I'm wondering if anybody wants to do a Harry Potter/The Crow crossover. I'm reading a Buffy/Crow crossover and it's fantastic, so it got me thinking as to how much better Harry Potter as the Crow, or hell even Sirius/Cedric as the Crow would be.

 

You may want to give more details to it and lay it out in a challenge format, it'll generally get more people to look at it properly then.

At the moment all I know aobut what the story you want is, is that its a crossover with The Crow... Possibly with <insert random character/s> as the Crow.

Gotta be more detailed you know .

Ok, you want challenge form? How about this. The challenge is to make either Harry OR Cedric as The Crow. If you choose Harry, he must have been graphically tortured before being killed.

If you choose Cedric, you must come up with a reason WHY he would want to help, and why he couldn't rest in peace.

The story must be at least 60k words. I would prefer for there to be no slash, but if you must, you can have it. Finally, I want Dumbledore to be Manipulative/Evil, but with a reason as to WHY he's Manipulative/Evil.

As this story is a crossover, you can have more than just Crow/HP (EG, you can even have the other Crows make an appearance).

Good luck and I look forward to seeing the stories.

 

Um, no offence, but that's a plot bunny; not a challenge. Is the whole purpose of the story to have Harry or Cedric be a gothic, self-mutilating, practically immortal, ex-dead guy? Cause that's just the same sort of idea as making him a vampire, or a werewolf. I assume, because of the actual The Crow film, that you just want the one who becomes the Crow to go on a killing spree with Death Eaters as the main targets (I've never seen the newer ones or the TV show, and I've never read any comics bar Beano & Dandy ).

Have a look in the Ideas vs Concepts thread for an idea of what a challenge is like.

If you want to do this, please take what has been said: expand on the idea.
Give us specifics. Don't just throw the idea out there.

Though, you know, this does remind me of an AU bunny I had:

In the graveyard, Voldemort does something wrong such as... hitting the portkey with an AK. This was somehow (didn't detail it) supposed to turn Cedric into Harry's immortal zombie servant. Like from 3×3 Eyes (yes, an anime), Harry would contain Cedric's soul thus turning Cedric into an uber regenerating 'zombie' (Eastern, not Resident Evil).

I really must get back to that...

 

Dunno if it's any good but...
