Rose Granger-Weasley / Young Hermione
Harry Potter
Male - 30s
Now a father to James, Albus, and Lily, Harry works as Head of Magical Law Enforcement at the Ministry of Magic and is married to Ginny Weasley.
Harry struggles with the demands of parenting while still fighting against the forces of Dark Magic, memories from his childhood and the pain and death he endured growing up and facing Voldemort, continue to haunt his thoughts.
Despite this, Harry is now a grown man devoted to his family, wife, and friends, and as ever, the importance of good over evil.
Hermione Granger
Female - 30s
Hermione is now the Minister for Magic and is a strong leader, not afraid to stand up and confront issues her predecessors tried to ignore. She is married to Ron and has two children, a daughter Rose and a son Hugo, whom she adores.
Her close friendship to Harry remains as they work together as a team at the Ministry. Her fond frustrations with her husband Ron remind us of the many squabbles they’ve had at school, but their devotion to each other is clear.
Ron Weasley
Male - 30s
A loving father and husband, Ron has two children that he looks after alongside running his own joke shop, Weasley’s Wizard Wheezes.
Affable as ever, Ron is a stalwart friend to Harry and a reliable and affectionate husband to Hermione. As in his youth, Ron is determined and quick to offer help to support Harry and defend the Wizarding World.
Ginny Potter
Female - 30s
Married to Harry, Ginny works as a sports editor for the Daily Prophet. She stands alongside Harry as a supportive wife but also has to show great patience as he struggles with his relationship with his son Albus, while still grappling with his past.
She understands Harry’s troubled sleep and dreams and knows when he is not being totally open with her.
Draco Malfoy
Male - 30s
Just as devoted to his family as Harry Potter, Draco Malfoy is utterly committed to protecting his son Scorpius while battling against rumors about him and his parentage.
Draco continues to mistrust Harry Potter and his many successes and openly attacks the decisions of the Ministry of Magic to try and get them to do what he thinks best. Always immaculately dressed, Draco reveals that for all his appearances of anger, his actions are just as rooted in love and family as the other characters.
Albus Potter
Male - Teenager
The middle child of Harry Potter, Albus struggles with the weight of his father’s reputation and past. He doesn’t fit into Hogwarts in the way he thinks is expected of him. Surprised to find himself placed in Slytherin, he forms a close friendship with Scorpius Malfoy, Draco’s son.
Determined to prove himself, Albus is quick-witted and brave though perhaps shows some of the recklessness his father occasionally showed in his youth, trying to solve problems without fully grasping the dangers and consequences.
Much of the trouble with his father stems from Albus wanting to be his own man while also wanting to know his father more closely.
Scorpius Malfoy
Male - Teenager
Extremely bright, clever and well-read, Scorpius can’t wait to begin life at Hogwarts and all that will entail, but he is well-aware of the rumors that surround his parentage.
Close to his mother and keen to impress his father, he has a great deal to endure but reveals himself to be a devoted friend, brave wizard, and extremely optimistic and enthusiastic young man.
Scorpius is a character who never gives up and isn’t afraid to speak his mind when necessary.
Rose Granger-Weasley
Female - Teenager
Ambitious, clever, and hard-working, Rose shares many of her attributes with her mother, Hermione and her father, Ron. She is eager to get to Hogwarts and begin her life there.
Rose tries to remain friends with her cousin Albus, and despite drifting apart during the course of the action, it is clear she is likely to remain part of Albus’s life, and perhaps Scorpius’s, forever.
