Salazar Slytherin

Salazar Slytherin is one of the four legendary founders of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in J.K.

Rowling's Harry Potter series.

Known for valuing cunning and ambition, he founded Slytherin house and championed pure-blood supremacy—the belief that only wizards of pure magical lineage should study magic.

His name evokes villainy and elitism: He's got real Salazar Slytherin energy.
