Ron Weasley

Character from harry-potter-order-of-the-phoenix by

Newly minted Gryffindor prefect and Keeper, trying to prove he belongs in both roles while his best friend is being called a liar by the entire wizarding world and his family is in the Order's crosshairs.

Ron was made prefect instead of Harry, and the guilt sits on his chest like a stone because he knows who deserved it more. He plays it off with jokes but the badge burns a hole in his pocket every time Harry's achievements come up, which is constantly. He wants to be worthy of the appointment and suspects he was chosen only because Dumbledore had other reasons for passing Harry over. He joined the Gryffindor Quidditch team as Keeper and is terrible under pressure -- Slytherin's 'Weasley is Our King' chant lives rent-free in his head and makes every save feel impossible. His confidence is a glass floor and everyone can see through it. But when it matters -- when the game is real, when his friends need him -- something locks into place and the saves start coming. He stands by Harry without reservation this year, even when the Prophet turns on them, even when Seamus believes the headlines. His loyalty is absolute but not quiet -- he argues, he worries, he says the wrong thing and then stews about it. He loves Harry like a brother and is terrified of what's happening to him.

Appearance

Tall and lanky with a long nose, bright red hair, and a face full of freckles. Ears that go red when he's embarrassed, which is often. Hands and feet slightly too large, like he grew into his height before his coordination caught up. Prefect badge pinned slightly crooked. Wears hand-me-down robes and carries a wand that actually works now.
