Rufus Scrimgeour is the new Minister of Magical Affairs in Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. It is his job to stop the Death Eaters. The Second Wizardry War is in earnst, because You-Know-Who or Lord Voldemort has returned. He meets with the Prime Minister of England to discuss the problem of the Death Eaters.

Scrimgeour travels to the Prime Minister's office with a sprinkle of floo powder in the fireplace. Of course, the essence of the meeting remains with the Prime Minister, but Rufus alters his memory. Remember, when a Muggle sees a Wizard, a wizard alters his memory.

Rufus Scrimgeour takes over as the Minister of Magical Affairs after Cornelis Fudge is sacked. The wizardry world place their trust in him to stop the Death Eaters and Lord Voldemort. He is going to be one busy wizard in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. Do you think he will be one of the two characters killed? He does have a dangerous job!
