Introduction
On the seventh floor, past the portrait of the Fat Lady, lies the House that is Gryffindor. Only those who are brave of heart and true of mind, and maybe just a little crazy, would know the right password in order to enter into a world where people can make the impossible possible, and maybe scare the living daylights out of you in the process.
Founded by Godric Gryffindor over 1000 years ago, to which the House owes its namesake, HOL Gryffindor values bravery and chivalry which can be represented in Godric's Sword, but they also value their individuality and - for lack of a better word - insanity, which can be represented by the Sorting Hat. After all, how many wizards would own a hat who sings, and then put it in charge of sorting students?
HOL Gryffindor House has always been the largest House in HOL - Virtual Hogwarts, with its numbers being about 1/3rd of HOL's total student population - ranging from 300 students to well past 3000. This huge size often requires a huge House staff to be available for the House in order to keep Gryffindor relatively organized and sane. However, no number of prefects or professors in Gryffindor can actually keep the House from not being chaotic and crazy at the same time. So Gryffindor has settled with a happy medium between the two: organized chaos and responsible insanity.
There probably is a lot that one does not know about being a Gryffindor, or being a member of the community that is Gryffindor. Many Gryffindors themselves probably know very little about the House they're in. HOL Gryffindor House has that feeling of being an open mystery waiting to be discovered and exploited.
We don't always know what though...
