I saw this done somewhere else and thought Harry Potter fans might want to try here. Basically just list the characters of OUAT and what Harry Potter house you think the Sorting Hat would place them into.
e.g.
Charming – Gryffindor
Emma – Gryffindor
Rumplestiltskin – Slytherin
Baelfire – Hufflepuff
Snow White – Hufflepuff
Archie – Hufflepuff
Belle – Ravenclaw
Henry – Ravenclaw

By the way I like you avatar.

I would agree with most of that except Belle could possibly be in Griffyndor too. Like Hermione, she’s smart enough to be in Ravenclaw but she’s also brave. I would even possibly put Rumple in Grriffyndor too. He’s the character, like Neville, you’d wonder why he was sorted into Griffyndor and not one of the other houses that seems better suited to him,yet it would all make sense in the end.

Keeper of FelixSeptember 28, 2013 at 5:22 pm #212743Hook’s GirlParticipantHook – Gryffindor – because of his bravery and his potential of being a hero in a villian ‘s body like Sirius Black. Sirius could have been evil like his family was but chose not to be.
Cora – Slytherin – wanting power and respect and will stop at nothing to get what she wants.
Regina – I’m on the fence between Slytherin or Ravenclaw. Depends if she’s acting like the EQ when she more like her mother or acting like her original self or when she was trying to not use magic.
Nothing is impossible on OUAT. Everything has a way of repeating itself. Keeper of the Keeper tread: https://oncepodcast.com/forums/topic/official-keeper-thread-3/#post-217924

Good point. I forgot about Nevil. He is brave but is less outgoing than most Griffyndors. I can definitely see Belle as this.

I agree, I don’t think we have seen either Hook or Regina be calculating enough to be in Slytherin. Hook is probably Gryffindor, he tends to be an opportunist taking action when the moment arises instead of producing huge masterplan. And Regina never wanted power or to be queen so she doesn’t have the ambition of a Slytherin.

September 29, 2013 at 2:22 pm #212799sacrlcParticipantI am also a big HP fan. My biggest disappointment was what happened to Lupin and Tonks at the end. alas.
Anyhow, for what it’s worth, here is my 2 cents.
———————–
Slytherin
traits: cunning, power-hungry, ambitious, will use any means to achieve their endsRegina
Rumple
Cora(Like Snape, each had love buried inside)
———————–
Gryffindor
traits: brave, bold, daring, chivalrousCharming
Snow
MulanEmma
torn between Hufflepuff and Gryffindor, utlimately GryffindorHook
torn between Slytherin and Gryffindor, utlimately Gryffindor———————–
Hufflepuff
traits: just, loyal, patient, unafraid of toilArchie
Phillip
Aurora
Red———————–
Ravenclaw
traits: clever, intelligent, wit, learningHenry
Belle———————–
As we know, someone sorted into a house could have traits of another house.
Harry could have been in either Slytherin or Gryffindor but he chose Gryffindor.
And, who would have thought Pettigrew would have been a Gryffindor?Don't grow up. It's a trap.
August 23, 2015 at 6:50 pm #307439PriceofMagicParticipantReviving this thread. (Thank god for the search function though I did come across some interesting threads in general discussion)
RG and I started having this discussion in the Harry Potter reread thread about which houses the characters would be in and rather than derail that thread, RG pointed me towards this one.
I looked up the house traits on Wikipedia and placed 20 Once characters in the houses I thought they’d be in. Do you agree/ disagree? What houses do you think would suit the Once characters?
Gryffindor values courage, bravery, nerve, and chivalry.
Belle- Because although she doesn’t fight monsters or whatever, she makes the hard decisions when it comes to Rumple. She doesn’t turn a blind eye to his misdeeds, she stands up for what is right even though it is hard for her to do so. An example being banishing Rumple from Storybrooke.Emma- Because, despite her experiences, she isn’t afraid to give people a second chance. She is willing to fight against forces greater than herself and sacrifice herself for the greater good.
Nealfire- Because, like Belle, he isn’t afraid to stand up to Rumple no matter how much it pains him to do so. He stands up for what is right, even when it’s hard to do so. He admits to his mistakes and strives to be the best he can be, both for the sake of his son and the general good.
Tinkerbell- Because she stood up for Regina even when others told her it was a lost cause. She continued trying to help, even defying her superior’s orders to give up, which cost her wings. In Neverland, despite feeling resentment, she continued to help Regina and went against Pan even though the risk of being found out could’ve meant certain death.
Jefferson- Because he made the hard decision to not interfere in his daughter’s life whilst she was under the curse. He chose not to ruin Grace’s happy cursed life, even though it meant she did not know who he was. For 28 years he watched his daughter from afar, letting her have the family life he believed he could not provide for her.
Mulan- Because, much like Jefferson, she chose to put the happiness of someone else over her own wants. She walked away to let Aurora have her happy ending with Philip rather than burden her with her feelings which would only have caused conflict.
Hufflepuff values hard work, patience, justice, and loyalty.
Robin- Because he has his moral code that he generally sticks to, even if it conflicts with what he wants. He would rather taker the slow honest road rather than take the morally dubious quicker road.
Charming- Because he has a strong sense of right and wrong in most matters. His weakness is his family, he’d do anything to protect them, even if it means going down a darker path than he is comfortable with.
Snow- Because she is very similar to Charming. She has a strong sense of right and wrong and isn’t afraid to fight the good fight no matter how long it takes. However, like Charming, her weakness is her family and her desire to protect her loved ones sometimes leads her to make rash decisions that is based on her emotions rather than logic
Felix- Because he is loyal, almost to a fault. He did not turn on Pan, whom he considered a friend, even though it would’ve been in his best interest to do so which suggests he considers betraying a friend to be morally wrong. His moral compass is skewed in Pan’s favour, but it could be argued that he was doing what he believed to be right in terms of saving his friend’s life and Neverland (if Pan had spun that line with everyone).
Archie- Because he does not judge people based on their past misdeeds. He understands that people make mistakes and will try and talk people out of making rash decisions. He provides a friendly ear to the likes of Regina and Rumple who otherwise would not have someone to talk to.
Red- Because she is loyal to her friends and believes in doing the right thing. She is protective of those she cares about.
Ravenclaw values intelligence, creativity, learning, and wit.
Rumple- Because although it seems he would fit into Slytherin, at his core Rumple has all of the above traits, he’s just using them negatively rather than positively.August- Because he just doesn’t seem to fit in any of the other houses. He doesn’t have the ruthless streak to be in Slytherin. He doesn’t have the courage or bravery to be in Gryffindor, instead thinking of his own needs above all others. He’s too selfish to be in Hufflepuff, he only came back to help Emma because it suited him to do so. He has intelligence and knowledge of matters others may not, but he does not use this knowledge for the greater good, only when it suits his needs.
Slytherin house values ambition, cunning, leadership, and resourcefulness.
Henry- Because he has displayed cunning and resourcefulness. He has ambition, he wants to be a hero in the same way he views the rest of his family as heroes. He’s not above resorting to deceit to get his own way. Henry has leadership qualities, he often initiates his Operation Whatevers.
Regina- Because she is impatient when it comes to getting what she wants. Unlike Robin who would take the slow honest road, Regina will take the quick dishonest road to achieve her goal. Whilst Regina may justify her actions to herself by claiming it’s for another’s sake, she’s not afraid to throw someone under a bus, such as Belle, if it means she can achieve her goal.
Hook- Because when he wants something, he pursues it so tunnel vision to the point of obsession. He knows what he wants and demonstrates a strong level of determination to achieve his goal. Whether it be revenge on an enemy, or winning someone’s heart, Hook becomes so single focussed that anyone in his way had better watch out.
Zelena- Because undoubtedly she is a Slytherin through and through. She is determined to get what she wants, and resorts to underhanded tactics to get her way. She will use people as pawns as achieve her aims without thought. Zelena is nobody’s follower.
Pan- Because, much like Zelena, he is a Slytherin through and though. He is nobody’s follower, he is in charge and woe betide anyone who challenges him. He is resourceful and cunning, manipulating those around him to further his goals. Even those he considers friends are not immune to being tossed aside as soon as the moment is right.
Cora- Because her ambition knows no bounds. Her determination to get what she wants is unrivalled, affecting generations and the lives of others. Cora is nobody’s fool, you’re either with her or against her.

Keeper of FelixAugust 23, 2015 at 7:56 pm #307445GaultheriaParticipantI’d say Slytherin for Snow, because she was an aristocratic little bigot when she was of sorting age. Belle would be Slytherin, too — the Slughorn kind — because she likes to influence the rich and powerful.
Ravenclaw gets Henry Jr. (he solved the puzzle of the town) and August (his story resembles Helena Ravenclaw’s).
For Hufflepuff, I’ll say Zelena and Cora, for being so committed to caring for their parents that it ruined them. (Yeah, just like Merope, but I think Merope didn’t have enough ambition to be chosen for Slytherin despite her heritage — and I think Marvolo’s treatment of her backs this up.)
Gryffindor gets Hook (arrogant and loyal, like James and Sirius). Lily would be Gryffindor, too, cursed with a dose of pure evil grafted onto her soul, carrying a distinguishing mark, raised as an orphan until a weird ragged guy told her an incredible story that explained everything.

That’s an interesting comparison you make between the two. I never thought of that before Lily and Young Emma did mention Harry Potter as well.
