I'll do anything Harry Potter fanfiction. What are some interesting plot ideas for Harry Potter fanfiction?

One interesting plot idea could be exploring what would happen if Harry had a different upbringing, like being raised by the Malfoys. It would completely change his view of the wizarding world and his relationships. Another idea might be a time - travel fanfic where Harry goes back to the Marauders' era and interacts with his parents and their friends. This could lead to him preventing certain tragedies or changing the future in unexpected ways. And then there's the concept of a fanfic where the roles are reversed, and Voldemort is the one trying to protect the wizarding world from a greater evil, with Harry being the main antagonist.

A great plot for a Potter Manor fanfiction could involve a mystery that surrounds the manor. For instance, strange noises at night lead Harry to uncover a long - forgotten chamber. It could also be about Harry restoring the manor to its former glory, perhaps with the help of Hermione's research on ancient magic used in the construction of such manors.

Develop their backstories thoroughly. If your character is a Slytherin, think about why they were sorted into that house. Maybe they come from a family with a long history of dark magic use, but they want to break free from that legacy. By having a detailed backstory, their actions and decisions in the fanfiction will seem more logical. Also, let their relationships with other characters evolve naturally. Just like how Harry's relationship with Ron and Hermione grew over time, your characters' relationships should too.

Another plot could revolve around Harry's Occlumency lessons. In fanfiction, it could be that instead of just trying to block his mind from Voldemort, he actually manages to use Occlumency to his advantage. He could start to plant false thoughts in Voldemort's mind through their connection, leading Voldemort astray in his plans.

One idea could be Lily Luna Potter discovers a hidden spellbook that once belonged to Harry Potter. She starts to experiment with the spells inside and accidentally opens a portal to a parallel magical world. There, she meets a younger version of Harry Potter and they have to work together to find a way back home while also facing the new and strange magical threats in that world.

Well, a plot might involve Harry - now James - trying to change the fate of his family. He could focus on protecting Lily in a different way than James did in the original story. Maybe he'd use his knowledge of magic from his past life to create new spells or defenses. Also, his relationship with Snape could be very different. Since he was Harry before, he might understand Snape's feelings better and try to make amends or change the animosity between them.

One plot idea could be that Fem Harry Potter travels back in time and meets James Potter. They form an unexpected friendship and she has to navigate the differences between their time periods while also dealing with her own identity in this new situation.

Another interesting plot could be that Harry's connection to Voldemort causes some strange magical disruptions during the Triwizard Tournament. These disruptions seem like accidents at first, but Harry gradually realizes they are being caused by his own dark - side related powers that are being awakened in his fourth year.

A traveler could be from a different magical realm entirely and come to the Harry Potter universe. They bring with them unique magical abilities that both fascinate and frighten the wizards in the Harry Potter world. This could lead to a series of adventures where they either share their knowledge or are hunted down by those who fear the new magic they possess.

One idea could be that Hecate, being the goddess of magic, takes Harry Potter under her wing secretly to teach him ancient and powerful magic that Dumbledore doesn't know. This could lead to Harry having new abilities to fight Voldemort.
