You might be a Gryffindor Primary.

Gryffindor Primaries trust their moral intuitions and have a need and a drive to live
by them. They feel what’s right in their gut, and that matters and guides them. If
they don’t listen to and act on that, it feels immoral.

We call Gryffindor morality “felt” but that doesn’t mean they’re all impetuous,
emotional hellions. Gryffindors can still be intelligent, deliberate creatures who
weigh their decisions and moralities carefully. Reasoning, intellectualizing and
debate can be support for a Gryffindor’s felt morality– but those things can never
make a fully satisfying morality in themselves. Some things are just wrong, no
matter what pretty words you use to explain them.

You might be a Ravenclaw Secondary.

Ravenclaws are collectors. Dedicated to knowledge, to facts, systems, tools, or


skills, the things they have already learned are what they call on when things get
tough. They can collect useful skills, build complex clever systems, invent vitally
useful things, or just learn everything there is to know about the birds of South
America.

Ravenclaws’ efficacy often relies on what situation they are in: what the problem is
they have to solve and whether or not they’ve prepared the proper tools for that
problem. While Hufflepuffs and Gryffindors can apply their skills at stockpiling trust
or inspiring passion to attack various situations, Ravenclaws’ tools are necessarily
task specific. Do they know how to ride horses? Speak Greek? Do they have
contingency plans for earthquakes, zombie apocalypses, or a surprise visit from the
in-laws?

If they’ve already built themselves a tool set for a situation, they’re likely to excel at
it. If they have not, they’re likely to blink a few times while they try to either invent
something new for themselves or to cobble up something approximate from their
existing resources.
Ravenclaws, like Hufflepuff Secondaries, are at their best when they can prepare
before the problems show up, not improvise or invent in the moment. Where
Hufflepuffs invest in reputation, community, and effort, Ravenclaws invest in tools.
These tools can vary from detailed knowledge of modern Romance languages,
Mesopotamian history, Gothic architecture, and US civil court legal procedures; or
mastering the skills of carjacking, gourmet vegan cooking, juggling, and staying
level-headed in crisis; or keeping internal (or external) databases on their friends’,
allies’, and enemies’ likes, dislikes, connections, obligations, fears, weaknesses,
strengths, and goals. Some of these are more useful than others. Ravenclaws can
collect their tools with the aim of eventual usefulness, but are likely to also collect
knowledge just for the sake of knowledge.
