Answer 1

Yes, Dobby is from Harry Potter.



Dobby is a house-elf. A house elf is basically a slave to a wizard or wizard family. He is freed when given clothes. Dobby was owned by the Malfoy family, freed when Harry put a sock in a book, which he gave to Mr. Malfoy, who in turn gave it to Dobby. So Dobby is a free elf, who spends his life forever doing favors for Harry Potter. He works at Hogwarts when not with Harry.

Answer 2

He is from Harry Potter indeed.

Here's his story.

In the second book, Harry comes in to find him on his bed. He is this werid little creature with tennis ball green and big ears.He tells Harry he is honored to meet him when Harry says sit down he starts banging his head on stuff and Uncle Vernon comes up and yells at Harry. Then Harry realizes Dobby has been stopping his mail and keeping the letters for himself. Dobby doesn't want Harry to go back to Hogwarts for some unknown reason. When Harry refuses to say 'no I am not going back' Dobby rushes from the room and plops a cake on some ladies head. Then Harry gets a letter saying he used a hovering charm which is not to be used for under age wizards. all through the second book, Dobby is trying to 'save Harry' when really he's hurting him. But at the end of the 2nd book, Dobby's masters the Malfoy's come and order him back. But Harry sets him free by giving him a sock (which is the only way to set an house elf free is to give them an article of clothing) so yeah.

In the fourth book, Dobby helps him get through a task. In the seventh he saves Harry and his friends but then dies :(

Answer 3

Draco Malfoy's family house elf, who is abused by them. He was freed when Harry tricked Malfoy's father into giving him one of Harry's socks, as a gift is the mechanism by which elves get their freedom. The father (Lucius) was furious but Dobby is extra-devoted to Harry now.

Answer 4
