Maris Stella is a Miraculous Ladybug Original Character Alternate Universe, or a MLBOCAU. The Kwamis remain the same, but the humans Holders have all been replaced by OCs.
Originally I was going to use only my own OCs but I borrowed some from friends (and some of their friends joined in.) Oh and a few canon characters from other series ended up in here.
I'll be focusing as my OCs here, and mostly the major ones (being the Holders) though if you have a question for some of the Kwamis, that might be fun too. I'll probably just be answering questions from friends and not interacting much with other posts- maybe.

@ everyone (mostly the Holders, even though it can also apply to some of the Akuma victims I guess)
Ever read fanfiction about yourself? And those who do, is there anything you especially love or hate to see in them?
Naota: I once almost read a fanfic about me and Tenechat, just out of curiosity, but it got so much of our civilian lives completely wrong.
Fletcher: Like what?
Naota: Your name was Arnold and you were a football star, and I was a transfer student named Kasumi who loved figure skating and missed the ice rink. And okay, figure skating does sound fun I have nothing against it, I'd love to go ice skating more often. But it was so weird seeing this completely different version of us on the page.
Fletcher: What's the ship name?
Naota: Arumi.
Naota: Anyway, Arumi hates Arnold because she thinks he's a flirt because girls are constantly all over him, as if any of that was his fault! But Arnold totally loves Kasumi because she's super athletic and takes up roller skating. Meanwhile Kasumi has a huge crush on Tenechat while he has no interest in Maris.
Hikaru: Oh hey, I think I remember reading about this one on TVTropes. That's the one where all the secondary Holders got Akumatized and ou and Tenechat had to fight us all.
Naota: And my Lucky Charm ended up being a ball of yarn.
Hikaru: What were the Akumatized names we had again? I think I was Fenraged or something. Justin was Chaos Kong. Sylvana was Baphomet- they got really lucky with that one.
Naota: Oh, Sylvana was an autistic transbian named Elliot who loved motorcycles. Guess they were extrapolating from the jetpack thing. And you were an influencer named Crystal and you and Elliot had a thing going on. Oh and King Sting was given a sympathetic motive, he was helping because Riodinidae agreed to make his parents fall back in love, and he was upset because his little brother was taking the divorce hard.
Yukari: What was my civilian self like?
Naota: Your name was Shiori, your little sister Shizune- who turned out to be Chanticleer, by the way, was relentlessly bullied in school for being shy. You were planning to help your sister come out of her shell and punish those bullies with a gate worse than death. Paravani was her boyfriend John.
I remember when you tried to use timetravel to fix as many thing as you could, one of your scrapped ideas involved permanently replacing Riodinidae with Madame Butterfly. It didn't work because she was just too different from Yukari.
Have you ever considered just keeping the Butterfly yourself to create a villanious persona, so you could orchestrate everything perfectly? Did that fail too, or would that be just too much to keep track of?
I know it doesn't matter much anymore since Naota solved the curse and we know who has the Butterfly now - I just got curious if you ever flirted with the option.
Yuu: Sometimes my luck is unpredictable... I don't want to push it by making enemies out of my friends, even if I'm pretending
*pops back in time, anywhere between Chapter 78 and 86*
Hey Yukari, after becoming the Butterfly Holder, have you ever wondered how well it goes with your name? Do you think it was fate, or just a funny coincidence - or maybe your parents liked that name because of the Butterfly?
(Shit thought I answered this)
Yukari: I think it's probably just a coinci-
Yuu: There is no such thing as coincidence, only Hitsuzen. And nominative determinism.
Yukari: My cousin's joking. It was just a coincidence. My name happens to be a color and all objects have colors. The Butterfly happens to be purple, yes, but I also own an orange sweater. And a pink bath towel. And a red scarf. And a blue dress. I've also got a purple T-shirt and purple hairbrush. Some of the stuff I own is purple, some of it is not.
Yuu: yeah but none of those random objects have the same major significance as the Miraculous defining your life.
Any thoughts on your recent battle against the Knight? Or how you think you'll do against Ruthless?
Shichibug: The Knight was a powerful foe, but we still overcame them. No matter what happens with Ruthless, I am certain we can do the same.
Dawnbringer: The Knight took a lot out of me. I'm worried about heading back into battle so soon. But we'll manage.
Worst case scenario, we still have multiple nuclear options to go through. Additional Miraculous. Powerful Sentimonsters we can create through Kwami swapping. In a worst case scenario I have multiple backup options.
what are the aus you were asked to infodump about. i want to know. please give me your information.

Okay so. Leaf and Scar are originally from a neon cyber capitalism future dystopia. And in the main timeline (that's Leaf story :v) they go into a video game which is very in the other direction. And that's all fun. And they appear in @elakha-house-cube because all my characters do, that's what it's for.
But I've been rotating these disaster girls in my mind so much. So when @kiraheartilly36 wanted some crossover characters for her story I threw them into the pile. And that was fun, we get to watch Leaf suffer from social anxiety and Scar get super protective, basically the opposite of how it is in the main timeline :v
And uhhhh more timelines? Definitely more timelines. I don't remember which ones have anything posted. The other day I came up with the idea of putting them in a deckbuilding roguelite which I will probably not finish and possibly not even start but I am rotating it in my mind
@instardustandspacetime
Okay so I have a Miracuolous Ladybug AU in which all the main human characters are replaced by OCs
Leaf and Scar are not in this story
But it is related to the grand picture of things
The plot of Miraculous revolves around magic jewels that grant their wielders special powers. The villain wants the Ladybug and Black Cat Miraculous because together they can grant a wish.
In one chapter, I wrote all the Heroes' Miraculous getting destroyed. So in order to restore them, one of the characters had to visit another dimension, and meet Yuko Ichihara The Space-Time Witch from the CLAMP multiverse. She grants wishes, for a price.
So this character, Yuu Akimoto, ended up working for her in order to have his wish granted. Along the way he met several other customers, included Leaf.
She had severe social anxiety and wanted a way to better handle social situations. So Yuko gave her a magic bracelet that let her travel back in time whenever she said something awkward in a conversation.
She used this a lot. Several times in one conversation. This eventually led to her accumulating so much stress and despair that she locked herself in a nightmare coma and had to fight a giant snake.
Since it was a dream she managed to unlock her hidden strength and began manipulating the world around her by using video game attacks (a direct reference to Leaf Story) and eventually beat the giant snake that was trying to eat her. She even won a spear in the process.
The spear became its own problem. Since it was a video game prize, it operated on video game logic. Whenever she became too stressed, her body thought it was time for a fight, and the spear popped up, ready for battle.
Even though lived in a seemingly mundane setting where people are not supposed to carry weapons around.
She was forced to go back to Yuko for help again.
Yuko took this spear from her.
I then, just for fun, made another story where Leaf and Scar are attending high school with the Symphonia cast- and the Miraculous are around. Leaf gets the Ladybug and Scarlex gets the Black Cat.
And then they get their asses kicked and the Miraculous stolen.
Yuko Ichihara shows up and rewinds time. Then, using a magical egg she upgrades their powers. Using some Sylph shoes from Witch Hat Atelier, Leaf and Scar gain the ability to fly. She also replaces their weapons with ones better suited for them. Leaf gets the spear that her other world counterpart got from the snake. Scarlet gets the Devilsknife from Deltarune.
Hey Bakeneko, let's say you were forced to swap Miraculous with your partner. What name and costume you'd pick as a Ladybug Holder?
[Note: Hoping to do a Dreamline thing again, but I want to do other things first, so no rush]
The seven spotted ladybug is said to be especially good luck. I think I would like something related to that.
I think I would like to go with "Shichi"bug even though the Shi is considered bad luck by some. I would like to reclaim it to remind my enemies to be fearful.
As for outfit. Purrhapds a little asymmetry for fun? Pure red tube top. And arm warmers- the left should be red with black sports and should go down to my wrist. The right arm warmer can be pure black, and stretch into a fingerless glove. Then I'd take a red skirt with ladybug spots on it.
*pops into the Marisverse just before the Miraculous Tenechat could go off after the Anti-Eden fight*
Wow, that was crazy! Maris, Tenechat, how do you feel, having learned about all the different worlds out there? Is there one you'd really like to visit if you had the chance?
Maris: Well, we've known for some time that the other worlds are real
Tenechat: Actually learning how they're made was kind of wild
Maris: As for where I'd like to visit, well, technically it's not a single world but I would like to visit- wait if I tell you too much about the worlds I like, Tenechat might figure out who I am.
Tenechat: Pretty sure I'll forget anyway, thanks to my Miraculous Tenechat. Besides I think you just gave away that there's something mutiversal at play here. And knowing you I can lean towards JRPGs.
Maris: Well, okay, fine you got me. I was going to say Kingdom Hearts. Also maybe a few Final Fantasy worlds. The Boiling Isles. Stars Hollow. Star VS. Remnant. Maybe a few anime worlds like Naruto or Bleach.
Tenechat: Wait, Naota? Is that
Maris: Yes, Fletcher, it's me. Now please hurry with the Miraculous Tenechat before I die of regrets.
Tenechat: Oh, before I do, guess I should answer. Huh? I dunno, never really thought about multiversal dimension travel.
