Perhaps Merlin saves little Harry Potter by disguising him. He could use a powerful glamour spell to make Harry look like an ordinary Muggle baby. Then he places Harry with a loving Muggle family far away from the wizarding world. But as Harry grows up, he starts to show signs of his true magical nature, and Merlin has to come back to guide him and reveal his true identity.
One idea could be that Merlin uses his ancient magic to shield Harry Potter from Voldemort's attacks when he was just a baby. Maybe he creates a magical barrier around the Potter's house that not even the Dark Lord can penetrate. This would be a great twist on the original story as it brings in a whole new element of magic from a different magical realm.
One idea could be that Merlin, with all his ancient magic knowledge, reincarnated as Harry Potter would be able to quickly master spells at Hogwarts. He might even introduce some long - lost magic that was known in his previous life. For example, he could have a unique way of handling potions that was based on his experiences in Camelot.
Merlin could save Harry by teaching his parents some super - powerful protective spells. In the fanfiction, he might have been a secret mentor to James and Lily Potter. He could have passed on some of his most potent magic, which they then use to safeguard Harry. So when Voldemort arrives, the spells are strong enough to not only protect Harry but also to weaken Voldemort significantly.
Yes, there are likely some fanfictions out there with this concept. The idea of Merlin reincarnating as Harry Potter combines two very popular magical universes. It allows for a lot of interesting plot twists and character development. Writers might explore how Merlin's ancient magic and knowledge would manifest in the modern world of Harry Potter, and how it could change the course of the story we know.
One idea could be that Merlin somehow gets transported to the Harry Potter universe. He could use his magic, which is different from the wizarding magic in Harry Potter, to solve some of the mysteries or problems there. Maybe he teams up with Harry and helps him defeat Voldemort in a unique way, like using his ancient magic knowledge.
One interesting idea could be how the magic from Merlin's time influences the wizarding world in Harry Potter. Maybe there are ancient spells or magical artifacts passed down through Merlin's inheritance that play a crucial role in the fight against Voldemort.
One idea could be a crossover where Harry Potter, through some magical mishap, gets transported to the time of Merlin and Morgana le Fay. He could find himself in the middle of their power struggle, and his modern magic knowledge might either help or hinder the situation. For example, his knowledge of defensive spells could be useful against Morgana's dark magic attacks, but his lack of understanding of the ancient magic rules could also get him into trouble.
Yes, in a sense. There are some elements in 'Harry Potter' that can be seen as having similarities to the concept of Merlin. For example, both deal with magic and the idea of a special destiny for the main characters. However, 'Harry Potter' is also a very unique and complex world of its own with its own set of rules, characters, and storylines that go far beyond just being a simple fanfiction of Merlin.
Merlin in Harry Potter fanfiction can have various roles. He could be a mentor figure who exists in a sort of magical afterlife and imparts wisdom to the modern - day wizards like Harry. He might also be part of some long - forgotten prophecy or magical lineage that ties into the main plot of the fan - made story. For example, he could be the key to unlocking a new and powerful form of magic that the characters need to defeat a new dark force.
One idea could be that Harry discovers a new and ancient magic that is the key to defeating a previously unknown dark force. For example, he might find a hidden spell in a long - forgotten book in the Room of Requirement.
One idea could be that Merlin uses his magic to help Harry Potter in his fight against Voldemort. Maybe Merlin's ancient magic knowledge gives Harry an edge in finding Horcruxes. Another could be that the characters from the two universes meet at Hogwarts, like Merlin being a special guest lecturer, sharing his experiences of magic in a different era.
