Professor Remus John[2] Lupin, O.M. (First Class), (10 March 1960 – 2 May 1998),
also known as Moony, was a half-blood wizard and the only son of Lyall and Hope
Lupin (née Howell). He was attacked by werewolf Fenrir Greyback when he was a child, a
result of Greyback's revenge against Lyall, leaving Remus afflicted with lycanthropy for
life.[5] He attended Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry from 1971 to 1978 and was
sorted into Gryffindor House. During his school years he was one of the Marauders, best
friends with Sirius Black, James Potter, and Peter Pettigrew. Together, they created the
Marauder's Map.
After Hogwarts, Remus and his friends joined the original Order of the Phoenix and
fought in the First Wizarding War. However, Pettigrew betrayed James and Lily Potter
to Lord Voldemort a week after he was made the couples' Secret Keeper. Thus Remus had
lost all of his closest friends in various ways by the end of the First Wizarding War.
The loss of his friends devastated him, though he and Sirius Black later rekindled their friendship.
