Crack! This is the noise illustrated when the beloved character Dobby apparates, although we have never seen Kreacher apparate we can imagine it would sound the same. These two characters are from the book Harry Potter. Despite bearing some minor similarities the difference between Dobby and Kreacher are clear.             Although Dobby and Kreacher have many differences they share some significant similarities as well. For example, Dobby and Kreacher are both male house elves with bulging eyes and grey skin. They both work for death eaters. These death eaters neglected them because they considered them slaves. To explain the purpose of a house elf is to serve their masters and do the day-to-day chores. 

            Also, Dobby is very different from Kreacher in the sense that Dobby is loyal to Harry Potter. For example, Dobby gives his life to rescue Harry and the others from Malfoy (his past employer) manor in the seventh book. Dobby is loyal to Harry because he believes he can defeat Voldemort and also because Harry freed him. Dobby has good morals and never does anything to harm anyone.  

            In addition, Kreacher is very different from Dobby. Despite their death eater status, Kreacher remains loyal to the questionable Black family. Kreacher lives in the end, but was never freed. Kreacher has bad morals. For example, Kreacher gave away Harrys whereabouts to the death eaters, which could have ended badly. 

            In brief, despite Kreacher’s and Dobby’s similarities, there differences are still more pronounced therefore should receive further investigation because of their contributions to the novel Harry Potter.
