Ok new fic idea- aphmau role swaps
This is gonna get a little complicated but holding with me. Basically personalities and ideals should mostly be kept the same.
Aphmau and Aaron are swapped. Aaron was injured rather brutally in the loss of his village wondering into phoenix drop and lost his memory while Aphmau was revived in a cold wasteland by a mysterious white-haired lady lerking.
Sasha and vylad are swapped. Sasha was a shunned member of her guard and ended up becoming a shadow knight just like vylad and his family but vylad ran away and met nana. He died protecting her the way Sasha died protecting laurance. Sasha brought "irene" back and vylad had his memories altered.
Irene and shad are switched. Instead of everyone turning against shad for the magic he had, they turned on irene. She became "the shadow matron" after centuries of shame and guilt of her actions deciding if the world can't be great full for her blessings they deserved what would come. Shad on the other hand, used the canon to save his daughter (as best he could) and became "shad the destroyer of terror"
Laurance and nana. Laurence when young ran away because he couldn't bear his life after losing his family. No real connection to cadenza sadly. So he set up shop with his wyvern company. He was on the run to keep ungrth safe eventually he becomes a home for all the wyverns except raven who is swapped with ungrth. Nana ended up in metili and was taken in by the lord Joe. Her magic was trained, and she became a guard. Eventually vylad sacrificed himself to save nana and joe leading to his shadow knight statis and nana later saves aaron, leading to her becoming a sk herself.
Garroth and Zane swapped. Zane was probably disowned and in my head was the cause of Aaron's problems still. He took aaron to phoenix drop overwhelmed with guilt. In this is imagine Zane wasn't actively trying to hurt anyone he was just in the wrong place with the wrong cursed amulet looking for help. Aaron doesn't remember this and this is how the betrayal stung the end of session 1 happens. Garroth became lord despite hating the idea, instead of being outright evil he does everything "for the good of O'Khasis". He feels an unbearable responsibility to his home and probably isn't a good lord. Tbh I could go on about this one but I won't.
Aphmau has a grudge against garroth because Sasha did *not* keep it a secret her "shadow matron"(sasha is still a shadow knight and vauge cultist to the sk cause but more of a rebel i this). Garroth wanted to use her power to save O'Khasis from their "doomed path" because let's be real, garroth isn't a good lord. He'd take everything to the extreme.
Dante and gene swap. This one is kinda hard to do- gene is still vaguely evil but not actually. He did a bunch of fucked up shit in his youth bc he thought he could get away with it. Instead of dying tho he panicked and erased the memories of himself and (on accident) dante from the whole village. Dante was destroyed but putting things back ment gene could get in trouble, so he panicked and ran away leaving Dante along. In his grief Dante turned to irene and became a shadow knight while gene wondered to his uncle's eventually ending up in Phoenix drop after helping aaron the same way Dante did. Now gene does *not* end up with two babies. But I dont think Dante does either- kinda. Haven't figured that out yet bc i don't have a Nicole swap (also angst laurgene bc laurance replaces nana? >:3 )
This is gonna cover it for part one. I'll add more when I think on it more (and when I'm not at work)
