| - Severus was Sorted into Ravenclaw, thankfully avoiding being sorted into Slytherin, as that would put a strain on his relationship with his best friend and true love, Lily Evans. While attending Hogwarts, it was noticed since his first day that the boy was a prodigy. During his first year, he was put in second year classes, and subsequently third year classes for some subjects. He then caught the attention of renowned Alchemist Nicolas Flamel, whom he spent the summer of 1974 under his tutelage. Severus' knowledge astounded Flamel, and in his memoirs he said "I couldn't help but ask myself: 'which one of us is the student and which is the teacher?'." Although Flamel had offered to take Severus out of school to study under him full-time, believing him to be above the challenges of Hogwarts' education, he refused, citing his wish to be with his friends and desire to graduate from Hogwarts. Once open war was declared upon Lord Voldemort's Death Eaters, Severus would stay true to his intention to remain neutral; not trusting Dumbledore and moving to France with Lily to avoid the war. Although Severus refused to get involved officially, he would indirectly aid his friends within the order with supplies and the like. However, as the Order began suffering multiple setbacks, Severus secretly began building support against Voldemort in other European countries, quietly amassing an army composed of wizards from multiple countries all dead-set on defeating the darkness that clouded Britain. After the Death Eater attack on the British Ministry and their successful coup of the government; the killing of Minister Millicent Bagnold and death of Albus Dumbledore, Severus decided to interfere in the war, although as a third faction allied to the Order of the Phoenix. Meeting Voldemort's Death Eaters at Hogwarts, a bloody hour-long battle ensued, followed by an armistice and subsequent one-on-one duel between Severus Snape and Lord Voldemort, culminating in the death of the latter and the surrender of the Death Eaters. After the end of the war, Severus had been declared a hero. In 1982; although already married to Lily, Severus hosted a formal wedding reception at a secret location attended by only friends and family; Remus Lupin as his best man. Severus and Lily already had a child, Sirius Donovan Snape, born while avoiding the war in Britain in 1980. He and Lily had an additional three children, daughters Chrysanthemum Amaryllis "Chrissie" (b. 1982), Marigold Celosia "Mary" (b. 1983), Rosemary Gardenia "Rose" Snape (b. 1984). Severus would then become Potions Master and Master Alchemist at Hogwarts under Headmistress Minerva McGonagall and later Deputy Headmaster and Head of Alchemy under Headmaster Aberforth Dumbledore. In 2017, at the age of 57, Snape was given the position of Headmaster of Hogwarts following the death of Aberforth Dumbledore, relinquishing his position as Professor of Alchemy in favour of his son, Sirius and position as Head of Ravenclaw house to Daniel Potter.
