Daphne Greengrass: The Ice Queen of Slytherin
The Blank-Slate Pureblood Heiress, Haphne Lore & Malfoid's Canonical Slytherin Foil
Daphne Greengrass is one of the most remarkable creative phenomena in fanfiction history: a character mentioned only once during an O.W.L. exam in canon, whom fans transformed into "The Ice Queen of Slytherin"—an untouchable, blonde aristocrat whose frosty demeanor conceals sharp political acumen and secret warmth. In the Malfoid universe, she reigns as Draconia's calculating kuudere confidante and high-society foil.
