CAS Background hufflepuff

Hufflepuff, founded by Helga Hufflepuff, is one of the four houses at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, and is known as the most inclusive of the other three; it values ​​hard work, dedication, patience, loyalty, and fair play rather than any particular aptitude of its members. Its emblematic animal is a badger, and its colors are yellow and black. The most notable head of the house is the Herbology Mistress Pomona Sprout, and its patron ghost is the Fat Friar.

The house roughly corresponds to the element of earth, and it is for this reason that its colors were chosen: yellow represents wheat, while black is symbolic of the soil. Students sorted into Hufflepuff often demonstrate exceptional abilities in Herbology, given the house's correspondence with the earth.
