Old lines and rich purebloods usually had many house elves to cook, clean, and maintain their houses and wait on the Lord's, Ladies and Heirs. But each family also had a personal elf, one that helped nurse their children and act as babysitters and help the head of House, these elves were always cherished more than others especially by the children they raised. The Malfoy's one such elf was Dobby he stood at about 3 and a half feet, with large pale green eyes that resembled Muggle Tennis balls, a long nose similar to the quills they wrote with paired with bat-like pointed ears. Usually the elf wore a large green jumper with the Malfoy house sigil across the back, unless he was in trouble with Lord Lucius Malfoy in which case he would have to wear a raggedy pillow case. Riddle house had two personal elves due to having twins and not just the single heir, Cinnamon was their primary nanny-elf named by Hermione when they first arrived at the Riddle Manor. Pippin was their second elf, he belongs to Harry named by him after his favorite hobbit.
