Hengist of Woodcroft was a Medieval English wizard, best known as the founder of the village of Hogsmeade in Scotland, the only all-wizarding village in Great Britain. He was immortalised on a Chocolate Frog Card.

Biography
Hengist was born in the Middle Ages, circa 987,[1] in Woodcroft, Gloucestershire. In his youth, Hengist attended Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, where he was Sorted into Hufflepuff.[2] He may have been taught by Helga Hufflepuff herself.
Hengist was traditionally credited with the founding of the village of Hogsmeade after being driven from his home by Muggle persecutors. According to popular lore, Hengist used the Three Broomsticks Inn as a home.[3]
Hengist died at some point during the Middle Ages. Remembered for his founding of Hogsmeade, he was immortalised in a Chocolate Frog Card[3] Hengist of Woodcroft's Chocolate Frog Card was one of the very first collected by Harry Potter.[4] There was a bust of Hengist on the fourth-floor corridor of the Hogwarts Castle.[5] There was also a statue of Hengist in Hogsmeade by the 1890s.[6]
On 1 September, 1991, Prefect Gabriel Truman welcomed Hufflepuff first-year students to the Hufflepuff Basement with a short speech in which he mentioned Hengist of Woodcroft as one of the many notable Hogwarts students who had been sorted, like them, into Hufflepuff.[2]
