Harry
Potter
By: Nome
Harry Potter's shrouded background and unusual circumstances have been a puzzle to his fans ever since his first appearance. Theories have been examined and re-examined by us, virtually all of them giving Harry wonderful powers and heroic attributes, making him admired and awed. In the
Mórrígna trilogy, Harry's role is seemingly far less important or prestigious, but is still vital to the balance of the everyday world and fits his character better than heroics. Harry is a protector -- a guardian to something far greater and more important than himself because of love for that which he protects.
Harry is solid, always labouring to protect those he loves. He works hard in his quest against evil, enduring physical training as an
Auror and the mockery of these around him. Harry works hard for the greatest good, but sometimes finds the greatest good in the well-being of one person. He is always willing to take a stand, and is a superior fighter in physical and magical duels.

Being a protector has made Harry rather protective, naturally, and he can be protective to a fault. Since he cares for Ginny, he does many things he thinks are good for her or helpful, but often fails to consider her natural headstrong spirit, which dictates that she decides what happens to her, and drags himself into trouble.
Harry also has a streak for jealousy and grudges. He and Mike Fletcher have a standing animosity through the course of the Rebirth, continuing into the
sequels, because they each care for the same girl and disagree on what's best for her. Draco Malfoy, the Machiavellian
villain we all love to hate, becomes a point of conflict because he has a role Harry's protectiveness tries to stifle.
Harry is caring, loyal, kind, and determined, but occasionally too stubborn and secretive about the things he does in the name of right. He's open and unashamed about his feelings of love or friendship, but allows his temper to get ahead of him in
defence of those whom he has loyalties to. |
