Draco Malfoy
跩哥.馬份
Draco Malfoy grew up as an only child at Malfoy Manor, the magnificent mansion in Wiltshire which had been in his family's possession for many centuries. From the time when he could talk, it was made clear to him that he was triply special: firstly as a wizard, secondly as a pure-blood, and thirdly as a member of the Malfoy family.
數世紀來,威爾特郡那宏偉的馬份莊園都由馬份家族繼承著。跩哥.馬份便是以獨子的身份在那裡長大。從牙牙學語的時期開始,他便被灌輸著他是「三重特別」的觀念:第一是作為巫師,第二是作為純血,第三是作為馬份家族的一員。
Draco was raised in an atmosphere of regret that the Dark Lord had not succeeded in taking command of the wizarding community, although he was prudently reminded that such sentiments ought not to be expressed outside the small circle of the family and their close friends ‘or Daddy might get into trouble’. In childhood, Draco associated mainly with the pure-blood children of his father’s ex-Death Eater cronies, and therefore arrived at Hogwarts with a small gang of friends already made, including Theodore Nott and Vincent Crabbe.
跩哥是在一個對黑魔王未能成功掌控魔法世界感到遺憾的氣氛中長大的,不過他也被慎重地提醒過這種觀點不應在家族和摯友的小圈子以外表達,不然的話,「麻煩便會找到爸爸身上來」。在童年時期,跩哥主要與父親以前的食死徒同黨的純血子女來往,因此在到達霍格華茲時已經結交了一小群朋友,包括希爾多.諾特和文森.克拉。
Like every other child of Harry Potter’s age, Draco heard stories of the Boy Who Lived through his youth. Many different theories had been in circulation for years as to how Harry survived what should have been a lethal attack, and one of the most persistent was that Harry himself was a great Dark wizard. The fact that he had been removed from the wizarding community seemed (to wishful thinkers) to support this view, and Draco’s father, wily Lucius Malfoy, was one of those who subscribed most eagerly to the theory. It was comforting to think that he, Lucius, might be in for a second chance of world domination, should this Potter boy prove to be another, and greater, pure-blood champion. It was, therefore, in the knowledge that he was doing nothing of which his father would disapprove, and in the hope that he might be able to relay some interesting news home, that Draco Malfoy offered Harry Potter his hand when he realised who he was on the Hogwarts Express. Harry’s refusal of Draco’s friendly overtures, and the fact that he had already formed allegiance to Ron Weasley, whose family is anathema to the Malfoys, turns Malfoy against him at once. Draco realised, correctly, that the wild hopes of the ex-Death Eaters – that Harry Potter was another, and better, Voldemort – are completely unfounded, and their mutual enmity is assured from that point.
就像與哈利波特同年紀的每一位小孩一樣,跩哥在整個兒童成長時期都在聽「活下來的男孩」的故事。關於哈利怎樣在一個致命的攻擊下活下來,長年以來都有許多不同的說法流傳著,而其中一個最堅持的理論就是說哈利自己是一個偉大的黑魔法師。哈利被人帶離魔法世界的事實似乎(對於一廂情願的人來說)就在支持這個說法。而跩哥的父親—狡猾的魯休斯.馬份—就是最贊同這個理論的人之一。能令魯休斯感到安慰的想法是,假如這個姓波特的男孩確實是另一個更偉大的純血擁護者,他便有第二次嘗試統治世界的機會。因此,在知道他父親會支持的情況下,當跩哥馬份在霍格華茲快車上意識到他遇到了哈利波特時,向他伸出手,希望跟哈利波特來往時能帶一些有趣的消息回家。當哈利拒絕了跩哥友誼的邀請,還已經結交了從被馬份家討厭的衛斯里家來的榮恩.衛斯里時,馬份便成為了他的死對頭。跩哥正確無誤地意識到,前食死徒們的奢望—哈利波特是另一個更完美的佛地魔—是亳無根據的。而他們雙方之間的敵意也從這一刻起確立了。
Draco had many surnames before I settled on ‘Malfoy’. At various times in the earliest drafts he is Smart, Spinks or Spungen. His Christian name comes from a constellation - the dragon - and yet his wand core is of unicorn.
在確定使用「馬份(Malfoy)」之前,跩哥曾有過很多個姓。在最早的草稿中,不同時候他曾經是Smart(譯:醒目)、Spinks或Spungen。他的教名是由一個星座—天龍座—而來,他的魔杖杖心卻是從獨角獸來的。
