Summary: Blood Wards only require the use of blood, and then anyone with related blood will be protected. Snape knows this, because it needs a potion to set them up.

Summary: Snape is a little black bunny rabbit.

Summary: Harry's legs are cut off.

Summary: Harry is tricked, forced, co-erced, Imperiosed, or otherwise manipulated against his will into killing someone or someones, and NOT in any form of defence. (Not Voldemort, though it can still be a baddie.) As someone who has taken lives and knows guilt and remorse, Severus helps him deal with it, or at least tries to.

Harry must still be IN CHARACTER. The circumstances under which he would go through with it are up to you, but must be plausible. AUs would allow more flexibility with this, but are not necessary.

No upper limit on the number of people dead.

Harry can be ANY age at all.

The person(s) who forced Harry to do it must also be IN CHARACTER and could be any of the following:
- anyone from the Ministry who isn’t an Order member
- any Death Eater except Snape
- a minor character who doesn’t get much space in the books.

If you think of any possibilities that I haven’t come up with, feel free to message me and ask. No manipulative!/evil!Dumbledore.

To make things more interesting, the person responsible could be Polyjuiced as anyone you like.

Summary: The protection Lily gave her son before she died prevents anyone from harming him (with the intent to kill). But what if prolounged abuse by the Dursleys changes the protection until no one can touch him any more without burning up?

Summary: Imagine Petunia had treated Harry well instead of being an evil b****. Imagine she would've hidden the Wizarding World from Harry in an attempt to protect him from Voldemort. Harry and Dudley grew up as brothers, not one spoilt and the other neglected but equal and normal. What would happen when the Hogwarts letter arrives, delivered by none other than our loved Potions Master?

Suggestions
  • Harry has a place at Dudley's school and is excited to go there with him but when he realizes the truth about his parents' death and the Wizarding World he'd rather go to Hogwarts. But he feels like it would be a betrayal of Petunia and he doesn't want to be separated from Dudley for a whole school year.
  • Vernon could still be resentful about Harry taking Dudley's limelight, even though his family doesn't see it like that. In small gestures he would try to show Harry that he does not in fact consider him part of his family. So Harry would never see him as his father the way he sees his aunt as a mother.
  • Snape convinces the Dursleys to let Harry go to Hogwarts and promises to protect him from any harm.
  • Petunia remembers Snape and even though she does not like him, she knows he loved Lily and trusts him to take care of Harry - I would like to see a serious conversation between them, where Petunia makes Snape see Harry as his own person and not his parents' (not just James!) son alone.
  • If you make this story long I'd really like to see how Snape becomes a mentor and someone to look up to. He should be the father figure that Vernon refused to be for Harry. But as the Dursleys accept Harry, he would not adopt him.

    Bonus
  • If you don't vilify any of the Dursleys, including Vernon. It is entirely normal for some people to see a foster/adopted child as less deserving than their own flesh and blood, especially if you are only related to them through marriage. It makes Vernon ignorant, not evil.

  • Summary: PostHogwarts. Harry is a grown wizard when unexpectedly the Death Eaters gather together to have their revenge. Snape shows up unexpectedly alive to warn and protect Harry Potter and any family he may have. Just why does Snape think he needs protecting?
    [Report This]
    Summary: What if Voldemort’s most loyal supporters—the Lestranges and Crouch Jr—had never been caught?

    Must have:
    - At least one of the above characters plotting to bring back Voldemort.
    - The plan involves Harry.
    - Set pre-Hogwarts.
    - If kidnapping, a realistic way of getting around the wards.
    - Severus obviously interrupts/gets wind of/stumbles in on the plan somehow …

    Can’t have:
    - Slash
    - Character bashing
    - Manipulative/uncaring/not-very-nice!Dumbledore
    [Report This]
    Summary: Severus is made into Harry's slave by some means. Doesn't mean he has to accept it.
    [Report This]
    Summary: I would like for someone to write a story with Harry and Severus are brothers. You decide how they find out they are brothers and what age at which Harry is. I would like Harry to eventually go out with Oliver Wood it is not needed.
