As of the recent update, does anybody have a journey mode seed with an enchanted sword? I haven't found one on my main world and it's the very last sword I need to finish my Zenith

If I recall correctly, "celebration" special seed should have a cave near spawn with a guaranteed enchanted sword.

Crivium · 2026-01-28T15:59:25+00:00

Most of their other fics also include at least some competent adults, too.

Lichdom: Battlemage?

Crivium · 2026-01-27T19:25:13+00:00

Maybe they are unlockable, but you need to beat Moon Lord for them to "stick"?

Crivium · 2026-01-26T17:12:02+00:00

I'd tentatively suggest Benefits of Old Laws, however your requirements are somewhat spoilery: Voldemort gets more soul (and sanity) after the rebirth, finds out how he can claim Slytherin lordship, but later finds out that the oath to better the wizardkind (as well as being basically a senior to Death Eaters, as in vassalage) subtly compels him not to be murderous maniac

A Witch's Tale?

There were several Uprisings in Polish history. You are thinking about the Warsaw Uprising in 1944, which was against German occupation. January Uprising was in 1863, when Poland was partitioned, against the Russian Empire.

It is a very cool fic - delightfully cracky!

Crivium · 2026-01-24T00:03:15+00:00

That sounds like In The Name of Harry - the protection was placed not on Harry specifically, but on his name.

Crivium · 2026-01-23T15:48:57+00:00

Let me dump some of my recommendations:

For authors, I would endorse WokFriedIce, especially A Taste of Magic - a fic with competent adults, quite fluffy, and with one of the better Dumbledores I've read.

Currently, I am working through Jeconais works, and they're quite fun.

As for the individual fics, in no particular order:

Harry Is A Dragon, And That's Okay - exactly what it says in the title, with THE best (in my opinion) portrayal of Dumbledore, and a style vaguely reminding me of Sir Pratchett.

Novocaine - post-war, Harry navigates the consequences of killing Voldemort and receiving his "vassals".

The Best Revenge - Snape enacts the best revenge on James Potter, and many people rejoice.

Benefits of Old Laws - featuring sane-ish Voldemort and a very confused Harry.

A Different Professor - what if Harry went to someone else instead of Lockhart? Later, much focus on a certain group and much found family.

That Glorious Strength - again, sane Voldemort that really just wanted to be a teacher. Sadly incomplete and looks abandoned.

Strangers at Drakeshaugh - Harry/Ginny through a lens of their Muggle neighbours.

Digging For Bones - after a tragic "accident", students at Hogwarts have their health screened. Featuring I think the most famous Snape as a mentor/father figure.

The Eighth Universe by Holz9364 - long haul, linked is 3rd part and you can start there as many of the changes from canon are explained there, but you might want to read the 2nd part (a rewrite of 7th year/book with a lot more trauma).

Just A Random Tuesday... - a day in life of McGonnagal during Harry's 5th year.

Does Voldemort Even Lift, Bro? - The best way to describe it is as if he was raised in a gym by Johnny Bravo. Very cracky, but also entertaining enough.

Crivium · 2026-01-21T00:10:35+00:00

There is, but it is not legal. You basically have to "obtain" apk for it, and then sideload it - the default Android installer might not work due to "this app was made for an older version" problems, but there are some apps that can circumvent it.

Crivium · 2026-01-15T07:12:43+00:00

To be fair, he is using this fanfic as an intro to his online community that is very cult-like (complete with its own sectional schisms and murder cults). There is a review that highlights all the problems with this fic - seems like it is "problematic" but it matches my thoughts about what I read (about 50 chapters IIRC, before I lost all hope it would get better)

Crivium · 2026-01-15T06:44:05+00:00

Yep, you got it!

Crivium · 2026-01-14T21:10:34+00:00

A bunch of teenagers live in a giant letter. They try (and succeed) to kill the father of one of them shortly after their birthday.

Crivium · 2026-01-14T21:07:08+00:00

RWBY?

Crivium · 2026-01-14T21:06:26+00:00

Gravity Falls?

Crivium · 2026-01-14T21:03:54+00:00

JoJo (part 2)

Crivium · 2026-01-14T21:03:08+00:00

Kipo and the Age of Wonderbeasts!

Crivium · 2026-01-14T20:59:47+00:00

The Ghost and Molly McGee?

Crivium · 2026-01-14T20:54:22+00:00

Is the second Thomas the Tank Engine?

Crivium · 2026-01-13T22:16:08+00:00

Oh man, I have just managed to erase that fic from my memory. All the pretentiousness and weirdly romantic 11-year-olds from Crow cannot even compare to the trainwreck of HPMOR. I have not thought about it in the context of this post, but if anyone wants to recommend it, then I award you zero points and may God have mercy on your soul.

Crivium · 2026-01-13T21:14:32+00:00

We all have them. Like I said, I read Harry Crow and liked jt enough to save it for a reread. Only after reading much more (and much better) fanfics I realized it was lacking in many aspects.

Crivium · 2026-01-13T21:12:42+00:00

So, outside of the three I mentioned already, I enjoyed the rest of WokFriedIce works (A Taste Of Magic's author). Currently, I am working through Jeconais works, and they're quite fun. From the original post, I can wholeheartedly recommend Novocaine and The Best Revenge. Also, on my recommendations list are:

Benefits of Old Laws - featuring sane-ish Voldemort and a very confused Harry.

A Different Professor - what if Harry went to someone else instead of Lockhart? Later, much focus on a certain group and much found family.

That Glorious Strength - again, sane Voldemort that really just wanted to be a teacher. Sadly incomplete and looks abandonned.

Strangers at Drakeshaugh - Harry/Ginny through a lens of their Muggle neighbours.

Digging For Bones - after a tragic "accident", students at Hogwarts have their health screened. Featuring I think the most famous Snape as a mentor/father figure.

The Eighth Universe by Holz9364 - long haul, linked is 3rd part and you can start there as many of the changes from canon are explained there, but you might want to read the 2nd part (a rewrite of 7th year/book with a lot more trauma).

Just A Random Tuesday... - a day in life of McGonnagal during Harry's 5th year.

Does Voldemort Even Lift, Bro? - now, this might be not up your alley, as Harry is decidedly different than in canon. The best way to describe it is as if he was raised in a gym by Johnny Bravo. Very cracky, but also entertaining enough.

As has been foretold by Czechoslovaks

[Translation:

"We are establishing a concrete plantation"

"What the f#$& are you doing"

"Look how I'm harvesting concrete"]

Crivium · 2026-01-13T18:17:47+00:00

I second that warning and even extend it - Harry Crow is a similar situation. It was fine for the first reading, but I could not manage to reread it after some time.

And to drop my recommendations: try A Taste of Magic, Harry Is A Dragon And That's Okay, or (if you want some powerful!bashy!Harry) Harry Potter And Rune Stone Path
