Daily My Friend Pedro AUs doodles as long as it lasts lol
@daily-pedro-aus
Blog where, from June 20th, I will post (or at least try) a doodle of one of my MFP AUs, by alphabetical order. So far, I got 103 of them wooo (doodled: 82/103) Currently in art block
I feel like starting with a masterpost is important-
Howdy! My name is Cookie, you may have stumbled upon my art blog @cookinary or my mess blog @spacecatsaremadeofdarkmatter
I've been obsessed with the game My Friend Pedro ever since it came out back in 2019, and I've created a LOT of AUs for it!
Like, A LOT
And I intend to keep going! But because making that many refs is time consuming and I don't have the motivation for it, I'm gonna doodle each of my AUs daily (or at least try to) by alphabetical order
How do I intend to keep track? Well, with an Excel sheet of course.
Each AU doodle will have a description under a read more which will be copy pasted straight from my writing app (no beta babyyyyy)
And if you want a brief description for each AU because you can't wait (you eager beaver), allow me to redirect you to this beautiful masterdoc in dire need of an update
I also have a playlist of theme songs for my AUs if you're curious and in need of some music!
Anwyay, please remember to reblog, and enjoy!
And also, the ask box is always open, if you have any questions, feel free to ask!
Haha, glad you ask because huh
I actually have 3 new AUs total
Haha
Woops
I wanted to introduce them with doodles but I'm very slowly getting out of an art block rn so this will have to wait
I can share my notes on them tho!
Shaman King AU (Nickname: Shamy)
Takes place in the world of Shaman King
If you're unfamiliar with it, basically ghosts are real, and people called shamans can see and interact with them, notably by fusing with ghosts (like getting willingly possessed) to be able to use the ghost's knowledge and abilities
Shamy is a shaman tho he didn't know at first
He didn't understand why he could see the ghosts of the people his family and him killed
After the Incident, he ran away and ran into Scope who calmed him down
Scope (he's the equivalent of the banana) is the ghost of an elite soldier and sniper
He didn't die in war but was instead betrayed and killed by someone he trusted
Shamy and Scope quickly bonded and decided to stay together
Soon after, the two met another shaman who explained them what Shamy was and the power he had of fusing with a ghost
Scope agrees to fuse and fight with Shamy, on the condition that Shamy kills the person who betrayed him at some point
Shamy agrees and the two train together for several years
One day, Shamy hears about his family going too far and decides to stop them for good with Scope's help
The rest of the story goes pretty normally, except Shamy does not erase his memories, but instead leaves Scope with full control over his body (instead of the control being shared between the two) when it comes to killing Denny and Ophelia
Scope being an elite sniper/soldier, fusing with him allows Shamy to become a lot more efficient in a fight, with his weapon of choice being a sniper rifle
Code Lyoko AU
I don't have notes on this one because I haven't thought too much about it, but it's basically Code Lyoko but with the siblings as Lyoko warriors
Because Code Lyoko is fucking awesome okay
Hemokinesis AU (Nickname: Mogie)
AU where Pedro can control blood (blood manipulation / hemokinesis) and it's his main fighting strat
He can change the viscosity of blood, harden it and make it sharp, stop its flow, change its flow, etc.
He can control the blood in other beings' bodies, but there needs to be at least a little cut for him to be able to do so, which is why his main strat is to cut his opponent (even a paper cut will suffice) and then drain them of their blood or just stop the flow of blood in their body entirely
He voluntarily keeps his clothes drenched and soaked in blood from past missions so he always has something to use close at hand (he can only make a small knife using his own blood before it gets too dangerous)
Not too much on this one again because I only came up with it last week so I don't have much in terms of worldbuilding
I WILL draw these bois when I can tho, I intend to finish what I started no matter how long it takes!
So thank you so much for sticking around, it means a lot to me ^^
Theme song: Steam Gardens - from the Super Mario Odyssey OST
I don't really have a clear idea for this one!
But it's basically My Friend Pedro shoved into the world of Super Mario Odyssey, the banana is instead a bonneter that gives Pedro the same power of capture like Cappy does with Mario
And the story happens at the same time as SMO's story so the two boys often meet up on their journey
Playing an instrument releases energy, different instruments and different genres release different energy
Riff uses an electric guitar as his main weapon because of its versatility
He can fire energy bullets but also unleash an energy pulse that covers a large area around him, good for crowd control
His guitar is reinforced with metal parts (I FORGOT TO DRAW THEM) to make it more durable
Ophelia uses a keytar
During the fight against her, she manages to destroy Riff's guitar, rendering him harmless
Or so she thought
Riff pulls out a microphone and starts singing
Riff is a very recent AU as well!
His suit is basically like an armor with a bunch of speakers integrated; I imagine there are 2 speakers on his chest, one on his stomach, one on each arm, one on each thigh, a big one on his back, and one in his mask in front of his mouth that he activates when he starts to sing (the ones in the cat ears are functional but very weak, and only here for decoration)
Also him singing was very off-putting to Ophelia because Riff is selective mute (to an extreme degree) and never said anything this whole time, so hearing him suddenly belting out Don't Stop Me Now with the voice of an angel was, uh. Something
ALMOST FORGOT but here is a doodle of him out of the suit!
Okay, my job has been killing me lately and leaving me too tired and unmotivated to draw anything regarding this blog and also art block isn't helping so now, this is more of a whenever-i-feel-like-it-pedro-aus blog
I do not have proper notes for this one so I'll sum it up real quick
The AU takes place 3000 years into the future
Humanity has colonized the skies of Venus and thanks to first contacts with several alien species, have been able to explore the universe
Ophelia is the Spacenet Dictator, controlling the Internet of the entire galaxy
Pedro was so fascinated by space that he often ended up staring at the night sky for hours, thus earning him the nickname Spacey
The story behind his eyes is that Spacey wanted to get away from the fam and be an astronaut
Except cyborgs are prohibited from being astronauts because racism I guess, I haven't touched the worldbuilding of this in a while
Mitch could not afford to lose such a valuable attack dog, so he tasked Ophelia to "accidentally" hurt Spacey in a way that would ensure that he'd be fitted with a cyber implant and thus be legally considered a cyborg and unable to go to space
Ophelia went for the bullseye lol
Spacey was very pissed about that and never forgave her for it
Spacey found Gold the space cat (artificial alien species of cats, manufactured because aliens found cats cool and wanted a version of them able to survive in space) as a stray and secretly adopted him
The Incident and the rest of the story happened as usual
Post-game don't worry, the laws prohibiting cyborgs to go to space gets revoked and space boi gets himself a spaceship, he happy uwu
Oh BOY this is the AU with the most posts and arts, be prepared. First one here, second one here, third one here, fourth one here, fifth one here, sixth one here, seventh one here, eigth one here, ninth one here, tenth one here, eleventh one here, twelth one here, thirteenth one here, fourteenth one here, fifteenth one here, sixteenth one here, seventeenth one here, eighteenth one here, nineteenth one here, twentieth one here, and twenty-first one here!
And shoutout to blunky's Spacey fanart, the very first fanart I've ever received aaaaaaaaaa
Same principle in terms of environment, floating islands everywhere
To move around, people are either born with wings or with the ability to use magic to levitate/fly around, and rarely some are born with both wings and magic
This boy is originally not a fighter! And neither is the fam, they're just a normal family that is NOT versed into crimes
Mitch runs his restaurant normally, he doesn't use it as a front for anything
I realize this sounds sarcastic but please trust me on this one
Denny is struggling to find a job he likes but he's trying!
Pedro is a cook in his father's restaurant
Ophelia is an aspiring website programmer
The Incident consists of Pedro realizing that they live in a simulation
( - It's a bit like The Matrix? It's not directly inspired by it, though)
It causes the simulation to glitch out SEVERELY as an attempt to protect itself
The simulation turns Mitch, Denny and Ophelia into their evil versions to try and stop Pedro
Which causes them to become unstable and permanently glitching (visually)
Pedro manages to escape and hide from his now fucked-up family
He spends the next 5 years trying to understand what happened and the truth behind the Simulation
His research and experiments with the code cause him to become slightly glitchy as well
All the while, the Simulation launches regular attacks on him to try to get him to stop
After a particularly violent one, Pedro decides to modify *his own code* to turn himself into a fighter so he has a better chance to defend himself
Something somewhere in the process fucks up, which causes Pedro to effectively become an incredibly-skilled fighter, but it also erases most of his memories and makes him even more glitchier
The Simulation sees this as an opportunity to get rid of the entire glitchy family and manifests itself as the banana
From there, the story follows more or less the game story, with the banana fabricating whatever story to get Pedro to kill everyone
Though along the way, Pedro has brief flashes of lucidity but they never last long enough to allow him to stop his rampage
When he reaches Ophelia, it's revealed that she's also been having flashes of lucidity ever since the Incident
Hers were longer, allowing her to try and fight back the Simulation whenever she could
Just after Pedro deals the fatal blow, she gets a last moment of lucidity where she explains everything before dying
The banana reveals itself as the Simulation and tries to take down Pedro but you all know how that ends
As the Simulation itself is killed, a failsafe is activated, turning Pedro into the heart of the Simulation, which means he has full control over it now
He's a lot more stable and a lot less glitchy, but he relapses if he gets stressed out a lot
After a lot of struggle, Pedro manages to bring Ophelia back in a glitch as all Hell body, but she doesn't mind, she's just happy to be back
Silvatus are a species I made up a WHIIIIIIIIILE ago back when I was still in middle school lol
Silvatus are notorious for their shapeshifting abilities: they can slightly alter their body, but most of all they can turn into one or more animals and have distinctive traits reminding of said animals
They're also great magic users
Silver's animal is the Canada Lynx and his distinctive trait are the ear tufts lynxes have
And he's a fire magician
This boi has been featured in this art, this art here, and this art right here, and he also appears on my commissions sheet lol
I really need to properly introduce silvatus lmao, I've been procrastinating on this since 2015
