Pandora[6] Lovegood (died c. 1990)[2] was a British witch who was married to Xenophilius Lovegood, the editor of The Quibbler, and with him had one child, Luna Lovegood.[3] Pandora died in either 1990 or 1991 when her own spell backfired, when Luna was nine.[6]
Harry saw a photo of Luna and Pandora while visiting the Lovegoods' house. In this picture Luna looked more well-groomed than Harry had ever seen her. This suggested that Pandora was not as absent-minded as Xenophilius, or that Luna's mother was more demanding about her personal appearance. If this is true it opposed Luna's father, who was generally known as a scruffy, unkempt man.[7]
According to her daughter, Pandora was an extraordinary witch who liked to experiment with spells. One day in 1990 or 1991, one of these experiments went wrong, killing her in a "horrible" manner in front of Luna, who was subsequently able to see Thestrals because of it. Luna told Harry Potter that she continued to feel sad about her mother's death from time to time but believed that she would see her again after death.[3]
Luna apparently had a large photograph beside her bed at home depicting her and her mother hugging. Pandora was described in the photo as looking very much like her daughter.[7] Many years later, Pandora Lovegood would posthumously become the maternal grandmother to Lorcan and Lysander, the sons of Luna and Rolf Scamander.[8]
