I did do a search so before anybody tells me ther's a thread like this already...

Anyway. Most people all seem to either love (why?!) or hate (that's better!)Kreacher. Although his mutterings are quite funny, I personally hate him - I hold him responsible for the deth of my beloved Sirius.

So in this thread, all you need to do is put one word, either 'love' or 'hate' and at the end i'll count them all up and find the love:hate ratio of Kreacher.

I cant stand that creature (Kreacher, hehe), he is soooo annoying, and he's a liar!


HATE!

I hate Kreacher he is so annoying and he is not that royal to Sirius. also it is somewhat his fault that Sirius died.

Kreacher was cute with his muttering (the part about the twins was particularly funny), but when I found out that he was a little turncoat and not being loyal to Sirius, I wanted to chase after him with my dad's chef knife. He should be boiled in acid, he should.

I can't say I've encountered anyone so far who likes Kreacher.

He's a treacherous, spiteful and generally malevolent; what's there to like?

Anyway, I'd say I dislike Kreacher a whole lot.

My vote goes to:

Love

Although Kreacher may be a pest, he is loyal to Mother Black and adds a bit of humor to a dark book.

His constant muttering makes for comedy relief, and in my opinion, brightens up a dark Grimmauld Place.

HATE!! Can't stand him. It will be interesting to see, if Harry inherits Sirius' estate, what happens between them.

Love 6:1 hate - so far!

(The reason I know that some people love him is that about 20% of people voted him their favourite new character in OOTP - I was outraged!)

I love him and hate him :). I liked him when he was muttering to himself and "kissing the bloomers," but when I found out he lied to Harry my opinion of him completely changed. He's still entertaining though :D.

Well, Kreacher is funny...quite hilarious, actually. But what he did at the end was not very nice, to say the least. So I don't hate him, I just dislike him :p

Like but not in any suggestive way. Kreacher rocks.

I actually like Kreacher as a character. I think it is kind of cool to have a maniac house elf bent on revenge....

I personally didnt care for Kreacher. He was funny tho. I liked how he mumbled and stuff. But I dislike him somehow.

Kaonashi
December 31st, 2003, 3:31 am
Hmmm..I'd have to say indifferent to him. Even though what he did at the end was evil. Kreacher is what he has been made by wizards. And not blaming Sirius death on himself, but he wasn't exactly nice to Kreacher, either. But Kreacher isn't exactly the lovable type.

I think if Harry gets Sirius's estate he will be a little mean to Krecher because he will blame Krecher for Sirius's death. After all if Sirius told Harry that he was safe at home Harry would never have gone to rescue Sirius at the Department of Ministries and Sirius would never have gone to rescue him and died in the process. Ofcourse Krecher had no way Sirius would die but still Harry will blame him. I hope he does be mean to Krecher because Krecher is annoying ofcourse Hermione will say something about that. But Harry will get mad at her and say it is Krecher's fault that Sirius is dead and he was disroyal. Harry never felt bad or an house elf except for Dobly. They will probably have a big fight over this and make up later.

I just HATE Kreacher... (Although I like Voldie and Crouch...)

I cannot stand that thing. I really think Kreacher deserves all the pain and torture in the world done to him. :evil:

Hate! I couldn't stand his nonsensical muttering... But then I dislike every single one of the house elves we've met so far. Dobby: constantly referring to himself in the third person. Winky: drowning herself in her own stupid sorrows without trying to do anything to help herself. Blegh! Don't get me wrong -- I know plenty of people who adore house elves. They just don't interest me.

I also hate all the House elves. They are annoying and they deserve the way their masters treat them they are disroyal. Dobby is annoying. So Is Kretcher and like I said before if she had been honest with Harry Sirius would still be alive and deatheater said that too.

Hate- Though he can be funny at times he is partially responsible for Sirius's death. The nasty bugger!

swishandflick
January 2nd, 2004, 5:19 am
Hate---the only time I ever thought Kreatcher was funny was when he reffered to Fred and George as "unnatural little beasts". Ultimately though; he's a nasty little thing and I don't really care about his dark and troubled past.

January 6th, 2004, 9:15 pm
Hate! I never liked him but after what Dumbledore told about Kreacher going to Malfoys, liying to Harry I hate him. He has some responsability in my dear Sirius dead.

dobby_rocks
January 8th, 2004, 11:56 pm
I dont hate him, i hate what he did to Siruis, but like DD said, Kreecher is the way he is because of the way he was treat by the Black family. Then abonded for over a decade by himself and Mrs. Blacks crazy photo :huh:

I loath Kreacher. I really feel that he added to Sirius's downfall. At first there was some pity but by the end of the book I wanted his head on the wall.

Furienna
January 9th, 2004, 2:18 pm
I neither love nor hate Kreacher (yes, his name does sound excactly like creature :lol: ). Yes, he is responsable to Sirius' death and its consequenses, but really, he couldn't have acted differently. His mind has been poisoned by Sirius' parents, maybe even his grandparents, do we know for how long house elves can live? Remember him going on calling the Weasleys blood traitors and Hermione mud blood, though neither were really nice things to say, but that was how he had been raised in that pure-bloodist house. And he felt more loyal to Narcissa than to Sirius, though Narcissa didn't live at 12 Grimmauld Place, while Sirius did, when she was more alike her uncle and aunt, the ones Kreacher really had been loyal in this world, than what Sirius was alike his parents. You can pity him too. As Dumbledore said, he is what he is made by wizards.

Kreacher...ummm....well he is interesting that's for sure.

However, I do love him as a character, he does his job quite well as being the one that the audience will definetly dislike. In the end though, I dislike him, selfish little creature.... :grumble:

January 10th, 2004, 6:02 pm
HATE!!!!! I just hate Kreacher. It was his fault Sirius died, and he wasn't even a good house-elf, he didn't cook, clean, or anything, he was just a pest.

LaFeeVerte
January 11th, 2004, 3:25 am
I think Kreacher is too complex a character to lump my feelings towards him into either love or hate. I really feel that Kreacher is a product of his environment and because of that I feel really sorry for him. However,I do have very strong feelings against him because of Sirius but I don't completely dislike him yet because i'm not convinced that Sirius is really gone or isn't coming back. And as someone else said Sirius wasn't very nice towards him either.

Rose Zeller
January 12th, 2004, 2:21 am
I don't care what Hermione said Kreacher was a pain in the you know where!

I wish Dumbeldore had taken him out after he found out about
Kreacher's betrayl.

Yeah i dont hate him either despite most who dislike his behavior. He certainly is a grumpy old house elf. But I'm going to have to disagree with above. Kreacher was very very loyal to Mrs. Black, thus why he liked to talk/listen endlessly to her portrait after she died. It was Sirius who Kreacher had no loyalty to. He is bound to Sirius by Sirius's Blacks pureblood line but in the book, kreacher respects only Narcissa Black. It doesn't say anything about Bellatrix either (Kreacher respecting her was not in there). Note too that Sirius Black says the same thing about Bellatrix. The word "her" refering to Bellatrix only meant her.
There is a lot to Kreacher than meets the eye, and I'm gonna have to go with Hermione here. Not Harry or Sirius.
Granted, he didn't betray the OotP, but only Sirius himself. This shows a lot of reasons why.

January 27th, 2004, 1:26 am
I have to agree, I really don't feel a lot of sympathy towards Kreacher. He was rude and surley and technically wasn't being loyal to Mrs. Black. Yes, he was taking orders from her picture, which was the essence of her. Yet, he still betrayed her son. [I know she was mad at him, I just can't fathom hating your child so much that you want him/her to die.]

I feel sorry for him.
He reminds me of Grumpy in Snow white.
Sirius was horrible to him and you sow what you reap.
Doesn't mean it's right, but that's the way the world works.

teffybob
January 31st, 2004, 3:16 pm
I don't hate him, but I don't like him either. I feel kind of sorry for him because he was living all alone for the longest time then Sirius comes to live there, and Sirius hates Kreacher. But I don't like him either. I lost that when he sent Harry to the Department of Mysteries.

Sometimes you have to love a surly elf or dwarf! But betrayl is way to big a problem. So no hugs for kreacher!

Furienna
February 10th, 2004, 8:43 am
I just can't fathom hating your child so much that you want him/her to die.

Most parents wouldn't be like that, but unfortuneately, some are. Think about all the fathers and brothers honor murdering their daughters respectively sisters in some countries. Some parents are such, that they hate you if you defy their will.

I hate him, he's a little punk.

But yet, I find him hilarious- all that muttering to the floor as if no one's around, it cracks me up.

But he's a punk!

I have to say hate. I can't say love, or even love to hate. He's icky and troubling.

Lupin_Lady
March 9th, 2004, 3:26 am
I thought he was cute and funny. He reminded me of an old man who's beginning to lose it!

But then on the other hand, I don't like him for laughing when Sirius died.

But no one can say it was directly Kreature's fault that Sirius Died... he didn't push him through the veil. It was no more his fault than anyone else's.

May 31st, 2004, 8:51 pm
I feel more pity towards Kreacher than hate... Growing up doomed to serve quite possibly the nastiest Wizarding family around must have been awful, and for Kreacher to only look forward to becoming a head trophy is very depressing.

I agree...I also pity Kreacher because of the way he was treated. Both he and Dobby had to serve two of the darkest wizard families there were. But
I still can't help disliking Kreacher because it's pretty much his fault Sirius is dead. :(

Silkeng
May 31st, 2004, 10:55 pm
I pity him and his situation, but when compared to Dobby, you can see that he had a choice even in his situation. So i don't hate or love him, but I don't trust him nor would I want to help him if he needed it.

Slacker
May 31st, 2004, 11:21 pm
I hate him. He might have served a bad family, but he was loyal to them. The only one that he wasn't loyal to was Sirius, who is the only good person in the Black family. Furthermore, not only did he have no regrets about leading Sirius to his death, he apparently was delighted about it and couldn't stop laughing.

I like Kreacher well enough, but not for what he did to Sirius. He just reminds me of Gollum; a little confused, loyal to his cause, and I think he may be a little schizo too, I dunno. But he thought he was doing what was right, in this case getting rid of the one disloyal to the family that he served. I still luffles Sirius, but I don't think Kreacher deserves to be so hated.

Kreacher has no redeeming qualities whatsoever.

jen15poms
June 1st, 2004, 1:14 am
I absolutely despise Kreacher. I think that he is the lowest creature I have encountered in all of the HP series. The fact that he allies himself with the Malfoys is enough to make me hate his guts! Also, he is the reason that Sirius is dead...I JUST CANNOT STAND HIM!!!

Furienna
June 1st, 2004, 2:57 pm
He can't help it though. He was raised that way.

Hogwarts Lake
June 1st, 2004, 3:22 pm
I kind of thought he was funny at first. The way he goes all around the house muttering BUT after what he did to Sirius I don't think I'll ever be able to forgive him!

Now I know I am probably wrong :P but Sirius did not deserve to die because of the way he treated Kreacher in spite of what Dumbledore said (He suffered enough in Azkaban for nothing) so I go with hate

LunaLovegood07
June 1st, 2004, 3:41 pm
I hope Kreacher crawls up into the airing cupboard and dies.lol
But I don't hate him. As disgusted as I am with him what Dumbledore said about him being only what Wizards have made him is true.
I don't blame Sirius. He hated everything about that house. Kreacher would probably have been more sane if he hadn't spent the past decade or more with Sirius' lunatic mother in the first place, making life more tolerable for both Sirius and Kreacher.
But no, Sirius didn't deserve to have Kreacher chase Harry right into a trap, much less lead Sirius indirectly to his death :upset:

moon781
June 1st, 2004, 8:20 pm
I HATE HATE kreacher He is a foul little thing. I hold him responsible for Sirius' death and he IS largely responsible. Of course I can not bring myself to blame harry at all so most of the blame must fall on kreacher.

I think it's pretty clear that most people hate Kreacher. I don't like to use hate because it's such a strong word - but I really disliked him. But I really dislike house elves in general, I think they're creepy. So, I dislike him b/c of he lied to Harry, and because he's a creepy house elf.

Godrics_Heiress
July 8th, 2004, 9:37 am
Well, I dislike him for instigating Sirius' death. But I just don't know how much fault we can blame on him for doing what he did. He was bourne into this mindset that anything but an all-encompassing pureblood sentiment is defamatory to the magical world. So, he's got the immediate prejudice to halfbloods, mudbloods, muggle-loving folks, etc. I mean, that's how he was taught under the Black household, wasn't he? And since Sirius hated the pureblood partiality within his family, I doubt Kreacher had any preconception that he was betraying Sirius by feeding the Malfoys some confidential info. He probably thought it would have made the late Blacks proud of him for doing it.

Anyway, my point is, Kreacher was old, was "conditioned" to hate the people his deceased masters would certainly hate, confused, didn't think about the repercussions of his action, etc. He's misunderstood really and the fact that the Order was indifferent about him was probably the last straw so he turned himself against them. Regardless, given there's only two options to choose from (either love or hate), yeah, I hate the fellah.

Classical_Wizar
July 8th, 2004, 9:45 am
Oh I just love the sniveling creepy house elf. He doesn’t pretend to be anyone but himself, he's loyal beyond death itself, and determine to get his way. What he wants he seeks out to get.

~Tonks~
July 8th, 2004, 9:45 am
I really dislike Kreacher. In fact I sort of dislike house elves in general. Dobby is pretty cool but Winky just annoys me and Kreacher make me feel the way this dog did that belonged to one of our family friends. It was a ratty old scottish terrier with no teeth who was just a pain in the butt and wasn't nice to anyone. I'm against cruelty to animals but even members of Peta would have loved to kick this thing... that's how I feel about Kreacher. (I guess Hermione would be mad at me for saying this.) I think he needs to be promptly removed from Sirius's house, maybe not dismissed with clothes because then he can spill secrets, but he's too close and he's not to be trusted. I partially blame him for Sirius's death and that's way too unforgivable.

ripper48
July 8th, 2004, 11:22 am

He's the reason Sirius is dead.

And I agree, Winky was kind of annoying too.

DerHalfBlood
July 16th, 2004, 5:02 pm
I hated Kreacher. Most other house-elves are treated horribly and still are completely loyal to their masters, and Kreacher was not loyal to Sirius. It is true that Sirius was basically banished from the family, but Kreacher was bound to him so he didn't exactly act as the house elves should. He also tricked Harry into going after Sirius.

This topics been dead for months! lol. Well, to pump a little life into it:

I love Kreacher. Dont get me wrong, what he did warrants a severe beating, maybe even *shudders, clothes. lol.

However, he sort of reminds me of my best friend's grandfather. Wierd. lol

Raven_Girly
November 7th, 2004, 9:42 am
HATE him!

I think Kreacher is a horrible little traitor who is totally responsible for Sirius' death. Although his little mutterings were kind of funny at first, I now know better. He is eeeeevil!

Arwen42
November 7th, 2004, 1:36 pm
When I stated reading the fifth book, I immediately thought Kreacher was going to be a character which I was going to love to hate. I used to laugh when he gave those under-the-breath insults. I even felt a little sorry for him, because I thought he was a little disstressed, crazy.

But after what he did to Black, I just cannot feel pity for him anymore. I dispise that character. I really dislike him. Because of him Black isn't alive anymore, and even though now I clearly know he is crazy, I don't like him anymore. I re-read those insults and all I got was frustrated. So there, from feeling pity for Kreacher, I hate him now.

November 7th, 2004, 2:12 pm
I can't stand Kreacher! I am sure if it wasn't for him, Sirius would still be alive. :upset: He probably would have been less miserable at Grimmauld Place, also.

Some of his comments were kind of funny, though..

I love Kreacher. I don't care how much of a slimeball he is because I think that all house-elves are adorable. I also think it is great that he is loyal to his master and his mother (his goal in life is to have his head on the wall by his mother's).

LuvHP_001
November 8th, 2004, 7:27 am
Hate him! He is a backstabbing,cruel,disgusting creature that deserves to die! He's also got some serious mental issues. Those who say he's that way because of his cruel masters but we can't say that about Dobby,huh? Think not.

starutena
November 8th, 2004, 8:46 pm
I agree with all that pity him. He should be pitied. I hate his actions, but I understand them. He was warped by those he served, and thus became like them. Like DD said, he was made that way by wizards- it is they who deserve our hatred.

Kreacher was meant to serve Sirius not get a Black killed but I do feel for any house elf that has to serve a witch or wizard due to being forced by a magical binding spell of some kind.

Neither. I have no use for him. He's an evil house elf who knows nothing but trickery and blood-biasedness, and, while that is not his fault, I would have a much harder time trying to be nice to him like Hermione. I would try, though.

I hate Kreacher very much. I just uttery dispise and loathe him. However, like Hermione, I would try to be civil with him. I don't want to end up like him, being all mean and nasty and calling people names.

Kreacher, as said before, is the way he is because his owners 'made' him become that way. He was stuck inside that house for years with only Mrs. Blacks painting as company. And even before that, he was brainwashed to belive that his duty, the goal of his life, is to serve and honor those that in his masters eyes, are worthy.
Somewhere along the way he lost his mind... but he isn't to blame.No, I didn't like the way that he betrayed Sirius, or how he tricked Harry, so don't look horrified!

But... you have got to admit,

"...smells like a drain and a riminal to boot, but she's no better, nasty old blood traitor with her brats messing up my mistress's houase, oh, my poor mistress, if she knew, if she knew the sum they've let into her house, what would she say to old Kreacher, oh, the shame od it, Mudbloods and werewolves and traitors and thieves, poor old Kreaher, what an he do..."

LOL!

I like Kreacher well enough, but not for what he did to Sirius. He just reminds me of Gollum; a little confused, loyal to his cause, and I think he may be a little schizo too, I dunno. But he thought he was doing what was right, in this case getting rid of the one disloyal to the family that he served. I still luffles Sirius, but I don't think Kreacher deserves to be so hated.


If you're going to condemn Kreacher for betraying Sirius, you might as well condemn Dobby for betraying Lucius. Both house elves had betrayed their masters, who had mistreated them.

i really dislike Kreature. he's evil and not just mad. i'm sure he's had a horrible life, but i've seen no evidence of any kind of heart in him. i don't believe he's brainwashed. dobby turned out fine, didn't he? like any person, a house elf has a choice to do good or evil. i'm sorry, but having an unhappy life doesn't make up for, or account for, all of his vindictive behavior, IMO.

strangely enough, though, i really have quite a soft spot for LOTR's Gollum. he used to be my favourite character (i blame the ROTK movie for making me resent him!), and i still like him. unlike Kreature, there's a lot of evidence that there's some goodness in him, and in the book it rises, almost to the surface, many times.
you just don't see that with Kreature! he has no redeeming qualities whatsoever; and he's not as interesting a character as Gollum either.

now, i do not condone Sirius' behavior towards Kreature at all. i understand Sirius' motives and i sympathize with him - i love Sirius! - but he acted badly towards Kreature. normally he was a moral guy, and i believe he truly believed what he told The Trio about judging a man based on "how he treats his inferiors, not his equals." Kreature was a special case for him, and it made him forget his morals. he ended up acting in a very hypocritical fashion, although that was never his intent. living with that horrible little house elf he'd loathed from childhood....how would we react?

Have you seen my thread - ' Who is your favourite House Elf?'
Anyway Kreacher gives me the creeps.
Dobby rules!

You have to love to hate Kreacher I reckon...he was twisted, and don't like what he did to Sirius obviously, but he made me laugh as well

Hate. He was interesting in some way, but I hate him.

The only thing that I like about him is the dark humor. Bwahaha.

How can anyone like Kreacher? He is vile. I suppose it is interesting to have an house elf that isn't a crawling, goodie goodie, but then again he is in way because he is so stuck on his 'mistress' (Sirius' mother)

I don't like Kreacher because he's responsible for Sirius's death.

I know he had a hard time being by himself with just the portrait, and yes, Sirius should have been nicer to him, but.... I really do not care. His mutterings annoyed me, and his actions helped lead to Sirius's death. So, no I do not like him. I really hope he just dies by book 6.

Hate. He's really odd, but also a traitor. He's partially responsible for Sirius's death! How could I love him?!?!?!
