Flergs - Any chance for an Adventure: Snake Kit?
I’m hoping someone can help get this message to the inimitable Flergs...
I have been watching with bated breath as the Adventure House kit collection has been released, one by one. My family is filled with a slew of Potterheads, and between my stepsons and daughter, their spouses, their children, my nieces and nephews, and my husband and me, we proudly hail from all four of the Hogwarts houses. So I’ve been thrilled to see those House kits released and I’ve got plans to collect them all. But when the House Kit collection came out today and had the Adventure: Villains where House Slytherin should be, it made me think perhaps you’ve completed the set? Do you have plans to create an “Adventure: Snake” kit for House Slytherin? One that focuses on the positive traits of the house, like ambition, leadership, and resourcefulness? Without all the evil Death Eater Dark Mark stuff? If you don’t plan to put together a full kit, is there any chance you could do an add-on kit with some of those items, including the journaling card with the Hogwarts uniform in silver and green and the Slytherin crest, and some embellishments that are themed silver and green that mesh with the other three house kits? Thank you so much for considering my request! |

Just wanted to comment too that Flergs updated the Adventure: Villains kit to include the House robes and a crest in case you hadn't seen her social media post about it.

...but for my family members who sort into that house, when I want to create pages that honor them? This just isn't a good kit to use. There are good traits about Slytherins. They aren't all evil. I was just wondering if she had plans to either make a kit along those lines, or at least an add-on of supplemental elements. If the answer is yes, I'll wait patiently and save my monies to spend on the whole set because Flergs rocks! But if the answer is no, I guess I'll have to get started recoloring elements from the other kits and trying to create word strips that match as best I can. Thanks for trying to help! |

I would love a more pro-Slytherin add-on! My youngest is a Slytherin, and she totally embraces it, even though she's one of the sweetest, most thoughtful little girls you could meet.

I've never really thought of positive traits associated with Slytherin. I'd love to hear your thoughts! |

I was asked to create a Villains/Death Eater kit specifically originally. The other 3 houses only came about because people wanted them after this one came out.
Sorry that you feel it is all negative, there are elements inside that are just general Slytherin same as in the other 3 houses. I think the negative elements definitely do not make up the bulk of what is inside |

I don't feel her kit is negative at all and embraces the color/spirit of House Slytherin. I know a lot of us scrapped with the "negative" elements such as the Death Eaters, but there are a lot of other elements in the collection that aren't negative--it's how we choose to use the kit. Even in my layout, it's not all evil, as my daughter is decked out in her Slytherin pajamas on Christmas morning. I used that kit to scrap my Slytherin child and of all of the houses that I've scrapped, this is my favorite layout that I've created using this kit!

I did a general wizard page with the kit and found plenty to make a page that doesn't say villain at all. Her kits have loads of items to choose from generally so you can give it whatever appeal you are after. You could use the alphas to make the focus whatever words appeal most to you if they are not already in there. Just a thought.

Knowing the origin of the collection helps a lot. I originally saw it as kind of anti-Slytherin b/c the other houses are all titled by their mascots, while Slytherin is titled as "Villains." Knowing that it started from that concept and wasn't originally intended as a full collection of all four houses helps me understand why that's so.
Thank you for explaining! Quote:

That's definitely my favourite of all of the 4 kits. The greens and blacks are perfect. Love everything about it. Completely agree that there are lots of elements to choose from, but you might not notice that unless you've already purchased it. Go for it Angie, you won't regret it.

This would be a perfect kit for any Wicked fans out there too. I love all the greens and blacks. Now stop posting layouts before I have to go buy it. LOL It is on my wish list for sure. I have way too many HP kits in my stash so I am holding off for now.

I think it's one of the coolest kits that Flergs has done! I used it to document a fun memory of my son creating a skeleton for science class.

Omg Wendy is amazing.
Question: are you just hung up on the title? I ask, because in the collection, there are like 5 elements and one journal card that could be considered negative but the rest can absolutely be used to create a positive Slytherin page. You can create what you're going for with flergs kit absolutely. |

Hi, I was the one who requested a villain kit. FTR, I am a Slytherin and I can totally use this kit for me. Slytherin is the one that has more evil parts to it, it just is, embrace that part, too. I can tell you when I first sorted into Slytherin, I was mad. That's not me. I have learned to embrace it and even rock it (I wore Slytherin clothes at Universal) and that includes embracing the fact that it is overwhelmingly the house where the evil wizards come from.

I took the test several times because I refused to believe it! I finally talked to my daughter, who is a Slytherin and I've gained a lot of clarity about the house and the stigma associated with it. You are right, this is where the evil wizards came from, but there were also a lot of good wizards! |

My girls and I have all taken the test! But we have also "chosen" which house we want to belong in without regards to the test too! Most of us stuck with the house it chose for us, but it's just for fun, so I have told them to chose the house they feel the most "comfortable or connected" to. Noone is denied entry to any house! If you test as a Slytherin, but you like Ravenclaw....go ahead and embrace your Ravenclaw!

I'm Ravenclaw - by both sorting hat and choice
My kids are Gryffindor and Hufflepuff. The 2 that sort into Hufflepuff have both tested as Gryffindor as well on occasion, so while they mostly identify with Hufflepuff they go with the lion on some days depending on their mood and how adventurous they are feeling.

I think part of the reason we have bad feelings towards Slytherin, besides the snakes and the Death Eaters, is that in the movies, they were all, except the Malfoys, portrayed and big & dumb & ugly, which I don't think is very fair. Slytherins are ambitious and clever; Tom Riddle was handsome and charismatic. If they ever redo the movies, I hope that fix that.

I took the test years ago and was Slytherin. My son is Ravenclaw and my husband is Hufflepuff. I would have guessed both of theirs. I thought I would have been Ravenclaw, but have now totally embraced being Slytherin.

My kids decided I'm a Huffleclaw b/c I was sorted into Hufflepuff but have a lot of Ravenclaw characteristics, too, and we all expected that I would get Ravenclaw. I've definitely got a lot of Hufflepuff characteristics, too, though, so I embrace it, though we would have a completely balanced household if I ever decided to jump ship and go Ravenclaw, b/c my older daughter is a Hufflepuff, my younger is a Slytherin, and my husband got Gryffindor (though he's not a Potterhead, so he doesn't really care, but we made him take the test).
