Dylan Marwood

Dylan Marwood is a Hufflepuff student attending Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry during the 1890s. He is known for his great affection for Magical Creatures, particularly his business of breeding and caring for Puffskeins. All information regarding this character originates from the video game Harry Potter: Hogwarts Legacy and he does not appear in the original seven novels.

During the 1890-1891 school year, Dylan Marwood could be found in the Hogwarts greenhouse annex, where he tended to his growing family of Puffskeins (video game). He ran a small business breeding a unique variety he called “Puffskein Dunns” and intended to sell them (video game). Marwood expressed concern that his creatures were getting restless due to being cooped up. He enlists the help of a fellow fifth-year student to find a more suitable and spacious den for them to live in. After a suitable location is found, he expresses his gratitude and continues his creature-breeding enterprise (video game).

Dylan Marwood is a young wizard with a kind and somewhat anxious disposition. He wears the standard Hogwarts uniform with yellow and black accents, indicating his placement in Hufflepuff house (video game). His primary personality trait is his deep care and passion for Magical Creatures. He is gentle, responsible, and shows entrepreneurial spirit in his endeavor to breed and sell Puffskeins. He is also trusting of others, as shown by his willingness to ask a fellow student for help with his beloved creatures (video game).

As a student at Hogwarts, Dylan Marwood possesses foundational magical abilities appropriate for his age. His most prominent skill lies in Magizoology, specifically the care and breeding of Puffskeins. He demonstrates a detailed understanding of their behavior and needs (video game). There is no information regarding his wand, Patronus form, or proficiency in specific spells.

• Puffskeins: Marwood is the owner and breeder of numerous Puffskeins, which he affectionately cares for and hopes to sell (video game).
• Wand: As a Hogwarts student, he would have owned a wand, though its specifications are unknown.

Dylan Marwood appears to be on friendly terms with the protagonist of Hogwarts Legacy, whom he trusts to help him with a sensitive task involving his creatures (video game). As a member of Hufflepuff, he is part of a house known for loyalty, patience, and fair play.

• Dylan: A traditional Welsh name meaning “great tide” or “son of the sea.”
• Marwood: An English surname of locational origin, possibly derived from the Old English (ge)mære meaning “boundary” and wudu meaning “wood.” This connection to “wood” or nature could be a subtle nod to his interest in Magical Creatures.
