The Way I Look!
Celebrity:: Benjamin McKenzie
Height:: 6’0”
Weight:: 150+
Hair Color:: light brown, sometime appears dirty-blond
Eye Color:: brown
Clothing Style::
Out of uniform, Remus is very casual, but not so much as most guys who just throw on whatever is lying on the floor closest to them. He cannot afford to because he has to remember to hide his scars, and Remus is a fairly neat person anyway. His wardrobe consists of button-up, collared shirts, usually in light colors, like blue, sweaters, jeans and kakis, and a few nice jackets for when the weather gets cooler. Sometimes in the summer, you might catch him in a band/quittich team shirt. He knows that he sticks out as a preppy nerd compared to his friends, but Remus was taught to dress in a respectable manner, and he does not think it too hard to put a bit more effort into his outfits.
When in uniform, Remus starts the day with shirttail tucked and tie tight, but everything comes undone toward the middle of the day. Over the course of his education at Hogwarts, he has developed these habits from James and Sirius, and honestly does not care as much as he did when he was a first year. Besides, he feels the need to focus on his schoolwork than his clothing.
Basic Appearance::
Remus has shaggy, light brown hair that always seems messy like his clothes, though not purposely untidy like James’. He is fit, but only because his condition does not allow him to be anything less than that. He also has a typical Caucasian skin tone, and deep, brown eyes that reflect his being wise past his age. In most ways, he looks like any other teenaged male walking down the halls of Hogwarts.
One of the characteristics that set him apart from others is his smile. Inherited from his mother, a beautiful, youthful muggle, he often wears it; both loved to laugh. His father always said their smiles could light up a morgue.
The other is not as attractive. Remus bears deep scars from his nights in the Shrieking Shack. He tries to cover them, and is mostly successful, excepting the one slash crossing his left cheek. To conceal his lycanthropy, the nurse hastily heals most of the injuries to his face.

The Way I Act!
Likes::
+ music (many types, esp. big band/swing music)
+ watching quittch
+ chocolate
+ butterbeer
+ reading a good book (esp. by the fire in the common room)
+ learning new spells
+ history
+ rain
+ snow
+ hanging around with the Marauders
Dislikes::
- dark magic
- Fenrir Greyback and other werewolves in league with him
- seeing someone else in pain (physically, mentally, emotionally) esp. if he is the cause
- Divination (what’s the point?)
- watching James pick on Severus (though Severus regularly reminds him about his condition)
Strengths::
♥ charm
♥ intelligence
♥ grades
♥ maturity level
♥ kind manner
♥ level headedness
♥ mental and emotional strength
♥ being wise beyond his age
Weaknesses::
» girls with intelligence, a sense of humor, and/or an adventurous streak in them
» people crying (esp. girls)
» his mother
» Divination
» low self-esteem level
Flaws::
* his condition (at least he sees it as one)
* low self-esteem
* locking his emotions up when he feels sad, angry, etc. and pretending he’s perfectly happy (however, it has kept him sane so far…)
* J.K. Rowling stated, "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."
Habits::
&& chewing on pencils
&& chewing on his bottom lip
&& chewing gum so he won’t do either
Goals::
^ graduate
^ find himself a place in the wizarding world as a werewolf
Overall Personality:: 2-3 Paragraphs
Remus is a laid-back kind of guy. A little excitement always entertains him, but he is not a troublemaker, though he hangs around with James and Sirius. Actually, he is the guy that will watch someone else start trouble and laugh at their act and then laugh harder when they are caught. However, if asked he can be a cunning prankster, given his intelligence level.
Remus never hesitates to help someone in need, and he never expects the favor to be repaid. Some would say he is too self-sacrifing. He is a loyal friend and an honest young man. Once you become his friend, you stay that way even past death. He is a very good listener and secret keeper because he has the ability to put himself in someone else’s shoes, a skill most teenagers do not have. Remus would never steel, cheat, or lie…Ok, maybe he would. However, it would only be for a just cause. His teachers respect his work ethic, and he makes excellent grades. He is known school wide for being intelligent and wise. In fact, James and Sirius regularly ask him to help them with homework (he has stopped doing it for them).
However, no matter how honest and friendly Remus is, he does have a private side…Only the Marauders, Severus, his parents, the staff of Hogwarts and Dumbledore know he is a werewolf. He shies away from closeness to anyone else, which means girlfriends are not on his priority list. He feels he is a danger to the public, and should keep relationships to a minimum.
I'm From Here!
Birthplace:: somewhere in England (not sure)
Parents:: Mr. (wizard) & Mrs. (muggle) Lupin (could not find names)
Siblings:: none
Children:: Adults Only
Aunts, Uncles, Cousins Ect.:: Only If They Are Important
History::
After his father insulted Fenrir Greyback, Remus was bitten and infected with lycanthropy. His parents became apprehensive about sending him to Hogwarts, but Dumbledore insisted he had every right to the same education as other young witches and wizards.
On the Hogwarts express, Remus met the Marauders, and their friendship had flourished ever since. When they found out about Remus’ condition in their second year, he feared they would desert him. However, they stayed loyal to their friend and by their fifth year, they had become animagi in order to be able to visit Remus in the Shrieking Shack, the shanty house Dumbledore constructed to hide Remus in every full moon. It was named so because the people in Hogsmeade could hear the ruckus Remus created as he clawed himself because there were no humans to claw at. Werewolves are only a danger to humans, so the Marauders were safe keeping him company in their animagi forms, which helped the noise.
Severus began tormenting Remus when he deduced from Remus’ absences from school once every month that he was a werewolf. He even tried to enter the shrieking shack to see for himself, but James stopped him. Yet Remus does not partake in James’ bullying of Severus, though he does not stop it. He feels no anger toward Severus.

Other Stuff
RP Sample:: (This if from another HP site. Sorry it’s not much…)
Teagan stumbled down a hill towards the banks of the lake. This always happened at the worst of times; tomorrow was the day of an important test. How could she concentrate after a night like this? Teagan suddenly tripped over a large blurry object and fell flat on her face. She pulled her knees to her forehead and covered her face with her arms. Tears of frustration and pain ran down her face. She sobbed angrily as fuzzy memories appeared in her mind…
Her aunt was screaming at someone…Her mother. It was the last time they saw her. Teagan’s mother had informed her of her “condition”. Of course, the pompous muggle became furious. “I refuse to let that thing infect my children!” “She won’t! Listen-!” “No!” Teagan felt a hand grab hers. It was her cousin. She was a tiny thing, about three years younger than Teagan.
“What’s wrong?” she asked with an expression of confusion and fear.
“I think you’re going home now…” Teagan said to her.
“Am I coming’ back to see you?”
Teagan felt a great sadness well up in her heart. “No…Not this time…”
The small girl stared up at her with wide teary eyes and began weeping. “Why not?”
Before Teagan could answer, her aunt came and swept the girl into her arms. The she began screaming and kicking furiously. Teagan ran after her, but her mother stopped her. The girl screamed all the way to the car. Teagan could only weep into her mothers shoulder. The screaming echoed in her mind. Then everything faded into darkness…
A terrible beast now stood where Teagan was just lying. Its brown fur reflected the moonlight; its keen blue eyes scanned the surroundings. Standing at about 6 ft. tall it sniffed the air for the scent of prey. The forest must have held many excellent catches. Suddenly a wolf howled in the distance. The creature turned its long snout toward the Dark Forest. The howl came again. Falling on all fours, she began galloping towards the misty trees. A long night lay ahead.
