How Isidora Betrayed The Keepers And Turned Evil (All Keepers Memories) - Hogwarts Legacy 2023

It's always the defence against dark arts teacher

That teacher didnt think twice, that avada kedabra came from his soul

You know I’m starting to realize that most of the wizarding worlds problems could be solved or prevented by a strong mental health system, therapy, and not blatantly oblivious educational professionals

I was kind of hoping this would be an origin story for the creation of the Dementors. The magic takes away a persons's pain, but the after effects sap all other emotions and the residual magic that remains, transforms the victim into a vessel that feeds upon the emotions of others.

Can we talk for a minute about how terrifying it was that Isadora didn’t die instantly? She took the killing curse dead on and clung on for a moment before succumbing. Can you imagine what she would become if she was allowed to keep absorbing pain? Voldy would’ve been a squib compared to her.

Am I the only one who thought she'd be a surprise final boss at the end?

The professor who did the killing curse literally show them how shit must be done

I see Anakin Skywalker in Isidora. He turned to the Dark Side because the Jedi didn't know how to address/deal with his suffering over losing his mother and provide what he really needed.

Isidora experiments with children and makes them emotional zombies. Players: "Wow, she must be a good person. It is the Keepers who are villains. "

In my opinion, this magic that Isidora discovered is reminiscent of an addictive drug. Once you start it, you embrace the good you feel, the power you think you have. You can't stop after that first taste. You don't want to give it up. Isidora saw the good in it, but was blind to the harm it was doing. Her father, her students, and her colleagues were all affected by how obsessed she was. Those that were affected by her "dark magic" (save for Niamh) became shells of themselves because they "gave in to that dark magic". They accepted that drug, and look what became of them. She would do anything to preserve it and wanted everyone to see her perspective. But she didn't see that pain (and subsequently emotions) was a two way street. Pain can bring sadness, agony, and despair, but without it, one won't be able to experience the light at the end of it (happiness, love, joy). They're two sides of the same coin, one can't exist without the other. True, her father was grieving, but all he needed was more love and support. Grief isn't about pain. It's about healing. Isidora was blind to that. And look what happened to her. Her own ambition and obsession with power killed her in the end. The developers of this game did a great job portraying this. I made my character make sure to keep this magic hidden. It's too dangerous to be released.

Its quite a tragedy really. I believe Isidora had good intentions in the beginning, but where the keepers failed was to check on her and get her the proper help/therapy she needed before she became obssessed. She clearly carried pain herself for her father and the death of her brother. I dont know if taking a person's pain is morally right or wrong, but where Isidora messed up was overy using it. I believe when she removed her father's pain the first time he was generally fine. But as time went on, she started to take any type of pain, emotional, physical, etc out of her father and thats what turned him emotionless.

I thought the Keepers would be the ones revealed to be “evil.” We kept seeing everything through their memories, not Isidora’s. And Isidora’s painting was the only one that was destroyed, so we never get a chance to speak with her directly. So I thought maybe there’d be that twist, that the Keepers were guiding the player to unlock their ancient magic for some nefarious purpose. But then in the end the story just went with the old “she got drunk with power” theme.

I was watching this for the first time with my friends, and when they were locked in a duel with OP Isidora, I said out loud "I would use avada kedavra." And in three seconds, the professor Gigachad Bakhar said "AVADA KEDAVRA!" I lost it, that's how dark wizards are defeated!

I knew she was gonna be evil the moment I learned her name is Isidora. What a way to traumatize your child early on.

It isnt dark magic, its ancient magic that little is understood about, twisted by a person misguided by pain.

Isidora's intentions were good, but had corrupt methods

The moment they showed us what she was doing, I knew she was a lost cause. Taking emotions away is never a wise idea, whether it's good or bad emotions.

I know Isidora's evil at the end, but my reaction to Bakar using the killing curse went along the same lines as Solomon Sallow's reaction to Imperio: "Unforgivable Curses are so named for a reason".

I don't think the use of Ancient Magic is evil, just what you choose to do with it - a Ravenclaw btw
