Just to let everyone know, this is a little update on a few idea's people have been PM'ing me by asking questions.
The Famous 'Observe' Ability: Personally I think this is an ability Harry should have, but like the other ideas I have mentioned, I believe it should evolved, this is because if he starts off too early in the with it, its OP'ed too much, and if he gets it later on, I think his skills are too weak by the time he gets to Hogwarts.
To even this idea out, Harry should start off with the skill 'Examine'; this can be because Harry was examining objects with his hands, (i.e. terrible glasses), got the skill and starts to level it up by examining everything around him. In order to limit the ability and make it different from observe, to use this skill he needs to physically hold an object.
Then after a while, the Skill can evolve to 'Observe', which does the same thing as 'Examine', however, he can do it from a distance (you can limit the distance to whatever).
You can then evolve 'Observe' to 'Magical Observe', which enables him to distinguish certain enchantments on the object.
Example: Harry gingerly accepted the wand from Ollivander, as soon as he grasped the handle; he felt warmth spread up his arm and throughout his body, whilst a shower of sparks erupted from the end of the wand.
Curious, Harry held the wand to his face to 'Examine' it: Holly wood, 11 inch long.
'Observe' would give the same info without touching it, and 'Magical Observe' would show that it had a Phoenix tail feather as a core.
