DC Universe gave an oddball entry into the superheroes of the screen when they added Doom Patrol to their streaming site. The eclectic group of characters all suffered “accidents” in their lives that allowed them to end up with superhuman abilities.

Those abilities weren’t exactly magic, but being confined to Niles Calder’s mansion might make it seem like the Doom Patrol attends their own version of Hogwarts anyway. Harry Potter probably would have welcomed the group to Hogwarts and invited them to join Dumbledore’s Army given the chance ⁠— they wouldn’t have all ended up in Gryffindor like him.

Cliff Steele: Gryffindor

Gryffindors are traditionally hero types, or the “good guys” in a story. Cliff breaks that mold a little bit. He’s not a great guy when his story begins. As someone who cheated on his wife, let the spotlight get to his head, and wasn’t really there for his daughter, Cliff doesn’t seem like a Gryffindor. The truth is, however, that all of those events line up.

Gryffindors love the spotlight. They aren’t just heroes; they’re showoffs. Gryffindors have a very black and white sense of morality — except when it applies to them and they can justify their own amoral behaviors. They also like to jump to emotional conclusions. In short, Gryffindors think with their hearts instead of their heads. Cliff fits right in, even when he’s not trying to be the hero.

Larry Trainor: Hufflepuff

Larry spends so much of his life trying to fit in, is it any wonder the Sorting Hat would place him in Hufflepuff?

The "perfect" family man, no one ever suspects that Larry is a closeted gay man. He cares more about appearance and the happiness of his family than he does about himself. The fact that he’s a soldier who follows orders only leans more into his Hufflepuff traits. His loyalty as a soldier becomes loyalty to Rita once he’s betrayed by the military and introduced to Doom Patrol. Larry just wants to belong.

Rita Farr: Slytherin

Once a legend of the silver screen, Rita was all about making her star shine as brightly as possible for as long as possible. As a member of the Doom Patrol, her priorities are slightly different.

Because Rita was so obsessed with her image and stature, her pre-Doom Patrol days definitely make her a Slytherin. She was willing to stay in the good graces of a casting agent by bringing him young, impressionable actresses to do with as he pleased. Once she has her “accident” and her body becomes more elastic, she’s more obsessed with her looks than ever. She’s also got a healthy sense of self-preservation, so despite her kinder heart in the modern day, she’s still a Slytherin.

Steve Larson: Slytherin

Fans might not recognize the name Steve Larson right away from the DC Universe streaming series. They might remember him if they think about the one character who showed up in a handful of episodes to have a background arc turning him into a villain.

Eventually known as Animal-Vegetable-Mineral Man, Steve went to South America to be transformed. He wanted to leave his ordinary life behind and gain more power, which he did, though maybe not in the way he expected. With his body becoming part-dinosaur and part-vegetable material, he turned to a life of crime. That ambition — and his attempt at maintaining a new law-breaking lifestyle — makes him a Slytherin.

Silas Stone: Ravenclaw

Though Silas Stone is a big part of his son’s confusion about what happened to him, Silas didn’t intentionally manipulate Victor into becoming Cyborg. Silas did his best to save his son’s life in the only way he knew how.

The scientist was heavy into technological development before Victor was seriously injured. His experimentation and need to see how things work is what allowed him to save his son’s life. Silas really couldn’t be anything other than a Ravenclaw.

Danny The Street: Hufflepuff

It might be difficult to get a Sorting Hat on a sentient street, but Danny is such an important character in the first season of Doom Patrol that he can’t be left out.

A street that gathers up misfits and travels to new places to keep them safe is something anyone who has ever felt like an outsider would love. Danny is powered by the happiness of the people who live on his property. Their happiness feeds his happiness and allows him to help more people. His need to protect people and allow them to be themselves is all Hufflepuff.

Jane: Hatstall

Crazy Jane In Doom Patrol Hogwarts Sorting Hat

Jane is the dominant personality for a young woman named Kay. Kay stays hidden in the refuge of the Underground in her own mind, so it’s Jane who is most often in the driver’s seat.

Jane isn’t always the one in charge of the body she inhabits, which is why this Sorting Hat would likely be a Hatstall. Hammerhead and Flit would be Gryffindors while Dr. Harrison and Karen would be Slytherins. The many different personalities and motivations tied up in Jane’s brain would likely confuse the Sorting Hat.

If forced to choose, Jane’s protective instinct would land her in Hufflepuff. Her primary drive is to protect Kay and the other splinter personalities in the Underground, so that would certainly be the most likely option if she, or the Sorting Hat, had to settle on one house.

Victor Stone: Gryffindor

Victor is a pretty smart guy and he adapts very quickly to all of his Cyborg hardware. He’s also comfortable in detective mode. All of that sounds pretty Ravenclaw, but that’s not quite the right fit for him.

Instead, Victor is used to being the center of attention and the playmaker. He wants to be the hero. In fact, Victor doesn’t know how to be anything other than be a hero, though he doesn’t always go about it in a way that works. His stubborn streak, his moral fiber, and his heroic deeds get him sorted into Gryffindor.

Eric Morden: Slytherin

Mr Nobody Doom Patrol Slytherin

The primary antagonist of the series is Mr. Nobody, but before he picked up that moniker, he was Eric Morden. When a member of a supervillain team told him would always be a “nobody,” Eric decided to change that. 

Eric’s desire to be remembered, to be the guy in charge of the plan, and to be the most feared person on the planet, is what led to him becoming Mr. Nobody. He was willing to participate in any kind of nefarious experimentation to achieve his ambition. That willingness to go all the way just to serve your own needs is absolutely Slytherin.

Niles Calder: Slytherin

There’s no denying that the Chief is a genius. He certainly pulled off some daring feats of intelligence over his lifetime. However, his intelligence isn’t entirely what motivates him. Instead, it’s the power he derives from his intelligence that drives him. 

Niles chooses to do whatever he wants, whenever he wants, to manipulate events and people to play out in a way that suits him. The final reveal in Season 1 that he put all of the events in motion for the Doom Patrol to end up with their different abilities — and in his care — solidifies his placement in Slytherin.
