harry potter - Which of the Death Eaters survive after the final battle?


So after the final battle, lots of people die.


But not everyone! Even people from the bad side had to have survived.


So who did?




Answer



It is hard to know which Death Eaters survived because we do not know all their names. Many of the deaths, specifically in the Battle of Hogwarts, are anonymous. We can possibly extrapolate notable survivors with a list of Death Eaters who were killed.


One will notice that Voldemort's and the Death Eaters' kill count is way higher than the Harry/Dumbledore/Order of the Phoenix's. However, that would be expected since we have a classic "good vs. evil" story.


Many other families to be known Death Eaters (and first names not always known) and were not to be shown killed outright.







The Malfoy Family: Lucius, Narcissa, and Draco were seen fleeing the Battle of Hogwarts.


The Carrows: Alceto and Amycus were tied-up in the Ravenclaw Tower prior to the Battle of Hogwarts.


Antonin Dolohov: Was defeated but not killed by Professor Flitwich during the Battle of Hogwarts.



Augustus Rookwood: Sent to Azkaban after the Department of Mysteries incident, but escaped during mass break out.


Walden Macnair: Hagrid slammed him into a wall during the Battle of Hogwarts, but he was only knocked unconscious.







Prior to the Battle of Hogwarts:


Evan Rosier: killed while resisting capture before Lord Voldemort's downfall by Alastor Moody (mentioned in GoF)


Wilkes: killed while resisting capture before Lord Voldemort's downfall by Aurors (mentioned in GoF)


Gibbon: killed by a stray Killing Curse cast by Thorfinn Rowle (HBP)


Regulus Black (reformed): Killed while attempting to destroy the locket Horcrux. (mentioned in DH)



Barty Crouch Jr.: Soul removed by a Dementor (GoF)


Igor Karkaroff: Killed by Voldemort for abandoning the cause.


Peter Pettigrew: Killed by his own magical prosthetic hand, thus Lord Voldemort, indirectly. (DH)


"Several Death Eaters": They were not named. All killed during Voldemort's fit of rage after being informed that Helga Hufflepuff's Cup, which was one of his Horcruxes was stolen. (DH)




During the Battle of Hogwarts:


Scabior: Killed by Neville Longbottom with a collapsing bridge.


Vincent Crabbe: Killed by his overactive Fiendfyre.


Severus Snape (reformed): Killed by Nagini/Voldemort for control of the Elder Wand.


Nagini (animal): Killed by Neville Longbottom with the Sword of Gryffindor.



Bellatrix Lestrange, nee Black: Killed by Molly Weasley with an unspecified curse.


Voldemort: Killed by his own rebounding curse (or Harry Potter from a "certain point of view").

harry potter - Did Dolores Umbridge Have Any Association with Voldemort (or Death Eaters) before His Return?

I noticed that Dolores Umbridge was born during the first Wizarding War, so it's very likely she wasn't a Death Eater then (but she is pretty evil -- who knows?). After that Voldemort was not around in a way that could affect many people, and most wouldn't know he was planning to rise again. During that time, and up through Voldemort's return (in Goblet of Fire ), did Umbridge have any connection with the Death Eaters or with Voldemort? Was she doing what she did on her own, or was it because of an association with Voldemort or his allies? Answer Dolores Umbridge was definitely not a good person. However, as Sirius points out, "the world isn't split into good people and Death Eaters". Remember that he also says that he doesn't believe Umbridge to be a Death Eater, but that she's evil enough (or something like that). I think there are two strong reasons to believe that: Umbridge was proud to do everything according to the law, except when she trie...

What is the etymology of Doctor Who?

I recently decided to watch Doctor Who, and started viewing the 2005 version. I have the first two episodes from the first season, and I can't help but wonder what is the etymology of the name "Doctor Who"? And why does the protagonist call himself "the Doctor" (or is it "the doctor")? Answer In the very first episode of Doctor Who (way back in 1963), the Doctor has a granddaughter going by the name "Susan Foreman", and the junkyard where the TARDIS is has the sign "I.M. Foreman". Barbara, who becomes one of the Doctor's companions, calls him "Doctor Foreman" (probably assuming that is his name given his relationship to Susan), and Ian (another early companion) does the same in the second episode, to which the Doctor says: Eh? Doctor who? What's he talking about? "Foreman" is most likely selected as a convenient surname for Susan to use because it happened to be on display near where the TARDIS landed....

story identification - Animation: floating island, flying pests

At least 20 years ago I watched a short animated film which stuck in my mind. The whole thing was wordless, possibly European, and I'm pretty sure I didn't imagine it... It featured a flying island which was inhabited by some creatures who (in my memory) reminded me of the Moomins. The island was frequently bothered by large winged animals who swooped around, although I don't think they did any actual damage. At the end one of the moomin creatures suddenly gets a weird feeling, feels forced to climb to the top of the island and then plunges down a shaft right through the centre - only to emerge at the bottom as one of the flyers. Answer Skywhales from 1983. The story begins with a man warning the tribe of approaching skywhales. The drummers then warn everybody of the hunt as everyone get prepared to set "sail". Except one man is found in his home sleeping as the noise wake him up. He then gets ready and is about to take his weapon as he hesitates then decides ...
