New characters introduced in fanfiction can also become popular. For instance, a mysterious new magic - user who comes to town with a different set of magical abilities. This character could befriend the main girls and introduce them to a whole new side of magic. Writers might create a complex backstory for this character, like they are on a quest to find a missing magical artifact and need the help of the Just Add Magic gang. This kind of character can add a fresh perspective and new plot twists to the fanfiction.
Often, the main protagonist from the original story who has a connection to magic remains popular. They might be further developed in the fanfiction.

Darth Vader is also a favorite. His complex relationship with the Force, being both a powerful Sith and once a Jedi, offers a lot of room for creative exploration in fanfiction. Maybe in some stories, he has a different redemption arc due to some unique'magic of the force' element.

They could be in a small town where strange things are happening, and they are the only ones who can solve it. There are also stories that revolve around their friendship turning into something more romantic. Writers often explore how they navigate this new aspect of their relationship, dealing with the emotions and the reactions of those around them.
Hermione Granger often features prominently. Her intelligence and thirst for knowledge make her a great candidate to explore shadow magic. She might be the one to uncover ancient texts about it and start experimenting.
The mysterious transfer students are also likely to be popular characters. They come from unknown places with their own unique magical traditions. Their different ways of using magic can intrigue readers. Maybe they have a special power that no one else at the academy has, which makes them stand out.
Neville Longbottom is another likely popular character. Since he has a natural affinity for Herbology in the original series, in plant magic fanfiction, he might be portrayed as a master of plant magic, using his skills to solve various problems or even fight against dark forces with the help of magical plants.
Often, characters like Hermione might be popular in Harry Potter Magic Architect fanfiction. She is known for her intelligence and love of learning, so it's easy to imagine her delving into the study of magical architecture. Harry Potter himself could also be a part of such stories, perhaps using his Gryffindor courage to explore dangerous or uncharted areas of magical building design. And then there's Ron, who might provide the comical relief while also having some interesting ideas about practical aspects of magical architecture.
Kakashi is another favorite. His calm and collected demeanor makes him an interesting character to insert into a Naruto - magic - world scenario. He could be a mentor figure, guiding the younger characters in understanding and using magic, or he could be on his own journey of discovery regarding magic's potential in the ninja world.
