Now Rios:

Which leads me to believe that there just might be a Werewolf 
cure for Lupin yet.  Lockhart was no doubt exaggerating when he 
claimed he performed the "homomorphus charm" and cured a Werewolf.

However, while he does take credit for other people's work, as Steve 
says, his so-called magical feats are not made up. They've just been 
performed by others -- not HIM.

In his books, he writes of his exploits fighting various types of 
magical creatures, but in reality, he has simply interviewed the 
wizards who really dealt with the creatures. Lockhart then performed 
Memory Charms on the wizards so they would forget.

So, it's possible the "homomorphus charm" does exist -- but he 
has actually never performed it himself.  So, all we need is for 
someone to find out how it works, and cure Lupin!  Wouldn't it be 
loverly?
