    Welcome to DLP nxtm4n. Weird name -- does it have significant meaning or something? Your paragraphs at the end of your post were somewhat large.

    I like your idea for a magic system. Music comparisons are interesting to me. I agree with whoever said that putting Harry in this will draw a larger audience, but for all I know you are going to have Harry (or various other canon chars) make appearances soon after your set the background in Ch1.

    Cheers.

    nxtm4n has no significance beyond me using it just about everywhere I sign up. If you see a nxtm4n somewhere, well... that's probably me. And as I've said, I do plan to have Harry in it.

    Cheers to you too!

    From my understanding, if he died with a Horcrux then technically, he could still be alive in the time of Harry Potter, just, without anyone to find his Horcrux and perform a ritual like Voldemort did, he can do nothing.

    Also, I'm unsure of how one actually dies with a Horcrux, If his body 'died' wouldn't he be sort of like a ghost or specter until he could regain a body?

    That's what Voldemort was, more or less. "Less than a ghost," I think he said in GoF.

    That's how you die; when you don't have a Horcrux anymore.

    Read the first chapter.

    Will not be reading the second.

    Edit:

    Herpo Hades... Adam Apollo... WTF is that, OP? The Ancient Greeks didn't have traditional last names. They were So-and-So of ____ (insert city-state). If you really want to indicate heritage, say So-and-So of House ____ (insert god/goddess), or So-and-So son/daughter of ____.

    Seconded - this could have been so much better, but in the end, it felt like you threw it together in 10 minutes. Disappointing, but I'll read the next chapter just to see if you improve it.
