dunno if my old “phighting but everywhere is x faction” ideas are remembered but ive been thinking about thieves’ den’s for a while…
ok so. everywhere is rainforest. duh. thats obv. HOWEVER its sliiiightly different depending on what region would have been there- blackrock’s still has plenty of mountains, lost temple has no major rivers/lakes and playground’s forests were so thick that soil accumulated ontop so theres a forest growing on the forest. also all of the factions are just different darkage-likes ifyk what i mean (i dont fully so). also i added some more cause im soooooo cool.
so (these are just the major ones):
Thieves’ Den: Darkage
Vulcanrock (Blackrock): Lightage, Korblox
Lost Temple (still called lost temple): Redleaf, Seercrys (TCOTTE) (crys pronounced like in crystal because its supposed to be short for that)
Skyground (Playground): Splintered Bark, tribe of the Pine Isles (Astral Isles), the Crater Hunters
everyone is probably? where you’d expect them to be. vines shuri and sling still in darkage, subs hyper and whstev being in korblox uhhhhhh. yeyeyey. EXCEPT for a few
Boombox is in Splintered Skies, but Skateboard was taken into Pine Isles. Coil is in Crater Hunters.
Rocket is in Pine Isles aswell
Zuka joined Lightage after leaving Korblox and so did Medkit
also
b*ografts dont exist
Vulcanrock and Lost Temple share a major mountain range
“the crater” is just. a massive fucking depression in the ground. and it takes up some of both Skyground AND Thieves’ Den. it’s not uncommon to hea Darkagers complain about the Crater Hunters violating borders (as if they care)
also also some of the tribes are/were led by deities (besides splintered and windforce ofc)!
Korblox WAS led by Ice Dagger
both Lightage and Pine Isles were founded by Ghostwalker, though he only still runs the latter
^Illumina took Lightage
Firebrand leads a smaller group in Vulcanrock called Magma Ashes and holds sympathy for Redleaf
Venomshank holds sympathy for the Crater Hunters
Darkheart’s got nothing.
but ushfhfhfhfhth yeya
bye

oh I love the worldbuilding here... this is really neat ^^
Also I'm wheezing at the "Darkheart's got nothing" part 😭
hiya there! It's mod Sisyphus, back at it again! Now, you may be wondering where we've been, and all we have to say is We Got Distracted LOL. We have been VERY busy lately, and have been occupied with life stuff and other projects (such as a phighting self insert fic, or our Cruel King Phightsekai fic or... we have a lot of phighting fics). Along with that, we're still trying to get our footing after finally getting out of school.
We will (hopefully) (maybe) try and become more active on this blog when we can. Who knows, honestly, we probably will get distracted again. That's it for this little update, we hope you all have a great day/night!

Where it has Other People's Phighting OCs! Ofc I ask them or if they ask me if they can join the AU
It's a Comic Project I'm working on so basically:
Subspace learns how to turn people into Biografts without Killing them
And then decides. Yeah lemme take over Blackrock with this power
And it caused a Apocalyptic Collapse On some of the other Factions due to Inphernals getting taken left and right and being turned and reprogrammed/brainwashed Into Biografts and etc, some including the Phighters
The deities Are Captured somehow ( still thinking about that one. ) and their power is used to Power the Huge Facility Subspace now owns and power other stuff
The OCs ( and maybe SOME of the Phighters )part is basically waking up in facility with cuffs. The goal? Get out and beat up Subspace.
The Cuffs are special and Don't allow Inphernals to summon their gear
Ok I think I'm cringe okay I'm sorry bye 😔
... I would love to see Heartsong (one of my OCs) be subjected to this (/silly)
More emanator au! What are each deities’ emanators like?
Firebrand, Windforce, and Illumina’s emanators are similar. All are high ranking followers of each deity.
Windforce’s emanators are generals in her army who’ve proved themselves in combat. They grow significantly stronger and faster and also lighter. They start randomly sprouting feathers as well.
Firebrand’s emanators are usually his advisors, hand picked by the king himself. They become nearly immune to fire and handle heat far, far better than any other inpheral.
Illumina’s emanators are his elite and most loyal followers. They start looking like him, glowing and ethereal (think of how follower sword & katana look)
Darkheart’s emanators are… strange. As expected from the deity of chaos. There’s really no rhyme or reason to their picking, just who amuses them or is most useful to them at the time. Their emanators’ eyes start glowing and their smile widening to an almost unnatural degree, becoming uncanny in general. Zuka used to be one of their emanators, and Darkheart still offers him a spot as one of them if he desires.
Venomshank’s emanators are usually various medical professionals. If they’ve done something particularly impressive in his eyes or are looking for a miracle, he’ll approach them with an offer. His emanators have nearly impenetrable immune system and are just very healthy in general. If Medkit hadn’t joined the Chruch of the TRUE EYE, Venomshank would’ve tried to make him one of his emanators (and let him be a teacher!! They are important!!!)
Ghostwalker has two types of emanators and both make things more efficient. The first group gathers souls that he either can’t get himself (either because he can’t be in there area right at that moment or because he couldn’t reach them for some reason) and the amounts of these emanators varies based on region population (Playground has the of these at 5). The second group act as hitmen for inpherals who try and cheat death. Each region has 1 of these emanators (ooo foreshadowing ooo). All of Ghostwalker’s emanators are destined to have very peaceful and painless deaths, as long as they do their jobs properly of course.
Icedagger doesn’t have any active emanators right now, though they usually care deeply about the environment and/or other inpherals. They would become resistant to the cold and have a naturally lower body temperature and are always covered in a little bit of frost.
(Phew that was long! Hope y’all enjoyed night night!)
AU idea that I totally didn’t steal from Honkai Star Rail! Emanators of the SFOTH deities! (sorry if this is worded weirdly i am very tired lol)
Deities can lend small portions of their powers to mortals for various reasons and have them work directly under them. Usually an emanator is chosen based on their skills, abilities, and if they catch the deity’s attention and how an emanator looks/behaves changes depending on who they work for but they’re usually extremely trusted by their patron (ex: Firebrand with Umbrella). Windforce & Firebrand have the most emanators and Ghostwalker & Icedagger have the least.
Oh this is neat, I like this (/gen)
I used to play HSR but then stopped bc my interest kinda just died off... it's still cool to see people come up with this stuff ^^
I do know someone who is interested in HSR, though (hi @meowmory lol)
Hyperlaser stands up, been his first time in back of the bar rather than in front, new job's going decent, plucking out the cap to one of the bottles, he pours it into the dog thing's drink.
These bar-goers are quite strange to her, but they're paying all the same so, not really their problem.
"Ya know, Yorick, wasn't really fixin' to end up here.. But the booze is good, so can't really complain."
The dog says somberly, talking to the skeleton.
"I agree with ye, lass. Wish we could get back with the rest of the safehouse crew.."
The skeleton says, longingly, as if it failed to protect someone.
"Cheers."
They clank their glasses together as the doors of the bar clank open from someone kicking the door down.
A trench coat wearing figure with a fedora, can't see their face from how dark the shadow of the fedora is.
The dog grabs its gun, quickly swirling around and pointing it at the figure.
"Woah now, how large of a damage bill are you looking to pay?"
Hyper says jokingly.
"However much gets this fucking disgrace out of my fur."
The figure steps back at the accusation, not scarred but ready.
"Oh so ya hate me just for makin' a movie?"
"I hate ya for a lot more than yer shitty film-makin'."
The figure coated in darkness draws its blade.
"Cahmon, new part just dropped!-"
The second the words fly out of its mouth, a bullet flies into its skull.
(Wow, bit of a longer one innit? Kinda went more cinamatic, but im a really impatient girl so its only 2000 words long)
SEND WORD-Do You Really Think You Carry The Heights Of Your Society? Do You Really Think You Aren't Just Another Piece, One Brick In The Wall That Could Be Broken At Any Moment.
Well, Congrats. Subspace Is Dead.
(Might expand on this au in the future, maybe with Killer Kyle? I have an idea for him, anyway, Enjoy the fic!)
SEND WORD - I HAVE BEEN RESSURECTED. PWNED BY 14:00 MENTIONED. WE NEED TO PLAY THE UPDATE SO BAD.
Cant read the fic right now but I WILL reblog with a Live Crow Reaction later and. Post an update on our own shenanigans :3

Currently the au I'm already working on is still in the works because life has been crazy (it hasn't i just graduated hs and getting ready for adult life cus I'm an adult now)
But I've been thinking of a new au. Still working on a title for it but its peak let me cook
OK SO you know how Sword is like related to the gods but doesn't have shit himself? Weird right? Also whats the deal with that Linked Sword bitch?
What if two birds were killed with one stone?
Deep in the Banlands, in a cell not even Banhammer knows, is what is known by the SFOTH only as "The Cloud."
This isn't an inphernal. Not at all close to it. It's the physical manifestation of all godly essence and divine anger that once belonged to the Linked Sword. This thing, malicious and powerful, is held by magical chains. None of the SFOTH or their descendants are allowed to see it, and no one outside of the SFOTH are allowed to know it even exists.
Because of this separation, Sword, the inphernal we know today, is allowed to exist and be under the care of Venomshank. The SFOTH have all taken care of previous incarnations of Sword, but right now it's Venomshank because the majority agree he is trusted to keep him from discovering the Mist. He's done this well so far, if a bit overbearingly. The only people to disagree with this stance are Windforce and Darkheart.
But with Sword off to find Medkit, especially with the company of Darkheart, this poses a problem. Venomshank has no idea where Sword is and Darkheart may manipulate Sword into detouring and finding the Mist.
This is a problem because Darkheart thinks that the SFOTH should give Linked Sword a second chance, it's been generations! They were close once! We have no idea if he's still as wrathful as he was! Also Darkheart misses the old days of them all being a family (though, he'd never admit that.)
So that's the situation. Sword is one part of a whole, with the other part hidden from everyone yet dangerously close to them being reunited.
- ourple, sorry for the yap!
oughh eldritch(ish) horror my beloved...
I like how you gave it multiple names, it's very like..Urban legend-esque.
I enjoy how you put in CONSEQUENCES to ditf, because otherwise it's Sword just risking her own life for a whole lot of smoke and mirrors.
Fanficy thoughts under the cut
I'm just imaging a scene of this thing(derogatory) showing sword all of her previous lives, promising that whatever happened in those, that godhood would be twice as fulfilling, if not more! And Sword refuses.
hi it's me shingle shongle and a kind request to update how many AUs you have in the inbox. I have Tumblr on another tab and I'm looking between this and that constantly and some of them are botched! Google translate sucks I know.
I think I just uh tell you ok <3
Btw Japanese is Templian in this case, which is uh. Lost temple language.
[Who else do you think it is?]> Am I getting through to you?
[Eh? You don't? I'm pretty popular.]> Apologies, I sometimes forget I can only communicate in my native language, it must be a bit annoying.
[This bitch who snuck in here: Sugar, stop trying to please your ego, you're not that popular.]> Yeah, I thought so.
[Can't you just shut up, you damn outlaw!]> ... What's that clicking sound I hear now?
Also uh, I didn't make this obvious enough so I will say it outright.
Subspace is ∆∆∆. He made the nuke. He's the guy who the scientist called. He just uh, doesn't really talk like subspace and I apologize.
Have some more niche ciphers this time
Also the register numbers mean things... :)
-Log intercepted-
[Register: 1101]> Hello? Aha, I knew I could get this working! It is I, the great Subspace T. Mine! Since we have had an incident in our launch bay, I must now film a report of the incident and all that has carried out.
*quiet shuffling of papers*
[Register: 1101]> We believe that a divine force has interfered with the atomic bomb, speaking in Templian originally. However, after translating all of the logs, I have figured out that it is two people! Considering the fact that they both speak, or rather type, in Templian, we confirmed that these two entities are of a higher power.
*subspace pauses for a bit. Computer mouse clicking and scrolling has been heard*
[Register: 1101]> Hmph, these imbeciles also left a simple cipher in here for me to crack. No problem for the great Subspace T. Mine! Let's see now...
*silence, almost shocked, as frantic typing and clicking is heard*
[Register: 1101]> As for the contents... It is almost like these two entities are... Trapped? I can tell who one of them is, however. From the sound of her accent, I can tell that the 'intruder' is Rifle. A notorious serial killer originating from the Church. As for the other voice... I can have a gander. We have very little descriptive wording for them, the only one being that the other entity hides his face and talks formerly, almost with a blunt sarcasm, while also being embarrassed by something as simple as flirting. How silly, some presumably high entity flustered by a bit of flirting. We might also have to presume a god of sorts, since they are in some domain different from the Inpherno.
*more clicking*
[Register: 1101]> I have a couple of matches, but some of them don't seem... Viable. For a start, it's certainly not the Warden. If he was in there with Rifle, I doubt I'd find her voice. I hate her as well. Next we have... Ah. Venomshank. Doubt the guy is in charge of creations, too busy with his zombies, or wherever he's shut himself in to. How about...
[Register: 1101]> No. Can't be. He'd probably turn the bomb to a huge confetti cannon or something.
[Register: 1101]> Well, who even...
*more clicking and typing*
*radio silence for two minutes, Subspace seems almost... Reluctant*
[Register: 1101]> It could be... But, what's a guy like him doing as some being of creation? Isn't he too busy with that stupid show and competition running of his?
*sigh*
[Register: 1101]> I have, to say, inconclusive results. I've sent you over two files, they might be to perpetrators, and-
*file sent: Scythe*
*file sent: %'!0(/.%*

(Pardon for posting early, Reflexes and such, Will be editing to actually respond)
I mean; From a certain point of view(tm), It makes sense that sub was a lot more..Calm and clinical, this is HIS weapon that some lowly scientist is working on, respect for a fellow in his field but also anger at his creation not working and the need to stay "professional".
You made sub say the same thing twice! Ok so;
I like how while potentially rattled? Considering saying the exact same statement twice, Sub is precise, considering everything in equal detail and still not finding an answer.
Anyway cracked code under the cut!:
"This is stupid."
"Go figure."
The two inphernals were facing away from another (or rather, one was trying to hide their blush), one with head down trying to hide their face out of embarrassment, the other chuckling to herself.
"Look, Scythe, we're both busy people, you with… Whatever you do, and I personally have a huge stack of paperwork on my desk that I've been procrastinating on. If we want to get out of here, we need to work together. And you also need to stop flirting with me." His gaze was averted to the console in front of him, scrolling through a list of… Something, and occasionally interfering with one.
"Paperwork? Don't you just sit there and look pretty while people do it for you?"
"Oh, I wish."
"… So, after all of the bickering we've been doing… You're saying that I'm trapped in your domain, sugar?" She tilted her head mockingly, almost believing him, before she chuckled, knowing that deities always lied."
More or less, yes. We're both trapped in the domain of creation, and I have no idea on how to get out. Now that you're here, you're like an anchor. We can't wake up because a foreign presence has made its way here. And I don't know how," he sighed, turning around and leaning back on the console with his hands, "but you're here, and you've trapped us.
This time it was in Vigenere, with the keyword of TRAPPED.
Anyway, Domain of Creation? This does not apply to any of the deities we know about, closest there is, is GhostWalker and even then, that's one hell of an assertion due to his canonical lack of emotions.
Firebrand would be fun, but he'd be more jovial, yes this is a serious situation but he'd still crack at least one joke.
Icedagger...? Would be weird, not much else, plus would dip into the wrong territory consider how Shingle Shongle is writing the story (why the hell am I talking about you like a ghost??).
Uhm, Windforce? Maybe??? Plus WindScythe/ScytheForce is vaugely popular....?
It can't be Venom as Sub said so...Darkheart?? But no, they're a prankster!
hi hi hello my name is shingle shongle anon I need a silly name for a life breaking mentally torturing au
Also I love riddles. And ciphers
also this is an excuse to practice my Japanese
Blackrock was the first faction to develop nuclear weapons, go figure, and were planning on launching one at Playground, more specifically Splintered Skies, because Windforce can't do shit. The Korblox Administration had brought the weapon to the launch site, and was prepared for launch the next Lumeday.
A heartbeat is faintly heard throughout the launch site. An automated X-ray shows an organic mass in the shape of a heart is shown to replace all internal workings of the atomic bomb. Several vessel-like strings hold the heart in the middle of the shell as the lone scientist stares in awe.
As per protocol, the scientist quickly transmits to HQ.

[Register: 444]> Hey, boss, somethings up at the launch site. But... It's a bit weird.
[∆∆∆]> This line is for important matters only, this must be of importance, #REDACTED FOR PRIVACY#.
[Register: 444]> ... I hear a heartbeat.
[∆∆∆]> Pardon?
[Register: 444]> There's a heartbeat or something coming from the nuclear weapon boss. I'm not sure... It doesn't sound normal-
[Register: 444]> Wait.
[∆∆∆]> Report.
[Register: 444]> There's text on the screen, but it looks like Templian? Not the Church's adaptation, for sure.
[∆∆∆]> Odd.
[∆∆∆]> Templian is rarely used outside of the Church's adaptation, be so kind to show me what you're seeing.

[Register: 444]> Err... Don't presume you speak Templian.
[∆∆∆]> No. I'll get our translator.

[Creation]> Ah, mortals! What trickery is this now! First you wish to end civilization, now you break this damned curse? I don't think you know well enough to be in control now.
[∆∆∆]> For some inferior hacker, you sure do talk presumptiously!
[For goodness sake, let me have the wheel!]> AS QUICKLY AS I GET OUT OF THIS DOMAIN, I'M COMING TO YOUR FACILITY TO INFLICT VIOLENCE!
[That's not what I said?]> Your translator does not work well.
[Yeah Blackrock isn't the best with languages. Also don't lay a finger on my stuff.]> Ignore them. What you have made is too dangerous. So I had to interject.
[Register: 444]> Boss... This doesn't look like some hackers.
[Register: 444]> More like two people that know, like, I dunno, too much.
[∆∆∆]> You have no legal right to stop our nuclear endeavors.
*from this point on, Register: 444 and ∆∆∆ have been muted*
[Creation]> I had to replace what was inside of that weapon with a harmful entity that could thrive in cold temperature as an incentive to not unleash the end to civilization. You miscalculated how powerful those can be.
[Can you stop farming aura?]> I will be your intervention.
[Be quiet.]> And your downfall.

Cracked codes bellow cut if you wanna solve em yourself.
Caeser decrypts to:
"So," she chuckled gently to herself, that same look on her face like the one you'd see in the wanted posters, "you go here whenever you sleep, controlling what humanity can and can't do? How… Almost pathetic."
"Quiet now, you got us into this mess. By coming here, you've trapped us both. Until we can find a way out of this dream and wake up, we are rotting corpses." He scoffed, obviously peeved by her attitude. She tended to have that effect on people, he thought to himself, scolding himself to neutral
"Hm, pretty boy doesn't look good, do you need a kiss to feel better?"
"Gah?! Quit flirting with me, outlaw!"
"Goodness you can't take a hint."
He looked around slightly, sighing at the empty sight. "Despite this, you will be the only person to keep me company for who knows how long. If I do end up seeing you as a friend…" He reluctantly paused, before sighing, glad that he always hid his face, "which I never will, you're insufferable, it will be unlikely you get any closer to me than you already."
"Mhm, whatever you're babbling on about, handsome." Her gaze was off in the distance, annoyed with his constant speeches.
"I said quit that."
Best guess I have is it being Scythe and Subspace.
The japanese I have no clue on as I exhale more co2 than anyone else who is not from the Balkans so google translate time.
Japanese translates to:
[Who else do you think there is?] > Is what I'm saying getting across?
[Huh? Isn't that so? I'm actually pretty popular. ]> I'm sorry. Sometimes, I forget that this is the only way I can communicate. It might seem a bit annoying.
[This woman who sneaked in here: Sugar, stop tickling your ego, you're not that popular. ]> Yeah, yeah, I thought it would be true.
[Can you just shut up, you damned outlaw!] ]> … What is the clicking sound you hear now?
Ok so from this: We know an outlaw is talking to someone who looks at them in low regard..Hmm? Currently I do still think it's scythe and sub but We need more info.
[Who else do you think it is?]> Am I getting through to you?
[Eh? You don't? I'm pretty popular.]> Apologies, I sometimes forget I can only communicate in my native language, it must be a bit annoying.
[This bitch who snuck in here: Sugar, stop trying to please your ego, you're not that popular.]> Yeah, I thought so.
[Can't you just shut up, you damn outlaw!]> ... What's that clicking sound I hear now?
