Early life
Lily Evans was born on 30 January 1960. She had one elder sister named Petunia. She was raised in Cokeworth.
Marriage
In 1978 to 1979, Lily and James were married and Sirius was Best Man. In 1980, their first child, Harry Potter was born. James and Lily escaped Voldemort three times.
Death
In 1981, Voldemort heard that Harry could one day have a power to defeat him, and Lily and James had to go into hiding. Dumbledore suggested they use a Secret Keeper by enacting a Fidelius Charm, and he gave an offer to be their Secret Keeper. James declined because he wanted Sirius, who persuaded James to choose Peter because he was less likely to be suspected. Unfortunately Peter was a spy for Voldemort and he told him their location less than seven days later. James was killed first, and she stood in front of Harry when Voldemort found her. Because Snape had begged him to spare Lily, he gave her a chance to step aside. He called her silly for failing to do that, because she was instead begging for him to spare Harry and just take her. He began laughing at her, and she screamed when he killed her. Because Lily had powerfully loved Harry and gave her life to save him, an ancient force born of love had shielded Harry and caused a Killing Curse to bounce back at Voldemort instead. Her protection continued to live in and protect Harry for years. It was agony for Voldemort to even touch Harry because he marked by something so good.
Lily is a very beautiful woman who has dark red hair and bright, green eyes that Harry inherits.
