    I'd make mine a random bit of a satellite they send into deep space. Impossible to get back. Like the voyager satellite and hope it doesn't get pulled into a star or a random space rock...

    Lets see, if I was twisted, it would be Dumbledore's lemon drop bowl. Maybe the magic could seep into the candy to cause the meddling fool to become senile.

    If I was practical, I would use something like one of the quidditch hoops on the pitch. Idiots would never think to tear it down, or Big Ben, The Washington Monument, Statue of Liberty or some other 'landmark'. Perhaps even one of the large stones at Stonehenge.

    I know this was used in some story, but I would likely make mine a galleon. it is a fair bit of money so nobody is likely to melt it down.
    Also, there are so many out there, how do you know which one it is?
    You could also put it into a vault, then you get the goblins protecting it, dragons protecting it, the Ministry would protect Gringotts, and thus your horcrux (oh the irony).
    And really, who would think that you would make a galleon into a horcrux, it is not something that you would think of.

    I'd personally make mine the Mona Lisa or something equally important. Nobody would dare destroy such a valuable piece of history.

    I'd enchant an Atom. Yes, an atom. And then I would let it free, amongst the birds and the bees, with the horizon in the distance, and freedom..

    err...back on track, eh? Yeah, the point is to be able to retrieve it easily.

    I wouldn't trust a henchman with it, unless they were intelligent, and had sworn (magical oath) loyalty to me. Then I'd turn their cane into a Horcrux, and they could walk about everywhere with me, and if I died, it'd be a quick fix :)

    On a side note...why the fuck did it take 12 years for Lucius to think "ZOMG my Master is gathering dust in the deep reaches of my library!" ???

    FRRRREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEDDDDDDDDDOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!

    It's possible that he didn't know that the diary actually housed a piece of Voldemort's soul. Maybe he just thought it was enchanted or something.

    That's my guess, if he knew what it really was, he would have likely took more care of it and used it sooner

    Ideal Horcrux?

    I would use a Mirror of Erised. It would be easy to use wasted lives of victims of the mirror to recreate maine body. Also it would be far to easy to use victims desires to manipulate them and possesed them.

    hmm

    I'd use a red gem, to replace one of eyes in the gargoyle guarding the entrance to the headmasters office.

    The cell membrane of a harmless bacteria. When bacteria divide, they keep some of the cell membrane of the original. And since bacteria divide very quickly, it'd keep on dividing and eventually cover the world with a tiny bit of the original horcrux membrane inside. It'd be easy to find - just point at the ground and there's a bit of my soul. But first I'd give it some time to divide - a week or so in the capitol.

    Um, perhaps when they seperate the horcux is destroyed though. That's best idea yet anyway.

    Hey, mabey the mirror of Erised is the Horocrux of Puff? People 'waste' away in front of it and it is inheritnly evil I guess, it kills people don't it?

    Me.... Damnit Yarrgh I was going to use that one. I'd probably use a small silver ball about the size of a marble, shrink it, then implant it in my foot. Then charm my coffin with anti-grave robber charms. Then key in a 'trusted' (as in a close relaitive) to the coffin.

    Or mabey tie it to my bloodline and be like a super myth/god legend... 'And when the family is in dire need, turn toward the great fathers tome.'

    I mean you'd have to be pretty powerful to even make one right?

    My Horcrux... there's no rule that says it can't be a living being, correct? I'd put a Horcrux into a person. Probably the person most precious to my archenemy, because I'd surely have one if I were evil and powerful enough to make a Horcrux. I don't know what's involved in destroying one, but it would probably be a lot of pain if not death for the Horcrux-person. Think about it. Make my enemy kill the person they love the most, or at least put them through hellish pain or disfigure them, in order to kill me.

    Umm, how many horcuxes are you planning to have. lol. If were playing that way then I'm going to make every nuetron, proton, electron my horcuxes.

    Or hogwarts, that would be cool. Better yet, my wand.

    I'd make a Horxrux for every single person I'd kill. Until the world would be down to half it's population with the remaining half inhabited by minute fraction's of my soul. -thumbs up.-

    And then everytime a new generation came up the two small pieces of my soul in the father and mother would come together and form into a stronger piece of soul. And it'd go on and on, until I have thousands of replica's of my soul. ^_^

    ^That is what I meant.

    P.S I don't care how deformed my soul is btw, It isn't doing anything else so it may serve a purpose.

    So what is the point of having a Horcrux when all the opposition is dead? I mean, sure you will need one or two to remain immortal just in case, but if you are just going to kill have the world; and part of what is left has to be your followers..... I just don't see the point, no one could oppose you, thus it would be pointless. And if some one did ever try to oppose you, you would be killing yourself, because anyone who does has part of our soul in them....

    If I were to create a Horcux and hide it. It would have to be another person made immortal by a Horcrux, then if one of you ever died, the other could help them regain there body, and vice versa.

    True my original idea wouldn't work... I would make it water. And hide it in more water.
