| Minister Kingsley Shacklebolt |
Before meeting Shacklebolt and Bones, The Grandma has offered a new Cambridge Key English Test A2 Example to The Stones.
Minister Kingsley Shacklebolt is a British pure-blood wizard in the employment of the Ministry of Magic.
He worked for the Ministry as an Auror, but joined the reconstituted Order of the Phoenix after being convinced of the return of Lord Voldemort.
Working undercover within the Ministry, he fed the Order with information, and misdirected the Ministry's efforts to locate Sirius Black by saying he was spotted in Tibet.
He fought in the Battle of the Department of Mysteries, and was later assigned to guard the Muggle Prime Minister, posing as his secretary.

When he was eventually officially confirmed in the position of Minister for Magic, he, along with Harry Potter, Ron Weasley, and Hermione Granger, worked hard to change the Ministry. They eventually succeeded in greatly reducing the corruption and pure-blood bias within the organisation.
Not much has been revealed about Kingsley's life before becoming an Auror. All that is known is that he was born into a pure-blood wizarding family and that he attended Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in his youth, although it is unknown into which House he was sorted.
He also apparently met with James Potter, as he saw the physical similarities between him and his son Harry.
Kingsley worked as a high-ranking Auror in the Ministry of Magic, and was assigned to lead the task force for the recapture of the Azkaban-escapee Sirius Black. When rumour of Lord Voldemort's return was denied by the Ministry, Kingsley was convinced of his return, and subsequently joined the Order of the Phoenix.

Along with Nymphadora Tonks, he worked as a covert operative, keeping the Order supplied with information. In addition, since joining the reactivated Order, Kingsley was informed of Black's innocence as a fellow member of the Order, and so he sidetracked the investigation by feeding the Ministry disinformation that indicated Black was hiding in Tibet.
After Harry Potter was attacked by two dementors Kingsley volunteered to be a member of the Advance Guard.
The Advance Guard were to escort Harry to the Order's Headquarters at 12 Grimmauld Place in London.

Kingsley was part of the Order task force sent to escort Harry to safety.
Acting as a protector, he rode a Thestral with Hermione Granger disguised as Harry by way of the Polyjuice Potion.
During the subsequent battle, Kingsley and Hermione were chased by five Death Eaters, injuring two and possibly killing one.

Kingsley was a tall black wizard and was described as broad shouldered. He was bald, and wore a single gold hoop earring. He had a slow, deep voice that was said to be reassuring.
In contrast with many other wizards, he was capable of dressing properly as a Muggle, to the point that the Muggle Prime Minister could not tell the difference.
Kingsley was calm and controlled, with a deep reassuring voice and commanding stature. Unlike many wizards, Kingsley mastered the knack of dressing and acting like a Muggle, leading to his assignment to guard the Muggle Prime Minister during the Second Wizarding War.
Both shackle and bolt refer to means of imprisonment. Specifically, a shacklebolt is the threaded pin of a shackle allowing the linking of multiple chains and metal cables. This also hints at the reason his patronus is a lynx.
His first name, Kingsley suggests royalty, note the King in it. This may be the reason that in Potterwatch he was known as Royal.

I'm not getting rid of Kingsley Shacklebolt,
if that's what you're suggesting! He's highly efficient,
gets through twice the work of the rest of them.

British Prime Minister
Madam Amelia Susan Bones is a British witch and celebrated Head of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement.
orn to Mr. and Mrs Bones, she likely attended Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry before joining the Ministry of Magic.
Madam Bones, having a seat on the Wizengamot, presided over the disciplinary hearing of Harry Potter. She was fair, unlike Cornelius Fudge, the prosecutor, and was astounded and impressed by Harry's ability to conjure a corporeal Patronus.

Little is known about Amelia's early life, other than that the First Wizarding War took a heavy toll on her family; her father and mother were killed by Lord Voldemort; Amelia's brother Edgar, a member of the Order of the Phoenix, his wife, and their children were murdered by Death Eaters.
She had at least one surviving sibling, however, as she and Edgar shared a niece, Susan, who was born to another brother.
As she was a partial namesake of her niece, it is likely that she was close to that brother. She attended Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry during her Teenage Years.

Amelia Bones was a serious, but fair person who did not overlook obvious points. She gave Harry Potter and Mrs Figg a chance to testify, and was also one to be impressed with remarkable feats, given her admiration of Harry's production of a corporeal Patronus at such a young age.
Unbiased and firm, she did not cave into Cornelius Fudge's intimidation and corrupt authority, and even openly expressed her friendliness with Arthur Weasley, a known supporter of Albus Dumbledore and Harry Potter, even in Fudge's presence, whereas many other coworkers avoided him out of fear of the Minister threatening to fire anyone in league with them.
Amelia is a female given name. It is a variant of Amalia, derived from the Germanic word amal meaning work and means industrious and fertile. The diminutive is usually Amy, Lia, Mia, Mel, or Mimi.
Etymologists believe that the name Amelia/Amalia is unrelated to the Latin gens name Aemilia, which was translated into English as Emily. Equivalents of Aemilia/Emily in romance languages do sound similar to Amelia (Italian Emilia) but have a different origin from this Germanic name.

A terrible loss. Amelia Bones was a great witch.
