Book 6 Excerpt
Sorry if there has already been a thread on this, I've been away for a while, but what do you all make of the passage from book 6 that JK has revealed on her website:
: He looked rather like an old lion. There were streaks of grey in his mane of tawny hair and his bushy eyebrows; he had keen yellowish eyes behind a pair of wire-rimmed spectacles and a certain rangy, loping grace even though he walked with a slight limp.
I think that firstly, this is likely to be a discription of the Half Blood Prince which would mean that it's not Hagrid or Lupin. Secondly, I think this is a description of Godric Griffindor. The fact he is described as an "old lion" suggests this, lions traditionally being couragous and courage being the main trait of a Griffindor has convinced me.
Maybe there will be a big twist in book 6 and it will be revealed thatodric Griffindor isn't dead, maybe he is an animagus and has taken the form of Fawkes the pheonix?

I still stand by what i said before
I think its a new character, because we already know what Hagrid and Lupin look like, and there backrounds and such, and nether of them have yellowish eyes lol
Its a new character, most likely half-blood prince and/or the new DADA teacher

Would you at least accept that there is a slight possibility of it being Godric Griffindor?

Nah can't be a picture, as it says in the passage the character in question "walked with a limp" so they are obviously alive.
Does it actually say in any of the books that Godric is dead? I mean how long do wizards live? Godric being one of the most powerful of all may live even longer, I know this is all very far fetched.

Yeah thats true, however, ive been giving the matter some thought over the last hour and I've decided that I think the person described in that passage is a new character, the heir of Griffindor and also the halfblood prince.

Why would Godric Gryffindor be called the HalfBlood Prince?
I don't know why, but since the announcement of the title of Book 6, I always seem to end with the taught of Elves. 
Crazy idea maybe, but I think that the Half Blood Prince is a Elf and Wizard, not accepted by the other Elves and therefore mocked by the name of Half-Blood, in the same category as Mud-Blood.
Hey you, stop looking at me that way, I'm not crazy!

I think that is the description of the new DADA teacher. I don't think she'll reveal anything on the HBP. But the description reminds me of the way she always describes the new DADA teacher. It almost fits moody's description. But I dunno if he'll be the DADA again?
My husband thought of this first and I totally agree with him.

i like the idea of this character being godric, but i'm not sure if it is. Fawkes being an animagus is also a very good idea, but i agree it is a bit far fetched. Posibly new dada teacher, although i think it shouldn't be another new character. I think its probably the hbp, but i dont want the hbp to be a new character either.
Actually, maybe its a relative of harrys, i mean all potters have the messy hair and glasses.
But then again i think of krum, you know, bushy eyebrows and the limp.
