You know what? I'm tired of being able to fit the entire periodic table onto a single sheet of paper. Let's put the lanthanides and actinides back where they belong. unless all of you science people are cowards, of course.
I don’t take complete credit for all of this, considering it’s my own headcanons and also ideas I’ve picked up from Fics I’ve read that I really like.
Contains:
General Monster Headcanons
My headcanons about LOVE
And my headcanons about MAGES.
LOVE and MAGES have violent topics, so be aware of that.
Putting anything on the South Wall is considered to be weird and also bad. No one knows why it’s bad. It just is.
All monsters make a variety of noises, but no two people’s growls/snarls are ever the exact same.
They have a specific language they speak in called “Font”. It’s basically them speaking through their SOUL, meaning it can create a massive variety of noises that is fully unique to them
Magic is aligned to a certain kind of element, which dictates what their Font sounds like.
For example, Dust Sans has a Blizzard Alignment, which allows him the ability to make things extremely cold and sometimes he can even start blizzards himself. His attacks often shed off a sort of snow-like substance that persists for as long as a week.
His Font would sound something like wind howling, maybe the crackle of quiet thunder in the distance, and the sound of trees breaking under the weight of heavy snow.
When he gets angry, there’s more cracking and shattering noises mixed in.
Big Boss Monster SOULs have all of the alignments mixed into one. It’s what makes them so powerful.
Monsters are attracted to one’s scent among all of the personality stuff.
The stronger and more comforting one’s scent is to them, the closer they are. This cannot be a one-sided closeness.
Not many monsters can purr, but those who can are: Ghosts, Cats, and Skeletons.
Ghosts and Skeletons are only capable of purring because when Monsters are especially content or happy, their SOUL gives off little pulses that attempt to communicate it.
This results in their SOUL’s shaking slightly and that usually creates a little buzzing noise in most monsters. It sounds more akin to a purr in Skeletons and Ghosts because there’s a lot less insulation.
LOVE and EXP
LOVE, for Monsters, stays the same number as the amount of LOVE you managed to gain.
LOVE, for Humans, is a bit of a variable. It’s easier to see how much LOVE they can have by the amount of EXP they have. However, no matter how much you’re not intending to hurt anyone, your LOVE will never be able to be 1 again. Instead, at the very least, you’ll sit at LV 2.
LOVE, for Mages, is a very different thing. For mages, that shit just doesn’t work the same. A mage can appear to have an LV of 1 and can still have EXP in the millions. When Judging a mage, you have to check their EXP.
And if it appears glitched or distorted?
You fucking run.
Mages
Mages are actually on a very similar power level to Monsters when it comes to magic-use. They’re not all-powerful “you-couldn’t-kill-me-if-you-tried” beings
They’re humans, capable of using the powerful magic from within their SOULs.
No, what makes them so feared is the fact that when you enter a FIGHT– the only easy way a Monster can kill a human or mage–... is that they can just…
Change the playing field.
When you enter a FIGHT with a mage, you are entering their most powerful domain. They are capable of dropping them and the monster abruptly into a desert. Into a forest. Up onto a cliff. It’s like illusion magic, but it feels much more real, so the mage can’t just toss ‘em off a cliff, but they can use the landscapes to their advantage.
And also the fact that mages just don’t give up. They can be on their knees, almost dead, and they’ll still be going.
That’s because of the determination in their SOULs. It pushes them onwards no matter how broken and battered they may be.
On a much lighter note, they also have specific alignments their SOUL Traits adhere to.
Mage EXP gets glitched and distorted when they’ve passed LV 20. They don’t have to be LV 20 at the time for their EXP to look all glitched/distorted, so it’s the only real way to tell just how violent that mage is/has been.
