Alastor Moody also known as Mad-eye Moody

1) He was one of the most famous aurors of his time and he single-handedly caught dozens of dementors and yet most people believed him to have turned mad upon his retirement, this hurt more than he ever let on.

2) Despite being an auror who has permission to kill upon capture he never killed anyone unless he had to. It wasn't that he felt sorry for the death eaters or even that he didn't think they deserved to die because he believed that whole-heartedly. It was just that he didn't believe that you should kill someone in order to reinforce the law against killing someone. It was just too hypocritical for his taste.

3) When Dumbledore asked him to come out of retirement in order to teach at Hogwarts he was actually quite excited though he pretended otherwise. One of his greatest regrets was that he never actually managed to do any teaching and so if anyone was to ask again… weel he might just accept.

4) Moody had fought evil people for most of his life and had been in some horrific circumstances which would have given lesser people a heart attack but while he was locked in that trunk and the spells around him were wearing off he was truly scared although he would never admit it. When the trunk was opened he felt more relieved than he had ever felt in his life.

5) After he was retired he missed being an auror and fighting for the good side. He felt unneeded and unwanted when he wasn't doing something useful. That's why he joined The Order of the Phoenix so readily. It was a relief in a way, he was fighting for the greater good again.

6) Moody prided himself on never being too close to anyone, after all you never knew who you could trust in war. It was just the way he was. He believed that he cared for no one so why did Dumbledore's death leave such a great hole in his life and his heart? Moody didn't need friends did he?

7) When he agreed to take part in the rescue mission at number 4 Privet Drive and was told of the risks he just knew he was going to die that night.

8) If he could have chosen a way to die it would have been the way he did. Fighting for what he knew to be right.

9) If he had one regret it was that he never got married and had his own children, maybe it would have been nice to have someone to love and someone to love him.

10) When he was being sorted the sorting hat considered Slytherin which is the thing that made him want to become an auror, to prove it wrong.
