    All great ideas, but there's still one missing thing: who's going to write it? There are so many plot bunnies just floating around, abandoned with nobody there to type them up into a story.

    i think a ghost harry could work it could be pre hogwarts which fits into the lore of the ghosts training children he and kerrian could be frends and he might have outspoken romantic feelings he could if posible replace jimmy but you might get some cunts complayning about that anyway he could be infested later she could send visions to him that draws harry into a trap that gets him infested after he is infested kerigan could use the romantic feelings that harry feels to manipulate harry if somebody can do all this id read it hope it helps

    In a bout of negativism:

    This has a nearly 0% chance of working. Starcraft and Harry Potter have almost nothing in common. Not to mention the sheer scale of epicness in Starcraft, and the small community terrorism in Harry Potter.

    Best case scenario: Harry meets a zergling. Stuns it. Then gets raped by a lurker/hydralisk/ghost/everyotherunit.

    I have another idea.

    Let's say Harry killed Voldi. And when he is 25 Flamel send the sorcerers stone to him instead of destroying it. Harry lives 350 years. he starts ghost program after wizarding world destroyed. He is one of the leaders of eud fleet. When fleet defeted by Kerrigan he flees to the Protoss and with their help he starts his own colony in a new planet. Fights against Terran dominion and Zerg with help of Templars....

    What do you think?

    So, I went ahead and started my own HP/Starcraft Crossover. It will implement some of the elements discussed here, but it will be tweaked a fair amount. Just wanted to give credit to everyone who threw ideas around here.

    For anyone who's interested, I've posted the prologue in the WBA section. The link is below, cheers.

    I wish you good luck and all, but pretty much NOTHING crosses over with StarCraft well. Not even stuff that is even in the same genre like crap like Warhammer40k or whatever it's called.

    It seems really difficult to make a non-cliche crossover of SC and HP. I can't really imagine what business Harry Potter would have in the Starcraft Universe at all. I wouldn't think that his magic would make him very useful in the type of war the three races are in.

    One stick waving wizard with millions of enemies charging for him would seem pretty weird unless he commanded an army of his own.

    Despite that though, I would love to read a fanfic where Harry mind is somehow blasted off into space and drifts for a very very long time before the Overmind makes mental contact. I honestly think I'd rather read a fic where Harry were put into the body of a zergling than Harry being transported into the SC universe via artifact, spell, or w/e.
