Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. I ask you to think back to the chapter "The Yule Ball" in "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire". Dumbledore says amicably, "'Only this morning, for instance, I took a wrong turning on the way to the bathroom and found myself in a beautifully proportioned room I have never seen before...'" What is in this room (as readers find out in book 5 is the Room of Requirement) when Dumbledore finds it?

Answer: A really rather magnificent collection of chamber pots

Dumbledore continues, "When I went back to investigate more closely, I discovered that the room had vanished. But I must keep an eye out for it. Possibly it is only accessible at five-thirty in the morning. Or it may only appear at the quarter moon - or when the seeker has an exceptionally full bladder." Oddly enough it is his last guess, the one that makes Harry snort into his plate of goulash, that is correct.

This moment is memorable enough for Harry to remember it about a year later, when looking for a place to hold his Defense Against the Dark Arts group's meeting. Dobby has begun to explain what the room does. "'- and if you really needed a bathroom,' said Harry, suddenly remembering something Dumbledore had said at the Yule Ball the previous Christmas, 'would it fill itself with chamber pots?'"
2. Dobby himself has used the room for a fellow house-elf, whom he took upon himself to take care of, when she was very drunk. Whom does Dobby hide in the Room of Requirement?

Answer: Winky

(Dobby tells Harry that "He has hidden her in the Room of Requirement and he has found antidotes to butterbeer there, and a nice elf-sized bed to settle her on while she sleeps it off, sir....") House-elves have single worded names- Dobby, Kreacher, Winky, Hokey... and poor Winky-the-house-elf was horribly distraught throughout book 4, as a result of being set free (for most elves an equivalent to being disowned and dishonored) from her masters, the Crouch family.

When Harry, Ron, and Hermione visit the kitchens to give Dobby some new socks, Winky is by the fire and so filthy that she is "not immediately distinguishable from the smoke-blackened brick behind her".

She is clutching a bottle of butterbeer, and Dobby says that Winky goes through six bottles a day, and although it's not strong for humans, it is strong for a house-elf.

As Winky hiccups, the other house-elves give her disapproving looks.
3. Mr. Filch has found extra cleaning materials in the Room of Requirement when he has run short. However, when Fred and George need to hide from this same man, what does the room become?

Answer: A broom cupboard

Once Harry has decided to use the Room of Requirement for his Defense Against the Dark Arts group's meetings, and people start arriving for the first one, Harry must explain to all of his perplexed peers what the room is. Cho says that the room is fantastic, but Fred frowns around at it, and says it's bizarre. "We once hid from Filch in here, remember, George? But it was just a broom cupboard then...."
4. Where is the Room of Requirement located?

Answer: On the seventh floor opposite an enormous tapestry depicting Barnabas the Barmy's foolish attempt to train trolls for the ballet

The Chamber of Secrets is indeed underground, but nothing known is "adjacent" to it. One can get to the Chamber of Secrets through Moaning Myrtle's bathroom, otherwise known as the girl's bathroom on the second (not fourth) floor that is always out of order. Classroom eleven is where Divination is taught by Firenze, but prior to that it is an unused classroom on the ground floor.

The Room of Requirement isn't located in a classroom! That wouldn't make any sense, even in the magical world.
5. "Dobby said to walk past this bit of wall three times, concentrating hard on what we need." What is something Harry decides he needs and concentrates on?

Answer: He concentrates on all of these things at one point or another

The room becomes the headquarters of what later is known as the D.A. for Harry when he needs it to be. The room never appears for Harry when he thinks to himself that he needs "to see what Malfoy's doing in here", nor when Harry thinks, "I need to see the place where Malfoy keeps coming secretly... I need to see the place where Malfoy keeps coming secretly", and not even when Harry thinks, "I need you to become the place you become for Draco Malfoy".

However, Harry does manage to see the room in a different transformation than the D.A. room in the chapter "Sectumsempra" of the sixth book. Harry needs a place to hide the Half-Blood Prince's copy of "Advanced Potion Making", and he finds the perfect place.
6. Harry's Defense Against the Dark Arts group decides to name itself Dumbledore's Army (the D.A.). For D.A. meetings, the Room of Requirement becomes a spacious one lit with flickering torches like those that illuminated the dungeons eight floors below. What does this room contain?

Answer: All of these things

The room was so perfectly designed for their meeting that there were the perfect number of cushions for every member. Dean asks Harry what the Sneakoscopes and Foe-Glass are, and Harry tells him that they're Dark Detectors. During the first meeting, Harry decides to start with the basics and teach the Disarming Charm, "Expelliarmus". Starting with the basics turned out to be a good idea, but when everyone casting spells on each other was starting to get a bit out of hand, Harry desperately thinks, "I need a whistle". Magically, he then spots one lying on top of the nearest row of books. Note: When I told you about the dungeons on the ground floor, or rather "eight floors below" (Americans like me should remember that in Europe the first floor is called the ground floor, the second floor the first floor, etc.), you should have gone back to question 4 and realized the Room of Requirement is on the seventh floor!
7. When Marietta Edgecombe betrays the D.A. and reveals a meeting one night, Umbridge along with some select students go to the Room of Requirement, hoping to "catch those in the meeting red-handed". However, since Dobby has already forewarned Harry and his group of her arrival, the students were running in every direction by the time she got there. Nevertheless, Pansy Parkinson runs into the Room of Requirement to see if the group has left anything behind. Does the D.A. leave anything that Miss Parkinson found?

Answer: Yes, the list of names that had been pinned on the wall

Umbridge needed evidence that an illegal student organization was being held in that room, and "to Harry's horror, [Umbridge] withdrew from her pocket the list of names that had been pinned upon the Room of Requirement's wall and handed it to Fudge". As Fudge immediately notices, the group has called themselves "Dumbledore's Army", which is a name that allows Dumbledore to claim credit (falsely, of course) to starting the group. In "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince", Harry mentions the fact that Pansy (although he says Malfoy) got into the D.A. headquarters when he is contemplating going into Draco Malfoy's secret place. "Malfoy got into our headquarters there last year, so I'll be able to get in and spy on him, no problem" says Harry.

Hermione doesn't think so, though, and she of course is correct. She replies, "Malfoy already knew exactly how we were using the room, didn't he, because that stupid Marietta had blabbed. He needed the room to become the headquarters of the D.A., so it did.

But you don't know what the room becomes when Malfoy goes in there, so you don't know what to ask it to transform into."
8. When Harry uses a spell he found in the Half-Blood Prince's copy of "Advanced Potion Making" (Sectumsempra) on Draco Malfoy, he is shocked by what it does. Snape seems to know where Harry read that spell, and asks for Harry to bring him all of his school books- but Harry puts Ron's potion book in his bag in place of the Prince's, and takes the Half-Blood Prince's copy to the Room of Requirement.

Answer: True

Despite Harry's panic he can't help but be overawed by what the room has become. He has walked into a room the size of a large cathedral, whose high windows allowed light to shine on "what looked like a city with towering walls, built of what Harry knew must be objects hidden by generations of Hogwarts inhabitants". Harry doesn't know where to hide his book, amidst the broken and damaged furniture, thousands and thousands of graffitied and stolen books, winged catapults and Fanged Frisbees, chipped bottles of congealed potions, hats, jewels, cloaks, what looked like dragon eggshells, corked bottles with evilly shimmering contents, several rusting swords, and a heavy, bloodstained axe. Harry ends up passing the broken Vanishing Cabinet in which Montague had got lost the previous year (what a nice little reminder and bit of foreshadowing), and ends up hiding his book in a cabinet, behind a cage of something that had long since died.
9. In chapter twenty-five of the sixth book, Harry is approaching the headmaster's office when he hears a scream and a crash. Harry hurtles around a corner to find the Divination teacher sprawled upon the floor. He tells Dumbledore a few minutes later, "Professor Trelawney was just in the Room of Requirement, trying to hide her ______ _______, and she heard Malfoy whooping, celebrating!" What does Professor Trelawney habitually hide in the Room of Requirement?

Answer: sherry bottles

Poor Professor Sybill Trelawney (her first name is spelled differently as the books progress. From her first appearance in the "...Prisoner of Azkaban" through the "...Order of the Phoenix", it is spelled "Sibyll." But in the Half-Blood Prince, it is re-spelled as "Sybill").

She has a habit of drinking too much sherry (a specific type of wine), and hiding the "evidence" of her bad habit in the Room of Requirement. Professor Trelawney didn't know students knew about the room, but Harry blatantly shows that some of them do, by asking her if she was trying to get in there. "I wished to - ah - deposit certain - um - personal items in the room..." she said. Harry asks if she couldn't get in the room- and this is an interesting insight to how the Room of Requirement works- she "got in all right", Professor Trelawney tells Harry, but "there was somebody already in there". Professor Trelawney didn't even know that students knew about the room, and thus was of course surprised when someone was in there.

She tells Harry, "I walked into the room and I heard a voice, which has never happened before in all my years of hiding - of using the room, I mean". Draco Malfoy was in the room at the time, and was busy celebrating... of course he didn't like the interruption...
10. In the chapter "The Lightning-Struck Tower", Draco informs Dumbledore that he's got backup and there are Death Eaters in his school tonight. Apparently, Draco Malfoy did manage to use the Room of Requirement to his advantage, as he's found a way to let them in. Dumbledore chats with Draco for a while, knowing that "killing is not nearly as easy as the innocent believe". During the chat, what does Dumbledore find out Draco was doing in the Room of Requirement?

Answer: Mending that broken Vanishing Cabinet that Montague got caught in

Malfoy continues to stall, and answers Dumbledore's question. He replies, "I had to mend that broken Vanishing Cabinet that no one's used for years. The one Montague got lost in last year." Dumbledore tells Draco that was clever, and realizes there must be a pair. Turns out the other one is in Borgin and Burkes, and they make a kind of passage between them. "'Very good,' murmured Dumbledore. 'So the Death Eaters were able to pass from Borgin and Burkes into the school to help you....A clever plan, a very clever plan ... and, as you say, right under my nose.'" It also might be interesting to note that Malfoy didn't tell Snape what he was up to in the Room of Requirement.

When Harry and Dumbledore left the school to find one of Voldemort's Horcruxes, Ron, Ginny, and Neville went to guard the Room of Requirement, but Malfoy got past them. Draco came out of the room about an hour after they started keeping watch, holding his Hand of Glory (a dark object that gives light only to the holder).

The moment Malfoy saw them, he threw Peruvian Instant Darkness Powder into the air and made everything go pitch black, and then Draco led the Death Eaters out of the magical room and into the school.
