* AdaptationalNiceGuy: The Dursleys towards Harry

* DidntThinkThisThrough: Tonks tries to show off her enchanted belt buckle, which improves her balance, by leaping onto an unstable table. After the table collapses and she falls down, Harry reminds her that the belt buckle only makes it harder for her to lose her balance; it doesn't turn her into an acrobat.
* DiesDifferentlyInAdaptation: Peter Pettigrew dies in Azkaban long before Harry even enters Hogwarts, rather than being strangled by his own magical arm as he did in canon.

** He does so intentionally during the First Task to get his hands on dragon parts with their full potency.

* DeathByAdaptation: [[spoiler:Umbridge dies trying to wield Dourfrost despite Harry's warning]].

* AchievementsInIgnorance: Having no preconceived notions of what is or isn't possible with magic, Harry not only learns wandless magic before even entering Hogwarts, but also creates a proper unit of measure for magic itself.

* BloodBrothers: For returning the Sword of Gryffindor to them, Harry is officially declared a sworn brother of the Erdunn dwarves, complete the Erdunn sigil appearing on his arm.
* BlueAndOrangeMorality: The dwarves are a downplayed example compared to goblins. While goblins consider any goblin made artifact to be merely on loan to the commissioner and demand its return when they die, dwarves only seek a commissioned items return if the commissioners entire line dies out.

** Hermione is one of Harry's study partners as opposed to one of his best friends. Ron has it even worse, only being mentioned once in the entire first year and not making an appearance until the summer before second year.

** As of Halloween during Harry's Third Year, Voldemort is on the path towards regaining his body despite Pettigrew being in Azkaban. In this case, it's because a branch member of the Flint family sought him out after being cast out by the main family.

* LoopholeAbuse: Normally, an Artifact cannot be left incomplete or it will fail[[note]]Harry is left physically and magically exhausted when he spends three solid days making a sword[[/note]]. After creating new tools out of basilisk bones, Harry imbues his hammer and anvil with an effect that lets him keep ongoing Artifacts in stasis for up to twelve hours at a time, allowing him to eat and rest while working on longer projects.

* PowerEqualsRarity: There are five grades assigned to True Artifacts[[note]]Minor, Median, Greater, High, and Legendary[[/note]] Due to how hard it is to make stronger Artifacts, anything from the top two grades are extremely rare. One veteran artificer outright states that most artificers' magnum opus is only a Greater Artifact.

* ItOnlyWorksOnce: Harry's Ward Breakers can tear through temporary wards and a group of them can destroy even ancient wards. But because they absorb all the backlash from breaking said wards, they burn out after a single use.

** One important aspect of artificing is that the Artificer has to either create every component from scratch (including smelting ore into ingots) or has to obtain the components through a Ritual of Conquest. Magical items that were purchased can only be used to create enchanted items, not Artifacts. Furthermore, while Harry can create Artifacts for other people but there's a limit to how powerful they can be as he isn't the master of the components and thus they won't respond as well to him.

* SkilledAndStrong: As of chapter 53, Tonks is the second strongest member of Harry's group and the fourth strongest person to ever be tested as well as a trained Auror with plenty of combat training under Mad-Eye Moody.
