Disclaimer: We don't own Harry Potter. Or the cliches that come with the fandom.

Following on from last lesson (in which we taught you how to write summaries, A/Ns, and summarized a little bit of how to write different types of genres, as well as teaching you how to create your own OC. Today, however, we will be taking on a whole new different type of challenge: constructing the characters Harry Potter and Ginny Weasley in your very own fanfiction.

Since this is your fanfic, you can do whatever you like with the characters (in this case, Harry Potter). Having a rich and powerful Harry Potter is a very underused plotline, so we would strongly recommend that. I mean, why would the Potter fortune ever be limited? His vault at Gringotts is never too empty, always filled with expensive paintings and expensive family heirlooms and expensive antiques and expensive jewellery and expensive furniture and expensive crests and of course, loads of money! (Basically lots of expensive stuff.)

Harry Potter, despite being a mediocre student in JK Rowling's actual series, is the smartest wizard in his year (even better than Hermione, obviously - haven't you seen that scene in the books where he coaches her and Ron how to do homework but then loses patience and stomps off to a girl's toile...I mean, boy's toilet?). Here is an example of what you should write when you are describing his talents:

omg!1! liek hrary poter hav the abiiity to, liek, turn into animlas or somethin, o rite he is mettttamooorphugus or animeaaaagus or smth, anywayz in the frist year, isntead of siting with rolnad wesleyy on the express of hogwartes, he didnt ned to tak any trian COS HE TELEPORTTED DERE SUCKERS! ahah an he can becone a pheonix and a stag and a grim and a unicorn and loads of otherr magica animels!

When he was born, he was already fully capable of wandlessly casting spells, silently casting spells, casting spells during his sleep, controlling all four elements of life, bringing people back to life, casting wards that were stronger than Hogwarts' wards, casting Legilimency and Occlumency, casting the unforgivable curses only about a million times better than Bellatrix herself, creating another planet for everyone to live in, stopping the power of the sun, changing the lifespan of every other living being around him, and of course, casting a normal spell...around 10 times more powerful that is. By the way, Harry happens to also be a direct descendant of all 4 founders.

Also, I cannot stress the importance of always remembering that Harry Potter is a god (Voldemort? What do you mean a god is supposed to defeat Voldemort in the first try?). A god of handsomeness, talent, creativity and wisdom combined in a stunning beacon of appeal and sexiness. This, of course, is precisely the reason why all the girls - and some guys too (yes, even McGonagall and Snape) - will always drool over him and LOVE him to death. Here's an demonstration of what you should write to describe his harem of followers (well, a particular one, at least):

"heer hv liek 259,087,400 house pts, GRYFFINDOR DA BEST, slydarin REAL sucks, like yolo and swag, u won house cup, u won qudditch, u so talented, can i kiss u plzzzz" snape propssed, a ring box in his hand.

By the way, even though Harry and Ginny have been flirting for all their school years, dated a little, married each other, have a family in the canon version of Harry Potter, that doesn't matter. Always ship them with different people to keep up the trend. Harry dating a professor who died only about 982 centuries ago? They're definitely soulmates. Ginny and someone she would like to murder would also totally have an happy ending.

Speaking of Ginny, let's move on to the next lesson - constructing Ginny Weasley's character. She seems like your typical fiery, rash (sorry, I meant overly impulsive...) redhead from the Weasley family, but you can actually add a lot of depth to her character.

If you're deciding to go with a canon pairing like Ginny/Harry, we have some advice for you (yay you)! Remember that Ginny is never ever ever ever the one who stays at home taking care of the kids and waiting for her beloved husband to come back. Also, she practically never has a Quidditch-related career, so feel free to use that idea.

Here's some more advice about how she takes part in usual Gryffindor-exclusive/Golden Trio-exclusive friendly discussions. She's never ever ever that 'evil friend' who plays matchmaker to... about every single person Hermione falls in love with in every single Hermione fanfiction, nor is she the person who casts eeevil spells to force Hermione to confess her love or anything.

Ginny may seem like a easy character to describe, but this is actually not the case! You may think that you can just add "red hair, blue eyes", but you have to use this most original and non stereotypical way of describing her physical attributes.

Giny Wesaley. flameng red hair, sparkly sparekly blue blue eyes (#so cute!111!111!), also her eye alwayz hv like mnay mnay differant emootins,, AND dey look like beautifol beutiful blue blu blee blue blue bleu blue blue bue bleu blue blu sky, which is vary very vwry batiful!

I mean, you always have to emphasize the fact that someone's physical attributes stand out, right? I mean, who cares if you repeat the word 'blue' fifteen times (well, three quarters of them are totally not mispelled, but...), am I right? This only makes her physical attributes more...batiful!

(Okay, that was such a horrible pun it wasn't even a pun.)

Anyway, this chapter was suggested by datbenik513 (we hope you enjoyed it! xD), so have a virtual cookie for giving us some prompts for the Harry Potter character-constructing bit. Also, if you have any requests or suggestions, feel free to tell us in a message or review! :)
