What would the character development be like in a fanfiction where Harry Potter does not attend Hogwarts?

If Harry killed before Hogwarts, he would likely be much more withdrawn and guilt - ridden. His innocence, which is a big part of his initial character, would be shattered. He might be more hesitant to trust others and be less eager to embrace the wizarding world when he finally gets to Hogwarts.

It would be really cool. Harry could get insider knowledge about the school's hidden passages and secrets.

Well, it would be a very different Harry Potter story. Since he's raised by the Hogwarts staff, he might not have the same experiences with the Dursleys. This would probably make him more confident and less of an outcast at first. The staff could train him in magic in a more collective way. For instance, Snape, despite his initial dislike for Harry in the original, might have a different relationship if he was involved in raising Harry. He could teach Harry potions in a more personalized and perhaps less hostile manner as he would see Harry as part of the Hogwarts family from the start.

It would be a disaster. The Hogwarts environment is all about nurturing young wizards and witches, while Orochimaru - like character would be more interested in using the students for his own dark purposes, like experimenting on them or using their magic for his gain.

Harry would become more confident in his abilities. As a Campione, he'd have to face greater challenges, which would force him to grow. He might start as a bit of an outlier, with his Hogwarts - style magic, but soon adapt and become a powerful force.

Well, the teachers at Hogwarts might be quite surprised. Dumbledore would probably be amused and see it as a creative expansion of the wizarding world he knows so well. McGonagall might be a bit more critical, worrying about how it adheres to the proper magical lore. And the students? They'd likely be excited, finding new and different takes on their own adventures and the characters they love.

Definitely. 'The Next Generation' is a great one. It focuses on the children of the original characters and how they grow up in the shadow of their parents' legacies. It really develops their personalities well. For example, James Potter II is shown as a complex character, trying to live up to his father's name while also forging his own path.

Well, in this fanfiction, Harry Potter is no longer the pure - hearted hero we grew up with. He becomes a character that challenges our pre - existing notions. His actions in destroying Hogwarts force us to re - evaluate his character traits. We might see him as more of a tragic figure, someone who was pushed to the edge and made a very controversial decision that had far - reaching consequences.

His development would likely be more solitary. Itachi was often alone in his burdens, and if Harry follows suit, he would distance himself from his friends. Instead of relying on the support of Ron and Hermione, he would take on his problems by himself. This would make him more self - reliant but also more isolated.

She might have a very different experience compared to the original Harry. In Ravenclaw, she'd be surrounded by fellow students who value knowledge and wit. She could be part of intense study groups, discussing complex magic theories late into the night. Her friendships would likely be based on shared intellectual pursuits. For example, she might bond with a Ravenclaw who is also interested in ancient runes, and they'd explore the library together looking for rare books on the subject.
