13. Peter Pettigrew:

Peter Pettigrew is a coward who is not loyal but is quite cunning. He is a rare breed in wizards for he can change into an Animagus, but stays in rat form for over ten years until The Prisoner of Azkaban.

When he turns again to Voldemort's side, he is able to sustain the Dark Lord in a weak corporal. Wormtail must be knowledgeable of much magic, but he is prone to using it only to save his own neck. He is easily one of the most reprehensible Harry Potter antagonists.
