One popular idea is a httyd and How to Train Your Knight crossover. Imagine the dragons in a world filled with knights and castles. Another could be a crossover with a modern - day setting, like httyd characters in a big city dealing with new challenges. And there's also the idea of a crossover with a fantasy world like Middle - earth, where the dragons interact with different magical creatures.
A cool concept would be a hybrid character. Imagine a Spartan who has been genetically altered with some dragon DNA. This character could have the strength and combat skills of a Spartan along with the ability to breathe fire or fly like a dragon. Or perhaps the Covenant could be interested in the dragons in the HTTYD world because they see them as a new form of powerful weaponry to add to their arsenal.
Another interesting concept is a villain crossover. Mother Gothel could team up with a dragon hunter from HTTYD. They could both have their own motives, like Mother Gothel wanting to use the dragons to keep Rapunzel trapped forever, and the dragon hunter just wanting to capture the dragons for profit. Hiccup and Rapunzel would then have to join forces to stop them. This would create a lot of action - filled scenes and also some interesting character interactions as they try to outwit the villains.
In a rotg and httyd crossover fanfiction, perhaps the Guardians could come to Berk to protect it from a new threat. Pitch Black might team up with some dragon hunters, and the httyd characters along with the Guardians would have to work together. Hiccup could learn some new skills from the Guardians, like how to be more stealthy from Jack Frost, and the Guardians could be in awe of the dragons' intelligence and strength.
One idea could be that Danny's ghost powers somehow interact with the dragons in HTTYD. For example, his intangibility might make him able to pass through dragon fire without getting burned, and this could be a crucial skill when dealing with a new, more dangerous breed of dragons. Another idea is that Danny gets transported to the world of HTTYD and has to use his ghostly abilities to fit in and help the Vikings. Maybe he can use his flight ability to race against the dragons, which would be an exciting plot point.
Perhaps the vikings of Berk accidentally open a portal to Spyro's realm while exploring a new area. Spyro is intrigued by the vikings and their relationship with dragons. Meanwhile, Hiccup tries to understand Spyro's abilities and how they can be used to improve Berk's defenses. They could team up to rescue some baby dragons that were captured by an evil force from both their worlds.
One popular trope is the 'fish out of water' situation. For example, a character from HTTYD finding themselves in the world of HOO and being completely confused by the Greek gods and demigods. Another is the 'team - up' trope, where the dragon riders and the demigods join forces to defeat a powerful enemy. A third one could be the 'culture clash' trope, with the Vikings from HTTYD having different values and ways of life compared to the modern - day (sort of) world of HOO.
One popular theme is the combination of different kinds of magic. The ice magic from Frozen and the dragon - related magic in HTTYD. Another theme could be friendship across different worlds. Characters from HTTYD like Hiccup and those from Frozen like Anna forming an unlikely alliance. Also, the theme of discovery, as the characters from one world discover the wonders of the other world.
Once upon a time in the land of Berk, Hiccup was flying on Toothless when a strange magic portal opened. Out of it came Merida from the land of DunBroch. Hiccup was startled but curious. Merida was amazed by the dragons. They decided to team up. Hiccup showed Merida how to ride Toothless and in return, Merida taught Hiccup some of her archery skills. Together they went on an adventure to save both their lands from a common enemy that was using dark magic.
One idea could be to focus on how Astrid and Hiccup prepare for the baby. They might start building a new addition to their home on Berk. Hiccup could be super protective, while Astrid is determined to still be involved in dragon - related activities as much as she can until she can't anymore.
