Harry Potter Folklore yes muggleborns can be sorted in Slytherin because in the chamber of secrets professor McGonagall said that they can when they were in the trafegaration class
According to JK Rowling, Muggleborns actually have magical heritage. There are Squibs who have integrated themselves into Muggle society, and eventually lost the connection to the wizarding world. But the magical gene can resurface many generations later. This is the only known way Muggleborns can obtain their magical abilities. Some of these people are probably Salazar's own descendants. So I think what Salazar says about magical purity makes no sense, given that anyone with magical ability must be connected to a pure blood ancestor. His ideology was likely formed before the wizarding world discovered this phenomenon.
I don't think he didn't want to teach Muggle-born because he hated them though I think it had more to do with the fact that Muggles were trying to capture wizards and burn them alive when Hogwarts was founded so he may have thought if was risky to allow them to come to the castle as they could have betrayed other wizards
@@slydaniel9875 A squib. Magic is genetic according to J.K. Rowling, meaning that a squib settled in with the muggle world. Magical heritage is then forgotten, showing up many generations later (Hermione).
Muggle-born Slytherins exist, but are very rare, as noted insultingly by Scabior the Snatcher. There have also been definite examples of half-bloods sorted into the house, including Tom Riddle, Dolores Umbridge, and Severus Snape. ... Also, pure-bloods are not automatically placed in Slytherin.
Um yeah read the slytherin welcome letter on pottermore (written by JK Rowling herself). It says "And yes, we have traditionally tended to take students who come from long lines of witches and wizards, but nowadays you’ll find plenty of people in Slytherin house who have at least one Muggle parent." At least one. And since it's written by JK it's canon. Yes, traditions are valued in the magical world. But traditions get outdated and regressive as time goes by. And the old traditions are seen more critically and will be eventually changed.
I know J.K. said Umbridge was in Slytherin, but nobody can actually convince me that she's right. Umbridge doesn't in any way appear like a Slytherin to me.
It can happen... It's even confirmed in the books that Muggle-born Slytherins exist, but are "very rare" as noted insultingly by Scabior the Snatcher...
Harry Potter Folklore probably the same way you thought grindylows and merpeople where the same thing? Crying out loud J K Rowling has confirmed this on twitter and pottermore...
What if they find out one of their ancestors was a squib and hated their muggle bloodline. Combined with the other traits of slytherin. Wouldn't that make them likely to be "very rare" ones to end up in Slytherin.
Yes. The hat sorts by personality traits. The pure-blood thing wasn't put in the hat. The reason their are no muggle-born Slytherins is because they hear stories that it's the 'evil house' and get scared by the idea of being put their and we all know that the hat takes your choice into account. Also my parents are complete muggles and I think my name makes it clear what house I'm in.
True, but they would be outcasts in that house unless maybe they somehow managed to earn respect from a pure-blood which may end up causing a division.
The sorting hat wanted to put Harry into slytherin and he had no problem with his muggleborn mothers heritage so I don't think the students have to value their magical heritage over their muggle heritage at all. Just have the slytherin traits.
Harry Potter is a half blood.. Just like Voldemort and Snape were.. So yes, he was allowed for that reason.. But Hermoine was muggleborn and for that reason would never be allowed to go there.. Only her children perhaps might be accepted if they posses the right traits.
Slytherin forfeited his 'right' to control who was and wasn't in his house when he left. It's not impossible that Gryffindor (since it IS his hat) had a little sit down with the hat and overrode that himself (assuming it was ever built into the hat's sorting criteria in the first place). That change would also send a message in a very Gryffindor way to the student body and staff about the direction Hogwarts was going in contrast to where it's been.
But according to your video explaining blood statuses, muggleborns are the descendants of squibs. Therefore even muggleborns have magical heritage, it's just long forgotten. Since genetics wasn't exactly a widely understood science in the time of the founders, is it possible Salizar wrongly thought muggleborns were a fluke of nature, but the sorting hat, being more omniscient, knew that many ambitious and cunning muggleborns also descended from noble magical families Salazar would have happily hosted?
Yes, they can be sorted into Slytherin. The hat takes their desires into consideration and if a muggle born really wanted it, they could be sorted into Slytherin, however, they would probably want to be there because they're a glutton for punishment, or they want to prove something. Also the Snatchers in the last book said, " There aren't many Mudbloods in Slytherin". This suggests that there were at least some, and the half bloods in Slytherin would be more welcoming to these students, than the pure bloods themselves. Also the author already stated that there were Muggle borns in Slytherin.
The original actors wouldn't be apart of the movie though , unless the movie is some kind of giant flashback. I.e Heromine telling some kids stories of the Founders. OH or perhaps we follow four new Kids ( one from each house ) who are reflections of the 4 headmasters
Hey, can you do a series for me, its about debunking each houses stereotypes such as Ravenclaws not all being stuck up nerds or not all Hufflepuffs being boring cookie eating lazy people and ETC. i would love for you to do this and thank you soo, much i look forward to your content every day and this would mean the world to me for you to do this. Thanks!
Yes! Slytherins are portrayed as evil in the books and drives new fans to believe that Slytherin is the "evil" house! I have to explain to my new friend as to why he is a Slytherin because he doesn't want to be bad! Also not all Ravenclaws are reserved and cold towards others, i know plenty of Ravenclaws in real life that are insanely social! As well as intelligent in their own way! Not all Gryffindors are pointless heroics that act on impulse! My little bro is an amazing lion who always thinks before doing stupid crap! I know plenty of Hufflepuffs who are insanely useful! A few of my best friends are Hufflepuff and they're always (pun intended) there for me! I don't think its fair to stereotype all of the houses as something when they all have something more to them!
except Slytherin.. Name a SINGLE wizard with a muggle heiritage that has being sorted in Slytherin.. Whom didn't had any magic in his family at all.. You cannot because their as far as I know hasn't being one.. He even left the Basalisk in the school to allow his ancastor to attempt to purge those from the school so I really doubt he would have accepted them under any conditions.
No, since there are many half-bloods inside Slytherin like Voldemort, Snape and many students were.. I mean actual muggleborn Wizards wit parents whom do not have any magical talents like Hermoine Granger or Lily Potter had..
Why does it seem that the ones that say muggleborn can't be in Slytherin are not of Slytherin House. Those of the other Houses always had a low opinion of Slytherins that's why they think we are dumb enough to throw away a cunning star student over pedigree
Ravenclaw here, and I reject your interpretation of Harry Potter Lore. In fact as does Rowling through "Word of God" as She have said that around the time of "Cursed Child" as much as I reject that book from my personal canon, Slytherin has "become diluted. It is no longer the pureblood bastion it once was." Not to mention it's stupid to have an entire house be practically labled "The Racist House" even after things have improved. Regardless, which house do you think a muggleborn valuing the Slytherin traits, ambition, cleverness and cunning, would be sorted into if not Slytherin?
the Insane Artist *Imagines a muggleborn version of Voldemort in Hufflepuff.* Well, ether way, it has been established by the Author that Muggleborns can be in Slytherin and has become more common Post-Voldemort Era.
the sorting hat was provided by godric gryffindor which valued traits over preferences. this happened after a feud between Slytherin n gryffindor and salazar left the school...basically its because blood status wasn't supposed to be the basis for sorting . i somehow feel that a muggle born with Slytherin traits can hence be sorted in the house. another view to the video.
Well, it might have. Sirrius would have potentially have been able to explain his side of things before Harry heard it from others. I mean, he would have seen first hand that Sirrius did not want to hurt or harm him and would have no negative bias against him and would have understood what was actually going on way earlier than before hand
I think the hat would have a struggle... if the student values those traits and is a perfect fit but it is a muggle-born it will have a hard time but mabye... It could see the best in student and sort him into Slytherin
Honestly I was always of the exact same opinion. But now that I'm thinking about it I think I have to change my mind. All muggleborns are, how ever far back it may be, descendants from squibs who integrated into muggle society. The magic gene is hidden, but stays in the bloodline and resurfaces many generations later. Very similar to Sybill Trelawney having her debatable "powers" from her great-grandmother Cassandra. I'm 99% sure this has been officially confirmed by JK Rowling. An example, though unconfirmed, would be Hermione Granger and Hector Dagworth-Granger (who slughorn mentioned to be a famous potion guy centuries ago). I strongly believe that this wizard had a squib somewhere in the family who cut ties and decided to live with muggles, and generations later eventually lead to Hermione's dad and then to her. I even want to go as far as saying that the sorting hat can not tell, whether someones parents are magical or not, simply because every single wizard or witch has the magical gene from either their mother or their father, even if they themselves did not have magical powers. There are non magical people from magical parents and magical people from non magical parents. Anyone related to them does have the potential to have magical descendants. Mudblood, or pure-blood does, in my opinon, not exist. So in conclusion. I'm not going against your statement that muggleborns cannot be sorted into slytherin, rather I am questioning the concept of "muggleborns" as a whole. Hope I explained that well enough to make sense XD
Salazar Slytherin valued ambition, determination and cunningness the most, that's why they are the main traits of Slytherin house. Blood purity might have been important to him, but if it was what he valued most than all pure bloods should be sorted into Slytherin, including the entire Weasley family, James Potter and Sirius Black. Since this is not the case your video is based on an entirerly wrong believe.
Yes, a Muggleborn CAN be Sorted into Slytherin. The House's traits are cunning & ambition. NOT being a pureblood coz that's a heritage thing, not a personality trait; otherwise half-bloods like Snape & Riddle wouldn't be allowed into the House either coz they're not purebloods (your theory on Slytherin half-bloods is reeeally interesting, though!!). As far as I'm concerned, Muggleborns who want to prove themselves to be worthy of having Magic (i.e. they're ambitious) or tricksters in some manner be it verbally/via pranks (i.e. they're cunning) get Sorted into Slytherin but have the common-sense to claim they're half-bloods coz of the prejudice most of their House would otherwise have against them.
If you forgot the Sorting Hat is its own being now and Harry was going to be sorted into Slytherin but he asked the Hat not to sort him there so a person that was a muggle-born if they would have asked the hat would have sorted that mean to Slytherin
if they didnt thats just asking for a third wizarding war in my opinion but if they can't change it then I hope the school made more of an effort to have the houses get along and show the good and the bad of each house to everyone.
what if they felt different completely... and when they found out they were able to use magic, they instantly neglected the fact that they were muggleborn... and had every trait of the house...?
I believe being a muggleborn would be a big point against it, but if the student's personality is so strong is Slytherin's traits, it might overcome the blood
Great video:) I've read and even seen videos of people pondering on "What if Lily was sorted into Slytherin" where they come up with the Snilly fantasy of Snape and Lily getting together and James just being a jerk. lol at that impossible scenario!
I hate that! I wish that muggle borns would make it into Slytherin! If Rowling ever made it so someone changed the hats way of sorting i would be insanely pleased.
He was obviously joking! Otherwise he would've questioned harry further! If that were the case then how come the basilisk attacked NO Slytherin? It just doesn't add up!
The short answer is yes. As Greyback said "Cause there aren't a lot of Mudblood Slytherins". This means that it's still possible. Because he said that there weren't any Mudblood Slytherins.
What if a muggleborn had parents who were like the Dursleys (highly anti-magic) and as a result the child grew to resent them by the time they went to attend Hogwarts and thus fully embraced the world of magic and rejected their muggle heritage and upbringing? Also you have to remember that, at the time of Salazar Slytherin, witch hunts were still very much a thing. And while a well educated witch or wizard could evade burnings and the like by casting a simple charm. Heck, Wendolyn the Weird actually allowed herself to be caught multiple times because she enjoyed the tickling sensation that she felt from the flames beyond her enchantment. Young wizards, who were not yet fully trained in magic, might not have been able to perform these spells and thus were highly vulnerable. As a teacher, Slytherin was obliged to consider the children's safety and so admitting students with strong ties to muggles and indeed the extreme anti-magic teachings could be considered quite the risk. And I believe that was part of his motivation, clearly he was elitist, however I also firmly believe that he would have been more tolerant of them had there not have been that threat looming. I also believe that he would indeed take muggleborns on the proviso that they were willing to cut ties with the muggle community for the safety of the school. But that's just my thoughts on the matter.
My Lord, I believe Wormtail made a mistake when he put your words on paper. The sentence I hate mudbloods and doesn't want them in the magical community, was naturally said by you without the grammatical error and dictated as I hate mudbloods and don't want them in the magical community. Your most loyal follower, Regulus Black
Hello Dork Lord, I'm a Muggle born! And I don't care what you think, you're wrong. 😝 Muggle born witches and wizards can't help being magical any more than you can help being a serial killer with delusions of grandeur. Oh, and tell Lucy I said 'Hi', he's cute!
COME AT ME, TOMMY-BOY! WE SHALL BATTLE TO THE DEATH AND THE VICTOR SHALL DECIDE THE FUTURE OF SLYTHERIN HOUSE!! Or we could just play checkers or something over it, but honestly, where is the drama there?
If a student was cunning and ambitious, but a Muggle-born, he or she would mostly likely be sorted into Hufflepuff, as the Hat said; "Good Hufflepuff, she took the rest and taught them all she knew." In other words, Hufflepuff not only picks student who values hard work and fair play, she also takes in all of those rejected by the other founders.
Kids that young are normally not power-hungry to that degree. Normally kids that age think they can already do just about anything, even more so when magic's available to them. Tom Riddle is the exception. Exceptions like that are very, very few and very far in between.
1:04 So how was Peter Pettigrew allowed into Gryffindor? (Not trying to be a smartass.) Sure! Salazar Slytherin would've preferred purebloods...but I don't think there was ever any official rule instituted that no Muggle-borns. My theory is: If Salazar Slytherin truly had his own House and wouldn't have to worry about Muggle-borns in it, what reason would he have had for leaving? His own little portion of a NO-MUDBLOOD was under his reign. I think what played a role in him leaving is that he himself knew Muggle-borns would have been able to be in his House. And if a half-blood must be more embracing of his/her magical side to be a Slytherin, why did the sorting hat almost put Harry Potter, a boy who'd had no knowledge of magic's existence throughout the first eleven years of life, into the very House? He considered no part of his heritage superior OR inferior. But as someone who was very eager to request a vid on this topic, I admit you made some great points!
Peter Pettigrew was sorted into Gryffindor, because the sorting hat puts you in the house whose traits you value most. So Peter must have value the Gryffindor traits most of all, at least when he was 11.
There has also been quite a few hints that the hat has a mind of its own, meaning that if it truly felt a muggleborn truely belonged in Slytherin it could and probably would place them there. It's not completely cut and dry, Albus Potter didn't despise his muggle part, as well as Merlin who went on to help muggles. Especially after Voldemort's defeat, the hat might have placed a few muggleborns in the house in some attempt to end the hatred
According to google, "Muggle-born Slytherins exist, but are very rare, as noted insultingly by Scabior the Snatcher. There have also been definite examples of half-bloods sorted into the house, including Tom Riddle, Dolores Umbridge, and Severus Snape. ... Also, pure-bloods are not automatically placed in Slytherin."
what if a muggle-born only cared about THEIR magical blood. like- what if a muggle-born was 100% set on the idea that they are above their muggle families and completely throw them aside?
okay! at 1:34 did anyone notice the hand with the walking stick is actually the and of Death, one of the four horsemen of the apocalypse from season 5 episode 22 Two Minutes To Midnight of Supernatural, the hit CW scifi show?
Muggleborns can be sorted into Slytherin because in the Deathly Hallows Greyback says not many muggleborns are in Slytherin, so that means muggleborns can be in Slytherin
Whoa! I had to unsubscribe when he said "... his pure blood beliefs need to be respected." Let's not forget that Rowling very purposely created parallels between blood purity, and the prejudice Muggles faced with Nazism, Hitler and racism that oppressed POC face in general. That's the exact opposite of what we should conclude. Salazar put a basilisk under the school to KILL Muggle students. He didn't respect the wishes of the other founders. Rowling wanted us to be critical of ideas, she wanted us to gather how opinions and ideas can be used to conjure up mass hate, destruction and death. Look at what Voldemort and Grindewald did with their hate toward Muggles. Come on man.
The hat, though 10000% respectful of Salazar's Wishes, would not deny that at least one Muggleborn had the Cleverness, Subtly, and Ambition to be in Slytherin House and should be sorted there even going against Slytherin's initial wishes. It's an argument for your 'Second Year Sorting' video, and how upon learning about the Magical World, some Muggleborns would want to find their place in it, maybe at the top, so they help those who's world allowed them to learn more than the everyday muggle. Thoughts???
I don’t know if you have already done it, but it could be an idea talking about what happens if the Sorting Hat should ever sort the kid in the wrong House
One time, I wrote a story about a Muggle-born Slytherin called Wanda Tropics aka Wailing Wanda and I think I wrote about her starting Muggle-born supremacy.
i came up with an OC for post-books-war. He was a pureblood that was born to two reluctant deatheaters. the parents didn't really follow the beliefs of voldemort and wouldn't even have been DEs but their families almost forced them into it, i'm thinking the OCs parents overheard the rest of their family talking about using the imperious charm/curse on them to get them to comply. As they faked a 'change of heart' and chose to join the DEs, they had to figure out what to do with their child who was an infant, recently born. Right before the Battle for Hogwarts, like a day or two before, they left their child at a muggle orphanage, saying they could not take care of him as they were to be homeless soon and the streets of London/Dublin (haven't decided if he is raised Irish or English yet) are not the place to raise a child. OCs parents are killed in the battle, either due to their true allegiances coming out and getting killed by the DEs or them being killed by something else like a giant spider or a centaur, and their families were arrested/killed in battle/executed when all was said and done. the OC, who was later named William Jameson (Jame-eh-son), was then adopted by a muggle family. William's birth parents had left two letters, one for William and one for his new family. They explained everything, for best understanding based on who was reading it, and explained that William was the rightful heir to his birth parents fortune. without knowing his parents ultimate fate, William, also called Will/Willy/Bill/Billy/Chuck (Older adoptive brother having some fun with him), had no real points against Slytherin house. He was sorted into that house and surprised many as they all thought he was muggleborn and it was not until year 5, during a Slug Club meeting, that he revieled that he was pure-blooded but adopted by muggles.
I think Muggle-born Slytherins DO exist because the Slytherin welcome letter says "you'll find plenty of people in Slytherin with at least one Muggle parent." "AT LEAST one" opens the possibility that there are Slytherins with TWO Muggle parents.
It's absolutely obvious that once Lord Voldemort put the Sorting Hat on Neville Longbottom's head and burned it broke some of the magical enchantments of the Hat. Like what was obviously a Fidelis charm of some kind. That's why in the epilogue Harry can talk to his son Albus Severus about the houses and the Sorting Hat itself. With this damage unchanged already shown in time in the main books without even touching that Abomination called The Cursed child. It's absolutely clear to me that whoever would have been used as the new stand in for the reinstatement and reinvigoration of the hot they would have to select someone to represent the new values of Slytherin house, as well as Gryffindor Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff. Their Byron viewing magic into the hot and leaving some room for the beliefs and values shift even if only just a little bit. For this house I believe the survivors of the battle of Hogwarts would choose the following professors do have sort of a second founding ceremony. With my extensive background in the magical traditions of Northern Europe I propose that the following ritual or something very similar would take place. Filius Flitwick Woodsong forward as the representative of Ravenclaw house. Minerva McGonagall would step forward as the representative of Gryffindor House. Professor sprout would step forward representing Hufflepuff and of course Horace Slughorn would come forward to represent Slytherin. I believe those who participated in the Battle of Hogwarts from all the houses with then create a circle around the for professors with the in the middle on its stool. Most likely on the summer Solstice as the ritual would have to be performed before the next school year. The ritual would take place in the Great Hall or so much blood and death had been spilled to preserve the school. An invocation calling for change to the values of the school in light of all the magical blood shed upon the stones of Hogwarts. A new school song would be sung by the students as each of the professors continued in Dunn County Sharron annunciating the values that would be kept and the values that would be changed for each house. I believe that Gryffindor House would include some statement that meaningless recklessness would no longer be tolerated. The desire to explore with the encouraged in its place. I believe ravenclaw's would expand their Credo to include and celebrate the creative Souls who view the world differently. saying something like there's wisdom in a difference of perspective and the tall creativity with respect for life would be welcome. The hufflepuffs would say something about no longer being afraid to accept their rightful accolades. That humility should not mean that one is easily swayed. And of course the greatest change of all would come from slughorn. he in staging the new values of Slytherin house would say that cunning, cleverness, patience, ambition and respect for authority would be the new values of Slytherin house and that all who value these would be welcome regardless of blood status. He would say something to the effect of the serpent will not be the cause of another War. The strongest magic of all in nearly every tradition around the world is blood magic. I believe that by invoking the blood spilled in the battle at Hogwarts that more than enough sacrifice would be present to alter even the ancient magic of the sorting hat. With the rededication complete the hat would sing whatever the new song is. since I don't consider the cursed child Canon. Nothing Beyond the epilogue is. this would be so much more logical course of action in a universe that had magic.
So because the founder is dead, we need to respect their opinion and can't change it? With that logic we should respect and not change Hitler's opinion.
Harry's son Albus Severus Potter was a half blood who certainly didn't reject his father's side of family and even didn't want to be sorted in Slytherin but despite all that was sorted exactly in Slytherin..
I can only think of one way a muggle born could be sorted into slytherin is if that muggle born was some magical deity reborn, and even that is flimsy.
Do muggleborns exist as Slytherin thought, though? Are you familiar with the one drop idea? How about the idea that muggleborns are actually squib descendants?
Crap those two are different a half blood is a wizard (or witch for now on I will be saying wizard out of habit) and muggle and a muggle born is a wizard who is born from two muggles so... yeh, I was wrong.
*Meanwhile in Hogwarts* Sorting hat: you are ambitious, cunning, and will do anything for greatness. You also value that very much. Student: Mhmm Sorting hat: you belong in HUFFLEPUFF
I don't know, I remember in Deathly Hallows one of the Snatchers who found Harry, Ron, and Hermione mentioned that Muggle-born Slytherins are rare. That would imply that they do exist.
In the last book, one of the snatchers mentions that there aren't a lot of Slytherin mudbloods, which indicates there could be few muggle born Slytherins: "Well, well, looks like we really 'ave caught a little Slytherin." said Scabior. "Good for you, Vernon, 'cause there ain't a lot of Mudblood Slytherins. Who's your father?"
Merlin was Muggleborn, possibly taught by Slytherin himself. He was one of the earliest known activists for coexistence between Muggles and magical folk- maybe having seen how hate between the two kinds affected his old master. Slytherin lived during a time when Muggles were united in persecuting magical folk. If he lived today he would have seen things differently.
I read a fan fiction once that pointed out something interesting: That until he tracked down his mother and father, Voldemort didn't know who his parents were or if they were magical. Which means he could've been a muggleborn for all he knew. That same fan fiction had Voldemort as a secret good guy of a sort. He was still a murderous sociopath, but he was actually so angry at his treatment in school for being thought a muggleborn in Slytherin that he started the Death Eaters to target the worst of the pureblood bigots under a false flag to get them killed. And to be honest, given how horrible a leader he was and how stupid he seemed to be, and how many Death Eaters died, as well as the fact it took him 11 years or more at the height of his power to try and fail to take over the Ministry (yet somehow he managed it the second time around in just 2 years?) means the theory has some merit.
Pretty sure the hat chooses based on the character traits that they either have or aspire to be, blood status isn't taken into account. I do believe they would have abolished Slytherin House's Muggleborn ommision over time if not right away since Salazar's falling out. No matter how much respect the other founders have for Salazar for what he helped start, I'm sure the muggleborn ommision thing isn't something they'd want to uphold even for his own house as all three of them were in agreement against it. I believe it is rare but not impossible. Muggle borns can be ambitious and cunning too ya know.

According to JK Rowling, Muggleborns actually have magical heritage. There are Squibs who have integrated themselves into Muggle society, and eventually lost the connection to the wizarding world. But the magical gene can resurface many generations later. This is the only known way Muggleborns can obtain their magical abilities.
Some of these people are probably Salazar's own descendants. So I think what Salazar says about magical purity makes no sense, given that anyone with magical ability must be connected to a pure blood ancestor. His ideology was likely formed before the wizarding world discovered this phenomenon.
I don't think he didn't want to teach Muggle-born because he hated them though I think it had more to do with the fact that Muggles were trying to capture wizards and burn them alive when Hogwarts was founded so he may have thought if was risky to allow them to come to the castle as they could have betrayed other wizards
Entropi so your saying Hermione’s great great great great great great great grandfather was magical?
@@slydaniel9875
A squib. Magic is genetic according to J.K. Rowling, meaning that a squib settled in with the muggle world. Magical heritage is then forgotten, showing up many generations later (Hermione).
SlyDaniel987 that’s how it works according to J.K. Rowling
I thought Riddle was the last descendant of Salazar
Muggle-born Slytherins exist, but are very rare, as noted insultingly by Scabior the Snatcher. There have also been definite examples of half-bloods sorted into the house, including Tom Riddle, Dolores Umbridge, and Severus Snape. ... Also, pure-bloods are not automatically placed in Slytherin.
Ian Duchannes yeah well duh,All of the Weasleys are in gryffindor and pure bloods don’t hate half bloods
Ian Duchannes No. there are no muggle-borns in Slytherin
J. K. Rowling stated that, Slytherin is no longer the pure-blood bastion that it once was. However, its dark reputation still lingers
Ian Duchannes My cousin is a muggle-born slytherin.......,
Ian Duchannes Delores umbridge is a muggle born
Um yeah read the slytherin welcome letter on pottermore (written by JK Rowling herself). It says "And yes, we have traditionally tended to take students who come from long lines of witches and wizards, but nowadays you’ll find plenty of people in Slytherin house who have at least one Muggle parent."
At least one.
And since it's written by JK it's canon. Yes, traditions are valued in the magical world. But traditions get outdated and regressive as time goes by. And the old traditions are seen more critically and will be eventually changed.
In fact, Dolores Umbridge was a Slytherin and also a half-blood who also rejected her own roots.
M.R. Pintado yeah even the dark lord was a half-blood
M.R. Pintado tom riddle was a half blood
M.R. Pintado half blood is different from muggleborn :) sorry to tell you that
I know J.K. said Umbridge was in Slytherin, but nobody can actually convince me that she's right. Umbridge doesn't in any way appear like a Slytherin to me.
M.R. Pintado snape was a half blood too
It can happen... It's even confirmed in the books that Muggle-born Slytherins exist, but are "very rare" as noted insultingly by Scabior the Snatcher...
It can't happen..Scabior was clearly being sarcastic..can't see how you didn't spot that
Tanios but not as he said, with literally no magic heritage. Someone like that would NEVER produce anyone with magic.
Harry Potter Folklore probably the same way you thought grindylows and merpeople where the same thing? Crying out loud J K Rowling has confirmed this on twitter and pottermore...
Anthony Madden Muggleborns come from squibs in the blood line, though. So they do have magical heritage.
What if they find out one of their ancestors was a squib and hated their muggle bloodline. Combined with the other traits of slytherin. Wouldn't that make them likely to be "very rare" ones to end up in Slytherin.
Yes. The hat sorts by personality traits. The pure-blood thing wasn't put in the hat. The reason their are no muggle-born Slytherins is because they hear stories that it's the 'evil house' and get scared by the idea of being put their and we all know that the hat takes your choice into account.
Also my parents are complete muggles and I think my name makes it clear what house I'm in.
Welcome to our House.
Slytherin Forever then how come little to no slytherins are muggleborn?That is one of the traits and is in the hat
Slytherin Forever and you’re “scared defence” is a bit useless because not every muggle born would research as much as hermoine granger
Jake ORegan they still here stories when they arrive, just like Harry did. Is everyone on this videos comment section completely retarded?
Jake ORegan apparently you didn't read her comment it answers your question. Guess your not a Ravenclaw
but J.K. Rowling said that THERE are Mungle-born studants in Slytherin. in a interview.
joaocisne556 yeah,Did you watch the video?
Jake ORegan word of god (J.K) said there are mungle born on Slytherin
True, but they would be outcasts in that house unless maybe they somehow managed to earn respect from a pure-blood which may end up causing a division.
@UnknownDarkDragon shut up
joaocisne556 can you send a link?
Where my Slytherins at!?
I'm a slytherin.
i did not expect to be sorted into slytherin (i was expecting ravenclaw), but in hindsight it makes sense iguess.
Bryguy150 oiiii
Bryguy150 hehe here
Bryguy150 here
Me!
The sorting hat wanted to put Harry into slytherin and he had no problem with his muggleborn mothers heritage so I don't think the students have to value their magical heritage over their muggle heritage at all. Just have the slytherin traits.
Maybe the hat decided on Gryffindor in the end because it saw that Harry didn't value his magical heritage over his muggle heritage.
Joe Rivet yeah but they were sorting him,not his mother.He’s a half blood
Joe Rivet he was a half blood, not a muggleborn. Has anyone on this comment section read the god damned books?
Harry Potter is a half blood.. Just like Voldemort and Snape were.. So yes, he was allowed for that reason.. But Hermoine was muggleborn and for that reason would never be allowed to go there.. Only her children perhaps might be accepted if they posses the right traits.
In the books, Lily was a slytherin.
Slytherin forfeited his 'right' to control who was and wasn't in his house when he left. It's not impossible that Gryffindor (since it IS his hat) had a little sit down with the hat and overrode that himself (assuming it was ever built into the hat's sorting criteria in the first place). That change would also send a message in a very Gryffindor way to the student body and staff about the direction Hogwarts was going in contrast to where it's been.
But according to your video explaining blood statuses, muggleborns are the descendants of squibs. Therefore even muggleborns have magical heritage, it's just long forgotten. Since genetics wasn't exactly a widely understood science in the time of the founders, is it possible Salizar wrongly thought muggleborns were a fluke of nature, but the sorting hat, being more omniscient, knew that many ambitious and cunning muggleborns also descended from noble magical families Salazar would have happily hosted?
Yes, they can be sorted into Slytherin. The hat takes their desires into consideration and if a muggle born really wanted it, they could be sorted into Slytherin, however, they would probably want to be there because they're a glutton for punishment, or they want to prove something. Also the Snatchers in the last book said, " There aren't many Mudbloods in Slytherin". This suggests that there were at least some, and the half bloods in Slytherin would be more welcoming to these students, than the pure bloods themselves. Also the author already stated that there were Muggle borns in Slytherin.
We need a harry potter movie about the founders before all the good, old actors are dead i mean they seem to be dropping off like flys
taygata i know, I mean seriously why isn't it even in the works? These four houses have become such a part of our lives, we need this movie
God yes , i want to see Salazar in action.
This. We need this!
Go tweet jk Rowling
The original actors wouldn't be apart of the movie though , unless the movie is some kind of giant flashback. I.e Heromine telling some kids stories of the Founders.
OH or perhaps we follow four new Kids ( one from each house ) who are reflections of the 4 headmasters
Hey, can you do a series for me, its about debunking each houses stereotypes such as Ravenclaws not all being stuck up nerds or not all Hufflepuffs being boring cookie eating lazy people and ETC. i would love for you to do this and thank you soo, much i look forward to your content every day and this would mean the world to me for you to do this. Thanks!
Coco 6578 I'm a lazy cookie eating Hufflepuff lmao
Ok , but I'm sure there's more to you than just that, i mean, you can't be useless!
Coco 6578 Love this idea! I hope for a ravenclaw one and a slytherin one
Yes! Slytherins are portrayed as evil in the books and drives new fans to believe that Slytherin is the "evil" house! I have to explain to my new friend as to why he is a Slytherin because he doesn't want to be bad! Also not all Ravenclaws are reserved and cold towards others, i know plenty of Ravenclaws in real life that are insanely social! As well as intelligent in their own way! Not all Gryffindors are pointless heroics that act on impulse! My little bro is an amazing lion who always thinks before doing stupid crap! I know plenty of Hufflepuffs who are insanely useful! A few of my best friends are Hufflepuff and they're always (pun intended) there for me! I don't think its fair to stereotype all of the houses as something when they all have something more to them!
great idea
A muggleborn can be sorted into any house!
Hermioney Granger you are very correct
except Slytherin.. Name a SINGLE wizard with a muggle heiritage that has being sorted in Slytherin.. Whom didn't had any magic in his family at all.. You cannot because their as far as I know hasn't being one..
He even left the Basalisk in the school to allow his ancastor to attempt to purge those from the school so I really doubt he would have accepted them under any conditions.
DutchGabbers there is someone who is haft-blood though, does that count?
No, since there are many half-bloods inside Slytherin like Voldemort, Snape and many students were.. I mean actual muggleborn Wizards wit parents whom do not have any magical talents like Hermoine Granger or Lily Potter had..
DutchGabbers Snape....Tom Riddle (descended from the magical Gaunts).....Dolores Umbridge (one Muggle parent)
Why does it seem that the ones that say muggleborn can't be in Slytherin are not of Slytherin House. Those of the other Houses always had a low opinion of Slytherins that's why they think we are dumb enough to throw away a cunning star student over pedigree
Jynessa Swann Dean IS a Slytherin. In addition, TheBakeey, also known as Sophie, is another Slytherin RUclipsr who said the same thing.
Wait but I'm a Hufflepuff and my best friend is a Slytherin, how could I have a low opinion of you?
Ravenclaw here, and I reject your interpretation of Harry Potter Lore. In fact as does Rowling through "Word of God" as She have said that around the time of "Cursed Child" as much as I reject that book from my personal canon, Slytherin has "become diluted. It is no longer the pureblood bastion it once was." Not to mention it's stupid to have an entire house be practically labled "The Racist House" even after things have improved. Regardless, which house do you think a muggleborn valuing the Slytherin traits, ambition, cleverness and cunning, would be sorted into if not Slytherin?
TheFluttershyFan I guess based on the parameters he put down they would go to Hufflepuff if no other house would accept them.
the Insane Artist *Imagines a muggleborn version of Voldemort in Hufflepuff.* Well, ether way, it has been established by the Author that Muggleborns can be in Slytherin and has become more common Post-Voldemort Era.
TheFluttershyFan Aye, that's why I'm not entirely sold on his logic.
TheFluttershyFan maybe ravenclaw.
Your sad
the sorting hat was provided by godric gryffindor which valued traits over preferences. this happened after a feud between Slytherin n gryffindor and salazar left the school...basically its because blood status wasn't supposed to be the basis for sorting .
i somehow feel that a muggle born with Slytherin traits can hence be sorted in the house.
another view to the video.
JK Rowling confirmed that Muggleborn Slytherins exist.
What if the knight bus was 5 minutes late to pickup harry in little whinging in HP3
P.S I'm ravenclaw bruh
I don't think it'd be any difference because Sirius didn't want to attack Harry.
Omar Gillespie I don’t think it would make a difference
Omar Gillespie I am ravenclaw too#cool!!
Well, it might have. Sirrius would have potentially have been able to explain his side of things before Harry heard it from others. I mean, he would have seen first hand that Sirrius did not want to hurt or harm him and would have no negative bias against him and would have understood what was actually going on way earlier than before hand
Harry might have curb stomped "Scabbers"
slytherin🐍🐍💚💚
Indeed.
Right here
accionaomi right here m8 🐍🐍🐍🐍
accionaomi hello there, a fellow Slytherin at your service!
Jenna Wasteste well my bro is a proud Hufflepuff and just attacked me
i have been moaning about your 2 min video's with no depth but this is a step back in the right direction love listening to you again
I think you're wrong on the hat. The hat belonged to griffindor and I think it would have a little favoritism towards the view of griffindor.
I think the hat would have a struggle... if the student values those traits and is a perfect fit but it is a muggle-born it will have a hard time but mabye... It could see the best in student and sort him into Slytherin
Honestly I was always of the exact same opinion.
But now that I'm thinking about it I think I have to change my mind.
All muggleborns are, how ever far back it may be, descendants from squibs who integrated into muggle society.
The magic gene is hidden, but stays in the bloodline and resurfaces many generations later.
Very similar to Sybill Trelawney having her debatable "powers" from her great-grandmother Cassandra.
I'm 99% sure this has been officially confirmed by JK Rowling.
An example, though unconfirmed, would be Hermione Granger and Hector Dagworth-Granger (who slughorn mentioned to be a famous potion guy centuries ago). I strongly believe that this wizard had a squib somewhere in the family who cut ties and decided to live with muggles, and generations later eventually lead to Hermione's dad and then to her.
I even want to go as far as saying that the sorting hat can not tell, whether someones parents are magical or not, simply because every single wizard or witch has the magical gene from either their mother or their father, even if they themselves did not have magical powers.
There are non magical people from magical parents and magical people from non magical parents.
Anyone related to them does have the potential to have magical descendants.
Mudblood, or pure-blood does, in my opinon, not exist.
So in conclusion. I'm not going against your statement that muggleborns cannot be sorted into slytherin, rather I am questioning the concept of "muggleborns" as a whole.
Hope I explained that well enough to make sense XD
3:11 Yo am I the only one who finds little Snape SUPER cute?!
Salazar Slytherin valued ambition, determination and cunningness the most, that's why they are the main traits of Slytherin house. Blood purity might have been important to him, but if it was what he valued most than all pure bloods should be sorted into Slytherin, including the entire Weasley family, James Potter and Sirius Black. Since this is not the case your video is based on an entirerly wrong believe.
Another great video about the founder of my House!
Yes, a Muggleborn CAN be Sorted into Slytherin. The House's traits are cunning & ambition. NOT being a pureblood coz that's a heritage thing, not a personality trait; otherwise half-bloods like Snape & Riddle wouldn't be allowed into the House either coz they're not purebloods (your theory on Slytherin half-bloods is reeeally interesting, though!!).
As far as I'm concerned, Muggleborns who want to prove themselves to be worthy of having Magic (i.e. they're ambitious) or tricksters in some manner be it verbally/via pranks (i.e. they're cunning) get Sorted into Slytherin but have the common-sense to claim they're half-bloods coz of the prejudice most of their House would otherwise have against them.
it is possible
harry asked not to be sorted in to slytherin, so you could ask to be sorted in slytherin
Lily Potter was slytherin. But hollywood had other plans.
It's rare, it's just extremely ambitious kids who want to use it to crawl up the ranks
If you forgot the Sorting Hat is its own being now and Harry was going to be sorted into Slytherin but he asked the Hat not to sort him there so a person that was a muggle-born if they would have asked the hat would have sorted that mean to Slytherin
I think they would change it so muggle born with Slytherins traits can be in Slytherin now a day💛💛💛💛💛⚡⚡⚡⚡⚡
Ella Peartree exactly 👌
Ella Peartree I don’t think you can just change it
nope
.. what
if they didnt thats just asking for a third wizarding war in my opinion but if they can't change it then I hope the school made more of an effort to have the houses get along and show the good and the bad of each house to everyone.
what if they felt different completely... and when they found out they were able to use magic, they instantly neglected the fact that they were muggleborn... and had every trait of the house...?
JK said muggle-borns can be sorted into Slytherin....
I believe being a muggleborn would be a big point against it, but if the student's personality is so strong is Slytherin's traits, it might overcome the blood
Great video:) I've read and even seen videos of people pondering on "What if Lily was sorted into Slytherin" where they come up with the Snilly fantasy of Snape and Lily getting together and James just being a jerk. lol at that impossible scenario!
I hate that! I wish that muggle borns would make it into Slytherin! If Rowling ever made it so someone changed the hats way of sorting i would be insanely pleased.
Muggle borns can make it into Slytherin.. It's confirmed in the books! Scabior the snatcher even remarks about them just that they're very rare.
He was obviously joking! Otherwise he would've questioned harry further! If that were the case then how come the basilisk attacked NO Slytherin? It just doesn't add up!
Jk Rowling has even confirmed it in the past... Give it a quick Google :) there's twitter confirmation
Coco 6578 I don’t think you can just change it
Oh ok then. Thats amazing thnx and sorry for trying to prove you wrong like the idiot i am XP
The short answer is yes. As Greyback said "Cause there aren't a lot of Mudblood Slytherins". This means that it's still possible. Because he said that there weren't any Mudblood Slytherins.
My favorite house Slytherin 😈
What if a muggleborn had parents who were like the Dursleys (highly anti-magic) and as a result the child grew to resent them by the time they went to attend Hogwarts and thus fully embraced the world of magic and rejected their muggle heritage and upbringing?
Also you have to remember that, at the time of Salazar Slytherin, witch hunts were still very much a thing. And while a well educated witch or wizard could evade burnings and the like by casting a simple charm. Heck, Wendolyn the Weird actually allowed herself to be caught multiple times because she enjoyed the tickling sensation that she felt from the flames beyond her enchantment. Young wizards, who were not yet fully trained in magic, might not have been able to perform these spells and thus were highly vulnerable.
As a teacher, Slytherin was obliged to consider the children's safety and so admitting students with strong ties to muggles and indeed the extreme anti-magic teachings could be considered quite the risk.
And I believe that was part of his motivation, clearly he was elitist, however I also firmly believe that he would have been more tolerant of them had there not have been that threat looming. I also believe that he would indeed take muggleborns on the proviso that they were willing to cut ties with the muggle community for the safety of the school.
But that's just my thoughts on the matter.
Ayye where my fellow Hufflepuffs' at?💛💛💛💛
Willow Brooks woop! #HufflePuffsUnite
YAS HUFFLEPUFF o/
Slytherin House Please calm down there's nothing wrong with being a Hufflepuff
Willow Brooks Hufflepuff reporting for duty! Who wants a hug?
Willow Brooks Heya! 💛🖤💛🖤
You inspired me to make a Harry Potter channel!
Awesome, we'll check that out :)
Amazing! I love your channel
Zina Hurani Thanks 🙌🏻
Slytherin was always against muggleborns. Salazar Slytherin loathed muggleborns. I hate mudbloods and doesn’t want them in the magical community.
My Lord,
I believe Wormtail made a mistake when he put your words on paper. The sentence I hate mudbloods and doesn't want them in the magical community, was naturally said by you without the grammatical error and dictated as I hate mudbloods and don't want them in the magical community.
Your most loyal follower,
Regulus Black
Lord Voldemort thank you my Dark Lord for clarifying this
Hello Dork Lord, I'm a Muggle born! And I don't care what you think, you're wrong. 😝 Muggle born witches and wizards can't help being magical any more than you can help being a serial killer with delusions of grandeur. Oh, and tell Lucy I said 'Hi', he's cute!
COME AT ME, TOMMY-BOY! WE SHALL BATTLE TO THE DEATH AND THE VICTOR SHALL DECIDE THE FUTURE OF SLYTHERIN HOUSE!!
Or we could just play checkers or something over it, but honestly, where is the drama there?
Lord Voldemort you would be a muffle born if all this shit was real, you realize that right?
Actually Scabior said in the Deathly Hallows, when Harry said that he was in Slytherin, "Good for you, there ain't MANY mudbloods in Slytherin"
+Yo! He was being sarcastic... no muggleborn Slytherins
Your channel is awesome💜
Q: “Could a muggleborn be sorted into Slyherin?”
A: No
If a student was cunning and ambitious, but a Muggle-born, he or she would mostly likely be sorted into Hufflepuff, as the Hat said; "Good Hufflepuff, she took the rest and taught them all she knew." In other words, Hufflepuff not only picks student who values hard work and fair play, she also takes in all of those rejected by the other founders.
Carlin Rackley So a Muggleborn with cunning, ambition and a Voldemort-like lust for power would be with the likes of Hufflepuffs? IDK...
Kids that young are normally not power-hungry to that degree. Normally kids that age think they can already do just about anything, even more so when magic's available to them. Tom Riddle is the exception. Exceptions like that are very, very few and very far in between.
1:04
So how was Peter Pettigrew allowed into Gryffindor? (Not trying to be a smartass.)
Sure! Salazar Slytherin would've preferred purebloods...but I don't think there was ever any official rule instituted that no Muggle-borns. My theory is: If Salazar Slytherin truly had his own House and wouldn't have to worry about Muggle-borns in it, what reason would he have had for leaving? His own little portion of a NO-MUDBLOOD was under his reign. I think what played a role in him leaving is that he himself knew Muggle-borns would have been able to be in his House.
And if a half-blood must be more embracing of his/her magical side to be a Slytherin, why did the sorting hat almost put Harry Potter, a boy who'd had no knowledge of magic's existence throughout the first eleven years of life, into the very House? He considered no part of his heritage superior OR inferior.
But as someone who was very eager to request a vid on this topic, I admit you made some great points!
With Harry didn’t the sorting hat look at at the part of Voldemort’s soul that was in him though?
Believing it to be part of Harry.
Peter Pettigrew was sorted into Gryffindor, because the sorting hat puts you in the house whose traits you value most. So Peter must have value the Gryffindor traits most of all, at least when he was 11.
There has also been quite a few hints that the hat has a mind of its own, meaning that if it truly felt a muggleborn truely belonged in Slytherin it could and probably would place them there. It's not completely cut and dry, Albus Potter didn't despise his muggle part, as well as Merlin who went on to help muggles.
Especially after Voldemort's defeat, the hat might have placed a few muggleborns in the house in some attempt to end the hatred
1:35 As a Supernatural fan I have to point out that that hand is Death's. I'd recognize that shot anywhere.
According to google, "Muggle-born Slytherins exist, but are very rare, as noted insultingly by Scabior the Snatcher. There have also been definite examples of half-bloods sorted into the house, including Tom Riddle, Dolores Umbridge, and Severus Snape. ... Also, pure-bloods are not automatically placed in Slytherin."
what if a muggle-born only cared about THEIR magical blood. like- what if a muggle-born was 100% set on the idea that they are above their muggle families and completely throw them aside?
Yeah duh i am muggleborn and I am slytherin
Ana Marija same
Woah there here on the requirements for a fan to be pure blood
•MUST HAVE SEEN THE MOVIES AND BOOKS
Woah there here on the requirements for a fan to be pure blood
•MUST HAVE SEEN THE MOVIES AND BOOKS
I’m a muggle(born) and Pottermore sorted me into Slytherin...
I like the fact that slytherins house is specific on bloodtypes, it adds a flaw to the house. It has no muggleborns.
okay! at 1:34 did anyone notice the hand with the walking stick is actually the and of Death, one of the four horsemen of the apocalypse from season 5 episode 22 Two Minutes To Midnight of Supernatural, the hit CW scifi show?
See Snape was being dumb when he told lily " you better be in slytherin " he should know by now she's a muggle born
It was stated in the Deathly Hallows that muggle borns can be sorted into Slytherin, but it is very rare.
Muggleborns can be sorted into Slytherin because in the Deathly Hallows Greyback says not many muggleborns are in Slytherin, so that means muggleborns can be in Slytherin
When you showed the merch lightning struck outside my window
Whoa! I had to unsubscribe when he said "... his pure blood beliefs need to be respected." Let's not forget that Rowling very purposely created parallels between blood purity, and the prejudice Muggles faced with Nazism, Hitler and racism that oppressed POC face in general. That's the exact opposite of what we should conclude. Salazar put a basilisk under the school to KILL Muggle students. He didn't respect the wishes of the other founders. Rowling wanted us to be critical of ideas, she wanted us to gather how opinions and ideas can be used to conjure up mass hate, destruction and death. Look at what Voldemort and Grindewald did with their hate toward Muggles. Come on man.
ruclips.net/video/a50AgbjAYNc/видео.html
The hat, though 10000% respectful of Salazar's Wishes, would not deny that at least one Muggleborn had the Cleverness, Subtly, and Ambition to be in Slytherin House and should be sorted there even going against Slytherin's initial wishes.
It's an argument for your 'Second Year Sorting' video, and how upon learning about the Magical World, some Muggleborns would want to find their place in it, maybe at the top, so they help those who's world allowed them to learn more than the everyday muggle.
Thoughts???
What if the muggleborn who hated everything of his non magical life?
pottermore states otherwise.... I'm a proud muggleborn slytherin
From witch movie and scene is your intro? btw keep up the good work
I don’t know if you have already done it, but it could be an idea talking about what happens if the Sorting Hat should ever sort the kid in the wrong House
One time, I wrote a story about a Muggle-born Slytherin called Wanda Tropics aka Wailing Wanda and I think I wrote about her starting Muggle-born supremacy.
Can someone who is the child of two Squib who despises his parents and acknowledges only his pure-blooded grandparents be sorted Into Slytherin?
I think they can be, if they resent their muggle parentage
This video is gooood!
i came up with an OC for post-books-war. He was a pureblood that was born to two reluctant deatheaters. the parents didn't really follow the beliefs of voldemort and wouldn't even have been DEs but their families almost forced them into it, i'm thinking the OCs parents overheard the rest of their family talking about using the imperious charm/curse on them to get them to comply. As they faked a 'change of heart' and chose to join the DEs, they had to figure out what to do with their child who was an infant, recently born. Right before the Battle for Hogwarts, like a day or two before, they left their child at a muggle orphanage, saying they could not take care of him as they were to be homeless soon and the streets of London/Dublin (haven't decided if he is raised Irish or English yet) are not the place to raise a child. OCs parents are killed in the battle, either due to their true allegiances coming out and getting killed by the DEs or them being killed by something else like a giant spider or a centaur, and their families were arrested/killed in battle/executed when all was said and done. the OC, who was later named William Jameson (Jame-eh-son), was then adopted by a muggle family. William's birth parents had left two letters, one for William and one for his new family. They explained everything, for best understanding based on who was reading it, and explained that William was the rightful heir to his birth parents fortune. without knowing his parents ultimate fate, William, also called Will/Willy/Bill/Billy/Chuck (Older adoptive brother having some fun with him), had no real points against Slytherin house. He was sorted into that house and surprised many as they all thought he was muggleborn and it was not until year 5, during a Slug Club meeting, that he revieled that he was pure-blooded but adopted by muggles.
I had a thought, what about an infant muggle-born being adopted by a pure-blood house and raised in their beliefs?
I think Muggle-born Slytherins DO exist because the Slytherin welcome letter says "you'll find plenty of people in Slytherin with at least one Muggle parent." "AT LEAST one" opens the possibility that there are Slytherins with TWO Muggle parents.
I get the feeling that a lot were after the Battle of Hogwarts.
If they did prior to Voldemorts defeat they would be outcasts if they where found out
we need to get a book about the 4 founders of Hogwarts
My Dad was sorted into Slytherin, though I can't imagine either of his parents being magical.
It's absolutely obvious that once Lord Voldemort put the Sorting Hat on Neville Longbottom's head and burned it broke some of the magical enchantments of the Hat. Like what was obviously a Fidelis charm of some kind. That's why in the epilogue Harry can talk to his son Albus Severus about the houses and the Sorting Hat itself. With this damage unchanged already shown in time in the main books without even touching that Abomination called The Cursed child. It's absolutely clear to me that whoever would have been used as the new stand in for the reinstatement and reinvigoration of the hot they would have to select someone to represent the new values of Slytherin house, as well as Gryffindor Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff. Their Byron viewing magic into the hot and leaving some room for the beliefs and values shift even if only just a little bit. For this house I believe the survivors of the battle of Hogwarts would choose the following professors do have sort of a second founding ceremony.
With my extensive background in the magical traditions of Northern Europe I propose that the following ritual or something very similar would take place.
Filius Flitwick Woodsong forward as the representative of Ravenclaw house. Minerva McGonagall would step forward as the representative of Gryffindor House. Professor sprout would step forward representing Hufflepuff and of course Horace Slughorn would come forward to represent Slytherin.
I believe those who participated in the Battle of Hogwarts from all the houses with then create a circle around the for professors with the in the middle on its stool.
Most likely on the summer Solstice as the ritual would have to be performed before the next school year. The ritual would take place in the Great Hall or so much blood and death had been spilled to preserve the school. An invocation calling for change to the values of the school in light of all the magical blood shed upon the stones of Hogwarts.
A new school song would be sung by the students as each of the professors continued in Dunn County Sharron annunciating the values that would be kept and the values that would be changed for each house.
I believe that Gryffindor House would include some statement that meaningless recklessness would no longer be tolerated. The desire to explore with the encouraged in its place. I believe ravenclaw's would expand their Credo to include and celebrate the creative Souls who view the world differently. saying something like there's wisdom in a difference of perspective and the tall creativity with respect for life would be welcome. The hufflepuffs would say something about no longer being afraid to accept their rightful accolades. That humility should not mean that one is easily swayed. And of course the greatest change of all would come from slughorn. he in staging the new values of Slytherin house would say that cunning, cleverness, patience, ambition and respect for authority would be the new values of Slytherin house and that all who value these would be welcome regardless of blood status. He would say something to the effect of the serpent will not be the cause of another War.
The strongest magic of all in nearly every tradition around the world is blood magic. I believe that by invoking the blood spilled in the battle at Hogwarts that more than enough sacrifice would be present to alter even the ancient magic of the sorting hat.
With the rededication complete the hat would sing whatever the new song is.
since I don't consider the cursed child Canon. Nothing Beyond the epilogue is. this would be so much more logical course of action in a universe that had magic.
So because the founder is dead, we need to respect their opinion and can't change it? With that logic we should respect and not change Hitler's opinion.
you're wrong. I'm muggle-born and a proud slytherin
Harry's son Albus Severus Potter was a half blood who certainly didn't reject his father's side of family and even didn't want to be sorted in Slytherin but despite all that was sorted exactly in Slytherin..
I can only think of one way a muggle born could be sorted into slytherin is if that muggle born was some magical deity reborn, and even that is flimsy.
Do muggleborns exist as Slytherin thought, though? Are you familiar with the one drop idea? How about the idea that muggleborns are actually squib descendants?
When I saw the title I was like “yes, snake is a “mud-blood” and he was sorted into sletherin.”
Crap those two are different a half blood is a wizard (or witch for now on I will be saying wizard out of habit) and muggle and a muggle born is a wizard who is born from two muggles so... yeh, I was wrong.
I believe, a muggle born could dislike that it is one and then be ambitious enough to convince everyone they aren't.
*Meanwhile in Hogwarts*
Sorting hat: you are ambitious, cunning, and will do anything for greatness. You also value that very much.
Student: Mhmm
Sorting hat: you belong in HUFFLEPUFF
a muggleborn with the right mindset to the house gains entry into slytherin
I don't know, I remember in Deathly Hallows one of the Snatchers who found Harry, Ron, and Hermione mentioned that Muggle-born Slytherins are rare. That would imply that they do exist.
In the last book, one of the snatchers mentions that there aren't a lot of Slytherin mudbloods, which indicates there could be few muggle born Slytherins:
"Well, well, looks like we really 'ave caught a little Slytherin." said Scabior. "Good for you, Vernon, 'cause there ain't a lot of Mudblood Slytherins. Who's your father?"
I'm muggle born and I'm in Slytherin
I don't know I've never thought about this question, but my answer is yes
You are correct as it's even confirmed in the books :)
Please tell that can a accio charm can work through a object?
There aren't many pure-bloods in Harry Potter, right? I think the sorting hat would mostly need to focus on Salazar's character mostly for Slytherin.
Merlin was Muggleborn, possibly taught by Slytherin himself. He was one of the earliest known activists for coexistence between Muggles and magical folk- maybe having seen how hate between the two kinds affected his old master. Slytherin lived during a time when Muggles were united in persecuting magical folk. If he lived today he would have seen things differently.
I read a fan fiction once that pointed out something interesting: That until he tracked down his mother and father, Voldemort didn't know who his parents were or if they were magical. Which means he could've been a muggleborn for all he knew.
That same fan fiction had Voldemort as a secret good guy of a sort. He was still a murderous sociopath, but he was actually so angry at his treatment in school for being thought a muggleborn in Slytherin that he started the Death Eaters to target the worst of the pureblood bigots under a false flag to get them killed. And to be honest, given how horrible a leader he was and how stupid he seemed to be, and how many Death Eaters died, as well as the fact it took him 11 years or more at the height of his power to try and fail to take over the Ministry (yet somehow he managed it the second time around in just 2 years?) means the theory has some merit.
Pretty sure the hat chooses based on the character traits that they either have or aspire to be, blood status isn't taken into account. I do believe they would have abolished Slytherin House's Muggleborn ommision over time if not right away since Salazar's falling out. No matter how much respect the other founders have for Salazar for what he helped start, I'm sure the muggleborn ommision thing isn't something they'd want to uphold even for his own house as all three of them were in agreement against it. I believe it is rare but not impossible. Muggle borns can be ambitious and cunning too ya know.
Jk Rowling has said its definitely possible if the muggle born has enough of slytherins other traits
Where did that photo of Salazar Slytherin come from?
