The potter family fortune starts at the first potter. Linfred Potter invented Skele-gro and Pepperup Potion as well as several others, each potter continued to ammase the family fortune until Fleamont Potter who essentially quadrupled it, by creating magical Sleekeazy’s Hair Potion, he eventually sold the company which increased the fortune even more. His son James did not work, but James' son Harry James Potter became an auror. The amount of money in Harry's trust vault (yes it is a trust vault) is a minimum of 50,625 galleons. In american terms he has at least $1,265,625.

This is a good story so far. I'm adding it to my watch list in case you decide to continue.

I'd like to point out that the House of black obviously had some money, since Sirius was able to afford a Firebolt, so perhaps they were well off as well and we didn't see it because Sirius was unable to access certain homes due to his fugitive status and Dumbledore wouldn't tell Harry if he owned more homes after the will reading.

"Planned" instead of "planed"

sweet

if you ever do come back to this one... why would magic drain be a problem when the dwarves can apparently convert energy back and forth as referenced in an earlier chapter about the plains or whatever... if you can convert energy to magic and magic to energy then just figure out how to setup some mana-generators and pump raw magic into the air.

I think the rituals are alright, just... They are very time consuming, I find. That, and they usually require ridiculous and/or "priceless" items that Harry just happens to have a lot of (Eg : bassilisk cornia, and chicken feathers). I'm not saying you might be like that, its just in my opinion ffs use them too much.

However, for future reference, Bloodmagic as a type of ritual augmenting oneself does seem pretty cool, and does not go without risks. (Eg if your hand slips while carving a rune in your body, you die a painful death) though the upside is that they are permanent or triggered effects.

Just an insight as to what I like to see in a ff story.

Okay, clearly the timeline is confused, because if Harry only got to examine the Philosopher's Stone at the end of the year, how on earth could the dwarves have been manufacturing weapons where part of it was *based* on the makeup of the Philospher's Stone beforehand?

Um, just a question. Even with the bastardized Latin that JKR uses for the spells, shouldn't it be "rumpus ossus parties"?

interesting story, to bad it died

One thought on the Blacks came to mind... Yes, #12 Grimmaud was a dump, but Sirius was able to buy Harry a top-of-the-line broom during 3rd year and pass the gesture off as years of missed birthday presents.

Interesting..too bad he didn't realize the ghost. Unless the ghost is on his side...

please keep on writing this fanfic...it is just too good to not be incomplete and also...even though hermione betrayed him... it was, at first for good reasons. i think that harry should give her a chance and at the same time, make sure that she does not fall in love with ron because think of it...why did he fall in love with her when he always despised her. maybe in this fanfic ron only decided to marry her because she was too close to harry and it was ruining dumbledore's plans so he manipulated her to betray him. still a great fanfic though

I loved this story. Please continue. I have no idea how you thought up something so different but I think it merrits completion. I do hope you post more chapters and that you haven't forgot this story.

I really like the power trade off versus mental capacity in this story. Harry's stance on Dumbledore and Voldemort are both well thought out and I don't think I've ever seen a Dumbledore!Bash like this before. I really like it.
