What are some common plot points in 'Harry is a Death Eater' fanfiction?

One common theme is the struggle for identity. Fem Harry is often caught between her old self and the new identity she's taking on as a Death Eater. Another theme is power. How she gains, wields, or is corrupted by power within the Death Eater hierarchy.

Another important theme is the exploration of the grey area between good and evil. In the original Harry Potter series, the divide between the good guys and the Death Eaters (the bad guys) is quite clear. But in fanfiction, authors often like to explore that middle ground. They show that not all Death Eaters may be completely evil, and Harry may have to make difficult decisions about who to trust and what is truly right or wrong in a more complex moral landscape that includes the Death Eaters.

Well, there's the theme of secrecy. Since the Death Eaters operate in the shadows, a lot of fanfictions play with the idea of hidden identities and secret agendas. Another common one is the theme of family. Some Death Eaters have family members who may or may not support their actions. And of course, the theme of good vs evil is always present, as the Death Eaters are on the 'evil' side in the wizarding world.

Well, in some 'James Potter Death Eater' fanfics, a really interesting plot point is how it affects the wizarding world as a whole. Since James was originally a key figure against the Dark Arts, his turn to the Death Eaters could change the power dynamics completely. There might be a plot where he has to face his own son, Harry, in a very different way than in the original story. Also, the fanfic might explore how his time as a Death Eater changes his personality, from a once - brave and carefree young wizard to a more conflicted and dark character.

Well, in some fanfics like this, one plot point could be Hermione's struggle against the Death Eater's control. She might use her intelligence to outwit them at every turn. Another could be her forming unexpected alliances within the dark ranks to try and subvert the system from within.

Well, the theme of moral ambiguity is quite prevalent. In 'Death Eater Harry fanfic', Harry is in a world where the lines between good and bad are blurred. He might be doing things that are considered wrong in the original series but in the context of the fanfic, it could be seen as a way to survive or achieve a greater good. There's also the theme of friendship. Harry's relationships with other characters, both new and old, are redefined as he becomes part of the Death Eater world.

One consequence could be a distortion of the characters' original identities. Harry is a symbol of good, and a Death Eater is a symbol of evil. This pairing would muddle the clear - cut moral lines in the original story. Another consequence might be that it offends fans who love the original series for its values. It could also give a wrong impression to new readers or fans of the fanfiction, leading them to misunderstand the essence of the Harry Potter universe.

One possible plot could be that Harry is manipulated by a powerful dark force. Maybe Voldemort manages to find a way to break Harry's spirit through a series of cruel and deceptive events. For example, Voldemort could use false visions to make Harry believe that the Order of the Phoenix has betrayed him. Then, Harry, feeling lost and angry, starts to be drawn to the Death Eaters' ideology which offers him a sense of power and belonging that he thinks he has lost on the 'good' side.

One interesting 'Harry Death Eater fanfiction' could be where Harry is secretly a double agent among the Death Eaters. He uses his position to gather information for the Order of Phoenix. Another might involve a Death Eater having a change of heart because of Harry's actions and trying to redeem themselves.

Common themes in Death Eater OC fanfiction include the struggle between good and evil. Even though they are Death Eaters, there's often a part of the OC that still has some goodness. Love is another theme, whether it's a forbidden love with someone on the opposite side or love within the Death Eater community. And of course, the theme of identity. The OC may be trying to figure out who they really are, especially when they are involved in such a dark and complex group like the Death Eaters.
