Another idea for the fanfiction could center around their relationship. Perhaps it explores how Merlin has always been intrigued by Escanor's duality - his meek self at night and his powerful self during the day. It could show how they gradually develop a deeper understanding and respect for each other, which might even turn into a romantic relationship over time.
One great fanfiction is 'The Sun and the Sorceress'. It beautifully explores the relationship between Escanor and Merlin. It delves into how their different powers and personalities interact. The story has some really heart - warming moments where Escanor's pride is shown in a new light in relation to his feelings for Merlin.
One great fanfiction could be titled 'The Unseen Bond'. In this story, Merlin and Escanor's relationship might be explored in a world where they have to overcome a new threat to the Seven Deadly Sins. It could show how Merlin's magic and Escanor's strength combine in unique ways. Maybe there's a scene where Escanor in his 'The One' form is protecting Merlin while she casts a powerful spell that could save them all.
The appeal of 'Seven Deadly Sins Escanor Crossover Fanfiction' lies in the character of Escanor himself. His overpowered nature and his unique personality traits, like his pride which is linked to his power, make for interesting crossovers. He can be paired with various characters from other series, creating new and exciting storylines.
Their personalities. Escanor's pride and his noble nature contrast with Merlin's mysterious and often calculating ways. When writers bring these two personalities together, it creates a lot of tension and potential for character development. For example, Escanor might be forced to look beyond his pride when dealing with Merlin, and Merlin might open up more because of Escanor's straightforwardness. This makes for great storytelling.
A plot could be that Escanor and Merlin are tasked with training a new generation of knights. They have different teaching styles, with Escanor focusing on physical and mental fortitude, and Merlin on magical abilities. This leads to some humorous and also some tense moments as they try to work together.
There's also 'Escanor and the Mysterious Alliance'. In this fanfiction, Escanor teams up with characters from other series in a crossover. It's exciting because it combines different universes' elements. The fight scenes are vividly described, and you can feel the power of Escanor throughout the story.
Love and loyalty are also big themes. The relationship between Escanor and the OC can range from a deep friendship to a romantic love. In some fanfictions, the OC will be fiercely loyal to Escanor, even in the face of great danger. It's also common to see the theme of self - discovery. The OC, through their interactions with Escanor, discovers more about themselves, their abilities, and their place in the world of the seven deadly sins.
Maybe a plot where Merlin discovers a prophecy that only Escanor can fulfill, but it requires him to sacrifice something dear to him. They embark on a journey to find a way around the sacrifice while also falling in love along the way. There could be many challenges like facing ancient guardians and deciphering cryptic riddles.
One great piece of fanfiction could be 'Escanor's Unlikely Bond' where the OC has a unique backstory that ties in well with Escanor's pride. The OC might be a mage with a hidden power that only Escanor can help unlock, creating a really interesting dynamic between them.
