PEEVES the POLTERGEIST
Peeves
is the resident poltergeist of Hogwarts School. A mean looking
little man with a wide, wicked grin and obnoxious, technicolor
clothing, Peeves floats around the school looking for, and causing,
mayhem and mischief. He greets the students at the start of the
year by dropping walking sticks and water balloons on their heads,
and is more harm then help when one is late for class. Even though
he is locked in eternal combat with the musty old caretaker Argus
Filch, Peeves will not hesitate to call Filch if he comes across
a student out of bed late at night. He delights in destruction
and discord, and was positively elated when Sirius Black caused
a ruckus by sneaking into the school. Peeves is utterly irreverent
and disrespectful, except to Dumbledore and the Bloody Baron.
He does show some measure of respect for the other teachers, except
when he initially met Professor Lupin. I'm sure his respect was
won after Peeves spent an afternoon with gum up his left nostril.....hee,
hee.
When Hogwarts was taken over by the evil Dolores Umbridge, Fred
and George Weasley, the 2nd best pranksters in the school, bade
Peeves to carry on 'giving her hell' for them. The one and only
time Peeves listened to a student, he did them proud.

"...a
door right next to him opened with a bang. Peeves the Poltergeist
came shooting out.
'Why, it's potty wee Potter!' cackled Peeves, knocking Harry's
glasses askew as he bounced past him. 'What's Potter up to?
Why's Potter lurking-'
Peeves stopped, halfway through a midair somersault."
