Narcissa Malfoy Character Analysis

Draco Malfoy's mother. She's pale and blond, like Draco and Lucius, and it becomes clear early on that while Narcissa may believe that Voldemort has the right idea when it comes to blood purity and his vision for the world, she's more interested in protecting her family than in sacrificing anyone she loves for Voldemort's vision. She's afraid of Voldemort and likely doesn't care whether Harry is alive or dead, but she chooses to announce that Harry is dead—thereby protecting him—so that she can enter Hogwarts and find Draco.

Chapter Ten Quotes

"Sirius was horrible to Kreacher, Harry, and it's no good looking like that, you know it's true. Kreacher had been alone for a long time when Sirius came to live here, and he was probably starving for a bit of affection. I'm sure 'Miss Cissy' and 'Miss Bella' were perfectly lovely to Kreacher when he turned up, so he did them a favor and told them everything they wanted to know. I've said all along that wizards would pay for how they treat house-elves. Well, Voldemort did...and so did Sirius."
