In the Harry Potter series Lord Voldemort is the ultimate villain. When he is fully formed he is tall, bald and has a snake like nose. He always wears long black robes and carries a very powerful wand. Throughout the books Voldemort plots, not only kill Harry Potter, but to take over the wizard world. Voldemort and his supporters go after those closest to Harry and those trying to stop him, some they even kill. In the conclusion of the series he and his key followers (for example Bellatrix Lestrange) are destroyed by Harry Potter and the world goes back to normal.
