Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })The Lone Traveler is a series of stories, initially by The Professional, but later taken over and massively expanded by dunuelos. Take the Harry Potter from the prologue of Harry Potter and the Nightmares of Futures Past. He performs the same ritual, except something goes wrong; instead of being sent back in time, he becomes detached from any one reality, kind of a cross between Quantum Leap and Sliders. He drifts around the multiverse, encounters pretty much every fanfic trope on the list, and helps where he can and how he can, sometimes with something big, like directly destroying all of Voldemort's horcruxes, sometimes with something small, like a few words of advice to nudge a character away from the path of evil. He doesn't know what he needs to do in a given universe. Once he has accomplished his intended task he (involuntarily) moves on amidst phoenix song and a prolonged flash of blue light. Sometimes the main reason he is in a universe is to acquire an item or piece of knowledge that he needs in his next destination.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_2'); })Initially Harry Travels into various iterations of the Harry Potter fanfiction multiverse, but he eventually spreads out to include Babylon 5, the Buffyverse, The West Wing, Star Trek (in TOS, TNG, DS9,Voyager, and Enterprise flavors), Star Wars, The Belgariad, The Elenium, The Destroyer, Lord of the Rings, Stargate SG-1, Battlestar Galactica (both versions), JAG/NCIS, Naruto, NYPD Blue, Real Life, Wonder Woman, Joan of Arcadia, Celtic Mythology, Doctor Who, The Number of the Beast, The Stainless Steel Rat, Blue Bloods, Hard to Kill, The Riftwar Cycle, Due South, and even Hogan's Heroes.

comment
Family of Choice: The canon examples show up, of course. Obviously for the Potterverse, but also for the Buffyverse and SG-1. After his promotion to Godhood, Harry regards Flute/Aphrael as his sister, a designation she embraces wholeheartedly. Subverted by way of Long-Lost Relative in Initiative. Faith is welcomed into the Bartlett's family with open arms. A few chapters later, someone does some genealogical research and finds that Faith's maternal grandfather was Abby Bartlett's estranged uncle.

Muggles Do It Better: Zig-zagged. Which way it goes depends on the universe. Played Straight: In Building A Better Burrow acidic pipe cleaners from a plumbing supply store makes a phenomenal etching compound for adding runes to stones. Inverted:In the various Babylon 5 stories, nobody has anything even close to Harry's translation spell. In Professor of Defense muggle methods are used to make the best potions lab in Britain for Hogwarts, but many of the things about it (e.g. fume hoods, lab coats) are magical replication of—or improvements on—muggle technology.

Changed My Jumper: Averted, usually. The Traveler's simple, but iconic, jeans/t-shirt/black leather jacket combination doesn't always fit in, and he knows it. Luckily, he can just transfigure them into something more appropriate. Played Straight in the various Star Trek universes. The characters might note he's wearing a costume several centuries out of date, but that's all the notice that will be paid to his clothing.

Batman Gambit
 The Lone Traveler / Fan Fic / int_38d02d44
comment
Batman Gambit: In his Travels, Harry has encountered many versions of people from his own world and learned how they will react. This means he knows he can do things like leave a list of the horcrux locations and Dumbledore won't stop to think it could be a trap. In a few universes, the Traveler's job is to move a Slytherin, or the entire house, away from their Obviously Evil canon portrayal and into a more sensible outlook where Batman Gambit and Xanatos Gambit become their hat.

Blatant Lies: Pretty much the only way to get pureblood bigots to accept Muggle tech. Tell them that whatever it is they're so uptight about is completely magical and so much better than anything the Muggles could come up with, they'd bow down to the awesome wizards just for a chance just to look at it. Even if the items in question are stainless steel lab benches or lab coats.

Long-Lost Relative
 The Lone Traveler / Fan Fic / int_455f6a91
comment
Long-Lost Relative: It's a voyage through fanfic-land. This occurs frequently, sometimes crossed with Famous Ancestor. If it's a Harry Potter universe, expect the relation to be through a Squib. Susan Ivanova is usually a descendant of Minerva McGonagall (or the local universe's equivalent). In one universe, Vernon Dursley turns out to be the nephew of Dolores Umbridge. In Initiative, Faith turns out to be the granddaughter of Abby Bartlett's estranged uncle. In Greatest Minister in History, a random muggleborn ministry worker turns out to be descended from a member of the Fudge family, thus making her a cousin to the Minister (who immediately insists that she call him "Uncle Cornelius"). In Professor of Defense, this happens several times. Severus Snape and the Evans sisters turn out to be cousins. Lily and Petunia's maternal great-grandfather turns out to have been a squib named Salford Dumbledore, making the headmaster their first cousin, thrice removed.

Happily Adopted: Happens a few times to various versions of Harry. Harry by the Gibbses in 'Here Comes The Marine'. Played with in that Gibbs is already Harry's sort-of father (A Wizard Did It). A version of Tom Riddle living in the Vale of Aldur adopts the children of the woman he marries. Harry by Sirius a few times. Harry by the Dursleys a few times, too. Harry by Petunia alone in the HPAU arc (4th story, chapters 37-40). Harry and Hermione by alternate versions of their parents. The Traveler took them to another universe, you see.

Early-Installment Weirdness
 The Lone Traveler / Fan Fic / int_4f4372e9
comment
Early Installment Weirdness: There are several differences between the Professional's version of the Traveller and dunuelos' Traveler. Firstly, there's the British spelling of 'Traveller'. Harry's aliases are very generic and meaningless in the first story. This later changes. The Professional's Harry hews much closer to the Harry from Nightmares of Futures Past, while dunuelos' tends to have a more Deathly Hallows-compliant backstory, up until the point where he lost everything. One of the most noticeable effects of this is that Ginny, while she remains Harry's Lost Lenore, goes from being his girlfriend who died at the age of 16, to his fiancée who died at an indeterminate later age, to his wife who died at some point either before or after the birth of their children. In the first story the Traveler had a watch that synchronized itself to the local time and date (but not year). This watch disappears when dunuelos takes over, something he noted in his author's notes. In the last few chapters of the first story, Harry runs into a mysterious cloaked figure several times who disappears with much the same light show as he does. This mysterious cloaked figure hasn't reappeared since dunuelos took over.

Broad Strokes: The specific backstory for the Traveler varies between authors, or even from chapter to chapter, in later stories. It doesn't cause too many in-story effects, though. One of the most noticeable effects is whether Charlus and Dorea Potter were James' parents or if it was Fleamont and Euphemia.

Devil, but No God: Zig-zagged. Harry confirmed the existence of God when Joan introduced them in Stories of the Lone Traveler, so it was apparently inverted, but towards the end of Further Adventures of the Lone Traveler he encounters Lucifer. Whether he's a multiversal counterpart to God or just the local universe's equivalent isn't clear. The idea of an evil Traveler is explored in the recursive fanfic 'Lone Traveler: Nemesis' by The Sinister Man

 The Lone Traveler / Fan Fic / int_69d46274
comment
Justice by Other Legal Means: In one arc Vernon is abusive to Petunia as well as Harry, but the local constables are all too friendly with him for Petunia to do anything. What does she do to escape? At the Traveler's suggestion she reports him for embezzling the funds that were supposed to go towards caring for Harry. Inland Revenue is rather less lenient than Vernon's friends in the local constabulary.

Armor-Piercing Question
 The Lone Traveler / Fan Fic / int_7b6e47a5
comment
Armor-Piercing Question: Several times. In one universe he hits Amelia Bones, director of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement, with a whole barrage of them. Talking to Colonel Klink about the recently departed SS Major Hochstetter. In Slytherin Chronicles, Snape uses Lucius Malfoy's interest in breeding Abraxans to point out how inbreeding to keep bloodlines pure is destroying the very magical culture he wants to preserve. Ron Weasley's loud antipathy towards Slytherins is entrenched canon. The Traveler (or someone operating on his advice) can shut down Ron's brain and mouth by asking him if he really hates his Gran that much, then—when confusion stalls the rant—pointing out that Arthur Weasley's mother was born Cedrella Black, and was, therefore, not only a Slytherin, but from one of the most Slytherin families in Britain. In Here Comes the Marine Barty Crouch Sr. gets hit with one from Dumbledore and Arcturus Black in front of the entire Wizengamot: "Why is Sirius Black in Azkaban?"

In a few universes, the Traveler's job is to move a Slytherin, or the entire house, away from their Obviously Evil canon portrayal and into a more sensible outlook where Batman Gambit and Xanatos Gambit become their hat.

Ron the Death Eater: The Trope Namer himself, as well as numerous others. Played with in numerous ways. Initially the Traveler winds up in universes where the various people's personalities hew quite closely to those of the people he knew. Then comes the A Different Universe arc/side story. For the first time he encounters a universe where Ron—as well as Ginny, Molly, Arthur, and Dumbledore—are evil and he is thrown for a hell of a loop.

Spell My Name with an "S": The precise spelling of the first part of the Traveler's Goblin-given name seems to fluctuate. It starts out as 'Maarek', though it sometimes appears as 'Marak', and is currently most consistently rendered as 'Marek'. This variation has been commented upon by the Traveler.

Historical Person Punchline

Historical Person Punchline: In-universe, many times. In one chapter the Traveler is in London in the Middle Ages or Renaissance and meets a healer. It isn't until he's helped this healer found a hospital that Harry learns the man's first name is Mungo. In the Potterverse St. Mungo's is the premiere magical hospital in Britain. Harry drags a girl out of a burning house she had gone into because she thought her brother was in there. Said little brother was so impressed with both the Traveler's actions and rationale behind them that he decides to dedicate his life to public service. The boy? Josh Lyman. In a crossover with Real Life, Harry offers suggestions to a WWII RAF engineer on how to better protect the planes being sent off to fight the Luftwaffe or bomb Germany.

Rape Is a Special Kind of Evil
 The Lone Traveler / Fan Fic / int_8a817c2a
comment
Rape Is a Special Kind of Evil: The Traveler comes across a universe where his local counterpart is using his power to force himself on women and girls. The Traveler puts him down. When he's in the position of Professor of Defense, the Traveler notes some problems with the Hogwarts wards, specifically the ones intended to prevent rape. Dumbledore's reaction when he finds this out is best described as 'apocalyptic fury', especially when he finds out that it was one of his predecessors—Phineas Nigellus Black—who had disabled the ward. In one of his trips to the land of The Elenium, Harry is granted a Barony. He institutes some principles of the common law there. Revolutionary ideas like everyone—even bandits—having a right to legal counsel and a day in court and that the law applies to everyone. That comes as a nasty shock to some of the lesser nobles when a nobleman's son gets punished severely for not taking 'no' for an answer from a serf's daughter.

In Professor of Defense, there's a mutual instance. Peter Pettigrew's canon slide to the dark side is halted when he falls madly in love with a late-developing witch by the name of Petunia Evans. Petunia, because she is so in love with her boyfriend, never even considers Vernon Dursley's advances, and the horse-faced shrew of canon never develops.

Why Didn't I Think of That?: The Traveler gains a lot of experience with what can work well in certain segments of the multiverse. This lets him cheat a bit and offer elegantly simple solutions that he's either seen implemented in other universes, or just come up with along the way through trial and error. Specific mention should go to the time Harry convinced Colonel Klink to help Hogan win the war for the allies. How? Telling him the truth, which is something Hogan admits never even crossed his mind.

Potterverse: Muggleborns are actually descendants of Squibs, wizards' magic makes them lazy and illogical, the "Wrong Boy Who Lived", Harry being a metamorphmagus or an animagus, Molly and/or Ginny ensnaring Harry with love potions. Buffyverse: Calling out the Scoobies for how badly they treated Faith, Getting Buffy and the Scoobies recognition and/or support from the government, being the same universe as SG-1. Stargate Verse: Being the same universe as the Buffyverse, helping the Asgard avert extinction. Babylon 5: Saving Ivanova, jump-starting her relationship with Marcus, preventing the Earth-Minbari War, saving Londo.

Trust Password: The Lone Traveler is always welcome at the Leaky Cauldron. All he has to do is tell the bartender "I am a Lone Traveler in the night" to identify himself, if the bartender hasn't realized who he is just yet.

What Year Is This?
 The Lone Traveler / Fan Fic / int_cd3ebc8e
comment
What Year Is This?: Averted in the first story, where the Traveler has a watch that sets itself to the local time and date, but not year, but he still avoids directly asking people when he is. Zig-zagged afterwards; the watch disappears, but the Traveler doesn't usually go around asking the year. In the Potterverses, especially, he's usually able to figure it out from context.

I'm Mr. [Future Pop Culture Reference]
 The Lone Traveler / Fan Fic / int_d417c53d
comment
I'm Mr. [Future Pop Culture Reference]: Zig-zagged and crossed with Character Name Alias. The Traveler's frequent pseudonym of Gary Seven is straight out of Star Trek, so that means it is sometimes a future pop culture reference and, at other times, a current pop culture reference. However, he tends to use this name within the wizarding world, so nobody has seen Star Trek and doesn't call him on it. During The Lone Traveler in a Galaxy Far, Far Away, Harry realizes that 'Ben Kenobi' isn't exactly the best pseudonym for Obi-wan Kenobi, so he gives the old Jedi the new name Ben Kingsley.

I Have Many Names
 The Lone Traveler / Fan Fic / int_d5d976dd
comment
I Have Many Names: Apart from The Lone Traveler, Harry tends to use various pseudonyms because his own is somewhat recognizable, either because he's in a Harry Potter universe, or because he's in a universe where those are very popular books. Once you get through the names, there's all his titles... Harry Planter, Gary Seven, Garrick Septimus (Latinization of Gary Seven), Harry Traveler (usually only used in narration to avoid confusion with a local Harry Potter) Maarek Ilumian is a name granted to him by the goblins in his original universe. It means "Fury of the Light". This is also the name he takes when he is made God of Free Will

Love Redeems
 The Lone Traveler / Fan Fic / int_d842e380
comment
Love Redeems: A recurring theme. In one universe the presence of a patronus created with the memory of a goddess of lovenote Specifically Flute/Aphrael, from The Elenium is enough to pull Igor Karkaroff to the side of the light. In another universe, the Traveler stops Tom Riddle from getting all that far in his horcrux research and lets him live for decades in the Vale of Aldur, where he falls in love and marries a local woman. After she dies, he returns to Hogwarts no older than he left and at the same time he left. From then on, all he needs to do to stop any nascent evil impulses is to remember her. The ability to love or be loved is the deciding factor in the redemption offered to numerousnote Drusilla, Spike, Angel, and Anya, if you're wondering Buffyverse characters at the end of Further Adventures. It's how Dolores Umbridge is redeemed the one time the Traveller manages it. Even then, he had to start when she was still a toddler In Professor of Defense, there's a mutual instance. Peter Pettigrew's canon slide to the dark side is halted when he falls madly in love with a late-developing witch by the name of Petunia Evans. Petunia, because she is so in love with her boyfriend, never even considers Vernon Dursley's advances, and the horse-faced shrew of canon never develops. Colonel Klink isn't particularly evil, despite who he works for, but when the Traveler uses his knowledge of history to tell him the sheer amount of death and destruction the Nazi's are causing to his beloved homeland, Klink throws in with Hogan with barely a qualm.

Intimate Healing: Discussed by Kevin Girardi. During his visit to Arcadia, the Traveler used some spells on Kevin that, over time, allowed his damaged spine to heal. The first time anyone notices this is immediately after he and his fiancée... finish.

Famed In-Story
 The Lone Traveler / Fan Fic / int_db9940c4
comment
Famed In-Story: It's how Harry wound up with the name the Lone Traveler. Due to the fact that he moves through various times in various universes, he finds out out about this moniker long before he has personally done many of the deeds that result in it being applied to him. The post-Traveler parts of Initiave show that Faith Lehane has acquired this status. Merely being introduced to her by name is enough to make the British ambassador start gushing praise, both on his own behalf and his boss'. Fear of pissing her off is enough to make the supernatural community of DC promise to protect her family (i.e. President Bartlett and his family) in exchange for a truce. In West Wing canon Zoë Bartlett's kidnapping and its aftermath was a serious political minefield that caused lots of problems, while in this continuity the nation of Qumar rolls over and capitulates to everything the US demands when they realize they seriously pissed Faith off by not doing anything to curb the extremists who kidnapped her cousin.

Try to Fit THAT on a Business Card!: Numerous examples The Traveler himself, especially earlier on, will sometimes give his full list of titles and epithets when introducing himself. At the end of Further Adventures of the Lone Traveler, Sparhawk and Garion get drafted for a big fight. Sparhawk's introduction is...lengthy. Immediately lampshaded by Garion. Elizabeth II's full title shows up at least once in both Latin and English.

Anti-Climax: in one of his trips to Babylon 5, the Traveler is incensed to find that the sole reason he was there this time was to provide cooking advice.

Time Travel for Fun and Profit: The Traveler is quite willing to use his knowledge of what is or will be happening to make craploads of money. Usually that money is left for his local alternate, or to do some other good deed. Taken to its logical conclusion when Harry works with the Gringotts Goblins in one universe to create an inter-dimensional bank.
