Harry Potter: Extraordinary Talent

A slow start.

Living in a shop in Knockturn Alley, Austin steadily accumulates magic, all to unlock a new talent.

"In those circumstances, I couldn't have done the same, let alone acted so decisively." Snape admitted he was outmatched.

"What does he truly desire? Or does he simply care nothing for what others pursue?" Dumbledore could never see through him.

With a host of talents at his command, he moves between light and darkness, never once defeated. He remains in the shadows, understood by no one.

"There is nothing that cannot be traded, and no one who cannot be used. An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth."
