Harry Potter is not the malleable, tragic pawn the wizarding world believes him to be. In reality, he is Hadrian Potter-Peverell-Emrys, the reincarnated soul of the ancient and god-like sorcerer, Merlin (Emrys). Retaining his ancient memories and devastating magical power, Hadrian realizes that Albus Dumbledore and the "Light" faction are not the heroes of the story, but corrupt manipulators who have suppressed true, elemental magic (the "Old Ways") for decades. Refusing to be a sacrificial lamb, Hadrian systematically dismantles Dumbledore's empire from the shadows.

Harry Potter: Is Harry's Mom Wanda? In the final moment before her destruction, Wanda Maximoff " the Scarlet Witch " is pulled into a void beyond time or form. Lost in the abyss of her guilt, a mysterious light touches her... and brings her back. Not to her world, but to another. One where magic is different. Where redemption might take shape: the world of Harry Potter. When a luminous figure " a doe " shows her the memories of a boy abandoned and mistreated by his relatives, Wanda understands her new purpose: to protect Lily Potter's son. Though she doesn't know why she was chosen, she accepts the deal. In exchange for a chance at redemption, she will care for little Harry. But Wanda is no ordinary witch. And this world is not ready for her. From the very first moment on Privet Drive, the Dursleys will feel that something has changed. With power, resolve, and growing compassion, Wanda will face a new destiny. Because this time... no one will touch the boy without facing her. After all, who better to protect the Boy Who Lived... than the Scarlet Witch herself? Author's Disclaimer: This story is loosely inspired by the initial premise of Strange Potter, a work I greatly admire and that served as a creative spark for developing this project. Although the plot, character development, and events are entirely original and distinct, I believe it's only fair to acknowledge that initial influence. Likewise, this is a non-profit fanfic that blends elements from the Marvel and Harry Potter universes, whose rights belong to their respective creators and owners (Marvel/Disney and J.K. Rowling). This work is made with respect and with the intention of paying tribute to these worlds that so many of us have enjoyed.

Harry's life had never been what one would consider normal, but this was just plain weird.

Lily and James Potter had two boys "born as the seventh month dies". The oldest was Evan James Charlus Potter. And the youngest was Hadrian Sirius Orion Potter. On that fateful Halloween night in '81, Albus Too-many-names-Dumbledore, the great and powerful 'light lord' made a grave mistake. He told the world that Evan was 'the boy who lived'. Whilst actually it was his younger brother. Read as Hadrian becomes the outcast/shadow compared to his 'perfect brother'. He becomes a Slytherin - not only a Slytherin but the first Potter in Slytherin. Will Albus ever realise his mistake?

After his first year Harry knew both the Muggle world and Wizarding world wasn't safe for himself. After something Ron said to Draco, Harry was now the run from a large group of Slytherins out for blood. So Harry did the one thing he always did, ran into the forest to get away from bullies. Only, the Forbidden Forest is far different than the small woods budding Privet Drive. Art not mine. Credit to the incredible artist.

I do not own Harry Potter. This is a boyxboy fanfic. If you do not like it then do not read it. Harry has never felt at home with the Dursley's and he is about to find out why. Dumbledore has been lying to him about almost everything. Maybe from this new revelation the boy who lived can stop being such a celebrity and more of a normal person like he has always wanted. Harry PotterxSeverus Snape

Severus Snape's troubles came in the form of one small green eyed boy, showing up at his door with a plate of cookies in hand. That started it all. Cross posted on AO3 as Neighbour in Black.

Harry Potter had his title as heir to the Potter clan taken and given to his younger brother all because his brother was the boy-who-lived or so everyone believes. What really happened that night Voldemort attacked Harry defeated him but his younger brother Alex was declared the savior instead. Though it is Harry who is the true savior he was pushed to the shadows of his brother and forgotten by most. At age five Harry finds a magical book that is temporarily anchoring someone's soul. Later that day he hear's a certain conversation between Albus Dumbledore and the Potters. Not liking what he hears he runs away. With the help of the goblins he dissapears for few years traveling and learning. Years later it's time for Hogwarts and Harry Potter is not what the Potters or Dumbledore expected. Harry also goes by a completely different name as he can't legally be called Potter he is Hadrian Riverthornes heir/lord of many. How will Dumbledore handle many plans failing because of Hadrian? How will the wizard world handle not knowing who their savior is? How will Dumbledore handle not being able to control one of the possible profecy child?
