What is different in Crown of conquest compared to the regular COTL universe? (Does Kallamar play any role in that AU?)
WOO I GET TO TALK ABOUT CROWN OF CONQUEST
btw go here for stuff on lamb gift culture in my au it was inspired heavily by op's wedding bells au which yall should totally take a look
ok so first i added a sixth grown, being the crown of amnesia. it's not actually in the land of the old faith, Woolbur's gonna have to go find it elsewhere but its an orange eye :3 (im also gonna write its own fic about it, bc i thought of it awhile ago) but i added another crown so i could justify the last crown having a seven pointed star lol
second, i gave all the other crowns animal forms as well. none of these are set-in-stone, but shamura's crown is a scorpion, kallamar's is either a jellyfish or a locust, heket's is probably a gecko or a salamander, and leshy's is probably a mouse or rat. leaning towards rat. the crown of amnesia is probably gonna be like a really small elephant or smth idk imma need help with that one, but the final crown, the crown of conquest, is gonna be a butterfly.
third, I want woolbur to interract with other lambs. that doesn't mean their people survived, oh no, he gets to meet lambs from outside the old faith. he joins a council of lambs, gathered to protect their kind, and quickly the rest of the council realizes that they placed a very powerful person on the council.
fourth, all of the bishops eventually join him. Narinder is last. in each one he overcomes their domain and gains their trust: for Shamura, they win a war they had no chance in. for Kallamar, they find a cure for a terrible plauge and administers it to all afflicted people in the cult. for Heket, they pull the cult through a great famine, and they even begin to thrive. for leshy, they whack him really hard on the head and runs away. in narinder's case, though, he just proposes to them and they get married lmao
theres a lot more that im going to talk about but these are the main things about it!! im really excited for this au
(also, OF COURSE Kallamar plays a role, hes my favorite guy!!!! hes important!!!!! this may be a narilamb au but i simply could not write anything without including kallamar even if its just subjecting him to minor suffering, also im still looking for more members of Kallamar's polycule so send me an ask if you want your follower oc to date him lol i'll also make a separate post abt it)
Within a town with many strange occurrences that are certainly explainable and not in the slightest supernatural, a secret romance blossoms between two members of the Miskatonic University Skeptics Society.
It couldn't be an oc kiss week without Tammy and Zacharias, of course. Our Call of Cthulhu AU is the star of today's fic, and this isn't the last you'll see of them ;)
Correspondence hidden between pages of textbooks, within stacks of papers to grade, under doors and slipped from one to the other. They never lasted long, how could they with how damning of evidence it was? The professor held one of these envelopes in his hands, glancing over the blank front before flipping it over to see the letter sealed with a bright red kiss mark over the flap. Loathe as he always was to break the small gesture of affection, he popped open the envelope to retrieve the loving letter left for him in the book his student had returned earlier this morning.
Professor,
As I write this I think back to the time I last saw you, dressed immaculately as you attended the homecoming ball. Though all the attention was supposed to be on the festivities, I found my attention wandering back to you. The way your blue eyes were strikingly beautiful against your crisp suit, the way you stood to the side observing, still as a statue… I like to imagine this visage was for me and me alone. It is another in a set of visions of you that I will treasure for the rest of my days.
My classes have been rather busy as of late, I find less and less time to write. I promise I’m not delaying any coursework to write this, I am keeping my word that I will not fall behind in my studies. Even still I regret having such little time to devote to the things and the people that matter to me. My previous leave of absence left me far behind where I should be, but I am slowly catching up. I have you to thank for that, I believe. Your words and promises are ever present in my mind, motivation to work harder than I ever have before to live up to the potential you say I have, and to perhaps even become useful to you.
Two years feels like an eternity to wait, doesn’t it? I suppose when you’re as experienced as you are, two more years is nothing. But to me, it is more than torture. I understand the reason, but that does not mean I like it. It pains me so much to hide my feelings from everyone around me, but I know it is a necessity. The name that aches to breach my lips, the feelings that I wish more than anything to show, all stay hidden within these pages. At least one person can read them, for now that will have to be enough.
You are in my most beloved thoughts, my wildest dreams and my most fervent prayers. Until the day I can finally be truthful to myself and the world, do take care of yourself. My love will be with you, wherever you shall go.
The professor catches himself smiling as he folds the letter back up, slips it into the envelope and releasing a soft sigh from his lips he tosses it gently into the roaring fireplace before turning back to his desk and searching for a sheet of paper of his own.
please dont try to get me to comment on drama, im avoiding it for my mental health. if i dont know about a scandal, dont tell me about it, im sure i'll eventually find out.

Hello. I just quit Twitter because you know why but I followed you on it before and let me just say your Blankshipping AUs are lovely. My favorites are Stolen Divinity, Selkie! Ingo and Kitsune! Ingo. Funnily enough just before I left Twitter I saw your Kitsune! Ingo pic and that immediate became another fave! May I please ask about what is exactly the Kitsune! Ingo AU and some fanart of it please? Thanks! ❤️🦊
I'm glad you were able to find me from Twitter!!! And I'm so happy you like my AUs! A lot of my AUs are actually joint AUs with @tombstone-pisa, including Stolen Divinity and the one with Kitsune!Ingo.
Under a cut because I dunno how to shut up-
There is a text-based porn game called Corruption of Champions where the story is you play as a person from the town of Ingham, a town that is very near this portal that leads to a world of Corruption and Sin called Mareth. Every year a champion is chosen to go through and guard the portal to prevent any of the residents from crossing back through to Mareth. Mareth is a world overrun by sex crazed demons and their influence has turned most of the population sex-crazed as well. As you play, you can collect items and foods that will transform your character with various traits of animals and monsters and they accumulate the more you consume. One such item can turn you into a kitsune which comes with their mischievous nature and their strong magical abilities.
We have a number of AUs in the CoC universe and they all mostly start the same. Ingo and Emmet were residents of Ingham, twins in a secret illicit relationship, in love and intimate. They got caught by someone and when exposed, Ingo decided to save Emmet from scrutiny and say it was all his fault, he had been the one to force the relationship, to groom Emmet into being his parter. Emmet wanted so badly to dispute it, but with all the hate immediately directed at Ingo, if he said Anything, then Ingo's sacrifice would all be in vain. Ingo was chosen to be the Champion that year, to separate him from his poor abused twin. The night before he was to be forced to enter the portal, Emmet snuck his way to him, Ingo being isolated and Emmet being guarded because of what an Atrocious thing Ingo had supposedly done. Emmet gives Ingo an engagement ring, telling him that he will follow the next year and to wait for him. They would have to make their future together in Mareth.
In this particular AU, there is something neither twin knows. That while a year may pass for the people of Ingham, a century passes for the people of Mareth. Ingo is heartbroken when Emmet doesn't keep his promise, Emmet never breaks promises. Ingo can only hope that Emmet is alright. And as time passes, Ingo becomes certain that Emmet must have had his own life. He never stops loving his younger twin, but he makes the most of his life in Mareth, building up a town around the portal, gaining abilities and becoming the most powerful kitsune to protect it, an immortal now. He never takes a partner, whatever sexual encounters he has have always been for the sake of others and not because he wants to. He will never want anyone but his twin. And at some point he thinks Emmet must be dead, so much timr has passed, he hopes he had a good life even if they never met again.
In 100 years to the day since Ingo first arrived, there's a bit of a commotion as someone has passed through the portal. Ingo is immediately on alert and goes to face the invader personally. But it isn't an invader. The one who stands there is Emmet, the same as when he had last seen him. Ingo is apprehensive, but seeing Emmet brings him a kind of joy he hadn't known for 100 years. Emmet is ecstatic at seeing his twin again, but Ingo had visibly aged and changed and that puts him a little on edge. Ingo takes him to his home so they can talk. And Emmet has a sinking feeling he has some idea what's going on. Ingo confirms that time has passed differently. And when he tells Emmet how long, Emmet has a breakdown. The idea of having left Ingo alone for 100 years, how if he hadn't found immortality, he would have gotten here and Ingo would have been dead, how Ingo must have felt being abandoned for so long. He is remorseful and filled with regret. He should have gone with him back then, he should have left that town much sooner than he did, hating it as much as he had for sending Ingo away, for treating him as a poor vicitim, for spouting hateful nonsense about Ingo at him in hopes to make him feel better about a situation that wasn't even true.
But now he is here, they are together, Ingo had enchanted the engagement ring to never age and wore it his entire time in Mareth. They can have their futures together as they always wanted.
But Ingo has changed in more ways than is immediately obvious. Ingo has become far more comfortable and confident in sex, he is no longer a prude. In fact, he is a bit of a dom, much different from the shy, prudish, nervous person he used to be. Dom Bottom Ingo 🙏
Ingo is very protective of Emmet and won't let anything happen to him, he will learn about Mareth in a safe way. Except Emmet wants to go out and experience this place himself. Ingo is so worried and is reluctant, but he lets Emmet go out in a journey across Mareth to see it for himself. When Emmet returns, he seems perfectly fine, but he certainly understands Ingo's concerns now. He is determined to find a way to become strong and protect Ingo too.
Dragons are very powerful, and immortal. He would never want to leave Ingo behind again, so that makes it a perfect transformative candidate as he does his research. A mix of dragon and salamander traits would give him the most strength as well as some very fun characteristics he can use on Ingo. A 4ft long tongue has many uses, after all~
For the record, Ingo has 9 tails, but he can have as many out as he pleases at any time.
