Ladislas Zamojski

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.

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.

Information regarding Ladislas Zamojski's physical appearance and personality has not been documented in any canonical or supplementary materials.

• 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).

• 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).

No information is available concerning Ladislas Zamojski's family, friends, or other personal relationships.

• 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.

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).
