October 31st 1981, Voldemort moves against Dumbledore, rejecting the Prophecy and its implications. Dumbledore lost the duel to Voldemort, who became the Master of the Elder Wand. Voldemort kept the Death Stick as a trophy mistrustful of the wands addictive qualities. In a bloodless coup, the old Ministry was overthrown and the Order of the Phoenix fled into exile.

Two weeks prior to the Coup, Hadrian Potter was deemed to be a squib by the Headmaster of Hogwarts and left with his muggle aunt and uncle.
