    One thing I've realized is that all the mafia prince Harry stories have Harry adopted by a Muggle criminal, such as Potter by Water Mage.

    Has anyone seen a fic where Harry gets adopted by a wizarding crime lord?

    The Uncle

    Genre: Humor
    Year: Hogwarts Years
    Word Count: 8,054
    Reviews: 32
    Chapters: 1
    Summary: Just some AU silliness I came up with, featuring a crimelord called Uncle, Dumbledore's usual oblivious self, and the Dursleys getting what's been coming to them, Sopranos style.

    Alternate Universe. Pairing: R/S

    The R/S is off to the side.

    The story comes out at average.

    That Uncle one is the only one I've ever read. I suppose all the organised criminals go into the Death Eaters or the MoM.

    Hm. Gives me an idea.

    Not a huge fan of Muggle!Mafia Harry but Wizarding!Mafia doesn't sound too bad. Various Pureblood families 'owning' certain areas of Wizarding Britain and ruling the areas with the usual shit. Families waring, like the Malfoy's and whoever. I was going to say Weasley's, but they are poor and all kind-hearted. You get the idea, though.

    Heh, I'd read it just because it's something I haven't seen before. It might have to be in a time when there wasn't a war going on, most of the purebloods would be doing Voldemort's bidding.

    Could be interesting though.

    Yeah. It'd have to be an AU, I think.

    Not Blood Prince, it's your typical mafia story, except that Blaise's dad is a wizard.

    What if the Marauders were more shady than anyone thought? The foursome were actually heads of a cabal of Hit Wizards, and when Voldemort, and by extension Wormtail is believed dead, Sirius incarcerated, James dead, and Remus living in seclusion, the Hit Wizards take Harry for themselves?

    That is a nice plot bunny. Mafia-Marauders sounds fucking awesome to me...

    Wouldn't you have to create a whole bunch of OC's, or you could use characters that JK has barely touched upon (i.e. Blaise Zabini, etc.)

    New characters are a must, but you don't really have to create all that many of them. Fill out the other houses (Maybe add a few Slytherin girls, since I believe only two or three out of the five in Harry's year have been introduced), but otherwise use characters that haven't been touched upon, yeah.

    Crabbe and Goyle are good the way they are, though (I can definitely see them being the typical thugs of the Mafia, the ones that do most - if not all - of the grunt work, but get none of the recognition).
