Now for the F.A.Q!
Q: What is In Her Shadow?
A: In Her Shadow is a bad ending next generation AU where Marinette lost everything. The truth about Gabriel came out, her friends as well the people of Paris felt betrayed by Ladybug, and Marinette was mysteriously killed. Years later, Elodie discovers a pair of earrings in her new house, kickstarting a new age of heroes and akumas.
Q: Who is Elodie?
A: Elodie is the next Ladybug and while she isn’t related to Marinette or any of the akuma classes, her classmates are kids/relatives to Miraculous characters.
Q: What is Elodie like?
A: Elodie is very similar to Marinette in Season 1…except worse. A bullied, friendless social pariah with low self esteem and easily panics (being the new hero of Paris does not help…AT ALL).
Q: Will any of the Miraculous Ladybug characters show up?
A: Yes! Elodie will come into contact with many familiar Miraculous Ladybug characters.
Q: How much of canon will be canon here?
A: For the most part, yes. Though with some changes to characters and Season 6.
Q: How many seasons are planned?
A: 4 for now plus some specials.
Q: Any crossovers?
A: In Her Shadow is apart of a bigger universe…a Spotsverse you could say (get it? Spots?) with @thefcguy’s @miraculous-thenextspots @natedogx15’s Out of Their Element AU, @whiterosequeen23 @miraculousbrokenmirror, and @vigilante-bardock @liars-legacy-au so don’t be surprised if you see crossover posts with these two.
Q: Are we able to send asks?
A: YES!! Send me asks, send me fanart, let me know your thoughts!
