Dumbledore was also the founder and leader of the Order of the Phoenix , an organisation that Remus joined after graduating from school, and he was trusted with many important missions. Remus was given the position of Defence Against the Dark Arts Professor at Hogwarts during the — school year, during which time Dumbledore requested that Snape brew the Wolfsbane Potion for Remus monthly; this, along with providing Remus with a paid job when he was suffering in poverty due to his condition, made Remus respect Dumbledore even more.
Remus and Dumbledore fought alongside one another during the Battle of the Department of Mysteries , where they suffered a devastating loss: Sirius, one of their dearest friends, died at the hands of Bellatrix Lestrange. Remus told Harry Potter on several occasions that he trusted Snape because Dumbledore did so. In , Remus was devastated by Dumbledore's death after the Battle of the Astronomy Tower , and demonstrated his loyalty and faith to Dumbledore by fighting and where he was assassinated by Antonin Dolohov a very powerful wizard he was avenged by Professor Filius Flitwick, his former teacher.
Remus was always friendly with the Weasley family. Arthur and Remus fought together at the Battle of the Seven Potters , where the latter was paired with Arthur's son, George. He saved George's life, as George would have fallen off his broomstick when he was cursed by Severus Snape. Arthur later thanked him for taking care of his son. Remus also lived for some time with the Weasley family at 12 Grimmauld Place.
However, when Sirius argued with Molly, Remus didn't take either side. Bill and Remus seemed to have been friends, as they fought together in several battles of the Second War; they were also the ones who attempted to find Mad-Eye 's dead body after the Battle of the Seven Potters. After the war, Remus and Tonks' son seemed to have a romantic relationship with Bill and Fleur's daughter.
Fred and George Weasley were also friends of Lupin. They were Lupin's students during their fifth year at Hogwarts and they also fought together at the Battle of the Seven Potters. Remus protected George from being killed; however, George's ear was accidentally cut off by Severus Snape. Lupin and the twins also appeared on the underground radio programme Potterwatch and spoke to the wizarding community during the last year of the war.
Both Fred and Lupin were killed during the Battle of Hogwarts. He was also friends with Ginny. He first met her at Hogwarts Express , saved her from the Dementors and gave her chocolate and comforted her, and she stated that he was one of her favourite professors at Hogwarts.
They fought on the same side at the Battle of the Department of Mysteries and survived the battle. After the war, Ginny and the rest of the Potter family shared a close relationship with Teddy Lupin, who came to Ginny and Harry's house for dinner four times a week.

They met each other again during the Battle of Hogwarts, when Percy told his family that he had left the Ministry and wanted to join the Order, though there would hardly have been time for the two to become close. Minerva McGonagall , his former head of house and professor.
When Lupin was a student at Hogwarts, the professors seemed to like him, especially Minerva McGonagall, who had been his head of house. His professors probably considered Lupin a skilled wizard and a very good student, as he was made a prefect in his fifth year. When Lupin became a professor, the other professors appeared to like and respect him, with the exception of Severus Snape.
They either did not mind that he was a werewolf or did not show it, as they had been informed of his condition. Many of them later fought alongside Remus at the Battle of Hogwarts. While others, such as Draco Malfoy and several other Slytherins , disliked and regularly insulted him. Malfoy underestimated Lupin because of his poor-looking appearance. However, Lupin managed to be well-respected and one of the best-liked professors , as he treated all the students based on their character, and not by their magical abilities, their blood status, or their wealth.
When he left Hogwarts, many students continued to regard him as the best Defence Against the Dark Arts teacher they had. The original Order of the Phoenix. Remus had a good relationship with the most of the Order of the Phoenix.

Lupin human form as a POP! Lupin werewolf form as a POP! Rowling has stated that Professor Lupin is the kind of teacher she wishes she had while she was a student. He is good-natured, kind, and able to extract the best in everyone — for example, in spotting Neville Longbottom 's lack of confidence and helping him to overcome it by teaching him how to defeat the boggart.
The fact that Remus is a werewolf and needs to take a potion to avoid hurting people for the rest of his life makes him a symbol of the consequences of prejudice and segregation, as well as society's often negative reaction to the ill and the disabled.
Particularly, the author has stated that Remus Lupin's characterisation and history are H. As such, Rowling has also stated that "Lupin's failing is he likes to be liked.
That's where he slips up — he's been disliked so often he's always pleased to have friends so cuts them an awful lot of slack. Lupin was killed off in place of Arthur Weasley to remove the last of Harry's father figures in the books, and also to create a parallel between Harry's life and Teddy Lupin's. Rowling felt it was important to show the evils of Voldemort's actions and the devastating nature of war.

My parents tried everything, but in those days there was no cure. The Potion that Professor Snape has been making for me is a very recent discovery.
It makes me safe, you see. As long as I take it in the week preceding the full moon, I keep my mind when I transform I am able to curl up in my office, a harmless wolf , and wait for the moon to wane again. Before the Wolfsbane Potion was discovered, however, I became a fully fledged monster once a month. It seemed impossible that I would be able to come to Hogwarts.
Other parents weren't likely to want their children exposed to me. It is very painful to turn into a werewolf. I was separated from humans to bite, so I bit and scratched myself instead. The villagers heard the noise and the screaming and thought they were hearing particularly violent spirits. Remus : " I assume that's why you didn't tell me, Sirius? And will you forgive me for believing you were the spy?
Boggarts like dark, enclosed spaces. This one moved in yesterday afternoon, and I asked the headmaster if the staff would leave it to give my third years some practise. The biggest bit of Peter they found was his finger. So was his body. His shoulders were hunching. Hair was sprouting visibly on his face and hands, which were curling into clawed paws.
They will not want a werewolf teaching their children, Harry. And after last night, I see their point. I could have bitten any of you That must never happen again. Main article: Battle of the Department of Mysteries. Harry Potter : " What have you been up to lately? Almost literally. Dumbledore wanted a spy and here I was I am not complaining; it is necessary work and who can do it better than I?
However, it has been difficult gaining their trust. I bear the unmistakable signs of having tried to live among wizards, you see, whereas they have shunned normal society and live on the margins, stealing — and sometimes killing — to eat. It is an odd case, possibly unique Main article: Battle of the Seven Potters. These people are trying to capture and kill you! At least stun if you aren't prepared to kill! I should never have married her, I've made her an outcast!
And the child — the child It will be like me, I am convinced of it! How can I forgive myself when I knowingly risked passing on my own condition to an innocent child?! And if, by some miracle, it is not like me, then it will be better off, a hundred times so, without a father of whom it should always be ashamed! Nymphadora Tonks : " Have you seen Remus? Sorry I will never know him He looked ill and exhausted. Though quite young, his light brown hair was flecked with grey.
Professor Lupin appeared to be holding a handful of flames. Nymphadora Tonks : " I don't care either, I don't care! I've told you a million times [ Tonks deserves somebody young and whole. And after all, Remus, young and whole men do not necessarily remain so. I was terrified they would desert me the moment they found out what I was.
But of course, they, like you, Hermione, worked out the truth Instead, they did something for me that would make my transformations not only bearable, but the best times of my life. They became Animagi. Remus Lupin : " It comes down to whether or not you trust Dumbledore's judgement. I do; therefore, I trust Severus. He says it himself. And you — do you honestly like Snape? We shall never be bosom friends, perhaps; after all that happened between James and Sirius and Severus, there is too much bitterness there.
It's possible that Lupin received these scars from Greyback or from other werewolves during his transformation. Additionally, the scars could have been self-inflicted. After all, Lupin was deeply unhappy about his status. He could have harmed himself in his fits of anger. There are two main reasons for Lupin's shabby appearance in all of the Harry Potter books and movies. First and foremost, Lupin's monthly transformations caused him to go through clothes like crazy.
They tended to rip, fray, or get utterly ruined when he became a werewolf. Secondly, due to his status as a werewolf, it was particularly hard for Lupin to get or keep a job. Therefore, it's easy to determine that he didn't have all that much money to buy new clothing.
Regardless of the precise reason for his poor wardrobe, Lupin was teased for it by Draco Malfoy during Prisoner of Azkaban. He could have also been pestered for it during his time as a student, but in all likelihood, the other Marauders came to his defense.
One of the truest signs of a powerful witch or wizard is their ability to use non-verbal and wandless magic. This means that they don't need the powers of a wand to harness or bring forth their own genetic abilities.
Remus Lupin was one such wizard. Numerous times during J. Rowling's masterful series, Lupin used his skills without so much as drawing his unicorn-hair core wand. He could easily open locks or relight candles just with the wave of his hand. This was very similar to Albus Dumbledore and Gellert Grindelwald, who were known to be some of the most powerful wizards in history, though Remus didn't use it at the same level.
During Lupin's time as a student at Hogwarts, Albus Dumbledore always had his back. After all, he was the one to arrange for Lupin to be taken to the Shrieking Shack during his monthly transformations. This prevented Lupin from accidentally harming other students or teachers when he lost control. It was known as one of the most haunted buildings in all of Britain. This is because the citizens of Hogsmeade constantly heard shrieking coming from the old home. Even the Hogwarts ghosts were afraid of going inside.
However, the shrieks coming from within weren't from spirits; they were actually from Lupin's horrible transformations. Like everything in Rowling's series, the Shack wasn't as it first appeared. One of the most lovable aspects of Lupin was that he always had a piece of chocolate on hand.
He believed that chocolate was one of the best medicines for any ailment, be it physical or emotional. It's highly likely that Lupin was allergic to the very thing he loved to give to children and eat himself, because he was a werewolf.
In literature, including Rowling's series, werewolves have similar chemical make-ups to real canines. As all dog owners know, chocolate is one of the most awful things to feed a canine, because it contains a significant amount of theobromine as well as caffeine, both of which can be lethal if a dog consumes enough of it. Perhaps Lupin only ate a little bit of chocolate as he knew he would be harmful to him.
Either way, it was just another aspect of his terrible curse. Charms were one of the magical skills that Remus Lupin showed proficiency for at a young age.
It was a trait that he and his fellow Marauders Sirius, James, and Peter all had in common. It's what gave them the ability to create such a unique and detailed magical object as the Marauder's Map. For those who can't remember, the Marauder's Map was an enchanted parchment that portrayed the castle and grounds of Hogwarts in full-detailed.
It also showed the whereabouts of every student, teacher, and staff member that occupied the school. For the Marauders, it was an essential tool that helped them sneak around undetected. Additionally, Lupin was able to cast a corporeal Patronus, which was concerned to be a very advanced form of Charm magic. This popular fanon might have come about because of The Shoebox Project 's popularity, as in that fic, Remus loves chocolate.
This popular fanon trope possibly also stems from The Shoebox Project. It's worth noting that canonically , werewolves in human form are indistinguishable from other humans, so werewolves would likely not have a remarkable feature such as golden eyes in human form.
A popular theory was that Remus may have been Harry's father. Before the revelation that his middle name was John, some guessed the J might stand for James, and believed that somehow he was Harry's father, or that James Potter and the true Remus had switched places the night of the attack, and he was now stuck in Remus's body.
The theory that the "Remus" who appeared in Prisoner of Azkaban was in fact James Potter was popularized by the book Ultimate Unofficial Guide to the Mysteries of Harry Potter , published in early , [4] and was much discussed and debated in fandom.
Rowling in the FAQs of her official website in late Rowling called it an "ingenious theory", but wrong: "James would never have saved himself and left his wife and son to die. A related theory was that Remus himself was Harry's true father all along, unbeknownst to James. This took Severitus -type explanations as to why Harry would look so much like James if he were not his biological son.
Some fans expected or hoped that Remus would be canonically gay. Rowling discussed this at the Harry Potter Lexicon Trial in Many fans were disappointed by Remus's relationship with Tonks in Half-Blood Prince and Deathly Hallows , and felt that the relationship felt forced and heteronormative.
For example, Tumblr user rereadingharry writes:. Rowling's knowledge, told me that I [Lupin] was in fact gay", and that he therefore played Lupin "rather gayly, for quite a long time.
