Appearance: Fred and George were identical twins who looked so similar even their mother finds it hard to tell them apart. They spend virtually the whole time together and it is very unusual to see one without the other.
Fred and George are similar to all the Weasley children, with heads of flaming-red hair and abundant freckles. They are shorter and stockier build, like their brother Charlie, rather than a tall, thin build like his brothers Bill, Percy and Ron[6]. However, Fred was taller than Harry Potter, and thus was still above average height.

Personality:
Fred Weasley is the more outspoken, daring, and sarcastic of the twins. Fred concocted the scheme of trying to fool Albus Dumbledore's Age Line to get into the Triwizard Tournament, though it was unsuccessful, and was in favour of blackmailing Ludo Bagman after he defaulted on a bet, while George had reservations.
Fred tends to be somewhat funnier than George, and takes the ringleader role in their pranks, but is also crueller in his humour or in dealing with those he dislikes. Fred can be quite callous in dealing with the victims of his pranks, particularly his older brother Percy, but is more compassionate when he did not feel that the victim deserved it.
George is the quieter, gentler of the twins, and not as cruel as Fred, who takes on the role of ringleader, can sometimes be. George's sense of humour is not as biting, and he is inclined to make fun of himself on occasion as well. He also appears to be slightly more moral, as he is against blackmailing Ludo Bagman when the former Quidditch player defaults on a bet at the Quidditch World Cup.
George's prankster nature is enjoyed by nearly everyone in his family, aside from his brother Percy and his mother, who both consider jokes to be immature. However, his pranks targeted at Percy are usually good-natured, and the only thing that got hurt was Percy's pride.
Both Fred and George are renowned for their senses of humour; they are able to make people laugh and relax even in very trying times. Neither Fred nor George take school very seriously, but they are both talented wizards, and demonstrated their ingenuity in their inventions and their business sense in running a highly lucrative shop. They are also staunchly loyal to their loved ones and very brave, having been sorted into Gryffindor and unafraid to stand up against what they thought was wrong, whether it was Dolores Umbridge's tyranny at Hogwarts or Death Eaters.
Mother: Molly Weasley (née Prewett), 45, House Wife, Pure-Blood
Molly Weasley is often described as the only one Fred and George are afraid of, and was often unhappy with the twins lack of seriousness and commitment to their learning. She was unhappy with both their earning of only three O.W.L.s and desire to own a joke shop.
Father: Arthur Weasley, 45, Head of the Misuse of Muggle Artifacts Office , Pure-Blood
Arthur Weasley was more laid back than his wife. While not overly supportive of the twins wrongdoing, he seemed to encourage the trying of new things. Mr Weasley was excited when informed of their adventure rescuing Harry Potter from the Dursleys and only pretended to be strict.
Siblings: Bill Weasley, 24, Curse Breaker for Gringotts Bank, Pure-Blood
Like their younger siblings, Fred and George tend to look up to their older brothers Bill and Charlie.
Siblings: Charlie Weasley, 22, Dragonologist, Pure-Blood
Like their younger siblings, Fred and George tend to look up to their older brothers Bill and Charlie.
Siblings: Percy Weasley, 19, Junior Assistant to the Minister for Magic, Pure-Blood
The Twins delighted in teasing Percy, who is closer to their age and rather stuffy. They were however furious with Percy when he fell out with the family over their father’s support of Albus Dumbledore instead of the Ministry.
Siblings: Ron Weasley, 15, Student, Pure-Blood
George and Fred enjoy teasing their only younger brother, Ron. Ron’s phobia of spiders derives from a prank the twins played on him when he was young. They also teased him over things such as his embarrassing crush on Fleur Delacour.
Siblings: Ginny Weasley, 14, Student, Pure-Blood
The Twins are quite close to their sister Ginny, who is similar to the twins in temperament, and sometimes joined them in teasing others, especially Ron. They are protective of her, as well, and disapprove of her love life.
Birth place: UK
Overall history: Fred and George Weasley were born to Arthur and Molly Weasley on April 1, 1978; appropriately enough, April Fool's Day. They were raised at their family home of the Burrow, near Ottery St. Catchpole in Devon, England. In addition to having a twin brother, they had three older brothers, Bill, Charlie and Percy, and younger siblings Ron and Ginny. The Weasley family was poor, but loving.
Fred and George enjoyed making mischief from a young age, and were quite a handful for their parents. It was not uncommon for explosions to be heard coming from the bedroom the two shared. They also greatly enjoyed teasing their brothers Percy and Ron.
Some of the stunts they pulled as children include setting a Dungbomb off under their great-aunt Muriel's chair during a Christmas dinner, turning their younger brother Ron's teddy bear into a giant spider after Ron accidentally broke Fred's toy broomstick, giving Ron an Acid Pop which burnt a hole in his tongue, and nearly tricking Ron into taking an Unbreakable Vow.
The Twins started Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in 1989 and were sorted into Gryffindor house just like their older brothers and parents. They made fast friends with fellow Gryffindors Lee Jordan, Angelina Johnson, Alicia Spinnet, and Oliver Wood, and became well-known for their senses of humour. During their first year at Hogwarts, Fred and George swiped the Marauder's Map from Argus Filch's office, which further aided in their mischief.
In their second year, Fred and George became Beaters for the Gryffindor Quidditch team. They both used Cleansweep Five broomsticks and were so skilled at Quidditch that they were both described as being like "human Bludgers".
The Twins also became friends with Harry Potter in his third year, when Harry became friends with his younger brother Ron and the Quidditch team's Seeker. Fred, George and the other players believed that the addition of Harry would strengthen their chances at winning the Quidditch Cup. Around the Christmas holidays, Fred and George got in trouble for bewitching several snowballs to follow Professor Quirrell around and hit him in the back of the head. They stayed in the castle for the holidays along with their brothers and Harry, all of whom received jumpers from Mrs. Weasley. The ones she sent to Fred and George had their initials on them, prompting them to call themselves "Gred and Forge". The twins also dragged Percy away from his fellow Prefects, insisting that Christmas was time for family, and stole his Prefect badge, much to his irritation
In the summer of 1992, Fred, George, and Ron rescued Harry from his relatives' home, picking the lock on his window and flying him to the Burrow in their father's Ford Anglia. The twins soon began their fourth year at Hogwarts, and took to teasing their younger sister Ginny as she began her first year. They were trying to cheer her up, unaware that her emotional state was fragile due to the influence of Tom Riddle's Diary. When many students speculated that Harry was the Heir of Slytherin that year, neither Fred nor George took it seriously, making jokes about it to lighten Harry up. They were also outraged when Draco Malfoy called Hermione Granger a "filthy little Mudblood" after she implied that Malfoy had bought his way onto the Slytherin Quidditch team, unlike the Gryffindor players. Fred and George both lunged at Malfoy, only to be blocked by Marcus Flint. That year, they were also delighted to hear that Percy had a secret girlfriend because it was an opportunity to tease him.
In the summer of 1993, the Weasley family went to Egypt, where Fred and George attempted to push Percy into a pyramid, which their mother prevented and scolded them for. They thought their older brother was acting particularly pretentious because he had been appointed Head Boy, and repeatedly mocked him for it.
In their fifth year, Fred and George gave Harry the Marauder's Map, as they already knew it by heart and Harry needed it in order to sneak into Hogsmeade. They also tried to cheer him up after he fainted near the Dementors that were guarding the school that year due to Sirius Black escaping from Azkaban. Their attempt to cheer up Ron after his pet rat Scabbers went missing was not as successful, as Fred and George reminded him that Scabbers was boring. They also moved their joke shop to the disused bathroom on the sixth floor.
Fred and George began inventing magical prank items in the summer of 1994, starting with the Ton-Tongue Toffee, which Fred "dropped" near Harry's cousin Dudley Dursley in order to test it out. Fred and George also attended the Quidditch World Cup with his parents, siblings, Harry Potter, and Hermione Granger, and gambled all of their money on the outcome, which their father told them not to mention to their mother. When Ludo Bagman defaulted on his bet, Fred was furious, and suggested that it was "time to play dirty" like Bagman by informing the Ministry of Magic of his activities. George was against the idea, arguing that it was blackmail.
The twins began trying out and selling their products, such as Canary Creams, at Hogwarts as their sixth year began. That year, Hogwarts also hosted the Triwizard Tournament. Despite being underage, Fred and George wanted to put their names in the Goblet of Fire, and used an Ageing Potion in an attempt to fool the Age Line Spell, without success. When the Yule Ball was announced, Fred asked Angelina Johnson to attend with him, declaring it a "piece of cake" to ask a girl out. At the end of the school year, Fred and George were surprised and very grateful when Harry gave them the one thousand Galleons he won in the Triwizard Tournament in order for them to start their joke shop.
