Gringotts - Part3d - Harry
Magical Familiar:
White Owl - Hedwig
“Hewi’,” Harry cooed as he tears run down his cheeks.
“This is why it was better to do it when they slept,” Clint said, and he gave Luna to Remus, taking Harry from Phil he stood up and paced around the room telling him everything would be okay.
Crumple-Horned Snorkack - Unknown
“A what?” every asked at the same time, thought Harry was laughing so hard he almost fell out of Clint’s arms.
“I will admit, this is an unknown even to the Goblins,” Ragnok admitted, before requiring, “If you ever find it, please inform us immediately.
Niffler - Unknown
“They are little creature about the size of a kitten, look more like a mole, it will go after everything gold and shiny; keeps it in a pouch on its abdomen or in its nest,” Remus recited, to keep the other from asking, though he had to admit, Harry’s cooing was cute.
Transforming Rabbit - Unknown
Sirius and Remus started to laugh, even Severus and Ragnok had troubles keeping themselves in check, so the others asked what was so funny.
“You know those muggle, sorry No-Maj, magic shows? With the rabbit getting out of a hat?” Everyone nodded. “Well, a transforming rabbit is a rabbit turning into a top hat on its own. I read you can teach them to turn into different things, but usually, when they are sold at a young age they can only turn into a hat. They are also extremely fat, 'like Luna wouldn’t weight enough', fat.” Severus explained, trying to keep his serious expression.
Remus wondered if like him he imagined Harry putting magical shows for them when he would be older.
“That’s an interesting set of pets, I’ll need to make sure the tower is creature proof,” Tony said.
“Familiar aren’t pet, though since they are animals or creatures on this case I’ll give you that, but there are laws in the Wizarding World, laws I know are followed on this side of the pound because they were put forward by the ICW. It’s illegal to separate a wizard and its familiar. If a familiar is hurt, its wizard is legally allowed to hurt that person back, if the familiar is killed, the life of the person who hurt it is forfeited,” Remus explained.
“Wow, that’s…” Phil said but didn’t finish it.
“As we explained Familiars are connected to our magic, if yours is hurt than you feel it, but more than that, magic demands you protect it,” Severus told them.
“I am going to need to study all those laws you have, create new paperwork, cover stories…” And with that Phil was lost to them for a while.
“Is there another familiar?” Sirius asked but Ragnok shook his head. “I am not sure I am ready to know the rest yet, but I don’t think I would be even if we waited 10 years, so let's move on.”
“I can first explain, the familiar marked unknown, are either familiar's Lord Potter wasn’t aware of, or you never met before, those with names are the ones Lord Potter gave Gringotts information on or who were legally registered as we get a copy to allow them into the vaults, pets aren’t allowed, Familiars are,” Ragnok told them.
Magical Core:
Mage - Level 6 - Blocked 75%
“What??!!” Remus, Sirius, and Severus stood up abruptly, glaring at the parchment Ragnok was reading.
“That old fool is going to die painfully.”
“75%! 75%!”
“A mage!”
“Let them pace it out,” Natasha told Ragnok, “Explain this to us, please.”
“Very well, as you saw on yours and Sirius’ test, the magical core is scored on different levels, usually, squibs’ magical core rate under 10. Low wizards, meaning who have enough magic to attend basic magical training, rates between 11 and 20. Average wizards rate between 21 and 50. It is the minimum required to be accepted in a magical school. They often have special abilities, they will be gifted in one possibly two subjects, often connected, seers often are average wizards and witches, Sirius’ core was blocked to an average level but it didn’t keep him from becoming an animagus. Between 51 and 75, are the high average wizards, which will include Sirius after his core is unblocked. Gifted Wizards rate between 76 and 100. Before you ask, we never do this test on underage wizards as the core fluctuates during their school years, the core grows and a child being tested at 32 when he or she enters Hogwarts could test at 80 after their magical inheritance, the core needs to mature and go through every maturation for the test’s results to be accurate,” Ragnok explained.
“So, Harry will become more powerful,” Tony stated.
“As he grows yes.”
“You said Harry tested at level 6, that’s still a squib,” Natasha commented.
“First, you should know,” Ragnok told them, “over the last few days, Dumbledore tried to take control over young Harry, one of his attempts was signed with a blood quill.”
“Please, tell me you tested it,” Sirius said excited, everyone knew you don’t leave your blood to the goblins if they are not going to file the parchment, Dumbledore must be frustrated if he forgot that.
“Evidently,” Ragnok sneered at him, though his eyes were smiling. “Albus Dumbledore’s core was found to be at 95 and to have many leeches keeping him at his power level.”
“Oh this is so good, we just need to save everyone from his leeches,” Sirius gloated.
“As usual, you do not think, Black,” Severus sneered at him. “The power leeched must be infinitesimal for each leech or someone would have noticed, even without them Dumbledore is still politically powerful and still has more power than you.”
“Than me, maybe, but not more powerful than Harry,” Sirius told him, with a smirk.
“How do you figure that?” Natasha asked.
“Parents only block the children magical core before their 11th birthday when they can’t control the child’s magic. Lily and James loved Harry’s magic, and I was with them not two days before…” He couldn’t say it, not yet, it was too fresh, “they would have told me, and as one of Harry’s parents, my blood was needed too, so it didn’t come from them. We already know Dumbledore sent me away and made me give up Harry, he had him for hours, and now the pup is blocked, and severely at that, Dumbledore did it, he had no reason to do it if he didn’t feel threatened. I can’t believe he took the time to do a binding ritual, but Harry’s head was still bleeding when I got here,” Sirius said then suddenly stood and walked to Harry cuddling him close. “That Bastard, he needed the blood.”
“To answer your question Natasha,” Ragnok said in the silence that followed. “Wizards or Witches with cores rating above 100 are honored, and to differentiate their scale we call them called Mages, a level 6 is under Merlin or Morgan, but as said Harry will grow into his power.”
“You have his old future tests, what do they show?” Tony asked.
“More titles and money, given to him in the coming years because people are thankful for Vold..., Riddle’s departure,” Ragnok informed them, “Lord Potter gave us instructions for it, a scholarship will be opened in Lily Potter’s name, and a charity found in the name of James Potter, nothing is to be called Harry Potter,” Ragnok told them and slid parchments next to Sirius’ empty glass for him to read and sign later. “His core level was at Mage - 8, but it didn’t grow as it should since the block was still on him at the time, which happened to be on his 18th birthday.”
“Someone this powerful has to have anchors, a soulmate, a harem, creature mates, someone to keep them from destroying their environment when distressed,” Severus said, “Merlin anchored himself into Camelot, Morgan was a prestress she let her magic bleed in Stonehenge on Lyra yearly.”
“He had a community around him, but no, I didn’t find any documents or proof of bonding of any kind,” Ragnok told them. “I don’t know how he managed his power in the future, but as we plan to take the binding down, and his education will be different, we will need to find a way to anchor him. I was unaware his core would be at mage level already but as I suspected his level to be on the higher tier I had the curse breakers put focus stones and runes in the ritual room prepared for him, I’ll make sure they are loaned to you as well.”
“Thank you Ragnok,” Sirius said, now that he had calmed down, he went to sit back seeing the parchment waiting for him he handed Harry to Phil and started to read and sign. Phil smiled softly at him before tickling Harry.
“We should put them back in the playpen, this got to be boring for them,” Remus said, and joined the action to the words, putting Luna down with the toys, Phill followed his lead.
