I really like 'The Dark Lord's Son: A New Path for Harry'. In this fanfic, Harry is raised by the Dark Lord's followers after Voldemort's victory. It shows a completely different Hogwarts, full of dark magic teachings. The story is full of twists and turns as Harry starts to question the world he's living in.
There's also 'Harry, Son of the Dark Lord: Redemption'. Here, Harry is the son of Voldemort but he has a strong sense of justice. He tries to atone for the sins of his father. The fanfic delves deep into the themes of family, redemption, and the power of choice.
One popular 'Harry Potter' fanfic about the next Dark Lord could be 'The Heir of Darkness'. It presents a really interesting scenario where a new dark force rises in the wizarding world long after Voldemort's fall. The character development is quite good, especially of the new 'Dark Lord' - who has motives that are a mix of personal vendetta and a twisted view of the wizarding hierarchy.
One great 'Dark Wizard Harry Potter' fanfic is 'The Dark Lord's Heir'. In this story, Harry discovers a hidden heritage that ties him to the dark side in unexpected ways. It has a really interesting plot that twists the original story's elements. Another one is 'Harry Potter and the Dark Arts Reborn' which delves deep into the dark magic that Harry starts to explore, creating a more morally ambiguous world compared to the original books.
The idea of Harry being the son of the Dark Lord is a huge deviation from the original story, which makes it very exciting. It allows for new character dynamics and plot developments. For example, how would the wizarding world react if they knew? And how would Harry deal with his new identity?
The teachers at Hogwarts, like Dumbledore (if he were still alive in the fanfic), would be deeply concerned. Dumbledore always saw great potential in Harry for good. He would probably try to understand what led Harry to this path and would use all his wisdom and magic to try and turn Harry back. The other teachers would also be on high alert, fearing for the safety of the students and the future of the wizarding world.
One great 'Dark Lord Harry Time Travel' fanfiction is 'Harry Potter and the Time - Twisted Future'. In this story, Harry travels back in time and somehow gets entwined with the path to becoming a dark lord. It's a fascinating read as it explores a different side of Harry's character. Another one is 'Time - Traveling Dark Harry's Ascent' which shows how Harry's time - traveling experiences gradually lead him towards a darker path with really interesting plot twists.
One great fanfic in this category is 'The Dark Alliance'. It explores a complex relationship between Voldemort and a darker version of Harry Potter. The story is filled with intense power struggles and moral dilemmas.
One great 'Dark Beautiful' Harry Potter fanfiction is 'The Black Queen' where the author creates a darker, more complex Hogwarts world. It has a unique take on the characters, especially Harry, who has a more brooding and mysterious side. The story is filled with beautiful descriptions of the magic and the dark corners of the wizarding world.
There may be a dark secret about a character's family in fanfic. For example, Harry Potter might discover that his parents had a dark side or were involved in something very dangerous before they died. This could completely change his perception of his family and add a new layer of complexity to his character.
One great female Harry Potter Lord of the Rings fanfiction is 'The Magical Quest'. It combines the magic elements from Harry Potter and the epic adventure feel of Lord of the Rings. The story follows a female character who discovers she has the powers of both worlds and has to go on a journey to save both magical realms. It's really exciting and full of unexpected twists.
Well, in 'Dark Lord Harry Potter fanfic', the most obvious change is Harry's alignment. Instead of being the hero, he becomes the villain or at least an anti - hero. This completely flips the moral compass of the story.
