Brief History: Pansy Parkinson is a Slytherin student who is described as pug-faced and frequently seen with an unnamed gang of Slytherin girls who she is the leader of. She's the vague love-interest of Draco Malfoy, despite never really doing much other than following him around, petting his hair, and other things of the like. She is first mentioned in the Sorting in Sorcerer's Stone, and makes her first appearance in Madam Hooch's flying class, during which she teases Parvati Patil for defending Neville Longbottom after Draco steals Longbottom's Remembrall. Biiiiiitch. In Prisoner of Azkaban, she cries and follows Malfoy to the hospital wing after he is attacked by Buckbeak, in typical drama-queen Pansy style. Malfoy exaggerates the extent of his injury something fierce, but does that stop her from fawning over him? Oh no. Not in the least. They attended the Yule Ball together in Goblet of Fire, and on the train ride to Hogwarts at the start of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, she is seen stroking Malfoy's hair. She was quite impressed by his claims, which speaks to her own desire (or at least potential desire) for social advancement -- after all, as his girlfriend and potential future wife, he's not the only one who rises.

Throughout the series, Pansy regularly mocks Harry and his companions. She gives false information on Harry, Hermione, and Hagrid to Rita Skeeter, and openly voices criticisms of Hagrid to Umbridge about the displeasure of his Care of Magical Creatures class and the difficulty of understanding his voice. She and other Slytherins also taunt the Gryffindor Quidditch players from the stands during a morning practice, notably teasing Angelina Johnson about her braided hair. During a Gryffindor-Slytherin match, which is also Ron's debut as the new Gryffindor Keeper, she conducts the Slytherin students as they sing a demeaning song titled "Weasley is our King."

Pansy has a moderately increased role in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix. She is made a Slytherin prefect along with Malfoy, and later joins Dolores Umbridge's Inquisitorial Squad. When Dumbledore's Army flees the Room of Requirement following Dobby's revelation of an informant, Pansy searches the girls' bathrooms for escaped members and seizes Hermione's list of names as evidence. However, the Inquisitorial Squad members are jinxed in the midst of a student rebellion following Fred and George Weasley's departure from Hogwarts; she is hospitalised and misses a day's worth of lessons after sprouting a pair of antlers. Near the conclusion of Deathly Hallows, when Voldemort demands Harry's surrender in order to prevent the Death Eaters from attacking Hogwarts, Pansy urges Minerva McGonagall to comply, and the Gryffindors, Ravenclaws and Hufflepuffs collectively respond by standing up and pointing their wands at her. She eventually evacuates with the other Slytherins rather than staying to fight.
