    Best Anti-Hero

    [​IMG]

    Awarded to the author with the best protagonist that exemplifies what is commonly found in anti-heroes - lack of foolish bravery and usage of dirty tricks that would usually be shunned (aka dark, yet light-sided).

    One story per person.

    Summary: Seven Year AU. Suppose the Dursleys had not been Harry's only living relations. How might the young hero that we know and adore have been changed by a loving childhood? The differences might not be as universally positive as one might think...

    Edit: Decided to take a different take on this. Since everyone else is nominating Dark!Harry, I'm going to go with my version of the true antithesis of Heroic!Harry, the lazy fop who can't dress himself without help. And Vash, this makes me twice as egotistical as you.

    Summary:"I know I'll be in Slytherin, all our family have been - where are my manners?" The boy held out his hand. "I'm Malfoy, Draco Malfoy." ``Not knowing what else to do, Harry took the boy's hand. "Harry Potter."````A friendly handshake in Madam Malkin's leads to an AU which is eerily like the canon, featuring a cast of first year Slytherins as you've never seen them: normal children. Join Harry Potter and his new friends as they discover their magical talents and help him to explore the world that has been kept from him these past ten years.

    PS Could someone please nominate "the Hero's Path"? I know it's getting repetitive, but still...
