~Gryffindor?~ You MUST know about Gryffindor. I mean, where have you been? No? Still don't know what it is. Oh well, I'll tell you. But, really, you should know... Ok, then At Witchcraft and Wizardry Boarding school, Hogwarts, there are four houses, and they are... Gryffindor Ravenclaw Hufflepuff Slytherin. And we, of course, are talking about Gryffindor ^_^ A really long time ago, there lived four wizards of renown. There was Godric Gryffindor, Rowena Ravenclaw, Helga Hufflepuff , Salazar Slytherin. They had a wish, a hope, a DREAM, they made a plan, to educate young witches and wizards, so Hogwarts school began!Each of these four founders Formed their own house, for each Did value different virtues, in the one they had to teach. Gryffindor, the bravest were,Prized far beyond the rest, Ravenclaw, the cleverest would always be the best! Hufflepuff, hard workers were worthy of admission, and Slytherin are power houngry Loved those of great ambition! (Parts taken from The Sorting Hat song in Goblet of Fire) So.... yeah. Now you know what Gryffindor is, here is some info on the house... The head of Gryffindor house is Professor Minerva McGonagall, who is also the Transfiguration teacher. McGonagall is strict, but can sometimes be nice , she may not seem it, but she is very caring, and is also the one who gave Harry his place as Seeker on the Gryffindor Quidditch team ^_^ The Colours of Gryffindor are the brave scarlet and gold. Gold is a very royal colour, and goes good with a deep red. Their mascot is a cunning lion, lions are nice animals, in my opinion, and are afraid of nothing, so a lion is a good creature to be mascot of Gryffindor house. It was founded by Godric Gryffindor, and he's the nice one ^_~ Every Hogwarts house has their own ghost, and the ghost of Gryffindor is Nearly Headless Nick (Sir Nicholas deMimsy-Porpington) ^^; You will find the entrance to Gryffindor house on the seventh floor! Gryffindor house is "Guarded" by a portrait of a fat lady in a silk pink dress. Tell her the password, and she will swing open to let you step foot into the Gryffindor common room. But beware, she usually leaves her portrait frame to visit her friend Violet! Oh yeah, we've all experienced that! The Gryffindor common room is full of squashy armchairs , a roaring and warming fireplace, and tables.There are also two staircase, and they lead to the girl's dormitories and the boy's dormitories, Quidditch team. The captain of Gryffindor Quidditch team is the gorgeous Oliver Wood. *quoted by Shandy* Wood also is the Keeper for the Gryffindor team, there is real cutie Harry Potter*this one is quoted by me!*, who is the Seeker, Fred and George Weasley, who are the Beaters,Chasers are Angelina Johnson, Alicia Spinnet and Katie Bell. |
