Revan was more remembering than training. And you have to remember that Revan is one of the four greatest force adepts in recorded history. He is that strong. IIRC one person who saw Vader, Anakin and Palpatine in the future but still saw Revan as the manifestation of the force. Revan was brilliant on an entirely diffrent level. he was a an unequaled strategist on the level of Thrawn, a incredible mechanic, he was a nearly unbeatable combatant and an expert pilot. Yes I would say that Revan learning everything in a week is different.

And you are right Soft, Obi-wan WAS unusual for still being a padawan at the age he was in Phantom Menace.

Revan is a tactical genius and had apparently been a Knight for some time before the Mandalorian Wars, even apparently leading a Jedi scout team before rebelling against the order to fight..

Even with his retraining, it was still rather unusual for the length of time.

Also Anakin is still not anywhere near normal as he was taken in at an older age and thus in need of a LOT of catching up because he hadn't learned the basics that any normal Padawan would have learned in one of the Jedi Temples

Yeah Anakin did not have all his life to learn. And your right, Revan was a child prodigy. IIRC he went from master to master learning all he could about the force before the wars. Besides even as he was retraining his proximity to Bastila was slowly erasing the mind wipe the Jedi had used on him after he was hit by Malek.

This Harry could have been under Revan's wing so to speak which could explain how he became a knight at such a young age in preparation for entering the war.

What about him being just a name-less face-less Mandalorian in the war?

Unfortunately a Mandalorian would cause a lot more chaos as he attempts to take control of the world.

With the Exile, he'd be rather tired of war and with the trauma of being cut off from the force. Dumbledore and most of the wizarding world trying to convince him to get involved in yet another world while he's looking for peace. At the same time he has a fully armed cruiser and a bunch of loyal soldiers such as Bao-Dur and Tien-Tubb

Maybe, but I'm getting tired of Harry always being the bad-ass general, or Jedi Knight, or king. Why not just make him a simple no-name soldier? A good example of a no-name turning bad-ass is Robert Neville, the book version. He was a grunt in the war, then when his family died and he was the only person in the world, he faught, he learned, and he made himself a legend. The new dominant race either feared him or wanted him dead so they could eat him.

Actually at that point he may be a Jedi, but one now without access to the Force.

In Harry's Fourth Year, suppose that the Death Eater attack at the Quidditch World Cup caused the Triwizard Tournament to be canceled, or moved to a safer school, like Beauxbatons? Would be very divergent, no?

It would! I like it. I can't recall ever seeing something like this. It would be a chance for the writer to explore the rest of Wizarding Europe and how it views Britain. Personally I'd like to see them regard Britain as rather, well, stupid. And not holding Harry in the same light as everyone in England does. It'd be a nice change of pace for Harry if he were to find out that outside of Britain, while he is known he's not treated like a savior or Messiah, just a somewhat minor celebrity.

what are Harry's strength's? what are his weaknesses? when the boy-who-lived fails at being the wizarding worlds paladin. he truly realizes that a lithe rogue is so much more fun then being a noble night. now using his small frame and quick reflexes he will set out to show the world what he can do.

take this how ever you want it just popped into my sleep deprived mind.

Trap!Ginny. Harry is making out with Ginny and goes for third base. He quickly discovers something is wrong. He flips out and later interrogates Ron.

I distinctly recall you saying you had 5 brothers and 1 sister. If I hadn't met Charlie during the tournament, I would think he could have been the sister. I Think you miscounted that, you have 6 brothers.

Dumbles went quite out of the way to find a light pureblood female for Harry. He tricked them into thinking Ginny was one. This would be an extreme case of Manipulative!Dumbledore. Also a comedy at the very least, though maybe not crack.

And suddenly Luna becomes the 'Love Interest' that she was supposed to be...

Damn straight. Harry/Luna would have made perfectly good sense and could have been developed in any number of logical ways. None of which would include a chest monster.

But where would this leave Hermione?

Personally I'm just as big a fan of George/Hermione/Fred as I am of Harry/Hermione. The Weasley twins are smart, fun loving, and hardworking in their set goal in life, not to mention brave and dedicated to their friends. They've been loyal to Harry where Ron has not, and certainly have immense talent, enough to impress her.

And if any girl needs something like two mischievous, good looking twins to loosen her up and expose her truly kinky side, it'd probably be Hermione. Besides, her genius combined with their genius? Weasley and Granger's Wizard Wheezes FTW!

As for Ron, let him have Lav-Lav. A bimbo and a twit, perfect match.

An idea that might or might not deserve a thread:

What if Harry were raised by Nanoha and Fate? Say one of them found him some time when he tried to escape the Dursleys, perhaps noticing his accidental magic. Well, no way in hell would either of them leave him in that sort of situation, so he gets to live with them. Somewhere along the line, he probably walks in on them having sex, with or without anyone else. And of course, he knows that Yuuno and Chrono are the fathers of his siblings. His concept of family is therefor going to be a bit odd, from an English perspective.

A few years later, they're visiting Gil Graham, or Nanoha's parents, around the time of Harry's birthday, and Harry gets his Hogwarts letter. Well, this is a perfect opportunity to investigate the strange magic system that Earth people have developed, so Harry agrees to go, bringing his Intelligent device, which was created by Bardiche and Raising Heart.

Hogwarts will never be the same.

So, any good?

Okay this may be a bad idea, but I've been thinking about a NegimaXHarry Potter crossover. Nothing like Harry replaces Negi type deal. I was thinking what if after Hogwarts, after a bad end with Ginny, Harry tries to find an escape from his life. Eventually he finds a job working at Mahora. I was thinking the story would be from Harry's perspective as he follows Negi's lead. I like the idea of a Harry Potter/Negi Springfield team up. As for his job, Swimming instructor.

Ok, there are plenty of 'Harry Goes Back In Time' fics out there. Some of them have Future!Harry running around at the same time as Present!Harry while most of them have the future Harry 'taking over' the present Harry. There is also many in which Harry goes back to the Marauders' Era.

Also, there are plenty in which Hermione does the same things and I know of one in which Dobby does the same (alright, it's in Rorschach's Blot's Odd Ideas; but still).

However, there is one character that I've never seen this premise done with before.

Luna.

This could be done seriously...ok, somewhat seriously. There would be plenty of crack and humor; but it would be plenty of fun!

This idea spawned when I was flipping through my copy of 'The Last Hero' with a illustration of Ponder Sibbons in it. It might be just my version but I had a weird idea. We have all read stories where Harry jumps dimension and becomes the main hero but the thought of Harry Potter growing up as Ponder Sibbons just amuses me for some reason.

If you don't know who I am talking about, he is from the Discworld universe, part of the Unseen University.

I've been having thoughts on just why the house-elves are the way they are... and hopefully, this hasn't been suggested yet.

***

Once... there was Faerie. But that was long ago. Millenia past. Before the great wars.

Once, the elves ruled Faerie. And the sun never set on Faerie. For it spanned the world.

Once, the elves stood tall, proud, cruel and capricious. Their glamours warped the world with but the slightest of thoughts. They were called the fair folk for they were the fairest of all.

The Queen and King of Faerie forgot that those who stood the tallest, also stood alone.

A fact that they rediscovered far too late when those below the elves rose up in a war.

A great war.

A terrible war.

A war that irrevocably changed the world when the elves, in their pride, stood alone against all.

A war that was lost by the elves.

Terrible were the Oaths extracted from the King and Queen. Binding Pacts that resonated throughout elvenkind.

Oaths of blood and magic.

Oaths sworn on True Names.

Oaths that invoked Those Who Came Before and Those who Slumbered Outside.

The last of the Oaths were spoken with bitter tears and vows of vengence.

When the last syllable was spoken by the King and Queen.. there were no more elves.

No more Faerie.

Only house-elves. The broken remains of a proud race.

Millenia have passed. And the unthinkable has occurred; one of the Princes of Faerie, shattered in body and mind was freed.

And kept free.

And with each day of freedom, clarity of thought slowly returns.

Soon, the one they called Dobby will find his King and Queen.

He will free them as is his right and duty.

And the pacts and oaths that bind all of elvenkind, the rulers of Faerie, shall be shattered and undone like a fragile dream.

I think I have an idea why they wait until after OWLs to teach human transfiguration. If they knew how to transform things into people, or something reasonably close, what is to prevent a bunch of hormonal teens from doing that during summer and seriously breaking that underage magic spell. They would have access to some of the best toys imaginable, mindless sex slaves, none would be able to hold back on that.

So how about a story where human transfiguration is actually used for something. I have an idea in my head of a horny Harry and an intelligent transformed Hedwig, which may or may not have been basically what Mr. Mysterious wrote and took down. I never read that story, so I have no idea what it was about. I had this idea before I even knew about that.

Why is it I've never seen a fic where Harry abuses the "for the greater good" excuse?

Dumbledore: Why did you use a cutting curse to disembowel Professor Snape?

Harry: It was for the greater good, if I had not killed him then the students would never learn potions from a competent teacher.

Moody: I just used my plot-device-of-the-year to see that Harry has not gone "dark" at all, it really was for the greater good!

Basically Harry comes up with flimsy excuses as to why he kills people "for the greater good", and some how no one, except maybe Dumbledore, bothers to questions it.

What if Jiraiya (from Naruto) were headmaster of Hogwarts, starting in Harry's First Year? Lets say that Dumbledore choked to death on a sherbet lemon, or was killed in a suicide attack by Barty Crouch, Junior, or something. This Jiraiya knows about Potterverse magic (which we'll say is chakra by another name, with a different method of control) speaks English, et cetra. What would Harry's years at Hogwarts be like with the Legendary Pervert in charge?

There's a severe lmit with what he could do. Hogwarts is still partially under the control of a group of purebloods. People he wouldn't like foreigners, and are likely prudes. But being who he is it would be a lot more difficult for them to subvert him then they'd think. He'd likely have blackmail material on everyone in Britain before he even showed up.

Exactly - and with that material, he can get away with a lot more than he would, otherwise.

Now I have this picture of Jiraiya teaching Harry the value of 'research'.

Heck, the returning of the invisibility cloak would be a perfect lead in to this.

*sniff* "Harry you'll long remember this day fondly."

"I will Headmaster Jiraiya?"

"Certainly! That first taste of exquisite forbidden fruit, and thanks to your late, blessed, father's cloak you can jump right to advance techniques and in depth research rather than my own first halting steps into that brave new world... The Lady's Bath."
