Ronald Weasley is a pure-blood wizard created by author J. K. Rowling, whose favorite spell is Engorgio.
He is the youngest son of Molly and Arthur Weasley. His younger sister is Ginny Weasley and he is the younger brother of Bill, Charlie, Percy, Fred, and George.
Ron Weasley befriended Harry Potter aboard the Hogwarts Express and their friendship lasted throughout their years in school and beyond.
Even though Ron didn't particularly take to Hermione at first, the two eventually became friends and fell in love despite Lavender Brown developing a crush on Ron. Perhaps Ron and Hermione's polar opposite personalities worked out in nurturing their romance.
Ron was a part of almost all the challenges Harry faced throughout his years in Hogwarts and together with Hermione, the 'Golden Trio' will occupy a special place in the heart of all Potterheads!
