Heyo its the usual anon again. Hopefully this actually sends this will be the 4th time I've tried.
In the last ask i didnt really have anything sonja related but that wasn't because i just left her out. Its more that i fizzled our of the story before i managed to get to her involvement in the story so while i think it would be amazing if the two ideas worked hand and hand the sonjaxcapsize beach was probably the best patch job that could be done for her to be present in the setting at all without being just a background npc.
As for tom joining in trying to manipulate jordan. It's based on things that actually happened in season 2 with the whole dianitess trying to tempt jordan to their side [tom was just awful at it first he accidentally revealed that steve was actually with dianite then he left dianite's book laying around (the one that said sparklez is easily tempted with gifts so they could use that to buy his affections and change him to their side) for sparklez to find]
Now onto the main idea i was going to make this ask about
Mianite s1 characters and their wings
Tom: has goose wings. Strong and mainly used for slapping people around. Though their white they dont quite look angelic and yes he does get into quite a bit of mischief with them. He was originally disappointed that his wings were... well not all cool and bat like but after dianite explained that the bigger stronger goose wings were great for slapping he never looked back.
Tucker: large angelic wings. They seem to shimmer slightly gold at the edges and when he flies there is sometimes a soft chime. When folded back they drag on the ground behind him. Tom sometimes tries to get him worked up when he comes around because when he paces back and forth he unintentionally dusts the floor. It seems like he's always preening his feathers and still drops tons when ever flying but he never seems to look any less fluffy [ps the are verry soft tom assures us]
Sonja: same as tuckers on the outside but the underside of the wings you can see the skin of the wings and they are clearly sickly looking with black viens traveling through them and they've lost they're golden luster. When she flies her the soft chimes instead take on a slightly creepy feel like something is wrong. She often wraps the wings around heraelf like a cloak. It seems
Champwan: had his wings taken away for unspeakable crimes.
Dec: also had his wings taken away for encouraging said unspeakable crimes
Waglington: seeing the mortals having fun with wings makes some of his own. They arent really wings they are 12 tentacles [6 on each side] that he stretches into the shape of wings and uses to mine the act of flying. It is horrifying and cool
Nadeshot: has bat wings granted by dianite. They sre sleek and small in comparison to most others wings on the server and prone to breaking when used to smack or block others. For a short while he they became pure black and able to cut through stone when he joined the shadows
Jordan: has two sets of wings one on his ankles and one on his back. When folded on his back his wings look small but when fully extended his wings are almost 5 times his actual height. His lower set of wings are about his full height. They are both dragonic but the bottom set of wings has an eerie blue to it. When he begins to flap his wings it usually kicks up a strong wind and was the quickest of the heroes to take to flying
It did indeed send (though my phone is kinda broken and not giving me notifs anymore so sorry if they took a while).
Honestly I think it's fine to just not have all the gang involved in a story if you can't come up with anything for them. Like if leaving Sonja in the background works better for the story, then that should be done to keep focus on who the story is actually about. Though I have loved stories where a secondary story happens in the background, like I just find them interesting.
So I didn't realise that Tom actually attempted to manipulate Jordan in Season 2, I guess cause he kind of sucked at it. I still think in the story I would see it as a pretty big dick move, but that doesn't mean it's out of character. I just think in the situation that Andor is dead and Jordan has been pretty much forced to take the throne, manipulating him from the shadows is a bit of a dick move, but like it's interesting so that doesn't really matter much.
For the main idea: I love giving characters wings, I think it's really fun!!
Goose wings definitely suit Tom, especially him at first being a little disappointed that they aren't steorotypical devil wings. I can definitely see him using them to control the room by pushing people into position as well as making himself generally bigger.
Tucker having glowing angel wings is just chefs kiss. Him having just these large fluffy wings that would be expected of Mianite's champion. I like the idea of him needing to figure out a fighting style around his wings since they aren't as strong Tom's, though they can tank a hit or two.
Oh I love the idea of Sonja's wings being corrupted. I think part of what you were writing here was maybe cut off, but I like the idea of when she flies something literally feels wrong.
Champ and Dec no longer having their wings due to crimes is both very funny and reminds me of fallen aasimar.
Oh my god Wag is alsolutely horrifying but also just so so fun. I can just imagine the looks of the others when they first see them and Wag just not understanding the problem.
Yes to Nade having bat wings! I especially love them being very weak but then getting stronger when he joins the Shadows. I can imagine a fight where he surprises someone by hitting them with his wings and they just have so much more punch than he was expecting.
Jordan's wings are so interesting, especially him having two pairs. I wonder if the others know about two pairs, or if he hides the pair on his ankles just by wearing shoes. I love the idea of him being very powerful with flight, since I think that Jordan would be very comfortable in the air.
Also you didn't put her, but I like the idea of Capsize having dragonfly wings. She keeps them hidden a lot of the time because they aren't strong enough to take knocks during combat. She can flight pretty well, though everyone's a little shocked when she reveals her wings for the first time.
