Antonin Dolohov was one of the original Death Eaters of Lord Voldemort. He fought in the First Wizarding War, during which he tortured many muggles and wizards and witches who were not supporters of Voldemort. Along with four other Death Eaters, he participated in the murders of Fabian and Gideon Prewett (Molly Weasley's brothers). Dolohov was caught and convicted of these crimes, and sentenced to life imprisonment in Azkaban. He escaped after Voldemort's return and the start of the Second Wizarding War, in the mass break-out of 1996, and participated in the Battle of the Department of Mysteries, where he was re-captured and incarcerated. By the summer of 1997, Dolohov was at large again. He and Thorfinn Rowle attacked Harry Potter, Hermione Granger, and Ron Weasley at Tottenham Court Road, but they were defeated and his memory was wiped. In 1998, Dolohov fought in the Battle of Hogwarts, during which he killed Remus Lupin. The nature of Remus's death was not revealed, but his body was peaceful-looking, suggesting that Dolohov used the Killing Curse or his own curse, as neither leaves visible marks. He was also seen fighting against Dean Thomas and Parvati Patil; Parvati shot a Full Body-Bind Curse at him in defense of Dean. After Voldemort called a retreat and gave Harry Potter one hour to turn himself over, Dolohov and Yaxley stood guard in the Forbidden Forest. Harry followed them to the Death Eater camp to confront Voldemort. At the climax of the battle, he engaged Filius Flitwick in a duel, and was defeated. His ultimate fate is unknown.In the movies, he is portrayed by Albanian-French actor Arben Bajraktaraj. He is credited as Azkaban Death Eater in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix and finally as Antonin Dolohov in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part I.In Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1, Ron Weasley expresses a desire to kill Dolohov, most likely due to Dolohov's hand in the deaths of his uncles. Hermione uses the memory charm on him instead, but not before showing great hesitation before doing so.Information obtained from the Harry Potter Wiki.
