Been craving an Encanto RP as of late, but I have two separate ideas and haven’t been able to decide between the two. That said, I’ve decided to leave it up to a vote to see which storyline is more likely to survive.
And so without further ado, here they are!
P.S.: Both ideas can be set before or after the events of the film, whichever people would prefer.

Before she married Pedro Madrigal, Alma (Abuela) was not the only woman in their village vying for Pedro's attention. Unfortunately for the Madrigals, the woman Pedro rejected in favor of Alma turned to witchcraft out of jealousy, betraying the village by offering her services to the guerrilla forces that would ultimately destroy it. In the years that followed, the witch rose through the ranks and even built her own familia of sorts, training her children and grandchildren in the dark arts, all in the hopes that someday she could find the Madrigals and take her revenge.
In the present day, the witch discovers where the Madrigals have been hiding this whole time, and she and her allies set out to wipe out the Madrigals once and for all: the witch and her clan to seek revenge against Abuela, and the guerrillas to try to conscript the Madrigals as their own personal weapons. They get more than they bargained for at first, because neither the witch nor the guerrillas were initially aware of the Madrigal family's gifts, but the witch and her familia use their own magic to fight back, sparking a clash that threatens the village on a whole new level.

One Camilo-centric prequel variation of this would have an 10-11 year old Camilo, whose shapeshifting gift has been labeled "useless" due to having seemingly no conventional use in community life, witnessing as Pepa and Antonio (either a newborn baby or still unborn at this point) are kidnapped by the witch's allies, and tagging along in secret to try to save them. While doing so, Camilo witnesses firsthand the suffering of the victims of the witch's cruelty, and learns to use his gift to help ease their suffering in different ways. (Essentially, this would serve to explain why Camilo regularly uses his gift to make people laugh/smile in the movie.)
As the title suggests, this would be a crossover between Encanto and Kingdom Hearts, although no spoilers are needed for the latter. The plot here can be easily adapted to either before or after the events of the film. (If after, Mirabel may even potentially have a Keyblade.)
The storyline here would boil down to the main villain (maybe or maybe not Xehanort) learning about the Madrigal family's gifts and deciding to investigate how the Miracle that fuels their powers could be harnessed in service to the darkness. To that end, the villain starts systematically kidnapping gifted Madrigal family members and experimenting on them, save only for a few who either avoid capture or were simply left alone**. Sora and his allies would arrive in the Encanto world at around this time, and team up with the remaining family members to rescue the rest of the family and put a stop to the main villain's plans.
**In the original draft of this storyline, the villain primarily focused on the gifted Madrigal family members. Those who had no apparent gifts (Mirabel, Felix, Agustin, and possibly Abuela) were left alone because they didn't have any of the power that the villain wanted. Julieta was also spared because her gift was so passive that the villain didn't see her as a threat.
