Death Eaters

Death Eaters (formerly known as the Knights of Walpurgis) are followers of Lord Voldemort. Traditionally, they wear black hoods with snake-like eye slits to cover their faces. Every Death Eater has a Dark Mark burned into his or her left forearm. When Voldemort touches one of them, every Death Eater feels it, and Apparates to their leader's side.
