Regulus Black

Regulus Black is a fictional character in the Harry Potter series, and the younger brother of Sirius Black. The Black family was one of dark wizards. According to Sirius, his parents believed that to be a Black made one virtually royalty, and they shared many of the Death Eaters' ideas about blood purity. Unlike his older brother Sirius, Regulus had a similar mentality to theirs, and for that reason, it seems he was the favourite son of their mother.

When Lord Voldemort rose to power, Regulus joined Voldemort and his parents thought he was a "little hero" for becoming a Death Eater. When he started to realize what was expected of him as a Death Eater, he began to panic and wanted to quit, but being a Death Eater is a lifelong service on pain of death. According to sources, Regulus was killed on Voldemort's orders, or possibly by Voldemort himself.
