Many of you already read Girl!Merlin or Fem!Merlin stories. These are my favorite story type. Second is Bamf and pro-active and Dark Merlin and Trained Merlin. But also there is combined version of this stories. Also this stories mostly includes girl!Merlin/Arthur pairing.
So basically I love this types:
A)) Unlimited Changing Story Types:
İf you didn't like normal Merlin in BBC, this category is for you! Change your characters as you wish. No Limits!
A.1)) Girl!Merlin Stories
1- Fem!Bamf!Pro-Active!İntelligent!Slight-Dark!Trained!Merlin - girl!Merlin/Arthur pairing, Gwen/Lancelot, Morgana/Gwaine, Morgause/Leon...
Yes! This is my favorite story type. İf you never liked Merlin character in BBC, and you certainly liked romance between Arthur and Merlin, this is for you. İf you are not liked 'Most powerful sorcerer ever lived' stands up and do notting except serving a prat or each time beating, poisoning, decieving by his enemies, every time saves them in the last minute, and never take any credit or insulting by everyone, this type of stories for you.
My suggestion is to change Merlin's name to Merlyn.Also you must make her trained as well.
But if you make her Trained, automaticly you make her Slight-Dark to. Because when she trained for non!magical ways, she will learn to kill men every way. Poison to swords, throwing knives to archery, also hand to hand combat too. For exaple Krav Maga.
Pro-Active is necessary too. But not to much. As you know in this fictions Merlin, in this case Merlyn make plans, working hard, intelligent, visits druids very often, even creates a sanctuary for her kind. Even she can recruit an army. As you know if you make her Pro-Active, automaticly you make her İntelligent. İf you don't want Pro-Active, you can make İntelligent alone too.
Note: You can't make her completely Dark. Because Merlyn rules with Arthur. And Arthur is not Dark.
2- Fem!Bamf!Pro-Active!İntelligent!Merlin - girl!Merlin/Arthur pairing, Gwen/Lancelot, Morgana/Gwaine
İf you want an İntelligent You can make everything the same as 1. But if you want our Merlyn is not trained this is for you. Make everything the same as 1 but don't do Trained. İf you want it you can make her Slight Dark.
A.2)) Merlin/Morgana Stories
3- Bamf!Pro-Active!İntelligent!Dark!Trained!Merlin - Merlin/Morgana or Merlin/OC, Arthur/Gwen or Arthur/OC
İf you want Merlin/Morgana pairing, also make Merlin Trained, Pro-Active, intelligent, Bamf, Also make merlin join Morgana this is for you. İn this factions Merlin joins Morgana. So there is Dark ( verydark). You can extract Trained. Because this will require flashbacks to Merlin's childhood, or a story and also this will require the reason Merlin turn his back on Arthur. But this is not the real reason. Real reason is if Merlin joins Morgana and they became trained as well; then Merlin becames so superior. They can conquer Camelot in 30 minutes. For example; Morgana studied history of Magic and tried to control her magic in series between 2/3. She couldn't make huge spells until 3x13. She spend 2 years for control. İn the next 5 years only she spend 3 years to study magic. Because she prisoned 2 years in a pit. After that; in Camlan she can threw and kill 15 men with non-verbal magic. And that is after 5 years of study. İn five years her power growed 1000 times. İf Merlin started to study magic like her, in the 2x1; he can defeat Sigan without deceived him.
Also There is a second choice; you can simply make Morgana Once and Future Queen.
4- Bamf!Pro-Active!İntelligent!Slight-Dark!Trained!Merlin - Merlin/Morgana or Merlin/OC, Arthur/Gwen or Arthur/OC
İf you want Merlin/Morgana pairing, and Morgana is not completely evil, then you can make this. İf you want it you can make Morgana good, make her like series 1 or 2. Make a secret relationship. And your story will be liked.
Also you can make Morgana half evil. Put her series 3 or 4. Then there is no problem. But if you do this you have to make Merlin Slight Evil too. Make Morgana hide her relationship with Merlin from Morgause.
Basically there is so many categories. Also I readed all +10k Mergana stories in Fanfiction. I'm waiting new stories. Please share ideas or write them.
