Harry Freakin' Potter

Harry Freakin' Potter is the twenty-ninth playable character in Smash Bros Lawl Beatdown.
== Character Description ==
Harry Freakin Potter is the main protagonist of the A Very Potter Musical trilogy. Becoming a superstar after defeating the Dark Lord as a baby, Harry rides his success as The Boy Who Lived by playing music and charming everyone around him as a celebrity. He usually has others do things for him, and knows how to rally the people around him. Despite his fame, Harry is known in the Muggle world as a douchebag, and recognizes that he is nothing without the help of others- even fearing the end of his popularity. Regardless, Harry rides his fame as a wizard celebrity as much as he can. Harry was sorted as “Metrosexual” by the Scarf of Sexual Preference.
===Role in the Beatdown Lore===
Harry was invited to Beatdown at the request of Albus Dumbledore, being assigned to the Beatdown Training Colosseum and being the final person to arrive, following The Crystal Gems, Vriska Serket, The Batter and Mrs. Mavilda. Upon his arrival, Harry was immediately swarmed by Training Dummies, so to save himself, he summoned his guitar using Accio to do what he knows best, that being to play a song to serenade the Dummies. The method seemed to work, as it distracted not only the Dummies, but the other fighters as well. Eventually, Harry tried ringing cast Expelliarmus on the Dummies, only for the training exercise to end, and for Harry and the others to be formally invited to the roster.
To celebrate the newcomers, a party was held for them. During the party, Harry tried to make small talk with Dan Backslide, only for Dan to yell at him and pass out from intoxication. Following this, Dumbledore would walk over to and reunite with Harry, telling him a bit about Beatdown, not knowing that Mama Umbridge was staring angrily at them. Harry would later be among a small group of fighters introduced to PeanutButterGamer courtesy of Markiplier. Like the others, Harry left after PBG requested to play the Arthur board game.
Later on, when playing music in the Direct Studio with Amethyst, John Egbert, Tom and Kiran,
Harry would have his first confrontation with Umbridge after she told the group of no loud music being allowed after 7pm. When Harry refused to obey Umbridge and reminded her who he is, Umbridge physically attacked him, until he was rescued by the others. After Umbridge ran away, Harry remarked to the group over how much of a dick Umbridge is.
During the roster's monster hunting adventure in the woods, Harry was paired up with Frisk, Viola and The Batter. After they dealt with a group of Underlings, the team had a short debrief, with The Batter warning Harry that his flaunting will get him killed. Harry ignored his warning however, before Viola was compelled by the Black Cat to indirectly kill Harry and Frisk by staging an accident. Luckily, Frisk rescued Harry before they two were crushed by a falling tree, but accidentally knocked The Batter out in the process. After Frisk ended up running away with Viola giving chase, Harry ended up following them, directly to the team of Eduardo, PBG, Mavilda and Blockhead. Once PBG and Mavilda began arguing, Harry tried to defuse the situation, only for Ellen to possess Eduardo into attacking Viola, before being held back by Chara. From there, things escalated when everyone began fighting amongst themselves. Harry became distressed by this until being comforted by Frisk, who lifted his spirits and convinced him to calm everyone down. Now with his confidence back, Harry played a song which seemingly worked, before giving a speech to everyone to make amends. However, Eduardo interrupted him, warning him that there was something behind him. Upon hearing this, Harry turned around and both teams were confronted by a Geist.
== Moveset ==
=== Playstyle ===
Being the super popular talented musician of Hogwarts, Harry Freakin' Potter takes it much easier than his funny wizard counterpart. While Harry is a lot more doubtful of his talents and knows he needs to rely on his charm more than raw strength, Harry can't go face first into danger. Harry is more suited to waiting for his foe to strike and protecting himself before charming them and then being able to rack up damage. A good Harry player needs to keep the opponents charmed at all times to keep up with even the most brutal of foes.

===Special moves===
Attack 	Name 	Description
Standard special	Potter Tunes 	Harry takes out his guitar and plays a tune. Harry's music will create a small shockwave around his body and a note that's shot forward upon initial activation. You get one note initially (which activate the song effects), but the shockwave creates a radius around Harry that activates the specific song effects. Harry has three songs he can play to charm his opponents;
Side special 	Jelly Legs Jinx 	Harry casts Jelly Legs Jinx, which completely covers the opponent's bodies in green jelly. Those that have been jellified suffer from hindered movement. All grounded speed is halved, and jumps are completely cut by 3/4th for 2 seconds. While Harry uses this to help or lead into his Neutral B, you must beware that opponents can still attack as normal, and use any burst movement moves/specials. Hitting someone already jellified simply knocks them to the ground for a second. Casting this spell when an opponent is over a pit will instead bounce them upwards, without jellifying them. Be aware of the spell's slow air speed, something that can either be advantageous or a hindrance.
Up special 	Firebolt to the Sky	Harry switches into his Quidditch gear. On the ground, Harry moves forward, with the front of his broom dealing damage. And when B is pressed, he will do a swing/pose for additional damage at the end, for a max of 3 B presses. Like Marth's Side-B, he can hold a direction alongside once again pressing B a max of 3 times from different launch angles. When Harry uses this in the air, he will soar diagonally at the start, but will be able to do the inputs at the end of his flight. The grounded version lets Harry interrupt his movement for the poses, but the midair version needs him to finish the burst of flight.
Down special 	Invisibility Cloak 	Harry puts on his Invisibility Cloak. When Harry puts the cloak on, the immediate first attack against him will be nullified. However, this does not protect him from multi-hit moves, grabs or subsequent attacks. If you time a B press while nullifying an attack, Harry will counterattack by ripping the cloak off. Grabs are the only attack that cannot be nullified, but tether or command grabs will clank. Also, trying to move under the cloak invokes a shuffle in a direction followed by the removal of the cloak. This move also has a second function during startup; By tilting the analog stick, Harry will toss the cloak outwards to cover anything in front of him. This includes making items, traps and assist characters invisible and disabled for 5 seconds, and temporarily giving the move effect to an ally. Getting rid of the cloak this way invokes a 7 second cooldown, but a counter attack or normal cloak use has a 3 second cooldown. Harry can take the cloak off anytime by pressing A or after having it on for 1.5 seconds.
Final Smash 	Team Dumbledore 	Harry summons Ron Weasley, Hermione Granger and Draco Malfoy to the stage. He tells everyone to "Get those heavy knots ready! And don't cross the streams!" Then they all cast Expecto Patronum, summoning multiple patronuses, which deal knockback. The knockback angles of the patronuses depends on if the front half or back half of them make contact. After all of the patronuses are summoned, Ron, Hermione and Draco will leave.
