An object in which a warlock, wizard or witch has hidden a fragment of his or her soul in order to later attain immortality. Horcruxes can only be created after committing a supreme act of evil — corporate [[insolvency]], forgetting to [[Registration of charges|register]] a [[charge]], splitting an infinitive — that kind of thing. Therefore lots were generated in the wake of the [[global financial crisis]], and to this day practitioners of [[dark arts]] (eg [[credit officer]]s) may still invoke them to ward off over-enthusiastic [[sales]]people. | An object in which a warlock, wizard or witch has hidden a fragment of his or her soul in order to later attain immortality.
