 2006 11:17 pm

it seems there could be other ways to do it but you think it is this draught? just because they mention it? hmm, i'll have to think about that and see if i can get my hands on book five.

Yeah, but most everything Snape metioned in that speech of his in PS has been used as an important part of the plot. Wolfsbane was used in POA because that's the potion Lupin took to curve the effects of his werewolf problem. A Bezor was used in HBP not only as Harry's solution to his antidote class room assignment, but it helped cure Ron when he drank the poisioned mead. Dumbledore told Draco (in the US edition anyways) there were ways making people appear dead without them actually being dead. I have to think the draught plays more of a role then just having it as a classroom assignment.

hmmm that is possible. i will look into it.

Well then who's to say that Dumbledore isn't dead? Maybe he drank the potion too...

Because Dumbledore was clearly AKed right in front of us.

Iverkid · Post by **Iverkid** » Mon Mar 20, 2006 7:34 pm

um... because we see dumbledore die. i mean he fell off the astronomy tower. i definetly think he is dead. although i am leaning towards DOT's idea of Reagalis Black still being alive. it seems to fit.
