fan Harry Potter For decades, the series has been assigned to one of the four houses of Hogwarts and as the video game is about to release hogwarts heritage, they will finally be able to realize their dream of belonging to that house. So far, the game has introduced the ability to choose a preferred house, giving players access to public rooms and specific characters. So whether fans call themselves Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw or Slytherin, the new title will have a place for them.
While every house has its positive and negative qualities, no house has developed a reputation for being the “bad guy” like Slytherin. Of course, that doesn’t mean all Slytherins are evil, but their ambition can easily lead them in that direction. Harry Potter The series features a variety of Slytherin characters, from teachers and mothers to Ministry officials and Death Eaters. Each person is unique and their sly personality is perfectly summed up in their quotes in books and movies.

Bellatrix Lestrange
“How dare you call his name! Bastard!”
Bellatrix Lestrange was born into the Black family, one of the oldest and purest families in English wizarding. She married Lestranges, and they have a deeper history with the Dark Arts. Thus, Voldemort’s quest to return power to the “good things” of the wizarding world led Bellatrix to revere him as a god.
Bellatrix’s quote summarizes her reverence for her Master and her dislike of anyone with impure magical blood. At the end of the day, that was her only value, and she died for it.
black phineas
“Never try to understand students. They hate it. They’d rather be misinterpreted, feel sorry for themselves, feel sorry for themselves—”
Phineas Nigellus Black, Sirius’ great-grandfather, is often considered the least likable headmaster Hogwarts has ever seen. He is known for his harsh punishments, especially when dealing with students of Muggle descent.
Although Professor Black had died long before Harry entered Hogwarts, he was familiar with the portraits of the former Headmaster that hang in Grimmauld Square and in Dumbledore’s office. Phineas Nigellus isn’t useless and can help, but he has little interest in healthy student relationships.
Horace Slughorn
“Ten gallons a leaf for the right buyer!… Not that I’m familiar with any such alley trade, but I do hear rumours. Of course, my own concerns are entirely my own. is academic.”
Horace Slughorn is a prime example of an ambitious Slytherin with no interest in the Dark Arts. As other Slytherin students use their cunning to gain power over others, Professor Slughorn’s goal is simply to achieve a life of luxury and comfort.
To maintain his lavish lifestyle, Slughorn doesn’t hesitate to break the rules here and there, develop personal relationships with potential influential students, and engage in profitable ways of making money. may not be legal. While claiming to know nothing about how the black market works, Slughorn often proves that he can’t really do anything about it.
Narcissa Malfoy
“Is Draco still alive? Is he in the castle?”
Narcissa Malfoy becomes one of the more sympathetic villains, but not because she’s not evil. In contrast, Narcissa has never shown any remorse for the deaths of others, and seems to have no more sympathy than her utterly evil sister, Bellatrix.
However, Narcissa is very benevolent because although she doesn’t care about others, she will do anything for her son. She is a mother first, and if she must betray the world’s most powerful witch and save her enemies to ensure Draco’s survival, she won’t hesitate to do so.
Lucius Malfoy
“You must be Miss Granger. Yes, Draco told me all about you. And your parents. Muggles, right? Let me see. Red hair… stunned look… books shabby old books… you must be the Weasleys.”
Death Eaters are attracted to a number of reasons, but for Lucius Malfoy, it all comes down to status. The Malfoys were rich and powerful, and they all knew it. Lucius’ biggest ambitions were with the Ministry of Magic, and he saw Voldemort as the perfect way to drive “unworthy” wizarding families out of government.
However, since Lucius was ultimately only true to his own ambitions, he caused him to suffer his downfall. He repeatedly frustrates his mighty master while pursuing his own success, sending him into a never-recovered love affair.
Draco Malfoy
“Harry Potter is famous. You can’t walk into a bookstore without being on the front page.”
Draco Malfoy’s words prove that he is a true Slytherin with a weakness for the Dark Arts, but Harry Potter The film reveals that he is not a pure bad guy. At the end of the day, he is the product of his family legacy and learns from his father that nothing is more important than power.
Draco often pretends that his hatred means he’s capable of murder, but that’s never true. Instead, much of Draco’s hatred stemmed from jealousy. The famous Harry Potter has the kind of influence that Malfoy’s heir desperately craves, but he’s still angry ALRIGHT.
forge cornelius
“He’s not coming back.”
For previous issues Harry Potter, Minister of Magic Cornelius Fudge is cheerful and kind, even a little goofy. Harry is very fond of him, but when his Slytherin friend feels threatened, everything changes.
Like many other Slytherins, Fudge values strength. However, he’s more like Slughorn in that he prefers to enjoy his powers at ease rather than gore and chaos. So when his comfortable life is threatened, he responds with denial and anger, becoming a completely different man, prompting the Ministry to do some of the worst things to Harry.
Dolores Umbridge
“Deep down, you know you deserve to be punished.”
Dolores Umbridge may be the most despised Slytherin of all time, far surpassing Voldemort in the eyes of many fans. Her legitimately evil moral affiliation means that she is very sure that her actions are right, even if they cause harm to others.
Umbridge believes in harsh punishments because she feels that everyone, especially those less powerful than her (children and Muggles), are real bad guys and need to be controlled. She believes that all humans are evil and deserve to be punished because this is what she has observed in herself.
severus snape
“I spy for you, lie for you, put myself in mortal danger because of you. All to keep Lily Potter’s son safe. Now you tell me you’ve treated he’s like a pig to kill Raise-“
Severus Snape might be the most morally complicated Slytherin character Harry Potter. Growing up in an abusive Muggle environment, the idea of a wizarding rule appealed to him. Hatred and resentment make him the perfect dark wizard, but love stands in his way.
When Snape first joined Dumbledore, he didn’t care about other people’s lives. However, to repent of his role in Lily’s death, he chose to protect the child he hated. Harry Potter Gradually, over time, this selfless act turned him into someone who, though imperfect, truly values life.
Voldemort
“You’re an idiot, Harry Potter, and you’ll lose everything.”
Tom Riddle grew up in a heartless orphanage surrounded by Muggle kids and knew he was better than them even before he discovered he was a wizard. Discovering he had magical abilities only added to his sense of greatness, and going to Hogwarts showed him that even in the wizarding world, he is special.
However, Voldemort’s arrogance would disappoint him time and time again. Because of his lack of empathy, Voldemort could not imagine anyone understanding what he did not understand. He was worthless with concepts in magic that he couldn’t understand. So while Dumbledore and Harry believed in love, Voldemort thought they were weak. Unfortunately for him, he couldn’t understand that love led to his own death.
