======Ladislas Zamojski====== =====Introduction===== Ladislas Zamojski was a celebrated [[wizard]] and a highly skilled [[Chaser]] for the Polish National [[Quidditch]] Team. While not a character in the main narrative of the *Harry Potter* series, his renown in the wizarding world as a top-tier athlete earned him a place on a [[Famous Witches and Wizards Card]]. =====Biography===== Very little is known about Zamojski's life. His primary claim to fame is his career as a professional [[Quidditch]] player, where he served as a [[Chaser]] for [[Poland]]'s national team (video game, Pottermore). The specific years of his career and other biographical details, such as his education or family background, remain unrecorded. =====Physical Appearance and Personality===== Information regarding Ladislas Zamojski's physical appearance and personality has not been documented in any canonical or supplementary materials. =====Magical Abilities and Skills===== * **[[Quidditch]] Prowess:** Zamojski was an exceptionally talented [[Quidditch]] player. As a [[Chaser]], his role involved scoring goals with the [[Quaffle]], a position that requires excellent flying skills, agility, and teamwork. His inclusion on a [[Famous Witches and Wizards Card]] suggests he was considered one of the best and most famous players of his time (video game, Pottermore). =====Possessions===== * **[[Broomstick]]:** As a professional [[Quidditch]] player, Zamojski would have owned a high-quality [[broomstick]], though the specific model is unknown. * **[[Wand]]:** As a [[wizard]], he owned a [[wand]], but its characteristics (wood, core, length) are unknown. * **[[Famous Witches and Wizards Card]]:** Zamojski is featured on card number 47 in some supplementary materials. The card notes his status as a famous Polish [[Chaser]] (video game). =====Relationships===== No information is available concerning Ladislas Zamojski's family, friends, or other personal relationships. =====Etymology===== * The first name **Ladislas** is a Latinized form of the Slavic name Vladislav, which combines the elements //vlad// ("to rule") and //slav// ("glory"). It is a name historically associated with royalty and nobility in Central and Eastern Europe, particularly [[Poland]] and Hungary. * The surname **Zamojski** is a Polish toponymic surname meaning "from Zamość." The Zamoyski family was a prominent and influential house of Polish nobility. * Together, the name strongly suggests a background of Polish nobility and renown, fitting for a famous national sports hero. =====Behind the Scenes===== Ladislas Zamojski does not appear, nor is he mentioned, in the seven original //Harry Potter// novels by J.K. Rowling. His character was created for the collectible [[Famous Witches and Wizards Card]] series featured in the //Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone// video game. This is the original source of his identity as a Polish [[Chaser]]. The information about him was later solidified as part of the wider wizarding world through its inclusion on the Pottermore website (now Wizarding World).
