Hunt Challenge: The Sorting Hat
So here comes another twisted challenge of mine. This one is basicaly a text challenge.
The idea this time around will be for you to choose a line from any of the
Sorting Hat's Songs that defines house qualities, and then icon a character that you think represents that line best.
Some clarifications:
a) You should at least have two words from the song in your icon.
b) It has to be a line that talks about Hogwarts' Houses and their qualities, you can't choose a line talking about Hogwarts' history or how the Founders got along.
c) The icon can be about a character who belongs to that house, or one that doesn't. You could, for example, choose a line about Ravenclaws and iconize either Luna or Hermione, or even choose a line about Slytherin and iconize Dudley if you want to.
I hope I'm not making it too hard on you guys, if you ever think these are just too much please say so! As always don't fear to ask me any doubts you might have!
