There may be many years between Hogwarts Legacy and the start of the Harry Potter story, but there are plenty of ways for players to make connections between those two eras. This includes trying to recreate some iconic characters from the beloved books and movies. Ron Weasley is one such character that fans are surely looking to mold their character after. While players can meet one of Ron's distant relatives in the form of one of the school's professors in the game, they can also bring the red-headed firecracker to life, albeit not exactly perfectly.

Hogwarts Legacy: Best Clothing Mods You Should Try

Hogwarts Legacy's clothing mods allow players to revamp how their characters look, whether they prefer a whimsical or a dark aesthetic.

Players can get the look of their character rather close, and can certainly get his House and spell style correct. It really isn't that complicated either, as fans already know so much about the character: he's a fiercely loyal friend (Goblet of Fire excluded) and, despite his occasional mistakes , always does his best to do right by his friends and family. He's known for his bright red hair, his freckles, and his messy, but powerful enough, abilities with magic. To bring this character to the popular game, players only need to follow this guide right here.

Hogwarts Legacy - Ron Build

The first part of creating Ron Weasley in Hogwarts Legacy is to nail down the iconic look of the character. This can be done with the following values in the character creation section at the beginning of the game:

  • Face shape: 7th option
  • Skin Color: 1st option
  • Glasses: None
  • Hair Color: Orange/Red (18th option)
  • Hairstyle: 15th option
  • Complexion: 3rd option
  • Freckles and Moles: 2nd option
  • Scars and Markings: 1st option
  • Eye Color: 10th option
  • Eyebrow Color: 18th option
  • Eyebrow Shape: 4th option
  • Tone: Voice 1
  • Pitch: Highest option

Finally, choose the Wizard dormitory to round out the entire character creation.When it comes time to choose the House for the character, players obviously need to select Gryffindor, where all the Weasleys have been, including Ron.

In terms of actually roleplaying, Ron wasn't ever known for his effectiveness with spells like Expelliarmus or Accio. He was always more of a loose cannon, so players should stick with the more bombastic spells like Bombarda, Incendio, and Confringo.

Also, the only Unforgivable Curse that Ron would use is the Imperius Curse on occasion. He would never use Crucio or Avada Kedavra; that's not what a Gryffindor does.
