[Dismissed]

Okay, i'm taking a really really big leap here..I'm not sure, but it is a thought.

Could Luna be, like Tonks, a Metamorphmagus?

It's a long run, but it's a possibility. I mean, why are we introduced to her NOW of all times? It seems like in the 5th book, a lot of people know 'Loony Luna', but yet we never seen her. The only part of her thats mentioned is in the 4th book, and that's about her family, 'The lovegoods'.
(If you can't find this in the 4th book I can easily go get the chapter and page that it's on.)

I know, people may ask why I spend so much time thinking about this...But it just is strange, that we never heard of Luna Lovegood in the past. It's almost like she appeared out of nowhere..

And think about it..

Metamorphmagus comes in handy. You can change your looks to pretty much anything....She could've easily changed into someone else and pretended to be them at some point...

No, I haven't, at the moment, found any rock solid proof about this, but you know...

Another thing i've noticed is the fact that Luna never seems to get harmed.
When they wrestled the slytherins to get out of Umbridges office, she was the only one that J.K.R didn't describe as harmed in any way at all.

You find that in all the situations she's in, everyone gets hurt except for her. The only time she is harmed is in the end of Book 5, where one of the death eaters makes her fly into a desk. But that seems to be the only time!

Another thing is the fact that Luna is obviously a friend of Ginnys...But Ginny is usually around her friends most of the time. And if Ginny knew of Loony Luna, why wouldn't Harry, Hermione, and Ron? The only way she would've been able to meet Luna would be at Hogwarts, and even then it barely shows any Ravenclaw/Gryffindor contact besides classes and quidditch, and at that time it would be somewhat difficult for Ginny to befriend Luna in that short period of time.

So in that amount of time, Ginny would've already introduced Luna in book 4, instead of Book 5..

It's very obvious, That Ginny knows something noone else does about Luna. Whenever she acts herself, Ginny is always either laughing or giggling about it, even when it's not funny. There is something about Luna that is being kept a secret. What it is, I don't know, but I am definitely going into more research about this.

Does anyone else feel the same, or different?

[Claire]

i agree. there is something different about loony luna. i was thinking that she might be a seer. you know, what treleweny's mother was and what treleweny isn't. but i definately don't think that we have seen the end of ms. lovegood. she will no doubt have a large role in the final two books. and yes, it is strange that we never met her until book 5.

[GOFgurlie717]

I agree with you also...i mean she must have a big part in the last two books, then why would JK introduce her in the 5th. I wonder what shes gonna do.

[figgy66]

I think as you do that Luna will feature strongly later on, but I do think that she and Ginny may have already met outside school. In GoF when Mr Weasley takes Harry and the gang to the portkey to get to the Quidditch world cup, and he meets Amos Diggery, Amos mentions that the Lovegoods have gone on before. I think it is likely that this is Luna's family, which means that they don't live too far from the Weasley's.

[Ceres]

Maybe not a Metamorphmagus, though you do have some good points...

But Luna will be very important... I thought she might be a Seer aswell. I don't think Luna was mentioned as Ginny's "friend", but someone she knew that was in her year. She obviously met her in a class of some sort.

Also, it was Trelawney's great-great-grandmother, Cassandra Trelawney, who was the Seer...

I'm 1/3 the way through my 2nd time reading book 5, so I'm refreshed on the info .

[Voldemort]

I do not think that she is a metamorphogus though.

[hermy]

I totally agree... and think about this: Luna is in Ravenclaw, which means she is as smart as Hermione, so I think she is going to play a big role in the next two books.

[Harriet Hornbeam]

Just because Luna is in Ravenclaw does not mean she is either as smart or smarter than Hermione. I agree that she will certainly play a larger part in the next two books though, it seems VERY strange that we had never even heard of her before (besides the small mention of her family) so JKR must have some things planned for her.

[NastyShort]

HA! You know what I just realized? Cassandra was the female seer of Ilium. Lol, Cassandra Trelawney.

I don't think Luna is a metamorphmagus. Just because one has already been introduced, that doesn't mean that anyone who we don't have a lot of info on, is going to be one. She might be something special though. *pats Luna's head*

[Priori Incantatem]

Although you have made some very excellent points, Dismissed, I don't think she's a Metamorphmagus. I think maybe the only reason she didn't get hurt as much was because maybe she knows more hexes or defensive spells than Ron or Ginny, or perhaps her instincts are a bit more sharp.

It's not a bad theory, though.

[Naz]

i agree. i dont think she is a metamorphagus. she will play an imprtant part in future books tho

[Priori Incantatem]

Most definitely! There's a reason why Jo included her in the Department of Mysteries scene.

[DancingVeela]

Yeah... because otherwise it is kind of random for her to be there.

[Half Blood Princess]

I don't think she's a metamorphagus either, but of course she's important. JKR doesn't introduce characters for no reason if they're ot going to be important (look in her official site about all the characters she cut because they weren't important). I don't think she'd introduce a character, give her that big a part, and then cut her out.

Also, I don't think Luna got hurt like the others because I don't think she put up much of a fight. The others were all struggling to get away from Malfoy and his croonies, but she was just standing there.

[suprbookwrm]

I think that's a really interesting theory. it would be a cool twist to the books if she was.
