Remus Lupin

## Appearance

Small and sickly-looking. Remus is pale and has constant dark circles under his gold-amber eyes. If he gets enough sun, he gets freckles. Remus has tawny hair that is sort of limp and shaggy and goes past his ears. He has long bangs he uses to hide his eyes. There is a scar on his upper left arm from the bite that turned him into a werewolf.

Remus doesn't pay much attention to his clothes, especially when he is in a hurry.

## History

Remus lived in the small community of Hollyhock Hollow in Wales for the first four and a half years of his life. On October 21st, 1964 Remus was bitten by the werewolf Fenrir Greyback out of revenge for things that Lyall said. Lyall brought him inside where Hope worked hard to save his life, ultimately using a mixture of silver and dittany to seal the wound The Lupins moved to just outside Dragon's Field, Wales where Remus was raised in a very strict household without much freedom. Before Hogwarts, he never really met anyone else aside from his father's boss once who gave him a lollipop.

The first Christmas after Remus became a werewolf, he was given a black stuffed dog he named Gwyllgi. Gwyllgi is important to Remus and comforts him, but he's afraid of what other students will think of him if they find out about it, so he tries to keep it hidden.

## Relationships

Remus attends a study group with students from his year but from all houses. He has developed friendships with Lily Evans and Aegis Silverlocke. Craft is a prat and Twycross is the WORST.

He is also best friends with James Potter, Sirius Black and Peter Pettigrew. They are part of a group that they call the Marauders.

He has begun studying with Regulus Black.

Remus is one of the few students Farrow has smiled at.
