What are the most common themes in 'Game of Thrones' TV Tropes fanfic?

One popular trope is the 'lost heir' trope. In many fanfics, a character is revealed to be the long - lost heir to a great house or even the Iron Throne. This adds an element of mystery and drama. Another is the 'undercover hero' trope, where a character pretends to be someone they're not in order to achieve a greater good. For example, a spy within a rival house.

One popular trope is the 'stranger in a strange land'. Vikings arriving in Westeros or vice versa, and having to navigate the new and often dangerous culture. For example, a Viking warrior might struggle to understand the complex politics of the Seven Kingdoms in 'Game of Thrones'.

The 'romantic crossover' is also quite popular. A character from Game of Thrones might fall in love with a character from Elder Scrolls. This can lead to all sorts of interesting plot developments as they come from different cultures and backgrounds. It also allows for exploration of the different concepts of love and relationships in both universes. For instance, the arranged marriages in Game of Thrones contrast with the more diverse forms of relationships in Elder Scrolls.

One popular trope is the 'fish - out - of - water' story. For example, a character from Elder Scrolls suddenly finds themselves in the unfamiliar and often brutal world of Game of Thrones. Another is the power - sharing trope, where a character from Elder Scrolls with special powers teams up with a Game of Thrones character to gain more power or to fight a common enemy.

The 'culture clash' trope is quite popular. The different cultures in Star Wars, like the Jedi culture, and the cultures in Game of Thrones, such as the Dothraki culture, can create interesting situations when they interact. Another trope is the 'lost technology' in Game of Thrones being re - discovered by a Star Wars character. It's like a Star Wars engineer finding an ancient weapon in Westeros and trying to figure out how to use it. And the trope of 'fated enemies' can also be explored, where a character from Star Wars is fated to oppose a character from Game of Thrones due to some ancient prophecy or power imbalance.

One of the great ones could be 'A Song of Ice and Fire: The Lost Chapters'. It fills in some of the gaps in the original story in a really engaging way. It has well - developed characters and a plot that weaves in and out of the existing lore seamlessly.

Power dynamics is also a frequent theme. Since power is such a central part of the Game of Thrones world, it often plays into the GXG relationships. Maybe one character is a noble and the other a commoner, and they have to deal with the differences in their status while being in love. Another aspect could be two powerful women vying for power and finding love in the process.

Since we should avoid promoting NSFW content, let's consider the common themes in general 'Game of Thrones' fanfic. One common theme is power struggles, just like in the original series. Another is loyalty and betrayal. Characters' complex relationships are often explored in fanfic, and how they navigate through the dangerous political and social landscapes of Westeros.

Survival is also a big theme. Xander has to adapt to the harsh and unforgiving world of Westeros. He faces challenges like the cold, lack of food, and enemies at every turn. Another theme is loyalty. Xander has to decide who he can trust among the many devious characters in the Game of Thrones universe, and his choices regarding loyalty greatly impact the story.

Power struggle is a common theme. Just like in both the Witcher and Game of Thrones, characters are often vying for control over territories or resources. For example, in many fanfics, Witchers may get involved in the fight for the Iron Throne.
