In an alternate universe fanfiction, Tim Drake could have different powers. He might not be the detective - like Robin we know. Instead, he could have some sort of magical ability. This could completely change his role in the universe and how he interacts with other characters like Batman and the other members of the Bat - family.
Well, in another universe, Tim Drake could be a villain instead of a hero. Maybe he had a different upbringing that led him astray. For example, if his family was involved in illegal activities, he might have been influenced by that and turned to the dark side.
One possibility in a Tim Drake in another universe fanfiction is that he could be part of a different team altogether. Instead of being associated with the Bat - family, he could be a member of a group of anti - heroes. This would mean he has a different set of values and goals. His relationships would also be very different, not just with his former allies but also with new characters in this alternate universe.
With the other Robins, like Dick Grayson and Jason Todd, his relationships would vary. If he was from a more violent universe, he might not get along with Dick's more positive and acrobatic approach. And he could have a more competitive or even hostile relationship with Jason if they were both vying for the same territory or resources in Gotham.
Well, he might receive a mysterious gift that leads him on an adventure. Maybe it's a clue to a long - forgotten case. So he starts following the trail, which takes him all around Gotham. Along the way, he runs into some of Gotham's rogues who are also intrigued by the mystery gift. But in the end, he figures it out and it turns out to be a really special present from Bruce Wayne, like a piece of his father's old detective work.
A good plot. For example, if it's an alternate universe where Tim Drake is a vampire, the story should have a well - thought - out plot around his new identity. It should also stay true to his core character traits to some extent.
In some fanfictions, it could be due to personal growth. Tim Drake might have outgrown the role of Robin or the shadow of Batman. He may want to explore his own identity and capabilities independently, away from the Bat - family. He could feel that staying with Batman is holding him back from reaching his full potential as a hero.
One possible reason could be that he feels misunderstood by his family or friends. Maybe he has some secrets that he's afraid to share, and the fear of being judged makes him run away.
Tim could end up saving Batman in the fanfiction. Despite being younger and less experienced, Tim might notice something that Batman misses during a fight. This would completely change Batman's view of him, and they could start to develop a more equal partnership.
Well, Tim Drake is a really smart and skilled detective in the DC universe. If he meets the Avengers, he could share his detective skills with them. Maybe he'd help Iron Man solve some complex tech - related mysteries that even Stark can't figure out on his own. He could also learn a lot from the Avengers' combat and teamwork styles, which are different from what he's used to in Gotham.
It could be due to a personal betrayal. For example, if he discovers that another member of the Bat Family has been hiding something important from him that makes him feel he can't trust them anymore. This would make him want to leave and create his own identity away from the family. In fanfiction, this kind of emotional turmoil can drive the story forward.
One possibility is that Tim Drake uses his detective skills, which he has from his Gotham adventures, to solve mysteries in Hogwarts. Maybe there are strange disappearances in the Forbidden Forest and he teams up with the Hogwarts students to figure it out. He could also bring his martial arts skills to the wizarding world, perhaps teaching some of the more adventurous students a thing or two about self - defense.
The plot could center around Tim Drake finding a dragon egg. Jason Fox, being curious or perhaps having ulterior motives, tries to get involved. As the dragon hatches, it imprints on Tim. They then have to deal with various challenges, like people who want to use the dragon for evil purposes. Jason could either be an ally or an antagonist throughout the story.
