the greatest thing about headcanoning your favourite characters as a butch lesbian is that you don't have to change anything about them

black clover taking over my brain so hard is so funny to me. like if you ask any of my close friends they'll tell you that i've been insane about this for so long ...... i have no idea why it gripped me so hard but this is the strongest hyperfixation i've had in literal years 😭 my sibling got me to watch it with her and didn't expect me to like it but i liked it so much that now IM the one annoying her about it LMAO

i've been itching to talk to people about black clover for so long because i have like maybe two friends who are into it/have watched it and im so full of thoughts all the time i may end up just dumping my rambles here at some point LOL .... i'm working on a self-indulgent rewrite of the story for fun just because i really love to play with fantasy settings and bc's worldbuilding drives me insane /pos

[jupitiger]

my qpp mutton (the tag bat for my blog is his btw) has requested that i begin to share his doodles and thoughts as we watch black clover so here we are (currently on episode 65)

his favourite characters so far are mars, licht (patri), (elf) fana, julius, william, yami, sally, rades, mimosa, yuno, klaus, and luck (a lot!!! but those are his top favs HEHE)

i'm so fucking happy he's watching this with me his doodles and hcs are so good i am so excited to share his stuff w you guys

HE WILL BE JOINING TUMBLR ONCE WE FINISH THE ANIME he's just avoiding spoilers for now LOL

OKAY so i wanted to talk a little bit about my rewrite tonight because i'm getting excited thinking about it again

i haven't started on any of the story yet really, i'm mostly adjusting worldbuilding details and personal headcanons before i start on anything major, so i wanted to talk about one of them tonight hehe ..

(post-writing update: this is a lot longer than i thought it would be. Oops)

one of my more major changes is that i wanted to expand more on non-humans and add some extra stuff since i really like when fantasy settings do that.

i didn't want to include like, a Whole ton more since that would sort of interfere with the clover kingdom's whole backstory and conflict with the elves, but so far my lineup of different peoples within my rewrite are humans, witches, merfolk, elves, dwarves, and chimeras. (as well as devils and spirits but they're sort of their own thing)

witches are their own race because i thought it would add a little bit more interest and mystery to both vanessa and dorothy's stories! and also an extra incentive as to why the witch queen wouldn't want any witches to leave the forest, since i don't think that's ever expanded upon. the witch queen has been alive for hundreds of years and has seen the cruelty clover enacted towards the elves, and in a somewhat backwards protective way wants all of her children to never leave the forest at all.

witches are actually more closely related to elves than they are to humans, though there are key differences in their appearances. some being;

- witches generally all have the same ear length/shape with minor variations. elves have a wide variety of ear lengths/shapes

- all witches have a darker nose-bridge/facial marking, elves do not

- all elves have tails, but not all witches do

here's a really small headshot doodle i did of what vanessa would look like in my au :] her catlike pupils are considered unusual and are a result of her magic. her ears are also considered longer than an average witch's!

the only kingdom i imagine being openly welcoming to most non-humans would be heart; clover, diamond, and spade are all considered somewhat hostile, especially after what happened with the elves.

merfolk are pretty self-explanatory; think of the seabed temple people such as kahono and kiato. another thing i don't think was ever expanded upon much was why those of the seabed temple aren't allowed to go into the cities, and so i came up with my own reasoning!

the seabed temple is not technically a part of the clover kingdom. much like the borders between kingdoms, the ocean is mostly considered a neutral zone, and therefore the merfolk of the seabed temple are not a part of clover's sovereign people. therefore, to enter clover territory and cities requires an extensive process to gain dual-citizenship, as well as the pre-existing conflict between humans and non-humans.

the seabed temple is pretty much the extent of merfolk who live in/near clover. however, i imagine there to be a large population of merfolk (as well as other races) who live in the heart kingdom!! i think that the heart kingdom would sort of be the central choice of living for most non-humans. it's always struck me as a little bit odd that there were elves only in clover, so i think that there would be at least a small populous of elves in heart as well.

elves i decided to make less humanoid looking, because i enjoy that in fantasy as well .. i also think that, as close as they were to nature and natural mana (especially in clover) that it'd be cool for them to have traits from their environment too! an example being here with my personal headcanons for fana;

(here's the text written down in case my handwriting is illegible)

- some elves have more animalistic attributes due to natural mana influence. horns, extra limbs, fur, and other odd features are fairly common!

- "magic markings" in the style of their attribute are common on the elves with exceptionally high mana. so for example, fana's flame markings! (i draw patri with little light sparkles and stuff to represent his magic but i really don't like the one drawing i have of it right now)

- most elves have tails that provide extra balance, although bobtails do exist.

- their ears are always pointy, though they can vary pretty widely in size/style

- they have claws which can be filed down

- plant growth can sometimes occur on elves (mostly water or plant mages) who are particularly close with nature/natural mana.

- they have animalistic feetpaws that allow for extra dexterity with tough padding that doesn't necessitate the use of shoes or covering in most environments.

chimeras are sort of my own original addition to black clover's world. they aren't a separate race in and of themselves, but instead a curse which could be placed upon anyone. chimera curses are extremely rare and are considered a form of forbidden magic stemming from a devil's power. (i may or may not have my own chimera devil oc in progress .... hehe ....)

essentially, a chimera curse causes the afflicted to gain animalistic or monster-like features, which may induce a loss of humanity or other unsavory things. i know that in the black clover wiki, weg is listed as just the term for humans who gain horns through use of forbidden/devilish magic, but i'm altering it to just mean any curse or affliction. curses are inherently devilish, stemming from megicula's sphere of influence, and hence, chimera curses are a form of weg.

there are two main types of chimera curses, which are generational and individual.

- generational chimeras are those whose bloodline has been cursed, and are born with their affliction. these typically result in less obvious physical changes, which makes it easier to hide and live a normal life.

- individual chimeras are those who have been directly cursed, either through their actions of tampering with forbidden magic or somehow by a powerful curse user themself. these physical changes are usually more obvious and very difficult to hide.

in my au, nero is considered a chimera!! here's a little doodle of what my headcanoned nero looks like next to canon nero LOL (also the glasses are just a personal thing, they were so cute on her in the movie. i had to keep them)

humans pretty much remain the same, albeit i do want to make some adjustments to how mana works, the differences in those born in different kingdoms, as well as elaborate more on the genetic factor of magic attributes. (i'm a HUGE biology nerd and i WILL be making punnet squares)

dwarves are the one race i really haven't done much with or thought of anything for yet. i will eventually, but i'd like to start getting other stuff worked out before i do!

OKAY I THINK THATS ALL FOR NOW ABOUT THIS SPECIFIC TOPIC!!!!! if you managed to make sense of any of my incoherent rambling, you get a gold star and a forehead kiss from me. mwah /p
