As you finally reach the Seventh Floor of the Grand Staircase, you approach a rather interesting portrait. The woman is very fat and is wearing a slightly pink silk dress. She smiles at you, and suddenly barks, "What's the password?"
You hesitate for a moment, then you remember:
"Flibbertigibbet," you answer confidently.
The Fat Lady nods and her portrait swings open to reveal a circular portrait hole for you to enter. You do and, upon exiting this hole, you are suddenly faced with a room that is also circular in structure. You are now in the Gryffindor Common Room, found in the Gryffindor Tower. Everything in the room is colored scarlet and gold. These are the colors of Gryffindor. There is one window which looks out over the grounds of Hogwarts, and a large fireplace stretches across one of the walls.
There are two archways beside each other on the same wall; each archway has its own staircase. The staircase on the left spirals up to the girls dormitories. The staircase on the right spirals up to the boys dormitories. Girls are allowed into the boys' dorms, but boys' are not allowed in the girls' dorms. If they attempt to do so, the staircase will turn into a slide, forcing the boy to slide back down into the Common Room.
There is also a bulletin board which students may post announcements, report lost items, school notices, ads, and etc. upon.
Please be sure to keep your password hidden and safe so that you're not locked out!
