Bertha Jorkins was born c. 1958. She was two years ahead of Sirius, James, and their friends at Hogwarts (GF27).
Killed by Voldemort, summer 1994 [Y14]
伯莎·喬金斯生於1958年。伯莎是個愛說閒話又不善社交的人——有一次她發現一個人“在暖房後面和弗洛倫斯接吻”,也不知道應該假裝沒看見,結果那人對她施了魔法。
哈利在
鄧布利多的冥想盆里看見了十六歲的她。那是個胖胖的、一臉不高興的女孩,正在抱怨別的同學待她很糟糕(火焰杯30章)。
Bertha was a gossip and didn't seem to have a lot of social skills -- once she spotted someone "kissing Florence behind the greenhouses" and didn't have the sense just to ignore it, which resulted in that person casting a hex on her. Harry saw her in Dumbledore's Pensieve at about age sixteen and she appeared as a plump, scowling girl who complained about ill treatment from other students (GF30).
從霍格沃茨畢業後她工作於魔法部。據說她從一個部門被趕到一個部門,最後在魔法體育運動司留下了。她的沒頭腦是出了名的,要不然,她在
三強爭霸賽舉行之前的那個夏天去
阿爾巴尼亞度假失蹤後,也不會有那么多人笑說她只是沒有時間概念,一兩個禮拜後就會晃回來的。
She went to work for the Ministry of Magic after Hogwarts. Some were of the opinion that she was shunted from department to department. Bertha ended up working for the Department of Magical Games and Sports. She had a reputation for being somewhat scatterbrained, so much so that when she turned up missing on a vacation to Albania the summer before the Triwizard Tournament, most people assumed she'd simply lost track of time and would come wandering back in a week or two.
就在1994年(14年)那個命運多舛的夏天之前,伯莎為老
巴蒂·克勞奇工作的事去了克勞奇的住處,聽見了閃閃在和小巴蒂·克勞奇說話(他穿著
隱形衣),多少知道了一點真相:那個男孩逃出了
阿茲卡班,藏在這所房子裡。而後老克勞奇對伯莎施了一個很強的遺忘咒,讓她忘記了自己所看到的。就是這個咒語使她更加健忘。(火焰杯35章)
At some point before that fateful summer of 1994 [Y14], Bertha had gone to the Crouch residence with some work for Barty Crouch Sr. While there, she had heard Winky talking to Barty Crouch Jr. (who was concealed by an invisibility cloak) and had realized at least part of the truth: that the boy had escaped Azkaban and that he was being hidden in the house. Crouch Sr. had then placed a strong Memory Charm on Bertha to make her forget what she'd seen. It was this Memory Charm that caused her to be so forgetful (GF35).

在
阿爾巴尼亞度假時,她並不只是沒有時間觀念和方向感。事實上,她在那裡的旅店遇到了
小矮星彼得,他把她帶給了伏地魔。黑魔頭使用了強大的魔法打破了遺忘咒,於是得知了舉辦三強爭霸賽的計畫,並發現了他忠實的僕人小巴蒂·克勞奇還活著的事實。伏地魔的法力太強大了,他榨得了這一訊息後伯莎被徹底地摧毀了,最後他殺了她。
During her holiday in Albania, Bertha didn't simply lose track of time and place. The truth is that she had met Peter Pettigrew at an inn there and he had led her to Voldemort. The Dark Lord had used powerful magic to break the Memory Charm on Bertha and thereby discovered the plans for the Triwizard Tournament and the fact that his faithful servant Barty Crouch Jr. was still alive. The magic Voldemort used to extract this information from Bertha was so powerful and invasive that she was left "damaged," so he killed her.
閃回咒發生作用時,伯莎的“影子”從
伏地魔的魔杖中出現了。伯莎知道發生了什麼事,知道
哈利是誰,她要求哈利別撒手。她和其他伏地魔的犧牲品的“影子”一起鼓勵哈利並圍住了伏地魔(火焰杯34章)
The "shade" of Bertha came out of Voldemort's wand during the Priori Incantatem event. Bertha knew what was going on and who Harry was, and she urged him not to let go of the wand. She joined the other "shades" of Voldemort's victims in encouraging Harry and harassing Voldemort (GF34).
人物情節
據小
天狼星和其他認識她的人描述,她不大聰明,所以不會是
拉文克勞的學生,似乎也不象是
斯萊特林的人;既然小天狼星那么了解她,她還有膽量當面質問克勞奇,所以她可能是格蘭芬多。不過這也只是猜測。但記憶力相當好,好奇心強,從不知道什麼時候該不說話。總之,對一個在
魔法部工作的女人來說,愛講閒話是相當不利的。1980年代,她曾與老巴蒂克勞奇工作上聯繫密切,偶爾得知了他最危險的秘密,即小巴蒂還活著,並被其父親用隱形衣藏在家中。當伯莎質問他的時候,克勞奇消除了她的記憶,咒語太強,對她的記憶力產生了永久性的影響。此後她被從一個部門調到另一個部門,到哪兒都被當作負擔。最後她到了魔法體育運動司。1994年夏被蟲尾巴抓到,帶到
伏地魔那裡。隨後她被殘酷的折磨,直到她講出了她知道的所有事情,然後伏地魔親自殺了她(
火焰杯)。
她在霍格沃茨比
小天狼星·詹姆和他們的夥伴們高兩屆(火焰杯第27章)。
畢業後於魔法部門工作,任職較多(火焰杯中提及她在記憶受損後被各個部門趕來趕去),不過可以確定的部門有她最後任職的魔法體育司,此外她還曾在
克勞奇手下工作,根據珀西的說法應該是國際魔法合作司。
