About / FAQ
Hi! I don't know if you already know me from one of my other blogs, but hi, welcome to the party!
My name is Maddie/M (they/them). Iâve been a descendants fan since the first movie and after spending several years obsessing over it with my best friend, building headcanons and creating ocs and brainstorming fic ideas, I finally decided to brave the bigger world of the descendants fandom! Iâm also a long time oc blog where Iâve been posting about descendants ocs for several years now, so while this is not an oc exclusive blog, I will be posting about my ocs here as well as about the general descendants universe!
Fair warning, it been a while since I read the books, I love the movies but they donât always make the most sense, and I donât consider Rise Of Red as canon. I mostly stick to relative-canon and just expand upon what weâre given, but there are a few things that I throw out and other headcanons that I just generally have that will show up throughout everything I come up with! You totally donât have to agree with my ideas and Iâm always happy to chat or hear about other perspectives, but I know that I stray from canon and Iâm not going to stop doing that!
This blog will be run in equal parts by queue and by just posting things when I feel like it â if I can think of a fun queue tag to make it easier to tell those apart then I will tag accordingly, but so far no such tag exists so please be patient if Iâm not immediately responsive, I might not be online, I might have gotten busy, or I might have just totally spaced out, please give me a couple of hours to a day before thinking Iâm ignoring you!
Here some important things!
OCs
I have a desktop masterlist right here, and then mobile friendly ones here ( a-k ) and here ( l-z )! Unless otherwise stated, my ocs all exist within their own bubbles and donât overlap unless I pull one of them into another verse just as background/filler characters!
Fancast List
I stick to the canon casting from the first 3 movies but for book characters and parents, Iâve spent a long time creating my perfect fancast. My fancy desktop cast list is here, my mobile friendly cast lists are here (the kids) and here (the adults)!
Crossovers etc
I can be a bit iffy about descendants crossovers just because of my extensive non-canon worldbuilding, but Iâm always happy to chat! Please donât use my ocs without permission (there are some that Iâm cool with being thrown in as background characters for fic filler and others that Iâm really not), Iâm open to general crossover chats, and Iâm tentatively open to rp ( I have an rp blog as well but it isnât descendants exclusive/specific )
Can I find you anywhere else?
Yes! Within Tumblr I have my main blog ( @randomestfandoms ), my oc blog ( @randomestfandoms-ocs ), and my rp blog ( @randomestroleplays) where I also sometimes talk about descendants stuff! Outside of Tumblr, Iâm also on ffnet, ao3, Wattpad, and YouTube, all under the name randomestfandoms
Key tags
I do have a full navigation page here, but as a quick overview! I tag all of my ocs as oc: [ first name ] and canon characters as canon: [ first name ] ( exceptions being Davy Jones, Evil Queen, Jane darling, and characters who only have one name or a title and name, in which case I just use that name )
I also have tags for edits ( and specific tags for art, gifs, graphics, videos, and writing ), fancasting, headcanons, ocs, personal, shipping, world building ( and auradon & isle specific world building ), and miscellaneous nonsense!
( yes they are all unnecessarily long but they are also all descendants quotes so Iâm okay with that )
Fanon
So Iâm not going to shit on Fanon, sometimes I absolutely love fanon and I love how passionate the descendants fandom in particular is, especially over characters that have barely any content! However I spent years developing my personal descendants hcs and ocs in a void with my friend before I even started talking about my descendants ocs on that blog, and even longer before I even tried getting involved in the bigger fandom, and this is part of why! I fully support everyoneâs rights to their own headcanons and I donât necessarily think that mine are objectively superior, but Iâm also not going to change my own take on this universe! Like I said with canon, Iâm always happy to chat and hear about other perspectives and ideas, but Iâm going to keep doing my own thing!
I also pull from other Disney franchises that arenât part of the descendants universe, and I veer on and off from which live action movies I adopt into my canon!
Itâs been a long time since Iâve made an about/faq type of post so if you think I should include anything else, please lmk!
