This is heavily inspired by the animated series Jem and The Holograms (I’m sorry if you know the reference because it means you’re as old as me 😆). There will be posts about other bands. Ereloy implied 🧡.
The band
Alpha Prime is a synth-punk rock band that performs songs about the struggles of social life and humanity's downfall. Aloy and her twin sister Beta started the band to take down Nemesis, the evil group that was winning every contest through dishonest ways before Alpha Prime showed up. Petra, Alva, Zo, and Talanah also had their own personal discordances with Nemesis, so they teamed up with the sisters to bring them down and make the world a little brighter with their music.
Unstoppable on stage, they've been number one since their first appearance at The Proving, the most prestigious battle of the bands in the music scene. There, they met the band Rock Breakers, who are not only their competitors but also great friends and allies against Nemesis.
With their manager Ersa, they’re getting ready for the competition by touring across the country. Their shows are called epic, thanks to their magical computer GAIA, which adds awesome visual effects and illusions to their performances.
Character profiles under the cut
Aloy
She's the leader of the band and their main songwriter. She plays her guitar ‘Outcast’, and her soft voice mixed with her feral screams make her the perfect backup vocalist. When she and her sister Beta were little, their mother disappeared, which shattered Aloy's trust in others. This caused her to become closed off, and now she struggles with social interactions. She seeks revenge on Tilda, the leader of Nemesis, because she suspects her of being involved in her mother's mysterious disappearance. When the weight of her mother's legacy and her own frustrations become too much to bear, she turns to her best friend Erend, the leader of Rock Breakers. Being by his side makes her feel more at home than anywhere else, sparking emotions she doesn't quite understand—emotions that end up fueling her songwriting.
Zo
Fans describe the soothing tone of her voice as healing, so it’s no surprise that she uses her ‘Fa’ mic to take on the role of the band’s lead vocalist. Always looking out for the other girls, it’s common to see her setting up meditation sessions before shows. As an environmentalist, she’s determined to take down Nemesis to stop the pollution caused by the companies owned by their members. She’s also (very) openly in a relationship with Varl, a member of Rock Breakers.
Beta
Even more isolated than her sister after their mother disappeared, she found solace in sci-fi movies and video games, completely avoiding social life. She’s a tech nerd who spends most of her time planning new shows with the computer GAIA. For her, forming Alpha Prime has meant gaining a new, bigger family that’s slowly helping her come out of her shell. Though she keeps a low profile, the deep beats of her bass, ‘Matrix,’ make the crowd feel the tremble and are essential to completing the band’s sound.
Talanah
Her cultural background made her believe all her life that guitars weren't meant for women—until she picked up "Khalis," the guitar passed down from her father, who was said to be the greatest guitarist under the sun. It felt like she had finally found herself. She made it her mission to become the best guitarist out there, regardless of gender—and she did. Now, she shreds alongside Aloy to take down Jiran, a member of Nemesis and the one responsible for her father's death.
Alva
CEO, a member of Nemesis, controls the town of Alva from a distance. Both he and his predecessors have erased music from existence there, repressing the creative minds of its inhabitants and keeping them submissive. Alva is determined to recover musical knowledge and bring it back to her people, across the world, along with her beloved Federa. With her keyboard 'Ancestor' in hand and performing alongside Aloy, she feels capable of freeing her people from the torment of living without music.
Petra
It's no coincidence that the crowd's cheers grow louder whenever Petra shows up. The power of the rhythms from her drums, 'Forge’s Breath,' combined with her strong personality and physique, make her a favorite, especially among women. She's an amazing musical engineer and has crafted all the band's instruments in their players needs. She's not here seeking justice or revenge; she's here to hit hard and push the rhythm of their songs to the max.
Thank you for reading! What do you think they would sound like?

This is two characters from my au Alpha Prime, I reused my own lines in drawing them because I'm lazy. There was also some referencing but as you can see the designs are very different so don't be too harsh. Lol
The one in white is the au's Sans: Versal, the one in black is his brother Wilson, also known as Failsafe.
Anyways, Alpha Prime was made with inspiration from an au I actually dislike heavily, the au was made to troll the undertale fandom and got big, yet the creator is toxic and the au is very poorly made in my personal opinion. Characters are so powerful it's sickening, like one who can wipe out the omniverse, as in all universes, all multiverse, across all fandoms, literally everything, none of the lore really makes sense, and all the characters are made up of the stolen and vaguely altered designs of other characters yet the au lore states the au came before Undertale itself and that all the main characters call themselves Sans for some reason. The au relatively tries to one up everyone and the owner is relatively messed up as a person. If you don't know what the au used for inspiration is you'll probably get a bit of a hint in my au's lore, with my au I aimed to fix everything I dislike about the other. I like strong characters but there's a line to be drawn, so I made these characters to be planet busters rather than multiverse destroyers. I fixed the originality issue by altering names, appearances, roles, everything down to lore, this may have taken inspiration but this is in no way an au of the inspired au at this point, it's an original concept now, though you may find a trace of similar characteristics in some of the more major characters. As for lore, I'm working on that currently, rather hard actually, I'm writing the story on Wattpad and currently trying to figure out how to go about it. I know the general story I'm going for and each individual characters lore but I need to figure out how I'm going to put it in to best tell the story to readers and cover what has happened, what is happening, and what takes place later down the line since the story goes into the future of this au and what takes place within it. When it's done I hope you'll all enjoy it, I'll be sure to update you all on it when it's finished. Now, here's some lore regarding the au, hopefully it helps hint at what the au used for inspiration was if it's not yet clear.
Alpha Prime is home to a vast array of characters, the eternal Solomon also known as Googolplex and his son's; Sans (Versal), Wilson (Failsafe), and Dennis (Riot), as well as Wilson's son Rameses. In this au, many things have taken place, such as Dennis's descent into insanity after years of torture at the hands of his brother Wilson, his eye torn out, or the revenge he took in slaughtering the woman Wilson loved. I do not want to spoil too much but I will say the Judge and Lord of the multiverse are both present here, let that be a big hint. Good luck figuring out the au used for inspiration and I hope you all enjoyed my art!
I apologize for deleting this post, the app glitched and displayed two but I'm reposting this now. Thanks for being patient.
That question is much harder to answer than you might have guessed. Despite having been forged alongside Alpha Trion, the more I explore the reaches of the multiverse, the more I have… questions.
I see a pattern replaying over and over throughout generations. The name is unimportant, the hint of the insignia remains. Alpha Trion, A3, Primon, Alpha Prime, Sig-Omega, The Old One, Solomus, Arrius. The mentor, ancient beyond reckoning. I see others standing by his side. A previous generation, a guiding hand, a covenant.
Things become blurred with time, and I find myself with all the time in the world. Sometimes I begin to wonder. Are we Thirteen because we were created to be? Or were my siblings and I all who remained, after Unicron and the Dark Gods were stopped?
Family: Parents and a little sister named Elsa (deceased)
Alies: Aloy, Erend, King Avad. Neutral with all the other tribes.
Tribe: lived in the old world, slept for over 900 years, slightly part of the carja tribe.
Nickname: Due to her driven nature, she can come across as hot-tempered dealing with people who think she's just a small useless girl. Many of the Carja and Oseram men call her Spitfire and want to break her fiery soul.
History: Delya is a multifaceted woman, from having overtly physical hobbies like: rock-climbing, martial arts and interpretive dance to being an expert in computer programming, engineering and problem-solving. She is very goal oriented and is driven to get the job done. Hence why she got picked for the Horizon Zero Dawn project and didn't walk away from it. While she started in only the delta branch, she was quickly noticed by her peers and got transferred to the Alpha prime facility. There Elisabet Sobeck took her under her wing in secret for a special project. The Omega clearance was given to her, making a program undetected within Gaia that could give one person a cryo sleep pod far, far beneath the surface in case Gaia encountered programming issues.
Just before the failure of the sealed doors, Elisabet send Delya to the sleeping pod chamber through a hyper speed pod track deep underneath the ground, leading to the sleeping pod chamber. There under the guidance of Gaia's inner function named HYPNOS, entered the cryo sleep pod unaware of the events in the Gaia prime facility.
Plot points:
Wakes up after the events of Aloy purging HADES
HYPNOS signal leads Aloy and Erend to the sleeping pod chamber
The waking up procedure has some complications and she is brought to King Avads Castle for recovery under a lie.
Learns the truth about the Gaia prime facility, the other alphas, Gaia, hades and the machines.
Goes on a few adventures with Aloy while trying to adapt to this new world.
Goes on more adventures with Erend and grows closer to him.
Falls in love with him, but Erend being still infatuated with Aloy and him being oblivious, makes for awkward situations.
Erend finally notices her and has to fight with Aloy and other guards a group of mercenaries that are after Delya who doesn't know this.
While Delya is waiting for a kind of date with Erend but doesn't show up. (She waits all night till morning cause the other guards won't let her leave). In the morning she sneaks away, traveling to the place where they were working and gets ambushed.
Aloy, Erend and the other guards fight the mercenaries but can't prevent one from grabbing Delya and sliding a knife across her throat. They kill him immediately, but are to shocked to check if Delya is alive.
They leave the cave, Delya still alive, leaving through another exit and hearing that Erend doesn't care if she is alive or dead, unaware that he doesn't want the other guards to know, he's heart broken.
She travels back to Hypnos, heals herself and leaves for a journey beyond Carja territory.
During her journey, she loses her left arm and foot, gets rescued by a group that makes workable prosthetic's and teaches them a lot about the old world.
After 2 years she returns to Carja territory, saves Erend and a group of merchants of a crazed Thunderjaw by luck.
She continues her work, while Erend and her have this awkward tension that neither of them will acknowledge and rectify.
Delya's friends come to help her, including their leader who is a hulking dude who has his sets on Delya making his.
Delya rejects him, causing him to lash out and wound Delya in the process. Erend jumps in to her rescue but gets the full force of his attacks, causing him nearly to die, until Delya swings Erend's hammer against his face and he dies.
Delya brings Erend with much effort to Hypnos who heals him during the span of 3 days. After he is healed, he leaves without saying a word and doesn't visit or say anything to Delya.
After a ruse of hypnos, he returns thinking Delya want to kill herself and wants to stop her. He confesses he loves her, she confesses too and they make up.
Few months later Gaia is restored, Apollo is returned and all is well.
Possible plot points after this
A clan leader of the Oseram claims Delya as his wife, as she inadvertently promised herself to him while she traveled through the claim years ago.
Erend and Delya have been together for 2 years.
Both of them fight his claim but are unaware of each other desire to marry each other.
A hand to hand combat is proposed and even Delya is opposed to such a outdated concept, nothing can be stopped.
When Erend loses and Delya has to stop the fight in order to stop Erend from being killed, she accepts his claim.
When the topic of children comes up and she realizes she can't produce offspring, she tries to tell Erend before she can publicly tell everyone else, but fails after every turn.
At the wedding, she has to tell everyone that she is barren and is unable to have children. The clan leader refuses her as his wife, while Erend asks her to marry her.
They marry and Erend is convinced that Delya being unable to have children was a lie. After 2 months of being happy again, she reveals it wasn't a lie, crushing his heart.
Erend accepts a quest of King Avad that has him leave Carja territory for a long time without Delya knowing.
Before Erend leaves it takes a few weeks and within those weeks, Delya gets a big surprise when Gaia tells her she is pregnant. Delya tries multiple times to tell Erend this news but he is still mad at her, so cuts her off every chance she gets.
When Erend leaves and she finds out that she won't see him for a long time, she travels after him and catches their convoy just in time.
Even though he's ecstatic about the news, he still leaves with the convoy, promising he would be back before she gives birth.
This doesn't come to pass and after 1,5 years of Erend not being home, she fears the worst. Sadly the clan leader hears about her children (twins, a girl and a boy) and Erend not being there, he kidnaps the three of them and takes them to his clan.
Delya is poorly mistreated but does everything she can to give her kids everything they need which results in her getting malnourished and having to deal with beatings whenever her kids cry.
Eventually Erend returns months after Delya's disappearance and is horrified that no one knows where she is. With the help of Aloy who herself had just returned from a year old trip, it takes them back into the Claim and finding her with her children.
Just a glimpse of Erend and Aloy, she finds new strength within her and kills the clan leader with a knife straight to the heart when he tries to lay with her.
When Erend and Aloy barge into the clan leaders House, they are surprised to see her having killed the clan leader. Erend and Delya reunite, where Delya passes out in Erend's arms, totally exhausted.
Erend and Aloy bringing Delya and the kids back to Carja territory, to King Avad's castle in fear of retaliation of the clan.
The retaliation doesn't happen, instead an older clansman comes and thanks them, expressing regret of not helping Delya with her struggles.
Delya gets nursed back to health and reveals that their kids are named: Erso and Elsa, in memory of Erend's sister and her own.
