    Only in the films. In the books, there are male students as well.

    That would make him popular, I'm sure.
    Though there has to be a magical school that accepts boys and isn't run by a Death Eater somewhere. Especially since Ron's parents aren't going to be particularly choosy about the school's academic credentials, just so long as he is firmly directed away from DARK INFLUENCES. Like that nasty little snake-in-the-grass Potter, who seemed like such a nice boy at Platform Nine and Three-Quarters.

    Not sure if Banner is trolling, retarded, or their account got hijacked.

    Thank you. I was wondering where Samkar had got the notion that Beauxbatons was an all girls school.

    It states that Padma and Patil were hit on by Beauxbaton males iirc

    Obviously Beauxbatons boys are just very effeminate and wear dresses.

    It's a very open-minded place, that Beauxbatons.

    Well that was blunt. Also another point of Divergence, Tom Riddle comes back to life down in the Chamber of Secrets, but Lord Voldemorts little baby form doesn't die letting him ressurect in the Goblet of Fire.

    This does assume that Harry gets caught by someone competent trying to enter the CoS and they end up killing the Basalisk but Riddle gets away through the pipes.

    Or you could just let Ginny die down there and let awesome teenage Riddle ride his Basilisk out the front gates.

    Somewhat pulling, but there is a story that used a premise similar to that, but it was Harry that was bitten if I recall. Sadly the work was abandoned, and I believe the author made some slight changes to his original post.

    I would be very much so interested in a story where Lupin bites Harry at the end of PoA. I feel that it would only intensify the outcast status Harry has in GoF after he is chosen as a champion. Who doesn't wish to make his life a little more difficult?

    I can see where this could go very wrong. Super Harry tendencies from "werewolf" strength and amplified physical senses, but it could provide for more incentive for Harry to go dark during 4th year. Just think of all the possibilities in werewolf pack mentality...

    Does Harry become the alpha? I would hope not, would be too easy. But it's another allegiance that Harry would have to deal with. Dumbledore being the other. I would like to see a cunning and manipulative character, attempting to use Dumbledore as a shield against the light, while on the other hand, attempting to overcome his submissive nature to other, more powerful werewolves. Add to this the "minor" Voldemort problem, and there is a story ripe for the plucking. I would worry about the scope of such a project, but still an interesting idea, nonetheless.

    Werewolf Voldemort seems interesiting, or would he forgo using Harry's Blood if that is the case?

    Kid, read Goblet of Fire again, especially chapter 15, and tell me how did Harry overcome the Imperius Curse if he's a submissive character like you said.
    He's a strong willed wizard, he's not going to suck Greyback's cock just because he's a new werewolf.

    If you want to write a slash Harry/Greyback story, be my guest. I won't be reading it, but more power to you.

    As for the topic, clearly Harry would instantly become the alpha or what have you because he is the best at everything he tries ever. More feasible and something that I would rather see is him to start from nothing and work his way up.

    "Submissiveness" has nothing to do with it. Manipulating allegiances, however, has everything to do with it.
