Salazar Slytherin: not a genocidal dickhead, the TL;DR version

-Slytherin didn’t want muggle-born kids to come to Hogwarts because the school was built in the 900s AD, a time when muggles were burning magic folk alive, and Slytherin didn’t want muggles to discover Hogwarts through “double agents.” He reluctance to accept muggle-born students at his school was misread and misconstrued over 1000 years to bring us to the timeline of Harry Potter. -Slytherin built a panic room that only he could open in case the school did come under attack. He put a creature in the panic room that only he could control, a monster that could annihilate an entire army just by looking at them, that could also get around parts of the castle inside the walls (though there was no indoor plumbing at the time, where were latrine chutes and sewer systems). Over that 1000 years, it became legend and myth, which is also where it got its sinister name. -Tom Riddle was the first to locate and open it since Slytherin (that we can be sure of) and he did that in 1943. Some time between 1943 and 1992 (the year of CoS) Tom Riddle did some remodeling, turning it into the Chamber we know now. -The “Heir of Slytherin” ideology is just part of the myth: any parseltongue could have opened the chamber, just as any parseltongue could have re-trained the basilisk to obey them. No one opened the chamber because no one could find it, and eventually they gave up looking and said it didn’t exist. magelet-301 and I made a post that you can find here, with all of our reasoning and “data” in long form.

By Gryffindor, the bravest were Prized far beyond the rest

For Ravenclaw, the cleverest Would always be the best

For Hufflepuff, hard workers were Most worthy of admission

And power-hungry Slytherin Loved those of great ambition.

The key of having the perfect Hogwarts Houses nails:

Paint your nails pinky to thumb these colors: yellow, red, green, blue, your actual house's color. Write each house's initial with black/white nail polish.

Now here comes the twist:

By painting each individual color on these exact fingers, you'll realize a great meaning.

Pinky [yellow] – a Hufflepuff would never break Pinky Promises. They'll gather a lot trough life, and carry them to the grave.

Ring finger [red] – a Gryffindor would point up this finger when their partner would ask them a ridiculous favor, signaling no ring means no promises.

Middle finger [green] – a Slytherin uses this finger more than any of the other four, simply and elegantly telling you to fuck off. You're standing in the way of their life, on the bad side, might I add.

Index finger [blue] – a Ravenclaw would enjoy pointing at things, then give you a two hour long presentation why it interests them. Also kindly flatter you with how good they are at directions.

Thumb [your house's color] – you'll show this finger to signal other's everything's fine, including you. Each house would make this different. This is you, actually you. Embrace and love it.

!!! Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw could be reversed, as a Hufflepuff would selflessly help and point out things for you, and you can't trick a Ravenclaw, they know way more secrets than you !!!

The Wonderful Adventures of The Founders

Title: The Wonderful Adventures of The Founders

Pairings: to be determined

Fandom: Harry Potter: Founders Era

Canon Character(s): Helga Hufflepuff, Rowena Ravenclaw, Salazar Slytherin, Godric Gryffindor, Peeves (alive) Nearly Headless Nick (alive) Rowena Ravenclaw, The Bloody Barron

OC Characters: Cressida Hufflepuff, David Hufflepuff, Tilly The House Elf, Nimly the House Elf,

Plot: Get to know the founders as they go about their lives leading up to the founding of Hogwarts and everything that happened after.

Disclaimer: I do not own the world or the characters penned by J.K Rowling. While canon each character will also have my own personal touch. None of these events in this series are linked to JK Rowling herself and are all of my own creations.

Here it is, canon evidence that Salazar Slytherin was NOT a racist bigot. He was concerned for the well-being and safety of the magical community, which could have been compromised by letting the “common people” know that wizards and witches existed.

...speak to me, Slytherin, greatest of the Hogwarts Four... or not, whatever...

Godric Gryffindor was English, Helga Hufflepuff was Welsh, and Rowena Ravenclaw was Scottish; so by process of elimination, Salazar Slytherin was probably Irish.

The Sorting Hat says "Shrewd Slytherin, from fen" and Ireland has fens so that could actually work??

-funny because I'm working on the bit where Tom meets Salazar's (talking) statue and now I'm imagining a back-and-forth No, you have an accent!

...I digress but apparently they named this snake the Salazar’s pit viper or Trimeresurus salazar, and I'm kind of obsessed.

Chapter Twenty-Seven: A Rook Parliament

Tom Riddle returns to Hogwarts, and wakes the Serpent of Slytherin for the first time. Additionally, he finds newfound respect in being a Prefect amongst his peers… and access to the Restricted Section. The beginning of the end... begins.

Except below cut:


But he resisted the instinct to fill his hands with stacks of books, and instead selected a sufficiently Dark looking tome, titled Magick Moste Evile, all the while imagining Dumbledore's face if he caught Tom reading it.

I am a prefect, Professor, he would say. I've earned the trust required and demonstrated that I know the difference between practice and theory.

And he did. But he still fully intended to practise, anyway...

He flipped through the index, noting the most interesting entries to revisit later; mostly any particularly nasty curses in case he ended up in another duel.

But something else caught his eye.

"Of the Horcrux, wickedest of magical inventions, we shall not speak nor give direction —"

Horcrux. Tom knew it must have some great significance. The silvery, sinful word rolled around in his head, making his tongue tingle with its awful power.

But who would he consult? Slughorn?

"Professor, I was wondering — I came across it while reading — could you tell me about…" he whispered to the empty library.

He spoke it to the hallowed halls. The terrible word.

"Horcruxes?"

No. Too bold. Slughorn might get suspicious.

The book let out a ghostly wail when he slammed it shut.

biologically plausible headcanons

All of Slytherin's descendants are immune to snake (and probably also basilisk) venom.

Antivenoms, which are used to treat snake bites, are basically antibodies against a specific type of snake venom (usually produced by injecting the venom into some domestic animal).

There are things called 'natural antibodies,' which are germline (inherited from birth) encoded antibodies found in individuals without (known) prior antigenic experience. They have been found in several vertebrate species, including humans.

So, totally plausible that Slytherin's descendants have sparkly magic anti-snake venom antibodies.

Chapter Twenty-Nine: Soul Murder

Dumbledore seems strangely listless and depressed. Tom grows increasingly paranoid. The nature of evil, of course, is that it will always take advantage...

"No one's been killed," said Tom. "Soon as the Mandrakes mature, everyone will be alright."

"Tom," said Dumbledore. "Come; do not insult my intelligence. You know, as well as I, the legend of the Chamber of Secrets, and furthermore, that it is simply implausible to think that the most the self-proclaimed 'Heir of Slytherin' wishes to do is Petrify. Did they not leave a threatening message on the wall, next to the first victim: The Chamber of Secrets has been opened; enemies of Slytherin, beware!"

"It hasn't Petrified any Slytherins, and I don't think it will. I'm not an enemy of Slytherin, I'm in his house!" said Tom. "I'm not afraid for myself, I just want to make sure nobody else gets hurt."

It was Dumbledore's turn to look contemptuous.

"It hasn't Petrified any Parselmouths, either," said Dumbledore.

"You don't think I would do this?" asked Tom, trying his best to appear the picture of calm-yet-horrified righteousness, though his heartbeat was already in his mouth.

"Not at all. I only wondered if you had by chance spoken to anyone with the same ability."

He relaxed, but only slightly.

"It's rare, Professor, that's what you told me. I think the 'Heir' would keep it a secret if they were, wouldn't they? And for Parseltongue to matter, the monster would have to be some kind of serpent."

"Perhaps their victims might know something," mused Dumbledore. "Yet there hasn't been a single clue; the Heir is very clever not to leave traces. If only we could talk to them; you know, Tom, three may keep a secret, if two of them are dead."

Determined to unsettle him, Tom pressed the point. "And what do you think my secret is, sir? The two of my parents are dead."

"Mmm," he said, unperturbed. "So is Billy Stubb's rabbit, Tom."

"Or perhaps in Slytherin You'll make your real friends, Those cunning folk use any means To achieve their ends." ~The Sorting Hat
