Story Notes: This is my second Bingo Fic Fest challenge for Potions and Snitches.
- In this story, Harry is a tribrid...his parents an ice phoenix (mother) & a fire demon (father) with kitsune ancestry (fire/darkness) from his father's side and he inherits the kitsune ancestry due to it skipping 7 generations.
- Because he is a creature (phoenix being class xxxx, kitsune being xxxx, fire demon/any demon really being xxxxx), he is a class xxxxx creature, classified as a beast.
- Harry will have a regular fox form, a wolf-sized fox form, a phoenix form, and a demon form and is an immortal creature though can die and be resurrected like phoenixes due to his phoenix blood. He also has an hybrid form but is mostly confined to his fox or wolf-sized fox form.
- Harry will have powers (hence the superpower!Harry tag), but they will show gradually in time throughout the story.
- This story will contain worldbuilding, abuse of power and slavery.
- Some information from Kitsune and Demons might come from my lore for JOF but it isn't a crossover
- This story was originally going to be an answer to a deleted challenge, Ward of the Toad, but I could not figure out how to start it. I wanted Umbridge as a main part of it and somehow this came into being.
- I should mention, Voldemort has not come back & Harry is not a Horcrux

At this point, Kingsley is not part of the order so is under no obligation to tell Dumbledore anything of what he discovered. I wanted a way for Dumbledore to be oblivious to what is going on, so had Cornelius swear Shacklebolt and Thames to an unbreakable vow. This is also partly why I got rid of Mrs. Figg as well in the 1st chapter right away off screen.

He is being given a ice phoenix form. I will mention his mother is still alive in this story, but she has no idea where Elvoriuth is. Elvoriuth was snatched from his parents when he was born by the Marauders after they stupidly/accidentally caused Harry's death by the poor child freezing to death on Christmas when Lily who was overburdened by caring for Harry, went to her parents for a break.
The Death of the Real Harry Potter
During the first Christmas after Harry’s birth, Lily, exhausted from the demands of caring for a young child and craving time to visit her parents, decided to leave Harry with James and his closest friends—Remus Lupin, Sirius Black, and Peter Pettigrew. Known collectively as the Marauders, the group was trusted by Lily and James to look after their son.
-
A Fatal Oversight Despite their good intentions, the Marauders, distracted by their usual antics and perhaps underestimating the care required for a baby, failed to notice that Harry was not adequately protected against the bitter cold.
- The child was either left unattended outdoors for too long or placed in a room that was insufficiently heated.
- By the time they realized their mistake, Harry had succumbed to hypothermia.
- Peter uses his talent for wizarding gossip to discover that there's a child born close enough to Harry's birthday and the child of a slave that they might be able to survive, thus targeting Elvoriuth's parents.
Elvoriuth's Parents are Targeted:
- James’s Spellwork: James used a powerful binding charm to neutralize Serkaxuth’s fiery abilities.
- Sirius’s Subterfuge: Sirius distracted Eos, her icy magic creating jagged crystals that cut through the air, while Peter sabotaged her ability to take flight by luring her into a trap.
- Peter’s Deception: Peter, ever the tactician, used his knack for subterfuge to exploit a critical weakness. As Eos unleashed her icy magic in sweeping arcs, Peter transformed into his rat form, darting through the chaos unnoticed. He gnawed through the cords of an enchanted net nearby, triggering its fall and ensnaring Eos’s wings, grounding her. While her icy shards continued to slice the air, Peter shifted back, feigning an air of innocence as the others moved in for the final blow. It was an act of betrayal cloaked in cunning—a foreshadowing of darker treacheries to come.
- Remus’s Reluctance: Remus was the last to act, reluctantly casting the spell that rendered Eos immobile. Her haunting cries followed him for years.
Lot of spellwork to turn the fox born Elvoriuth cub into a human form and give him features of Harry, disgusing his fox features and good as new otherwise the next morning so it could be covered up. Some compulsion or memory charms on Lily to make her not question why her son might look a bit different or younger.
A Cell Designed for Kitsunorth-the name for what Elvoriuth is
Elvoriuth’s cell is a fortress designed to suppress and contain his formidable powers, ensuring that his hybrid nature—spanning phoenix, kitsune, and fire demon bloodlines—remains under strict control. The cell is housed deep within a Ministry facility, located in a specially constructed, isolated section far from the public eye.
Extreme Cold Environment
The most notable feature of the cell is its extreme cold. The temperature within is maintained at an unrelenting, sub-zero state, freezing everything from the walls to the air itself. This intense cold serves several purposes:
- Suppressing the Fire Demon Heritage: Elvoriuth’s fire demon form grants him immense heat and destructive power. The frigid temperature neutralizes his ability to conjure flames, making it nearly impossible for him to access his fiery powers. The cold slows the flow of his energy, preventing him from becoming an uncontrollable blaze.
- Controlling the Kitsune Influence: Kitsune are known for their ability to manipulate elements, including fire, as well as shape-shifting and creating illusions. The ice not only quashes any attempts to summon flames but also makes it harder for him to manipulate his surroundings with his kitsune abilities. Additionally, kitsune are vulnerable to cold in certain mythologies, making this an effective method for reducing his natural agility and trickster-like traits.
Specialized Materials and Enchantments
- Glacierstone Walls: The walls are made of enchanted glacierstone, a rare material that retains an icy aura even under magical suppression spells. This ensures a continuous cold environment regardless of external conditions.
- Frost Runes: A series of frost runes carved into the floor and ceiling continually channel cold energy to keep Elvoriuth in check.
- Magical Suppression Chains: Glistening silver chains woven with ice phoenix feathers and bloodroot vines are used to hold Elvoriuth. These chains constantly siphon off any residual magical energy he might try to access. They are specifically attuned to his unique magical signature, preventing him from fully accessing any form of magic, including his kitsune and fire demon abilities.
Fire Allowance Under Strict Control
As part of maintaining basic functionality for fire demons, Elvoriuth and others of his race are occasionally provided with a small pile of wood and kindling to create a controlled fire. This fire can only be lit under strict Ministry supervision and is extinguished before the individual is removed from their cell for any reason. This measure is designed to prevent their inner fire from extinguishing entirely, which could result in catastrophic instability.
Teleportation Suppression
- Anti-Teleportation Wards: The cell is surrounded by an intricate web of anti-teleportation wards that disrupt any form of spatial manipulation. These wards create a strong magical barrier that prevents Elvoriuth from teleporting or shifting between locations, regardless of which form he assumes. This includes suppressing any kitsune teleportation abilities or phoenix-related flight to other locations.
- Ley Line Anchors: These powerful magical conduits constantly draw energy from the earth’s natural ley lines, ensuring the suppression field remains active and unbreachable. The field extends far beyond the walls of the cell, preventing Elvoriuth from even attempting to escape by shifting dimensions or slipping into another realm.
Additional Containment Features
- Thermal Dampeners: Specially crafted dampeners are embedded into the walls to absorb and neutralize temperature fluctuations. These suppress any attempt by Elvoriuth to manipulate the environment with fire or ice, ensuring that neither his phoenix nor fire demon forms can set the cell ablaze or encase it in ice.
- Form-Specific Restraints:
- Kitsune Form: The cell is outfitted with magical chains made from moonstone and shadow iron. These materials are specifically chosen to limit kitsune shape-shifting abilities and dampen their illusionary powers. When Elvoriuth shifts into his kitsune form, these chains tighten, restricting his ability to shift back into his larger, hybrid, or demon forms.
- Phoenix Form: In his phoenix form, Elvoriuth’s regenerative abilities are limited by an Elder Rune Seal, a powerful enchantment designed to slow the healing process and prevent the phoenix’s natural rebirth cycle. This rune also dampens the heat and cold he can produce, rendering his fire manipulation virtually useless. Additionally, phoenix fireproofing around the cell helps contain any potential flames that might erupt.
- Demon Form: For Elvoriuth’s demonic nature, the walls and chains are infused with binding sigils created by skilled Ministry wizards. These sigils prevent Elvoriuth from accessing his shadow magic or using his demonic aura to cause panic or fear. The enchanted blackened steel embedded into the chains is a deterrent against his ability to manipulate darkness or strike at the walls with any force.
Security and Surveillance
- Auror Monitoring: The cell is constantly monitored by a team of Aurors and Magical Creatures Experts who specialize in dealing with dangerous beings like Elvoriuth. These individuals are equipped with Magical Sight Amulets that allow them to detect any unusual fluctuations in Elvoriuth's magical aura.
- Gravitational Lock: The cell is equipped with a gravitational lock that further prevents Elvoriuth from using his agility or flight (as he could theoretically leap or fly within a confined space). The cell itself is slightly tilted at an angle to destabilize any attempts at fast movements.
Magical Suppression:
- At the core of Elvoriuth’s cell is a magical suppression core—an artifact made from the combined essence of a Dementor’s Kiss, a Basilisk’s venom, and a shard of a Veela’s soul stone. This core is activated to suppress not just Elvoriuth’s powers but also his will. It produces a faint aura that saps his strength and makes him more docile, though this process is carefully balanced to avoid provoking violent reactions.
- The cell also features a series of interwoven incantations known only to the Ministry, which work in tandem to prevent Elvoriuth from accessing his powers at will. These incantations are updated periodically by the Department of Magical Law Enforcement to ensure that they remain effective against any new magical abilities Elvoriuth might develop or manifest.
Psychological Containment
- Dreamweaving Ward: An enchanted ward is placed in the cell to prevent Elvoriuth from slipping into his subconscious or dreaming of escape. This ward acts as a barrier, blocking any psychic or mental intrusion that could allow him to manipulate his surroundings or formulate escape plans.
- Environmental Isolation: The cell has no natural light, mimicking a twilight environment to prevent Elvoriuth from using his emotional connection to fire and ice. The darkness serves as both a psychological control mechanism and a practical means of stopping his phoenix form from regenerating or his demon form from summoning darkness at will.
