The REAL Reason Nagini Turned EVIL - Harry Potter Theory

Welcome to Harry Potter Theory. Today we’re discussing Voldemort’s faithful pet (and Horcrux) Nagini. More specifically, we'll be addressing why the seemingly kind-hearted woman turned pure EVIL.
Alright, so, most of you will know Nagini from the original Harry Potter novels and films. She was an enormous snake and an unquestionably loyal servant of Lord Voldemort, who he often kept close at hand to help him carry out his dirty work…you know, eating the odd witch or wizard, attacking Members of the Order of the Phoenix, and the likes of that. Of course, as we find out in the final installment of the series, Nagini is also one of Voldemort’s seven Horcruxes - which is likely another reason he kept her nearby at all times. (That was why according to Albus Dumbledore, at least.)
Anyway, being that Voldemort, born Tom Marvolo Riddle, was a descendant of Salazar Slytherin, he possessed the ability to speak parseltongue - an extremely rare language that, put plainly, meant that he could talk to snakes. His ability to communicate with Nagini further shows why they would’ve had a close bond, and perhaps explains Voldemort’s reasoning behind making Nagini a Horcrux in the first place. Here was a creature that he could speak to but who couldn’t betray his confidence in the way a human could. But wouldn’t it be a bit dicey to LITERALLY put your life in the hands - err, scales - of a snake? Well, here’s where Nagini’s backstory gets interesting: she actually used to be a woman.

I suspect that she actually loved Credence more than just a friend and when he most likely dies in the next fantastic beasts she blames his death on the Dumbledores. Her loss mixed with blaming them and then her madness stuck as a snake I bet she thought that by trying to help Voldemort it might give her revenge on the Dumbledores combined with loosing her humanity stuck in the snakes mind

When under Imperio, one's "Moral Compass" gets totally dodged & bypassed... getting permanently stuck in a Animal Body with a Animal Brain could conceivably have a comparable effect. The higher I.Q. & Cognitive parts of Human Nagini wouldn't be able to fit or operate in a Snake Brain so thus could be permanently lost. It's hard to tell if Human Nagini & Perma-Snake Nagini can even be regarded as the same entity...

I think it was a little bit of both. First it reminds me of Remus Lupin, in his werewolf form he’s pure beast “willing to kill his best friend…” unable to control his actions but, if I remember right, he still knew/remember what he done in that form. Nagini unfortunately remained in beast mode, forever thinking like a snake which made it easier for Voldemort, a parsaltongue, to befriend her which led to her going dark
@hajime5486
@hajime5486 Год назад
I'm going to throw my hat in the ring. I don't think she was ever evil. If she turned into a snake and not changing back to human my theory is her brain probably switched to only reptile brain which is very hunter instinct. It's more of a snake brain mixed with Tommy's tongue that made her what she was at the end
@AhHereWeGo

The other horcruxes have an evil aura about them that effects the mood and thoughts of anyone who handles it for any extended amountof time. Harry is the only one who does not and the only one that did not spend a significant amount of time in voldemort's possession immediately before and after the horcrux charm. Perhaps there is a connection there.
@rpggamerguy9139
@rpggamerguy9139 Год назад
I don't think Nagini is evil, instead I think she doesn't have a choice. Here's why I say this. Remember in the second book/movie right before Harry found out he was a parseltongue? When Malfoy summoned the Cobra he told the snake not to attack Justin Finch-Fletchley. The snake obeyed, despite its clear indication that it was ready to strike Justin. So, I think having parseltounge gives the person the ability to not only speak to snakes, but to control them to a degree.
@hmm-technikOrganizacjiReklamy
In the first book he learns that there is a wake. talking to a snake at the zoo. As for control I do not think like you. I find it interesting. But I have doubts whether the theory is true and why do I think it is not so? Morfin. wind the snake for Morphine because it will nail to the door. there is already one snake hanging, which means he was not obedient
@ariesinravenclaw4644
@ariesinravenclaw4644 Год назад
I don’t think Harry had control of the snake, he was simply telling the snake not to attack but the snake kept edging & looking back at the boy, giving Snape enough time to disintegrate it
@bearsbeetsbattlestargalactica6
I agree. Looking back at Dumbledore’s memory of meeting Tom in the orphanage, Tom says blatantly he can control animals without training them. I don’t know if being a parseltongue in and of itself made that possible, but definitely I agree it had something to do with it
@CorruptCris03
@CorruptCris03 Год назад
When a maledictus is stuck as their animal form they loose their ability to think as a human, which most likely means they also loose all memory they had as a human as they are now stuck as a beast. Nagini becoming evil is most likely due to that fact that her snake mind is following the orders of someone who can talk to her. Also due to the fact that her lifespan isn't shortened, much like an animagus, Voldemort probably saw it as an advantage as he could keep her around without worrying about her dying of old age

A maledictus gradually loses the ability to think like a human - that's why they become trapped as a beast. It is the human mind which controls the transformation, from person to beast and back to person. There comes a point where the human mind has slipped away so much that all there is left is a beast; lacking the capacity or even memory of how to change back. When this happened to Nagini, the whisper of the woman was trapped for short while before she disappeared altogether. Nagini the woman was effectively dead by the time Voldemort came along. The beast retained vestiges of the woman such as intelligence higher than other snakes, and a name, but that's all the dark wizard interacted with. A serpent. Nagini, and the beast with the same name, were two different beings.

I disagree with you. Having a friendly relationship with an evil person, doesn't have to turn you into evil yourself. Just like Buffy and Spike, wrong franchise I know but still an example. No I think it had two stages: 1.Losing the love of her life Aurelius. The only one she could have called a friend until his condition killed him. 2.Once the curse took over. She was forced to live possibly 5 or 6 decades without someone to talk with and lost any shade of humanity within her until she met Voldemort. That is horrible and probably drove her mad to the point when she said to herself- "Why should I be good? What good gave to me? Screw everything and everyone." And once she met him she regained purpose in life, even if it's a life as a Snake. He must have promised her that he will revert her back to human once they win. So if he did I think she felt obligated which donated to her being evil.

I think your theory has merits, it is a very good theory but I know what it's like to be left alone, in iso, you yearn for company, and you get desperate, so you become friends with anyone just so that you have someone to talk to. I've been in iso for a few months since my mum became immunocomprimised, i can still see people, and iso is still driving me crazy, you want to be company with anyone. And I've just been like that for a few months. Imagine what it's like for DECADES. You would get desperate and lonely and driven mad until you finally find a person who understands you, who talks with you and doesn't just ghost you because you are in iso. It's hard.

You're sort of assuming his argument is incorrect based on a premise he never states. I don't think the argument here is that Nagini became evil because she had a relationship with Voldemort, but instead because of the content of that relationship. I think your point is actually part of his argument. Nagini's isolation coupled with the terrible acts and the terrible thoughts and opinions Voldemort likely shared with her, would have made Nagini evil over the years. Like a small sampling of a drug leading to an addiction.

A person or an animal becoming a Horcrux will end up living forever if not killed. Voldemort persuaded Nagini to become Horcrux and in the meantime gain some time to find a way to revert the curse. Nagini agreed. He followed Voldemort for various reasons: she had years to communicate with someone, she was flattered by the possibility to live forever as a Horcrux and she was persuaded by a super powerful dark Lord that her curse would revert. In addition to all this, Voldemort shared with her the secret that he at least made one Horcrux, her. This enhanced her persuasion as it includes some sort of emotion by him.

I think you are very right when you say that Nagini became evil because she had someone to talk to. I know a similar situation. I have been in iso for several months now (family member is immunocomprimised so it is very likely they will die if they get covid) and I can tell you it gets very lonely, you do anything for company with someone, and I'm not even completely isolated. I still have my family so I can't even begin to fathom how Nagini felt. She probably would have been driven into madness way before Voldemort came. I've been in iso for a few MONTHS and I can still see my friends, and I'm already starting to go slightly crazy, maybe I'll have random times where I just get angry, but it must be 100 times worse for Nagini.its sad

In my own opinion, doesn’t have to be the fact, I think she just became a cold-hearted woman and gave up the idea of ever finding a cure for the maldictious (sorry I spelled it wrong). Being heartbroken and pretty much living in a cruel environment, Nagini just turned away from humanity and shot-down the idea of love ever again. Voldemort- I’m going to call him V for this comment- to her she would feel envious for not being able to feel love. Nagini couldn’t stand it nor ever wants to find one. I guess V gives her respect and loyalty in the Wizarding World. Whatever that can make her useful as a snake, V gave her the opportunity of not being anything but worthless or weak. She has been looking out for herself, but V became someone she can live for: protecting his soul and never be looked as anything worthless or a show of entertaining as a pet.

The movie suffered for it, not sure what direction its going in tbh. This story line had so much potential to be great but movies as of late just dont seem to be as compelling as 10-12 years ago. Retconing spells and bits of information that conflict with the original is just malpractice. Hopefully they can conclude Albus and Newts story well enough to be rewatchable.

I've imagined lately that there was some reason for her to want to protect Riddle at first, and by the time she realized just how evil he was, it was too late. Perhaps her transformations into a snake specifically came from being a descendent of Salazar Slytherin, and she saw Riddle as family, and thus someone to protect and watch over. Eventually, it becomes an abusive relationship from which she can't bring herself to leave, because she's too tightly tied to Voldemort through the fragment of her soul trapped in her body. Slowly, the connection drives her completely mad, the woman's personality retreating behind the instincts of the snake in order to protect what remains of her consciousness from the horrible things she's forced to do.

I have a different take on Nagini. I don't see her as "evil", but amoral. Animals are neither evil...nor good...they are either wild or domesticated...and are either trained well or poorly....and trained to harm or help. Nagini may have held on to her humanity for a long time...but eventually, she WAS a snake. Any part that was human, apart from intellect, was completely and forever lost. So, while i contend she was not evil, neither did she feel remorse or any human connection to her or Voldemort's actions. It simply WAS. And she was trainable.. all snakes understand Parselmouth...so Voldemort's ability to train....and appear kindred in spirit...sets Nagini on this ultimate path of "evil deeds" with a superior intelligence to carry out those orders. But, you have to know good to know you are evil; it's a choice between the two. She was unable to understand this concept.

Im curious as to what Voldemort's reaction would be if he had met Nagini in her human form

At first I was agreeing with the comments about Nagini losing her human thoughts and has snake brain and can't really control attacking people. However in that case why wouldn't she have attacked Voldemort in the woods? Snakes attack anything they feel threatened by and anything that is food. And if it's because of his parseltongue controlling her then why wouldn't Harry be able to control the snake trying to attack him in the chamber of secrets? So I definitely feel like there was some kind of convincing that happened and maybe Nagini had more cognitive ability than we think

I think when she became a snake forever She slowly started to think like one and they kill with no remorse when upset or Aggravated, on meeting Voldemort talking to him she could get worse

I’d say being trapped as a snake made her angry. However, on its own would not have made her evil. I believe it was her relationship with Voldemort. That was her true, turning point, as far as when she became evil. Even before he turned her into a Horcrux. That only made matters much worse.

I was hoping Fantastic Beasts 2-5 would answer the question over time, but unfortunately, they half-assed the second one, quarter-assed the third (without even putting her in it), and we're not likely to get four and five.

As a cold blooded creature/tropical snake, how could she survive in Bulgaria? And boas/anacondas do not have venom. Sure, they bite, but they kill by constriction. This never made sense to me

i believe you are looking at this one sidewise. was nagini evil? or just an animal? as several said, she probably lost her human thought process after the years as a snake. and voldy could of just been saying "eat, you are hungry , i brought you food" and i do believe being the horcrux soured her a bit... after all she was one for a lot longer than harry

To be honest, Nagini is part of the reason I really disliked fantastic beasts Ii. I really enjoyed the first film as the quest of a magizoologist getting back his stolen creatures, but it couldn't be left at that. Leta Lestrange, Dumbledor's random missing brother, the series just couldn't leave harry potter alone. I was quite happy with Magini as an evil snake, there was no need to give her some sort of strange tragic past; and why the hell would wizards who can transform themselves find someone like nagini fascinating in a circus anyway. it just felt like needless extra plot to tie everything to harry potter. I wonder if in the next film, we'll meet Lupin's grandfather who it turns out was a pet wolf owned by Arthur Weasly's cousin or some such other convoluted nonsense! Don't get me wrong, I love the Harry potter books, and enjoy most of the films, but if we're to have new stories of the wizarding world, let them be new stories, with new characters', don't tie every single litel fiddling detail back to Harry Potter for no reason. As far as I'm concerned Nagini is voldemort's evil snake, justly beheaded by the couragious Nevil Longbottom, and needed no more backstory than that!

In the lore, male maledicti lose their humanity as they lose their ability to transform and are locked into their animal forms, but I wonder if it is the pure result of the curse, or if it is the psychological and social factors of no longer being able to interact with other humans that leads to a such a change in personality. Could it be either/or, a bit of both, the latter being a catalyst to the former?

I don't think she ever really became evil, because it's quite well understood that if animagi stay too long in their animal forms they actually lose some of their human cognitive abilities, and even more so for maledictus who are permanently stuck in that animal form and lose their 'human' self. So if we were to assume she met voldemort when she was already a snake all the time... then that just means a snake being told what to do (in a language they understand) by their owner. More of an unfortunate circumstance to me.

I don’t think Nagini was evil. She was a snake, perhaps with more sentience than most, but a snake nevertheless. Even the snake in the zoo (SS/PS) could “talk” to Harry, but we didn’t even think to call it “good” or “evil”. Like any pet, Nagini was happy to do the bidding of her master in order to please him and gain acceptance and approval. Voldemort was indeed a psychopath and sociopath-evil. I blame her actions on him, not on any inherent or learned evilness of her own.

I've not upto now heard this theory being mentioned though it may have? Finding out that Harry is a horcrux could that have had an impact on the Dursley's with the hate they all shown him being with the horcrux all of Harry's life, like we learnt mostly learnt when Ron wore the horcrux around his neck it turned him darker and a weight was lifted off Harry and hermarnie (I know I spelt her name wrong) just thought?
@Aedren
@Aedren Год назад
I don't think she was/would become evil by her own. Not trusting humans and attacking them while she felt threatened? Yes, that I think would be more likely. I rather think she became evil thanks due Voldemort, as she could feel being accepted by him, as Voldemort could try and make her feel being understood.
