James Potter

James came up with most of the ideas for pranks and practical jokes. He took charge and led his friends. He possessed incredible courage, bordering on recklessness. He fearlessly protected those he cared about. James was a brilliant wizard, but due to his late and long-awaited birth, he often displayed arrogance and show-offiness. He loved to show off, especially in front of Lily Evans and the rest of the school. For the comfort and safety of Remus Lupin, who was a werewolf, James and Sirius learned complex magic and became Animagi. As a schoolboy, James could be cruel. He often teased Severus Snape for fun, revealing his darker, boyish side.
