Hogwarts Legacy Introduces Harry Potter Series’ First Transgender Character

Hogwarts Legacy introduces the Harry Potter series’ first transgender character, with the Three Broomsticks’ Sirona Ryan marking the first time that a trans character has appeared in any official works related to the Wizarding World.

This is of particular note considering Harry Potter author J.K. Rowling’s frequent controversial comments on the transgender community, which have attracted a lot of criticism from trans individuals and allies.

Who is Sirona Ryan, Hogwarts Legacy’s trans character?

Sirona Ryan is the proprietress of the Three Broomsticks, a pub located in the game’s Hogsmeade village. The player-character interacts with her during a mission with a goblin named Lodgok, who is friends with her.

During the quest, Sirona explains how Lodgok has always been kind to her, explaining how even when her classmates took time to “to realize I was actually a witch,” Lodgok recognized her identity immediately even after years apart.

After the player-character asks Sirona about her bond with Lodgok, she replies:

“Hadn’t seen him in years when he came in a few months ago. But, he recognized me instantly. Which is more than I can say for some of my own classmates. Took them a second to realize I was actually a witch, not a wizard.”

No voice actress is officially listed as being attached to the role in any public materials, with the game’s end credits providing a list of voiceover talent without including their specific roles in the game. We have reached out to Warner Bros. for further clarification.
