Wolfblood Legacy by moonterra

Summary:

Born to Fenrir—the colossal wolf son of Loki the giant trickster—and a mysterious priestess of Hel, Harry's origins are woven from ancient myth and cosmic power. His earliest years are spent wandering the frozen, wild expanse of Jotunheim, the giant realm where his grandfather Loki was born and still holds influence. From there, Harry moves to the shimmering halls of Asgard, where Loki, ever the master of mischief and cunning, takes him under his wing. Under Loki's tutelage, Harry learns the art of deception, shape-shifting, and the manipulation of ancient magic that defies mortal understanding. Yet even among gods and giants, Harry's wolfblood heritage marks him as other—part beast, part divine, and part human. His mother's connection to Helheim, the realm of the dead, adds shadows to his bloodline, granting him the chilling ability to walk between worlds of the living and the dead.

Despite this extraordinary upbringing, Harry's fate is tied to the mortal realm. When he is sent to Hogwarts, the famed school of witchcraft and wizardry, he finds himself an outsider in a world bound by rules and traditions far removed from the gods' politics and giant struggles. His powers clash with wizarding magic, his nature misunderstood and feared by classmates and teachers alike. Harry must navigate this complex web of identities—son of Fenrir, grandson of Loki, heir to Hel's priestess—and find a way to balance his wild, divine blood with the human heart beating inside him. As ancient forces stir, and tensions between realms threaten to spill into the mortal world, Harry's journey becomes not just one of survival, but of self-discovery and defiance against the fate others would impose on him.

Requirements:

Include scenes or backstory elements showing Harry's life in Jotunheim (giant realm), Asgard (god realm), and Helheim (realm of the dead). Portray the cultural, magical, and social differences of these realms and how Harry adapts.

Weave in rising tensions between the Norse realms and the mortal wizarding world, creating external conflicts that forces Harry to choose alliances or forge new paths.

Keep the story grounded in personal choice and character-driven conflict, avoiding prophetic destiny or "chosen one" tropes.

Harry must inherit 25% Frost Giant via his father Fenrir who carries that Frost Giant blood from Loki.

Present the Potters as guardians, foster parents, or protectors — not his true parents. They care for him and raise him, but they never adopted him magically, legally, or by blood. He does not carry the Potter name, possesses no connection to their legacy or magic, and is not heir to any Potter rights, bloodline, or family protections. They are caretakers only, acting under obligation, request, or circumstance — not as true family.

Neville is the Boy-Who-Lived.

Harry must be raised in one of the Eight Realms other than Midgard (the mortal world). His upbringing should reflect the unique cultural, magical, and environmental aspects of that realm—whether it's the frost giants' harsh wilderness of Jotunheim, the divine courts of Asgard, or the shadowy mysteries of Helheim.

Harry must return to Hogwarts (Midgard) sometime between Second and Fourth Year — not earlier, not later. He may skip First Year entirely. His return can be voluntary or forced (e.g., summoned, bound by oath, chosen by prophecy, etc.), but the return must fall within that window.

Snape must serve Harry in one of two capacities:

• As a slave, bound by a powerful magical oath or binding (enhanced by Norse magic), compelled to obey and serve regardless of his own will; or
• As a guardian, charged with protecting and guiding Harry, possibly under similar magical obligation, but retaining more autonomy and responsibility.

Possible ice-related abilities Harry might have:

• Frost manipulation: Creating and controlling ice and snow, conjuring ice shards or frost storms.
• Cold resistance: Immunity or high tolerance to extreme cold environments.
• Freezing touch or breath: Ability to freeze objects or enemies on contact or with a breath weapon.
• Ice illusions: Using ice and frost to create shimmering, shifting illusions (tying into Loki's trickster magic).
• Shapeshifting enhanced by frost: Maybe Harry can shift into a wolf form with icy fur or frost-covered claws, enhancing his wolfblood powers.
• Aura of chill: A subtle cold aura that can slow opponents or sap warmth from the environment.

Possible Names (First or Middle):

• Eirik / Eiríkr — "Ever ruler" or "eternal ruler," common in Norse myth and royal sagas, suggesting strength and legacy.
• Fenris / Fenrir — Directly referencing his father's name, but as a given name to honor lineage.
• Hrafn — Means "raven," a bird often associated with Odin, death, and prophecy—symbolic of mystery and wisdom.
• Sköll — The wolf who chases the sun in Norse myth, connecting to his wolfblood heritage.
• Mørkr (pronounced "Murk") — Meaning "darkness," perfect for a child born of Hel's priestess.
• Leifr — Meaning "heir" or "descendant," emphasizing his role in the lineage.
• Dagr — Meaning "day," representing hope or light despite darkness in his heritage.
• Járn — Meaning "iron," symbolizing strength and resilience.
• Sól — Meaning "sun," a contrast name highlighting duality (dark mother, bright potential).
• Vetur — Meaning "winter," evocative of Helheim's cold realm.
