Despite the opinions of most others, Albus Dumbledore trusted Snape for reasons that were kept between them both until their deaths. With tremendous difficulty, Snape was able to prevent Lord Voldemort from learning the truth about his loyalties. Shortly before Lily Evans was killed by Lord Voldemort, Snape changed sides and became a member of the Order of the Phoenix and double agent during the Second Wizarding War. Despite this, Horace did not have many hopes for Severus' future, as his photograph was kept behind many others. Severus was made a member of the Slug Club, presumably because of his brilliance at potion-making, and Horace kept a picture of him as a student, clutching his copy of Advanced Potion-Making. After leaving school he joined the Death Eaters along with a large group of his fellow Slytherins. This put his friendship with Lily under great strain.

Snape developed a passion for the Dark Arts at a young age, and had followed the pure-blood supremacists in Slytherin House, despite his own marred pedigree and his love for Lily, a Muggle-born. Severus became the immediate enemy of James Potter and Sirius Black and was a frequent victim of their bullying. This put him in the same year as his true love, Lily Evans. In 1971 he began his first term at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry where he was sorted into Slytherin. He met Lily and Petunia Evans when he was nine, and fell deeply in love with Lily, becoming a close friend of hers. He was also member of the Order of the Phoenix and played a very important role in both of the Wizarding Wars against Lord Voldemort.ĭespite Severus Snape's wizarding heritage, he was raised in the Muggle dwelling of Spinner's End, which was in close proximity to the home of the Evans family. During his lifetime, Severus Snape was Potions Master ( 1981– 1996), Defence Against the Dark Arts professor ( 1996-1997), and Headmaster ( 1997-1998) of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry (which he attended as a student from 1971 until 1978).
