Lockhart of The Kaleidoscope

The Great Hall buzzed with the usual pre-dinner chatter as students settled into their respective House tables. Above, the enchanted ceiling mimicked the clear twilight sky, a serene backdrop to the bustling scene below.

Among the sea of robes, one figure stood out—not for their appearance, which was that of Gilderoy Lockhart, the flamboyant professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts, but for the extraordinary power they possessed, hidden beneath the facade of a once-famous wizard.

Inside Gilderoy Lockhart's mind, however, something remarkable was happening. Memories, not of this world, but of another existence, flooded his consciousness. He recalled a life before this one, where he had lived in a world where magic was nothing but a fantasy of childrens

In that previous life, he had saw many abilities in various movies, series, anime , etc. One ability, in particular, had taken root within him—an ability akin to Unlimited Blade Works, but instead of blades, it allowed him to manifest objects seen or imagined in that former existence. Whether they were the intricate suits of Iron Man, the legendary Excalibur, or even artifacts from various movies and tv series, if he had seen it or read about it, he could summon it forth.

This power was not without its limits. Objects capable of altering the fabric of reality on a global scale were beyond his reach. The cosmic power of an Infinity Gauntlet or the world-ending might of certain artifacts from the Nasuverse were strictly off-limits. Yet, within the confines of these constraints, he found himself surprisingly free. The magical laws of the wizarding world, so different from those he had once known, provided fertile ground for his abilities to flourish.

Here, in Hogwarts, where spells bent space, time, and even the fabric of reality itself, he felt strangely at home. Children learned to manipulate the very essence of existence through charms, transfigurations, and potions that could bend luck and alter destinies. It was a world where even the mundane seemed magical.

But there was more to his abilities than mere projection. Locked within his mind was another gift—a true magic known as Kaleidoscope. It granted him unparalleled access to information across multiverses, but with a caveat—he could gather knowledge beyond comprehension, but to wield it effectively required deciphering complex theories and performing countless calculations. It was as if he had been given the library of Alexandria without the ability to read.

For a year now, he had immersed himself in the study of Kaleidoscope, poring over ancient tomes, consulting with magical scholars who spoke of worlds beyond the veil of reality, and experimenting with spells that bridged dimensions. It was during one such experiment that he had stumbled upon a breakthrough—a spell allowed to travel worlds using the objects in his reality marble to pin point his destination in the vast multiverse

The spell was no mere incantation but a complex weave of magic, woven from the essence of his Reality Marble and the intrinsic connections between objects and their owners across dimensions. For instance, by using Captain America's vibranium shield as a catalyst, he could establish a link not just with the shield itself but with those who had wielded or interacted closely with it—Steve Rogers, Sam Wilson, or even the skilled artisans of Wakanda who had crafted the miraculous metal.

Tonight, as the students of Hogwarts dined on roast chicken and butterbeer, Gilderoy Lockhart's outward appearance masked the mind of a being whose very essence resonated with the echoes of other worlds. He pondered the implications of his abilities, the responsibilities they entailed, and the mysteries they promised to unravel.

Little did he know that his journey at Hogwarts was about to take a turn—a turn that would challenge not just his magical prowess but his understanding of existence itself. For in the depths of his mind, where memories of another life mingled with spells of ancient power, lay the key to unlocking a destiny that spanned worlds and defied imagination.

As he sat among the students, exchanging pleasantries and deflecting inquiries about his next adventure, Gilderoy Lockhart—no, the being within—felt a surge of anticipation. The stage was set, the pieces in motion. Hogwarts, with its towering turrets and hidden corridors, held secrets yet to be uncovered. And he, with his dual heritage of wizardry and otherworldly knowledge, was poised to unravel them all.

But for now, he would bide his time, observing, learning, and preparing for the challenges that lay ahead. For the path he had chosen was not just one of power and discovery but of duty and destiny—a path that would lead him to confront ancient evils, forge unlikely alliances, and ultimately, to discover the true extent of his abilities in a world where magic and imagination intertwined.

And so, beneath the facade of Gilderoy Lockhart, the being who had once lived another life prepared to embark on a new adventure—one that would redefine what it meant to be a wizard at Hogwarts.

Author's note:- 1.Kaleidoscope-The Kaleidoscope, also known as the Second Magic, is one of the Five True Magics in the Nasuverse. It is wielded by Kischur Zelretch Schweinorg, often referred to as "Zelretch the Wizard Marshall." The Kaleidoscope enables its user to manipulate parallel worlds and dimensions, allowing them to access, observe, and even interact with alternate realities.

The Kaleidoscope is one of the most complex and powerful magical systems in the Nasuverse, and it's a concept that represents the vast multiverse that underpins many of the events across the different stories in the Type-Moon universe.

 2.Reality Marble:- A Reality Marble in the Nasuverse is a powerful and extremely rare form of magecraft that allows a user to project their inner world onto reality, creating an alternate dimension or a bounded field that reflects the caster's psyche. It's one of the highest levels of magic, and only a few can use it, as it requires the ability to manifest an entire world independent of the laws of reality.In summary, a Reality Marble is a projection of the user's innermost self onto the world, temporarily rewriting reality. It's one of the rarest and most dangerous forms of magecraft in the Nasuverse because of its immense power and high cost.

 3.Projection magic:-  Projection magic in the Nasuverse, particularly in Fate/stay night, is a form of magecraft associated with the character Shirou Emiya. It allows a magus to create temporary copies of physical objects, especially weapons
