Welcome to Ravenclaw!
Ravenclaw is one of the four Houses of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Its founder was the medieval witch Rowena Ravenclaw. Members of this house are characterised by their wit, learning, and wisdom. The emblematic animal symbol is an eagle, and blue and bronze are its colours. The Head of Ravenclaw is Filius Flitwick, and the house ghost is the Grey Lady, otherwise known as the daughter of Rowena Ravenclaw, Helena Ravenclaw.
Known Ravenclaws
Gilderoy Lockhart
Though perhaps not the most shining example his house has to offer, Gilderoy Lockhart was of above-average intelligence and did achieve dizzying heights of fame in the wizarding world. However, vain and prone to baseless bragging, Lockhart’s chief achievement was showing his students how not to behave.
Luna Lovegood
Eternal believer in Blibbering Humdingers and Crumple-Horned Snorkacks, this enigmatic Ravenclaw is one of the best friends anyone could wish for. She thinks outside the box, a trait that does her house proud.
Garrick Ollivander
An exceptionally talented Ravenclaw wizard, Ollivander is widely regarded as the finest wandmaker the world has ever seen. His success lies in his ability to marry the right wand wood with the right core, and help match the wands to their ideal owners.
Filius Flitwick
Head of Ravenclaw house and Hogwarts Charms master, Filius Flitwick taught Hogwarts students the importance of enunciating their spells correctly – although Hermione helped. Exceedingly accomplished at Charms, Professor Flitwick was reportedly also a duelling champion in his youth.
