Tom Riddle (Lord Voldemort) split his soul by committing murder, which causes the soul to fracture, and then using a dark ritual to encase a piece of that fractured soul into an object, making it a "Horcrux". He created seven intentional Horcruxes (diary, ring, locket, diadem, cup, Nagini) and one accidental one (Harry Potter), resulting in his soul being split into eight pieces, making it incredibly unstable and monstrous.
The piece of soul that was still in Voldemort was the 7th piece. He unintentionally split his soul into 8 pieces when he tried to kill baby Harry Potter, therefore making 7 Horcrux. 6. 7th was unintentional and it was Harry when he tried to kill him but accidentally killed himself and created the horcrux.
Voldemort's soul, meanwhile, was ravaged by the creation of Horcruxes, and therefore was forced to exist in limbo.
However, it should also be noted that Voldemort unintentionally split his soul into eight pieces when he had intended to render it into only seven, so what the true limit is on the number of Horcruxes one can create is not truly known.
Voldemort found Nagini in Albania after his initial defeat, likely while he was a weak spirit possessing snakes; she was a unique, powerful snake, possibly a Maledictus (a witch with a blood curse turning her into a beast), making her an ideal companion, and he eventually made her his final Horcrux by murdering Bertha Jorkins with her present. Their connection deepened as he used her venom to sustain himself and later made her a container for his soul, ensuring their bond was profound and twisted.
In Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, Voldemort was going to appear feeding on Nagini's milk in order to survive, but the idea was discarded because it was considered terrifying and excessively disturbing for a children's film.
While Credence is a Dumbledore, he isn't the brother of Albus, Aberforth and Ariana. In fact, he's Aberforth's secret son! Aberforth met Credence's mother the same summer that Albus and Grindelwald met.
There's no single "saddest" death, as fans cite different characters, but Dobby, Sirius Black, Fred Weasley, Remus Lupin, and Snape are consistently named among the most heartbreaking due to their profound loyalty, tragic lives, or sudden, impactful losses, with Dobby's selfless sacrifice often topping lists for his pure heart and newfound freedom, and Fred's death devastating his twin George and family, notes Quora and Facebook users https://www.facebook.com/groups/309399756202202/posts/2389613828180774, and Reddit.
Delphini was likely imprisoned in Azkaban for the murder of Craig Bowker Junior, as well as for the misuse of an unauthorised Time-Turner in a failed attempt to bring back her father and his evil reign.
Notable Death Eater characters
In 1943, Tom Riddle, the "Heir of Slytherin", opened the Chamber of Secrets to conduct a purge on Muggle-born students. This resulted in the death of Myrtle Warren, who eventually returned as a ghost. Riddle opened the Chamber again in 1993 through the use of one of his seven Horcruxes, his diary.
He didn't need to process what happened, the sight of death processes itself subconsciously. Just seeing death alone isn't enough to see thestrals. You also have to process the death. That's why Harry didn't see them until the beginning of order of the Phoenix.
Thomas Riddell's gravestone in Greyfriars Kirkyard attracts thousands of visitors every year. These visitors are Harry Potter fans who believe that the name of the fictional character Tom Riddle, Lord Voldemort, in J K Rowling's books was inspired by the gravestone of Thomas Riddell.
By 1994, Nagini had permanently transformed into snake form due to her Maledictus curse and came into the possession of Lord Voldemort, who, using the death of Bertha Jorkins, made her into a Horcrux that same year.
He intended to kill Harry himself, and Lily's sacrifice to protect her son resulted in his defeat. The prophecy could have applied to both Harry and Neville Longbottom, as they were both born in late July. Voldemort chose to attack Harry because he believed Harry was his equal, a half-blood like himself.
Once snape realized this he said out of context “but he thinks it's her son.” Another way to say this more completely would be “I told Voldemort about the prophecy and I would be ok with whatever he decided to do, but HE THINKS ITS LILY'S SON HARRY and now he's going to kill the whole family and more importantly Lily ...

Hermione Granger became pregnant with her first child, Rose, after the Second Wizarding War, likely around 2005, and had her second child, Hugo, around 2007, both with Ron Weasley, after they settled down following the war, with Rose inheriting Ron's red hair and Hugo Hermione's brown hair.
She was already kinda friends with Luna since they were in the same year and likely had classes together, so it makes sense that shed like to pay tribute to her friend.
George's twin brother, Fred Weasley, was killed when the Death Eaters attacked Hogwarts Castle, so George's life was likely significantly different after Voldemort's defeat. The two were hardly seen without the other before, and neither the books nor movies talk much of how George handled losing his partner in crime.
J.K. Rowling stated that Hedwig's death was meant to symbolize Harry's loss of innocence as he came of age. So far, it has been the only scene that fans all prefer in the film adaptation compared to the book.
In 2007, Rowling was asked whether Dumbledore ever found true love. She replied that she always thought of Dumbledore as being homosexual, and that he had fallen in love with the corrupt wizard Gellert Grindelwald; Rowling did not explicitly state whether Grindelwald returned his affections.
Kendra Dumbledore
Kendra was the wife of Percival and mother to Albus, Aberforth and Ariana. Her life was forever changed by the attack on her young daughter which left Ariana unable to control her magic.
In around 1901, Aberforth had a son, Aurelius Dumbledore with a girl that he fell in love with in Godric's Hollow. However, the girl was "sent away," presumably by her parents, either before or after Credence's birth, although Albus was aware of rumours that there was a child.
