Talk:Antonin Dolohov

[edit] Alive?
Changed it from saying he was "likely to have been killed" to "unlikely". If he "Fell with a scream", he was clearly still alive.
- If you fall off a cliff, you might scream, it doesn't mean you'll be alive... Syugecin
JK never said he was dead and the charms teacher is way to nice to kill. it would have been funny to have him be put in a body bond one last time seeing as he has be hit by it so many times. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 72.228.49.45 (talk • contribs).
- While I agree that Dolohow is not dead, remember that McGonagall told Slughorn that during the battle, they would "duel to kill". And Flitwick was a duelling champion in his youth. Just because someone is nice, doesn't mean they don't have it in them to kill if the need arises. - Cavalier One(Wizarding Wireless Network) 14:30, 18 November 2007 (UTC)
Molly Weasley for example.
- I like to think that Rowling would have killed Dolohov in the end. I doubt that she would have left the murderer of such a main character alive. I think the scream was implied to make us believe that Dolohov had been slain, rather than the others such as Yaxely or Thicknesse, who had no evidence of being killed. The scream only means that Flitwick did not use Avada Kedavra, which does not surprise me at all. However, I have no proof either, until someone puts the question to Rowling herself.

[edit] Skill
Opponents Dolohov defeated:
- Killed the Prewett brothers during the First War - both noted to be highly skilled and powerful wizards
- Hermione, Neville, Harry (Dept. Mysteries) - severely injures Hermione, breaks Neville's wand and nose (severely impairing his fighting ability), and corners Harry - and all while silenced. Harry only escapes because Dolohov was distracted.
- Defeats and injures Mad-Eye Moody (Dept. Mysteries) - a famous and highly skilled former Auror
- Kills Remus Lupin (Battle of Hogwarts) - a powerful wizard capable of wandless magic
- Looking at all of this, I think it's clear Dolohov's one of the most skilled Death Eaters. A bit easily distracted, though.
[edit] Hair Colour
I entered that Dolohov had dark hair because of this passage from DH:
- Harry picked up his wand and climbed over all the debris to where the large blond Death Eater was sprawled across the bench.
- “I should’ve recognized him, he was there the night Dumbledore died,” he said. He turned over the darker Death Eater with his foot; the man’s eyes moved rapidly between Harry, Ron and Hermione.
- “That’s Dolohov,” said Ron. “I recognize him from the old wanted posters. I think the big one’s Thorfinn Rowle.”
Obviously, he can't be blonde, and saying "the darker Death Eater" rather than just something like "the other Death Eater" seems to indicate that his hair, at least, is dark. Oread 00:26, 17 March 2008 (UTC)
- Of course, she could be referring to the colouration of his skin, implying that Dolohov had a more mediterranean appearance. However, since she mentions Rowle's hair colour, then Dolohov as darker, it is a reasonable assumption. - Cavalier One(Wizarding Wireless Network) 08:02, 17 March 2008 (UTC)
I'm sure she meant his hair color, since he is described as pale several times in the books. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Indressa (talk • contribs).
- I agree with that. ShirleyA

[edit] Young Dolohov
Can we get an image of the young Dolohov from the Slug Club memory scene? Jayden Matthews 17:36, 21 July 2009 (UTC)
He wasn´t a member, wasn´t he?--Rodolphus 17:39, 21 July 2009 (UTC)
Your right, I confused him with Lestrange Sr. It was just that there was a boy in that scene who looks the spitting image of Dolohov. It might be worth getting images of all those guys, so we can identify Lestrange, Avery etc. Jayden Matthews 07:35, 26 July 2009 (UTC)
[edit] Not him
There has apparently been a mix up as to which Death Eaters are which. Richard Cubison was cast as Antonin Dolohov, and this is backed up by several sources including Cubsion's agency. This means that the man in this article is not Dolohov at all. Also the man you claim to be Rabastan Lestrange is actually Travers as played by Tav MacDougall. The man portryed in this article was played by Richard Trinder as seen on his Youtube account. Obviously there has been some mitake, and the articles will need to be altered as well as the images, because they are currently inccorectly portraying the characters. Would it be okay for me to do this? Jayden Matthews 16:01, 4 August 2009 (UTC)
- See Forum:Unknown_Death_Eaters. That's where the Death Eater's identities were decided upon.--Matoro183
