Summary: The Ministry of Magic, for any reason you like, hold a census of the entire British magical community.

This could be a one-off for some reason, or something they do regularly.

In addition to supplying information, each wizard (or whatever) is required to supply a DNA sample in order to check accuracy of information ...

Can be set anywhere in canon. No Dumbledore bashing, no slash. AUs welcome.

Summary: I know stories where Harry is loved by the Dursleys (or at least one of them) exist. Here's something I think will be different.

Dudley Dursley does not exist--Vernon and Petunia do not have (or can't have) children. When Harry shows up, they decide to adopt him properly--he grows up thinking they're really his parents.

Like with Dudley, they shower him with everything he wants--toys, kisses, food--but if anything 'freaky' happens, he's punished just as severely as canon Harry--or more so, up to you.

So we have a Harry who's been alternately spoiled and abused, on his eleventh (or before if you want) discovering his parents aren't even his parents and lied to him his whole life ...

Then what?

Snape can come into it any way you choose. Harry could end up living with him or with someone else with Snape still a main character. Perhaps someone at Hogwarts (like Madam Pomfrey) decides Harry needs to lose weight and Snape's put in charge of making sure he does so. Harry could even choose to stay living with the Dursleys and Snape come to see why he's not coming to Hogwarts ... up to you.

No Horcruxes, no Hallows, no Dumbledore bashing, no slash. Harry can be characterised any way you think fits his upbringing. I'd prefer Harry to still be a Gryffindor, but that's not a requirement.

Have fun!
