In the 'Harry Potter is head of Slytherin' fanfiction, how does Harry change the Slytherin house culture?

An intelligent Slytherin can have a huge impact on the plot of Harry Potter fanfiction. Slytherins are typically portrayed as shrewd and resourceful. So, in fanfic, an intelligent one might be able to outwit Voldemort or his Death Eaters in ways Harry and his friends couldn't. They could use their intelligence to broker peace between the houses at Hogwarts, which would be a major shift from the often - tense relationships in the original series. They might also introduce new magical concepts or techniques that they've discovered through their own research and study, opening up entirely new storylines and directions for the fanfiction.

When Harry is in Slytherin in fanfiction, his view of the wizarding world may change. He may start to see the grey areas more clearly. Instead of seeing things as simply good or bad, he realizes that there are many factors at play. This makes him more complex as a character. He may also have to deal with the Slytherin legacy of the Dark Arts. He has to navigate through the temptations and warnings related to it. He might study some Dark Arts spells not to use them for evil, but to understand how to defend against them, which is a very different path from what he would have taken in Gryffindor.

The story would change a great deal. In the original, Harry being in Gryffindor meant he was associated with courage and heroism. In Slytherin in fanfiction, he'd be associated with cunning and ambition. The Sorting Hat's decision to put him in Slytherin would likely be due to some different interpretation of his character traits. Maybe it saw his ambition to defeat Voldemort as more of a Slytherin - like quality. This would also change how the teachers view him. Snape, for example, might be less hostile towards him since they are in the same house.

Well, he might show Slytherin traits like cunning. For example, he could use clever manipulation to outwit his enemies, much like Slytherins are known for. He might also be more ambitious in this fanfiction, setting goals for himself that are self - serving rather than just for the good of all.

Well, usually it changes the relationships. For example, his friendship with Ron and Hermione might be strained at first. Since they are in different houses. Harry might also face different types of rivalries within Slytherin. He has to prove himself to his new housemates.

His character becomes more calculating. In Slytherin, he has to adapt to the house's values of cunning. So, he might think twice before acting, unlike his more impulsive Gryffindor self. For example, in a duel, he would strategize more instead of relying solely on courage.

In many Harry Potter fanfictions, Slytherin House is often depicted as the source of bullying. This might be due to the general perception of Slytherins as being more ambitious and sometimes ruthless in the original series. However, not all Slytherins are bullies. Some fanfictions aim to explore the reasons behind such behavior, like the influence of their families or the pressure within the house to uphold certain values. For example, a story could show a Slytherin student bullying a Gryffindor because of the long - standing rivalry between the two houses, but as the story progresses, they learn to understand each other's perspectives and change their ways.

One great 'Harry Potter Slytherin House Fanfiction' is 'The Slytherin Heir'. It explores the idea of a new heir in Slytherin House with a unique plot. The characters are well - developed, and it gives a different perspective on the Slytherin students, showing that they are not all just the 'bad guys' as often stereotyped in the original series.

Well, it could make Slytherin more strict. Draco has his own ideas about purity and power from his family upbringing. He might enforce more traditional Slytherin values, like ambition above all. This could lead to more competition within the house, as students strive to meet his high standards.

If Hermione was in Slytherin, their relationship would be more complex. They would have to overcome the typical Gryffindor - Slytherin rivalry. Harry might initially be more suspicious of Hermione's motives since Slytherins are often seen as more self - serving. However, Hermione's intelligence and loyalty would still shine through, and she would prove to Harry that not all Slytherins are bad. Their friendship would likely be more private as they would face scrutiny from both houses.
