dumbledore's age

durinsbane2244 · 05-26-2006, 11:49 AM

think about it...he was a teacher when riddle was 16, he was headmaster when riddle was an adult...voldemort is about 60something...HOW OLD IS DUMBLEDORE?!?!

jammi567 · 05-26-2006, 12:03 PM

i think i read somewhere that he was about 150 at the time of his death.

durinsbane2244 · 05-26-2006, 12:06 PM

yeah...either he was WAY hardcore, or he and flamel were having a few shots one night...

eh? what are you talking about.

rohirrim TR · 05-26-2006, 05:55 PM

Nick Flamel the ageless chemist guy, yeah i'll bet Flamel hooked him up with some homebrew if you get my meaning.

jammi567 · 05-26-2006, 06:20 PM

You. Are. Discusting(sp).

durinsbane2244 · 05-29-2006, 07:20 PM

1. disgusting. 2. as in...you know...the elixer of life...all that hype about it in the first book...

There's something wrong in either Flamel or Dumbledore's ages: that is unless Dumbledore himself is 500 years old.

We know Flamel is over 600 years old. He could live this long becuase of the Philosopher's stone. It is also stated that Dumbledore helped him make the stone. Therefore, Dumbledore lived 550 years ago?

Which is probably not true, becuase as far as we know Dumbledore did not take the elixir. A mistake perhaps?

durinsbane2244 · 05-30-2006, 08:34 AM

BUM BUM BUUUUUUUM!!! good observation, rad!

tolkienfan · 05-30-2006, 01:09 PM

I know there was a thread about that somewhere.

edit: I looked it up, it's called sorcerers stone.

durinsbane2244 · 05-30-2006, 02:30 PM

wait...what? there's a thread called the sorcerer's stone?

jammi567 · 05-30-2006, 03:11 PM

maybe dumbledore used a timeturner.

I don't think it's possible to go in the past with Time Turner that much. Besides I don't believe two Dumbledores lived during the next 500 years.

Edit - http://entmoot.com/showthread.php?t=11451 - the thread tolkienfan mentioned.

I remembered there was such a thread.

durinsbane2244 · 05-30-2006, 05:45 PM

ah, thank you...also, a time turner would explain the blackened hand, all that wrist turning...

strider8 · 05-31-2006, 09:43 AM

Flamel could have created the first stone that only extended life. Wit DD help Flamel could have improved it so that it turned metal into gold.

Unless DD and Flamel made 2 stones while they were younger and they destroyed Flamel's but kept DD's. If so why didn't DD share his stone with Flamel? Or did they and Flamel never Die?

durinsbane2244 · 05-31-2006, 06:45 PM

this is a poser, eh? anyone know Rowling's P.O. box? anyone?

jammi567 · 06-16-2006, 12:59 PM

not anything to do with his age excactly, but still something major to do with him, and i didn't know where else to put it, so here it is. Also to do with a certain other character...

Mad or what.

durinsbane2244 · 06-16-2006, 05:44 PM

i shall read it than...

rohirrim TR · 06-16-2006, 05:54 PM

that'd be creepy.

jammi567 · 06-16-2006, 06:10 PM

Totally.
