Remus Lupin

Remus Lupin is a half-blood, born, according to the series, to wizard Lyall Lupin and his Muggle wife Hope Howell, on 10 March 1960. He was bitten by the vicious werewolf Fenrir Greyback when he was a small child, and became infected with lycanthropy; the condition being incurable, he was doomed to live his life as a werewolf. Lupin and his parents feared he would be unable to attend Hogwarts, but headmaster Albus Dumbledore allowed him to enroll—provided certain protective measures were taken.
