Death Eater

Evil magical follower

Death Eater is a follower of the dark wizard Voldemort in the Harry Potter series—members of his inner circle who practice dark magic and pursue wizard supremacy over non-magical people.

The term has escaped its fictional origins to describe fanatical devotees of evil causes or authoritarian leaders: The senator's most loyal supporters act like Death Eaters.
