Lucius Malfoy
One of James Potter's childhood friends and formerly a Defense Against the Dark Arts professor at Hogwarts. He's an active member of the Order of the Phoenix and is one of Harry's beloved mentors. Lupin is also a werewolf, which means that he struggles to find and keep work, both because of social prejudice against werewolves and legislation that feeds on that prejudice and makes it hard for werewolves to find jobs. Though Lupin is only in his thirties, he looks quite old and thin. When Harry discovers that his own father was a bully, Lupin does his best to comfort Harry by accepting responsibility for not putting a stop to James's bullying and by assuring Harry that James was a fundamentally good person regardless.

"I know her by reputation and I'm sure she's no Death Eater—"
"She's foul enough to be one," said Harry darkly and Ron and Hermione nodded vigorously in agreement.
"Yes, but the world isn't split into good people and Death Eaters," said Sirius with a wry smile. "I know she's a nasty piece of work, though—you should hear Remus talk about her."
"Does Lupin know her?" asked Harry quickly, remembering Umbridge's comments about dangerous half-breeds during her first lesson.
"No," said Sirius, "but she drafted a bit of anti-werewolf legislation two years ago that makes it almost impossible for him to get a job."
