Fred Weasley was the most daring and dominant among the twins of Arthur Weasley and Molly Weasley. He was the older twin brother and best friend to George Weasley.
He attended Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry and was sorted into Gryffindor House. Both he and his twin brother were popular students, known for their sense of humour, pranks, and were also Beaters for the Gryffindor Quidditch team. In their seventh year, they joined Dumbledore’s Army, an organisation taught and led by Harry Potter.
A born prankster and inventor, Fred left Hogwarts shortly prior to graduation to become a successful entrepreneur, alongside his twin brother, George, and opened the joke shop Weasleys’ Wizard Wheezes in Diagon Alley. Fred was also a member of the Order of the Phoenix and was a commentator for Potterwatch during the height of the Second Wizarding War. Fred participated in the Battle of Hogwarts, defending the castle’s passageways with his twin. While fighting alongside his brother, Percy, he was killed in an explosion. George named the first of his children after him.
