Umbridge's Luddite nature could be shown through her strict opposition to any new or non - traditional magic at Hogwarts. For example, if a student were to introduce a new spell that made studying easier, she would immediately ban it, citing it as against the 'old ways' of magic.
In fanfiction, Umbridge's Luddite nature could be evident in her dress code enforcement. She might view modern - style wizarding robes as a sign of 'degeneration' and force students to wear the most traditional and uncomfortable robes. Also, she could oppose any new spells or incantations that deviate from the ones in the ancient magic textbooks. This would not only show her Luddite side but also create a lot of tension between her and the more progressive students and teachers at Hogwarts.
One plot idea could be that Umbridge tries to ban all magical technology in Hogwarts under the guise of it being 'dangerous' in her Luddite ways. This could lead to chaos as students rely on things like magic quills that record lectures and enchanted maps. Another could be that she forms a secret society within the school of like - minded Luddites, and they start to sabotage magical inventions.
His military - like nature could be shown through his strict discipline. For example, in a fanfic, he might enforce a strict schedule on the family, which could be a source of conflict with Harry's magical activities. He could also be portrayed as having a very hierarchical view of things, like a military chain of command, which could lead to interesting interactions with the wizarding world's more egalitarian nature.
It can be shown through his actions. For example, he could be constantly found in the Hogwarts gardens, tending to the plants. He might talk to the plants and they seem to respond to him in some way. Another way is his reaction to natural disasters in the wizarding world. He could be the first one to try and help, using his magic to heal the damaged nature.
She's often portrayed as extremely cruel. She uses her position of power at Hogwarts to make Harry's life miserable. For example, she might give him excessive detentions with the blood - quill, just like in the original books. And she'll try to isolate him from his friends and undermine his credibility among the students and teachers.
She'd be appalled. Umbridge is all about following the rules and maintaining the status quo. Fanfiction doesn't adhere to the official canon she so firmly believes in.
Harry's character would face a huge transformation. He'd be constantly on edge, having to deal with Umbridge's strict rules and her mean - spirited nature. This would make him more empathetic towards those who are oppressed. He'd also become more resourceful, finding ways to communicate with his old friends and allies despite Umbridge's attempts to isolate him. His experience with Umbridge would be a crucible that forges him into an even more resilient and determined hero, ready to take on not only Voldemort but also the corrupt elements within the wizarding establishment.
She would probably be outraged. Umbridge is a strict and conservative character in the original series. Fanfiction often contains ideas that deviate from the 'canon' she adheres to, and she might see it as a threat to the 'proper' understanding of the wizarding world she believes in.
The story would probably see a big change in the power dynamics at Hogwarts. Harry would use his power to protect the students from any more harm that Umbridge - like policies might cause.
She'd be disgusted. Umbridge is all about propriety and order. Fanfiction can be wild and creative, which is the opposite of what she stands for.
Well, in a lot of fan fictions, Dumbledore's manipulative side shows through his interactions with Harry. He might be shown as guiding Harry in a certain direction without really giving him a choice. For instance, in some stories, Dumbledore arranges situations where Harry has no option but to follow a particular path that Dumbledore has set.
