Mr Roberts

Mr Roberts operates the campsite where thousands of wizards gather for the 1994 Quidditch World Cup, though he remains completely unaware of the magical nature of his guests. As a Muggle managing what becomes the largest gathering of witches and wizards in decades, he finds himself increasingly suspicious of the peculiar behaviour surrounding him. His confusion grows as he witnesses tents that appear impossibly spacious from the outside and guests who seem utterly baffled by basic Muggle currency and camping equipment.

The campsite manager lives with his wife and two young children in accommodation on the grounds, making his family unwitting witnesses to one of the wizarding world’s most significant sporting events. Despite his growing bewilderment at the strange occurrences around his campsite, Roberts continues to carry out his duties with determination, though he frequently questions his guests about their unusual possessions and behaviour. Ministry officials repeatedly modify his memory to prevent him from discovering the truth about magic, leaving him in a perpetual state of confusion.

His situation becomes far more dangerous when Death Eaters attack the campsite following the World Cup final. The family suffers a terrifying ordeal as they are levitated and tormented by the dark wizards, who use them as entertainment in their reign of terror. This incident marks Roberts’ most significant encounter with the wizarding world, though like his previous experiences, the memories are likely modified or removed entirely by Ministry officials seeking to maintain the International Statute of Secrecy.
