Like Draco, Astoria was raised to believe in pure-blood elitism. Unfortunately Astoria passed away in 2019, but we will get more into that later. She actually attended Hogwarts two years after Draco, which explains a lot of why we knew little about her at first. Draco’s dad, Lucius, was in Azkaban for a while with other Death Eaters until Voldemort helped them escape after a year.ĭraco married a pure-blooded witch, Astoria Greengrass, and we see her briefly in the epilogue of the movies and books, though she wasn’t named till later. In fact, the family has had relatives in the wizard prison before. Of course, Narcissa did not do this to avoid Azkaban (she probably didn’t even consider that far ahead). In fact, couldn’t we say a mother’s love saved Harry Potter a second time? Once with his own mother and then with Draco’s? Narcissa didn’t only lie to Voldemort, but she made an Unbreakable Vow with Snape to ensure Draco’s safety (a powerful spell if which you perish if you don’t keep your promise). With love being the strongest magic in the series, I suppose it is also sweet to say the Malfoy’s love of family is what saved them from Azkaban or worse. It was sort of sweet, because she lied so she could save Draco and know he would be alright. I’d say the moment they switched sides was when Draco’s mother, Narcissa, lied to Voldemort about whether Harry was gone or alive in the Forbidden Forest during the Battle of Hogwarts in the seventh book. They were actually forgiven due to switching sides at the last minute. ĭraco managed to avoid time in Azkaban, despite his family’s involvement as Death Eaters serving Lord Voldemort. Here's 20 Things Draco Malfoy Did After Deathly Hallows. As you’ll learn from this list, he isn’t utterly transformed but he does try to make some good out of himself. “Being raised by either the Malfoys or the Dursleys would be a very damaging experience, and Draco undergoes dreadful trials as a direct result of his family’s misguided principles.”īy the end of his education at Hogwarts, Malfoy did go through a lot of character development. “I pity Draco, just as I feel sorry for Dudley,” wrote Rowling. It’s someone who believes they are superior and will kick you down. We all have known bullies, at school, at work, or even at home. She wrote that everyone has known someone like Draco in their lifetime. She writes a lot about him on Pottermore. Rowling gives much to think about in terms of his character too. In that light, Draco of course turned out to be the brat we grew up with in the books. They clung to their belief that Pure-Blood wizards were the best, and were taught to be so from a young age. He came from an entire family line of Slytherins who were elitist.
