Timeline and Cast

[naiad8]

This is the current state of the timeline from DH and the cast mentioned in DH.  The timeline will grow as plot points are discussed, and the cast will grow larger (I'm purusing the lexicon at the moment for more Slytherins and younger folks in Gryffindor, Ravenclaw, etc)

I think the Creeveys are definitely Muggle-born, and it's probably a mistake, but it could be explained away if perhaps a friend from the DA got to them and helped them out with faking a family tree. I like to think that some of them (Neville, for example) were active during the summer.

If I recall correctly, Muggleborns only had to prove that they had a wizarding relative. If taken literally, the Creevy boys would be off the hook because they had each other. At least, that's how I read it at the time.

The Ministry Raid by the Trio happened September 2nd. I'm rereading the books for my own timeline for my 7th year fic, and the day Harry apparates back to Grimmauld Place is September 1st, and it's later in that conversation that he says "I think we should do it tomorrow".

I should imagine that is Cho showed up that Marietta Edgecombe can't have been far behind- I didn't get the feeling in canon that she went away from her ordeal on the side of the dark lord, even if the DA kinda screwed her over.
