I am a 15 year old writer and was wondering how can i make this more original?

Ten thousand years ago, many light years away from Earth. A planet named Dragon World with many similarities to Earth such as the life of humans and bazaar creatures like trolls, giants, dragons, snakes, and huge lizards. For thousands of years the people and nations of Dragon World lived in peace and prosperity, until a dark, immortal, evil human named Theris started to destroy homes and villages. Now, Theris and his followers are destroying all the nations that are left on Dragon World. Their main goal is to unleash the three legendary dragons who are the most powerful dragons in that had ever existed, in order to destroy the last great city that stands. For now, the only one who can open the tomb and release the dragons is the savior. One last hope belongs to a seventeen year old boy named Max Leoguard who is unaware that he’s the savior. Max is the only one that has the power of killing Theris and his followers, in addition, to releasing the three legendary dragons. Now Max and his friends must go on an epic journey in order to defeat the two followers and Theris, in order to save Dragon World from certain destruction.

I know this summary might sound like a story that has been overdone, but once you read it is alot different. I am really bad at summarys.

I have not read Eragon, but have read the summary and can insure you this is way different. There are a lot of deep plots that go on within the story itself

1) Dragon World? Really? You couldn’t just make up a weird, fantasy name?

2) It does sound like Eragon, but I won’t judge. As long as this Max guy doesn’t get his own dragon or be some type of dragon rider. Dragon-slaying is alright, I guess.

3) By your summary, your story sounds like every other fantasy. Evil (immortal) guy taking over the world? Check. On a planet other than Earth? Check. With mythical creatures? Check. With some kid being the one to save them all. Check.

I suggest changing things from the list above which are basically the norm for a lot of fantasies. You’ve really got to think long and hard on it. How about making the evil guy mortal? How about making him a WOMAN. That’s never been done before. Change the name of the planet. Take out dragons and do a less-known creature like a Chimera or something. How about making the kid younger. These characters are always older teenagers. Why can’t someone do the struggles of a KID trying to save the world? He doesn’t have to act immature unless you make it so that he will be.It might be easier for you to relate to someone who is at an age that you’ve already experienced, instead of one you have yet to be. My character is 12 and is very protected and spoiled; he’s quiet and intelligent and likes to think about what’s going on. But of course, he’s got young people flaws. Make sure you have a good balance.

Like I said, think long and hard on it…You’ll be surprised at how much originality you can come up with. Good luck!
