Awawaaaa I’m just a very curious gal and u have really creative ideas and concepts that I want to learn more about!!
So something that I’m more curious about is Time’s stranger (I think it’s called that but please correct me if I’m wrong) in Entropy au.
Cause what inspired them to turn reploids into art and their end goals? Also what are their dynamic as a group?
HI thanks for waiting i was rotating this ask for a bit!
under polite readmore again!
THEYRE FUNNY !! Time's Arrow is led by an artist named Welcome Back, it was once a specialized surgeon for reploids, but it grew deeply attached to reploid components, finding beauty in them. It's friends with two entomologists named Corroding Sepulker and Vivela Vicereine who are also artists! The three are fascinated with using reploids as art mediums, either for sculptures, paintings, or films. They created an artist collective called The Daughter to sell their pieces to the rich and twisted, mavericks or not.
Time's Arrow are reploids hired by Welcome Back, willingly or not, to protect it and its museum, AND to hunt down unique reploids to add to its collection. The only four reploids who are TRULY loyal are its muses, three of which have a background in theatre and music, excluding its second-in-command, Return, who's origins are mysterious and undocumented. As long as there is a market, Welcome Back will continue its work.
Each member is paid well regardless of rank, Welcome Back also amasses extra wealth by sending its muses out for heists, ransoms, blackmail, or pop-up crime fronts. Lower ranks are essentially employees and have work schedules. Former members are dismissed or turned into artwork once they're no longer needed. They're gently discouraged from sharing Welcome Back's location, because there is no hiding from the muses.
Willing members:
- Deluge, Backwards, Stranger, Abyssal Jirocass, Empirical Hippotigra, Polar Rifta (begged them to let him join. he's a celebrity that wanted attention from the public.)
Members who were once prisoners:
- Return, Hyper Lynx, Lovesick Narcissus, Cascade Calyco, Deadfall Sealily, Cleaver Therizino
As for the individual members. here's their maverick statuses. I use Irregular here to describe faulty reploids (like Crush Crawfish in X3).
To know more about individual members, my TH page on them is here !
as always thanks for asking bestie. IF YOU EVER WANT TO RP WITH THEM LET ME KNOW.. IM SLOWLY GETTING BACK INTO RP!! WE GOTTA CONTINUE OUR THREAD
I’m a lil curious what’s up with the Landmark Au cause it sounds pretty interesting and cool!!
The monster designs are really fucking cool holy shit…
HIIII THANKS FOR ASKING!!!!! im placing this under a readmore for politeness
LANDMARK is an old webcomic series i made in 2015! its world is currently being rewritten a decade later because i have cooler ideas now. the new look is kind of sci-fi / fantasy and indigenous futurism. ESSENTIALLY a fantasy world with solarpunk cities and robotic monsters.
the earth is populated with 5 sapient species:
- humans - you know the drill
- standards - fully mechanical robots
- primals - robots with natural armor like clay, stone, fabric, and pelts
- ringers - evolved robots with organic, meaty insides and artificial outsides. slight shapeshifters (side note, im on the fence about the name. its been the same since 2015 but im not ready to change it)
- kazmic - organic, electric creatures born from lightning that need to live inside a machine or they'll fizzle out. most often inside machines or bodies specially designed for them. also naturally parasitic to ringers
the species dont live in harmony, but there is a huge overlap in larger communities. ringers arent barred from humanoid society, but they arent always accommodated for, especially if they're over the size of a bus.
where the X au fits in, the maverick hunters are called rangers and they are kind of like the monster hunters in the universe. all ringers have the sapience of humans, BUT a majority will act like monsters. rangers are sent out to reason with ringers causing problems like pollution, destruction, or disease. if they won't cooperate they're forced to drive the ringer out of the area!
zero is the only high-ranking ringer on the team, there ARE ringers who are rangers but he doesnt see them often, they also are more monster shaped than he is. he doesnt feel connected to monsters because he was raised as a human, AND he doesnt feel connected to humans because he knows he isn't one.
x is a human with a cybernetic arm, i havent fleshed him out much yet. axl is a kazmic and usually lives inside an ATV if he isn't in his body. i havent decided if sigma is a human or a standard, but thatll totally depend on how i feel about his interactions with zero.
other notes on this AU- the rebellion army are almost entirely ringers or primals, redips is a kazmic but is disguised as a standard. his "god redips" form is his true form overtaking the tower he operates from and turning the entire thing into his body.
some designs! most of this is in the old style, i havent started working on the new style yet.
zero and master x, god x, harpuia
leviathan, axl, zero and axl
epsilon, god redips
