There might be a fanfiction where the DADA professor is actually an undercover wizard from a far - off land. He brings in unique teaching methods and magical creatures from his homeland, which both fascinates and challenges the students at Hogwarts.
There are fanfictions where the DADA professor is an old wizard who has fought in many magical wars. He has countless stories to tell and his teaching is filled with real - life examples of facing dark magic. His wisdom and experience make him a very appealing DADA professor in these fanfictions.
One great fanfiction could be where the new Dada teacher is secretly a time - traveling wizard from a future Hogwarts. He uses his knowledge of future dark magic threats to prepare the students in a really unique way.
Maybe the new Dada teacher was once a student who was deeply affected by a dark magic encounter. So, he came back to teach DADA to make sure no other students have to go through what he did.
Well, it could be that Harry's hands - on experiences from his own time at Hogwarts make his teaching really engaging. He might share his encounters with dark creatures and how he overcame them. This could make Tom more aware of the practical side of DADA.
In this fanfiction, Sanguini could start by explaining the history of vampires in relation to the wizarding world's dark arts. He could talk about how vampires have been both feared and sometimes used as allies in battles against the dark side. Then, he could move on to practical lessons, like teaching students how to identify a vampire's lair and what precautions to take when approaching one. His lessons might also include how to use vampire fangs in certain potions for defensive purposes, making DADA a much more interesting and dangerous subject.
Luna Lovegood could be an interesting choice. She has a very unique view of the wizarding world. As a DADA teacher, she would teach in her own offbeat way. For example, she might introduce the students to the idea of defending against invisible creatures that most wizards don't believe in. Her lessons would be full of creativity and would make the students think outside the box.
One possible plot could be that the new DADA teacher has a mysterious past related to an ancient dark magic artifact. He or she initially seems friendly but gradually the students start to notice strange behavior. For example, they might find the teacher secretly researching in the Forbidden Forest at night. This could lead to the students, especially Harry and his friends, trying to uncover the truth about the teacher and in the process, they discover a plot to bring back an old dark wizard.
One possible plotline could be that Harry, with his knowledge of the Dark Arts from his own experiences, tries to show Tom the true nature of defensive magic. He might start by teaching basic spells like the Shield Charm. Harry could also share his insights on how to resist the allure of the Dark Arts, which is something Tom struggles with in his later years as Voldemort.
As the teaching progresses, they could develop a sort of mentor - mentee relationship. Harry would be constantly trying to steer Tom away from the Dark Arts, while Tom would be trying to learn as much as he can from Harry. However, there would always be an underlying tension because of Tom's future as Voldemort. Their relationship might be a complex dance of trust and suspicion.
