Okay, that letter found in the locket really puzzled me. I need to know - WHO found out voldie's secret, put himself in danger, stole the Horux/destroyed it??
I've been thinking a lot about it, and the only name I can come up with is Regulus Black. my theory is really imaginative and unlikely, but its the only thing I've been able to dig up.
The intitial: RB - Regulus Black. Well, I dont know his middle name, so I can't confirm it. if its even correct, which I doubt. But still...
OK, the letter was addressed To the Dark Lord. Only Death Eaters call Voldemort the Dark Lord. So I think it was a Death Eater.
It said that something along the lines of (sorry, dont the book at hand) by the time you read this I will be long dead. We all know that Regulus Black was killed by Voldemort, or at least on Voldemorts orders. Why, though? Sirius said in OotP that Regulus had no idea what he was getting into, and tryed to back out. It could have happened, but Sirius didnt know for sure, right?
It could have been that Regulus was a Death Eater, but turned aganst the Dark Lord for some reason, maybe heard what he was going to do, and turned against him. So, he found out about the horcruxes, destroyed the one in the cave, then Voldemort found out and killed him. Or another Death Eater killed him. Its more likely the Dark Lord never knew.
Please tell me what you think. i know this thoery is really wild, but its the only thing I've been able to come across.
Note: I just reread this, and it sounds REALLY unlikely.
Edit: Do not edit something I edited. It was editted for a reason.

Maybe...i dunno. I just assumed it was his/her intitials. I just checked the Lexicon, and, assuming it was their intials, Regulus was the only person, apart from Rudolf Brand, who proposed to the captain of the Holyhead Harpies, Gwenog Jones. I dont thinks its him though. Unless, JK introduces RAB in the beginning of the 7th book sometimes.
Also, there is a locket in 12 Grimmauld place. Although I doubt it was the same one, as it was in the drawing room in OotP. And is probably still there.

I noticed the thing about Regulas's initials and the locket as well. I think It's Regulas. So here's a question; Sirius said that Regulas had been killed by the dark lord, but did they ever get/find his body? I think that if they didn't, he might still be alive.

The RAB is bugging me too. I assumed it was someones initals... and Regulus sounds as good an idea as any. Lol, I'm going to go back and read all the books now haha.

I have a feeling it's regulas, but I'm planning on messing around with it in a fan fiction or something. I could have lots of fun.

Do you write fan fiction? I do too! But I'm having so much fun roleplaying I havent updated my story in months...  Yay, I feel so happy that you guys stand by the whole regulus Black theory. I'm positive the Dark Lord killed him. But Sirius didnt actually know why Regulus was killed. He would have been dead. So, I'm assuming Sirius just assumed thats what happened. |

Regulus was killed because he tried to get out of the Death Eaters - which I think was stated somewhere near the beginning or the end of book 6 (I can't remember, but I know that it was stated by Snape I think on the subject of him able to stay alive so long being a 'known traitor' or someone 'untrusted by many of the Dark Lord's followers.'
I don't think that the locket was taken by Regulus, it seems to be someone who knows Voldemort and who has either allied against him or else has just taken it to make the guy really upset.
But that's just my theory, based on nothing except pure knowledge of JKR's twisted mind and novels.

Well JK only mentions stuff for a reason, right? And sirius never explained how any of the others died only his brother which seems to me like obviously he has some part but he's not still alive or else the old order headquarters wouldn't belong to harry even if everyone thought he was dead so obviously he has something to do with something, whether it's the horcrux or whatever or not. But what gets me is that since dumbledore now has a photo on the wall in the headmistress office...shouldn't he be able to tell harry whether he can tell someone else about what they were doing, say mcgonagall....Also I wonder whether, if they open the school again, mcgonagall is going to close the room of requirements for good some how...I'm sure she can and I'm also sure that for some strange reason mundungous(sp?) sold that locket if it was in the drawing room, probably thought it was worth something
I also wondered....I think it was said but I don't remember it...but I wondered whether voldemort could store it inside a human being by, say, accident....For example, harry which is why the prophecy says one can't live while the other survives

well I don't know...someone has to tell me that he did actually say it but i do remember dumbledore pointing to his scar when he said that voldemort likes to take trophies or whatever or leave things behind of himself or something like that

Yes so you can see how i came to my theory about the scar. might be wrong about regulas black though,but she was rather smirky when someone asked her about that on mugglenet when they interviewed her at the reading at the castle.

I'm sure he has something big to do with it in the 7th book but I don't think he's alive because if he was the house would have gone to him immediatly and kreacher would never obey harry

A Horcrux can be a living thing (but it's not suggested), because Dumbledore told Harry that Voldemort's snake Nagini was a Horcrux. I think at least, if I can remember it correctly, either that or else Voldemort had more control over the thing because he is a Parseltongue. But I am still convinced that the snake might be a Horcrux, it fits - it's a snake the symbol of Slytherin - it also gives Voldemort a chance to show off his cool Parseltongue skills.

Right I forgot about that...So ya I was thinking Harry might be one, although it is a bit unlikely but like charlene said, he's got a scar that gives him a mark that voldemort wanted to remember, that is if he even realised one of the horcruxes might be harry. Although it does seem unlikely the more you think about it.
