In this fanfiction, Harry's mother raising him could mean he has a much stronger connection to his family's heritage. Since she was a Gryffindor, she would instill the values of the house in him even more deeply. Harry could grow up with a better understanding of the wizarding politics and be better prepared to face the challenges that come with being the Boy Who Lived. He might also be more involved in the wizarding community from a young age, attending magical events and getting to know other prominent families.
One possible plot could be that with his mother alive, Harry grows up in a loving and magical home environment. He might have a normal childhood in the wizarding world, without the abuse from the Dursleys. His mother could teach him magic from an early age, and he would be more confident and less scarred. He might also form different friendships as he doesn't have the 'outsider' experience at Hogwarts that he had in the original story.
One possible plot could be that his grandfather, perhaps a powerful but reclusive wizard, trains Harry in unique magic from a young age. Harry might grow up with a different set of values and skills compared to the original story. He could have a closer bond with the wizarding world's older traditions.
In fanfiction where Harry Potter is raised by his fans, the plot could involve a lot of interesting scenarios. For example, he might be exposed to a much more modern and diverse view of the wizarding world from the start. Fans could introduce him to different magical cultures that were not fully explored in the original books. He might also grow up with a stronger sense of self - worth as fans would likely shower him with love and support, which could make him more confident in his abilities.
In this fanfiction, Snape might raise Harry in a more secluded environment. He would try to protect Harry from the wizarding world's prying eyes as much as possible. Harry would learn about his parents from Snape's perspective, which could be a very different view compared to what he would have heard otherwise. Snape would also train Harry to be more self - reliant and less impulsive, as he knows the danger that Harry's fame and the prophecy bring.
In such a fanfiction, perhaps the story could show Harry growing up with a different kind of family dynamic. His grandparents might instill in him values that are different from what he would have learned at the Dursleys'. For example, they could be more open about his magical heritage from the start, which would lead to him being more confident in his abilities as he grows. Maybe they would also have their own set of magical friends and connections that would introduce Harry to a different side of the wizarding world earlier.
One possible plot could be that Harry grows up in a loving and magical home. He gets to learn magic from his parents at a very early age. His father, James, might teach him Quidditch skills right in their backyard. His mother, Lily, could pass on her knowledge of potions and herbology. They would also protect him from the dark forces that are still out there, perhaps leading to some epic battles where the family stands united against the remnants of Voldemort's followers.
The plot would change drastically. Harry would not be living with the Dursleys, so there would be no need for him to escape that horrible situation. Voldemort might have a harder time targeting him as his parents would be on high alert. There would be no letter - hunting drama. Also, his relationship with Snape would be different as his father was Snape's rival. His parents could have taught him some advanced magic from a young age, which would make him stand out at Hogwarts in a different way than in the original story.
In such a fanfiction, perhaps Wolverine's rough and protective nature would greatly influence Harry. Harry might grow up with a fierce sense of self - defense and loyalty. He could be trained in combat skills from a young age, making him a very different kind of wizard. Maybe he'd use his magic in more physical and aggressive ways compared to the traditional Hogwarts students.
In a 'Harry Potter raised in Ireland' fanfic, perhaps he'd grow up with a strong connection to Irish magic. He might learn unique spells only known in Ireland. Maybe he'd attend a local Irish wizarding school first before Hogwarts, and make friends with Irish magical creatures.
In a 'Harry Potter raised as a Warrior' fanfiction, the story could start with Harry being found by a group of Warriors. They teach him their code of honor and how to fight. As he grows up, he becomes an expert in their ways. When he enters Hogwarts, he stands out because of his unique combat - like approach to things. He might even form his own group of friends who are interested in his Warrior - style, and together they could face the challenges of the wizarding world in a different way compared to the original story. For example, instead of relying solely on spells, he might use his physical combat skills during duels.
In this fanfiction, the ghosts might protect Harry in a way that living people can't. They could give him advice based on their long years of observing Hogwarts. For example, they might tell him secrets about the founders of Hogwarts that help him in his adventures. Also, Harry's personality could be influenced by the ghosts' ethereal and somewhat detached nature, making him more introspective.
