One great fanfiction idea could be the Dragonborn Vampire Lord's struggle to maintain his humanity while dealing with the thirst for blood. He might have to make tough choices between using his vampiric powers for good or succumbing to the dark desires that come with being a Vampire Lord.
A plot could center around the Dragonborn Vampire Lord's search for a cure. He might hear rumors of a powerful artifact or a wise mage who can reverse his vampirism. Along the way, he meets other vampires who either try to persuade him to embrace his new life or are jealous of his power. He also has to deal with the normal threats in Skyrim like dragons and bandits while trying to keep his vampiric nature a secret from those who would hunt him.
Well, the allure lies in the unique combination of two very powerful and distinct identities. The Dragonborn is already a sort of chosen one with great power, and adding the vampire element just amps up the cool factor. It can create stories full of moral dilemmas, like whether to embrace the vampiric side for more power or resist it to stay 'good'.
Skyrim vampire fanfics are interesting because they allow for a lot of creativity. Writers can explore different aspects of vampirism that are not fully explored in the game. For example, how vampires interact with different factions in Skyrim, or how they deal with their own nature in a world that is mostly hostile to them. Also, the idea of a vampire trying to survive and thrive in the Skyrim world, with all its challenges like dragons and magic, makes for very engaging stories. It can also be interesting to see how vampire characters develop relationships with other characters in the Skyrim universe, whether it's love, friendship, or enmity.
Well, 'Blood and Shadows' is a well - written Skyrim vampire fanfic. It has an interesting plot that involves a vampire trying to navigate the complex politics of Skyrim while hiding his true nature. Then there's 'Midnight's Vampire' which has a really engaging main character. This vampire is different from the usual stereotypes and has his own unique backstory and goals. And don't forget about 'Vampire's Alliance' which shows how vampires can form alliances with other races in Skyrim for mutual benefit.
Well, start with his origin. If he's a vampire in Skyrim, he could have been turned during a dark ritual gone wrong. In terms of skills, he might be a master of stealth, slipping through the shadows easily. And his relationships in the fanfiction could be complex. He could be both feared and secretly admired by other characters.
Bonnie also often shows up as a main character. As a witch, she has the power to help in the search for the cure. Her friendship with Elena and her loyalty to her friends make her an important part of the story. She might be using her magic to locate the cure or protect it from falling into the wrong hands.
One great 'The Cure' Vampire Diaries fanfiction is 'The Search for the Cure'. It focuses on the characters' desperate attempts to find the cure and all the challenges they face along the way. The story really delves into the relationships between the characters as they're forced to work together or against each other in the pursuit of this elusive cure.
Unique character development. A well - crafted original character (OC) that has a complex personality, backstory, and motives can make the fanfiction stand out. For example, an OC vampire who struggles with their newfound vampirism while also having to deal with the politics and power struggles in Skyrim.
One common theme is the struggle with vampiric nature. Female vampires often have to deal with their bloodlust and the moral implications of feeding on others. Another theme is isolation, as they are often shunned by society in Skyrim.
