I haven’t posted anything here in a minute hi guys

[Image ID: First image of two. A digital drawing of Phighting characters Scythe (Left) and Ban Hammer (right) in pool-themed attire. Scythe is wearing a two-tone teal two-piece swimsuit, rose-gold goggles, and sandles. She is holding a teal pool noodle and making a smug expression. The Text above her reads “Noodle Scythe”. Ban Hammer is in lifeguard attire with indigo swim trunks and sunglasses, a lifesaver draped over his left horn, and a white tank top. He is holding a giant pool net and an orange inner tube. He has a neutral expression. The text above him reads “Nethammer”. /End ID] [Image ID: Second image of two. An “Rtx on. Rtx Off” meme. The first frame (RTX On) is a screenshot from the “Phighter 14” trailer of Banhammer and Scythe standing on opposite sides of a set of train tracks. The second frame (RTX OFF) is a digital doodle featuring Nethammer and Noodle Scythe yelling at eachother across a pool with similar composition as the first frame. Floatiegraft and Slingshot can be seen playing in the pool in the background. /End ID]

Introducing Noodle Scythe and Nethammer, two silly pool-themed Phighting skin concepts me n' my brother thought up of.

All I can imagine is an ""AU"" (i used this term loosely) where everything is the same except pool setting. Noodle Scythe's most notorious crime? Running on the deck.

so.... how's everyone doing...?

warden/ancient city thoughts …

Anicent cities aren’t actually cities, they’re actually massive temples instead that devoted themselves to a certain god (im not sure what god the old builders would worship akandk)

They laid many people to rest in those underground crypts, that a bit of their souls leaked out of the bodies and infected the glowing cave vines, resulting in a strange mutation of sculk

and as more people died and got places in those tombs,,, the more sculk spread

Eventually some worshippers caught notice of this and assumed it to be some gift from the gods, so they continued to add fuel to it, experimenting with it, etc, finding out that when a creature dies— instead of the soul ascending to an afterlife, it is instead pulled down by the sculk and merged into what was like a sentient hivemind of connected souls working together to become something akin to an organism

At some point, as evolution of the sculk furthered and sculk sensors formed, it eventually led to a sculk shrieker

and after worshippers activated it a couple times in a row,

It summoned the massive, blind hulking beast known as the warden. It harvested as many souls as it could from the worshippers as it chased after them, leaving no one in it’s wake, before retreating back into the biomass until the next time there is a significant amount of soul that alerts the shriekers once more

Ok mini rant story thing over. i like to think that sculk works in a weird sort of method

Catalyst farm and form the extra sculk needed to begin an infection —> sensors pick up on sounds made by noises that supposedly could be creatures with a soul —> shriekers sound a scream that helps determine if a warden should form —> warden harvests any nearby creatures to help the sculk spread. if killed, the warden drops a catalyst, so it can all begin again

The warden itself is a weird amalgamation of human souls stuck together fused with the sculk. the main reasoning for it being blind (other than cave animals usually being blind since low to zero light requires little need for eyes) is because detecting sound means a very high chance of something w soul

Sculk sickness …. Possibly a rare disease only picked up by deep miners. nasty no good and probably hurts as the sculk eats you from the inside out

Illagers came across the ancient cities and set up camp for a short amount of time to try and study the sculk . you can imagine what happened to them

[ i like to think every ‘living’ creature in minecraft has a soul. that keeps them alive and thinking and breathing and stuff. and undead mobs have soul residue which leaves them with very basic instincts or things they subconsciously remember how to do ITS A FUN THOUGHT ]

[ in my little au illagers love experimenting w souls . because the more you experiment the more messed up results you get (vexes being the fused collective of 2-3 allays, or creating abominations via sticking two different mob souls together… possibly how ravagers came to be since they look a bit like villagers that got turned into beasts . fun theorizing ]

Hey invention? Phanon? I love your mind, it's wonderful. Have a drawing!

I've never drawn a warden before, mostly because it's been very daunting, but I think I got it out the way I wanted it to!! Sculk itself is kind of like... a fungus-y tentacle-y mixture, and i got some inspiration from the devil's fingers fungus irl! Really cool, I suggest giving it a look-see.

In my head, sculk would start off kind of like little eggs or pips or... whatever those things are... there's a name for it, when a plant or a cell decides to split off to make a new plant or cell? Mitosis? Bulbs? Plantlets? There's a word I'm looking for. Anyways. They'd probably grow mini sculk bits off of more mature ones so they can drop off and spread on their own, kind of like some types of succulent if that makes sense? Which explains the little sticky-outy bits on the wardens' horn things. Man, there's gotta be proper terminology for this, my brain is not finding the right words today.

They'd release some sort of bioluminescence when disturbed, and have an almost tar-like substance produced to trap smaller mobs (spiders, bats, etc.) that happen to wander too close, akin to fly traps. It wouldn't work as well for humans, but it's not uncommon to have your foot tugged on by some sculk in the hopes it can digest you.

I went off "The warden itself is a weird amalgamation of human souls stuck together fused with the sculk" because it's FREAKING COOL, so !!! Yeah!! I've got some of the larger/longer sculk tendrils used as arms and 'fingers' in a sense, though they're not all that precise in use. It just opts to smack the heck out of people usually. The bones in the shoulders and feet I thought were really cool on the in-game design, so I feel that the sculk would grow around any sorts of bones it had access to to keep a more stable structure. Keeping yourself upright if you're a soft mass of plantiness/fungus-yness would be a little tough, I think. Also, keeping bones close to the sculk might make it easier to tether souls together? Who knows!

It'd be neat to see what types of matter the sculk would attach to to form a warden-- it could be enderman bones, for all we know! Big and long and short and stubby, and all of the bones are in the wrong places. Using femurs for toes, or ribs for arms... it'd definitely not be fun to see in person.

Sculk sickness sounds SO NEAT TOO!!! I imagine you might be able to inhale it, like spores? Since it feeds off of xp or souls, you just keep fueling it once you're infected whether you like it or not. Does it have any cure, or would you have to have some sort of surgery to try to remove the existing sculk from your body? That'd cause a heck of a lot of complications, if it were to block anything internally. Wild, but neat to theorize about.

And YES on the experimenting with souls thing! Especially with the update so vexes look a lot more like allays-- definitely experiment material. I wonder how many more mobs are out there that we haven't seen because they haven't been made yet? Just mish mashes of any sort of soul they could get their hands on, inhabiting a body that doesn't feel quite right. Kinda interesting!

Thank you for sharing as always ily you rule. Your theories slap, may your inventory be full of diamonds or something. May the Nether's fire guide your way, idk. More piglin-y, as per my blog, lol.

Phandom, I need some headcanons on this. I would love to try and write a small textbook style thing on ghost biology, and I'm thinking, is it possible to make organisms that are acellular? What would that look like? Or should I stick with cells? What is the Realms equivalent of DNA and RNA, if there is one? Protein synthesis??? Aaaaaa

For now though:

Do ghosts have cells?

Yes, similar to Earth

Yes, same as Earth from when alive (neverborns?)

No, but they have something else

No, they somehow have nothing (how??)

A mix of these (which please)

Other (please explain)

Voting ended onJan 28, 2024

Yay or nay? Any related headcanons or explanations?

[ectokelpeigh]

Does fandom have a name for Youngblood's sidekick/babysitter?? The wiki just has him listed as "Youngblood's Assistant"

If not I'd like to suggest Oldbones.

"old bones" = a two-word idiomatic/metonomical phrase smushed together like "young blood"

"old" is an appropriate equal opposite to "young"

"bones" is not only on theme with "blood", but he's also a... you get it

So yeah. Youngblood and Oldbones?

Canon Confusions: Phandom Phanon Edition (PART ONE)

I had been a on-and-off fan of Danny Phantom for 4 years, and I kinda find out that there are some concepts, characters 'names' and terminologies that was thought is canon... Was actually fanon.

In fact, there are lots of fanon floating around the Phandom, that I could sometimes confuse myself if that was canon or fanon.

---------

Here are some examples of fanon I have noticed on the Phandom:

The Phandom called Valerie's ghost hunting persona as the Red Huntress even though I remembered she was not called like that in the canon series.

Also, it also seems to believe that Paulina's last name is "Sanchez" for a long time, but this is never mentioned anywhere in the show's canon. However, this fanon was finally confirmed in Channel Federator's 107 Facts About Danny Phantom, which Butch Hartman himself did and referred to Paulina as "Paulina Sanchez".

Many have believed that "James" is Danny's middle name, and because of the popularity of Danny's fanon middle name, I even used it in my fics. I still don't know the real reason, but 'Daniel James Fenton' has a nice ring to it. It was actually a good name.

As much as you don't want to believe it, the unique term "halfa" is only used ONCE in the series to describe Danny Phantom's status as a half-ghost, by Sidney Poindexter in "Splitting Images". It should be noted that "The Halfa" was used as a nickname for Danny before "Danny Phantom" (or Inviso-Bill 😂) became a more well known name, rather than describing his species. Apparently, the Phandom (and even Death Battle) has used it to describe half-ghosts like Danny and Vlad.

Danny's obsession. Some says it's "protection" since he always loved to protect Amity Park, and some says he doesn't have an obsession because he was only half-ghost. And even though we could see ghosts have specialized in some areas (like Box Ghost specialized in boxes and all things cardboard and square), the term obsession was not mentioned in the series (correct me if I am wrong.)

As much as we all read fanfics and fanarts depicting ghost cores, the fact that the cores themselves are a fan creation are shocking! Why would you say that? Apparently, according to some sources, there is actually a misinterpretation on our end caused by a dialogue between Danny and Frostbite on 'Urban Jungle'.

"Ah yes, the cold sensation. Your central core reading indicates extreme cold. As if your body is self generating it. I sensed it within you the last time we met."

Apparently, in medical terminologies, when medical professionals refer to a person's core temperature, it means they are referring the temperature of your internal organs, such as the liver, located deep within the body. In short, your internal temperature.

Vlad has a fire core. Well, if cores are real, the reason why Phans decides to give Vlad a fire core because Danny has ice cores. And archenemies with opposite powers are cool. But remember, we never seen Vlad ignites flames with his powers (not counting Dan, who is Phantom/Plasmius fusion who is apparently has fire as hair).

Many fans are under assumption that Ember's song indicates a bad romance that tragically took her life. Although, it was not confirmed, not that I have known of.

Ember's human name is 'Amber'. Then again, nothing is confirmed

Danny hates being called "Daniel" or "Dan", despite him never really having a problem with in the series. Makes sense, since Dark Danny was credited as "Dark Danny" in the canon episode. (but credited as Dan Phantom in that GBA game.)

Wes Weston and his brother Kyle Weston. Both semi-canon characters who the Phandom gave his own backstory and personality despite the character only appeared once as nameless background characters. The younger Weston, which is named Wes, was based on a joke where Sam was confused over the engraved name on the class ring Jack had given to Danny.

"Who the heck is Wes?"

Apparently, it was engraved Sam, but Sam read it upside down.

The term 'ectoblast'. The canonical term is Ghost Ray.

Danny blushing green in Phantom form. That makes sense because we saw Danny bleeds ectoplasm in ghost form, but in canon, he actually blushes red in Phantom form, like in 'Fanning the Flames'.

Also the fact of Danny's blood being a mixture of red and green when he bleeds. It only mentioned and seen in fan works, but not in canon.

We could see that Danny's a 7 in the scale made by the Guys in White in canon, but it was still unsure if the Fentons also use the same scale in canon.

Youngblood's canonically unnamed assistant was named "Bones" in fanon.

Also Mr. Lancer and his most famous fanon given name, "William". Probably because Lancer loved English poetry, makes sense his given name was based on William Shakespeare.

Ghost has their own language. Since Ghost Zone is whole another dimension, it makes sense that they have their own culture, especially their language. Although in canon, they naturally speaks and writes in English.

And the most obvious one agreed by majority of the fans: LET'S PRETEND PHANTOM PLANET DIDN’T EXIST. 😂

What are your other fanon experiences in Danny Phantom? Let me know! ❤️❤️

Wes Weston is like my favorite thing about the Phandom, so of course I had to draw Kyle and Easton too!

These designs are by @nastyburger!

*Easton turned so fast his hat took a second to follow. Thats totally why its like that. Totally.
