Harry Potter uses the Marauder's Map to track the comings and goings of people at Hogwarts castle.
How the Map Works
  • Creation: Four students named Remus Potter, Peter Pettigrew, Sirius Black, and James Potter made it. They used their school nicknames: Moony, Wormtail, Padfoot, and Prongs.
  • Activation: To open it, you must tap it with a wand and say, "I solemnly swear that I am up to no good."
  • Hiding: To close it and hide the secrets, you tap it again and say, "Mischief managed."
  • Features: It shows a full map of Hogwarts. Tiny moving ink dots show where every person is in the castle and grounds.
