    How would you write Harry Potter with Neville as the Protag?

    I would call it Neville Longbottom and not Harry Potter, that's for sure.

    Does Neville's history remain the same in this hypothetical situation?

    Doesn't have to; all depends on how you would write it.

    If you want to keep the whole Boy Who Lived thing you'd have to do some finagling with the backstory. You'd need a death eater who cared about either Alice or Frank enough to beg Lord Voldemort to not kill one of them and that death eater would also need to stumble on the prophecy so LV would even care to reward them at all.

    Also, Nevilled Longbottom sounds like a deviant sex act. I Nevilled all over her Longbottom
