How do the characters in 'dragon slayers turn into dragons fanfiction' usually deal with the transformation?

One common reason could be a curse. Maybe they unknowingly violated some ancient rule or pact while slaying dragons, and as a result, a curse is placed upon them that gradually transforms them into the very creatures they hunt. For example, they might have desecrated a dragon's lair that was protected by a powerful magic.

In many fanfictions, it might be a metaphorical transformation. The dragon slayers start to exhibit dragon - like behaviors such as becoming more territorial or hoarding things, which symbolizes their inner change. They could also be influenced by dragon magic in a way that their physical form changes. This concept often adds a new layer of depth to the story, exploring the idea of how the hunter can become the hunted.

A possible origin in the fanfiction world could be an ancient prophecy. Maybe there was always a hidden prophecy that said dragon slayers would one day turn into the very creatures they hunted. This would add an element of fate to the story. Another idea is that it could be part of a dark ritual. The slayers unknowingly perform a ritual during their battles that slowly turns them into dragons.

One way could be through a magical spell or curse in the fictional world. Maybe an evil sorcerer wants to weaken the dragon slayers and turns them into children, which then becomes the basis for a fanfiction where they have to navigate the world in their child forms.

Well, first of all, they would be more curious. Instead of just focusing on their missions or fighting dragons, they'd be interested in everything around them. The once fearless Dragon Slayers might be a bit more timid as kids, especially when faced with things that are new or a bit scary. Their competitive streaks might also show in different ways, like competing to see who could climb a tree the fastest instead of who could defeat the most powerful enemy. And they'd be more likely to show their feelings openly, whether it's affection for their friends or sadness when they're scolded.

Often, dragons are portrayed as powerful and majestic creatures. They might be huge, with scaly bodies and the ability to breathe fire. For example, in 'Eragon', the dragons are shown as intelligent beings with their own language and culture.

In dragon school novels, dragons are often portrayed as powerful and majestic creatures. They might have the ability to fly, breathe fire or other elements like ice or lightning. For example, in 'Eragon', Saphira is a large and intelligent dragon with great strength and magical abilities.

One possible plot could be that they lose their powers along with their adult forms. They have to rely on their wits and the kindness of others in the magical world. Maybe they end up in a situation where they need to find a way to reverse the spell while also dealing with the challenges of being kids, like not being taken seriously by the adults in their guilds.

A possible plotline could be that as children, they are separated from each other. Each has to find their way back to the group while facing various challenges suitable for children, like making friends in a new village or dealing with simple bullies. As they progress, they start to remember bits of their dragon slayer past.

The main character is always Hiccup as his dragon transformation drives the story. Alongside him, Toothless is crucial. Their bond might be enhanced or changed by the transformation. Astrid is typically there as she has a strong relationship with Hiccup. In addition, Gobber could be a significant character. He has a wealth of knowledge about dragons and could help Hiccup understand and manage his new form. The elders of the village might also be involved, as they may have old tales or knowledge related to such a transformation.
