One idea is to have a cover with a ship sailing through rough seas. The waves are huge and crashing against the ship, and there are dark clouds overhead. This is perfect for adventure novels that involve sea voyages and facing the perils of the ocean.
How about an adventure based on a time - travel concept? The main character accidentally activates a time - traveling device and is sent to a different era, like the Middle Ages or the prehistoric age. In the Middle Ages, they might get involved in a quest for a powerful sword that can change the course of history. In the prehistoric age, they have to survive among dinosaurs and deal with primitive tribes.
An image of a lone adventurer standing on a cliff overlooking a vast and wild landscape. It could be a mountainous region with a storm brewing in the distance, which gives a feeling of both danger and excitement.
A hickey could be disguised as a mark from a clumsy moment with a hair straightener or curling iron. You can say, 'I was in a hurry this morning and accidentally touched my neck with my hot hair straightener. It hurt so much and now this mark is here.' This is a common enough accident that people are likely to believe it.
The Great Expedition. It's a simple yet effective title. 'Expedition' clearly indicates an adventure, and 'great' adds a sense of grandeur, making the reader expect a large - scale and exciting adventure.
A ship at sea could be haunted. The crew starts noticing strange things like cold spots on the deck, and the sound of someone crying. They see a shadowy figure climbing the rigging. The story could be that a sailor was wrongly accused of a crime and thrown overboard to his death, and now his ghost haunts the ship.
An interesting idea for a fantasy story would be a world where time is a physical substance that can be manipulated. The main character could be a thief who steals time from the rich and gives it to the poor. Or, a story about a girl who wakes up in a world where all the fairytale characters are real, but they are all in a deep sleep, and she has to find a way to wake them up.
The death of a dream. For example, a young artist has always dreamed of having his work shown in a famous gallery. He works hard for years, sacrificing relationships and his own well - being. But in the end, due to some political and financial issues in the art world, his work is rejected time and time again. Eventually, he gives up his dream and is left with a deep sense of sadness and regret for all the time and energy he wasted.
A story about a detective who is trying to solve a series of mysterious disappearances in a big city. There are no obvious clues, and the victims seem to have no connection at first. But as the detective digs deeper, they start to uncover a dark conspiracy that involves powerful people in the city.
Sure. How about a story set in a world where music has magic powers? Different melodies can heal, destroy or transform things. The protagonist could be a young musician who discovers their unique ability to control this musical magic. Another idea is a graphic novel about a group of underground miners who accidentally break through to a hidden world filled with strange bioluminescent creatures and valuable crystals. They have to decide whether to keep it a secret or share it with the surface world. A third idea could be a graphic novel that follows the life of a superhero who has lost their powers but still tries to fight crime using their wits and martial arts skills.
Wilderness - related words like 'jungle', 'desert' or'mountainous'. These words can be used to set the scene for the adventure. If the story takes place in a jungle, it immediately brings to mind images of thick vegetation, strange animals and hidden dangers.
