There's a fanfic where the tattoo artist is a descendant of an old wizarding family. They create tattoos that are like protective spells. For example, a tattoo of a Patronus might actually ward off Dementors. The story delves into how this unique skill gets the attention of the Ministry of Magic and how the character navigates the wizarding world while still being part of the Muggle - associated tattoo industry.
One interesting fanfic could be 'The Ink of Hogwarts'. In this story, the tattoo artist has a special connection to the wizarding world. They use their magic-infused ink to create tattoos that can have real magical effects on the wearer. It's a really cool concept that combines the art of tattooing with the magic of Harry Potter.
There's a fanfic called 'The Tattooed Wizard'. In this story, the tattoo artist is a wizard in hiding. He uses his art to secretly communicate with other magical beings. It has an interesting plot that keeps you hooked as you learn about his double life.
Well, 'The Mark of the Half - Blood Tattoo Artist' is another fanfic worth checking out. It's a bit longer and more detailed. The story follows a tattoo artist who discovers they have a special ability to create tattoos that can actually give powers to the demigods. It's full of action, adventure, and of course, the cool concept of magical tattoos.
Ask around in Harry Potter fan groups. There are many online communities where fans discuss all things related to the series. Someone might have had a similar tattoo done and can recommend an artist. You can also check out local tattoo parlors and ask if any of their artists are fans of Harry Potter or are open to working from fanfic concepts.
Memory - enhancing tattoos are also possible. The tattoo artist could create a tattoo that, when activated, allows the wearer to relive a specific memory. It could be like a Pensieve but on your skin, perhaps a tattoo of a significant event in the wizarding world.
Another idea is that the tattoo artist uses the essence of magical creatures to create tattoos. For example, a phoenix - inspired tattoo might give the wearer the ability to be reborn from ashes in a symbolic way within the story. This combines the art of tattooing with the rich mythology of Harry Potter.
One interesting fanfic could be 'The Vampire Potter'. In this, Harry's transformation into a vampire brings a whole new dynamic to the wizarding world. His vampiric abilities, like enhanced speed and strength, make him a formidable force against the Dark Arts. He also has to deal with the prejudice from some wizards who fear his new nature.
There's a fanfic where Harry's long hair is part of a disguise. He's on a secret mission in the wizarding world, and the long hair helps him blend in with a certain group. It's really exciting as it shows a different side of Harry's resourcefulness.
One popular 'Harry Potter finds Atlantis' fanfic is 'The Atlantis Adventure of Harry Potter' on FanFiction.net. It has an interesting plot where Harry discovers a hidden portal in Hogwarts that leads to Atlantis. The story does a great job of combining the magic of the Harry Potter world with the mystery of Atlantis.
I really like '5sos in the Wizarding World'. In this fanfic, the boys of 5sos are magically transported to the wizarding world. They have to learn magic and deal with all the challenges that come with it, like facing dark wizards. It's a fun read because it shows how they would adapt to this completely different world using their own unique personalities. And there are some great references to both 5sos's music and Harry Potter lore.
Well, 'In the Footsteps of Godric' is another good one. It follows a group of students who, through a series of magical events, start to experience visions of Godric Gryffindor's life. They then go on a journey to understand what these visions mean and how they can use the knowledge of Gryffindor's past to better the present situation at Hogwarts.
