Don't worry. You'll be fine. Basically, if you want to know the plot, take Star Wars and replace a few characters:

Orphaned boy with latent supernatural powers is hidden from Dark Lord and raised by aunt and uncle sans powers until such a time comes that an old man with a very large interest in the boy (that also has supernatural powers) shows up to introduce him to a magical world beyond his imagination and reveals that said orphan is the only one that can take out said Dark Lord.

"Harry," Voldemort will probably say as Fea rolls her eyes with a grin. "I am your father."

"No!" Harry will scream melodramatically.

And how does Draco fit into the Star Wars model...?

The question of questions-am I Han Solo or the bounty hunter chappie?

Time to get reading then Diamond! Think of it as extending your education in a fun yet helpful way

And Fea, what an ending!

Boba Fett. Not a true baddie at heart; guilt by association.

The thing that worries me is who Snape, Beatrix, and Fenrir are.

Maybe Skittles should just avoid them....

Snape is Malfoidacil's favourite teacher, Bellatrix is his aunt, and Fenrir is a werewolf.

This list is a compilation of Harry Potter characters and places, not exhaustive since it doesn't include Fenrir, but is pretty good nevertheless and is annotated. This list is a bit clearer to read and also doesn't include Fenrir, but has brief descriptions.

A brief description of the canonical Fenrir Greyback: he's a vicious brute that has made it his mission to convert as many as possible into werewolvery, especially children. Draco Malfoy is acquainted with him and has dropped his name with an enthusiasm like to that of releasing a rabid ferret from your grasp but is also afraid of him.

A quick description of the Fenrir that was introduced to Mordor in ATM1: Fea transported him there through a fire to help take care of a werewolf problem (she has odd logic, she'll admit) and he stuck around. He is now very closely watched by Alli (Seer) and Aimè (Hunter), but he is still a free citizen. Feel free to use him.
