Donaghan Tremlett (b. 1972) was a Muggle-born wizard who played bass for the popular wizarding band The Weird Sisters.

Biography[]

Early life[]

Donaghan Tremlett was born in 1972 to Muggle parents.[1] He began attending Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in 1983 or 1984.[2]

Later life[]

Donaghan played bass for the popular wizarding band The Weird Sisters. On Christmas Day in 1994, the band attended the Yule Ball at Hogwarts,[3] where they played classic hits like "Magic Works" and "This Is The Night," as well as a new song titled "Do The Hippogriff."[4]

Donaghan married a woman in September 1995. The wedding was mentioned in the Daily Prophet.[5]

In June 1997, Donaghan attended the funeral of Albus Dumbledore, and was one of several familiar people Harry Potter noticed among the crowd.[6]

After the Ministry of Magic was taken over by Lord Voldemort in September 1997, Donaghan, as a Muggle-born, presumably faced charges before the Muggle-Born Registration Commission. He may have been sent to Azkaban, or else gone into hiding, like many others of his heritage.

Physical appearance[]

Donaghan was described as "hairy"[6] and, like all members of the Weird Sisters, wore "artfully torn" black robes when onstage.[3]
