Let the Fight Begin!
[IMG] Pick a bracket, say who wins and why. Basic rules: - Assume characters are as they were at the end of DH, unless they were dead or seriously injured at this time. - For dead or seriously injured characters, assume they are fighting in the state they were in before their death/injury (e.g. Dumbledore is fighting prior to being cursed by the ring horcrux). - Assume no special weapons or battlefield advantage. - No one has the Elder Wand.

Common Fanon Ideas You Hate
Was curious, what are some fairly common ideas in HP fanlore you have encountered that you dislike? One that I have almost universally encountered is how Dorea Black is Harry`s grandmother, which I dislike because of what it means for the events of canon. If my memory serves me correctly; all Blacks with the exception of Sirius have been sorted in Slytherin. If Harry Potter`s grandmother was a witch from one of the most notorious dark families and sorted into Slytherin, I`m pretty sure...

The Pairing Function
Do you guys believe in using the pairing function to tag your characters as a couple for stories on fanfiction.net?

A super wizard Harry
Hello DLP. Is there any readable story in the HP fandom where Harry finishes his education after DH, travels around the world learning different 'magicks' and returns to Britain as a 'super wizard' at the age of like 30 or 35 instead of settling for mediocrity. Note: If Ginny is dead in that story, if one exists, cheers to the author.
