Merlin as a Borrower Fanfiction: What are some interesting plot ideas?

One plot idea could be Merlin and Nimue teaming up to save a magical forest that is being threatened by dark forces. They could use their combined magic to fend off the evil entities. Another idea is a time - travel plot where they are sent to the future and have to adapt to the new world while also finding a way back. And perhaps a plot where they are wrongly accused of a crime in Camelot and have to prove their innocence together.

One idea could be Merlin having to deal with the political intrigue of being a king. He might face challenges from nobles who don't trust his magic. Another could be Merlin using his magic in unique ways to improve the kingdom, like creating new irrigation systems for farmers. Or perhaps he has to form alliances with other kingdoms while hiding his true identity as a powerful sorcerer.

One idea could be that Merlin, as a wizard, is hunted by vampires because his magic is seen as a threat to their existence. But then he discovers that some vampires are not as evil as he thought and they form an uneasy alliance to fight a common enemy, like a dark sorcerer.

One idea could be exploring a different magical realm within the 'the merlin conspiracy' universe. Maybe there's a hidden land where the magic is more primal and ancient. Another could be a story about a young wizard who discovers they have a unique connection to Merlin himself and must use that to stop a new dark threat.

A plot could involve Merlin getting cursed and the knights having to find a way to break it without Merlin's magic to guide them. They might have to rely on old legends and their own wits to save him. This could lead to some great character development for the knights as they face challenges they usually rely on Merlin to solve.

Well, it could be Agravaine. He's always looking for ways to gain power and influence in Camelot. If he finds out about Merlin as a borrower and the unique situation, he might try to use it to his advantage. He could either try to expose Merlin to gain favor with Uther or try to control Merlin and use his magic for his own dark purposes. Also, there could be a group of anti - borrower humans in the castle. They might be superstitious or just plain cruel and they could be the main antagonists as they try to hunt down Merlin and the other borrowers.

The child could be a bridge between the two opposing sides that Merlin and Morgana represent. The child's innocence and unique perspective could start to change the views of those around them, leading to a possible reconciliation between Merlin's side and Morgana's followers. This would involve a lot of character development for the child as well as for Merlin and Morgana as they see the world through the eyes of their offspring.

Well, an interesting plot idea could involve Merlin meeting other dragonlords from different lands. He might have to team up with them to defeat a common enemy that threatens all magic - users. Also, a plot where Merlin loses his dragonlord powers temporarily and has to find a way to regain them while still protecting Camelot would be engaging. Additionally, a story where the dragons start to lose their magic due to a curse, and Merlin has to find a way to break it could be really cool.

Perhaps in a fantasy world, a rich lord takes Merlin as his 'sugar baby' not realizing Merlin's true potential as a powerful wizard. As time goes on, Merlin uses his influence over the lord to bring about positive changes in the kingdom, like improving the living conditions of the poor. This could lead to a complex relationship where the lord slowly discovers Merlin's magic and they have to deal with the consequences.

One idea could be Merlin having to face a powerful dark magic that not only threatens Camelot but also his own identity as a sorcerer. Another could be a story where Merlin discovers a long - lost relative who has a connection to an ancient magic that could either save or destroy Camelot. Or perhaps a plot where Merlin is transported to a parallel Camelot and has to find his way back while dealing with differences in that world.
