It could also be related to her connection to Harry Potter and Ron Weasley. As part of the Golden Trio, Hermione is closely associated with the main characters who oppose the Death Eaters. In fanfiction, the Death Eaters might target her to get to Harry or use her to break the trio's bond, which is a significant aspect of the original story.
One possible reason could be Hermione's intelligence. In the Harry Potter series, she is extremely smart, and the Death Eaters might be intrigued by someone with such powerful intellect in a fanfiction scenario. They could see her as a valuable asset or a challenging target.
She could face legal issues in the wizarding world. Killing is not taken lightly, even if it's Death Eaters she's killing. There might be a trial to determine if her actions were justified. If the wizarding authorities are corrupt or influenced by the wrong people, she could even be wrongly convicted.
One consequence could be that she is forced to perform dark magic against her will. This would be a huge moral struggle for her, as Hermione is a firm believer in the light side of magic. It could also change her perception of herself and her magic abilities in a very negative way.
Well, it could start with Hermione being kidnapped by the Death Eaters at a young age. She might be forced to attend their dark magic lessons. However, she uses her intelligence to learn about their weaknesses. For instance, she could discover a flaw in the security spells around their lair. And then, as she grows up, she could start to subtly manipulate the Death Eaters into fighting among themselves, all while pretending to be a loyal follower.
Perhaps in the fanfiction, Hermione has something that the Death Eaters are after, like a powerful magical artifact. They fight over who gets to take her prisoner first in order to extract the location of this artifact from her. It could also be that they are under the orders of Voldemort to capture her alive, but they start fighting among themselves due to personal rivalries and the desire for glory within the Death Eater ranks.
Well, she could end up in a duel with a powerful Death Eater. Hermione is a very skilled witch, so it would be a great show of her magical abilities. Maybe she discovers a new spell during the fight that helps her gain the upper hand.
A possible plotline could be that a Death Eater discovers Hermione has knowledge of a powerful spell or magic item that could help them overthrow Voldemort. So, they save her to get that information. For example, she might know of a way to break a powerful curse that Voldemort has placed on them.
In a more complex scenario, the fanfiction could involve Hermione being lured into a trap by a seemingly innocent situation that was actually set up by the Death Eaters. Once captured, she would have to use her wits to survive. She could try to outsmart them by using her vast knowledge of magic and the secrets she knows about the wizarding world. This could lead to a series of intense confrontations between Hermione and the Death Eaters.
Hermione could resist the Death Eaters with her vast knowledge of magic. For example, she could use protective spells and charms she has learned from her studies. She might also use her quick thinking to outwit them in verbal exchanges, not giving them any information or advantage.
In this fanfiction, Hermione could rehabilitate Death Eaters by showing them the error of their ways. She may expose them to the harm they've caused to both the Muggle - born and the wizarding community at large. By making them face the consequences of their actions on a personal level, like the families they've torn apart, she might start to change their views.
No. Fanfiction that involves such a premise can often contain dark and mature themes. It might not be suitable for younger audiences who are not ready to handle complex and sometimes disturbing ideas. There could be elements of violence, moral ambiguity, and adult relationships that are not appropriate for kids.
