J. K. Rowling owns the Harry Potter universe.

I thank everyone for taking the time to read my story. Please follow if you enjoy this story.

For those interested, a few guidelines for this fic

This is a translation, which allows me to give a lot of information about my thought process in creating an AU universe .

1 Family related information

Potter family and their titles

Harry Potter is the son of James Potter and Lily Evans. James Potter is the son of Charlus Potter and Dorea Black. Charlus Potter is the son of Ariana II Dumbledore's aunt. Mark Potter is the older brother of Charlus.

Charlsus grandfather became a Marquis after being a Governor-General. Charlus' father became Marquis by birth. Mark became a Marquis by birth. Charlus became an earl in 1972, after serving two terms as Minister of Magic and defeating a minor dark wizard. James became an earl, after the death of his father.

(I am not certain if the peerage system works like this at all, if it does not, please enjoy my imaginary tale. I tried to look into it, but I may still be wrong.)

1.2 Ariana's family ties

Ariana's aunt was a pure-blood witch and her mother was a squib. Ariana's aunt is married to Charlus Potter's father. Charlus and Mark Potter do not know Ariana, because she did not live in Britain as a child and they are much older than Ariana.

2. Magic related information

2.1. Difficulty of performing spells

You will read of different levels of spells throughout the story, the spell level chosen when writing is done on purpose. In this story I will divide spells in six levels of difficulty:

1. Basic level - Everything under OWL

2. Below Average- OWL level and some NEWT level spells. Berty the house-elf

3. Normal- NEWT level to auror proverbs. Most spells an adult would use. Molly Weasley

4. Above average level -spells that is just out of range for some adults and spells most adults struggle with. Sirius, Abeforth

5. Expert level- Complicated spells that most adults can not do. Example Lupin, Snape, Slughorn.

6. Master level- Complicated, powerful and very rare spells. Top 200 wizards and witches in the world can use this type of spells.

Can do any master spell-Voldemort, Dumbledore, Euremus (Chapter 1), Lily Evans(Ariana)

Can do a few master spells- Ariana Dumbledore(before she traveled back),Flitwick, Moody, Bellatrix, Malfoy

2.1. 1 Battles (duels)

Battles (duels) - Spells compete with one level above them, but has little effect on two levels above the spell level. examples:

An above average spell (level 4) will quickly be overwhelmed by master level spell (level 6). Harry's first year spells (level 1) will do almost nothing to an adult's shield spells (level 3+). Ordinary fifth-year spells (level 2) can not be used to duel Voldemort's followers (level 4+).

I hope this system will bring better balance to my story. Age and experience matter, no 15 year old will be able to do master level spells by training a few weeks.

2.2.Different types of magic

2.2.1 Wild and accidental magic

Wild magic is not the same as accidental magic, in this story. Wild magic is poor formed magic, because the person did not give the spell a clear form, the spell does what it wants. Accidental magic is accidentally formed for a specific purpose.

2.2.2 Spell components

There are four components to a successful spell:

Belief that something was going to happen

A source for the necessary magic power

Magical power needs to be able to move from the source to a point where it can be formed or released

Necessary knowledge, skill and focus to do the spell.

2.2.3 Different types of magic created by the four components

Most people have an aptitude for 1 of these 4. Experts and masters have an aptitude for 2.

Creative magic - This magic is strong in people who believe something is going to happen. This form of magic is generally poorly developed in the magical world. In the 1980s there were 100 persons worldwide who was experts with this type of magic. Takes at least 30 seconds to do a spell infused with this magic. Example of this magic: Lily's protection over Harry.

Natural magic – Forming your magic into a form you find in nature. People who can store lot magic have a natural aptitude for this type of magic. 2 000 people worldwide with an expert skill level, but everyone has a basic skill. 4 spells a second, but even more is possible for masters. Example: The wards that protect Hogwarts are infused with the magic that are naturally present.

Wild magic – Created by continuous flow without forming your magic. People who can easily let their magic flow from their core, has a aptitude for this magic. Takes 4 seconds to do a spell. A thousand people worldwide with an expert skill level, especially dark wizards. The horcrux's attacking Harry and irreversible curses.

Arcane magic - A person with knowledge of many spells and a strong focus have an aptitude for arcane magic. Most adult wizards and witches have mastered the above-average level. Two spells a second. Example: What students learn at Hogwarts is mostly oriented towards knowledge and focus(in this story).

2.4 Transfiguration basic guidelines

Levels for transfiguration from easy to difficult:

1 elemental- earth fire water air

2 Other elements- iron, wood

3 plants

4 animals and muggles,

5 magical plants

6 magical animals

7 magical people

Strength of spells needed for each level

1st level basic

2nd level basic

3rd level Owl

4th level Normal

5th level above average proverb

6th and 7th level same level changes only. expert spells

6th and 7th level-go back a level- Master

Examples of changes this system makes: Draco's can not easily be turned into an animal, a wizard's head can not easily be turned into a plant by transfiguration. Draco can not conjure a snake in his second year. Ordinary non-magical objects such as steel are not a permanent shelter in a duel, you can easily turn it into air.

2. 5 Taking possession of a wand

Possession of an enemy's wand will not be acquired as easy as it did in the original series. There are many clever explanations for what happened in canon, but I found the system unbelievable. You can not take all of their wands(even one they don't know about) if you win them in a duel. Wands in this story will have some kind of limited intelligence, they are more like a pet than a object. They bond with their master over time.

Two ways of taking possession by force: You have to kill the person, or do a specific expert level spell intentionally to take someone wand.

Other ways to gain permanent possession- Voluntarily give your wand away through a small ritual. If the owner died and the wand has no owner anymore.

Temporary possession given- When a wand is voluntarily given to use.

2.6 Potions

In the fic people will not spend days creating a normal potion, because they have pots that accelerate the brewing process. The refining of a potion to strengthen it or change it for a specific purpose may take years.

3. General

3.1 Molly Weasley

In the fic Mrs. Weasley will not be able to duel Bellatrix, she is a witch with normal magical powers. It is something of the original story that bothers me.

3.2. Owls

Owls can not find anyone, anywhere.

3.3. Animagus forms

I assume it is difficult to impossible to do spells in your normal animagus form.

Magical animagus forms are uncommon. Can do wandless non-verbal spells with same ease a wizard/witch normally can.

3.4 Dumbledore having a child when his gay

Grindelwald cursed Dumbledore to be confused about his sexual orientation, after Dumbledore broke his heart. The curse was lifted when Grindelwald died.

3.5 Wizard population

The wizard population is equal to 1% of the muggle population in the United kingdom.

There are many wizardry schools. Hogwarts is a school for talented children. Hogwarts have 1200 students. Hogwarts will have around sixty teachers. Most Hogwarts staff will have children, Flitwick have half a dozen.

Almost everyone have living family- cousins, uncles, grandparents.
