Hey! So technically this isn't the story, but I decided that since I was going to a fic on Harry Potter as an old man telling his life story (slightly AU from canon) to his grandchildren and great-grandchildren, you'd have to know who these people are. I actually really got into creating this family tree and dynamic. I think I'll do a series of one-shots with this universe after I write the story. (I'm estimating this to be a 10-20 chapter fic roughly). I really enjoyed thinking of what Harry would be like as an old man, what his grandchildren would be like, etc. Hope you do too! Enjoy! Disclaimer: I do not own Harry Potter. I do own everyone that's not Harry Potter, Ginny Weasley, Teddy Lupin, Lily Luna Potter, James Sirius Potter, or Albus Severus Potter. They're all mine! *insert evil laugh*

Hanna Finnigan nee Lupin (44)
House:Ravenclaw
Job: Spell developer for the Department of Mysteries (20 years, promoted to head of the department), Head of the DOM (6 years, current)
Husband: Angus Finnigan (44)
Husband's House: Gryffindor
Husband's Job: Waiter at the Leaky Cauldron (4 years, promoted to barkeeper), Barkeeper at the Leaky Cauldron (4 years, bought out the owner), and Proprietor of the Leaky Cauldron (18 years, current)
Children:
May Finnigan (14) [Gryffindor]
Colum Finnigan (7)
Bio: Hanna is the first-born Lupin child, coming out exactly ten minutes before her brother, starting the life-long joke that Hanna is always early. Determined and focused, Hanna was probably one of the most studious Ravenclaws the house has ever seen and particularly talented in charms. Pretty but not as beautiful as her Veela relatives, it is a surprise to everyone when she starts dating Angus Finnigan, the school's bad boy and player. They date for three years but break up at graduation because she doesn't believe he's serious about the future. Seven years later, Hanna runs into him working as a barkeeper at the Leaky Cauldron. The two slowly started to reconnect, and Angus bought the Leaky Cauldron with his savings to prove he was serious about the future. The couple was married a year later. May, their first child, was born three years after that. May is more like her father was in school, very popular but unsure of what she wants to do with her future. Colum, born when May was seven, is exactly like his mother, already knowing he wanted to be a politician like his Uncle Hade. Hanna's work as a spell developer was focused primarily around blocking the Unforgivables. Inspired by her grandfather, she made significant strides in the field that lead to her promotion to head of the DOM. Hanna is fairly close to her twin, supporting many of his political views, but often fights with her younger sister Louise, who she views as irresponsible and flighty. Of course, May adores her aunt and wants to be like her much to Hanna's chagrin.
Hadrian Lupin (44)
House: Slytherin
Job: Intern at the Ministry of Magic (3 years, promoted to assistant of the Minister), Assistant to the Minister (5 years, promoted to courtroom scribe), Courtroom scribe (5 years, promoted to Public Relations),Public Relations (10 years, promoted to undersecretary of the Minister),Undersecretary to the Minister (4 years, current)
Wife: Priscilla Lupin nee Nott (38)
Wife's House: Slytherin
Children: Cygnus Lupin (15) [Slytherin]
Bio: Hadrian Lupin, known to most as Hade, was born ten minutes after his sister, a fact he's been trying to make up for ever since. Sorted into Slytherin and always aware of the stigma his father's heritage, Hade was very ambitious in his goals. Landing an internship at the Ministry, he worked hard to rise up the ranks, his eventual goal being the Minister job. A notorious workaholic, it was a shock to his family when he meets and falls in love with Priscilla Nott at a Ministry event. Only three weeks after meeting, the two got married. Nine months later, their son Cygnus was born. Hade gets along with both his sisters, which often doesn't work in his favor since they fight constantly. He is particularly fond of his nephew, Colum, and doesn't mind the boy's constant questions considering his own son's disinterest in politics. Cygnus would rather be a curse breaker like his grandmother much to both Priscilla and Hade's displeasure.
Louise Lupin (34)
House: Hufflepuff
Job: Model (5 years, quit after eating disorder struggle), Actress (2 years, quit after show was canceled), Waitress at the Leaky Cauldron (3 years, quit after fight with sister), Fashion designer (7 years, current)
Bio: Louise Lupin has always been known as the accidental Lupin, born ten years after her siblings. Unlike the twins, she has never been sure of what she should do with her life. After graduating Hogwarts a Hufflepuff, Louise became a model. She was fairly successful but had to quit due to a severe eating disorder. She did a short stint as an actress on a sitcom until it was canceled and worked as a waitress at the Leaky Cauldron for three years. Louise gets along just fine with her brother-in-law but often clashed in with her (in her opinion) over-bearing and judgmental sister, resulting in her quitting. After floundering for a bit, she decided to go into fashion, where she is currently very successful. Louise is also one of the few grandchildren who are very dedicated to going to see Aunt Hermione, putting her on very good terms with her grandfather. She is also very close to her niece and gives her advice about almost everything, a fact that drives her sister nuts.
James's Children
Ashleigh Wood nee Potter (36)
House: Gryffindor
Job: Transfiguration Professor at Hogwarts (11 years, current)
Husband: Martin Wood (38)
Husband's House: Gryffindor
Husband's Job: Keeper for Puddlemore United (15 years, quit after first daughter was born), Coach of Puddlemore United (4 years, current)
Children:
Gwen Wood (6)
Adrian Wood (3)
Unborn child- 2 months
Bio: Ashleigh is the first-born daughter of James Potter. Rambunctious and mischievous as a child, she inherited a love of pranks from her dad, an innate kindness from her mother, and a ferocious fascination with Transfiguration no one could find a source of. Sorted into Gryffindor (the first grandchild to do so, much to James's eternal pleasure), she was an average student in everything but her beloved subject and was often in detention for testing pranks. Upon graduation, she worked to obtain her Transfiguration mastery and apprenticed under the current Hogwarts Transfiguration professor. When she gained her mastery, the teaching spot was offered to her. She takes it. The only thing that wasn't in place was her love life. She met Martin Wood at a Hogwarts event honoring past Gryffindor Quidditch alumni. It was love at first sight, and they married only six months later. Their daughter followed two years later, and their soon three years later. Ashleigh is currently two months pregnant with her third child, a fact that everyone in the family teased her about considering both her cousin and her cousin's wife were pregnant four and six months respectively. Her grandfather liked to tease he wouldn't have to worry about the family name dying out. Like her father and husband, Ashleigh is a Quidditch fanatic, attending her husband's matches whenever possible. Much to her chagrin, Gwen shows little interest in the game as of yet.
Belinda Nott nee Potter (31)
House: Slytherin
Husband: Dimitri Nott (41)
Husband's House: None [Attended Dumstrang]
Husband's Job: CEO of Nimbus and Firebolt Broom companies (21 years, current)
Children:
Alexandria Potter (16) {result of brief relationship when her mother was a teenager. She has never met her father.} [Ravenclaw]
Liam Nott (1)
Bio: Belinda is the second daughter of James and regarded as the most cunning. Sorted into Slytherin, she attracted people to her like flies. Though not the prettiest Potter girl, there was an aura of mystery and intrigue that had boys lining up at the door. Belinda was very popular and dated many influential boys, a habit she'd carry into adulthood. At 16, she stupidly fell in love with a boy who was already betrothed and gave up her virginity. Much to the embarrassment of her parents, she became pregnant and was forced to quit school. Not on speaking terms with them, she stayed with her grandparents, having always been a favorite of her grandfather since they shared the same eyes. She had a daughter, Alexandra, but being too young and selfish to raise her, she took off, leaving her daughter to be raised by Harry and Ginny. Her parents eventually get involved as well, but it is Harry and Ginny Alexandra relies on. Belinda went from man to man, city to city, until news of her grandfather's deteriorating health brought her home. At a gathering at her cousin Hade's house, she met Dimitri Nott, the brother of Hade's wife. He was nothing like her typical man except for his wealth. He was sturdy, reliable, and never treats her like she could be bought. She found herself charmed and in love from the first time since Alexandra's father and they were married a little under a year later. Their son Liam was born a year later. Belinda is currently trying to take of her son and repair her relationship with her daughter, who is living with her grandparents after Grampie's health took a turn for the worst but still very much dependent on her Grampie's advice and comfort.
Colette Potter (27)
House: Ravenclaw
Job: Model (3 years, quit to become a hair stylist), Hair stylist (7 years, current)
Bio: Often regarded as the prettiest Potter girl, Colette was sorted into Ravenclaw, though the things she liked to research weren't really academic. She loved to experiment with hair and makeup, becoming the unofficial stylist of her family. Prodded by her family, she pursued modeling for a few years after school but quit to pursue her true passion: styling. Happily single, Colette is a devoted aunt and cousin who is always willing to help with fashion and makeup choices. Ironically, she is also the family matchmaker, knowing many attractive single men (and women for her cousins) from her modeling days. She is constantly trying to set up her youngest sister and her cousins Aster and Calla.
Dana Chilikovnee Potter (26)
House: Hufflepuff
Job: Healer at St. Mungo's (5 years, current)
Husband: Sergei Chilikov (26)
Husband's House: None [Attended Dumstrang]
Husband's Job: Dueling professor at Dumstrang (3 years, current)
Bio: Dana is the peacemaker of her sisters, the one who stops any fights and heals any bruises, physical or mental. Sorted into Hufflepuff, she was always the instinctive nurturing, surprising no one when she decided to be a healer. She always healed Ashleigh when her pranks didn't go as planned, comforted Belinda when she got pregnant and was there for her in the delivery room, let Colette try any new style on her, and gave Ebony advice on what to do with her life. After finishing training, she spent a year working in a hospital in Bulgaria, where she meets her husband Sergei Chilikov. He was a dueling champion getting treatment for curse backlash. Sergei was instantly charmed by her and pleaded for weeks to get a date with Dana. She eventually agreed, and when she went back home he wrote her long love letters. When he proposed, she said yes, and he took a job teaching dueling at his alma mater. They are currently very happy and eager to start a family. Dana is already a wonderful aunt to all her nieces and nephews and a particularly protective godmother to Alexandria so there is not much of rush to have her own children. She is also the one who oversees all of her grandfather's hospital visits and double checks every diagnosis and treatment he gets.
Ebony Potter (21)
House: Hufflepuff
Bio: As the youngest, Ebony has never known what to do with her life. As a Metamorphous, no one ever seemed to want her for her, even the guys she dated. Sorted into Hufflepuff, Ebony remained below the radar, not liking to draw extra attention to her since she already got a lot due to her talent and her last name. She did love history, however, and was one of the few students to receive a NEWT in History of Magic. She was particularly fascinated with the First and Second Great Wars, which were both ended by her grandfather. She then started to get accounts of it from her whole family as well as going back to all the primary sources and records of the time. Ebony loves to spend hours sitting with her grandfather and Aunt Luna, discussing what Hogwarts was like when they went and all the war stuff. She has a lot of information gathered but is unsure of what to do with it or how to arrangement. She also knows she does not have the right story and eagerly awaits the missing piece. Her best friend is her cousin Laura, who is a year younger than her.
Albus's Children
Aster Potter (34)
House: Gryffindor
Job: Auror (15 years, current)
Bio: The eldest of Albus's children, Aster is practically a carbon copy of his dad and grandfather before him minus the famous emerald eyes. Sorted into Gryffindor, Aster was particularly talented in Defense, and the family was not surprised when he started Auror training. After completing said training, Aster became the only Potter since his grandfather to be an Auror. He takes advantage of this fact when his single sisters, cousins, and nieces have dates over or when he feels like bragging. Taking very much after his Uncle James and what Grampie tells him Sirius Black was like; Aster is a notorious playboy, not settling down with any woman for long. He is uninterested in his cousin Colette's attempts to set him up with girls she knows.
Calla Potter (30)
House: Ravenclaw
Job:Herbologist (10 years, current)
Bio: Ever since she was a little girl, Calla Potter has been fascinated with Herbology. Close to her father's Uncle Neville growing up, she spent all her time at Hogwarts in Ravenclaw studying plants. It was a common joke in the family (as it was with her Gramma's brother Charlie and his dragons) that she would not get married unless it was to a vicious man-eating plant. Her favorite childhood memory was of her Grampie diligently caring for the garden by hand, no magic, and she has learned for that. Her studies have actually thrived without overusing magic on her plants. Despite her somewhat out of touch personality, Calla is devoted to her family and adores her nieces and nephews.
Ginger Smith nee Potter (30)
House: Hufflepuff
Husband: Marius Smith (30)
Husband's House: Slytherin
Husband's Job: Researcher in the DOM (11 years, current)
Children:
Phoenix Smith (5)
Leo Smith (4)
Cassiopeia Smith (3)
Corvus Smith (2)
Unborn child- 4 months
Bio: Jokingly nicknamed "Mrs. Weasley" by her Grampie, Ginger is most like the late Weasley matriarch. A phenomenal cook, Ginger often visited the kitchens at school and asked for lessons from the house elves, which they gladly gave. Though she enjoyed her time in Hufflepuff immensely, none of the subjects at school captivated her. Cooking was her true passion. Working in several restaurants after graduation, she gains some acclaim. At one of those restaurants, she meets Marius Smith, a researcher in the Department of Mysteries. They date for three years before getting married. After two years, Ginger has their first child, Phoenix. Similar to how her father tried to name all his kids after plants, roots, and flowers, Ginger aimed to name hers all after constellations. After getting pregnant with Phoenix, Ginger quits her job, wanting to devote time to motherhood and writing her own cookbook. Of course, there isn't much time for that considering Ginger has been pregnant every year since she's had Phoenix much to her Grampie's amusement and chagrin. Currently four months pregnant with her fifth child, Marius had told her they're done having children much to her disappointment. Still, something about this one feels off to Ginger. She's only four months but looks like she's due any day.
Ren Potter (28)
House: Slytherin
Job: Seeker for Falmouth Falcons (11 years, current)
Wife: Melissa Potter nee Grey (28)
Wife's House: Ravenclaw
Children:
Thomas Potter (3)
Virginia Potter (2)
Hollis Potter (1)
Unborn child- 6 month
Bio: As a Potter, Ren has always known Quidditch (amongst other things) is in his blood. Like his father, he was sorted into Slytherin but like his grandfather was a star-seeker. Recruited to play for the Falmouth Falcons out of school, Ren made the Potter name famous for yet another reason. At 22, he met a journalist (ironically not covering sports) at a match. Melissa Grey wanted to be a serious investigative journalist, and she was not impressed with Ren. Intrigued by the first woman to ever rebuke him, he pursued her. After a year of wooing, she agreed to go out with him. At 24, the pair was married. A year later, Melissa had their first child, Thomas (a favorite of his Grampie and sharing the famous emerald eyes). Much to her chagrin, she is unable to go back to work immediately as she had planned, being pregnant again with Virginia the next year and Hollis the year after that. Now six months pregnant with twins, Melissa has given up all hope of going back to her exciting (and somewhat dangerous) job as an undercover investigative reporter. What she doesn't know was that was sort of Ren's plan, hating his wife's dangerous job. Ren is close to his Grampie, always has been, and he visits often with Thomas. Melissa also enjoys seeing his grandfather but for a different reason. Though not able to do the work she loves, Melissa still does digging into history and investigates what she considers to be anomalies in the Great War history. Unlike Ebony, she isn't so much interested in the stories, a fact that sometimes grates on Harry's nerves. Ren is aware of the tension between his wife and his Grampie and tries to play peacemaker but often takes his Grampie's side, thinking his wife is being too hard on an old tired man.
Lily's Children
Lindsay Turner nee Potter (deceased)
House: Gryffindor
Husband: Zeke Turner (deceased)
Husband's House: Gryffindor
Husband's Job: Warder (8 years)
Children:
Barthos Turner (8)
Jenna Turner (5)
Bio: Sorted into Gryffindor, Lindsay was popular but infinitely lonely. Being successful at everything meant many people hated her, and she didn't know how to handle it until she met quiet Gryffindor Zeke Turner. She fell in love with him much to the surprise of many of her friends, and the couple got married straight out of Hogwarts, Lindsay already pregnant. Zeke started his warder training while Lindsay set up their home, but their world turned upside down when she suffered a painful miscarriage. The loss took a while for her to heal from, but two years later she and Zeke were blessed with a healthy baby boy and a beautiful little girl 3 years after that. Still, Lindsay never quite recovered from losing that first baby, and she was crazily overprotective of her children. The night she and her husband died, the children were at their aunt's house alone for the first time. The fire was due to a faulty Floo. There was no hope to save either her or Zeke.
Laura Scamander (23)
House: Gryffindor
Job: Swimsuit model (5 years, current)
Bio: Laura has always been in the shadow of her older sister Lindsay. Both sorted into Gryffindor at school, Lindsay was always better at everything: school, relationships, etc. Still, she never hated Lindsay because she was Laura's best friend beside her cousin Ebony. When Lindsay lost her first child, Laura was the one who sat with her as she sobbed, and she was completely devastated when her sister and her husband died in a fire. Stunning beautiful, Laura has been a swimsuit model since she left Hogwarts. She often is Ebony's advice giver, prodding her cousin to date and enjoy life. She frequently visits her niece and nephew and delights in frustrating her mother by helping Grampie disobey his health rules.
