The theme of changing fate also frequently appears. As the oc is reborn as Regulus, they have the knowledge of the future events. So, they attempt to change the fate of not only Regulus but also the fate of the entire wizarding world. This could involve preventing certain deaths or stopping the rise of the Dark Lord in a different way than what happened in the original story.
Another theme is identity. The oc has to adjust to being Regulus Black, which means taking on his appearance, his family history, and his place in the wizarding society. They often struggle with whether to fully embrace this new identity or hold on to some part of their original self. It's like a journey of self - discovery within the framework of someone else's life.

Isolation is another theme. Given his situation, Regulus often finds himself alone. He can't fully trust his family, and he's also involved in dangerous and secretive activities.

For example, she might befriend characters who knew her father or are also dealing with their own family issues.
