![]() Their difference of opinions was so strong that it destroyed their friendship. ![]() Helga Hufflepuff and Rowena Ravenclaw sided with Godric Gryffindor, and so Muggle-born students were allowed to attend Hogwarts. Slytherin (unbeknownst to the other Founders) created the Chamber of Secrets and left Hogwarts soon after, never to return.īeyond Hogwarts, it appears that Godric Gryffindor was also a champion for Muggle-born wizards. When Godric Gryffindor was named "Wizard of the Month" by J. Rowling in July 2007, she wrote that he was " an enlightened fighter against Muggle-discrimination". The Sorting Hat has decided the fates of Hogwarts students for a thousand years. Technically, the Hat has not sorted students since Hogwarts' inception it was only after the school had already been founded that the Founders realized that they wouldn't be around to sort students forever. The hat uses legilimency, the magical act of interpreting a person's mind, the same power that Queenie Goldstein uses in Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them (2016). While all four Founders, Helga Hufflepuff, Rowena Ravenclaw, Salazar Slytherin, and Godric Gryffindor, had a hand in the hat's creation, its original owner was Godric Gryffindor. In fact, before the hat was used to sort wizards and witches into Houses, it was a normal hat that sat on Godric Gryffindor's head.The Sorting Hat's song also identifies Gryffindor as the person who came up with the idea of creating a Sorting Hat. Ron tells Harry in Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone that everyone from his family is in Gryffindor. However, it's unclear if Ron is talking about his immediate family or longer. It is true that Arthur Weasley met his wife Molly Weasley (née Prewett) when they were both members of Gryffindor House at Hogwarts. It is also true that all of their seven children - Bill, Charlie, Percy, Fred, George, Ron, and Ginny - were sorted into Gryffindor. Rose Granger-Weasley, Ron's daughter, is also later sorted into Gryffindor. But, beyond that, we don't know if the Weasley relatives were sorted into Gryffindor or if Ron is simply being hyperbolic. After all, he is worried that he won't get into Gryffindor. and the Sorting Hat does not seem to be genetically based in its decision-making. ![]() Ron has at least one close relative that was not in Gryffindor. The only one of Ron's grandparents is confirmed to have been sorted into a specific Hogwarts House: Cedrella Black was a member of Slytherin House. The Potters, too, have a reputation of being in Gryffindor. Albus Severus Potter was the first Potter to be sorted into Slytherin, much to the chagrin of his father.
