Synopsis

Updates: 2-3 chapters a day excluding weekends In a world where the Peverell name has been forgotten and their legendary magic is thought to be extinct, a lone heir rises from the shadows to reclaim his family's powerful legacy. Damian Peverell, the last scion of the ancient and illustrious Peverell line, was orphaned at a young age and raised in solitude within the haunting grandeur of Peverell Castle. Surrounded by house elves who serve him with unwavering loyalty, and mentored by none other than Death himself—known to him as Mortem—Damian's childhood is anything but ordinary. Gifted with prodigious magical talent, an eidetic memory, and a natural mastery of Occlumency and Legilimency, Damian learns the deepest secrets of his family's ancient magic, long before most children even begin their magical education. From the moment he is chosen as the Master of Death, the three Deathly Hallows become his to wield, binding him to a destiny far greater than he could ever imagine. Underneath Peverell Castle lies Azaroth, a dragon of unimaginable power, who grants Damian a drop of his blood, endowing him with extraordinary abilities and a connection to dragonkind. At the age of five, Damian's familiar, Azreal—a rare and majestic black dragon with golden accents—hatches and bonds with him, becoming his lifelong companion. As Damian prepares to step into the world of Hogwarts, three years before the arrival of Harry Potter, he is armed with knowledge, power, and a heritage that could reshape the wizarding world. But with Dumbledore's manipulations lurking in the shadows, and the world unaware of the true power that the Peverell line still holds, Damian must navigate a dangerous path where allies are few, and enemies abound. "Legacy of the Last Peverell" is a tale of ancient magic, powerful legacies, and a young wizard's journey to claim his rightful place in a world that has long forgotten his name. Prepare to be captivated by a story that blends myth and mystery, as Damian Peverell sets out to fulfill his destiny as the Master of Death. Disclaimer: This is a work of fan fiction.

Chapter 1Chapter 1: The Last Peverell

On a stormy night, under the watchful gaze of the ancient stars, Peverell Castle stood tall and imposing, a fortress of dark stone and endless secrets. The castle, perched on an island hidden from the world by ancient wards, had been a bastion of the Peverell family for centuries. The waters surrounding it churned violently, mirroring the tempestuous history of the family within. But tonight, the castle's only occupant slept peacefully, unaware of the monumental changes that fate had set in motion.

Inside the grand, gothic halls of Peverell Castle, where shadows danced and the portraits of long-dead ancestors whispered their ancient wisdom, Damian Peverell stirred in his bed. He was a mere child of four years old, yet his heart and mind carried the weight of a thousand lifetimes. He had been alone in this castle, but never lonely, for the house elves, adorned in finely tailored suits with the Peverell crest, had raised him with love and devotion. And then, of course, there was Mortem, who had recently become a central figure in his life.

Mortem, known to others as Death, was an enigmatic and powerful entity who had appeared to Damian shortly after his parents' mysterious deaths. Cloaked in shadows and possessing an air of ancient wisdom, Mortem had taken on the role of mentor and guardian. He had chosen Damian as his master, a decision that would forever alter the course of history. On that fateful night, he had summoned the three Deathly Hallows—gifts from Death himself to the Peverell brothers long ago—and presented them to Damian. The Elder Wand, the Resurrection Stone, and the Invisibility Cloak, relics of unimaginable power, now belonged to Damian, the last heir of the Peverell line.

As the storm raged outside, Damian awoke, his silver hair falling into his eyes as he sat up in his grand four-poster bed. His purple eyes, glowing with a mystical light, scanned the room. He could feel the presence of Mortem nearby, a comforting, yet formidable, presence that had become a constant in his life. He had become accustomed to the eerie stillness that accompanied Death, and he welcomed it as a part of his existence.

"Good evening, Mortem," Damian said softly, his voice carrying the elegance and grace that belied his tender age.

Mortem, who had been standing by the window, turned to face the young heir. His form was indistinct, more shadow than substance, but his voice was clear and resonant, filled with the weight of ages. "Good evening, Damian. It seems the storm outside mirrors the turmoil within the world. Change is coming."

Damian nodded, his young mind processing the information with the maturity that Mortem had instilled in him. "What sort of change?"

Mortem approached the bed, his presence growing more tangible as he neared. "You are the last of your line, Damian. The world believes the Peverells to be extinct, but you are here, and with you, the legacy of your ancestors lives on. You have much to learn, and much to accomplish. Tonight, we begin a new chapter in your life."

Damian's curiosity sparked, and despite his serious demeanor, the childlike excitement within him bubbled to the surface. "What will we do tonight?"

"Tonight," Mortem began, "we delve into the history of your family, the magic that flows through your veins, and the power you will wield as the Master of Death."

Damian slipped out of bed, the cold stone floor biting at his bare feet, but he didn't mind. He was eager to learn, to immerse himself in the knowledge that would shape him into the wizard he was destined to become. As he followed Mortem through the dark corridors of the castle, the shadows seemed to part for them, revealing the grand tapestries and portraits that adorned the walls.

They arrived at a vast hall, where the largest of the portraits hung—depictions of the three Peverell brothers, Antioch, Cadmus, and Ignotus. The brothers who had outsmarted Death and were rewarded with the Deathly Hallows. Damian stared up at the portraits, his eyes wide with reverence.

"Your ancestors were not merely cunning," Mortem explained. "They were visionaries, pioneers of magic that has been lost to time. You, Damian, are their legacy."

The portraits, as if responding to Mortem's words, began to stir. Antioch, the eldest brother, was the first to speak. His voice was deep and commanding, filled with the authority of a warrior. "You are the last of our blood, Damian. The magic of the Peverells flows within you, stronger than it has in centuries."

Cadmus, the second brother, with a more somber tone, added, "You must understand the responsibilities that come with our gifts. The Resurrection Stone is not to be used lightly."

Ignotus, the youngest and wisest of the three, his voice calm and steady, concluded, "And the Invisibility Cloak, a symbol of humility and wisdom, is a reminder that not all power is meant to be flaunted. Use it wisely, my child."

Damian absorbed their words, feeling the weight of their expectations settling upon his young shoulders. He knew that he was different, that he was destined for something greater than the world could imagine. But he was not afraid. He had been raised with the knowledge that power was not to be feared, but to be understood and respected.

"Tell me more," Damian requested, his voice steady. "I want to know everything."

For the next few hours, Mortem and the portraits of his ancestors told him stories of the Peverell family's history. How they had come to England with the Norman Conquest, bringing with them ancient magics that were older than Hogwarts itself. How they had established themselves as one of the most powerful and influential wizarding families in the world, with ties to the most important magical institutions across Europe and America.

They spoke of the castle, a fortress of magic and mystery, hidden from the world by wards so powerful that even the most skilled wizards could not breach them. The island it stood upon was a place of ancient power, a nexus of magical energy that had sustained the Peverell family for centuries. The castle was a reflection of its inhabitants—dark, mysterious, and powerful.

As the night wore on, Damian learned of the dragon that slumbered beneath the castle, Azaroth, a creature of ancient magic and immense power. Mortem explained how, when the time was right, Damian would receive a gift from Azaroth—a drop of the dragon's blood that would enhance his magical abilities and grant him powers that few could comprehend. And when he turned five, a dragon egg would hatch, and the creature within would become his familiar, a bond that would last a lifetime.

Damian's eyes sparkled with anticipation, but he knew better than to let his excitement cloud his judgment. "I will learn everything, Mortem. I will become worthy of the Peverell name."

Mortem placed a shadowy hand on Damian's shoulder, a rare gesture of affection from the entity. "You already are, my young master. But there is much work to be done."

As the storm began to abate, the first light of dawn filtered through the windows of the grand hall, casting a pale glow on the faces of the Peverell brothers. Damian, with the guidance of Mortem and the wisdom of his ancestors, was ready to begin his journey. The journey that would lead him to become the most powerful wizard the world had ever known, the true Master of Death.

And so, Damian's education began in earnest. He would spend the next years of his life mastering the ancient magics of his family, studying under the watchful eyes of the house elves, the portraits of his ancestors, and Mortem himself. He would learn of the Peverell's influence, their wealth, and their vast holdings across the wizarding world. He would discover the true nature of power, and the responsibilities that came with it.

But most importantly, Damian would grow. He would grow into the role that destiny had set aside for him. A role that would bring him to Hogwarts, where the true adventure would begin.

But for now, in the safety of Peverell Castle, Damian Peverell was just a boy with the weight of a legacy on his shoulders, ready to take his first steps into a world that had no idea what was coming.

A third son of prophecy (Harry Potter AU / Assassin's Creed lore)

Harry Potter with many changes to canon. Hogwarts doesn't start at 11 but three years later and that is by far the biggest change, which brings many other changes naturally with it. First years are older and more mature, but also more headstrong and set in their ways. Seventh years are 20-22 and therefore pretty much college-aged. Harry will have lived with his abusive relatives for three more years. Hermione will be more socially awkward at first, but also more determined to be smarter than everyone. Ron will be more of an insufferable twat because he was with his twin brothers for longer. ----- My MC will be born with knowledge of the Harry Potter franchise and, which he will find out gradually, a special bloodline. He will not have knowledge of the Assassin's Creed games, but I will tell you now, he will have the Isu bloodline like Altair, Ezio, and Desmond - just from a different Isu 'god'. Geographically, I settled on the Norse Pantheon instead of the Roman one like Desmond's lineage, and his magic gives my MC the natural ability to dream of the lives of his ancestors, so he doesn't need an Animus to do it. Any AC plotlines will come much, much later. The modern brotherhood and the templars will not be outwardly knowledgeable about magic, because I don't care to write all the consequences that would bring with it. But the Mentor (leader of the Brotherhood) and the Templar Council will probably know about magic regardless. (Just don't think about it.) MC will hate Dumbledore and fully assumes him to be a secret Dark Lord, which might or might not be true - but by the circumstances of his birth and upbringing, Dumbledore will have certainly earned the animosity the MC feels. All rights to the story's many elements like Harry Potter and the Assassin's Creed lore belong to their respective owners.
