This conflict between worlds and the likely neglect at home made him introverted and resentful. He was economically disadvantaged, something that probably made him even more isolated compared to students from traditional, wealthy families, such as the Malfoys. Hogwarts, during Snape's youth, was a highly divided school, especially between the Gryffindor and Slytherin students. He was sorted into Slytherin, which already had a reputation for housing wizards with elitist tendencies, ambitions and affinity for dark magic. The rivalry between Slytherin and Gryffindor exacerbated their animosity in relation to James Potter and the other Marauders. Snape was a constant target of bullying by the Marauders (James Potter, Sirius Black, Remus Lupin and Peter Pettigrew), especially by James and Sirius, who publicly humiliated him. In addition to bullying, he faced prejudice due to his unkempt appearance, humble origins and introverted behavior, which made him even more isolated. Snape's youth was marked by a search for acceptance and power in a world where he often felt marginalized. He was an intelligent and ambitious young man, but emotionally vulnerable, He was an intelligent and ambitious young man, but emotionally vulnerable, struggling to find their place in a hostile and prejudiced environment.

Fascination with the Dark Arts

Snape was an incredibly talented and curious wizard, especially in potions and advanced spells.
