i saw people posting this so i got curious what mine was...
... that seems about right.... :))
honestly, this man's content is probably what's keeping me sane in college... his tendency to cause chaos is so fun to watch and i'm all for the shenanigans... i just love his energy and mischief and he has never failed to lift my mood, especially when i'm having a bad day... i can never catch his streams live cuz it's midnight for me, but the vods are always fun to watch and rewatch.

Additional notes:
only the vigilantes have civilian names for now... idk yet if I'll give the heroes one or not since I don't think it's gonna be important to the actual story
the redacted parts are actual info I plan to reveal in the story, but I think you can guess some of it already
also, i haven't fleshed out most of the characters yet, that's why most have fewer information
I tried to balance out each power so no one is too overpowered
I had a hard time differentiating and explaining Ren and Martyn's powers, so if you're still confused, feel free to ask
I might come back and add onto this if I think of more
#i had plans to reveal most of these but i dont think i'll be able to do those anytime soon so... enjoy!#... also school sucks...#life series#hero au#life series hero au#trafficblr#LIFE Team AU#Mira's LIFE Team AU#grian#goodtimeswithscar#mumbo jumbo#impulsesv#pearlescentmoon#bdubbleo100#bdubs#tangotek#ethoslab#rendog#zombiecleo#inthelittlewood#martyn inthelittlewood#skizzleman#smallishbeans#scott smajor#jimmy solidarity#solidaritygaming#bigbstatz#bigbst4tz2#geminitay#ldshadowlady

So Martyn mentioned in stream that he might get pretty negative reactions in the comments of his next Wild Life episode, and that he "got bored, started messing with people, went badly". Someone wanna bet what happened? I am guessing he might have eliminated someone while not on red himself? Seems like a typical Martyn move lol
(Also, obligatory reminder that if it makes it to the episode, everyone was fine with it, writing hateful comments bc of minecraft roleplay is a sad thing to waste time on etc etc)

I don’t go on Twitter often, but I did catch this.
Please be kind. This series is meant to be fun. It’s insane to me that people would be cruel about which friends people choose to hang out with in a Minecraft series. It’s okay if people gravitate toward the same people. If it were you, you’d automatically hang out with your closest friends too. It’s absolutely bonkers that people are actually taking to the comment sections about it.
C’mon, we’re better than this. For goodness sake.
“It’s boring” oh my god, as if it isn’t always hilariously entertaining regardless of who hangs with who, I swear to god…

sorry for not being active... the next L.I.F.E. Team introduction is scar (vex), but I'm having trouble with his costume so it's taking longer than i thought... so have this for now...
i give to you a short glimpse of Grian's backstory to how he became The Architect.
A Hero's Beginning (part 1 of ??)
Grian didn't know how long he had been walking for, but he thinks it must've been hours now if his aching feet were any indication. If he’d have known that running away would've led to him becoming lost, tired and hungry then he would've planned this a little bit better.
Oh, who was he kidding? If he’d have stayed in that dreadful place any longer he never would've escaped in the first place. And who knows what else they were gonna do.
No. Running away when he did was the best decision he could've made.
At least I was able to pack some stuff. Grian thought to himself, adjusting the strap of the worn out cloth bag slung over his shoulder. He wasn't able to bring much— who knows what sort of tracker they put in his belongings— but hopefully a handful of cash and some spare clothing would help him survive until he can settle somewhere safe.
Grian doesn't really know where he’s going so he just began to follow the first road he comes across. Eventually, he comes across what appears to be a highway in an open plains. It wasn't a busy one, just a few cars every now and again, but following it would hopefully lead him to a town or a city.
Hopefully I can find someplace to rest. My feet are killing me! He grumbled in his mind.
Grian continued to follow the road, making sure he sticks a good distance away from the actual road unless he wants to get run over by a car. The thought of waving down one of the passing cars to ask for a ride has crossed Grian’s mind a couple of times, and every time, he shuts it down. No sane person would just give a random guy on the street a ride in their car.
The sun was high in the sky when Grian heard a car horn behind him. Looking back, he saw a car slow down parallel to him. Feeling wary, Grian kept his distance and got ready to run if needed, although he didn't think he’d get far with how much his feet and legs were aching.
The passenger window rolled down to reveal the concerned face of a pink haired woman. Beside her, a man with dark brown hair leaned over to look at Grian, brown eyes scanning him from head to toe.
“Hey, are you alright?” The woman asked, her voice light and kind.
Unsure of the two’s motives yet, Grian kept quiet. The woman continued, “We saw you and thought you might need some help.”
“Yeah, man, why’re you walking in the middle of nowhere?” The man asked.
Grian struggled to think of an excuse. Obviously he can't just tell them the truth— they could be spies sent by them for all he knew— but he couldn't think of a believable story, his tired body making it hard to think. Thinking about his aching limbs made him more aware of just how hungry and thirsty he really was. Great.
The woman seemed to notice Grian’s hesitance and quickly waved her hands. “Oh, you don't have to tell us if it bothers you,” she assured him. “We were on our way back to Nexus from a vacation when we saw you, and we’re wondering if we could give you a ride.”
Nexus.
Grian perked up at that. “Nexus?” He repeated, hope evident in his voice. “As in, Nexus City?”
“Yeah,” the man confirmed. “You headed there, too?”
Grian thought for a moment, his gaze flicking to the road ahead. He heard about Nexus City. The largest city this side of the continent, and a perfect place for someone like him to blend in and lay low. Hopefully, they won't have much of an influence there as well.
But…
Looking up at the couple before him, Grian could tell they were genuinely nice people. But one could never be too safe.
Grian felt the familiar hum at the back of his mind as he dived into the couple’s minds. He didn't dive too deeply into memories, just deep enough to get the information he wanted. It took all of two seconds to find out that these two were not associated in any way with them.
After confirming it, Grian looked back at the couple, who was patiently waiting for his response. Getting a ride to the city would save him time, and could also give him time to rest his feet. He just had to know one other thing…
“Are you sure giving a complete stranger a ride is safe?” Grian asked the couple. “I mean, I could be a bad person for all you know!”
“Are you?” The man asked, raising an eyebrow.
“No…?”
“Then you’re fine,” was all the man said before leaning back out of view. “Now, do you want a ride or not?”
The pink haired woman smacked the man’s shoulder. “Be nice, babe.”
Grian thought about it. He didn't find any evidence that these two were bad people, and getting a ride to Nexus City will be more beneficial for him. So without another thought, Grian nodded.
“Sure.”
The woman beamed. “Great! Hop on!” She called before turning on her seat to open the back door. Once Grian was inside, the man began driving again.
The ache in Grian’s legs and feet were more prominent now that he’s sitting down and he couldn't help but sigh in relief at the chance to rest. Looking ahead, Grian decided it wouldn't hurt to at least introduce himself to the nice couple.
“Thanks for the ride. I’m Grian, by the way.”
The pink haired woman looked back at him with a wide smile. “Nice to meet you, Grian!” She exclaimed before gesturing to herself and the man. “I’m Lizzie, and this is Joel.”

my brain has once again thought of stuff so i'll just drop these here before it could consume my mind any further...
here we go :')
a crossover between the life series and genshin impact where the watchers are unknown entities that feed on chaos, fear and negativity. the extent of their powers are unknown, but they supposedly could influence events or happenings in Teyvat either by using the natural world or influencing someone to do their will (for example, martyn). they thrived during the archon wars, but since the fall of khaenriah, they've had less and less chaos and fear to feed on as the time goes on. the knowledge of their existence eventually faded until only a select few (and several very curious individuals) know of them.
eventually, the Watchers have grown desperate to feed, so they created special domains where they put the life series members in various death games on multiple occasions. (these are basically just the different seasons of the life series, except no one actually dies.)
that's all i'm sharing for now cuz this has actually taken root inside my brain now... :')
#trafficblr#life series#brain worms#i intended to share this before it takes over my brain but writing this actually sped up the process :')#if i have to suffer through my brain's ideas i'll just pull you all along with me#jk i love you guys and i actually think this is an interesting story concept#feel free to use this for your own... i'd love to see this idea actually get anywhere#genshin impact#life series x genshin impact

do you think you could make a list of which hero is who? sorry it’s just confusing
Yknow, i was planning on revealing them one at a time, but there's 18 characters and i feel like it's gonna take me some time to even begin drawing the next person, so why not reveal it now?
Here's a list of who is who, as well as a bit of info (this is a long one so brace yourselves);
The Architect = Grian
- as already revealed, Grian's power is psychokinesis (which is closely related to, but is not telekinesis). The first part of his poem, "Mind over matter", reveals this but there's more to it than that. His wings are also thought to be part of his powers, but whether or not that's true will be revealed in the actual story i'll write. The character introduction hinted at some things, but I'm not gonna point them out until much later.
(Since I haven't properly introduced the rest of the cast yet, I'll avoid mentioning their powers or any other info. You guys will just have to either wait for their introductions, or take a wild guess. I'll just give you guys some behind the scene of each alias and poem)
Vex = Scar
- I honestly had a hard time coming up with the alias for Scar. Eventually, I settled for Vex because some fans headcanon Scar as a vex hybrid, also because the name means "to bring trouble" or "to annoy by petty provocations", which is close to what I plan for Scar in this AU. Also, his poem "A silver tongue, a voice that sways" not only gives a nod to how he usually swindles people in the life series but it also hints at what his power is.
The Mechanic = Mumbo
- I mean... i think it's kinda obvious the person whose poem says "Where machines are present, his genius stands" is gonna be Mumbo. I think i could've thought of a better alias for Mumbo, but I just couldn't at the time, and I guess this has already stuck so... yeah, Mechanic it is for Mumbo.
Trapline = Impulse
- I haven't really watched Impulse that much so I didn't really know what power to give him. But then I watched one of his build and seek videos and I learned that he's good at redstone, so I decided to make his power have something to do with machines as well. And since we already have Mumbo as the tech guy, I just decided to have Impulse be the trap guy. Hence his poem, "A snare unseen, a trap well laid". The alias Trapline just sounded cool to me.
Scarlet Moon = Pearl
- I mean... i think the alias already gives it away. Anyways, Pearl's alias and power was one of the ones that came easy to me. I wanted her whole theme to still be tied to the moon so... Scarlet Moon it is. As for her powers, the first line of her poem, "Gravity bows to her lunar might", kinda gives it away.
Timekeeper = Bdubs
- I don't know much about Bdubs as well, nor have I watched any of his POV (i found the life series through martyn so i mainly watch his pov), but i've seen fanfics and fanart alike of him having a clock and his moss cloak thingy, so i decided to base his power on that. So the first line of his poem, "Time bends where flowers bloom", gives a nod to that, as well as hint at his powers. Bdubs' powers is one of the things I'm very proud of. His character in this AU is also one of the more complex characters. As for his alias, the public only knows about one part of his powers so I thought, "what would people call someone with that power?", and I came up with Timekeeper.
Blaze = Tango
- I actually feel bad for giving Tango a very basic alias, but i really can't think of anything else. I only really got interested in Tango during Double Life, cuz him with Jimmy is really wholesome. I noticed that fanon is that Tango is a blaze hybrid so I just took that and ran. I also loved his reaction in Double Life to the ranch burning, so the last part of his poem, "Heat and flame, in fury's daze", gives a nod to that as well as his powers. Honestly, most of the characters' poems hint at both their powers and something that reminds me of them.
Phantom = Etho
- Honestly, i don't really remember my exact thought process on why I chose Etho's alias and power to be what they are. I think it was literally because his skin is a character from Naruto, and so i guess I just thought, "Naruto... ninja... invisible, yes, yes." And i said i won't mention the characters' powers but actually, the first line of Etho's poem, "Invisible steps, shadows in tow", already gave it away. And there's more to his powers than that anyways, so I guess it's fine.
Maestro = Ren
- Ren's alias gave me a hard time cuz I couldn't think of something that sounds dramatic enough. I ended up going with Maestro since the word means "a master usually in an art", and since Ren gives such a theater kid vibe, I went with it. Now, I had a bit of trouble with his power, mainly because it's similar to another character's, but I evntually found a way to differentiate the two so it's all good now. I just love Ren and Martyn's dynamic in 3rd Life, and in any interaction they have honestly. Ren's entire poem gives a nod to his dramatic theater kid vibe, but the line "Illusions dance, a show so grand" hints at what I plan for his whole character to be in the AU. And it also parallels the other character with similar powers to Ren.
Fortress = Cleo
- Cleo was one of the harder persons to think of a power and alias for. So i went and looked through videos and fanfics alike to see what i can pick up, and I noticed that in most fanfics I read, Cleo is often depicted as a strong and reliable person, and I can get that vibe in the videos I've seen of them. What really solidified my decision for her power, though, is that one moment in Double Life where she tells Martyn that they're both survivors, and that really stuck to me. As for the alias, the word fortress already gives the impression of strong and formidable, so I went with that. It felt like a weird alias the first few times, but it eventually grew on me, and now I kinda like it. The first line of their poem, "Strong as stone, yet swift to mend", also hints at another part of their power.
Mirage = Martyn
- I love his and Ren's theater kids vibe, and it's one of the reasons why I made their powers to be so similar. The reason for Martyn's power and alias is mostly because he's well known for always sneaking around without being seen most of the time, and being able to get away unseen as well. It's also that one line from Skizz during Secret Life that really cemented the power and alias. Skizz was complementing Martyn's ability to sneak around unnoticed and commented, "I'm honestly only 50% certain that you're standing in front of me." Also, aside from the powers, Ren and Martyn's poems are also very similar in the first part. Whereas Ren's is "Illusions dance", Martyn's first line, "Illusions twist, reality bends", not only hints at what differentiates his powers from Ren, but also references how Martyn likes to gaslight people, especially during Secret Life.
Sanguine = Skizz
- Skizz's alias and power are ones I'm most proud of. Every character's powers mostly have more than one part to it, and Skizz's is one i really like. One part of his power, I got inspiration from a fanfic I read in AO3 called "Wake the Dead" by Kiki_the_kiwi. The other part, i got inspiration from the way I noticed Skizz usually becomes in the life series (which martyn also pointed out during his interview in the Imp & Skizz Podcast). The first line of Skizz's poem, "Blood and battle, strength reborn", references this. As for his alias, it took me a long time to pick. I wanted something that suited his power and his character, and I eventually ended up on Sanguine. While it's not the most cool-sounding name, its meaning actually suits Skizz's character in this AU. Sanguine has two meanings, the first being "someone who is cheery" and the other being "blood" or "bloodthirsty", so... you can probably guess why I chose this alias for Skizz, and it also suits the way his power works.
Fenrir = Joel
- Actually, Joel was the hardest to think of a power for because his chaotic nature in the life series doesn't really leave me with a solid idea. Eventually, I just stuck to his 3rd Life vibe, which involves wolves. Hence the alias Fenrir, which is some sort of wolf Norse god, I'm not really sure, I didn’t research it that much (i also just really like the name). As for his powers, the same with every other character's powers in this AU, there's more to it than the surface level. The last part of his poem, "Strength in the pack, yet prone to fall", hints at this.
Starstrike = Scott
- For Scott, i mostly stuck to the most common winner symbol for him, which is stars. His powers isn't as complicated as the others, and the last part of his poem, "A shield, a blade, a step so sure", hints at what he can do with his powers. As for his alias, I guess it just sounded cool to me. I wanted something that relates to his star theme, but also gives the impression of someone not to be messed with, so I went with Starstrike.
The Canary = Jimmy
- Honestly, do I even have to explain? Lol! Jimmy's powers also got inspiration from the same fic I got for Skizz, which is "Wake the Dead" by Kiki_the_kiwi on AO3 (you should really check it out). And his poem, "The first to fall when danger is near", also references his Canary Curse.
Quake = BigB
- i honestly didn't know much about BigB as well, but from what I remember of him, mostly in 3rd and Secret Life, he was mostly mining/digging underground while stuff happens on the surface. His poem, "A rumble deep, the earth obeys", kinda also hints at this, as well as reminds me of his backrooms shtick in Secret Life.
Flora = Gem
- I kinda feel bad, but I honestly gave up with Gem, since I know less about her than others members since she's still a bit new to the life series, and I didn't really watch any of her stuff before. But the vibe I got from her is that she's sweet, but also kinda dangerous. So i thought, the alias Flora sounds sweet, but since it refers to plants and the like, it could also mean danger since there are dangerous plants. Her powers, though, isn't what you would initially think. Like I said, there's more to the characters' powers than what is on the surface level. And Gem's poem, "Nature's strength in her entwines", not only hints at another part of her powers, but also references where I got the inspiration for her powers, which is a certain character from the anime/manga called "Bungou Stray Dogs".
Nightshade = Lizzie
- Lizzie's power was one of the easiest to think of, but of course, there's more to her powers. The name Nightshade is something I really like, and with it being a beautiful plant usually associated with darkness and mystery, I thought that it suits Lizzie well, especially in the AU. Her poem, "In darkness she dwells with deadly grace", further insinuates this.
Aaaand, that's all of them! Sorry for the long post, but I also wanted to share my thought process in picking the alias for each character. And while I don't want to reveal too much of their powers until they get properly introduced, i figured it's fine to touch on the behind the scenes of it for a bit.
What do you guys think? Also, for the anon who asked, I hope this clears things up! :)

L.I.F.E. Team Introduction #1
INTRODUCING...
Grian as The Architect
Status: Hero
Power: Mind's Eye
Mind over matter, wings of steel,
The heart of a leader, the truth concealed.
The Architect is the first ever hero to emerge in Nexus City. No one knows where he came from, and no one really cares, as long as Architect continues to protect the city and its citizens from danger. He is one of the founders and the leader of the well known LIFE Team.
The Architect is an excellent fighter, and an even greater strategist. His power allows him to move objects with his mind, and to use those objects to construct what he needs. And with his ability to fly thanks to his wings, he can control the battlefield and build what is necessary to ensure the LIFE Team's success. Many have speculated that he might have some sort of telepathic ability, but there is no evidence to back this up. And if he isn’t using his powers to build, he's using it to move his throwing daggers across the battlefield. His pinpoint accuracy can be enough to take down any enemy.
He is also an excellent leader to the LIFE Team, as his teammates respects him and one look is all it takes for them to know what his next strategy is. The Architect's strategies have always brought the Team to victory. He has been a beacon of hope for the citizens of Nexus City from the very beginning, and now with the rest of the LIFE Team, many can look forward to a safer future.
But every hero has his origin, and the Architect's may not be what most would imagine.

In a world teetering on the edge of chaos, a team of extraordinary individuals has emerged from the shadows to protect their beloved Nexus City. Each with their own unique abilities, they form an alliance known as the L.I.F.E. Team — a group of heroes and vigilantes that stand against threats both seen and unseen. Come meet the legendary figures that shape the future of this world:
"Mind over matter, wings of steel,
The heart of a leader, the truth concealed."
The Architect
A mind beyond comprehension, shaping the world with thoughts alone. His vision for the future is unmatched, and with him, the impossible becomes reality.
"A silver tongue, a voice that sways,
Peace before battle, in words he plays."
Vex
With a silver tongue and a charm that cannot be resisted, he’s a master of persuasion, leading the unwary wherever he wishes without lifting a finger.
"Technology obeys, his will commands,
Where machines are present, his genius stands."
The Mechanic
A genius who sees the world in circuits and machines, turning the ordinary into the extraordinary, his creations are as limitless as his mind.
"A snare unseen, a trap well laid,
Silent but deadly, in shadows he's made."
Trapline
A patient hunter who lays traps unseen, controlling the battlefield with deadly precision. His enemies are caught before they even realize they’ve stepped into his web.
"Gravity bows to her lunar might,
A crescent blade, in scarlet night."
Scarlet Moon
A force as elusive as the night sky, she pulls the world into her orbit, bending the unseen forces that surround her to her will.
"Time bends where flowers bloom,
The clock ticks down to nature's doom."
Timekeeper
Time is his domain, bending at his command, flowing like the petals of a flower in bloom. With him, moments are as fluid as nature itself.
"Fire that burns, a heart ablaze,
Heat and flame, in fury's daze."
Blaze
A walking inferno, he ignites everything in his path, channeling a fierce inner fire that consumes all in its wake.
"Invisible steps, shadows in tow,
A silent strike, from darkness flow."
Phantom
A ghost in the night, unseen and untouchable, he drifts between the visible and invisible, always just out of reach.
"Illusions dance, a show so grand,
Master of disguise, transform the land."
Maestro
Reality bends to his performance, a showman whose illusions blur the line between fantasy and truth. With each act, he changes the very stage of life itself.
"Strong as stone, yet swift to mend,
The walls stand firm, never to bend."
Fortress
A pillar of unyielding strength, she stands unbroken, taking on the weight of the world without faltering.
"Illusions twist, reality bends,
Truth and lies, in havoc descends."
Mirage
A master of deception, nothing is ever as it seems in his presence. He weaves false realities, leaving his enemies questioning what’s real.
"Blood and battle, strength reborn,
A healer's hand, a warrior's scorn."
Sanguine
A warrior fueled by the heat of battle, growing stronger as the fight intensifies. His power feeds on chaos, pushing him to even greater heights.
"Wolves that hunt, a leader's call,
Strength in the pack, yet prone to fall."
Fenrir
Once a beacon of hope, now a lone wolf, he leads a pack that gives him strength, each step he takes followed by the howls of the wild at his command.
"Stars align, energy pure,
A shield, a blade, a step so sure."
Starstrike
A protector bathed in the light of the stars, his presence radiates an otherworldly power, guarding the world from the darkness that looms.
"Songs of warning, visions unclear,
The first to fall when danger is near."
The Canary
A harbinger of things yet to come, his instincts lead him through danger before it even arrives, always one step ahead of fate.
"A rumble deep, the ground obeys,
The earth itself moves to his ways."
Quake
The ground trembles beneath him, his bond with the earth unshakable. He moves like a force of nature, unrelenting and unstoppable.
"In roots and leaves, life she finds,
Nature's strength, in her entwines."
Flora
Life flourishes wherever she goes, her touch breathing growth and renewal into the world, as if nature itself responds to her call.
"In darkness she dwells with deadly grace,
A hidden blade in shadow's embrace."
Nightshade
A figure of the shadows, slipping through the cracks of reality unnoticed. Where she goes, the darkness follows, but by the time you see her, it’s already too late.
And that's it for the alias reveal! Sorry for the delay, exams melted by brain. Anywyas... feel free to ask me questions about this AU... i'm working on some art for this so stay tuned for that... <3

here's a lil quick sketch i did of the LIFE Team logos. some might get edited or tweaked a bit, or changed entirely, i'm not sure yet. anyways... any guesses on which logo is who?
(also, the way these are ordered is the same way the poems are ordered... so, left to right, the frst one goes with the poem "mind over matter..." and so on... so you can already tell which logo and poem is who, and also their powers... i think)
more drawings soon! (this time, of the characters)
But don't expect much, cuz i suck at drawing people.
