Vincent Crabbe

Vincent Crabbe, a fictional character in the Harry Potter books, is a student at Hogwarts and a member of Slytherin House. Crabbe, along with Gregory Goyle, are rarely seen without their ringleader Draco Malfoy.
Crabbe is large, has gorilla-like arms, and wears a pudding bowl-style haircut. He is very mean and very stupid, which makes him little more than a 'follower' of Malfoy. In Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, he joined the Inquisitorial Squad.
He seems unable to make up his own mind or to see things his own way; he is generally told what to do. Nonetheless he is depicted as more intelligent than Goyle.
His and Goyle's personalities are sometimes questioned by some readers, as Slytherins are typically described as "cunning". However, both are likely power-hungry, or simply do not fit into the other houses as well as they fit into Slytherin.
His father Crabbe Sr. is a Death Eater.
