Nymphadora Tonks is a member of the Order of the Phoenix and an Auror of the Ministry of Magic. Her skills as a Metamorphmagus are invaluable to the Order, but her clumsiness lets her down at times.
Nymphadora is the daughter of Ted Tonks and Andromeda Tonks, niece of Bellatrix Lestrange and Narcissa Malfoy and second cousin, once removed of Sirius Black.
Nymphadora was a Hufflepuff while in Hogwarts. She stated in book 5 that she was not a prefect due to her inability to behave. But despite her lack of self-control, Nymphadora must have been a bright student to become an auror.
In the Summer of 1995 she managed to get the Dursleys away so the Order could escort Harry to the Order Headquarters. Her skills as a Metamorphmagus are also useful, but have only been mentioned in fun. She was involved in the fight at the Ministry during Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix and was seriously injured.
Later on her Patronus changed to a werewolf, which was later revealed to have happened due to her feelings towards Remus Lupin.
Just before Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows begins, she marries Remus Lupin and later that year, they have a child, Teddy Lupin. Approximately nine to twelve weeks after he is born, both parents are killed at the Battle of Hogwarts.Remus was killed by Dolohov and Tonks was killed by her aunt, Bellatrix Lestrange.
