Define Severus Snape Meaning

A Potions professor at Hogwarts school in the Harry Potter series.

Snape is generally described as hook-nosed, greasy-haired, pale and thin. His demeanor towards Harry Potter is closest to loathing, for reasons unbeknownst to Harry, until the 7th Harry Potter book. In the final installment, Harry discovers that Snape loved his mother Lily. Snape also despised Harry's father, James, perhaps because of jealousy.

Although Snape hates Harry due to Harry's resemblance of James Potter, he sees his own love's eyes in Harry. Snape is largely responsible for saving Harry's life throughout his school career by working as a double agent for Dumbledore. His death is quick and without glory, but Harry spreads the knowledge of Snape's bravery in the years after his death.

"The bravest man i ever knew"

Potions/DADA professor at Hogwarts in the Harry potter series.
Generally seen as mean and hateful man with a grudge against Harry ,passed down from father to son.However he came through for Harry in book 7 showing his true colours(still dark but with a tinge of grey which perfectly complimented the harsh white of voldemort's white face and red eyes)

the sexiest man alive (more handsome than gilderoy lockhart), he is clever, dark and mysterious and my husband.

n. An ambiguous character in the Harry Potter series. He teaches the Potions class, speaks mostly in a whisper and snarls a lot.

In the books, he is a thin, spider-like man with a large hooked nose and greasy black shoulder-length hair. He wears billowing black robes and pretty much dislikes everyone.

In the movies, he is Alan Rickman in a non-wizardy but completely adorable outfit.

The greasy haired, hook nosed potions master in Harry Potter that "loathes"...mostly everything. Mysterious, and has a haunting past. Was a death eater, but turned spy for Dumbledore and the Order Of the Pheonix.

In the sixth book, Snape murders Dumbledore.

In the seventh book, Snape shows Harry why he did it. Turns out he loved Harry's mother, Lily, and turned to Dumbledore for help when he found out Voldemort was going to kill her (and her son and husband). When Dumbledore has one year left to live he asks Snape to kill him in order to help others.

(Beware of SPOILERS)

The Potions Master at Hogwarts.

Likes: (Defense Against the) Dark Arts, Lily Evans, Potions, Lily Evans, Scaring first-years, and Lily Evans

Dislikes: James Potter, Harry Potter, Voldemort, and a lot of other things...

He's also quite a good runner. Nobody runs faster than "Snape confronted with shampoo."

The Potions Master at Hogwarts School for Witchcraft and Wizardry. In book 6, he became the Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher, and in the 7th, became the Headmaster and got killed by Lord Voldemort's snake, Nagini. To this day, no one knows if his portrait resides in the Headmaster's room, but seeing as how he was a one, most guess yes. He at first had a goatee in the book's illustrations, but since portrayed by Alan Rickman, he apparently shaved it off. He has many fangirls (me included), but I am one of the sane ones, people. He is also extremely hot. And yes I had to say that.

one of the kindest, bravest, gentlest, sexiest men dumbledore has ever known.

He's the ol' greasy haired dude, long hooked nose, sallow skin, yellow teeth, evil sneer....
....

hot voice, god like stance, hear melting gaze...
