One popular theme is the crossover of characters. For example, imagining Frodo and Harry Potter meeting and how they would interact given their different yet equally challenging quests. Another theme is exploring different character backstories that were not fully delved into in the original works, like the early years of Severus Snape in Harry Potter or the family history of Aragorn in LOTR. Also, alternative endings are quite common, such as what if Voldemort won in Harry Potter or if Sauron had regained the One Ring in LOTR.
There are 'Lotr Harry Potter fanfiction' that focus on crossovers for epic battles. Imagine Voldemort's Death Eaters against Sauron's Orcs. These stories often play with the power levels of different magical beings from both series. Some fanfictions also explore the idea of Hogwarts being in Middle - earth or vice versa, which completely changes the dynamics of both the wizarding world and Middle - earth.
One popular 'Harry Potter LOTR Fanfiction' is 'The Fellowship of the Ring meets Hogwarts'. It combines the magical worlds of Middle - earth and the wizarding world in an exciting adventure. The characters from both universes interact in unique ways, like Frodo and Harry Potter teaming up to face a new dark threat.
One common theme is the discovery of self. In these fanfictions, the Animagus often has to figure out their true nature through their transformation, similar to how characters in both Harry Potter and LOTR grow and discover themselves.
One common theme is the exploration of different magical systems. Since 'Harry Potter' has its own set of spells and magic, and 'LotR' has a more ethereal and nature - based magic, fanfictions often explore how these two can co - exist or clash. Another theme could be the idea of friendship across different worlds, like how Luna's character might form bonds with characters in Middle - earth.
One more theme is the exploration of different cultures. The wizarding world in Harry Potter has its own unique culture, with things like Quidditch and the Houses. Middle - earth in LOTR has different races like hobbits, elves, and dwarves. In the crossovers, characters get to experience and learn about these different cultures. For instance, Hermione might be fascinated by the elvish language and lore, while Legolas could be intrigued by the spells at Hogwarts.
One popular theme is the 'what - if' scenarios. For example, what if Harry had been sorted into Slytherin instead of Gryffindor? Another common theme is romance, like Harry and Hermione getting together instead of Ron and Hermione. There are also a lot of fanfictions that explore the backstories of minor characters in more detail.
One idea could be that the One Ring somehow finds its way into the wizarding world. Maybe a Hogwarts student stumbles upon it during a field trip in an ancient forest. Another could be a wizard or witch from Harry Potter's world traveling to Middle - earth to study their different forms of magic. A third idea is that the characters from LOTR end up at Hogwarts to seek help in fighting Sauron, and they learn about magic wands and spells.
The theme of time - travel is quite common in 'Harry Potter' fanfiction. Writers might send characters back in time to change certain events, or they use time - travel as a way to understand the past better. Also, the idea of magical inheritance is popular. Fanfictions might explore how a character discovers a long - lost family magic or a special power that was passed down through generations.
Some popular themes include alternate universes where the characters have different roles or relationships. For example, a story where Harry is sorted into Slytherin instead of Gryffindor. Another theme is exploring the backstories of minor characters in more detail, like Neville Longbottom's family history. Friendship development among the main characters is also a common theme, showing how their relationships grow and change over time at Hogwarts.
One popular theme is 'What if' scenarios. For example, what if Harry had been sorted into Slytherin? Another is exploring the backstories of minor characters like Neville's parents. And relationships are also a big theme, such as the friendship between the trio in more depth or romantic relationships that might have been hinted at but not fully explored in the original books.
