Potter People
Harry Potter: Wizard
Since their deaths, Harry has lived with his nonmagical and thoroughly venal relatives, the Dursleys, when he is not at Hogwarts, his magic school. He is currently dealing with the latest death of someone close to him, Albus Dumbledore, the wizard headmaster of Hogwarts. Harry is in love with Ginny Weasley, the sister of one of his best friends, but has stopped seeing her because he doesn't want to endanger her life. The two eventually get back together.
In the last book, he's struck with a difficult task: find the pieces of Voldemort's soul and destroy them.

Ron Weasley: Wizard
There have been moments of friction, though, since Harry has more fame and more money, the lack of which is sometimes hard for Ron to take. There's romantic tension between Ron and Hermione, but the road to their true love has some bumps.

Hermione Granger: Witch
But in the end, she's right there in the thick of things. She and Ron followed Harry on his quest to vanquish Voldemort.

Lord Voldemort: Dark Wizard
Afraid of death, he separated his soul into pieces and hid most of them, so that no one could kill him without destroying all the fragments. Some of those pieces have already been destroyed, but Harry finds the rest in the final volume, "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows," and is able to destroy him.

Severus Snape: Wizard
At the end of "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince," it was Snape who uttered the fatal spell that killed Dumbledore. It later turns out that he was acting on Dumbledore's orders, and it was his love for Harry's mother, Lily, that drove him to join the Order of the Phoenix and to protect Harry.

Draco Malfoy: Wizard
While Harry still doesn't like him, by the sixth book Harry feels "the tiniest drop of pity" because he knows that Voldemort was making Draco do things under threat of death.

Ginny Weasley: Wizard
But Ginny is powerful -- just ask her brothers about the strength of some of the spells she's used on them!

The Dursleys: Muggles
They've never wanted Harry, but they took him in because Petunia is Harry's only relative on his mother's side, and powerful ancient magic ensured that Harry could not be harmed while in their home. Harry returns to their home one last time before setting off to destroy Voldemort's Horcruxes.

The Weasleys: Wizards
The Weasleys are also no strangers to tragedy. Arthur gets bitten by Voldemort's snake, Bill is attacked by the werewolf Fenrir Greyback, George loses an ear in battle and Fred dies in the final showdown at Hogwarts
