Stella says:

Because of the reference to him looking like a lion, I'm going to 
have to say she's most likely referring to the color of his iris.  
Cat's eyes often have this golden tint.  That's what I'm picturing 
anyway, and I also think it would be hard to look both "keen" and 
jaundiced at the same time, but that's just my opinion.  As to who 
this mystery character may be...well, if the Godric Gryffindor 
connection is too obvious it very well may be this new McCraggan (was 
that the name?) character, since she's already mentioned him anyway.  
This would make sense because she's really not giving anything away 
except a physical description.  
 
However, the wording seems rather positive to me, so I think it's 
going to be someone on the "GOOD" side. Time will tell!

Regards,
Stella, who also loves Lupin and doesn't think it's him in the 
description
