Fanfiction may also re - imagine Joffrey by giving him different relationships. For instance, he could have a positive relationship with Tyrion instead of being his tormentor. This would change the whole dynamic of their interactions and the story as a whole. It could explore how their new - found friendship or at least tolerance could affect the events in King's Landing.
In some fanfictions, Joffrey is re - imagined as a more sympathetic character. His cruel actions are often explained as a result of his upbringing and the political pressures around him.
Some fanfictions might focus on an alternate universe where Joffrey is not a king. He could be a simple knight, and the story could explore how his personality would develop without the power and privilege of the throne. He might learn humility and honor in a different way.
Well, this fanfiction re - imagines the story quite drastically. When you change the genders of characters, you also change their upbringing, their goals, and their place in society. For example, if Sansa was a boy, he would not have been betrothed in the same way as she was as a girl. His education and training would be more focused on combat and leadership skills suitable for a male heir. In the political arena, a female Varys might use her femininity to her advantage in a different way than the male Varys used his intelligence and network. This gender - bending allows for a fresh look at the complex world of 'Game of Thrones' and all its intricate storylines.
To develop a male OC Baratheon, start with his physical appearance. Maybe he has the typical Baratheon black hair and blue eyes, but with a scar on his face from a battle. Then think about his personality. He could be proud like most Baratheons, but also have a sense of humor.
Joffrey is often characterized as even more cruel and unhinged in fanfiction. His violent outbursts and lack of mercy are sometimes exaggerated. Margaery is usually shown as a very intelligent and manipulative woman. She uses her beauty and charm to her advantage.
One possible fanfiction could start with Robert Baratheon as a young man. He is full of ambition and dreams of a united Westeros under his rule. He trains hard in combat, his sword becoming an extension of himself. He meets his future friends, like Ned Stark, during these formative years. They share tales around the campfire and make grand plans for the future. As he grows older, he participates in battles, his victories making him more and more renowned. His charisma draws people to him, and soon he is seen as a natural leader. But with power also comes temptation, and he has to face the challenges of politics and intrigue that come his way.
It often makes Harry more in touch with his emotions. Instead of just being the brave hero, he becomes someone who is also vulnerable and shows his feelings openly. For instance, he might cry more easily or be more affectionate towards his friends.
Well, one way could be through a magical portal. Imagine Naruto, with his ninja skills, suddenly appears in the world of Westeros. His abilities like shadow clones could be mistaken for some dark magic in the Game of Thrones universe. He might team up with the Baratheons, perhaps using his skills to help them in battles, especially against the White Walkers if we're thinking of a scenario where he arrives during that threat.
Joffrey was a cruel character. It's hard to imagine a traditional love story for him. His nature was so malicious that any form of love seemed out of place. He was more interested in power and causing pain. So, in the context of the show, a real love story for him seems almost impossible.
There could be a really interesting fanfic where a Dragonborn enters the world of Game of Thrones during Joffrey's reign. Maybe the Dragonborn would initially be seen as a threat by Joffrey. But the Dragonborn's powers could change the power dynamics in King's Landing. For example, if the Dragonborn has the ability to control dragons, it would be a huge advantage over the Lannisters who rely mainly on their wealth and military might at that time.
In the context of the fanfic, the Dragonborn's presence could also expose Joffrey's weaknesses more clearly. The people of Westeros, seeing someone with such great power (the Dragonborn) who is not as cruel as Joffrey, might be more inspired to rise up against Joffrey. And Joffrey's own allies might start to question their loyalty to him when they see the Dragonborn as a potential new power player in the game of thrones.
