One common theme is conflict. Given that Colonel Tavington is often portrayed as a rather harsh character, there's bound to be conflict with the OC, whether it's ideological or personal.
Another theme could be redemption. The OC might be the catalyst for the colonel to seek redemption for his past actions. This could involve the OC showing him a different way of life or making him question his loyalty and actions. It can also involve themes of forgiveness and transformation as the colonel changes due to his relationship with the OC.
Love and attraction can also be common themes. Despite his actions, the colonel might be seen as an alluring figure in the eyes of the OC. It could be a case of 'love - hate' relationship too, where the OC is drawn to him but also repulsed by his deeds.
In such fanfiction, the relationship often explores a complex dynamic. Colonel William Tavington is a character with his own set of traits. The OC (original character) can be crafted to either oppose him, be attracted to him, or have a more nuanced relationship. It could involve themes of power struggle if the OC is on the opposite side in the story's context, or a forbidden love if there are barriers like different loyalties.
Another theme is the exploration of his motives. Fanfiction writers like to dig deeper into what made Tavington act the way he did in the original work. This could involve looking at his loyalty to the British army, his personal beliefs, or his relationships with other characters.
One good story could be 'The Redemption of Tavington' where the OC helps Tavington see a different side of the conflict. It shows a unique relationship development between them.
First, research about the character of William Tavington. Know his traits, his actions in the original story. Then, create your OC with a clear personality and backstory. Start with an interesting encounter between them.
There's also 'Tavington's Untold Story'. This fanfiction delves into his backstory, exploring what might have led him to become the character we see in the original work. It adds depth to his persona and has some really engaging dialogue.
Romance is a very common theme. Writers often explore the relationship between William Lennox and the OC, how they fall in love, overcome obstacles together. Another theme could be adventure, especially if it's set within the context of the Transformers universe where Lennox is from. They might go on missions together and their relationship develops during those dangerous situations.
One common theme is friendship. The original characters often form strong bonds with William Lennox, like in many fanfics where they start as strangers but become comrades through shared experiences.
Friendship is a big theme too. The OC might be a new friend to William, and they help each other through difficult times. It could be at Hogwarts, or during some wizarding crisis. Mystery is also a theme. The OC might have a mysterious past or a special power that is slowly revealed throughout the story. This adds an element of intrigue. And of course, there's the theme of self - discovery. As the OC and William interact, they both learn more about themselves, their values, and their place in the wizarding world.
Another theme is friendship. Writers often explore how Ronald and William's friendship develops and deepens. They could support each other through tough times, like when one of them is facing a difficult task or a personal problem. It can be really heartwarming to read about their bond.
Growth is also a typical theme. They start from a certain point in their relationship and as the story progresses, they grow both as individuals and as a duo. This can be in terms of emotional maturity, understanding of the world around them, or in their skills. And sometimes, the theme of mystery is added, like they are trying to solve a mystery together which tests their bond.
