Of course, we later find out that it was Lucius Malfoy that sent Dobby to try and stop Harry from going back to school. But Dobby also tells Harry that he is aware of his fame as the boy who lived, as is everybody.
Dobby was not ordered by anyone to warn Harry - he did of his own accord. House-Elves have a mind of their own as well and he was able to decipher the right from the wrong and tried to make Harry not go back to Hogwarts because Harry was important in the Housel-Elf community as well.
Harry denies the praise until Dobby makes reference to Voldemort (calling him "He- Who-Must-Not-Be-Named"). We learn that Dobby wants to prevent Harry from returning to Hogwarts, as danger awaits him there.
Dobby's purpose in coming to Harry is to warn him not to return to Hogwarts. However, Harry strongly resists this idea. Harry later learns that Dobby has been responsible for preventing his mail from reaching him. Dobby's efforts to keep Harry from returning to Hogwarts reach a climax when he ruins a dessert.
Honestly, Hermione knew Dobby was a lost case... nothing could have revived Dobby after the attack or she would have definitely helped Harry with Dobby considering she was the girl who started S.P.E.W(Society for the Elfish welfare) and fought for elf rights. There was nothing to be done at that point.
HARRY POTTER LOCATION: Dobby's Grave 📍 Freshwater West Beach
Why didn't Hermione marry Harry?
Hermione was not interested in him romantically. She loved Ron. However, here is another reason why I think Rowling wanted Harry with Ginny: The Weasleys were the only family Harry had. Sirius was his godfather, but he was not a stable figure as he was on the run and had to prove his innocence.
Dobby's loyalty to Harry Potter was driven by gratitude reaching back years. Dobby defied House Elf rules to protect Harry, often at great personal risk.
Harry pleaded for help from the owner of the eye, Aberforth Dumbledore, and shortly Dobby, sent by Aberforth, Apparated into the cellar. As he was able to Disapparate to and from the Manor, Harry instructed him to first take Luna Lovegood, Dean Thomas, and Mr. Ollivander from the cellar, then return.
He also punishes himself for speaking badly about his masters and for leaving his home without permission, which he did to deliver a dire warning: Harry Potter must not return to Hogwarts because terrible events will happen at the school. Dobby is once again unable to provide more details.
HARRY POTTER'S SECRET HEARTACHE was an article published in Witch Weekly in March 1995. The piece, written by Rita Skeeter, falsely claimed that Hermione Granger was Harry Potter's girlfriend and that she was toying with him by seeking the affections of Viktor Krum, who himself was very much smitten with her.
When Dobby's last words before dying in Harry's arms are "Such a beautiful place, to be with friends. Dobby is happy to be with his friend, Harry Potter."
Throughout the series, Dobby shows a level of devotion to Harry that is unmatched, and that's what kills him. Though they get off to a rough start, Harry grows to appreciate Dobby and his often misguided protections, making this death all the more upsetting.
Dobby comes to see Harry Potter because he wants to protect him. He warns him to stay away from Hogwarts because there is an impending "... plot to make most terrible things happen." Dobby says he's known about it for months and doesn't want Harry in peril.
Dobby overheard something from Master Lucius and went to Harry Potter-Black to warn him, but Young Master Draco told Dobby to tell Mistress Cissa instead!" Dobby rushed out in one breath.
On the face of it, Dobby's story is simple: he's overheard Lucius discussing his plot to open the Chamber of Secrets; Dobby fears for Harry's safety and comes to warn him that he's in danger; Harry eventually figures out what's happened and Dobby is freed.
Chamber of Secrets is the only book where we don't see platform nine and three-quarters at all – Dobby “helpfully” seals it shut to try to protect Harry from harm. Harry and Ron, now firm friends and partners in crime, recklessly decide to get themselves to Hogwarts in Mr Weasley's illegal flying car.
He planted the powerful Dark object on Ginny Weasley, hoping that her involvement in the murder of Muggle-born children at Hogwarts would reflect poorly on Arthur Weasley and that he would lose his job. This would leave the despicable Lucius Malfoy free to own all the Dark objects he desired without pesky Mr.
He was thought to be around 37 at the age of his death. Originally Answered: How old is Dobby in Harry Potter? This takes place before Christmas that year, which means the year is 1992, about twelve years after the fall of Voldemort. This means that Dobby is at least a teenager by this point in the books.
Lucius Malfoy did nothing to dispel this hateful impression and was a fully signed up supporter of pure-blood supremacy. In fact, he was in Lord Voldemort's closest circle as a Death Eater. He despised Muggles, Muggle-borns, those he saw as blood traitors and tried to instil those values in his family.
His life after the battle is unknown, although it can be assumed that he continued serving his master Harry, or perhaps he continued working in the Hogwarts kitchens. In 2017, J.K. Rowling revealed on X (formerly Twitter) that Kreacher died at the age of 666.
Dobby spent at least a year searching for a family who would pay him wages to be their House-Elf, something which is unheard of in the wizarding world. Eventually, Professor Dumbledore agreed to pay Dobby one Galleon per week to work at Hogwarts – he had offered more, but Dobby bargained him down.
In reality, Dobby's Grave is located on Freshwater West beach in Pembrokeshire. Why didn't Harry use magic to bury Dobby? Dobby was a dear friend to Harry, so he wanted to provide him with a proper burial. Hence, he refused to use magic to bury him.
Why and what does Dobby do when Harry doesn't listen to his warnings?
He warns Harry not to go back to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry that year because he is in danger. Harry asked who is plotting to do such a thing and wonders if it is You-Know-Who but Dobby shakes his head and hints at someone else being responsible.
