When Voldemort returned, Lucius once again served him as a
The prophecy was defeated in the ensuing war, and Lucius and his companions were imprisoned in Azkaban in 1996. Despite the fact that Voldemort freed them from prison in 1997, he was angry with Lucius for his failure and regarded the Malfoys with contempt.
The Malfoys didn't go to Azkaban mainly because at the end of the day, they put their family over Voldemort.
It's more like he was released so that he and his family could be subjected to further torment as punishment for his multiple failures over the years. Voldemort 'rescued' Bellatrix Lestrange from Azkaban in book five, he found the time to release Lucius later on, when it was convenient.
Lucius Malfoy is one of the only Death Eaters to go through an actual character arc in the series. During this arc, we see him fall from Lord Voldemort's favor. This shattered his confidence, and thus impacted his magical abilities.
Despite being a valued Death Eater in the days before Voldemort fell following his attack on baby Harry, Lucius stumbled out of favor with the Dark Lord when he squandered Riddle's diary (secretly a horcrux) in Chamber of Secrets and failed to obtain the prophecy in Order of the Phoenix.
In the battle that ensued, the prophecy was destroyed, and Lucius and his comrades were imprisoned in Azkaban in 1996. Although Voldemort broke them out of prison in 1997, he was displeased with Lucius for his failures and treated the Malfoys with much disdain and abuse.
Voldemort intentionally made six Horcruxes, but when he used Avada Kedavra on Harry, he unintentionally created a seventh Horcrux. Instead of dying, Lily's love for Harry created a counter 'curse' known as Sacrificial Protection and saved Harry.
Lucius and his family defected at the end of the Second Wizarding War and were thus pardoned for their crimes after Voldemort's final defeat. He and Narcissa later had a grandson, Scorpius Malfoy, after Draco married Astoria Greengrass.
It is also probable that, since Narcissa's lie to Voldemort saved Harry's life, the family is pardoned for their crimes. They keep a relatively low profile after that, while continuing to live a leisurely life in the Malfoy Manor.
Draco Malfoy attended Fred Weasley's funeral. He stood in the far back, careful not to be seen, and after he thought everyone had left, he lingered a bit. He'd never let on that he secretly thought the twins were quite funny, and he was truly sorry he'd been part of the reason that Fred died.
Because Arthur was a “blood traitor”: A pureblood who associated with Muggles/did not view them as inferior. It outraged him that someone lucky enough to be “pure” refused to embrace that purity, and instead wanted to protect Muggles and was in fact fascinated by their culture. Also, the rich look down on the poor.
In the end, it is Narcissa's lie to Voldemort concerning Harry's death that enables the Malfoys to narrowly avoid imprisonment in Azkaban.
In fact, Lucius' own support to Voldemort is revealed to come only under some form of duress, which is likely Narcissa's Veela Allure. When Lucius turns on Voldemort due to the reveal of his Horcruxes, Narcissa divorces him, taking 75% of Malfoy's wealth with her.
Bill is viciously mauled by the werewolf, Fenrir Greyback. Fortunately, as Fenrir was not transformed at the time, Bill did not become a werewolf, though Madam Pomfrey is unable to completely heal his face, and he remains permanently scarred.
Narcissa Malfoy is often credited with saving Harry's life by not telling Voldemort about him. The only reason she does this is because she thinks Draco may still be alive, and she is not willing to chance to lose her son. While this saved Harry, she ultimately did it for herself and Draco.
Following his failure to obtain an important prophecy at the end of Order of the Phoenix, Lucius is sent to Azkaban for a while until Voldemort breaks him out, although he doesn't play much of a role in the series going forward.
While disguised as Moody, Crouch attacks Draco by turning him into a ferret. Initially, this comes across as a gesture of goodwill as “Moody” says he did it because Draco was going to curse Harry behind his back.
Barty Crouch Jr.'s Malfoy Hate Explained
His hatred of these sorts of Death Eaters probably stems from being locked in Azkaban for years for his service to Voldemort while others, like Lucius, walked free.
Draco Malfoy's mother Narcissa was cold, cunning and devoted to the Dark Lord. But she was also a mother, which meant she was willing to risk everything to make sure her son was safe. When Harry survived Voldemort's Killing Curse for the second time, Narcissa pretended he was dead so she could get to Draco.
Though Harry encountered many opportunities that deemed Avada Kedavra necessary, it remains as one of the Unforgivable Curses Harry Potter never cast. For one, he viewed the spell as an immoral practice commonly used by users of the Dark Arts.
Lily's Protection In Voldemort's Blood Saved Harry
When Lord Voldemort returned Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, he used Harry's blood - which is partially how Harry survived Avada Kedavra in the forest.
Narcissa's greatest moment, however, was when she chose to betray Voldemort in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. Not knowing whether Draco was alive or dead, Narcissa chose to lie to the Dark Lord rather than risk losing her son.
Voldemort hugged Draco as an improvisation and it wasn't planned. Even Tom Felton (Draco Malfoy) was caught unaware which increased the effect. In Harry Potter style, it was like a welcome for Draco, but as Voldemort had never known love, he didn't know how to hug him very well. Thats why they had the awkward hug.
Hedwig's killer is not explicitly identified, so he/she may have appeared in other books, films or video games, but the only known appearance is Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows and Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1. A popular fan theory based on book canon suggests that Snape may have killed Hedwig.
