Well, in a 'Harry Potter raised in Potter Manor' fanfiction, we might see Harry having a different kind of upbringing. He could be surrounded by portraits of his ancestors who could offer him advice and wisdom. The manor itself might hold hidden chambers or libraries filled with rare magical knowledge. This could lead to Harry being more confident and self - assured when he finally goes to Hogwarts.
If Harry was raised at Potter Manor in fanfiction, it would change a great deal. He could have a more stable support system. Instead of being bullied and neglected, he'd be surrounded by the remnants of his family's magic. The manor itself might have a library filled with rare magical tomes that he could study, and perhaps there would be a family - appointed tutor for him. This would make him more confident and knowledgeable when he enters Hogwarts, and his relationships with his classmates might be different as he wouldn't have the same insecurities.
The fanfiction might explore how Harry's relationship with the wizarding world is different. Growing up in Potter Manor, he could be seen as a more prominent figure from a young age. The manor itself could hold hidden chambers filled with challenges and rewards. Harry could stumble upon a chamber that tests his Potter lineage, like a series of magical trials. This would not only strengthen his magical abilities but also deepen his connection to his family name and the responsibilities that come with it.
Harry's character development would be significantly different. In Potter Manor, he'd be surrounded by reminders of his family's greatness. This would instill a sense of pride in him. He might be more adventurous as he explores the manor and discovers hidden chambers and magic. His relationships with others would also be different. He'd be more likely to make friends easily as he has a stronger sense of self, and he might be more assertive in standing up for what he believes in, having been raised in an environment that values the Potter name and legacy.
The most obvious deviation would be his upbringing. Instead of being bullied and neglected by the Dursleys, he'd be in a nurturing environment. This would likely make him less timid and more self - confident. Also, his knowledge of the wizarding world before Hogwarts would be far greater.
His friends from Hogwarts, like Ron and Hermione, are likely to help. Ron could bring his family's practical knowledge of wizarding homes and Hermione would contribute with her extensive research skills.
Well, in fanfiction, Neville Longbottom could be one of the visitors. He and Harry could exchange gardening tips as they explore the manor's gardens. Additionally, Dumbledore's portrait might be magically transported to Potter Manor, and he could offer his wisdom and guidance to Harry as he lives in the manor. And of course, Hagrid might come with some magical creatures to show Harry, adding more excitement to the manor.
He'd be more self - reliant. Without the Dursleys' neglect, he wouldn't have that initial sense of being unwanted. He might be more open - minded towards the wizarding world from the start. For instance, he wouldn't be as shocked by magic as he was in the original story.
Perhaps a long - lost relative of the Potter family who feels they were unjustly excluded from inheriting the manor. This relative could be jealous of Harry's status and the wealth associated with the manor. They might use dark magic to try and claim what they think is rightfully theirs, leading to a battle of magic and loyalty within the Potter family and among Harry's friends.
In the 'Harry Potter finds Potter Manor' fanfiction, Harry's journey to the manor could be a very emotional one. He has grown up not knowing much about his family heritage. When he finds the manor, it could be in a dilapidated state. He then starts to restore it, using his magic skills. As he delves deeper into the manor, he discovers rooms that hold memories of his ancestors. There might be a room dedicated to his parents, where he can see their early years through enchanted memories. This discovery could strengthen his connection to his family and give him a new sense of identity within the wizarding world.
