Like I did with the moral alignments, I thought I would make a post about why and how I sort characters into Hogwarts Houses! There are also quizzes so you can figure it out for yourself as well. I go into detail about each House, what they represent, their background and what it means to be sorted into a certain House.ย
I hope you enjoy!
*just because Iโm talking about Harry Potter doesnโt mean I align with the transphobic views of J.K. Rowling. There is no room for transphobia on my page, and I support the trans and LGBTQIA+ community*
Figuring out which Hogwarts House you belong to has been around since the HP series came out. But I think thereโs more to it than simply choosing to be inย โthe brave houseโ orย โthe smart house.โ I think it reveals a lot about a person - or rather, a large aspect.ย
Here are a few tests for you to try, comment below what you got!
Test 1ย (theย โofficialโ Wizarding World quiz)
Test 2 (from IDRlabs, they have other personality quizzes as well!)
Test 3 (Hereโs the full Pottermore quiz. The 1st quiz will only have a few questions, so thatโs why I donโt think itโs fully accurate to take)
Test 4ย (A really good one from Quotev, the questions/answers arenโt obvious)
Gryffindor: Do what is right.
Hufflepuff: Do what is kind.ย
Ravenclaw:ย Do what is wise.
Slytherin: Do what is necessary.

Dwelled at Godricโs Hollow
Was an accomplished dueller
A fair man, he believed that any child who displayed magical abilities before their 11th birthday should be able to attend Hogwarts.
Gryffindor was the original owner of the Sorting Hat
Gryffindor also had a sword made, which would present itself to any true Gryffindor in a moment of need.
He was allegedly the best friend of Slytherin before he left Hogwarts
Godric will always be known for his accomplished skills in battle, and his fight against Muggle discrimination in the wizarding world.

โ You might belong in Hufflepuff, Where they are just and loyal. Those patient Hufflepuffs are true. And unafraid of toil.ย โ
๐ธ๐๐๐๐๐๐ก: Earth
๐น๐๐ข๐๐๐๐ ๐๐ฆ: โFrom valley broad,โย Helga Hufflepuff
A kind and warm woman who believed in loyalty, patience and hard-work as the best abilities a person can possess
Was a brilliant cook and had remarkable skills for preparing food. Her recipes are still used in Hogwarts to this day.
She brought the house-elves to Hogwarts
Owner of Hufflepuffโs Cup
She was the best friend of Rowena Ravenclaw
๐ธ๐ ๐ก๐๐๐๐๐ ๐ฉ๐๐ ๐ก๐๐๐๐ก๐ :
Loyalty
A need for justice. A lot of the Hufflepuff and Gryffindor traits are intertwined, but the difference is that Gryffindors donโt need to know a person to feel the need to look out for them.ย
Patientย
Believe in fairness and equality (Helga Hufflepuff was the only founder who believed everyone should have a fair chance in being taught)
Accepting
Thinks about other people more than themselves
Would do anything at all, for familyย

๐น๐๐ข๐๐๐๐ ๐๐ฆ: โFrom Glen,โ Rowena Ravenclaw
A sharp and intelligent woman
She wanted to make Hogwarts the finest wizarding school in the world, teaching only those with the highest intelligenceย
Rowena wore a diadem that was said to grant wisdom to the wearer, however,ย Rowenaโs own daughter grew jealous of her motherโs incredible intelligence. Helena Ravenclaw stole her motherโs diadem and ran away, a fact that Rowena kept hidden from her fellow founders even when she fell ill.
Wanting to see Helena before she died, Rowena sent a man to bring Helena home. Unfortunately, that man was the Bloody Baron, who was in love with Helena, and stabbed her in a rage when she refused to come home.
ย After Helena was tragically killed, legend tells us that Rowena Ravenclaw died of a broken heart.ย
She was the best friend of Helga Hufflepuff
๐ธ๐ ๐ก๐๐๐๐๐ ๐ฉ๐๐ ๐ก๐๐๐๐ก๐ :
Intelligence
Wisdom
Witty
Open-minded - donโt mix well with traditional, close-minded people. Ravenclaws see the big picture, they think about what things could be, rather than what things are.ย
They think outside of the box, they donโt like being confined by rules or traditions.ย
Uniqueย
Individualistic/Original
Actually very intuitive

๐น๐๐ข๐๐๐๐ ๐๐ฆ: โFrom Fenโ,ย Salazar Slytherin
He believed strongly that only wizards of pure bloodย
This belief caused a big rift between the founders, especially Gryffindor, which led to the depature of Salazarย
Despite his flaws, Salazar was a talented wizard, skilled in Legilemency and Parseltongue
Before he left, however, he created the Chamber of Secrets
๐ธ๐ ๐ก๐๐๐๐๐ ๐ฉ๐๐ ๐ก๐๐๐๐ก๐ :
Ambition
Determination
Cunning
Traditional
Strategic
Willing to do whatever it takes to achieve their goals; even using others for their gain.ย
Not all Slytherins use these traits for personal gain, however, because the founder was evil - doesnโt mean every Slytherin is.ย
Resourceful
Cleverness
Family means a lot to them
Desires respect
