Gryffindor
Coat of arms : A golden lion on a red backgroundFeatures : Courage, Boldness, Fortitude
The Gryffindors are generally the big favorites of the public and for good reason: it is the house of Harry, Ron and Hermione, a trio of protagonists of the saga and little darlings of the director of Hogwarts, Albus Dumbledore (himself Gryffindor! ). For the record, the name of the house is a tribute to Godric Gryffrondor, one of the four founders of the school. It is said that he was the greatest duelist of his time and that he was even the first owner of the famous magic sorting hat, this headgear which determines your house on the first day of school according to your personality. By reputation, the house is intended for the most chivalrous students who have a certain courage.
Congratulations and welcome! I am the prefect Percy Weasley and I am very happy to welcome you to GRYFFINDOR. The Gryffindor crest is the lion. She is the bravest of all creatures. Our colors are red and gold. And our common room is at the top of Gryffindor tower.
Gryffindor is quite simply the best house in Hogwarts! Only the boldest and strongest are sent here, including Albus Dumbledore! Yes, the greatest wizard of our time, Dumbledore, was also a Gryffindor! And if that’s not enough for you, I really don’t know what is! — Excerpt from Welcome to Gryffindor via Pottermore, Harry Potter Wiki
Slytherin
Coat of arms : A snake on a green backgroundFeatures : Mischief, Skill, Determination
They don’t have a particularly good reputation, but we easily recognize a certain charisma. The Slytherins take their name from Salazar Slytherin, former friend of Godric whose paths parted due to a strong misunderstanding. The man was indeed a supremacist wizard who believed that only pureblood wizards should be allowed into Hogwarts, which inevitably caused some disagreements with his more tolerant colleagues. He therefore ends up leaving school without looking back, leaving behind him a terrible creation: the Chamber of Secrets. If Godric Gryffindor was known for his qualities as a duelist, Slytherin also had an invaluable quality: the ability to speak to snakes in Parseltongue, a gift associated with dark magic. He was also particularly cunning and ambitious, characteristics shared by most Slytherins like a certain Draco Malfoy.
Congratulations and welcome! I’m Head Girl Gemma Farley and I’m very happy to welcome you to SLYTHERIN. The emblem of Slytherin is the serpent. She is the wisest of all creatures. Our colors are green and silver. Our common room is behind a secret door, deep in the dungeons. As you will soon discover, its windows overlook the depths of Hogwarts Lake. We often see, through the windows, a giant squid swimming languidly. Other creatures, even more fascinating, also make a small appearance from time to time. We appreciate that our lair looks like a mysterious shipwreck lying at the bottom of the ocean. Excerpt from Welcome to Slytherin message via Pottermore, Harry Potter Wiki
Ravenclaw
Coat of arms : An eagle on a blue backgroundFeatures : Wisdom, Discernment, Erudition, Curiosity
They are often presented as the most erudite of the castle, Ravenclaw students are generally as motivated in their studies as they are studious. The name of the house pays homage to Rowena Ravenclaw, a brilliant witch upset by a family tragedy: her daughter Helena, who now haunts Hogwarts with her ghost, stole her precious tiara out of jealousy before disappearing from her life. Particularly creative, it was she who came up with the idea of constantly changing the layout of the castle. Among the known students of Ravenclaw, we can cite Cho Chang, Luna Lovegood or even Mimi Geignarde.
Moreover, for the anecdote, the name of Hogwarts (Hogwarts in VF) would come from a dream of Rowena Ravenclaw in which a pig (hog) covered with warts (warts) took her to the edge of a cliff.
Congratulations and welcome! I am prefect Robert Hilliard and I am very happy to welcome you to RAVENGLADE. The Ravenclaw emblem is the eagle. Of all the birds, it is the one that flies the highest. Our colors are blue and bronze. Our common room is at the top of Ravenclaw Tower. Its door has an enchanted knocker. It is a round room whose gothic windows overlook the grounds of Hogwarts. From up there you can see the lake, the Forbidden Forest, the Quidditch pitch and the botanical garden. No other house has such an exceptional view. Without wanting to brag, I must admit that Ravenclaw brings together the most intelligent wizards and witches of the school. Our founder, Rowena Ravenclaw, valued education above all else. We are proud to follow his fine example. Excerpt from Welcome to Ravenclaw via Pottermore, Harry Potter Wiki
Hufflepuff
Coat of arms : A badger on a yellow backgroundFeatures : Balance, Loyalty, Constancy, Patience
House of the late Cedric Diggory, Hufflepuffs are known to be especially loyal and straight in their boots. They are also recognized as having an attraction to nature and its virtues.. If some consider them less intelligent than most, it’s just that they are actually less competitive and much more humble. Hufflepuff takes its name from Helga Hufflepuff, a witch very gifted with spells related to food. It is also the source of many delicious recipes served at banquets.
Congratulations and welcome! I’m Prefect Gabriel Truman and I’m very happy to welcome you to HUFFLEPUFF. The badger is the Hufflepuff emblem. It is an animal that people often tend to underestimate, because it leads a peaceful life as long as it is not attacked. But at the slightest provocation, he becomes a formidable opponent who can scare animals much larger than him, including wolves. Our colors are yellow and black. Our common room is in the first basement. It is accessed through the hallway that leads to the Hogwarts kitchens.
