This wizard (d. 1 May, 1998) was one of Lord Voldemort's Death Eaters who participated in the Second Wizarding War.[2]
Biography
Early life
This Death Eater was presumably born prior to 1981. He probably had at least one magical parent, as his employer, Lord Voldemort, does not accept Muggle-borns into his army. It's possible that he fought for Voldemort during the First Wizarding War though this is unconfirmed.
Second Wizarding War
This Death Eater raided the Hogwarts Express on 1 September, 1997, in order to search the train for Harry Potter with another Death Eater. At the time, both the Ministry of Magic and Hogwarts were under the control of Lord Voldemort. He was, however, unsuccessful in his search for Potter, as he, along with Hermione Granger and Ron Weasley, were on a mission to find and destroy Voldemort's Horcruxes at the time, and did not return to Hogwarts for their final year of education at the school.[3]
This Death Eater was at Gringotts Wizarding Bank as Harry Potter, Ronald Weasley, Hermione Granger and Griphook staged a break-in to retrieve Helga Hufflepuff's Cup from the Lestrange Vault.
Later that day, he was killed by Lord Voldemort in a fit of rage, after the Dark Lord was informed by goblins working at Gringotts that Harry Potter had managed to steal Helga Hufflepuff's Cup from him.[4]
Magical Abilities and Skills
- Wandless Magic: This Death Eater was highly skilled at using magic without a wand. When searching for Harry Potter he was able to halt the Hogwarts Express simply with a hand gesture.
- Apparition: He was able to apparate in front of the Hogwarts Express.
- Dark Arts: Being a Death Eater, he would have been highly proficient in the dark arts and the casting of dark spells and most likely the Unforgivable Curses.
