A good plot might be a story of a forgotten hero from the past who is resurrected. This hero doesn't remember who they are at first. But as they start to regain their memories, they realize they have a mission to fulfill - to defeat a powerful dragon that was once sealed away but is now awakening. The hero has to relearn their skills and gather allies in this new world they've woken up to.
A story could revolve around a portal to another dimension that has opened up. People start disappearing into this other world which is filled with strange and dangerous beings. A small group of adventurers decides to enter the portal to rescue the missing people and close it before something even more terrifying comes through.
There could be a plot where a magical forest is slowly dying. A young forest spirit has to find the source of the curse that is killing the forest. Along the journey, they meet different woodland creatures and wise old trees who give them clues. The spirit must also face a dark force that is behind the curse.
Another good plot is a world where dreams are real places. A sleepwalker accidentally enters the dream world of a powerful nightmare entity. This entity is trying to break into the real world through the dreams of people. The sleepwalker has to find a way to wake up and also stop the nightmare entity in the dream world. They team up with other dream - walkers and friendly dream creatures to fight against the evil entity.
A hiker gets lost in a forest and stumbles upon an old, dilapidated cabin. Inside, there are strange markings on the walls and a diary. As he reads the diary, he realizes it was written by a previous hiker who had also been lost and was slowly going insane from something in the forest. Then, he starts to hear growls outside and see pairs of glowing eyes through the window. He's trapped inside with whatever is out there.
One example of a plot for fantasy stories is the chosen one plot. A character is chosen by some higher power or prophecy to do great things. This is seen in many stories, such as 'The Matrix' where Neo is the chosen one. Another plot could be the exploration of an ancient, magical ruin. The characters search for treasures or knowledge within it. And a plot about a group of misfits coming together to form a powerful team, like the Fellowship in 'The Lord of the Rings' which consisted of different races and personalities.
A great fanfiction plot could be a reverse - gender version of a story. In a Pirates of the Caribbean fanfic, Elizabeth Swann could be the main pirate, and Jack Sparrow could be the governor's daughter (in a gender - flipped role). Their relationship dynamics would change completely, and the story could explore how Elizabeth rises to power as a pirate and how Jack adapts to a more 'civilized' life. Another plot could be a story where the villains team up. In a Disney villains fanfic, Maleficent, Ursula, and Jafar join forces to take over all the Disney kingdoms. The heroes from different stories then have to band together to stop them.
One example of an action plot is a time - travel adventure. A scientist accidentally sends himself back in time to a period full of warlords and has to use his modern - day knowledge to survive and find a way back. Another plot is a battle between superheroes and super - villains. The superheroes have to protect the city from the villains' evil plans. Also, a plot could be about a treasure hunter who discovers a map to a lost pirate treasure but has to deal with rival treasure hunters and dangerous sea creatures on the journey.
Sure. The 'secret admirer' plot is a classic. One person has a deep love for another but is too shy or afraid to reveal it. They leave little hints and gifts anonymously. Eventually, the truth comes out, and the recipient has to decide how they feel about this person who has been secretly loving them.
Sure. A story about a girl who discovers she is a descendant of a powerful dark faerie. She is hunted by the light faeries who fear her potential power. She has to embrace her dark heritage to survive and find a place where she can belong.
Imagine a land where plants have souls and can communicate with humans. A gardener discovers that she can understand the plants and they start to give her clues about a coming disaster. A large corporation is planning to build a huge factory on the land, which will destroy the natural habitat of these sentient plants. The gardener must find a way to convince the people in power to stop the construction and protect the plants and the magic that they hold.
One idea could be a fantasy world where there is a magical library that contains all the knowledge of the universe. But to access it, one has to pass through a series of dangerous and magical trials. Another great idea is a story about a group of thieves who steal magical items from powerful wizards and sorceresses. And then there could be a world where there are magical portals that lead to different dimensions, and the main character has to close them to prevent an invasion from other - worldly beings. This can lead to a lot of exciting adventures as they travel through different dimensions.
Windsor. It has an air of royalty and grandeur. It could be used for a character from a noble family in a historical or fantasy story, where the name itself can convey power and privilege.
