'''''Lavender Brown''''' is a Gryffindor girl in [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Harry Potter|Harry]]'s year. She is a very good friend of [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Parvati Patil|Parvati Patil]], and favours [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Sybill Trelawney|Professor Trelawney]]'s [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/Divination|Divination]] lessons above all others.

In her relationship with Ron, she seems to be more attached to an image of him than to him; she has no idea what he would actually like for Christmas, for instance. This relationship, which is intensely physical, is also marked by jealousy on Lavender's part. It seems that she is in love with the idea of having a boyfriend who is a prefect, rather than with Ron himself.

 

 

Lavender is very much a minor character, playing at best a supporting role in the story; it is to the author's credit that she is so well written as a character. There is little need, if any, in the story line, to have her express so much interest in Divination, or to so clearly have become best friends with Parvati Patil. In the overall scheme of things, the entire affair between Ron and Lavender is unnecessary to the main plot line of the story. The author, however, has chosen to write the story against a fully believable backdrop of what happens to teenagers as they mature, and of course the sort of romantic entanglements we see with Ron and Lavender are a large part of that maturation. The additional details allow the reader to mentally flesh out the character, so that while Lavender may be dismissed to some extent as minimally important to the story, the reader still cares about her as a person, and is concerned about her survival and possible injuries in the final battle.

Hermione comments at one point that Ron has "the emotional depth of a teaspoon." It is perhaps for this reason that Lavender is portrayed, at least in her relationship with Ron, to be almost equally shallow. Perhaps this is a necessary stage in Ron's maturation, as it causes him to recognize the value of Hermione's more mature outlook. It is possible that, just as the author felt there had to be a major event, such as a [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Magic/Troll|mountain troll]], to knock Hermione out of her "grind" character [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Books/Philosopher's Stone/Chapter 10|in the first book]], equally Lavender is the major relationship event that awakens some emotional awareness in Ron.

# Is Lavender Brown now a werewolf? It seemed that she was bitten by Fenrir Greyback near the end of book seven, and he may have been transformed into his werewolf form at the time.
