    What's annoying about seeing a hot girl every place you visit?

    Can't say I blame him, although I don't necessarily support his life choice.

    Is there a story even close to this? Even if executed poorly I would want to read a story with the premise of Harry losing after gaining much power.

    There actually is a fanfiction based on this premise, called The Rise & Fall of Harry Potter by Lucullus. It only has 5 chapters though and it was even before Harry got to Hogwarts for his first year. Still, it had a good start and lots of potential.

    And the last update was in 2005. Some potential, eh?

    As for the category? No. Show me the need for it. It's kind of like Severitus fics. We used to have a category for it, the number of stories good enough to fit in there didn't justify having it around.

    Woops, I must have deleted the part about it bieng abandoned. "it was even..", must have deleted the abondened part when editing. Also, while theres no category in DLP, you can go to partial-eclipse.net/bythemes, where theres a theme based on Dark Lord Harry, Snape, and Lucius. I warn you though, most of those fics are slash and I don't know of any where Harry rise in power and falls.
