Lupin was and is in the Order of the Pheonix and he's the only 
good Marauder left. >>>

Sarah:
Having Lupin be the only good Marauder left just adds to the tragic 
nature of his character.  But really, he's in the same situation 
that he was in at the start of PoA: believing two of his best 
friends are dead and one turned into a traitor.  Then he finds out 
that the traitor really wasn't a traitor, and one of his "dead" 
friends was alive and the real traitor.  Only to have the friend 
snatched away two short years later, and be put back at square one.  
Alone and isolated from the wizarding world because of what he is. 
And the Marauders were the first friends that Lupin ever had, and he 
never thought that he could have friends because of who he is.  
Despite being in the Order, Lupin is still very isolated from the 
rest of the wizarding world.  In that respect, he's just like Harry: 
Harry never had a parent, and then in his third year, he gets the 
next best thing.  His father's best friend.  Then two years later, 
its taken from him.   Harry parallels this: he's isolated because of 
the prophecy and because of his fame.  Harry, like Lupin, has few 
close friends.  Perhaps this will bring Harry and Lupin closer 
together in more of a father-son type relationship.  I for one would 
love to see that.  They've shared the same loses, that of James and 
Sirius, because of Wormtail.
