Bilbo would likely be more fearless. Growing up with eagles, he'd be used to heights and danger. So, when facing the likes of Smaug, he might not be as timid as in the original story. He'd approach the dragon with more confidence.
He would also be more attuned to nature. Eagles have a deep connection to the natural world. Bilbo would inherit this, and it could show in how he interacts with the forests and mountains during his adventures. He might be able to communicate with other animals in a way normal hobbits can't.
A third plot could be Bilbo's struggle to fit in with both his eagle family and his hobbit heritage. He may feel torn between the two worlds. On one hand, he has the freedom and wildness of the eagles, but on the other, he has the comfort and homeliness of the hobbits. This internal conflict could drive the story forward as he tries to find his place in Middle - earth.
Bilbo might become more adventurous and less home - bound. His time - traveling experiences could make him bolder. For instance, he might be more willing to take risks in new situations. Aragorn, in contrast, could gain a deeper understanding of the long - term consequences of his actions. He would see how different choices in the past have led to the present situation in Middle - earth.
One way to develop Bilbo in this fanfiction is by exploring her femininity. She could bring a different set of skills or qualities. Maybe she has a better intuition or is more in tune with nature. As she goes on the adventure, she could use these qualities to her advantage, and this would not only help in the story's progression but also in her own development as a character. For example, her intuition could lead her to find hidden paths or sense danger in a different way than a male Bilbo would.
Naruto would likely be more confident. With the Sannin as his guardians, he'd have access to top - notch training and knowledge. He might not have the same insecurities as in the original series. For example, Tsunade could help him with his self - esteem, Jiraiya with his understanding of the ninja world, and Orochimaru (in a reformed way) with his knowledge of forbidden jutsu, making him a more well - rounded and confident shinobi.
His character would be more confident. Growing up with parents, he'd have that support system. He wouldn't be as desperate for attention as he was in the original. Instead of seeking validation through pranks, he'd get it from his family. His ninja skills would also develop more smoothly as he'd have Minato's direct training from an early age.
He would probably have a different view on magic. Crowley's knowledge of magic, which may be more on the dark side, would shape Harry's understanding. For example, he might be more willing to use magic for personal gain rather than for the greater good as he was taught in the original story. He could also be more proficient in some types of magic that are considered taboo in the normal wizarding world.
Percy would likely be more ruthless. Gaea's influence might make him less hesitant to use force or manipulation to get what he wants. For instance, he might not be as concerned about the well - being of mortals as he was in the original story.
Harry could be more distrustful of adults. Since he doesn't have a positive family figure in the orphanage, when he meets the wizarding world adults like Dumbledore, he might be more skeptical and less likely to blindly follow them. Also, his sense of loyalty might be more focused on the orphans he grew up with rather than just his Gryffindor housemates at first. He might have a harder time adjusting to the hierarchical and sometimes elitist nature of the wizarding world, coming from an environment where everyone was more or less on equal footing in terms of being an orphan.
Harry's character would develop in a more patient and self - assured way. Merlin's long - lived experience and his different approach to magic would shape Harry. Instead of the somewhat isolated and often confused boy in the original story, he would be more open - minded. He would be exposed to different magical cultures and ideas from Merlin, which would make him a more well - rounded wizard. He would also be more in tune with the ancient and hidden parts of magic, and this would give him a different kind of power and presence.
He might be more self - assured. Kushina's love and guidance would give him a stronger sense of self - worth. So instead of constantly seeking approval, he'd be more focused on his own growth.
