The Chess Queens

Half of the cast for the Wonderland AU done!! 🥳🥳🥳 I had a lot of fun with these, I hope I can make it for the rest of the cast without procrastination lol

Some fun facts about these designs:

The ones who are not part of the chess or cards do not have checker patterns (except the Alices)

Despite every Alice having the same color motif, only the (current) official members of the Astral Family have a key in their design.

The Chess Match: Queen's Gambit Declined

My opponent just called upon the Oracles and scattered most of my pieces across space and time. Does anyone know the best counter in this situation?

Is there any analogies to pawn promotion in the Gambit Gang's lore?

Mods are asleep, post imperfect trans pawn metaphor from book on the literature and politics of chess in the late Middle Ages.

Adjournment

I'm not going to do this as a reblog because I don't want to shit up somebody else's notes with pedantry, but the really funny thing about that joke about how the British and the United States can't play chess because the British are missing their Queen and the US is missing two towers is that in chess handicapping, queen odds (i.e., beginning play with no queen) and two rooks (i.e., beginning play with no rooks) are roughly equivalent – that'd actually be a fairly evenly matched game!
