Peter Pettigrew

Also known as Wormtail, Pettigrew, Peter

Major
First seen · Book 3

A very short man hardly taller than Harry and Hermione stands cringing and wringing his hands with a shrunken build as though he was once plump but lost a lot of weight quickly. His thin colorless hair is unkempt with a large bald patch on top, his skin looks grubby and pasty with an ashen tone, and his face shines with beads of sweat. A pointed nose and very small watery eyes give him a rat-like look as he breathes fast and shallow, his eyes darting toward doors and windows, while he points using his middle finger due to the missing index finger on his right hand.

Description

A small gray rat with a tattered left ear, one missing front toe, and a long bald tail. Its fur is thin and patchy, with wide bald patches in its most emaciated appearance; its whiskers droop. It looks battered and woebegone.
