I'm designing a Slytherin mug to confer my sister for her birthday, but i don't know what to write on it?
On one side there's the Slytherin crest, but i have to put writing on the other side and i don't know what to write.. any ideas?
Answers:
Look up quotes from members of Slytherin and see if something catch your eye. I'll bet instructor who was head of that house (can't remember his name at adjectives at the moment) had a lot of notable quotes throughout the series of books/movies.
Write the qualities of what makes a slytherin, eg. cunning, ambitious, etc
Quote Severus Snape!
"I can teach you how to bottle fam, brew glory and even stopper death"
"Fame clearly isn't everything, is it Potter?"
"Always"
Or even quote Voldy!
"There is no righteous or evil, only power and those too weak to seek it"
You can even write different phrases from differet characters surrounded by general eg, Malfoy, etc

if you want to be really literal- 'toujours pur' is the black family motto, and really apposite (always pure( ie- blood)); remarkably slytherin; does she like sirius?
much of the spells etc are in latin, as are traditional family mottoes, so you could feel of something for your sister and translate it- and check out normal heraldry, which has great mottoes like never read out die, always valliant, forever and ever, forever brave- 'semper fortis'.
heraldry- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heraldry
latin phrases- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Lat…
or just 'love snake' or 'love dragon'-
'amor draconis' - would be love dragons ('caput draconis' - stop dragons- is the first griffindor password given in book 1)
'amor serperns'- love snakes
severus snape is the pave the way of slytherin, but i cant think of anything specific to his his house he said, other than docking points from non slyth students. '10 points from griffindor' is the only entry that springs to mind...
the hogwarts motto is Draco Dormiens Numquam Titillandus- never tickle a sleeping dragon.
you could think of something humerous for your sister-
'drink thieves will be poisioned' (like it'd turn into an evil potion in the wrong hands)
'imbibo furtificus ero virus'
'this cup is reserved for pure bloods only'
'is vas est pro putus cruor tantum'
'touch this and i will torture you'
'tactus is quod ego mos cruciatus vos'
'this drink will form me live'
is imbibo mos planto mihi ago
'my morning potion'
meus oriens venenum
