I thought they were talking about the Twilight ZONE universe until he mentioned sparkly vampires, and then immediately disregarded it.

 

I was looking through my fanfiction writing folder and ran across a novel I penned for NaNoWriMo a few years ago. It's 50.5k words, unedited, a slight crackfic crossover of Harry Potter with the Elric of Melniboné Eternal Champion series by Michael Moorcock. The Harry Potter story jumps off at the train station after Harry eats Voldemort's Killing Curse. He basically tells Dumbledore to perch and rotate (sit and spin?) and jumps down onto the tracks holding Voldemort's homunculus thing. He gets hit by a train and the two merge together and end up in Moorcock's world.

Harry with a sword is "fail", but I went after something a little different in this story: after Stormbringer plunges into his chest and the demon within the sword tries to eat his soul, Harry eats him back and becomes Stormbrimnger. Wielded by Elric (until he can get his body back, at least), they basically romp all over Elric's destiny, whack Arioch, and dimension-leap back to Hogwarts to take on Voldemort's army.

I'm tempted to do an editing job on this thing and post it, but I've never been convinced anyone would care to read it. For grins, here's an excerpt from partway through the novel, when Harry and Elric return to Hogwarts:

##

“Hagger!” a diminutive giant roared. Grawp, Hagrid's brother, rushed his kin, but before his spearhead made contact with the larger giant's shield, a quick swipe by the largest of the Giants shattered the runt's collarbone and tearing off his left arm, save for a few cables of sinew. A second, overhand blow crushed his skull, spattering the smaller giant's ample, but seldom-exercised brains about the grass in a gellified 'splut.'

The black-toothed beast tossed his head back and roared mightily. His tribe, drunk on bloodlust, rushed forward with meaty hands gripping ensorcelled clubs fashioned from fallen and desecrated Dryad trees. None doubted that their malevolent runes could easily shatter Hogwarts's outer walls.

At that moment, time seemed to stop as a white-haired man in black leather armour appeared between the ranks in a brilliant flash of light. In his left hand, he clutched a wide broadsword whose runed, black blade was the length of a short man. It flashed a pulse of red and wreathed itself in aura of ineffable blackness, a foul, haunting pull on the soul that promised unending pain. Like a Dementor's aura, yet distilled a thousandfold, it manifested existential terror. On the albino's left arm, he bore a greatshield with the sigil of eight outwardly directed arrows: Chaos's champion had come to Hogwarts. About his neck hung the silver Horn of Destiny.

The white demon opened his eyes and they were crimson. They were hate. The corners of his mouth drew upward in a silky, predator's smirk and those present felt disquiet, as something fundamental in the universe had changed.

The Giants, disturbed by the newcomer's aura, stopped in their tracks, their berserker rage drained from them as if their femoral arteries had been sliced. Dementors and Vampires, sensing an alpha beyond Voldemort, arrested their approach. Death Eaters quailed as the being's brilliant, crimson irises flashed toward them.

The albino did not appear to speak, yet a voice was heard by all. “Tom Riddle," it thundered. "I warned you. Strike me down and I shall return a thousand times stronger than before.”

Hope found traction in the august hearts of Hogwarts's defenders, for Harry Potter had returned.

He was a god.

And he was mightily pissed off.

 

I think I speak for everyone in the Harry Potter Universe (not just DLP) when I say you have to post the 50k you have written immediately. Otherwise, we will all be forced to remind it of you in every post you make on the site until you do. Don't worry; we'll be doing this for you.

Anyway, I think it's dope as fuck.

 

I've never read Michael Moorcock, but it sounds and looks good. If you don't post it, I'll hound your posts alongside Averis.

 

The series was my favorite in fantasy when I was growing up, even beating out Tolkein. It featured one of the great anti-heroes in the genre, though he's a bit emo for my tastes nowadays.

Let me give it a once-over this weekend and see how close it is to acceptable. (I need a break from the other project I'm working on).

 

Pers, between that snippet (Moorcock's work is excellent) and Dagger and Rose II, you've got a lot of shit to answer for. Update now, please.

 

I can't write worth a damn when it comes to fan fiction, but I did have this as a Idea of a HP/Mass Effect crossover.


Post-DH, No Epilogue. Post-ME, Pre-ME2.

Becoming the Master of Death was more then just a name. Unable to age after uniting the three Hallows, Harry has to watch the ones he loves grow old and die while he himself is trapped as a 17 year old for all eternity.

In the last 187 years after Voldemort's defeat magic has evolved with the help of Science. Biotics is what wizards and witches are being called(Muggle-Borns who are found screened at birth by the worlds governments). With the use of implants are they able to harness their power to their will(Like wands, obviously).

Harry has faded into the muggle world more then 150 years ago, tired of the fame, and the deaths of those he cares for. In the year 2160, hoping to find peace in a new place he become one of the first Human civilians to come to the Citadel. Finding kindred spirits in the long lived Asari species, he is offered training to help advance his magic and teaching in the ways of Asari Natural Biotics on Illium.


Now that's my idea. Harry would go on to be recruited by Shepard to stop the Collectors. If there was a pairing, I would have had it with an Asari.

Dunno if anyone would find it interesting, but it was a idea floating around in my head since playing ME2. If anyone wants to pick this up and give it a try you are welcome to as long as you tell me where it's posted so I can read it.

 

Harry would be several decades older than Dumbledore. Why would shepherd recruit an old man for a military mission?

Also: Wizards as biotics? Biotics are shit. They can move things with their minds, and that's about it. The greatest biotic in history wouldn't be able to take a fourth year student.

And a pairing? A guy that old is definitely not getting it up.

 

Read the post again, he says he is stuck as seventeen.

 

To be fair, half the crew are getting on a bit. The Asari you recruit in both games are several hundred years old, and Wrex from ME1 is the same. The Salarian in ME2 counts as well, since he's near the end of his life cycle. I'm fairly certain that humans live longer due to medical advances as well. EDIT: although as RJL333 points out, it's not relevant.

I'd agree with you on the biotic thing though. Maybe not a fourth year, but even canon Harry could take on a biotic; Harry with several hundred years more experience would probably only break sweat against Soverign itself.

 

To have this work, it wouldn't do to have magicians become Biotics. Maybe they left earth for their own planet, and Harry, tired of being seen as a long-lived Messiah, chose a life without them. Maybe he was tired of their old ways unchanging?

That opens the universe up to something like nonjon did with Brown coat, green eyes. Have Harry inserted into the universe. Then take it away with the ME 2 plot.

@Fiat. I think you missed another detail there.

 

First thing I wanted to mention: Yeah, I needed to read the post over again. Didn't notice the 'perpetually 17' plot device.

Secondly, Salarians live to about fourty. That's their maximum life span.

Thirdly, (is that a word?) biotics don't exactly have amazing powers. They can create shields (protego) freeze people (petrificus totalus) blast people backwards (reducto) make people float (wingardium leviosa) can warp space to harm people (this one doesn't really have an equivalent spell that school-children learn, but pretty much any curse can harm people) and create a singularity (again, no exact equivalent in school-children spells)

While there are two things a (ME1) biotic can do that a fifth year can't, a wizard can transfigure things. They can make fire from nothing. They can cast curses that cause instant death with two words. cause enough pain to drive someone totally mad with two syllables.

And that's ignoring their capabilities against synthetics. You can't summon a wizard's heart through his chest, but you could probably do it to some of the sophisticated machinery inside a geth.

(note: I only listed biotic abilities from ME1. I don't have ME2 and have only played it a little, as an engineer.)

 

To your second point: I know. Moridin is about 35, I think. Therefore, he's a very old Salarian, just as Harry (without the perpetually 17 thing) would be a very old human.

 

Samara is nearly a thousand years old when she is introduced in ME2. I agree with the Biotics thing, but I what I was going with

Is that instead of like a Mcgonagall going to talk to the muggle-borns b4 Hogwarts, the government is screening the birth of every human baby after Biotics were discovered hoping to have unknown Natural Biotics like other Alien races have. These newer Muggle-borns would know nothing of the magical world.

Harry on the other hand would have the implants to give him controle over Biotics added on to his magic. There is atleast one Biotic power I have seen that I haven't heard a spell from the HP-verse do b4 and thats have a blast of energy lock onto a target and is able to curve around cover if aimed right. Plus, in the game as in the HP books more and more Biotic powers(or spells in the HP books case) are being shown as of each installment.

I know I really didn't give a lot of detail when I wrote that summery out but it was just what I had running in my head and hadn't all the fine details stamped out. Wasn't going to write it myself, so why bother, right? I would just love to see a good crossover for these two and hoped getting my idea out there would make people think about doing one at least even if they thought my idea was crap.

 

No, I understood that it wouldn't be like hp wizards = natural biotics, who also know magic from hogwarts & can harness it through the implants.

But Mass Effect biotic powers are extremely underpowered when compared to HP wizards. Why the hell would the want to use implants rather than wands, if it makes them so much weaker?

And yeah, I know. Samara is ancient, but her species lives to a thousand years old. She's still in fairly good condition, physically. With your perpetually 17 year old Harry, that's not an issue, but when I read it the first time, it seemed like a Dumbledore-esque Harry running around, fighting aliens while trying not to break his hip. I misread, though, so it's irrelevant.

and: Dude, use the spell check and use real english. Shit like 'b4' and 'summery' will really piss off some people on this site. I don't really care, but the majority will.

 

Wow, so people can say stuff like lol, moar, hawt, plz, and shit like that but I shorten before to b4 and all hell is gonna break loose? Also, misspelling 1 fucking letter, summery where it should be summary is a cause to be bitched at? really?Really?REALLY? I did do a spell check btw, that's ''by the way' in real English, and summery is an actual word so it over looked it.

 

We have strict rules on spelling/grammar standards on this forum. If you don't like them you're more than welcome to get the fuck out.

 

I was just trying to prevent him from getting raped here about the grammar. I already said I didn't give a shit. Also: Oz, I forgot a letter, replaced an 'and' with an ampersand, forgot to capitalize a proper noun, and shortened two words into the first letter of each word, as is done with many fandoms. (i.e BTVS, SG:A) How exactly does that make my post as bad as his?

Whatever. I said in the initial post that I don't give a crap about his grammar, but I was trying to warn him before someone decided to make a big deal of it somewhere down the line.

BioHazard: Harden the fuck up. Someone criticizes your use of 'b4' and you get butthurt? Fail.

 

I've been mulling over an idea for an Unspeakable Potter fic. It'd be a semi-cross with Fringe. I like the idea of Harry investigating things which stretch the normal laws of magic. A series of events that seem to follow a greater pattern...Too bad I can't think of a decent pattern otherwise I might actually try writing this fic unlike the other hundred ideas I came up with and never had any intention of writing.
