Lord Voldemort's Death Eaters

Death Eater Brotherhood 

Some of the bad guys Harry Potter has to confront

There are those who followed Voldemort before his fall from power, those who are loyal to him still and those who would follow him if he comes back into power.

• Lucius Malfoy - he escaped prosecution by claiming he acted under the Imperius Curse during Voldemort's reign, but there are those who believe that Malfoy has been loyal to Voldemort all along. It is presumed his son, Draco, is following in his father's footsteps.
• Severus Snape - the only half-blood known to have been a Death Eater (unless you count Voldemort himmself), Snape is now a teacher at Hogwart's after informing on other Death Eaters after Voldemort's defeat.
• Barty Crouch Jr - he was the one who sent up the Dark Mark at the Quidditch World Cup, using Harry Potter's stolen wand, and later impersonated Auror Mad-Eye Moody.
• Peter Pettigrew, aka Wormtail - he stayed in the guise of a rat for 13 years until called back to service of the Dark Lord.
• Igor Karkaroff - head of the Durmstrang school. Like Snape, he was a Death Eater but informed on his compatriots when Voldemort fell. He flees suddenly when Voldemort summons the Death Eaters in "Goblet of Fire."
• Quirinus Quirrell - was host to Lord Voldemort's energy. It's unknown if he was a willing supporter of Voldemort or was just a weak individual who was taken over.
• Bellatrix Lestrange - cousin to Harry's godfather Sirius Black, she used the Cruciatus Curse on Neville Longbottom's parents until they both lost their minds.
• Regulus Black - younger brother to Sirius, he was killed in the first war, sacrificing his own life to destroy one of Voldemort's Horcruxes.
• Crabbe and Goyle - although you may at first think of young Draco Malfoy's two ever-present henchmen, in fact both boy's fathers are Death Eaters and appear when Voldemort first retakes human form.
• Antonin Dolohov - fought for Voldemort in the First War, imprisoned in Azkaban, then liberated to fight for the Death Eaters again in the Second War. Responsible for the deaths of Lupin and Tonks at the Battle of Hogwarts.
