Is there any good 'Harry is Salazar Slytherin' fanfiction?

Yes, there are quite a few. You can start by looking on popular fanfiction websites like Fanfiction.net or Archive of Our Own. Just search for 'Harry is Salazar Slytherin' and you'll find a variety of stories with different interpretations and plotlines.

There is. Such fanfictions can be really fascinating as they blend the legend of Merlin with the lore of Hogwarts. They might depict Merlin as a mentor to Slytherin or having a hand in the founding of Slytherin house. Some of the best ones not only focus on their relationship but also how it could have affected the wizarding world as a whole.

There are definitely some out there. For example, in some fanfictions, Hermione might find an ancient artifact that was once Salazar Slytherin's and it unlocks a whole new side of her. It could be that she discovers she has some Slytherin - like traits that she didn't know about before, and the fanfic could then explore how she deals with that in the context of her Gryffindor identity and her relationships with her friends at Hogwarts.

Definitely. There are fanfictions that delve into Snape's ancestry and how it might be related to Salazar Slytherin. Maybe his family has a long - hidden connection to Slytherin, and this is gradually revealed throughout the story. It could also explore how Snape's loyalty to Dumbledore and his role as a double agent are influenced by his connection to Slytherin's heritage, adding an interesting layer to his character.

Yes, there are some interesting ones. Some fanfictions explore the idea of Harry Potter having a connection to Salazar Slytherin in creative ways, like perhaps being a distant descendant. They can offer new perspectives on the Hogwarts houses and the overarching story of the wizarding world.

I read a fanfiction once where Harry being the heir of Slytherin led to a whole new dynamic in the wizarding world. The story explored how the other houses reacted, especially Gryffindor. It was fascinating to see Harry struggle with the duality of being seen as both a hero from Gryffindor and the heir of the supposedly 'dark' Slytherin.

In fanfiction, there are often creative interpretations. One way Harry could be related to Salazar Slytherin is if the Sorting Hat, which has a connection to Slytherin, detects a hidden Slytherin trait in Harry that was passed down through some unknown family connection. This could lead to a whole new set of adventures and self - discovery for Harry as he grapples with this unexpected relation to the founder of one of Hogwarts' houses.

One great fanfiction I read was 'The Slytherin's Heirloom'. It delved deep into the life of the descendant, exploring how they coped with the legacy. The character was complex, with a mix of Slytherin's cunning and their own unique personality traits. It had a great plot that involved solving an ancient mystery related to Slytherin.

Sure. A lot of fanfiction writers enjoy twisting the established lore. In these stories, they might re - imagine Harry's abilities and how they could be related to Slytherin's legacy. Maybe he'd have a different connection to snakes or an even deeper understanding of the Dark Arts, but still use it for good. However, these are just creative interpretations and not part of the original canon.

A really well - written fanfiction on this topic is 'When Harry Becomes Salazar Slytherin Reborn'. The story is great because it not only focuses on the power that Harry gains from this rebirth but also on the moral dilemmas he has to face. He has to decide whether to follow the more extreme Slytherin values of old or to blend them with the more modern values of the wizarding world he grew up in. This creates a lot of internal conflict for Harry which makes for a very engaging read.
