Gregory Goyle
MinorGregory Goyle is a thickset and heavily built boy who appears much larger and more imposing than his first-year classmates such as Harry and Ron. He has a brutish, extremely mean-looking face that can twist into a triumphant expression, with a lumbering presence that makes him ideal as a bodyguard flanking Malfoy on either side. As an eleven-year-old English wizard attending Hogwarts in the late 20th century, he has fair skin, short dark hair, a broad and heavy frame, and wears the typical black Hogwarts robes while carrying himself with an intimidating, thuggish demeanor.

Physical Description
Gregory Goyle is a thickset and heavily built boy who appears much larger and more imposing than his first-year classmates such as Harry and Ron. He has a brutish, extremely mean-looking face that can twist into a triumphant expression, with a lumbering presence that makes him ideal as a bodyguard flanking Malfoy on either side. As an eleven-year-old English wizard attending Hogwarts in the late 20th century, he has fair skin, short dark hair, a broad and heavy frame, and wears the typical black Hogwarts robes while carrying himself with an intimidating, thuggish demeanor. A large, clumsy-looking teenage boy with a massively expanded barrel-like chest, broad shoulders, and thick limbs. His large hands feature thickened fingers, broadened nails, and bulging knuckles, leading to notably thick wrists. Short wiry bristles grow low across his forehead, creeping toward his eyebrows, while his face holds dull, deeply set eyes that convey a slow and menacing look. His enormous boat-like feet and low rasping voice match his overall hulking frame, usually clothed in standard Hogwarts school robes. A broad-shouldered teenage boy with a wide, heavily muscled build and long gorilla-like arms that emphasize his thuggish demeanor. He has short bristly dark hair atop a heavy-featured face with small dull eyes that look out with dim intelligence, fair skin typical of a young British wizard, and the solid stance of a Hogwarts third-year Slytherin student. His bulky frame is clad in the standard black school robes worn by Malfoy's loyal enforcer, creating an overall portrait of a dim-witted yet physically imposing bully ready to follow orders.
