Lily Potter

Lily Evans-Potter was the mother of Harry Potter who was killed by Lord Voldemort along with her husband on October 31st, 1981. It was because of her sacrifice to protect Harry that Voldemort was unable to kill him. She appears in LEGO Harry Potter: Years 1-4 as a ghost, and she also appeared in 4721 Hogwarts Classrooms in a sticker which represented the Mirror of Erised. She was finally released as a physical minifigure in 71028 Wizarding World Series 2.
==Background==
As a child, Lily Evans was alienated from her friends upon the emergence from her magic powers. She found kinship with Professor Snape, who quickly became her best friend. They attended Hogwarts together, but Lily grew closer to James Potter, making Snape jealous. Following the deaths of Lily and James at the hands of Voldemort, Snape decided to change sides and protect her son from the Death Eaters. She has appeared to Harry on multiple occasions, most notably in the Mirror of Erised and before his "final battle" with Lord Voldemort, alongside James, Sirius Black, and Remus Lupin. Harry named his daughter "Lily" after her.

== Notes ==
* In the video game, both James and Lily react to what's going on with Professor Quirrell and Harry from the Mirror of Erised. For example: looking frightened when Voldemort starts to bear down on Harry, laughing when he cannot pick up the stone, and applauding when Harry disintegrates Quirrel/Voldemort, even though they are simply part of Harry's imagination.
