Before they were legends, they were eleven years old and eagerly ready to begin their training in the Wizarding world. "The Marauders Begin" details the humble beginnings of James, Sirius, Remus, and Peter as they journey through the trials and tribulations of magical life under the watchful eye of their stern Head of House, Minerva McGonagall. 

Meanwhile, the Black sisters, Narcissa, Andromeda, and Bellatrix, find themselves torn as Lord Voldemort continues to gain power, leading more and more to devote their loyalties to him, and Hogwarts prepares for the school year under the leadership of an eccentric new Headmaster.

HOGWARTS 70'S: THE BEGINNING (YEAR 01) | BOOK 1 | HEADCANON by NorahLightPages
18 parts Ongoing
The beginning of a new era at Hogwarts: the first year of the Marauders. When James Potter, Sirius Black, Remus Lupin, and Peter Pettigrew arrive at Hogwarts, none of them are prepared for what awaits them in their first year. For each of them, this new beginning is much more than just learning magic; it is the start of a journey that will change their lives forever. For James Potter, arriving at Hogwarts is everything he's ever dreamed of: the chance to stand out and show off his talent. But he will soon discover that true greatness is not measured solely by magical skills, but by the strength of the friendships he is about to form. Sirius Black, born into a dark and traditional family, faces the unexpected challenge of being sorted into Gryffindor, a house that represents everything his family despises. For the first time, Sirius has the chance to step out from the shadow of his surname and carve his own path, far from what it means to be a Black. For Remus Lupin, studying at Hogwarts seemed impossible. Marked by a dark secret, he never imagined that Dumbledore himself would give him his letter of acceptance to Hogwarts. Now, amidst classes and spells, he must deal with the burden of keeping his true nature hidden, fearing that if it's discovered, he will lose the chance to be a normal wizarding child. Peter Pettigrew, more insecure and less confident than the others, gets into trouble from day one, forcing him to desperately seek a place where he belongs. Although his first impressions may not be the best, Peter is determined to prove his bravery and find a group that will accept him and help him reach his true potential. With unexpected challenges, dark secrets, and newly-formed friendships, the first year at Hogwarts will mark the beginning of a brotherhood that will face trials they could never have imagined. This is only the start of the Marauders' adventures, where the magic of friendship will be tested time and time again.

Tom Riddle love story set in the Marauders Era. The era of the marauders is a time of drastic societal change within the wizarding world. The 60's and 70's are a time of strife as squib protests commence and pure blood riots fight back in an attempt to maintain the social hierarchy which has always kept them on top. However, the difficult times are not only laced into the fabric of British wizarding society, as unrest is beginning to take place from within the castle walls of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Many of the pureblood students echo the traditional sentiments of their parents, so what will happen when a talented young first year by the name of Tom Riddle joins the school? Will he travel down the path that we know of him and become the feared Lord Voldemort, or will the offer of friendship and love from the students of the marauders era be enough to sway him from his destiny? Follow Lyra Black (original character) and the rest of the next generation of The Noble and Most Ancient House of Black (Bellatrix, Sirius, Andromeda, Narcissa and Regulus) as they attend Hogwarts. As they struggle through familial control and expectations, changes within their society, love, friendship, house rivalries and their own inner demons, will the heirs of the Black line be able to maintain their once strong familial bonds as they get pulled in different directions? This story deviates from the original timelines of the Harry Potter series in order to accommodate many of the characters that we know and love (or love to hate)! Lots of characters are brought together within the space of a few years, so their birth years will not be accurate. Also there are some other changes, such as age of attendance to Hogwarts beginning at 15 (and ending at 22) because I didn't want to write about 11 year olds! ;) This story is based off the Harry Potter series and all rights belong to J.K. Rowling. I only own Lyra Black, other original characters and original plot lines.
