Mundungus Fletcher

I see your point Naama but, a. why was he being investigated by the ministry 
and b. if he was being investigated and he had nothing to hide, why attempt to 
assault the investigating officer (lapses into what she believes to be US 
terminology). Maybe he was just A Very Naughty Boy (eg the insurance claim) and 
was involved in lots of high jinx but ....

I wouldn't say that throwing a hex is dark arts. Its not nice, maybe, but they 
do it all the

in the face or
