    As the title says I am looking for some hidden gems.
    My requirements
    • Well written fanfics with great character development .
    • Completed fanfics.
    • Pls don't recommend any slash fanfics.
    • Story starts from MCs childhood.
    • I would like to avoid OP MC's(because they sucks ass in HP universe)
    • I would prefer Male MC.
    • Oh and no bashing ,no fucking Bashing .(I hate this shit so much,it ruins a perfectly good fanfic)
    • Canon Dumbledore ( Why do people hate this perfectly good old man so much)

    Have you played with Scryer at all yet to find stories like this? You can use filters for most of this.

    https://scryer.darklordpotter.net/

    Here’s a search that (1) required Harry, (2) no slash, (3) completed only, and (4) sort by DLP rating.
    https://scryer.darklordpotter.net/search?utf8=✓&saved_search_id=&search[fandoms][]=224&search[title]=&search[author]=&search[summary]=&search[character_required][]=1&search[tags_exclude_ids][]=1&search[tags_exclude_ids][]=2&search[tags_exclude_ids][]=3&search[tags_exclude_ids][]=4&search[tags_exclude_ids][]=5&search[language]=english&search[status]=complete&search[rating][]=k&search[rating][]=kplus&search[rating][]=t&search[rating][]=m&search[wordcount_lower]=22222&search[wordcount_upper]=&search[chapters_lower]=&search[chapters_upper]=&search[published_after]=&search[published_before]=&search[updated_after]=&search[updated_before]=&search[read_filter]=all&search[sort_by]=_dlp&search[order_by]=desc

    There are some great recs out there to fit this. But no specific ones come to mind immediately. It’s hard to remember what’s actually complete and what’s not sometimes.


    Edit - I did this from my phone. The link looks annoying. Oh well.

    Yeah. Honestly I was being kind of a smartass. Your post came across a little... Lazy. We'd all love to find a hidden gem, thankfully this site has standards and many of the fics hidden away in out library are of a great standard so if I were you that would be my first port of call.

    We also have Scryer, probably the best fanfiction filtering engine on the internet.
