Deathly Hallows question...?

Question

Does the Taboo on Voldemort's name work under a Fidelius Charm?

Answer 1

Well... it says in the book that 'saying the name out loud breaks protective charms'. Fidelius charm is a protective charm, so the taboo would work under it, I guess.



I'm sure whatever Voldemort did, he'd want it to be perfect.. If people wanted to be protected they wouldn't go for anything lesser than a Fidelius charm. If the Taboo didn't work under it, there would hardly be a purpose for it, would there?



The Taboo was primarily meant to trace Order members. The Headquarters, it is well-known, is protected by the Fidelius charm. So, naturally, Voldemort would have devised a way to make the Taboo break it.

Answer 2

I am a devout fan and I am not quite sure what you are asking.

The Fidelius charm is a charm involving secret information hidden within the soul of a Secret-Keeper. This information is irretrievable until the Secret-Keeper chooses to reveal it; those who have the secret revealed to them cannot reveal it to others.

I am not sure how the taboo on Voldy's name would or would not apply with a fidelius charm.

What information would someone be trying to conceal? What's the secret? That a taboo exists? If that was the case then the about rule would apply.

I am sorry, I am trying to piece this together.....maybe if the question was rephrased? :)

Answer 3

I think that based on the fact that the charms that Hermione was using to protect their campsite failed when Harry said Voldemort's name, that the Fidelius charm would probably be breached in the same manner and the house would no longer have its protections.

Answer 4

Prolly, b/c the snatchers still found Harry, Hermione, and Ron even with all the protection Hermione put around the place.

Answer 5

Maybe. By the way, I'm still doing OWLS so I wouldn't really know. You should ask my brother, he passed NEWTS years ago and was Outstanding in most of his subjects. Shame he refused the job at the Ministry to play for Puddlemere United instead! But then again, at least I get free Quidditch tickets...

Answer 6

no way.the fidelius charm is used to hide a person or a secret or something. you cant hide yourself saying voldmorts name
