Harry Potter Personality Test
Have you ever daydreamed about receiving your Hogwarts letter and being whisked away to a world of enchantment and adventure? Well, even if you're a Muggle, there's still a way to experience the magic of the Harry Potter universe. This Harry Potter personality quiz will let you discover which beloved character from the iconic series you most resemble!
J.K. Rowling's brilliant novels captured hearts and minds by crafting living, breathing characters who felt truly human despite their fantastical setting. From the courageous yet humble Harry Potter himself to the delightfully eccentric Luna Lovegood, each personality leapt off the page.
Surely you've found yourself relating to the fierce intellect of Hermione Granger, the fiery loyalty of Ron Weasley, or even the complex inner struggle of Draco Malfoy or Severus Snape.
With a combination of scenario-based, opinion-based, and personality questions, this quiz will shed light on your core traits and values. Perhaps you'll turn out to be a brilliant overachiever like Hermione. Or maybe your moral compass and protective nature point more towards Harry. You could even surprise yourself by matching the quirky yet kind-hearted spirit of Luna. The possibilities are sure to delight any true Potterhead!
More Than Just a Sorting Hat
Identifying with a Hogwarts house is hardly the full picture when it comes to figuring out what Harry Potter character you are most like. That's merely a starting point for the layered personalities featured in the series. For instance, you may align most with the cleverness and wit of Ravenclaw, but what if you also share Dumbledore's progressive outlook and wisdom beyond his years? Alternatively, the brave heart of a Gryffindor could be combined with the more shadowed complexity of a Snape-like persona.
Rather than simply sorting you by house, this quiz will provide extensive descriptions that capture the essence of each character's spirit, flaws, strengths, goals, and experiences. Finally, you'll have clarity on why you most personify that hero, villain, or eccentric figure from the beloved franchise.
Which Harry Potter Character Are You?
So prepare to be transported from the humdrum Muggle world to the magical wizarding world! This experience is about to unlock your inner Harry, Hermione, or perhaps even Voldemort himself (sorry, too far?). Set aside your butterbeer and chocolate frogs for a few minutes as you explore thought-provoking scenarios. How would you respond if a friend was being bullied? What kind of spell might you invent? Would you bend rules for the greater good like Dumbledore?
Along the way, you'll also ponder deeper questions like your spirit animal, greatest fears, and how friends might describe you. By facing these inquisitive conundrums head-on, you'll ultimately meet your true Potterverse counterpart. And who knows? You just might discover some highly magical self-knowledge too.

I got: Harry Potter!
Like Harry Potter himself, you possess an admirable moral compass and ability to face overwhelming adversity with courage. You cherish your loved ones and aren’t afraid to break rules for the greater good. Though humble, you inspire those around you with your resilience.
That’s pretty much what I was expecting.
I got: Hermione Granger!
wow I really do seem like her
I got: Luna Lovegood!
Much like the quirky Luna, you march to the beat of your own drum. You see the world through a unique, unbridled perspective. Though often misunderstood, you spread kindness and comfort to others. Your free-spirited ways hide an inner strength and wisdom.
She is my favorite character and I knew we were alike!!!
I got: Dumbledore!
Like the venerable Dumbledore, you are full of deep wisdom and have an open-minded, progressive outlook. You see the bigger picture in life and aren’t afraid to bend rules for the greater good. Your words carry immense influence as you inspire others to reach their potential.
Harry Potter!!!! yayyyy
You got: Draco Malfoy! [-Took it again!]
4% of players got this result!
Cunning and elitist like Draco, you crave power, status, and wealth. You’re arrogant about your family’s legacy and look down on those you deem inferior. Though you outwardly lack empathy, you wrestle with your internal values, creating an ongoing internal conflict.
I agree with this more than the result I got with Harry…
Hey! Anyone who is willing, could you tell me what your favorite Harry Potter book is and who is the best character, in your opinion! And maybe your house too!❤️💚💛💙
Also, who is worse:
Peter Pettigrew🐭 OR Fenrir Greyback🐺?
[Who you said above] OR Umbridge🐱?
Let me know, please! I would love to meet fellow Potter heads!⚡🪄
Hello! For any Potterheads interested… Welcome to PotterChat!🪄 On PotterChat we expect NO foul language, RESPECT to everyone, even if opinions differ, and we treat each other as EQUALS. (Should I go as far to say: love one another like family?) Whenever you are teasing make sure that is clear. (Vienna, this was a great idea by the way. I love it so much! Thank you!)
I would love to meet some Potterheads that can abide by these rules. Send a friend request to me, and I’ll add you to PotterChat! Be warned, anyone who shows disrespect will be kicked! (Man, I hope the Quizly staff doesn’t mind this…😅)
Mine is Half-Blood Prince, I like Harry and Fawkes, I hate Umbridge the most, and I’m a Gryffindor.
Thank you! I’m in Slytherin…
Is anyone gonna answer me?
No, oh. Okay…
My favorite person is probably Hermione and Ginny. I like Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows (Part 1 and Part 2) and the first and second book. I’m between ravenclaw, hufflepuff, and gryffindor. I don’t like pettigrew.
Thank you!
your welcome
I don’t like Pettigrew! He betrays the Potters and frames Sirius!!!
what does it mean adept player on your profile?
What do you mean???
it says top fan, adept, and a 4 day streak.
To be honest I don’t know…
Oh cool! Thanks!!!
never mind it means you’ve played over 10 quizzes.
Thank you for being the first to reply!😊
You got: Draco Malfoy!
Cunning and elitist like Draco, you crave power, status, and wealth. You’re arrogant about your family’s legacy and look down on those you deem inferior. Though you outwardly lack empathy, you wrestle with your internal values, creating an ongoing internal conflict.

Much like the quirky Luna, you march to the beat of your own drum. You see the world through a unique, unbridled perspective. Though often misunderstood, you spread kindness and comfort to others. Your free-spirited ways hide an inner strength and wisdom.
Of course. The last two questions were clear about me being related to Luna. I already knew the result, LoL. I am a Ravenclaw as well.

UGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!! Harry is literally the worst, most over-dramatic, character in the series!
I don’t know…Draco is pretty over-dramatic.
“Oh it’s killed me! I’ll get you for this! You and your bloody chicken!” -Draco
*in hospital wing Draco moaning and going on and on as though he was dying”
“You’re free to go Mr. Malfoy, you’re fine!!” -Madame Pomfrey
Sorry, I just now saw this… Yes, but Draco is funny! Harry over here like, “Expelliarmus!” 24/7! He is just too much for me. And besides, Draco is cute!
You got: Hermione Granger
Like Hermione, you are brilliant, book-smart, and prioritize rules and logic. You believe in fighting for equality and justice. Though sometimes ill-tempered, you are fiercely loyal to your friends and passionate about your beliefs. Your thirst for knowledge is unmatched by few others.

Hi, I want to point out a mistake that was made in this quiz. For one of the last questions, when it told you to choose your favorite subject in Hogwarts, the picture for charms was Hermione brewing the Polyjuice Potion. And that’s a potion, not a charm or spell. Just wanted to let you know!
Harry Potter
