Huntress

Jezebel Redfern
Gryffindor- "Where dwell the brave at heart/ Their daring nerve and chivalry/ Set Gryffindors apart"
Oh, Jezebel. Another difficult character to place. My first thought was Slytherin. It's been a long time since I've read anything on Jez and from what I remember about her she was a Slytherin. She was willing to do anything to get what she wanted and she found clever and cunning ways to do it. But I went back and skimmed over Huntress, and I realized that Jez did everything she could to protect humans from people who'd been like her. Also, Jez is like fire. She's a free spirit with a mission. She's random and has a basic routine, but is not afraid to wing it. She's less cunning than I had originally thought and less… punctual. So I decided Gryffindor over Slytherin.

Morgead Blackthorn
Slytherin- "Or perhaps in Slytherin/ You'll make your real friends, / Those cunning folk use any means/ To achieve their ends."
As I was going back and going over Huntress, one thing that really surprised me about the story was how cold Morgead was. He's ruthless and power-hungry and cruel. But he's also riding the waves of his emotions. He's betrayed and angry and that's made him into the person Jez reunites with. He learns to care again, but the fact that he's so good at being cold and ruthless is why I'm putting him in Slytherin. Also, he is extremely cunning. Hey, Slytherins are allowed to feel too.

Hugh Davis
Ravenclaw- "Or yet in wise old Ravenclaw/If you're a ready mind/Where those of wit and learning/ Will always find their kind"
It's said in the Night World series that as the Old Souls come back to life, they come back wiser and cleverer than before. They have more experience than other people and have certainly seen more. Especially the awakened Old Souls which Hugh just so happens to be.
Black Dawn
-o-
Maggie Neely
Gryffindor- "Where dwell the brave at heart/ Their daring nerve and chivalry/ Set Gryffindors apart"
Steely Neely, my favorite female character in Black Dawn. She's a character I liked and managed to snag some of my affection for her bravery and sacrifice, but doesn't quite make it to the ultimate Mary-Lynnette level in my heart. Maggie is still a very amiable character though. There was not a thing I disliked about her. Maybe she's a little stupid at times, but she trusts her heart and her instincts and is so protective. I think Maggie is a character to be admired.
-o-
Delos Redfern
Gryffindor- "Where dwell the brave at heart/ Their daring nerve and chivalry/ Set Gryffindors apart"
I had to debate with myself again on this character. Delos is another character that I debated on putting in Slytherin. But whenever I think about Delos, the same scenes from the book come to my mind. First, is when Maggie is in the dungeons and Delos comes to visit her and the second is when Delos convinces Sylvia to remove the charm on his arm so he can use his powers to destroy Hunter. I think this is the purest insight we get at Delos's character. True, he did place Maggie in the dungeons on his own merit because he wanted something from her, but he was scared. Scared for Maggie and just frightened because of all the pressure Hunter was putting on him. I think if Black Dawn had been in Delos's point of view at least once after they met, we would have a completely different perspective of Delos. So I'm giving him the benefit of the doubt. Gryffindor.
(I would place Miles and Sylvia, but that would take too much going back and character studying. I honestly don't feel like putting in that much effort for secondary characters.)
Witchlight
-o-
Raksha Keller
Keller, Keller, Keller. Such a guarded character. Should she be in Gryffindor? Where dwell the brave at heart? Or Slytherin? Where those cunning folk will use any means to achieve their ends? Ravenclaw? Where those of wit and learning will always find their kind? My choice might surprise you. Ravenclaw- "Or yet in wise old Ravenclaw/If you're a ready mind/Where those of wit and learning/ Will always find their kind" Keller is a guarded character. She thinks with her head and assesses situations before going in. She's cool and in command. She's knows what's best for her as well as the world. She's extremely independent and self-sufficient and can do anything you ask her too. As long as you're her boss. She only works for CD because she knows she doesn't have anywhere else, and it clears her conscious of owing a debt later on. At least until she meets Galen.

Galen Drache
Gryffindor- "Where dwell the brave at heart/ Their daring nerve and chivalry/ Set Gryffindors apart"
Come on, don't say you're surprised. Galen is a freaking prince after all. He's kind and loyal, brave and is probably the biggest gentleman in the entire series. I would love to go into more depth with this, but I can't really. This just fits Galen. At least I think. Gah, I love him so much!
-o-
Iliana Harman
Hufflepuff- "Those patient Hufflepuffs are true and unafraid of toil."
I would love to put Iliana in Gryffindor, just to shut all those Iliana haters up. In the beginning of Witchlight she's under a tremendous amount of shock, she's in denial, but she handles it with more grace than—let's face it—most of us would. She's a genuinely kind character and she honestly cares about people! She's not a poser or a fake and I think we have to give her credit for that! So what if she's not a fighter or amazingly intuitive like LJ's other characters? It's okay to be sensitive and of average intelligence! And can anybody doubt at the end of Witchlight she should've gotten a little more credit than we give her? So I'm putting Iliana in Hufflepuff, not because she's 'not a fighter' and not an Einstein, but because she's brave in her own way, loyal, and open-minded.
