Brutal Face was found on top of the Astronomy Tower "stupefied"
according to Scrimgeour. At first I thought this was a mistake,
either by Jo or by Scrimmy, but now, natch, I have a theory...

First, I don't think Blondie was a disguised  Order member; they're 
not supposed to kill if they have a choice.  I don't think an 
Order member would set fire to Hagrid's cabin -- he would know 
that Hagrid usually kept creatures in it. And I don't think any
loyal Order member would have allowed Greyback to enter the 
school, even if it meant blowing cover --they'd have died first.

That leaves two unnamed Death Eaters,the ones
fighting Ron and Lupin,  yet to be accounted for. 

I would guess the remaining Order members chased the two unnamed
Death Eaters back to the RoR, while Lupin went up the Tower in the 
guise of looking for the  Death Eater who had gone up  there
and hadn't come back. He stupefied  Brutal Face from behind so that
he wouldn't be observed, then picked up Harry's invisibility cloak 
and used it to smuggle Greyback out of the building.
