ok I've got thoughts about this
I read somewhere that the Hogwarts house isn't what you are, but what you would like to be (example Neville, wasn't brave at all but eventually became that since it was his dream). So, the question is, while she is definitely ambitious and curious, if she'd rather be successful (in her case, getting rid of the ancient magic) or knowledgeable. She loves learning about cultures and the magical world, but her ancient magic is always gonna be a priority.
So... Slytherin?
Hey so you seem to have ten thousand OCs and I need to ask someone this so might as well ask the expert:
My OC Leandra's ancient magic is different. If she doesn't use it up, it causes a huge abrupt burst and endangers the people around her. Long story short, she HATES it and her main goal is to get rid of it.
Which house would she be in? I'd say it's between Slytherin and Ravenclaw. Slytherin because she's basically willing to do anything to reach her goal of getting rid of her magic, Ravenclaw because she's also curious and reads for fun and wants to know all about the magical world (one of the motives being that she can get rid of her magic)
What do you think? :D
Hello! Sorry for the late reply—I had to really think about it pretty much all day to figure out which house Leandra should be in, but I finally decided. I think the best house for her is Slytherin because she truly has all the qualities that fit that house.
What really surprised me is that she doesn’t want her Ancient Magic. All of my MCs actually do want to embrace their Ancient Magic, but I completely understand why Leandra doesn’t. I actually like that about her—it’s powerful character depth.
I really like the way you’ve written it too, how she doesn’t use her Ancient Magic but it can still burst out of her, especially when she’s overwhelmed—and that can hurt the people around her. That makes it even more understandable why she wants to get rid of it. It’s actually a good thing that she’s so aware and doesn’t want to harm anyone. So yeah, I definitely see why she wants to be free of it.
I hope this helps you and oh my gosh you called me an expert. (Joking) I’m actually shocked. I’m not really an expert but I try my best but thank you for calling me an expert but yeah I really hope this solves it and if it doesn’t, I’m very sorry. 😰
