Founders and Caves

Yes, I'm a big huge fan of the four founders in Harry Potter even though there is next to zilch about them. Maybe that's what makes it FUN! Anyway, their appearances are based on how I characterize them in my fanfics, so there may be differences with other fanon!ideas. E.g. In my stories, Salazar has Egyptian blood (many, many generations ago however), accounting for his slightly darken skin. With the exception of Salazar, I haven’t quite set on the hair/eye color of the other founders. Anyway, I doodled this in class while thinking of some adventure these four are having. I decided to put it up because I realized I had a distinct lack of founders fanart. So here they are!

Godric needs to retrieve a magical heirloom, long lost during an epic battle with a powerful and evil lich; whether the monster still lives the four do not know...

Godric froze, signaling the others to stop. Amber eyes squinted in the dim green light, desperately scanning the shadowy rocks. “I thought I heard something…”

“Rats probably,” Salazar replied in a bored voice.

“This place is not called Echoing Cave for nothing Godric,” Rowena’s gentle voice intervened.

Slowly, he shook his head. “No… it was no echo. Something… Something is alive down here,”
