Harry Potter and the Last Airbender (79 person items)"Rough Rhinos could be Death Eaters
Connections:
- - All were more than happy to follow the corrupt regime and cause suffering & devastation wherever they went.
- - Also, despite their reputation they were usually quite inept at stopping inexperienced foes.
- - Despite serving no real role in the overall series other than henchman, they were given names anyway; Ogodei, Yeh-Lu, Kahchi, Vachir/Avery, Gibbon, Mulciber, Nott.
