First appearance in the story: This (compartment) only had one occupant, a man sitting fast asleep next to the window... The stranger was wearing an extremely shabby set of wizard's robes which looked ill and exhausted. Though he seemed quite young, his light brown hair was flecked with grey.
"Who'd you reckon he is?" Ron hissed...
"Professor R.J. Lupin," whispered Hermione at once.
