Dobby

[CB]

Well, I'm in the minority here it seems, but I *liked* the way Dobby looks. 
He looks frail, abused and miserable. We haven't seen any other house elves 
that serve in *nice* households. It's entirely possible that they'll look 
less run down.
At any rate, I'd always visualized house elves as being skinny, kinda 
rat-like things. Very dismissable, very easy to not be seen. Even the 
people who are nice to their house elves have an "out of sight/out of mind" 
mentality. If they were cheery, friendly looking beasties, they'd be less 
forgettable.
