Elysiaverse: AfterWar, Illumaple & Inktale brief backstory
So, y’know how I created Cider and Tainted Apple right? :D
Well, they belong to an AU of mine called Elysiaverse! Brief explanation, Elysiaverse is where things happen almost entirely different but their personality is technically still the same.
For example, Aftertale becomes AfterWar which happens during uh.. World War Two where Frisk is male, goes on Genocide and when yada-yada happens and Sans is stuck in the Save Screen, he starts hearing voices talk to him, telling him to find a way to kill that one human, Chara which- (Just read CQ’s comic) so, in the end, it was revealed that Sans/Cider could teleport to other AU’s once on the surface which was pure chaos.
He decided to help others so that none of them have to suffer the same fate he did. Hence, there goes Cider!
Dreamtale on the other hand is still called Dreamtale but Dream is Apple, Nightmare is Illumino. They share the same body though it’s usually Dream controlling it. Basically a Cross and XChara kind of thing. So, Illumino ended up making them eat an apple which which had both negative and positive constantly repelling each other.
From here, two scenarios can happen. Scenario number one is where the negativity goes into Illumino’s part, giving him enough power to earn himself a shell while the positive part went into Apple’s side, just strengthening him since he already had a shell/body of his own. Illumino was still slightly weaker than Apple but was quite satisfied with the current power, he’s just much more negative than usual but with good intentions.
They both end up fighting with Caesar (more on him next time) and Caesar had cut down the tree, stealing most of the apples except two which were consumed (INHALED) by Apple and Illumino. And so, the protect Elysiaverse alongside Cider and some others.
Scenario two which is less likely, is where Apple gets the negativity instead of Illumino. Illumino, being someone that was already good-natured, was able to stay the same but with his own shell. Unfortunately, the negativity would be too powerful for Apple and he becomes, y’know it, Tainted Apple. So, when Caesar invades that AU, Tainted Apple destroys the tree with him, getting half of all the apples while Caesar got the other half. Two apples would remain as usual and Illumino consumes their power (Why tf am I thinking of him just inhaling the apples straightaway-) and grows stronger than he would have in scenario one. This means that Caesar is weaker but Tainted Apple would be much stronger if compared to scenario one.
Now Caesar...
He’s Ink. So, when Caesar ripped out his soul which sent him to the Doodle Sphere, there was actually that small shard of the soul remaining, which means he would still be able to feel small bursts of emotions. So when paint fell on him, he finally felt like there was that one possibility of being able to feel more than he usually does. When he found out that there were other AUs, he wanted them to feel what he had to go through during his isolation. He wanted them to feel sorrow and blankness like he did.
Why I chose does names?
Cider because I got in from Genocider. I didn’t want it to sound terrible like my other names and thought, if I removed Geno, I would get Cider and it stuck.
Apple because duh, apples. Illumino because it’s like he shines in the dark when needed, giving hope even though he is a source of that small darkness himself.
Caesar because Roman Emperors. Ink/Caesar wants the others to feel what he does, to bow before him as he was able to create these soulless beings that act as his guards, like that of Roman Emperors. Another reason being I’m obsessed with Percy Jackson. xD Like I’m still waiting for Tower of Nero.
I’m also creating an Ask-Elysiaverse blog for you guys to ask me about it so that it doesn’t clog up my main. :D
So, that’s all for this post. Damn that was long.
Cider, Apple, Tainted Apple, Illumino, and Caesar belong to me.
