Wizard Cards...Spoilers, I suppose, but more likely just research.

Evidently, JK approved all of the frog cards...
One I found interesting was Gunhilda of Gorsemoor, a healer with one 
eye and a hump... the statue of whom is Harry's escape to Hogsmeade 
for his weekends in POA, IMO.

Also, when reading the Helga Hufflepuff card, I began to think... 
could what house you're in have something to do with what type of 
magic  you excel at? I realize it isn't likely, but Dumbledore, 
McGonagall, the Marauder's, Hermione...all Gryffindor...all good at 
transfiguration. And the Slytherin's have a tendancy towards 
potions. And Hufflepuffs seem to slant towards charms: Flitwick, for 
one. And Helga's card says that she was "loved for her charming 
ways."

IMHO, Hogwarts is in Scotland, because Hogsmeade is.
"(Hengist of Woodcroft) reportedly settled in Scotland. There he 
started the village of Hogsmeade."

To answer my own question in a previous post:
(Merlin) created the Order of Merlin. The Order made rules against 
using magic on non-wizards. 

So, Peter Pettigrew was given the title of Order of Merlin because 
Black blew him up in the street? Oh, yes, that makes sense. Really.

I would also like to comment on the fact that the cards would 
specifically point out those wizards and witches born to non-magic 
parents... It seemed to be a big deal. It never seems to be in 
Hogwarts. Maybe it's one of those things that doesn't phase kids the 
way it does grown-ups.
