What are some interesting plot ideas for Harry Potter polyjuice potion fanfiction?

Well, perhaps a character uses the potion to turn into a teacher to change grades in order to get a friend out of academic trouble. They end up having to teach a class while in the teacher's form and hilarity ensues as they struggle to keep up with the subject matter. It could also lead to some self - discovery for the character about the challenges of teaching.

A possible plot is that Ginny accidentally drinks Polyjuice Potion that was meant for someone else. She transforms into an unknown person and gets lost in the wizarding world. Harry then has to find a way to reverse the effect and find her. He might have to go on a journey through different wizarding communities and face various challenges. Along the way, he discovers some secrets about the Polyjuice Potion that he didn't know before, like a rare ingredient that can make the potion's effect last much longer than normal.

One interesting plot twist could be when the polyjuice potion is accidentally modified. For example, instead of just changing a person's appearance, it also gives them some of the magical abilities of the person they are transforming into. This could lead to a character who is normally not very powerful suddenly having extraordinary skills, which would completely change the power dynamics in the story.

One idea could be a character using Polyjuice Potion to switch with a Death Eater to infiltrate their ranks and gather information for the Order of Phoenix. This would lead to a lot of tense moments as they try not to be discovered.

One idea could be a student using Polyjuice Potion to turn into a house - elf to spy on the Hogwarts kitchen secrets. They might discover a hidden passage that the house - elves use for their own purposes. Another could be turning into a hippogriff to experience flight in a new way and interact with other magical creatures from their perspective. Maybe a character uses it to turn into a Blast - Ended Skrewt to find out why they are so aggressive and what their purpose is in the wizarding world.

Harry Potter himself is quite common. Writers like to put him in situations where he has to use the potion to transform for various reasons, like infiltrating the Death Eaters.

One interesting idea could be seeing how characters' relationships change. For example, if Harry was genderswapped, how would his friendship with Ron and Hermione be different? Maybe Hermione would be more protective in a different way. Another idea is the way the genderswapped character would handle situations like facing Voldemort. A female Harry might approach battles or magical challenges with a different set of skills or strategies.

Hermione Granger is quite common. Since she's very intelligent and resourceful in the original series, in fanfiction she often uses the Polyjuice Potion for various purposes, like solving mysteries or getting access to restricted areas.

Well, in a Harry Potter potion class fanfiction, you could have a plot where a new student from a very different magical culture joins the class and has their own unique approach to potion - making. This could lead to some interesting exchanges with Snape or other students. Or perhaps there's a mystery surrounding a particular ingredient in a potion that the students have to figure out. It might be that this ingredient is being hoarded by a dark wizard, and the students' discovery of it puts them in danger. Also, a fun idea could be that a student accidentally switches two ingredients in a potion and creates a brand - new potion with unexpected but useful effects.

One idea could be a potion that reveals long - lost family secrets. For example, a character discovers through the heritage potion that they have a connection to a powerful but forgotten wizarding family. This could lead to a whole new adventure as they explore their new - found heritage.
