Ichtaca: My High Priest has no friends.
The Price We Pay
The monitor sang a disheartening tune.
Each beep rang through the quiet room.
Near the hospital bed, Natalya sat quietly.
She toyed with Gabriel’s miraculous in her hand and sighed when she glanced at the two kwamis. These anxious hours could not go by fast enough. She knew he would be okay and that he was just asleep, but this was still hard to watch. Her sitting in silence stopped when Pluume and Sass quickly hid, alerted by someone. Before she stood up, she hid the cursed bangle in her pocket. Ironic, thanks to who showed up.
...
Ichtaca stood at the door. She glanced at Natalya and then at Gabriel. Her heart sank as she saw her son in that bed. Hooked up to a machine, holding onto who knows what... Knowing she caused this, all from her own ambitions. If she could go back in time, and stop her past self from ever doing what she did, to make her realize the mistake she was making, she would do it in a heartbeat. But this was her price to pay... and she knew it.
She stepped forward slowly. Natalya sprang up, an anger in her eyes, but this was an expected response.
“No. Stay back,” she hissed.
“Please...”
“You’re close enough.”
Ichtaca reluctantly gave in. She was not in the position to bargain. She glanced once more at her son, but the sight simply cut into her soul. She looked at Natalya and sighed deeply.
“I’m sorry...”
“I’m not accepting apologies right now,” Natalya was angry. No... furious. “What do you want? Can’t you see he’s not awake yet? Not that that matters, because I doubt he even wants to see you.”
“I just have one favor to ask of you...” Ichtaca braced herself, “Can you... give me the Snake Miraculous? I have to-“
“You...” Natalya’s voice broke. Her breath hitched at the very sentence Ichtaca managed to muster. “You’re asking for that?! After all of this? Haven’t you learned enough!”
“You don’t understand. He’s in danger now, just having it! If you think I’m the worst thing out there looking for it, you haven’t met-“
“No! I understand clearly! You...” she forced back tears of anger, “you almost killed him... He could’ve died... and you still have the audacity to be here?! To say there’s something ‘more dangerous’?! To ask me for that?!”
She closed the distance between them. A glare that could pierce looked into Ichtaca.
“I don’t know where it is, and I, for once, don’t give an actual FUCK where it could be. You’re the reason why I’m fighting these evils. Why I’m undoing everything about this damned miraculous world. It’s people like you that make me sick! You’re lucky you’re not an akuma anymore, because I would’ve done something terrible to you,” that sentence carried a venom, “Now get the fuck out before I start to rethink that.”
Ichtaca stepped back. She closed her eyes and nodded. There was no point in arguing. She couldn’t win this fight. Not after everything. Not after this. She turned around and made her way through the door. Wasting no time, Natalya slammed it shut. She placed her hands on it and took a deep breath to compose herself.
...
“I learned just how cruel the Miraculous World can be. The image of heroes and victory, the image of evil always being defeated, and the idea of everything going back to normal is just an illusion. There’s always going to be consequences, and there’s always going to be a memory of the struggle and the pain.
I saw the heroes almost lose. I saw the greatest image of Paris caught up. I saw desperation by the heroes. It is proof that something is changing.
I almost lost someone close to me. The light of my life was almost extinguished, and that idea will haunt me until the end.
I had to fight for my life. I had to fight with everything I had and it was barely enough.
And I chose this path. Now I must walk it. I know this is not the end.
But I am not afraid. I cannot be afraid.
I must undo what this world has allowed to happen. To defeat the true evil, I have to be ‘wrong’. Order has to be restored, and these terrible outwardly powers must be kept out of lesser hands. To end what I despise most, I must use it.
The world will say I’m wrong,
but so be it. Because I know what I really am.”

(( Retribution and Revelation Event: END ))
Been thinking about which of the Shadowlands Covenants, my characters are going to end up joining - or what they feel most affinity to (considering I have a lot of characters that probably won’t get to max level).
Draggka - Ardenweald
Self-explanatory really - Draggka’s very connected to nature, I really dig the look of the Ardenweald already, and I heard rumours of Loa maybe hanging out there, so yeah! No contest. She’s a little bit ‘eh’ on the Fauns though. They look too cute...
Dranka - Ardenweald
Again, self-explanatory. He’s a druid. Of course he’s gonna go to the night forest which may or may not have Loa spirits in it. Also if there are unicorns there, he’s going to be in heaven.
Zal’ria - Bastion
The good girl goes to the noble place, which is also really pretty (and my 2nd choice of Covenants). She also, like the rest of us, find the Stewards adorable. In all seriousness, she identifies better with Bastion than the other Covenants, in contrast with her mother.
Khara - Maldraxxus
Now this was a tough one, and even now I’m not exactly sure if it fits her - she ended up here more through a process of elimination! I think she more identifies with the Necrolords simply because she seeks glory through battle. She’s too rough and tumble for Bastion, and she doesn’t jive with Revendreth. I could see her going to the Ardenweald, but still...it doesn’t seem to fit her. So bones and spiders it is.
Ximarra - Ardenweald
What a surprise, a druid going to the Ardenweald. What clinches it that Drust magic seems to originate here (or it’s been suggested it does), and Ximarra’s curiosity about it draws her here. That and if Gorak Tul is here, she thinks he should be cast into the Maw where he bloody well belongs.
Vandorn - Revendreth
If I’m gonna be honest, it’s for the aesthetic of having a werewolf in a gothic realm with vampires in it. Like, you gotta - it’d be rude not to. As for an in-character reason...it reminds him of Gilneas? I dunno. I might switch him to Ardenweald, but Revendreth feels better for him.
Harnaka - Bastion/Ardenweald
First one I really, really cannot decide between. Although she’s got a lot of ‘orcish honour’ going on, it doesn’t underpin her life enough for her to go to Maldraxxus, and she certainly doesn’t jive with Revendreth. So either Bastion because she genuinely wants to do good, or the Ardenweald because she’s a shaman and kinda sorta maybe connected to nature? Kinda leaning Bastion, but we’d have to see further.
Aiyaona - Bastion
No contest, really. The Sunwalker always trying to do her best goes to the noble dudes. Though knowing Aiya, she probably went ‘I’m a terrible person, perhaps I belong in Revendreth :(’, to which everyone went ‘no you idiot you’re the purest one here!’ and chucked her into Bastion. She’s doing Her Best.
Elizabone - Maldraxxus
Whilst kinda cool for her to go to Revendreth, I think Maldraxxus with their bones and undead shit is much more up Liz’s alley. That, and she does find some curiosity in the origins of the force that raised her into undeath. If she can bend it to her will too, then so much the better.
Cayeli - Revendreth
Probably the closest that aligns to her, as she’s turned off by Overly Good Bastion. That and hearing words that Kael’thas is in Revendreth has intrigued her. She still wonders why her Prince did as he did, and would like some answers, if possible. That said I’m thinking maybe the Ardenweald too? Dunno, need more data.
Tinkerspring - Revendreth
She’s 90% convinced she’s going to end up here when she dies anyway, so she might as well get started. That said, she also can’t stand how ‘good’ Bastion are, Maldraxxus doesn’t look to be any fun, and she’s not a fan of the Ardenweald. “Hey, the vampires look like they know how to party!”
Tamorn - Bastion
A Good Boi who is doing his best, he belongs with Bastion, and I can definitely see him being best buddies with the Stewards. Also I keep imagining him with angel wings and it’s kinda perfect. Orc monk with angel wings. A purer sight never seen.
Jeipuh - Bastion
Jeipuh is totally just following where her girlfriend Aiya is- I’M JOKING I’M JOKING she’s going there totally because she identifies with nobility a lot. And also her girlfriend’s going there too.
Lasai - Revendreth
Going there as an atonement for her sins during Elisande’s rule, even if she supported the rebellion. That and she does prefer darker places - still not used to the normal day/night cycles without being under the shield. Could possibly go to Bastion if things change though.
Jala’wi - Bastion/Ardenweald
Another I got stuck when deciding. I’m thinking Jala is going to Bastion because she’s a paladin and her values do match pretty well with them, but at the same time...I can see here going to the Ardenweald. Again, I’d need to wait for more info. If Rezan’s there, she’s going to the Ardenweald, no holds barred.
Ichtaca - Revendreth
Demon hunter’s going to the vampires because she hates all the others. Especially Maldraxxus because fuck undead aesthetics. Ardenweald just makes her sad about Teldrassil, so she hasn’t the heart to go there.
Chiuza - Bastion
She’s a draenei, Bastion fits her the best. Yeah, I know, but she’s not really a fleshed out character.
Fenrissa - Revendreth
She might be a druid, but Fenrissa’s a rebellious little shit, and she wanted to go where all the cool kids are going. She’s a worgen so I guess it fits? Wouldn’t rule out the Ardenweald though.
Zyesimi - Revendreth
What is it with my elves all going to the Goth place? Then again Zye is a void elf, so peak aesthetic, I guess? She’s also a warlock, so I suppose it fits.
Razla - Maldraxxus
Wow, someone’s actually going to Maldraxxus because they genuinely identify with them! Egads. That and Draka’s here - might not be her version of Draka, but she definitely respects her, and would like to meet her.
Zuzana - Ardenweald
A Zandalari druid going to the Night Fae...a surprise to no-one. Don’t look at me like that, her character is being revised!
My second Faerie OC, Ichtaca. He is the Fae of a small theater in South America, who was created by the magical residue left by a biracial kid. He embodies the facelessness that an actor without a role has, and fittingly he only speaks once a mask settles before his face. His masks are the following ones: Red: Anger Yellow: Happiness Grey: Sadness Brown: Disgust Purple: Pensiveness Blue: Surprise Green: Envy
Each mask has a different voice than the other ones, and unique reactions for the same topic can be gathered from them.
