[List of appearances]

Professor Lupin is a Harry Potter Minifigure introduced in 2004 and then redesigned in 2011.

Background

Remus Lupin was the Defence Against the Dark Arts teacher at Hogwarts in Harry Potter's third year. Unknown by Harry and the others until later, Lupin was a werewolf (having been bitten by sadistic werewolf Fenrir Greyback when he was very young, following a disagreement between Greyback and Remus's father). In the set 4756 Shrieking Shack, a werewolf head is included for him. In his youth, Lupin was best friends with Peter Pettigrew, Sirius Black and Harry's father, James Potter. The four called themselves the Marauders, and together they made the Marauders Map, which later falls into Harry's possesion. Lupin resigned as DADA teacher at the end of the school year, after Professor Snape "let slip" the nature of his condition. Lupin returns to the story in Harry Potter and the Order of the Pheonix, having joined the reconstituted Order Of The Pheonix, a secret society formed by Professor Dumbledore to fight Voldemort. He participated in the Battle Of The Department Of Mysteries, during which Sirius was killed, and was one of the few fighters that made it through without injury, ode to his duelling prowess. Lupin is seen again in Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, when he and his fiance and fellow Order member Nympadora Tonks help defend the Burrow from an attack by Bellatrix Lestrange and Fenrir Greyback. (this scene was only in the film adaption, not in the book) In the final book, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Lupin participates in the Battle Of Hogwarts, and is killed in combat. He is among 54 casualties of the battle on the good side, others including Tonks and Fred Weasley. Lupin did not die in vain however, as the Battle was won by the good side and Voldemort was killed and his army defeated. He and Tonks had had a son called Teddy, to whom Harry is his godfather.

Professor Lupin can be found in 5 sets.
