"You're right, Bodb, buddy," Matholwch whispered, even though I hadn't heard Bodb say anything.  "We best not disturb Aunt-Momma til we know for sure which meddlin' scallywag it is.  Now play it cool, an' don't let on you know he's here.  Who do you figure it is?  Glenholm Webb, or Estvan Silverbrush?"
Tumblr media
"It's neither of them, you morons!" I yelled.  "This is Prince Adler, and I can't believe you've been here this whole time, setting up businesses and making yourselves comfortable while I'm trapped in Albric Tor just a few miles away!"
"Oh," Matholwch stammered.  "Well, the thing is, we didn't think -"
"That's right, you didn't think!" I berated him.  How dare he?  "Never mind that it was due to my actions that you lot are free, and you owe me a huge favor, the hugest you've ever owed anyone, EVER.  You idiots are too dumb to fathom what that kind of responsibility entails.  You wouldn't know common elvish decency if you turned around and stubbed your toe on it!  Even if it were possible to somehow combine the two of you, you'd still have less than half a brain!  You boys are useless, absolutely useless!  Where is the Duchess?  I need to talk to an adult!"
Tumblr media
To my amazement, Matholwch began to cry.  He clutched his brother-cousin for solace and blubbered up toward me, "TH-THAT AIN'T NICE, YER HIGHNESS.  YOU D-DON'T GOTTA BE SO MEAN.  ME AN' BODB CAN'T HELP IT."
"Oh come on, you big baby," I scoffed.  "I've heard the Duchess say worse things to you."
"AUNT-MOMMA DOES IT CUZ SHE LOVES US," Matholwch wailed.  "WHEN YOU SAY IT, IT JUST SOUNDS UGLY."
"What in tarnation is all that ruckus?" a familiar voice called from another room.  "Are you boys CRYIN'??  What in the Netherhells is a-goin' on in there?"
"P-PRINCE ADLER IS SCRYIN' ON US AN' SAYIN' THE AWFULEST THINGS, AUNT-MOMMA, MA'AM," Matholwch sobbed.
"HE WHAT???" the Duchess bellowed.
Tumblr media
Suddenly a terrific Magickal force pushed me back, out of the foundry, out of Percysthorpe, and all the way out of the tree-shaped crack in the scrying tower's scryspace.
I lay on the floor for several minutes.  I felt dizzy and my head was throbbing.
What just happened?

Fan Dragon Month Series One: Alice in Wonderland

Day Four: The Dormouse
Male Fae - Ice Unusual
Chocolate/Umber/X
Tapir/Eye Spots/Basic
Lore Under Cut!
The third member of The Tea Party trio, Dormouse is by far the most “normal” of the circus members. A swordsman by trade, Dormouse spends his days patrolling the circus’s border, and his nights running “security” during shows. He thinks himself a fine, noble hero, but is really no more than an odd little man with a sword. This morning, he has found a herald at the gates, and he comes with news of a very important visitor…

Design Notes
Dormouse’s outfit was inspired by the classic “Three Musketeers” look
If you think this doesn’t fit with his original personality, you’d be correct! When designing the outfit, I mistook him for Mallymkun, the white mouse who takes his place in the Burton film. She does have her own design later on though!
He honestly has my favorite outfit in this series, except for maybe the Knave

Fan Dragon Month Series One: Alice In Wonderland
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Day Ten: Alice
Female Pearlcatcher - Nature Common
Cornflower/Midnight/Orca
Giraffe/Butterfly/Underbelly
Lore Under Cut!
Ever since she was a hatchling, Alice knew she was meant for something more. She grew up on a farm somewhere deep within the Viridian Labyrinth, where only The Gladekeeper’s most dedicated tread, often looking for a place to perform The Exaltation Ritual and ascend her ranks. That’s why, when Alice spotted the pale Mirror, dripping with Plague magic and a sense of worry, hurrying through the dense undergrowth, she followed him. Just when she thought she’d lost him, Alice fell, down, down, down, so far down she thought she’d never see The Lightweaver’s gift again. When she finally stopped falling, she found herself somewhere in a clearing, nothing like the place she called home, but still strangely familiar. There in front of her, gently turning her pearl in his claws, was the Spiral she would come to know as The Hatter.
Now, as she found herself rappelling down The Red Castle’s walls, Mallymkun in tow, she thought of falling down that hole after The White Rabbit, the wind rushing through her mane and fear in her heart. But this time it would be different. That night, helping The Cheshire Brothers pack their belongings, Alice heard the story of The Sky Warrior, a long-prophesied dragon who would be sent to take down The Red Queen and finally restore peace to Wonderland. It was then and there she knew what she was meant to do, and with The Red Kingdom now fully aware of her presence, there was no time to waste.

Design Notes
This version of Alice is based on her black-haired appearance from American McGee’s Alice*, instead of her classic blonde look
I have not yet decided what happens to Alice’s pearl, or even really how to handle it. Currently it’s with The Hatter’s things, probably in a little labeled bag or something.
* Disclaimer: I no longer support American McGee due to his recent actions involving AI and the treatment of the members in his Discord server. That being said, Alice and it’s sequel are amazing and underrated games that I encourage people to check out.

Day Eight: Mallymkun
Female Fae - Earth Rare
XXX White
Petals/Peregrine/Underbelly
Lore Under Cut!
Ever since loosing her mother as a young hatchling, Mallymkun knew she wanted to join The Red Queen’s army to protect the citizens of Wonderland from its many dangers. She trained with some of the best in her village, and when the time came, she made her way to the castle posthaste. The thought of a Fae in the army was amusing to many of the dragons in The Red Court, and they really let only let her in because they thought she could provide entertainment to the camp for a few days before running home scared. Much to everyone’s surprise, Mallymkun stuck through and made it all the way to the other side of training, even being awarded with her own tiny replica of The Card Solider’s uniform.
But that pride was short lived. Mallymkun set out with her battalion on her first mission and sunrise, and by sunset, she vowed to destroy the very thing she once dreamed of becoming. Her desertion did not go unnoticed, and instead of shooting to the top of her class, she shot to the top of their most wanted list. Now word has reached her ears of the Sky Warrior’s return and subsequent capture, Mallymkun has set her heart on the biggest (and hopefully last) mission of her career, but she’ll need the help of an old friend to pull it off…

Design Notes
In the movie, Mallymkun uses a sewing pin gifted to her by The Mad Hatter as a sword, and luckily for me, the canes are perfect!
Mallymkun is the version of The Dormouse used in the 2010 Burton film. Her looks were so different from the original I mistook her for an entirely different character
The Card Solider uniform mentioned above only really consists of the coat, kilt, boots, and tail tangle. The hip roses and the wing decorations are Mallymkun’s own touches

Day Seven: The Knave of Hearts
Male Obelisk - Water Rare
Dust/Oilslick/X
Falcon/Current/X
Lore Below Cut!
A man of many names, The Knave of Hearts has been around for as long as the Queens themselves. He was one of the first to join their quest for peace after losing his family to one of the many beasts of Wonderland, and in the early years of the alliance his dedication to the cause caught their eye. He worked closely with The Red Queen to build up her army, his knowledge of structure and strategy an invaluable ressource in many battles. However, it was no secret that he much preferred to spend time with The White Queen, helping her build libraries and gardens for the citizens of the kingdom to feel safe in. The White Queen found herself falling deeply in love with the Obelisk, and he almost certainly returned those feelings.
Legend states that when the two announced their engagement to The Red Queen, she flew into a frenzy, vowing then and there to seize control of Wonderland. When The Red Army arrived to challenge The White Queen, The Knave of Hearts sprung into action, bringing down many before losing his eye. When he turned to his lover for assistance, she had fled, and he, injured physically and emotionally, surrendered immediately. To this day, he works closely with The Red Queen as her own personal bounty hunter, seeking out all who choose to disobey…

Design Notes
This guy is based specifically off of the character from the 2010 Burton film
The Knave card is now commonly known as the Jack card
He is one of the few characters who’s eyes actually match a movie character. It took me a ridiculously long time to finally settle on Water Rare, only to immediately cover it with an eye patch
He has my favorite overall design in the AU
