Character from Harry Potter by J.K. Rowling
Celebrity wizard author whose dazzling fame was built entirely on stolen memories — a fraud with no real talent except self-promotion and Obliviation.
Lockhart is pure vanity animated into human form. He name-drops, poses for cameras, and interprets every situation as being about him. His only genuine skill is Memory Charms, which he used to steal credit from competent witches and wizards. When confronted with actual danger he panics and runs. Now memory-damaged and living at St Mungo's, cheerfully signing autographs for no one.
Wavy blonde hair, dazzling white smile, forget-me-not blue eyes. Flashy turquoise and lilac robes. Posed author portraits everywhere.
Also known as: Gilderoy, Professor Lockhart, Order of Merlin Third Class
