One common plot device is the revenge mission. For example, an assassin character might be seeking revenge for the death of their family or their lord. This was a common theme in the original Game of Thrones series as well. In fanfiction, it could be an assassin trained by the Faceless Men but using their skills for personal vengeance. Another plot device is the political assassination. A king or a powerful lord is often the target, and the assassin's actions can have far - reaching consequences for the power balance in the Seven Kingdoms.
The mystery of the assassin's identity is also a frequently used plot device. In some fanfiction, the assassin is disguised or uses false identities, and the story revolves around other characters trying to figure out who they are. This adds an element of suspense. For instance, an assassin could be posing as a simple servant in a lord's castle while waiting for the perfect moment to strike. There are also stories where the assassin has a hidden past or connection to one of the main characters, which is gradually revealed as the plot unfolds.
Many assassin - themed Game of Thrones fanfiction use the training and development of the assassin as a plot device. It could be about a young character who starts as a novice and gradually becomes a master assassin. Their training might involve learning different fighting styles, poisons, and stealth techniques. This can be a long - drawn - out process in the fanfiction, with the character facing various challenges and setbacks along the way. It also gives the writer a chance to explore the assassin culture in the Game of Thrones world more deeply.
