I've been wondering who JKR will kill off next, since she admitted 
on her site that she will continue to kill characters off. In GOF 
when Voldemort is looking around the circle of death eaters, he 
comes to six empty spaces. He says three died in his service. One 
was too cowardly to show up (Karakoff, since he fled that night?), 
one has left forever, he will die of course (Snape, since he left to 
be loyal to Dumbledore), and one at Hogwarts now doing his bidding 
(Crouch, Jr.). Didn't Hagrid tell Harry that when Voldemort decided 
to kill someone he usually did it, except in the case of Harry? 
Sure, Snape is spying and has done some working, evidently, to get 
back in the good graces of Voldy to get the job done, but one 
wonders, is this possible?


 
me:  I think Snape is the one too cowardly to show up.  He had continued to be on good terms with Lucius all these years and so could appear to have been loyal.  I am sure Lucius would vouge for his loyalty as well as his treatment of Harry.  He would have a ready excuse for not showing because of being under DD eye and would not be killed but he would be punished.  Karkaroff was the one who publicly denounced Voldemort in court and turned evidence and would thus be the one who left him forever.  Karkaroff didn't even try to crawl back and apologize so that would have cinched it for Voldemort.
