The Boy Who Chose Himself: The Gringotts File

Summary:

An in-universe Gringotts case file for Hadrian Potter — not a story, just the paperwork.

It collects all the boring stuff I need to keep straight so the main fic doesn't contradict itself: his three lordships and who stole his votes, full vault inventories, the 1267 feudal oath that makes Voldemort his liege lord, Drake biology notes, the medical file, Horcrux recovery logs, and an itemized list of every knut Dumbledore and the Ministry stole.

Optional reading. You can skip it and still follow Hadrian being feral. It's here mostly so I stop forgetting which goblin is which.

Chapter Text

CLIENT FILE: POTTER, HADRIAN J. P. — Lord Peverell, Heir Potter, Heir Slytherin. Status: ACTIVE. Risk Level: CATASTROPHIC. Gold Level: OFFENSIVE.

This is not a story. This is a record.

Compiled by order of Director Ironclaw following the events of 31 July 1990, this file contains the boring things wizards ignore until they become expensive: complete vault inventories, bloodline confirmations, Wizengamot seat holdings and stolen proxies, medical assessments, creature inheritance parameters for Drake-class, Horcrux recovery logs, and an itemized list of every knut misappropriated from the Potter Trust (with interest).

You — the casual reader — do not need to read this to understand the boy's actions. He will continue being sarcastic and difficult in the main file regardless.

We compiled it because wizards cannot keep their own paperwork straight, and because our client is ten years old, newly resurrected, and already attempting to purchase Scotland out of spite. Consistency is required.

Expect updates as further crimes are discovered. They will be.
