How does Neville Longbottom feature in fan fiction related to 'The Boy Who Lived'?

Some fanfictions make Neville OP by changing his backstory. Maybe he was secretly trained by a powerful wizard in his childhood, and this hidden training surfaces during his time at Hogwarts, allowing him to outperform his peers and take on challenges that would be impossible for the regular Neville. This gives him an edge and makes him an OP character in the fanfiction world.

Maybe it's a twist to explore Neville's potential and show a different outcome. It could be that the author wanted to give him a chance to shine and be the hero instead of Harry.

Perhaps it's to showcase Neville's growth and strength that was often overlooked in the original story. This fanfiction idea might aim to highlight that anyone can rise to the occasion and be a hero, not just the obvious choice like Harry.

Neville himself is obviously a main character. Often, Harry, Ron, and Hermione also play important roles as they are part of the main story in the Deathly Hallows. Luna Lovegood might also be included as she is a friend of Neville's. And of course, the villains like Voldemort and his Death Eaters are usually there to create the conflict.

Harry Potter is likely to be one of the main characters. He and Neville often interact in the original series, and in the fanfic, their relationship could be further developed. Hermione Granger could also be a main character. Her intelligence and knowledge of magic could play a role in whatever adventures or situations Neville gets into. Ron Weasley might be there too, adding his humor and loyalty to the group.

Well, it depends on the specific fanfiction. Some authors might play around with this idea for creative purposes, but it's not a mainstream plotline. Usually, Harry Potter is the default Boy Who Lived.

Well, if Neville was the 'Wrong Boy Who Lived', the entire magical world's perception of heroes and chosen ones would shift. It would also change how his character develops and how he interacts with others.

Once upon a time, Neville Longbottom, the brave Gryffindor, fell in love with a kind - hearted Hufflepuff girl named Hannah Abbott. They first met in Herbology class. Neville was showing his knowledge of plants, and Hannah was impressed. As time passed, they often studied together in the library. Neville would share his thoughts about his late grandmother with Hannah, and she would listen intently. Their relationship grew slowly but surely. Eventually, Neville plucked up the courage to ask Hannah to the Yule Ball, and she said yes. They danced the night away, and from that moment on, they were inseparable.

One interesting Neville Longbottom muscle - related fanfiction could be where Neville trains hard in secret to become a powerful wizard with physical strength as an added asset. Maybe he uses his newfound muscle and strength to stand up to bullies at Hogwarts in a more assertive way.

One way it could work is if Neville was a Slytherin due to a sorting error at first. Maybe the Sorting Hat initially misread his qualities. In the fanfiction, he could then struggle with the Slytherin ideals that are often misaligned with his Gryffindor - like traits in the original series. He might face prejudice from his housemates for being different. However, over time, he could start to show them that courage can exist in Slytherin too and he could even change some of their views.
