Revision as of 09:26, 8 July 2009

Passwords are used throughout Hogwarts Castle to restrict entry to certain areas such as house common rooms and teacher offices. The inspirations for these passwords come from specific events and experiences throughout the storyline. Passwords appear to change on a frequent basis.

During Sir Cadogan's period of guarding the Gryffindor common room, he changed passwords so frequently that Neville Longbottom had to write them down. This list was snatched by Crookshanks and was given to Sirius Black/Padfoot, allowing him entrance.
