Draco’s mother and Lucius’s wife. Although she’s a member of a prominent Death Eater family, Narcissa is much more concerned with preserving Drcao’s well-being than serving Voldemort. When Voldemort forces Draco to undertake the task of killing Dumbledore, she’s petrified rather than proud, and begs Snape to take care of her son. Her maternal love humanizes her entire family and points out the difficulty in classifying people as either entirely good or evil.
