Narcissa Malfoy
Harry's father. Though James was a self-important and pompous young person, he grew up to be a beloved resistance fighter and sacrificed himself trying to protect Lily and baby Harry from Voldemort. His last living best friend (who isn't working for Voldemort, as Wormtail is), Lupin, offers Harry insight into the kind of loyal and trusting person that James was. Harry uses the Resurrection Stone to conjure James and Lily to walk him to his sacrifice to Voldemort.
