Remus Lupin ♚ Halfblood ♚ 16 ♚ Order Member ♚ Andrew Garfield ♚ Played By Jay
Remus Lupin was the only son of Lyall and Hope Lupin. He was cursed with lycanthropy (werewolf curse) by Fenrir Greyback as a child. It was payback against Remus’ father. Since he was a child he has had to secretly deal with his painful changes, and most recently suppressants that cause him not only physical discomfort but also mental pain, therefor he usually tries to avoid taking them at all costs.
Remus hopes to go on to do something great, however his only goal that he can truly focus on is the Order. The Order of the Phoenix that is. War is looming for everyone, and he knows it. He was inducted into the Order at the young age of sixteen. They don’t wish for him to be an active member though as he has yet to graduate.
He has hopes that him and his friends will survive the coming war and that they can continue their lives with all their dreams in tact, however he knows it’s unlikely. It hurts him inside to know that there is a very good chance he will lose all those he loves and possibly himself. It was only him in danger things would be different, no one needed him around. Sadly, an entire world was in danger. He’s ready to fight, but he’s not ready to lose.
Headcanons:
Remus is bi-curious. He always has been however, if anyone were to ask his sexuality he would make it very clear he doesn’t like to put a constricting label on himself. However, his lycanthropy curse makes it incredibly hard for him to find love, or even bother looking for it. He wants to explore his sexuality, and try to find someone but is afraid of his friends rejection because he likes blokes just as much as women and he’s afraid if he ever did find love they wouldn’t be able to accept that he’s a monster, and he doesn’t blame them.
Remus doesn’t believe he deserves his friends. The one aspect that never fails to remind him he’s a burden is the fact that James, Sirius and Peter all learned to become Animagi to help him. He knows it’s dangerous, even for older and fully skilled wizards, let alone his teenage friends. He knows that his curse is no longer his burden to carry and it kills him inside. They deserve better than him.
Lily Evans is his closest friend. Yes, that is including the marauders, surprisingly. Him and Lily became close a few years prior. While James and Sirius liked to pick fun at Lily, (never in a rude manner), Remus preferred to not pay much attention to her at all. Remus didn’t pay attention to most and therefor it didn’t cause any issues between himself and the redhead. However, one day while he was studying by himself on the grounds Lily found him. It was odd, but for some reason she stopped to talk to him. They sat outside for what seemed like hours, just speaking. Lily always had a million things to talk about and Remus didn’t mind listening. They developed a close friendship over the years. You can often find them walking arm in arm or quietly leaning against each other in times of distress. He loves her to his core, and the fact that she doesn’t know his secret allows him the pleasure in knowing she doesn’t have to deal with his monstrous problems
