Dobby
Ron’s younger sister, who is in her first year at Hogwarts. Ginny idolizes Harry and gets nervous around him at the start of the book. When the Weasleys are buying books in Flourish and Blotts, Lucius covertly hides Tom Riddle’s diary within one of Ginny’s books. Ginny then pours her heart and soul into the diary’s pages, which allows Riddle to possess her. Ginny then (unknowingly to her) opens the Chamber of Secrets and controls the basilisk, using it to attack Muggle-born students. She starts to suspect that she may be involved in the attacks, and throws the book away. But when she sees that Harry has found the diary, she steals it back to prevent Riddle from possessing Harry. At the end of the book, Riddle forces Ginny to enter the Chamber of Secrets in order to lure Harry and Ron there, but Harry is able to rescue her and destroy Riddle.
