Personality[]
Kreacher was usually hostile, bitter, and miserable and had a habit of insulting people, including his masters. Kreacher was very loyal to all the members of the Black family except Sirius Black, whom he hated because he treated Kreacher poorly. Kreacher was also very loyal to people who treated him with kindness and respect, particularly Sirius's younger brother, Regulus. He later grew loyal to Harry Potter and started to be friendly towards Harry, Ron, and Hermione. As a result, Kreacher grew less hostile and was happier than he had been in many years, resuming most of his expected duties.

Like all house-elves, Kreacher was considerably smaller than a human. He was described as having a bulbous, snout-like nose, bloodshot eyes, many folds of skin, and white hair growing out of his bat-like ears.
