"A History of Magic" Chapter 3

Godric Gryffindor hailed from a moor which is now known as Godric's Hollow a small West Country village. Gryffindor is said to have praised courage, determination and strength of heart above all other qualities. Indeed, he selected students for his house based upon their daring and bravery, according to the Sorting Hat. He also was the most in favor of allowing Muggle-borns into the school. He was initially a close friend of Salazar Slytherin, but over time their friendship deteriorated; though never stated, it is likely that the two's differing views on Muggle-borns may have been part of the reason for the split.

His relics are a Goblin made sword, engraved with rubies, and the sorting hat. The 2 items share a great bond. Whenever a "true" Gryffindor needs help, the sword will let itself out of the hat. The examples are as follows:

Albus Dumbledore used it to destroy Gaunt's ring,
Ron Weasley used it to eliminate Slytherin's locket,
Neville Longbottom used it to kill Nagini.
