Cedric Diggory
Harry Potter·Hufflepuff·wizard in the Harry Potter universe
Cedric Diggory is a Hufflepuff wizard of the Harry Potter film series, remembered as a fair, kind and widely admired student who served as a prefect and captained the Hufflepuff Quidditch team as Seeker. Chosen as the Hogwarts champion in the Triwizard Tournament, he shared a hard-won victory with Harry Potter after aiding one another through its tasks.
When he and Harry took the Triwizard Cup together, it carried them to the Little Hangleton graveyard, where Cedric was murdered on Lord Voldemort's orders, becoming one of the first casualties of the Second Wizarding War. His appearances across specific films and events are detailed in the Timeline.
