#Mysticon Striker

[mello-t-befan]

The video accompanying this project (turn the subtitles ON ^^)

Among Nelvana's numerous productions and co-productions, not all of them have great ambitions in their animation and/or storytelling quality. And we can see that with our topic : "Mysticons" !

Notable changes : -each Mysticon obtains a spirit that they can fuse with and becomes their weapons; the girls can talk with their spirits by telepathy and once they obtains their own Codex part, the spirits can become their mount (the spirits have their original griffin mounts'names) -Em's totem becomes the Griffin; because given her connection with them in the original series, I think it's a waste that they're not her mystic animal -Zarya's totem becomes the Unicorn; because a wolf is pretty bland among a dragon, a unicorn and a phoenix (she also changes her surname to fit my rewrite) -their masks are not just accessories, they magically alter how people sees them, making them impossible to recognize unless being already in the secret.

Arkayna Goodfey, Mysticon Dragon Mage

In my new scenario, I'd like to make Arkayna even more proud, dignified in her role as princess but also vain and selfish. By becoming a Mysticon with Izzie and regularly heabutting with Zarya, she'd become aware of the world's realities and be more empathetic towards others.

Emerald "Em" Goldenbraid, Mysticon Griffin Knight

In my rewrite, Em wouldn't just be the protagonist's chubby self-effacing best friend. She would also be a huge craftmagic geek, namely the art of making magical objects or weapons (think artificers in D&D). Indeed, she's capable of making useful tinkering projects, repairing damaged devices and seeks to unlock the secret of her own blade's steel. But her passivity and shyness prevent her from truly expressing her talent and passion as she'd like to. Maybe with Topaz, things could change.

Zarya Moonstrike, Mysticon Unicorn Ranger

For my rewrite of the scenario, I don't really know if I'd keep the revelation of Zarya's original backstory (that I won't tell here because SPOILERS). But I'd like to keep her headbutting with Arkayna as much as possible. Which would contrast with their respective spirit who get along very well. I would also make her a gang leader who makes sure that other kids from the slums don't fall into serious crime. Piper would be her second in command, the idea being that they'd be too dependent on each other and would need to distance themselves in order to grow healthily.

Piper Willowbrook, Mysticon Phoenix Striker

In my new version of the scenario, I want to make Piper even more attached to Zarya and her abandonment issues more heavy. As the plot progresses, she'd learn to confide her fears to her friends and become more independent.

How Well The Mysticons Represent Different D&D Classes

As I've mentioned earlier, Mysticons was based on Dungeons and Dragons. Because of this, I will be comparing the Mysticons to Dungeons and Dragons classes. I will only be comparing them to fifth Edition classes, since that's the only edition I'm really familiar with.

MYSTICON RANGER: Mysticon Ranger is actually pretty close to the Ranger class in Dungeons and Dragons. The name's the only one that is a class, and while a ranger doesn't have to use a bow and arrow, that's a common weapon for them to use. Zarya also is shown to have tracking skills, which is a ranger-like trait. While a rogue would work for her as well, due to her life on the streets, rangers work to.

MYSTICON KNIGHT: Mysticon Knight does resemble a class is D&D, but not a fighting one like the name implies. While she does use a sword and shield, due to Em's inventions, I see her more of an artificer. However, if we're just looking at the Mysticon powers themselves, a knight fits well, as a sword and shield are typical knight tools.

MYSTICON DRAGON MAGE: While there are plenty of magic classes in Dungeons and Dragons, there isn't a "mage" class in fifth edition. Two similar ones are wizard and sorcerer. I personally would assign the Sorcerer class to Arkayna, as her royal status and leadership skills implies a high charisma, which sorcerers are known for. She does use a staff, which can be used by spellcasters in Dungeons and Dragons, and she does seem the most likely to use magic.

MYSTICON STRIKER: There is no class called the Striker class. According to one interview by Sean Jara and Matt Fergeson, she was supposed to be the monk. However, one thing monks are known for in Dungeons and Dragons are unnarmed strikes, which Piper (nor any Mysticon) ever use. However, monks are meant to have high dexterity, which certainly fits Piper.

Mysticon Ninjas & Teenage Mysticon Ninja Turtles: By Hero Central: 8/8/2021-27/8/2020:

With my fan fiction Teenage Mysticon Ninja Turtles reaching its climax, I felt it was right to post these fan art pieces. Within the last few chapters the Mysticons stripped of their powers become ninjas under the training of Splinter and the Turtles. Later when the Mysticons regain their powers the Turtles become Mysticons themselves.

Leo: Mysticon Dragon Warrior

Raph: Mysticon Defender

Mikey: Mysticon Seeker

Donnie: Mysticon Alchemist 

I was waiting until I did both designs to post these and here they are. Feel free to check out the story as we come to its end.

In order, Arkanya, Zarya, Piper, and Emerald! Enjoy the content <3

[beautymercurydragon]

In regards to the “send me a character” thing: Piper

OTP: None

BrOTP: GoldenBrook friendship is the BOMB!! (But I don’t like it romantically lol)

Any other ships: …

Their best friend: Is it bad that I like Piper/Em friendship more than Piper/Zarya? Because I like Piper/Em’s bond much more. So those two are BFFs in my headcanon.

Favorite nickname: Pipes or one I saw myself, Firebird (in regards to her avatar animal being a phoenix). That one’s really cute to me.

Favorite AU of them: Hmm. this fandom’s too small for their to be multiple options for me, but I was thinking of making a Emasey Miraculous Ladybug AU where she was supposed to be Chris (Nino’s little brother, Malkayna is DJWifi in this AU). I find it really funny to imagine her with Chris’s behavior, lol. (Look up the Chrismaster episode to see what I picture)

Favorite outfit they wear: I love Piper’s coronation dress in episode three!

Would I date them: No, but I would 100% adopt her as my child. Give this baby love.

First impression: I expected her to be over-the-top and irritating (basically a Gawayne 2.0), but I’m pretty thankful she isn’t. She almost reminds me of a less-crybaby version of Sailor Moon (with brains lmao).

Current impression: PROTECT THIS CHILD. I love her and she’s my second favorite character out of everyone, she’s adorable and extremely underrated.

Hogwarts House: Hmm…. I haven’t seen/read HP yet, but from what I read about traits and my sister’s explanation, Piper would be… I guess a Hufflepuff? XD

Pokemon Starter: I am not into Pokemon LOL. But seeing by Ellie’s blog that she is, I’ll ask her what she thinks soon, haha.

Thanks for the ask!

About the "OC ask meme", I would like to ask for the next three: photo album, mixtape and (for an unkown curious reason) zodiac.

Now those are interesting questions. I’ll assume you’re inquiring for all my OC’s since there’s not one in particular stated here, so I’ll try to do that, or at least the ones I feel are applicable for said questions. So without further ado......

Photo Album

Zorlon & Xalia

I decided to do these two together because their favorite memory is very much the same one, and that’s the day their baby daughter was born. One can only imagine the feeling of happiness these two felt when holding their baby in their arms for the very first time of their lives. Both cried tears of joy back then. Being first timers, parenthood was a bit scary at first, though with that also came excitement, as both have wanted a child for several years after getting married.

Creed

By far his favorite memory was when he poisoned his callus father. That was the moment he truly felt like he was in control of his own destiny, and as such he felt like a big weight was lifted off his shoulders. Not to mention, it felt so good to get his revenge.

Elysia

I’d have to say that Elysia’s fave memory was when she utterly humiliated Em at the battle fair. She had won manny prior, but something about sabatoging Em and then pulling a low prank on her afterwards, causing the whole town to laugh at her soon after, felt very good to Elysia, as it made her feel superior.

Diablo

With our a doubt it was the day he killed one of his bullies back when he was but a lad. This bully picked on him so much merely for being a werewolf, but the straw that broke the camel’s back was when said bully stepped on his tail, which awakened the beats within. Since then, Diablo felt so liberated being able to do something against an oppressor, an therefore had carved his own destiny of being the predator, rather than the prey.

Calvore

Toiling in the netherworld, Calvore doesn’t exactly have happy memories. Ones he enjoys, however, are those of any of the poor souls who are sent to his realm are thereby sentenced to eternal torture.

Charlie & Nixon

Both their happiest memories are the day they got hired as Creed’s henchmen. Both were pretty down in their luck back in the day, so the thought of having a job was very exciting for them, even if it means brutally beating others in the process.

Seragus

Seragus is not typically one to think about which days are his favorites. If he had to choose one, it would be the day he beat Creed at chess. Both heartily laughed that day, and even toasted to the victory.

Mixtape

I’ll admit I’m not exactly a music man, though some music will catch my attention. Consequently, this means I don’t have much music to associate my OC’s with, except.......

Zorlon

I tend to associate him with “Scars” by Kiana, as it involves how pain and regret can remind the individual of someone, which is all too true with Zorlon and the tragedy that befell his beloved Xalia and their baby daughter. He had been mentally scarred that day, and though he’s better at hiding his pain now, not a day goes by when he doesn’t think about them.

Creed

“Asshole” by Helloween describes Creed perfectly. The lyrics profusely emphasize how terrible the person in question is being described in said song, and all descriptions fit Creed to a tee.

Zodiac

To be completely honest, I don’t really think about Zodiacs very often, and as such I’ve never really put much thought into which one’s fit my OC’s best. So, I’ve done this one to the best of my knowledge, so apologies if these seem a bit inconsistent.

Zorlon - Scorpio

Xalia - Pisces

Creed - Leo

Diablo - Virgo

Calvore - Capricorn

Charlie & Nixon - Taurus

Seragus - Capricorn

Thanks for the ask, @certainpeanuteggsempath!!!

In honor of the (probably last) Mysticons graphic novel coming out this week, I’m going to try and type up the Mysticons AU I’ve been kicking around ever since The Edge of Two Morrows aired.  Essentially, what if the Dragon Disk chose four other teenagers to be the new Mysticons?

As in the episode, Tazma hired Mathis instead of Zarya and Piper, but in this universe, she went to the palace with her brother, and between the two of them, they were able to save Arkayna and the queen, but not the king, from Dreadbane.  While Malvaron got the royals (and Em) to safety, the queen tasked Tazma with finding Gawayne before Dreadbane did.  On her way, she finds Proxima, who came along to try and prove herself by protecting the Dragon Disk, only to find it already gone!  Tazma sends her to find Gawayne instead, saying she’ll track down the disk, but really intending to turn back to her shadow mage disguise and get the disk from Mathis for herself.

Meanwhile, Mathis, making his getaway with the Dragon Disk, happened to bump into Gawayne on his first date with Lateensia, at the same time that Proxima caught up to them.  They all end up touching the disk, and bam!  New Mysticons:

Gawayne - Dragon Mage Proxima - Ranger Mathis - Striker Lateensia - Knight

Here things go about the same as the first episode: new Mysticons fight Dreadbane (badly), he retreats, and Mathis makes off with the Dragon Disk in order to collect his pay.  But this time the other Mysticons go after him right away, mostly because of Proxima insisting they do it, and Gawayne knowing his stepmom will never let him hear the end of it if she finds out he let the Dragon Disk get stolen (unaware that it’s his fault Mathis got his hands on it in the first place).  Thus, they get to Mathis before he can hand over the Dragon Disk to the shadow mage, and after her defeat, Tazma appears in her Astromancer robes and acts all surprised about there being new Mysticons.  Not suspecting a thing, Proxima reveals herself to her.  The others drop their Mysticon-ness, too, and Tazma tells Gawayne about his dad.

While Gawayne reacts to the news, Mathis tries to sneak away, but Tazma restrains him, and tells the group that the only way to defeat Dreadbane and undo the spell is to collect the pieces of the codex.  And thus they agree to be a team!

In this version, Tazma is still working with Dreadbane, but doesn’t reveal her hand as early as she did before, pretending to be the Mysticons’ faithful solon, but giving Dreadbane information covertly.  Her true plan is to wait it out until the codex is complete, then take its power for herself.

The first codex piece doesn’t get found nearly as quickly, as it takes quite some time for the group to learn to work together, mainly because they clash over who should be the leader.  Gawayne insists it should be him, since he’s a prince and the Dragon Mage, who was the leader of the OG Mysticons.  Mathis thinks it should be him, since he has the skills of a lifetime of living in the undercity.  Proxima says it should be her because she’s the only one who had any experience using magic in combat before becoming a Mysticon (in a training setting, sure, but it still counts!), and Lateensia doesn’t really care, but if the position is up for grabs, why shouldn’t it be her?

I don’t really know how exactly everything else would play out, but being Mysticons would of course cause them all to grow as people, as they learn to be a team, look out for people besides themselves, and find out what it really means to be a hero.

A few more thoughts:

Lateensia treats the whole thing like a summer internship, even going so far as to say she and Gawayne can’t date because she doesn’t want to get involved with a co-worker.  This isn’t as devastating to Gawayne as it is in the show, since they’d really only had half a date at that point.  He is still bummed out, though, and will occasionally try to woo her during their downtime, to no avail.

Proxima and Mathis bond over being orphans.

The queen figures out that Gawayne is a Mysticon pretty early on, but keeps it to herself.  Thus, she’s even more lenient about him skipping out on his royal duties, which frustrates Arkayna even more than before.  Especially since she’s been saddled with an astromancer bodyguard (her mom claims Gawayne has one, too, but that is little consolation, especially since she’s never seen them).  Said bodyguard is Malvaron, of course.

Em is still griffin wrangler, and plenty of times she’s been almost certain that the Dragon Mage is really Gawayne, but each time she thinks that, she’s all “Gawayne?  The Dragon Mage?  Naaaaaah!”

Zarya and Piper briefly join the Pink Skulls when Dreadbane hires them to get the Dragon Disk, but Piper’s jealousy causes the mission to go awry, meaning they don’t get the disk.  Also, we learn that Mathis’ beef with Zarya partly had to do with her swooping into the undercity a few years ago and winning the hearts of the other orphans with her outlandish stories of her days as a sky pirate, which up until then he’d assumed were completely made up.  (Dreadbane still gets the wolf codex piece, since Tazma, still acting as the Mysticons’ solon, feeds him the information he needs, and since it was eaten by a caveworm, he gets it without the disk.)

That's it, I'm running for Mysticon fandom queen. The three of you that are left, y'all want me to do this? Here are the reasons why I'd make a good candidate-

1. I have tons of fanart in the works, and love making content for it

2. This show ended, like, three? years ago and I'm still not over it

3. I've been here since "Eye for an Eye"

4. No fandom drama on my watch

5.Willing to talk about it 25/8, no can ever shut me up about it

6: My user is literally a refrence to Zarya (It's a long story)

7: Because why not? I'm bored, and it would be something I could put in my bio

Tell me if you guys agree
