[[!meta title="No Mere Basilisk"]]
The Beast of Slytherin wasn't a basilisk; that was just a monster that moved in
later. Instead, the Beast is something much darker; a demon, who recognizes
Harry as the next heir.
This is basically just an excuse to introduce super!Harry at a reasonably early
year, by giving Harry a tutor interested in making him great, as per the Sorting
Hat's original recommendation.
Some possibilities:
* The demon has to be contained to the Chamber of Secrets, or there's no reason
for any of the other characters to get involved in conflict.
* Does Harry have to pay for his training, or did Slytherin already reach a
bargain?
* Can other characters be trained, or will the demon only recognize Harry?
* Either Tom was not accepted by the demon and left the basilisk to prevent
others from finding it, or the demon simply never recognized him as a worthy
heir and he thought the basilisk was the Beast. I prefer the latter, I think.
