[edit] Overview
Avery (whose first name is never given) is a Death Eater. He has remained free.
[edit] Role in the Books
[edit] Philosopher's Stone
[edit] Chamber of Secrets
[edit] Prisoner of Azkaban
[edit] Goblet of Fire
When the Trio are visiting Sirius Black in his cave, Sirius mentions that Avery, from what he heard, got out of Azkaban by saying he had been under the Imperius curse, and was now at large.
When Lord Voldemort returns to life and summons his Death Eaters, Avery is one of the ones who returns to the call. Avery breaks ranks to plead for forgiveness and is rewarded with the Cruciatus curse.
[edit] Order of the Phoenix
In a dream, Harry sees Voldemort discussing a plan with one of his Death Eaters. It seems that Avery has suggested a certain way to retrieve an object, and it has not worked. Augustus Rookwood, a one-time Ministry employee, is explaining that it could never have worked, and Voldemort, hearing this, orders Avery to attend him. Harry wakes up, wrenches his attention away, and tries to ignore Voldemort torturing Avery.
Avery is one of the twelve Death Eaters ranged against Harry and the five other members of Dumbledore's Army in the climactic Battle in the Department of Mysteries. We believe that Avery was one of the ten Death Eaters left standing in the room of the Veil, and thus one of the nine held in that room by Albus Dumbledore's anti-Apparation spell at the end of the battle.
[edit] Half-Blood Prince
Avery is mentioned in passing. Twice, Professor Dumbledore and Harry visit Horace Slughorn's memories of one particular night when Slughorn is meeting with Tom Riddle and his associates. In both of those memories, Slughorn notes that it is eleven o'clock, and says that it is time to send the gathered students off to bed, remarking to two of them, Avery and Lestrange (who could be either Rodolphus or Rabastan), that they have an essay due.
[edit] Deathly Hallows
In Severus Snape's memory, we see Lily Evans expressing dislike of Snape's friends, specifically naming Avery and Mulciber.
