Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Who is head of Slytherin House when Harry Potter first comes to Hogwarts?

Answer: Professor Snape

Professor Snape, the rather biased Potions teacher, is also the head of Slytherin. He favors the Slytherins and looks for any excuse to knock points off of the other houses, Gryffindor especially.
2. Who is undoubtedly the most infamous wizard that was in Slytherin?

Answer: Voldemort

Tom Riddle and his cronies attended Hogwarts over fifty years ago. Riddle changed his name to Voldemort after leaving Hogwarts. We know that Riddle was in Slytherin because 1) he's Slytherin's heir and 2) Hagrid says so in 'Sorcerer's Stone', chapter 5, 'Diagon Alley'.
3. True or false: The Slytherins in Harry Potter's year always have double Potions with the Hufflepuffs.

Answer: False

No, they always have double Potions with the Gryffindors, much to Harry's chagrin. Once, in Book 3, Professor Snape took points from Gryffindor because Hermione Granger helped Neville Longbottom get his Shrinking Solution correct. A bit unfair, don't you think?
4. Since Draco Malfoy became the Slytherins' seeker, have they ever beaten the Gryffindors at Quidditch in games Harry has played in?

Answer: No

Well, not that we know of, anyway. Seriously! Check out the chapter of 'Order of the Phoenix' entitled 'The Lion and the Serpent'. Angelina Johnson and Professor McGonagall clearly state that Gryffindor won. (Of course, Malfoy didn't get on to the Slytherin Quidditch team on talent. One time, the Golden Snitch was only inches away from his left ear and he failed to notice it, preferring to taunt Harry instead of doing his job as Seeker. Captain Marcus Flint wasn't very happy about that.)
5. Who is the Slytherin ghost?

Answer: Bloody Baron

Incidentally, the Bloody Baron is the only one who can control Peeves the Poltergeist. Nearly Headless Nick is the Gryffindor ghost, the Fat Friar is the Hufflepuff ghost, and Professor Binns is the History of Magic teacher. (In case you were wondering, the Ravenclaw ghost is the Grey Lady.)
6. What was the monster in the Chamber of Secrets?

Answer: basilisk

A basilisk is a type of snake. Never look a basilisk straight in the eye unless you want to end up like Moaning Myrtle. Fortunately, the basilisk in the Chamber of Secrets was done away with. According to Book 2, Salazar Slytherin created the Chamber of Secrets which his heir alone could open. You can only open the Chamber if you can speak Parseltongue.
7. What color Quidditch robes do the Slytherins wear?

Answer: Green

The Slytherins wear green, the Gryffindors wear scarlet, the Hufflepuffs wear yellow, and the Ravenclaws wear blue.
8. What is the emblem of Slytherin House?

Answer: serpent

The snake is the emblem of Slytherin House because Salazar Slytherin could speak the language of snakes, which was a rare gift.
9. What is the full name of Lord Voldemort in English?

Answer: Tom Marvolo Riddle

I've learned of several translations for Voldemort's given name:
English: Tom Marvolo Riddle ("I am Lord Voldemort")
Spanish: Tom Sorvolo Ryddle ("Soy Lord Voldemort")
French: Tom Elvis Jedusor ("Je suis Voldemort")
Dutch: Marten Asmodom Vilijn ("Mijn Naam Is Voldemort") (thanks Nerweniel!)
Slovak: Tom Marvoloso Riddle ("A Som I Lord Voldemort") (thanks ME25!)
Bangla: Tom Marvolo Riddle ("Ami Lord Voldemort") (thanks Avik_Khan!)
Italian: Tom Orvoloson Riddle ("Son Io Lord Voldemort") (thanks ziameiko!)
Danish: Romeo G. Detlev Jr. ("Jeg er Lord Voldemort"; The G stands for Gåde meaning Riddle but those last three letters couldn't fit into the anagram)
All mean the same thing. If you know it in any other language, drop me a line! I need both the name and the sentence it rearranges to create (for example, "Tom Marvolo Riddle" and "I am Lord Voldemort"). Thanks!
10. Why does Malfoy want to get Hagrid sacked?

Answer: All of these

Another reason might be that Malfoy can't leave well enough alone, but he did get scorched by a Blast-Ended Skrewt and slashed by a hippogriff during two different Care of Magical Creatures classes, taught by Hagrid. Of course he just couldn't resist telling Umbridge those facts when she inspected the Care of Magical Creatures class the first time in the fifth book.

I hope you liked my quiz. If you are an HP fanatic like I am, feel free to send me a message. There are very few in my area and I need to know that I'm not alone!
