Egyptian Baul (Baur) Zigvolt 👍

[lilliekun]

Hi tumblr, hi twisted wonderland fandom, 'tis be my first post on this website that I never thought I'd make but given the recent reveals about chapter 7 I HAD to make one

Spoilers alert maybe ?

So they apparently revealed Sebek's grandpa's name to be something along the lines of "Bauru"

Bauru seems to be a shorter version of the name Baurusuchus, which is a genus of crocodilians from the late cretaceous

And, also, it happens to be one ancestor of another genus of ancient crocodilian, called Sebecus

[pyrpaw]

How about the Mc meeting sebeks parents? I love those kinds of fics

dude-insainly real for that tbh, I especially love the whole "doting mother" ones (also, because Sebek's name (Sobek) is as Egyptian God, I gave his parents Egyptian names as well(specifically ancient Egyptian makes because they're pretty as hell) )

(contents: (name) is said to be a human... and Mrs zigvolt loves humans, Sebek is said to have gotten bullied for being only half fae as a kid

A human!

Sebek's parents were thrilled to hear he was bringing a friend home for spring break, I mean he's never gone out of his way to make any friends... and with the fact people would talk about him being half fae. And the excitement doubled when they saw you and realized you were human! Do you know how much character development for him that is?

On the other hand, you were silently freaking out about going to meet Sebek's parents, because if it took Sebek that long to warm up to you, what about his parents?! You're sure they'll hate you.

But, once you both stepped foot into Sebek's home, you were immediately bombarded by a very tall fae with long green hair. "Ahh! A human!" The woman who you can only assume is Sebek's mother exclaimed as she grabbed your hands. "a-ah! Mother-" Sebek exclaimed with embarrassment littering his face. The woman started pinching your cheeks lightly as she smiled and spoke to you. "what's your name dear? are you good friends with Sebek? he isn't being mean to you is he?" She asked as she kept squishing your cheeks, while you nervously spoke up.

"uhm-i'm (name) Mrs Zigvolt, yes we are good friends-.. uh-no he's not being mean" You mumbled out as best you could with her squishing your cheeks. "oh! Please just call me Mutemwia, and this is my husband Rameses" She happily said and motioned over to her husband who was standing behind her with a polite wave and smile. "ah~ I'm so happy Sebek brought back a human!" Mutemwia exclaimed as she cupped her cheeks. Her husband came up behind her and put a hand on her shoulder. "now, don't frighten them too much darling" He chuckled as Mutemwia's eyes widened slightly. "right! human manners" She smiled and looked back at you with a much calmer expression.

"I do hope you'll enjoy your stay, I'm sure Sebek will gladly show you around Briar valley" She spoke, much calmer, and right as Sebek was going to make a comment about "a human in Briar valley", his mother quickly looked at him with a stern gaze which made him immediately shut up. ".... fine" He mumbled and crossed his arms, pouting like a child. Mutemwia was clearly not happy with his response and the two started bickering, Mutemwia claiming he was being rude and Sebek trying to defend himself.

As you silently watched the two bicker,Rameses came up and put a hand on your shoulder. "Don't worry, they're always like this... Sebek is just like his mother" He chuckled, causing a small smile to adorn your face. Rameses looked at you with a caring expression and spoke. "... It's nice to see Sebek bringing back a human, he seems to talk about you quite a bit" He smiled, which apparently Sebek overheard and jolted his head over quickly with flushed cheeks. "Dad!" He whined in embarrassment, before going back to bickering with his mother once he scolded him to not disrespect his father.

... well.... your spring break is looking pretty fun already

[k-looking-glass-house]

What if Crowley uses "bird" vocabulary like Floyd with his marine nicknames....

Yes he's a crow ... Just imagine if he sees us as biiiiird~

Of course it's just my point of view, I am not a professional in ornithology, you might have your own idea about this one and I would definitely want to hear about it!

Mostly they are birds we could see in my country...

Let's go:

Ombrorio

Grim(m) -> Grey catbird (grey like Grimm, striped wings and can make cat noise....yes)

Yuu(sona) -> Sparrow (Crowley would definitely call Yuu a little sparrow....)

Night Raven College staff

Sam -> Painted bunting (small, vibrant, colorful, a rare sight to view)

Mozus Trein -> Eurasian skylark (classy, well known literally a french song about this bird "he sung it to Lucius as a kitten")

Ashton Vargas -> Pheasant (....the irony as his Disney counterpart is an hunter, but vibrant color)

Divus Crewel -> Great spotted woodpecker (literally screaming I am Cruella, fashion red, black and white bird)

Heartslabyul

Ace Trappola -> Nothern cardinal (red... funky feather style, fights their own mirror reflection...)

Deuce Spade -> Blue slaty bunting

Riddle Roseheart -> Robin (Hi Ciel Phantomhive...I mean Kuroshitsuji ref but look that little red face)

Trey Clover -> Nightingale (sorry Trey...Crowley is implying you can either sing...or can't...but you do have a perfect voice!)

Cater Diamond -> Pyrrhula (I love this little bird too....they became very rare by now, look this tiny orange one)

(Heartslabyul are literally the birds of Aurora in 2d "Sleeping beauty")

Savannaclaw

Jack Howl -> Owl (....this one is pretty obvious)

Leona Kingscholar -> "Savanna" eagle (yes... definitely a strong bird)

Ruggie Bucchi -> Speckled mousebird (listen to that bird you'll understand, also....that feather hairstyle!)

Octavinelle

Jade Leech -> Emperor penguin (tall...classy ...can't fly pfff)

Azul Ashengrotto -> Nothern gannet (verrryyy big, analystic-smart one, can't walk on land...)

Floyd Leech -> Snare penguin (unique appareance, multiple various vocalized sounds)

Scarabia

Kalim Al Asim -> White falcon (precious, royal bird in a "maybe similar related country in our world")

Jamil Viper -> Red Parrot (or macaw) (obviously because of Iago)

Pomefiore

Epel Felmier -> Snow bunting (a "petite robuste" bird living in snow)

Vil Schoenheit -> Peacock (beautiful, handsome literally The Evil Queen's bird)

Rook Hunt -> Mallard (another irony for an hunter...but this bird is beautiful I mean it, and is found everywheerrre (like a stalker bird ha ha))

Ignihyde

Idia Shroud -> Blue jay (blue, black and blue stripes, funny enough the bird is stated to be noisy ha ha, Idia can be supah noisy sometimes too when setting his boundaries, GG Idia!)

Ortho Shroud -> Eurasian blue tit (a little fluffy bird, blue and yellow doing a very cute melodious sound, I love watching them...)

Diasomnia

Sebek Zigvolt -> Egyptian plover (yes....the bird on the crocodile's back...yes)

Malleus Draconia -> Great eared nightjar (it's a dragon bird....look at him)/I could have chosen Casoar too... but nope...

Lilia Vanrouge -> Anna's hummingbird (it's small, pink and changes color with light...like his hairs)

Silver -> Nine-primaried oscines (a cute lovely bird in our woods, pink and blue)

Thanks National Geographic....

It's just pure fanon brainstorming... I'm sorry...

bird photos were mostly took from "Wikipedia"

[yuurei20]

When Sebek enters a battle, he says, "I'll swallow you whole." What does that mean? Where does it come from?

This is specific to the EN translation seen in the text box.

Hello hello!! Thank you for this question! 🐊

Lilia explains that Sebek is "known throughout Briar Valley for his gargantuan appetite," and we receive several reminders throughout the game about how much he eats:

Sebek talks about having "only three extra servings at lunchtime" and both Silver and Deuce comment on him being a big eater (Silver calls him a bottomless pit).

He also has lines about needing "something with meat" and, to the prefect, he says that he is always hungry no matter how much he eats: "You and Grim are starting to look pretty appetizing, you know..."

As for why Sebek has this character train, he explains that his mother, "has some of the most potent occlusal force in our family--ah, that is, biting strength. It's a Zigvolt trademark."

While his father is a human, Sebek's mother is "a creature of the night--that is, a nocturnal fae," but there might be more to his lineage.

Floyd, Rook and Leona all refer to Sebek as a crocodile. This may be hinting that his family is a crocodile-based sort of nocturnal fae, much in the same way that Lilia seems to be based upon bats?

And crocodiles can't chew, they can only swallow food whole.

And all of this may have something to do with why he says "I'll swallow you whole" before battles! It is a literal translation of his original line :>

Bonus: Amazing artist Egophiliac has a delightful comic about Sebek's human dentist father meeting his nocturnal fae mother, which ends in a drawing of a crocodile and one of those little birds that clean crocodile teeth, which is 1) adorable, and 2) a great theory for why Sebek's father was made into a dentist.

Colloquially known as "crocodile birds," they are also called "Egyptian plover" birds.

And "Sebek" (also called Sobek or Sobki) is an ancient Egyptian deity depicted with a crocodile head who was said to have eaten at least part of Osiris.

So it seems that ancient Egypt, crocodiles and eating people are all being woven into Sebek's character, culminating in Sebek using "I'll swallow you whole" as a battle cry :>

[blues824]

Could I request Ace, Leona, Sebek, and Jamil with an s/o who's like the Egyptian god of war, deserts, storms, disorder, violence, and chaos, Set?

Egyptian mythology is just as (if not more) confusing than Greek and Roman mythology, but I’ve always loved learning about it.

Gender-neutral reader. Animal head on Set is a helmet instead here.

TW: Toxic relationship… kinda???

Ace Trappola

You both are chaotic bad, to say the least, and a headache for Riddle.

The only difference is that you have much more power than he does

Also, you have an animal helmet in the shape of an unspecified animal that you couldn’t even explain

You also wear a lot more gold in your dorm uniform than he did, as it was a symbol of you being a deity

Ace was your first experience in a healthy relationship

However, whenever you both fight, you create a huge storm in anger, and Grim has to rush over to Heartslabyul and beg the first year to apologize

In the same way that you protected Ra from Apophis, you protect your oh-so-lovely boyfriend from trouble

The only thing that you didn’t do was help him during Riddle’s overblot, as you were thriving in the chaos and disorder of it all

Leona Kingscholar

The only time I can see you both getting along is when you helped him and Ruggie sabotage the competition

After all, you are a bringer of chaos, and seeing the other teams lose their shit amused you

If we are going back to the beginning, you used your helmet to keep your anonymity 

You stepped on his tail that day, and when he yelled at you, you summoned your staff and demanded he bow to you

That started a rivalry between the two of you, as you both were cast aside for the king’s son to be the heir

The difference is that you can’t be the ruler of the gods, and Leona can’t be the king of a measly kingdom

Anyways, the only time where you both can actually be perceived as a couple is when you both are seen cuddling with each other and taking a nap instead of attending class

You did not help during his overblot, as you called it payback

Jamil Viper

Could you possibly not make it so hot in the dorm?

All the people are struggling with the heat, especially when Kalim was forcing everyone into the extra practice time

You could see right through his bullshit, and because of years fighting with your nephew, you were able to escape Scarabia rather easily

However, you did not help the Scarabia dorm. It’s their canon event.

Also, you knew what would happen if you didn’t interfere, and you loved the possible chaos in the upcoming days.

When he overblots, however, you could see that the Octavinelle trio and Kalim did not deserve this, so you used your powers to fight

One infirmary visit after Jamil passed out was enough to get you and him talking about how you knew what he was going through 

After all, you both have had to step out of the spotlight because someone close to you was present (even though you killed that someone, his wife resurrected him)

Sebek Zigvolt

Totally didn’t freak out about how it was so disrespectful to be more powerful than the great Waka-sama

Even though it was out of your control as you couldn’t choose who your parents were

Sebek was a stickler for the rules, meaning he was your complete opposite, and he absolutely loathed it

You were overly confident, but he made it a point to point out that you couldn’t even inherit the throne without Horus getting in your way, thus you could never equate to His Royal Highness.

That really got on your nerves, so you once caused a storm to reign over Diasomnia, and Sebek spent hours repenting for his sins because he thought Malleus was angry

Everyone laughed because they could tell that the storm clouds were not of the prince’s doing, but rather yours

The angry crocodile then goes to you, questioning your audacity, and you’re just standing there like ‘I killed my own brother and this is what gets you mad?’

As to why you would date this man, nobody knows, but it’s very funny because you both go head-to-head very often

[frie-ice]

This Disney Twisted Wonderland collage is par of a series that showcase the parallel comparisons between the original TWST characters with the classic Disney villain characters (or trademark items) that they are based on upon and inspired from. In which has those Twisted Wonderland characters be seen as the TWST counterparts of those Disney characters. I got the idea for this series after seeing Tumblr posts of the TWST Housewardens and Vice-Housewardens being featured beside the original Disney characters that they represent, and I didn't want to limit myself to the Dorm Heads and overblot victims, but also for the other TWST characters. That's why I didn't leave out Lillia Vanrouge, Sebek Zigvolt and Silver (like I did with Jack Howl and Ortho Shroud). Although it has been clear that Malleus Draconia and the Diasomnia dorm are modelled after Maleficent, who the other three are based upon is a bit of a mystery.

From what I read on Google, they say that Lilia's bat motif is a reference to dragon!Maleficent, Sebek is of Maleficent's thorn and lightning magic and Silver's tiredness is a hit to the spindle of the Spinning Wheel that put Sleeping Beauty to sleep. Spoilers from chapter 7, however, has me question these claims and I don't really trust the source that this information came from. In case I turn out to be wrong and there might be some truth to this, I featured the three in the same collage to be safe. It is also why I dubbed the collage as "Magic of Diasomnia."

If you want my opinion, I believe that Lilia might have been inspired from one of Maleficent's goons, the same with Sebek. The reason for this thought is due to face of the goblin-like goon being part of Lilia's Pop Music club wear and Lilia was a knight who served the royal Draconia family. The same with Sebek's grandfather, and there is Maleficent goon that has a crocodile-like face. Sebek is also the name of an Egyptian god with a crocodile face, unless it is only Grandpa Zigvolt alone who is based on that Sleeping Beauty character.

Another group is saying that Lilia's character could be a reference to the bat style of Maleficent's throne, or that part of his character is drawn from the Three Good Fairies. Since Silver has some Aurora-like traits, not only does be nod off and animals are drawn to him, but it is mentioned that Lilia raised him a prince. If you take a look at the later parts of chapter 7, you'll see that the story of how Lilia came to be Silver's father paradelles with the 2014 Maleficent film. There was also a reference to the Three Good Fairies in a chat between Silver and Lilia about Lilia's cooking, from how he placed candles on a cake when it was still being made and put eggs in the bowl without taking the eggs out of their shells. Along with Lilia's groovy Platinum Jacket card having him looking at a portrait of the three fairies in question.

If you don't think any of these are the case, please share your thoughts and keep them kind. I'm still new to the TWST fandom, and still learning about it.

[mylittlesecrethaven]

I've Been Thinking About TWST Names: Diasomnia

I'm in a mood right now, so let's hope this goes well.

Malleus Draconia:

Malleus - Whatever the fuck this is on the wiki: The name Malleus could potentially be a reference to the well-known treatise on witchcraft titled "Malleus Maleficarum". Also, could literally just be a basic reference to Maleficent.

Draconia - Dragon. Get it? Drac? Could also mean devil in a few languages, but that's ok.

Lilia Vanrouge

Lilia - There's nothing on the wiki for his name, so I'm going off of basic research. In Latin, and some Greek, the name is derived from Lily, which means night. Fits him pretty well, imo.

Vanrouge - I didn't research this, but I'm pretty sure rouge means red in French. So his name literally means either Red Lily, like the flower, or Red Night, which makes me think of a vampire.

Silver:

Ima be completely honest with you, I really do think Silver was named completely off of his hair color. Not a single clue as to why Silver was picked game-making wise, but I just like that Lilia probably just went off his hair color.

Sebek Zigvolt:

Sebek - There's info on the wiki, but I think I know his name pretty well. I've studied a lot of Egyptian myths, and I think I remember there being a god of crocodiles being named something close to Sebek. (edit from later after some research - His name was Sobek, and he's just a crocodile deity, not a god of crocodiles.)

Zigvolt - Cause he's got lightning powers. And lightning zigs. And zags. Plus, I'm pretty sure the lightning's just a callback to Maleficent.

[intern-seraph]

sebek's parents are a reference to nile crocodiles and egyptian plovers' (reported, not recorded) mutualistic behavior in which the plover (aka papa zigvolt) cleans the teeth of the crocodile (aka mama zigvolt) and THAT'S why he's specifically a dentist AND why it's explicit canon that mama zigvolt's side of the family is from the sunset savannah

[ignihyde-resident]

Electra Heart Yuri!?

(Pls I love this ship too much for them to have such little content)

[honeynclove]

part two of me n @lowcallyfruity making hcs for twst characters older siblings this time Sebek’s older siblings have been forcibly named and designed. I’ll leave some notes on Khepri bc he’s my character <3

— Khepri Zigvolt named after an Egyptian god like Sebek and Baul who’s commonly represented with scarabs graduated nrc with ace’s brother and lives in an apartment with him was in scarabia in his time at nrc and was the dorm leader for one year comes off very aloof and serious but he’s actually very chill a stoner probably idk has the same hair color as Baul teases sebek but genuinely loves him and his younger siblings so much haha sebek my ears are pointed and yours aren’t might be engaged to rooks brother, might be aroace, maybe both how do we feel about rook and sebek at the same wedding discuss baul meeting his grandsons human passing bf 😨😨😨 (he’s actually fully beastman it’s just his parents were two different types so it cancels out) he’s a freelance journalist :] was more nervous telling his family he wanted to live outside of briar valley then he was telling them he’s queer

[juno-of-wonderland]

MASTERLIST

if i just quote and the character didn't do any kind of action, it won't appear here and I WILL JUST do cute things with Ortho and Cheka (no aging to relationship or child x child relationship)

Pretty out of the blue question but do you think Sebek's whole family have religious or mythical names? Or is his dad the only one with a normal name?

Sebek's named after the Egyptian deity Sobek and Baul is (probably) named after Baal which is the name of another deity and a demon.

Hello Anonie 🌺🌸🌷

I think this would be a better question for @estcaligo. I learn alot of sebek and zigvolt facts from them ☺️💞

I think that most of the names have some type of symbolism when it comes to twst.

I know I’ve read about Sebek and Baul having similar names to gods, and with the way they changed Baul to Baur in EN, you could tell it was on purpose for the prehistoric croc connections 🤔

I would assume that even Mrs. Zigvolt and the rest of her children would have a connection to gods. After all, some fae are worshipped in myths and we have seen the high regard Sebek has for Malleus and Lilia too. So this could be a tie in to that. 🤔
