PERSONALITY

History

1960: Remus Lupin was born along with his twin. He does remind her he was born first and therefore despite being twins, he is the older brother.  Their mother died in childbirth.

1965: Lyall Lupin, his father, tried to get Fenrir Greyback arrested, though claiming not to be a werewolf. He said that werewolves were "soulless, evil, deserving nothing but death", and well, that pissed off the werewolf in the room. After escaping from the ministry, Greyback attacked Remus while he was sleeping in his room. This was before his birthday, so around the end of February. Lyall managed to save Remus and Rose's life, but not stop the attack from turning Remus into a werewolf.

February 1971: Remus ended up running away, the only regret being that he left his sister behind.  He joined a pack, but it wasn't long before Lyall found him and sent the whole pack to Azkaban, well except for him.  Ever since then Lyall has convinced Remus to find the packs and 'join' them, only for his father to capture them - he doesn't want to do this, but his father insists and if he doesn't he's afraid Lyall will use Rose instead.  

June 1971: Lyall was approached by Albus Dumbledore offering Remus and rose a spot at the school, and after much deliberation, they were allowed to go. Lyall refused for awhile but Dumbledore convinced him. Remus watched this from the other side of a door without his parents realizing it until Dumbledore mentioned him at the end of the conversation.

September 1971: Remus was sorted into Gryffindor and started his monthly travels to the whomping willow so he could transform during the full moon. He met Sirius, Peter, and James this year and quickly became friends with them though he didn't join in on their pranks very often. His sister was a Ravenclaw and it was disconcerting he'd be without his sister at times.

1972: His friends figured out based on his monthly journeys what he was. He thought he would be abandoned, but instead they accepted him for what he was and even started learning how to become animagi for him. He felt he was in their debt for their kindness given he hated what he was - after all his father still hated werewolves and he was one.

August 1994: Rose found out about his father using him, and angrily she tried to convince McGonagall to let them stay the summer at Hogwarts, but unfortunately there was nothing she could do.

April 1975: The Marauders perfected their animagi forms, and they earned themselves their nicknames. It was during this year Remus felt immense pride in his friends, and didn't quite feel as alone. It was also this year that they created the Marauder's Map.
