Ron Weasley

Ron Weasley is a Minifigure. He was first released in 2001, and has appeared in a large number of -themed sets, though not nearly as many as his best friend Harry. 
==Description==
Ron's Minifigure has bright orange hair and is nearly always wearing a Hogwarts uniform with a Gryffindor badge. He has appeared in two out of the four Hogwarts sets from 2010 in (Diagon Alley) in 2011. He is also given a new hairpiece that was previously seen on Max, and a few Collectable Minifigures in different colors. In later versions he has a double-sided headpiece; one side with his relaxed grin, the other with a scared look.

==BackgroundRonald Weasley==
 
Ronald Bilius "Ron" Weasley (b. 1 March, 1980) was an English pure-blood wizard, the sixth and youngest son of Arthur and Molly Weasley (née Prewett). He was also the younger brother of Bill, Charlie, Percy, Fred, George, and the elder brother of Ginny. Ron and his siblings lived at The Burrow, on the outskirts of Ottery St Catchpole, Devon.
Ron began attending Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in 1991 and was Sorted into Gryffindor House. He soon became close friends with fellow student Harry Potter and later Hermione Granger. Together, they made the Golden Trio, they faced many challenges during their adolescence, including keeping the Philosopher's Stone from Professor Quirinus Quirrell, rescuing Ginny from the Basilisk of the Chamber of Secrets, saving Harry's godfather Sirius Black from the Dementors of Azkaban, guiding Harry through the Triwizard Tournament, forming Dumbledore's Army and fighting in numerous battles of the Second Wizarding War: including the Battle of the Department of Mysteries (1996), Battle of the Astronomy Tower (1997), and Battle of the Seven Potters (1997). Ron also became a Gryffindor prefect and a Keeper on the Gryffindor Quidditch team during his fifth year at Hogwarts.
He skipped his last year of school in order to accompany Harry and Hermione on a hunt to destroy all of Lord Voldemort's Horcruxes and fought in the Battle of Hogwarts in 1998, during which he lost his brother Fred, a loss which devastated him and his family, especially George, Fred's twin.
After the war, Ron became an Auror and helped reform and revolutionize the Ministry of Magic. After two years as an Auror, he went to work at Weasleys' Wizard Wheezes with his brother George. He and Hermione eventually married and had two children, Rose and Hugo Granger-Weasley. Ron was also named the godfather of James Sirius Potter, his sister Ginny Weasley's and Harry Potter's eldest child.
