AurorIn the Harry Potter series of novels, Aurors are employees of the Ministry of Magic who track down and capture Dark Wizards, especially members of Lord Voldemort's band of Death Eaters. They are required to train extensively in advanced magical fighting, and must have good academic credentials before they are accepted on a training programme (which normally lasts three years). The job is seen as somewhat glamorous by some. Harry Potter becomes increasingly interested in becoming an Auror as the novels progress. According to Professor Minerva McGonagall to be accepted for Auror training, one has to have a minimum of five NEWTs (and no grade lower than "Exceeds Expectations"). Then, prospective Aurors are required to undergo a stringent series of character and aptitude tests to show they react well under pressure and have very high skills in practical defence. Auror training takes three years, and two of the lessons that it includes are "Concealment and Disguise" and "Stealth and Training". Aurors we've seen in the series include: Auror
