Villains are villains for a reason. Betrayal. Greed. Destruction. In the Harry Potter universe, they want to kill the eponymous boy wizard. While that doesn't make the likes of Lord Voldemort and Lucius Malfoy very sympathetic, it doesn't mean they don't have some heartbreaking moments. Fans online have spotted quite a few of these, in fact, and they might actually make you feel kind of bad for these baddies. For example, after Narcissa makes the Unbreakable Vow with Professor Snape, she's left with a scar on her hand that she'll presumably have for the rest of her life. Before Harry even reaches Hogwarts, he lives with the Dursleys. While life at home is bad enough as is, it's especially rough when you realize they don't even buy Harry his own clothes-- he clearly gets Dudley's baggy hand-me-downs. There's even some reason to feel sorrow for Voldemort himself! If you watch closely over the franchise, you'll notice that the robes He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named wears fade in color as the Horcruxes are destroyed!
