Why Harry has Conjuritus as an Adult

(1/5) > >>

seanham:
One thing that I found odd in Peace Talks and Battleground was Conjuritus. So here's my theory as to why Harry got Conjuritus as an adult (sorry if this was already posted). From my understanding, Conjuritus is mainly contracted by children. What if when Harry was growing up, Justin did something to Harry to dampen his power or set his power level back a few years? He has Conjuritus now because he is magically a child while physically an adult. This would explain why Harry never got Conjuritus as a child. Harry is surprisingly powerful for a wizard of his young age and is only growing stronger. If Justin wanted to control Harry, he would want to dampen Harry’s powers so Harry couldn’t overpower him or break out from his control (if he would have been successful in mind-controlling him).

BrainFireBob:
General view is that he caught it from Maggie, and is a sign Maggie is talented and about to start puberty (when power shows up). Harry, never having been exposed, had no immunity. He stays away from other wizards; Ebenezer would have had his case centuries ago.

Yeah, and in adults these childhood things are always more severe..

ZhonLord:
Agreed with Bob and Mira.  It's extremely commonplace for parents to catch something their kids have gotten from school or interacting with other kids.

I'm thinking this is a case of sword of truth power. Headaches come earliest to the most powerful Wizards. Chondritis might come in the most adolescent age of power not age of the child so I might agree with poster
