Each Harry Potter character has their charms – and we’re not referring to the subject at Hogwarts.
You’ve got your own charms, too, and in this quiz we’ll match you to the HP character that most closely shares your winning traits and personality.
The Sorting Hat might be able to distinguish people’s personalities into Slytherin, Ravenclaw, Hufflepuff and Gryffindor, but the folks who inhabit the Wizarding World possess character traits that are far too complex to simply be defined by their Houses.
Wizards are smart and clever creatures, right? Well, it turns out that a lot of them are intelligent in different ways. Some are good at hiding and concealing things, some are logical and organized, and some are gifted with a knack for leadership. Others are witty and emotionally wise, and others yet are remarkably creative at solving problems.
Intelligence aside, each character is a cocktail of motivations, quirky habits, bizarre attitudes, secrets, and harrowing struggles in life. There are those who are in it for a chance to make a difference in the world of magic, and those who are interesting in their own personal goals – be it friends and romances, wealth and power, or keeping promises after all this time.
Do any of their traits sound like yours? Fancy thinking you have a mirror match in one of your wizardly idols? Which Harry Potter character are you? Let’s get started with this personality quiz and find out!

Hermione and Luna are both extremely smart and gifted, but their genius shows in markedly contrasting ways.
Hermione is logical and empirical. She soaks up information from books like a sponge, and trusts in their authority to beat any problem. She also enjoys learning for the sake of it, making her academically superior. Much of her prowess comes from diligence, through study and practice.
In contrast, Luna is intuitive, imaginative and observant. She revels in the chaos of the real world, applying her knowledge and outside-the-box mentality to discern details that nobody else can see. Her quick wits and open-minded nature make her excellent at improvising and adapting to different conflicts.
Sirius was an Animagus. Through painstaking research and elaborate rituals, he learned how to transfigure his body into the form of an animal. In his Animagus form, Sirius Black became a giant, imposing dog. His form is the basis for the nickname Padfoot, as a dog’s feet have pads, which are layers of tough, thick skin cushioning the paws against heat or cold.
