Survival is a powerful theme. It can involve characters struggling to survive in a post - apocalyptic world, or in a harsh natural environment. 'The Hunger Games' is based on this theme, where the characters have to fight for their survival in a brutal game.
Friendship. Stories about the bond between friends can be really engaging. For example, two friends who support each other through thick and thin, like when one friend is going through a tough time at school or work and the other is always there to cheer them up.
Sure. A horror theme can be really engaging. It creates an atmosphere of fear and suspense, like in 'Resident Evil' where players have to survive in a world filled with zombies and other terrifying creatures. Steampunk is also a cool theme. It combines Victorian - era aesthetics with steam - powered machinery and advanced technology. Games like 'Bioshock Infinite' have elements of steampunk. And then there's the theme of war. War - themed games can range from historical battles, like in 'Call of Duty' series which often recreates World War II scenarios, to fictional intergalactic wars.
Curses. A family or a community being haunted by an ancient curse that brings misfortune and death. For instance, every generation might face a strange and deadly phenomenon because of a long - forgotten curse. This creates a sense of inevitability and doom.
The concept of 'fate vs. free will' is also a good one. Characters can struggle with whether their lives are pre - determined or if they have the power to shape their own destinies. This can lead to a lot of philosophical exploration within the story.
One theme is the pursuit of dreams. This could be about a character who has a big dream, like becoming a famous artist or an astronaut. But they face many obstacles in the process, such as lack of money or family opposition. The story can show how they strive to overcome these difficulties.
Friendship. Stories about friends supporting each other through tough times are always heartwarming. For instance, two friends who start a business together and face various setbacks but always have each other's backs.
Sure. 'The Confused Ghost' is a good one. A ghost that doesn't remember how to be spooky and ends up doing really silly things like trying to scare people with a party horn instead of a spooky moan. Another is 'The Runaway Gingerbread Man in the City'. Instead of running in the forest, he's running through the city streets, dodging cars and causing a ruckus in the local bakery. 'The Sleepwalking Supervillain' is also funny. A supervillain who sleepwalks and unknowingly does good deeds while thinking he's still up to no good.
Windsor. It has an air of royalty and grandeur. It could be used for a character from a noble family in a historical or fantasy story, where the name itself can convey power and privilege.
Revenge can be a theme. It can drive the plot forward as a character seeks to get back at someone who wronged them. Another is redemption. A character trying to make up for past mistakes. Time - travel is also a cool theme. It allows for interesting twists as characters interact with different time periods.
One good theme is courage. For example, in 'The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe', the children show great courage in the face of the White Witch and her evil plans. They risk their lives to save Narnia.
