At some point, James would also steal the Marauder's Map from his father's desk drawer, while he was not looking, to have fun with it at Hogwarts.[6]

PersonalityEdit
James is much like his uncle, Ron, for his poor timing and knack for interfering with other people's love lives. He also seems to have inherited his sense of humour and love for mischief from his two uncles, Fred and George, and having a fondness for teasing his siblings and making mischief.
