History FanFic / TheElizaTrilogy

* AdultFear:
** Snape suffers this when Deloris picks up Diawna as a baby and presses a knife to her throat, saying that if Snape ever betrays her, she'll make sure one of the twins die before they turn sixteen.
** As of book two, [[spoiler: he outlived both of his children. That Eliza comes back to life is entirely beside the point because he ends up in HeroicBSOD when Fudge orders a Dementor to Kiss Diawna]].

Before [[FanFic/MyImmortal Ebony]] and Rose Potter were even mere [[PlotBunny plot bunnies]], ''Franchise/HarryPotter'' fans often cited another name when asked to give an example of a MarySue. That name is Eliza Diawna Snape.

The ''Eliza'' Trilogy, written in 2000, is considered a classic ''Franchise/HarryPotter'' {{fanfic}} often mentioned in the same breath as ''FanFic/TheDracoTrilogy'' and ''FanFic/PawnToQueen''. While it was very popular and much praised in its heyday (it was often praised for having writing that was as good as and even ''better'' than Rowling's), it is considered nowadays to be a textbook example of a MarySue.

* VillainForgotToLevelGrind: When Harry figures out that [[spoiler:Diawn was impersonating

* MasterActor: Most of the time, ''someone'' can tell when Diawna is trying to impersonate Eliza. [[spoiler:In book 2, it takes a ''very'' long time for Draco to realize that something was wrong with the resurrected Eliza; Diawna reveals that she stole her sister's diary from Snape]].

* DisproptionateRetribution: Mentioned by Harry and Hermione of all people when they learn [[spoiler:Draco asked Fudge to punish Diawna with the Dementor's Kiss. It's a FateWorseThanDeath, and Draco admits he did it because Diawna tricked them by giving them hope Eliza was alive, not because of the kidnapping, the attempted murder, and taking a good portion of the school hostage. Harry said it was cruel and no one deserved that, but is oddly not traumatized when Wyrren shows them Eliza's body]].

* StrangeMindsThinkAlike: Hermione and Eliza have the same approach to Deloris's prophecy about the twins. [[spoiler:]]

* SelfFulfillingProphecy: Eliza decides to take charge of the prophecy that will lead to either her or Diawna dying, a "soul perishing in agony," and "living happily ever after". She, like Hermione, figured out that it would be ExactWords because death doesn't kill the soul. [[spoiler:So she obtained a shade necklace that would preserve her soul after death, while Diawna assumed she would be the twin to live happily ever after. The way things turn out, Diawna receives the Dementor's kiss, which leaves her body an EmptyShell for the shade Eliza to take over]].

* OldShame -- EDS has since closed down her Website/FanFictionDotNet account and has apparently withdrawn from the fandom altogether. Because of this and the series' age, it is hard to find complete copies of the trilogy online. The quote above is from the note she left on her old profile page.
