Sumeru Darshans Headcanons
Here's a silly thought that you can join in: imagine the Sumeru Darshans as Harry Potter Houses where they have their own personalities and stereotypes.
Amurta: (Study of biology, ecology and medicine)
The older scholars play a yearly prank on the new Amurta scholars to pull a vegan diet for their first week as 'initiation' to the darshan.
When cocky Amurta scholars try to approach Tighnari for 'seniorship', he plays this game called Mushroom Roulette.
Haravatat: (study of semiotics, linguistics and ancient runes)
The Haravatat scholars have their own language and writing system which can only be read and written by them. It gets revised everytime it's leaked.
Kshahrewar: (study of technology, architecture and puzzle-solving)
They have their own underground robot cage fight. Rumors says that their Sage actually knows it exists and funds it.
Rtawahist: (study of astronomy and astrology)
Every Rtawahist is obsessed with fortune reading to the point that they get theirs read everyday before the day starts. Even if you weren't originally addicted to readings before, you'll gradually be conditioned after becoming a scholar.
Spantamad: (study of alchemy, elemental science and ley lines)
Spantamad scholars like to use Ley Lines for bullshit excuses. "Ah the Ley Line energy flow is bad today, I'll have to put a rain check on our outing tonight." Fortune-reading obsessed Rtawahists and Ley Line lying Spantamads hate each other.
Vahumana: (study of aetiology, history and social sciences)
They're obsessed with fact-checking everything the scholars from other darshans says, and they do this through the akasha. It is not uncommon for them to stay silent for a few seconds after someone spoke because they're waiting for the akasha search results.
If you want to add your own headcanons either in replies, reblogs, or asks, I'll update this post with your addition and name! Doesn't even have to make sense, make it stupid!
