Harry je odveden svojoj teti, [[Petunia Dursley|Petuniji Dursley]] gdje je proveo narednih 10 godina. Voldemort nije mogao napasti Harryja sve dok on naziva domom kuću u kojoj živi krv njegove majke.
Voldemort nije mogao dotaći Harryja jer u njemu teče krv [[Lily Potter]]. To se vidi u [[Harry Potter i Kamen mudraca|Harry Potteru i Kamenu mudraca]], kada [[Quirinus Quirrell|profesor Quirrell]] (u kojem je Voldemort), kada pokuša dotaći Harryja, počinju mu plikovi iskakati na koži (u filmu se raspada). U [[Harry Potter i Plameni pehar|Harry Potteru i Plamenom peharu]], Voldemort uzima Harryjevu krv kako bi obnovio svoju, te tako u njemu teče Harryjeva krv. Na taj način opet može dotaći Harryja.

Lily could have saved herself when her family was attacked by Voldemort since he offered her the chance to step aside while he killed Harry. This was shown in a flashback sequence during ''[[Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban]]''. Voldemort's motives for offering to spare Lily's life are unclear, but Lily refused and Voldemort killed her; the upshot of her selfless act was to invoke an ancient magic that gave Harry an innate defence against Voldemort (Rowling has stated that Lily did not know that this would happen because "it never happened before"). This magic manifested itself two ways: First, when Voldemort attempted to kill Harry with the Killing Curse, ''[[Unforgivable Curses#Avada Kedavra (The Killing Curse)|Avada Kedavra]]'' (which had never before been survived), the spell backfired, rendering Voldemort non-corporeal.
Voldemort's inability to touch Harry, due to his lingering protection, continued in ''[[Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone]]''. [[Quirinus Quirrell|Professor Quirrell]], acting as [[Host (biology)|host]] to Voldemort, attempted to attack Harry to gain the [[Philosopher's Stone]], but was prevented from stealing the Stone when he came into contact with Harry's skin, leaving Voldemort forced to return to his non-corporeal state. Voldemort has since overcome this by using Harry's blood to regenerate his own body. However, when Harry tells [[Albus Dumbledore|Dumbledore]] this, he thinks he sees, for a fleeting instant, "something like triumph in Dumbledore's eyes." Harry thinks he must've imagined it though, for Dumbledore merely says "Very well, Voldemort has overcome that particular barrier." When asked about the gleam of triumph, [[J. K. Rowling]] says, "That's still enormously significant. And let's face it, I haven't told you that much is enormously significant, so you can let your imaginations run free there."

The second way in which Harry is protected by Lily's sacrifice occurs at the Dursley residence in [[Little Whinging]]. Dumbledore admitted to Harry that he had extended Lily's protection to the home where Lily's sister Petunia lived. This was possible because Lily and Petunia are related by blood. As long as it continues to be Harry's home, Voldemort cannot harm Harry there. This protection at the Dursley's ends when Harry comes of age at 17.
James's [[Animagus]] form is a [[Deer|stag]], like Harry's [[Patronus Charm|Patronus]]. James was therefore nicknamed "Prongs." Though Harry bears a great resemblance to his father, it is often noted that he has Lily's eyes. Rowling has said that, "Harry has his father and mother's good looks. But he has his mother's eyes and that's very important in a future book." [http://www.quick-quote-quill.org/articles/1999/1099-bostonglobe-loer.html] Rowling has also said there will be more details appearing about Lily in the seventh and [[Harry Potter book seven|final ''Harry Potter'' book]].
