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").

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 ...

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...

tolkiens legendarium - Did Gandalf wear his Ring of Power throughout the trilogy?

After Gandalf discovered that Sauron was back and sent Frodo on his quest to Rivendell, did he continue to wear Narya (one of the Three Rings)? It seems like a huge risk to continue to wear it after the Nazgûl (Ringwraiths) started to try and reclaim the One Ring; if they managed to get the ring to Sauron, couldn't he be corrupted by his power? Whatever powers Narya bestows upon him couldn't possibly be worth the huge risk, could it? Answer When Sauron forged the one ring and put it on his finger, the other ring bearers were immediately aware of him and his intentions and removed their own rings. There is no reason why they couldn't merely do so again. As soon as Sauron set the One Ring upon his finger they were aware of him; and they knew him, and preceived that he would be master of them, and of all they wrought. Then in anger and fear they took off their rings. "Of the Rings of Power and the Third Age," Silmarillion
