Aurors are technically military and cops at the same time

 

A HP character with the potential to take up a Punisher style role should BE Alastor Moody. While the other recommendations make a good argument, I think Moody fits the role perfectly from what we see of him in canon.

His vengeance schemes can start when the Ministry doesn't acknowledge Voldemort's return and the Order does next to nothing in actively opposing Voldemort's forces. I mean, he lost a lot in the previous war and he doesn't want the current generation to face what people went through before- this providing him an excuse for his twisted vengeance schemes.

 

I was wondering if a HP/Death Note crossover would work? I'm not so sure, probably not. The wizarding world doesn't have that many people for the Kira figure to write a longer list of names. And it doesn't have that many criminals either, not counting the former Death Eaters.

I'm guessing the Death Note user would have to have a different ideology and kill a specific type of people. But what type I have no idea.

 

You could always go with Dark Magic. Some random wizard, that believed in blood purity - or you could go with just simple insane "I-will-prove-to-you-my-brilliance" - wanted to show that he could kill mudbloods in very interesting ways, but at the same time, not being on the scene. So he devised a ritual that does the killing - similar to thaumaturgical rituals from DF - and created a small object that is the mean to control the ritual - Death Note.

 

I really must be bored out of my mind. I guess it's the hot weather.

Title: [NSFW]
Category: Humor/Horror
Summary: When The /b/tard woke up as some boy named Ronald Weasley, he felt trolled. Then he discovered that magic exists. Magic is might...but OP is a faggot.

As the summary states, a very questionable individual is given access to magic. He comes from a world where the Harry Potter series never existed, therefore he has no future knowledge. Now when I say 'The /b/tard' I don't mean just some random teenager who browses /b/. I mean an amalgamation of all the /b/tards as they act online. I'd expect to see some hilarious yet terrifying events. And hey, maybe more things appear in addition to the /b/tard? How would the Patronus Charm work against the Slender Man?

 

The fic would rapidly devolve into a spidey thread.

 

I shudder to think what such beings like Pedobear or Zalgo would bring.

 

Ogre.

That is all.

 

Shrek is Love. Shrek is Life.

 

Got this plot bunny after the recent tide of Harry Potter A Song of Ice and Fire(Game of Thrones) crossovers. Instead of Harry reborn in Westeros one of the westerosi or essosi gets reborn as Harry with their memories.(cxjenious' The Prince Who Was Promised style though they remmember everything but aren't attached to it.) Could be a fic where Harry is the brother of the BHL and Reborn!charachter finds himself at odds with the incompetent morons that have no idea how wars are fought. I'm conflicted between Tywin, Tyrion, Bloodraven and Bittersteel.

 

:facepalm

Oh dear, first off HP 'wars' would, and do consist of literally nothing but hyper mobile attacks, where the only method of pinning the other wizards down is by attacking something of value to them, because once they apparate or portkey away you can't catch them anymore.

Their entire method of warfare is based around assaulting defended structures with small numbers, or defending large structures with small numbers and large area defense spells. I mean as much as I love Game of Thrones a single mildly competent HP wizard would pretty much be god for all they could do to him.

Catapaults? I'm sorry but my walls are unbreakable.
Armies? Well shit, looks like someone cast a muggle repelling charm over my home and now you can't find it.
Enemy political figures? Hey look at this stick, Imperius.
Enemy knocking down the door? My forces deserting? That's cool, all my statues are now alive, have fun chipping away at the thirteen foot tall version of me who swings small trees around like a cricket bat, along with the animated suits of armour who are quite content to beat you like a red-headed step child.

I mean come on man, all of those guys are great...in their 'verse, but they'd have to adapt to a whole new set of rules or they'd get steamrolled from the get go.

Though I'm not saying it's a bad idea, it's just that the scent of 'muggles rule, guns FTW' seems to be permeating your idea.

 

Or you could have Daenerys Targaryen incarnate in the body of Fleur JUST before the First Task, aaaaand BANG! Mother of Dragons takes the world.

 

...Or that, that works as well. Gotta wonder though...who'd she consider man enough for her, if I remember right she had a thing for big, hairy and gruff.

Hagrid it is then.

 

And they'll realise that because they'll be reborn as a wizard/witch. On the topic of how wars are fought in the wizarding world you've got a point. A massive Westeros style battle is out of the question so the wizards fight with politics and all the other nasty stuff which a westeros charachter is quite suited with.

I mean look at the build up to the second war. At the end of year 3 Trelawney's second prophecy that says that V' gonna comeback. He comes back at the end of year 4 and is outed to the world at end of year 5. Quite a lot of time to prepare for war and the westeros!charachter is surely going to use and not sit on his arse like a moron.

And how to prepare for war? I see the westeros!charachter pushing for the executions of the captured Death Eaters and taking all of their gold and shit and dividing it up between victims and even the MInistry, trying to authorise the Unforgivables onъе again and a death sentence to all marked Death Eaters that are captured after the war begins. Azkaban for their spouses and everyone else who knew what exactly they were doing Friday afternoon.Usage of veritaserum of suspected and marked DE's to for information. The Death Eaters are a close groop of people no matter what Karkarof said and once you know a few, detain them a make them sing their lives to you thanks to veritaserum you'll have quite the advantage over them.How many purebloods are going to join V when they know that aurors are authorised to kill and torture with the Unforgivables? How many are going to join when capture means instant death? How many are going to risk their gold and the fancy mannors that they live in to follow a madman?

@Henry Persico Fuck yeah. Danny!Fleur for Queen.

Dumbledore blinked in surprise as a hog-tied Harry Potter was carried away, wriggling and squirming, over the French Champion's shoulder.

Said French Champion had a beaming smile on her angelic face and a perverted look in her shining eyes.

"Well," Dumbledore finally said, stroking his beard thoughtfully. "I always thought this would happen to him in the next year or so."

Minerva simply continued to stare in disbelief, not even caring when a fly flew into her open mouth.

 

So there's some massive threat everyone thought was gone, but the difference between the Westerosi and the HP wizards is that the former did something the moment they knew about it?

Bull-shit, White Walkers.

Also all of that simply endears DE's to the public, because all they'll see is the Death Eaters being killed, followed by random people who had slight connections being brutally murdered/ tortured, totalitarian states end very, very badly when the people you're brutally oppressing have all the same weapons as you do and there are more of them.

 

If done in peace time yes. But what about when Lord Voldemort is running amok like he did in book 6. He's the only one who's going to care about the Death Eater executions, the Unforgivables that the aurors are using, the confiscation of the property and gold of his followers and said followers interogated under the influence of veritaserum and spilling vital information. And as we all know the Ministry really likes to lean on the Prophet and publish the things that it wants published.

 

Honestly, I don't think any of the bolded actually happened in canon. Or I guess it might have, but we were never told. I'm 99% sure that Aurors were only authorized to use the Unforgivable Curses in the First Wizarding War, as well. There's also the implication that Gringotts would even allow the Scrimgeour Ministry to confiscate vaults in the first place, which goes against most of what we know about goblins. There's also the fact that convicted felon mass murderer Sirius Black was able to access his Vault to pay for Harry's Firebolt in PoA.

You also have to remember, Voldemort only had to deal with an openly militant Ministry for about a year. After that, the Ministry was in his pocket and the curses were legalized.

 

It was Crouch who pushed for the authorisation of the Unforgivables and managed to get it. As for the confiscation, well in OoTP Bill says that during the First War the Death Eaters murdered goblins. And even the goblins don't allow the confiscation, the spliting of the wealth in the DE vaults between the families of all the wizards that were offed by the vaulth owners in the war could probably happen. Like a 10% chance with a lot of grovelling involved and a promise to return to the goblins all goblin made things. Of course it all depends on what the goblins prefer: disrespectful wizards or a bunch of hollier than thou purebloods led by a megalomaniac that will most certanly try to destroy Gringots and get all the gold should they come in power.Remainig neutral has it's benefits right until Voldemort crushes all the little pockets of resistance and goes for the gold.

 

Murdering goblins ≠ breaching Gringotts.

We're shown that it's probably not too hard to do that. But then again, most people don't escape on the backs of dragons.
