Calling all Gryffindors!!!
Gryffindor is one of the four Houses of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry and was founded by Godric Gryffindor. Gryffindor instructed the Sorting Hat to choose students possessing characteristics he most valued, such as courage, chivalry, and determination, to be sorted into his house. The emblematic animal is a lion, and its colors are scarlet and gold. Sir Nicholas de Mimsy-Porpington, also known as "Nearly Headless Nick" is the House ghost.
Known Gryffindors

Headmaster of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry and founder of the Order of the Phoenix, Dumbledore was widely considered to be one of the greatest wizards of all time.

Minerva McGonagall
The Head of Gryffindor house during Harry Potter’s time at Hogwarts, McGonagall was highly intelligent, exceptionally talented, and an accomplished Animagus. This Transfiguration teacher and deputy Headmistress of Hogwarts was as formidable as Gryffindor’s house animal.
Harry James Potter
The Chosen One, the Boy Who Lived and perhaps the bravest Gryffindor the house has ever seen. Need we say more?
Ronald Bilious Weasley
Everyone’s favorite right-hand man, where would Harry have been without Ron? He may have started out in the shadow of his best friend but he would go on to face many of his fears, showing true leadership in times of need and becoming a credit to his house.
Hermione Jean Granger
Impossibly intelligent, quick-thinking and considerate of others, Hermione was far and away one of the most brilliant witches of her time. Her immense bravery and intellect were crucial in the defeat of Voldemort.
Ginevra Molly Weasley
The youngest Weasley sibling, Ginny was a lot stronger than she looked, Proving excellent use of hexes and jinxes. She was Gryffindor's star chaser and quite a good seeker as well. She rarely needed saved and was more powerful than most of her older brothers.
