My favorite character in Harry Potter is Severus Snape. To me he is the perfect combination of good and evil. The good doesn't make up for his sins while his evil acts don't make him irredeemable. It's also fascinating to see people in the fandom be completely divided on him as they focus on only one aspect of his character.

Albus Dumbledore has done many horrifying things but the fandom, for the most part, adores the character to the point of thinking of him as a saint. This shows that Snape's character arc, while I love it, was done wrong. The majority of the fandom should have hated Snape but eventually learned to love him.

With this post I will show a few different ways that his character could have been changed so the majority of the fandom would love him.
