#The Rat King Chronicles

[yesthefandomfreakblr]

Gorger's laugh wasn't an evil laugh, it was a "What the fuck LMAOOO" laugh. Like. Ripred showed up all big and bad with the grandiose warrior of prophecy, who is a small child. Said "Think we can take them, you and I?"

And the kid FUCKING JUMPED OVER GORGER AND TOOK OFF FOR HIS LIFE. JUST NOPED OUT OF THERE. BOLTED LIKE A JACKRABBIT. GONE.

I'd be howling, that's funny as fuck.

[haveihitanerve]

i hear everyone talking bout luxa and gregor and gregor and lapblood and ares being war but what about Luxa and Ripred? What about them?

What about "you're too mean to die"?

What about "he is too rotten to die"?

What about "even as a baby she was pushy"?

What about "i understand now why we were placed with ripred"?

What about ripreds pups dying in the Garden and him being unable to stop it from happening, so he becomes a jaded warrior who works with those responsible for his pups death to get peace?

What about Luxa's parents dying due to rats and her being unable to stop it from happening, so she becomes a jaded warrior who bonds with a rat for pups to get peace?

What about how Luxa and Gregor are now Ripred's pups and what about how Ripred now has pups, now has a reason to keep going, to keepy fighting?

What about how Luxa now has a father again, after so many years of not having one, of relying on Vikus, who knows what to say but is always ready for peace and not so willing to fight, when Ripred knows when to fight?

What about them taking the spots in each others hearts that rats/humans took from them and are now family and swear to be that for each other always and worked together for the peace so no one else ever has to suffer the way they do?!?!?!

I am so curious about how and why you headcanon Ripred as trans?? Is it comfort projection???

It’s a little less comfort projection and a little more “wouldn’t this be funny if” type of projection. But yea it’s mostly projection. Also he’s got a sick scar on his face so why not a sick scar on his chest too yknow.

Not that rats have a need for top surgery. Which is a sentence I didn’t expect to type today. But the idea of ripred with badass top scars is cool to me

"An implication is hardly a statement of fact, sire."

Oh, Rat, I love you! ❤️ You absolutely delight me. 😂

[operationslipperypuppet]

hi! i recently subscribed to the pateron, and im a little intimidated by all of the extra content available, lol. in your opinion, what are some of the funniest short rest / dungeon court / mixed bag episodes to start with? (if anyone else also has their fave eps to share please do)

oh wonderful! welcome to the best stupid show(s) money can buy.

i’m gonna operate under the assumption you’re caught up on main feed eps but if i suggest a short rest for an episode you haven’t listened to, definitely hit the episode first.

these are just off the top of my head with ones i can remember what they are, i may come up with more later lol

short rests:

i think short rests 99 and 100 should actually be required listening for everyone, they’re fucking earth shattering. start there.

the one for 70 is stupid and reveals how they almost lost the episode so that’s a good one.

c3e22 has one of the most insane short rests in retrospect. and c3e41 also has a bonkers short rest. they talk about santa manscaping in your bathroom. the episode came out in august. i wept.

c2e41’s campaign wrap up short rest also is a good time and gives good insights on the campaign.

the short rest for the can they kill it is the origin of crabster. 77 has a rose before noon. 91 ends with jake saying something so insane it ruins me.

the short rest for caldwells frooze your own adventure also slaps. the wilson brothers are there.

the brussels hookup is another 8bbc short rest that’s so dumb and beautiful.

c3e54 has them all hyped up on too much caffeine after a mixed bag and talking about jumping off decks onto frozen lakes and landing on one boob and one butt cheek. i wish i was kidding. it’s incredible.

dungeon courts:

i’m mostly gonna highlight patreon dungeon courts with the assumption you’ve listened to the corresponding main feed eps.

king robert can klump ft. ally beardsley. the flintstones costume fun around the house. you don’t know what that means but it’s. something.

a little place called mangia’s. murph breaks down. caldwell loses it. jake turns to google.

yuncle ft. jasper william cartwright. rats ride loose and your yuncle is power hungry.

the video dungeon courts are great, you can see murph lose it.

bird jail ft. zac oyama. actually anything with zac oyama. it’s great.

table rattlers ft. jeremy cobb. i don’t remember what happens exactly but it’s great.

the dm’s judge ft. lou wilson and zac oyama. absolutely iconic bench on this one.

mixed bags:

mixed bag tier my beloved!! so many are so good!

the whole blazing babe chronicles. not enough people know there was a second hot boy summer campaign that’s available on the mixed bag. caldwell spills half a corona on his character sheet. it’s a dry july and the boys are Not on the same page about it. love is love is love returns.

the biggest loreser is new but damn if it isn’t impeccable. warning: the fred flintstone noise is fucking LOUD

all the taste tests (energy drinks, m&ms, and gamer energy drinks). jake tries an expired products. jake later forgets to buy peanut m&ms while emily decides she can taste what color an m&m is. murph gets hyped on caffeine and has to take a break resulting in one of the most insane short rests to date. listen to the short rest first, it’s funnier that way.

if you can listen to live shows, (the sound is sometimes challenging) i recommend those. great starting point is the melbourne one from last year, i laughed so much the first time i heard it. “i was a lurking actor. that’s a union job!” also the boston dungeon court did hit the main feed but started as a mixed bag and i was there so i want to shout it out.

emily’s winter solstice one shot!! brennan and siobhan are there and it’s creepy and truly so fun.

both dungeons and dragons movies. jake and emily gaslight murph. they talk about a truly terrible set of films. there’s someone called grape lady that is a highlight.

both spilltaculars. at times a bit cringe, but it’s fun to hear other people’s failures sometimes because then you feel better about yourself. plus they make up a judgement scale that is different every time.

spellcheck! the game show that’s kinda sweeping the nation. or was. it’s fun.

that’s long (oops) and all i can think of off the top of my head. if people have other faves, share them for new patreon people!

also, my last bit of advice is to join the streams if you can. jake’s stream is for the short rest tier and above and caldwells is for the mixed bag tier and above. they’re wild. we had caldwell drawing everyone in crocs for like 6 months (it’s arguably why we’re getting the jibbitz). sometimes you get tucker lore. (tucker, the fictional man jake’s wife is cucking him with.) they’re grand.

The Crawler's Language

So I'm not a linguist by academic specialty but I am bilingual and fascinated by languages and every time I reread the Underland Chronicles I think about language and especially the Crawler's style of repetitive speech.

All of the species in the Underland have different speech patterns. The bats speak rarely, quietly, and in short sentences because it is physically difficult for them. The spinners speak through vibrations. The rats as a species are associated with humor, they're most likely to use sarcasm and constantly make jokes. But when all of these species do speak, they use the grammar and syntax common to human Underland English.

The exception is the crawlers, who have a distinct verbal quirk, saying things like: "Smells what, so good, smells what?" In this essay I am making basically two arguments:

The crawlers word order is completely normal for Underland English.

Often, when discussing the crawlers, the book narration will make a point of Gregor or others having to mentally re-order sentences to understand the bugs. But if you take out the repetition, Crawler sentences become things like:

"Smells what so good?" "Be she the princess?" "Hates us, the Overlander?" "Unless this be not the Cradle"

And this order that goes Verb-Object or Verb-Pronoun is not unusual for standard Underland English. Human and other characters throughout the books say things like: "Stop you. Stay you. Slow your hearts." (Ripred, Book 1) "Meet you Mareth and Perdita" (Dulcet, Book 1) "Gather us here for we must discuss" (Vikus, Book 1)

It's even baked in to the standard Underlander farewell, "Fly you high".

So the crawlers are speaking correct sentences in Underland English, just repeating the first phrase at the end. Which brings me to my second argument.

The repetition serves a grammatical function

In paying attention to the crawler's speech, I found a pattern. The repetition is not present in every sentence. Crawlers often make simple declarative statements without repetition:

"You look much like but smell not like" "Temp will share her food with me" "Rats give many fish"

The repetition specifically happens with questions:

"Ride you, ride you? Run you, run you?" "Give you five baskets, give you?" "You so say, you?"

Even Vikus takes on this particular grammatical feature. When speaking to the Crawlers, he says "We will give four baskets, and one for thanks" but later asks "Take us to your king, take us?" when asking a question.

There are exceptions to this, but to me they seem to be in cases of emphasis or explicit confirmation:

"Only the Princess, Temp serves, only the Princess" "Hate warmbloods, cutters do, hate warmbloods"

I have no idea if this was Suzanne Collins intention, but for me personally, it reminds me of how questions are structured in American Sign Language. In ASL, a question is indicated by raising or lowering the eyebrows. Signs for question words like who/what/where/why exist, but aren't always necessary. One of the structures common with ASL is to put or repeat the question word at the end, so you can sign a longer phrase or sentence normally, and only have to worry about the question facial expression for the last word. Bill Vicars at Lifeprint/ASL University has a more in-depth explanation, comparing it to English questions structured as "You go to [X university], don't you?" or "You like engineering, do you?" But basically, in ASL, a perfectly grammatically correct way to ask if someone is Deaf is to sign: YOU DEAF YOU?

It is also worth exploring why, in my opinion, the crawlers are the only species who have this visible difference to the audience, even though all species are speaking English as a second language. And at a meta-level, it contributes to the basic assumption that the crawlers are dumber than the other species. Gregor has the most to adjust to, but even long after he's accepted that the Underlanders aren't primitive, and bats/rats are intelligent, he still has a kind but condescending outlook on the crawlers. And even other insect species (like the fireflies) look down on them. Having the crawlers speak differently from anyone else emphasizes their alienation from all other species in the Underland. And it reminds me of how some accents or dialects, like AAVE, are associated with stupidity or assumed to be "incorrect" English when they have perfectly valid and functional structures and meaning.

Wish rewrite ✨ pt.3

This is the third part of my rewrite of "Wish." The first part is here and the second is here.

Things are starting to heat up now. Hold on tight!

Finding proof: Asha and Star sneak into the castle the same way she did last time (him using his abilities greatly simplifies this particular break-in lol) and she takes him to the room that’s holding the wishes. He floats up towards them to get a closer look, staring at each almost lovingly. In contrast to how a few days ago, she would impatiently tell him to focus whenever he was distracted, she gently tells him they need to focus. After some searching for evidence, (including a humorous bit where Star finds a dumb waiter and Asha says “Well, that would have made things SO MUCH easier the last time I was here”), he finds a secret passage to another room. The two investigate and find it to be full of books, scrolls, and artifacts covered in cobwebs. They look around, with Star finding an old journal, but before he can open it, Asha calls him over to a book she found. It’s titled “The Chronicles of Stars” and it contains info about the history of Rosas; stuff that Asha was never taught nor was anyone else. Star suddenly hears Magnifico coming. They leave the room with the book in tow and close the passage before hiding on the same balcony Asha did before. They’re relieved… until Asha notices her bracelet is gone! It fell off in their haste to exit the secret room. As Magnifico starts to reopen the entrance, Star sneaks past him disguised as a mouse and finds her bracelet. He takes it and hides while watching Magnifico read from the old journal. It was written by the king from many years ago who started the whole wish granting system. It has the evidence that Asha needs; formulas, spells, everything pertaining to capturing and destroying wishes and gaining more power. While he continues reading, Star sneaks back out and onto the balcony with the bracelet. Asha is so happy that she hugs him, thanking him repeatedly. He blushes (his cheeks glow brighter) and is stunned. They then use the dumb waiter to escape.

Magnifico finds book missing; “This is the Thanks I Get?”: Magnifico is becoming more agitated as he looks through the journal. He wants to know if there’s anything he can do about this bad omen, but the text fails to tell him anything he doesn’t already know. His eyes wander and he notices a gap on one of the book shelves. A specific book is missing. His frustration reaches a boiling point and he storms out to the main room. Amaya enters and finds him visibly angry. She asks him what’s wrong and he replies “You called them a ‘traitor’. No, no, I think a ‘rat’ is more appropriate.” He elaborates on one of the “forbidden history books” being gone and she’s alarmed. Finding whoever is challenging their power is of the utmost importance now and Amaya leaves to prepare. This version of “This Is the Thanks I Get?” has a more ominous tone. It starts off calm like “Be Prepared” and “Hellfire” and it gradually escalates, conveying how Magnifico is losing control (literally and figuratively). It culminates into him yelling the title in pure rage at the end of the song, much like in the movie. The lyrics highlight how ungrateful Rosas is - in his eyes, anyway - and scoffs at how these peasants think they’re more powerful than him. It also shows how determined he is to not be the king who ruins this great empire. There’s an additional scary bit where he proclaims that he’ll find the traitor and “snuff out [their] light��� while crushing a random object in his hand to emphasize his point.

History lesson: Asha mulls over the history book as she and Orion/Star walk through town. When she admits that it won’t be enough to get the people on their side, he tells her (through body language and very tiny star dust images that no one but her can see) about the old journal. She’s excited to hear this and says that perhaps their endeavour will be over soon, which makes them both pause. This is good news… right? They make their way to the bakery, but unbeknownst to them, someone overheard their plans of taking down Magnifico and Amaya: Simon. The pair meet with Dahlia, who is gobsmacked that they stole something from the castle. Still, she joins in on reading the book, finding it too enticing to ignore. Before the inception of wish granting, the people of Rosas looked to the stars. They told stories about them, created legends, believed that they were magical, and they helped the kingdom prosper because of the hope they brought. Asha, Dahlia, and everyone else was taught that Rosas before the wish granting era was struggling and in chaos (as was said in “Welcome to Rosas”). Why would the royals lie and seal this part of their history away? Orion/Star excuses himself outside when he notices Sabino helping another person with their wish. Sabino compliments his and Asha’s efforts in lifting everyone’s spirits, noting that there’s been a ripple effect of people helping each other. Orion/Star looks around and sees that the people still look tired, albeit not nearly as downtrodden. He spots the town's tavern and a few townspeople whose wishes were a variation of wanting to play music and he gets an idea.

Simon’s betrayal: As Amaya gets everything in order for a kingdom-wide search for the traitor, a guard approaches and tells her that a commoner has info about someone conspiring against her and the king. The royal couple meet with Simon, who tells them about Asha’s plans, what she's been doing, and that she stole a book from them. Both are pleased by the intel and Magnifico summons Simon’s wish: he wants to be a brave and honourable knight. “Thank you, Simon,” he says. “You’ve been very helpful.” He crushes the wish and absorbs its power. Simon is shocked and the couple order that he be taken to the dungeon. “But my wish… why did you…?” Simon asks in disbelief. “You ratted out a friend for selfish gain,” Amaya answers. “You’re not fit to be brave and honourable.” Simon is left speechless as he’s dragged off. Back in the wish room, Magnifico expresses his excitement about bringing Asha in. He also pulls out a magical staff that has been passed down throughout the wish granting era. Amaya glances up at the remaining wishes and tells her husband that she has a better idea on how to put an end to all this nonsense.

Tavern party: Asha and Dahlia leave the bakery still contemplating what they read. Their chat eventually turns towards Orion/Star; specifically him and Asha. Asha tells her nothing will happen even though it’s obvious she feels something, too. (“Besides, he’ll be leaving Rosas soon.” “It’s possible that he may choose to stay.” “Maybe… but let’s be realistic.”) They’re interrupted by a party going on in the nearby tavern. Everyone seems so happy and carefree; a stark contrast to what the two friends are used to seeing. And encouraging this merriment is Orion/Star. Dahlia is effortlessly won over by the atmosphere and Asha, while enjoying the sight of everyone having fun, keeps to herself. There’s singing, dancing, funny stories told in musical form, it’s a blast! After a while, Orion/Star approaches Asha and holds his hand out (Would you like to dance?). She accepts and joins in on the group dancing. (during "Welcome to Rosas" and the "Montage" song, we got hints of Asha's dancing talents, but she has restrained herself from actually showing it... until now) Bystanders cheer her on and she’s clearly soaking up the good vibes. She feels free and at ease for the first time in years. A humorous accident brings the music to an abrupt halt and Asha laughs along with everyone else. Orion/Star sees her full of such joy and smiles adoringly. He’s head over heels. After a heart-to-heart with Sakina about how everyone seems happier, Asha and Orion/Star leave to be alone.

(It’s worth noting that this party scene is a nod to the ‘Silly Song’/‘Yodel Song’ sequence in “Snow White,” right down to a comedic accident (i.e. Sneezy sneezing and sending Dopey flying) ending it)

Magnifico and Amaya frame Asha: The people are summoned to an emergency announcement from the king and queen. Feigning grief and outrage, they tell their subjects that Asha has destroyed all the wishes. Everyone is shocked, though many are confused. That doesn't sound right. She's been helping them make their wishes come true. Magnifico convinces them that she's been manipulating them into turning against him and Amaya. (akin to Frollo's "That wasn't kindness! That was cunning!" remark to Quasimodo about Esmeralda) Moreover, he points out that she has not helped everyone. Their charisma and fake compassion for the people's well-being unfortunately works on a majority of the residents. Not all are swayed; Sakina sticks up for her daughter, saying that she would never do something so horrible. Sabino agrees, then Dario, then a few other townspeople. "Well, it's clear where your loyalties lie," Magnifico says in an icy tone before ordering them to be sent to the dungeon, along with anyone else who sides with Asha. Dahlia doesn't say anything.

Asha and Star alone; “At All Costs”: After walking through the woods, Asha and Star reach the shore. She confesses that she can't believe all that they have achieved so far. "It's like a dream," she says. They look out at how the stars in the sky are beautifully reflected on the ocean. It's here that they grasp with the inevitability of him leaving after they save Rosas. She has accepted it ("Let's be realistic" as she often says). He hasn't. It would mean leaving her. He thinks for a moment before standing her directly in front of him. His fingers touch her lips, then his, then he runs them along her ears leaving a trail of star dust. Before she can question what he did, she hears a deep, soft voice: "Asha." It's him! It's Star! "You can...?" "Not for long." Unlike the other songs, "At All Costs" is almost exactly like its original version (i.e. the demo version). Admittedly, some lyrics are clunky and need tweaking, but other than that it's largely the same. In this sequence, there's levitation, dancing in the air and on the water, decorating her dress with star dust, and when they sing "There's no ocean I won't swim across" they create a wave to cascade around them, showering them in the reflection of the stars above. Additionally, while Asha will periodically take time to marvel at the gorgeous sights around her, Star rarely - if ever - takes his eyes off her. An all-around romantic and magical number. It ends with them landing back on the shore where they started, the star dust along Asha's ears disappearing. They hesitantly lean in to kiss... until Star suddenly turns his head towards the city. He hears something. Rosas sounds like it's in a frenzy.

pt.4 / pt.5

[informaltorching]

had a spectacular session in our chronicle last night.

we start with owen and vesper freeing the said "worthless neonates" from the meme, lol.

amare and niccolo attend a hunting party the ministry invited them to. they got to be depraved as fuck, you know oblivion users.

during the ambush, vesper rolled a messy crit and got paranoia on the table. our st gets excited and flavors his paranoia related to the current main antagonist (malk sheriff). he starts rapidly insight checking everyone, esp owen, vesper thinks they're all the sheriff in disguise. (the sheriff has tried to fuck with vesper using mask of a thousand faces before but was caught)

owen manages to calm vesper down, and they leave. (that is my emotional support ravnos)

then, our st made a cool ass scene where vesper and owen were locked on a tram with the malk sheriff, who was speaking to them as a drunken late night passenger. he then went on a villain monolouge comparing our coterie to rats and them becoming the rat king. it was very eerie, and the tension was immaculate. vesper was wedging his body between him and owen the whole time. The sheriff also was using dementation and wasnt actually fucking there, so of course there was no one actually on the fucking tram when they looked back after they got off.

one of amare's best friends / mawla happens to be that same antagonist's sister (like same sire not biologically), and she immediately after that had put some dementation (out of love in a way) into amare in a meltdown and we believe, ran back to the sabbat.

amare allowed her to do this btw, it wasnt forced onto her. so now she has a mild derangement that will be flavored with her shadows tying it into lasombra stuff.

the session ended when the coterie found amare. vesper pulled her close, trying to comfort her as she explained what had happened. then, she had a premonition trigger as a side effect from the Malkavian antics.

the vision is very on the nose, our antagonist represented as a gilded king, touching vesper's head and turning his heart and veins gold. in turn, vesper becomes so bright that all the shadows go away.

amare relays what she saw to everyone.

vesper reluctantly tells her he has to start reporting to the sheriff again tomorrow.

the session ends there.

[ultimate-rat-bracket]

Well my dear ratty friends…

It’s been a fun battle, but we must finally see the Ultimate Rat Bracket (aka the bRATcket™️) come to a close.

And though Kugrash and his supporters fought with all their might and were hot on Ripred’s tail for quite a while, we have a clear winner!

RIPRED OF THE UNDERLAND CHRONICLES IS THE ULTIMATE RAT BRACKET 2023 CHAMPION!!!

Thank you all for participating, whether that means voting, sending rataganda, making art, or yelling at your beloved friends to support your favorite little guy, I am so grateful for all the love and patience and have truly enjoyed running this tournament. I hope you all enjoyed and have found new media to check out thanks to this bracket. I know I certainly have!

Things to keep an eye out for!

At some point (unsure exactly when, since my schedule will be especially hectic these next few weeks!) I am planning to have a Loser’s Bracket! I need to figure out the details myself, but it should likely still be happening!

But first!

I am also planning a new tournament! It won’t be rat related, no, but I’m looking forward to seeing y’all there once it’s ready to accept submissions! Since it’s still technically in the planning stage I won’t link it right now, but I’ll post about it on this blog when it’s ready to go!

Thanks again my comrats, and now this rat king must bid you adieu!

(jk I’ll still be answering any asks or posting fanart/other stuff y’all send my way :])

Stacy Ninato (Final Apcolyptis Ver)

Stacy Ninato, a party member in my game Chronicles Meteorfall. She is a ditsy, timid, yet kind summoner in training who lived in the floating city of Aetheria. She is of the wingli race, a race of winged humanoids blessed by Seraphim Eternos in ancient times. She possesses fairy wings like all female members of the wingli race, though she is not a fairy herself. Male wingli possess angel wings instead.

While Stacy has fully functional wings, she never learned how to fly, only how to glide. This caused her to be teased by the other wingli children, not helped by her status as an orphan. However, her life was turned around when she was adopted by the legendary summoner Sensayu when she was 7 years old. Sensayu taught Stacy how to read and write in multiple languages, world history, and general math and sciences. Sensayu also discovered that Stacy had incredible potential in summoning magick, and decided to train her as his apprentice and potential future successor.

However, tragedy struck as Sensayu was suddenly murdered! Due to this all of Sensayu's scions, summoned beasts, the 12 zodiacs, were released from their contract and let free to cause havoc across the world. After Stacy and her new friends Koros, Tayo, and Zenith found the true perpetrator, Oracle Aria who body swapped with King Azul in order to trick the people of Aetheria, Stacy joined Koros' group to obtain all of Sensayu's lost scions and fulfill Sensayu's legacy.

Stacy is 17 years old. Her S-Class is the "Enchantress" class, the ultimate magick wielding class who uses powerful spells of nearly every element to annihilate the enemy. This includes powerful arts like Scathe, an almighty spell that does unreal almighty damage to all foes while lowering all foes stats by two stages. The enchantress' talent art is especially powerful. The talent art "Chainspell" allows one ally's spells to be used twice in a row for 3 turns, pratically doubling the damage of all magick users. The enchantress uses spears, bows, and staves.

Stacy's exclusive S-Talents include "Summon" and "Bellowing Gale." The "Summon" S-Talent allows stacy to summon a scion based on what scion animus is equipped in Stacy's special armor slot. Unlike other S-Talents, Stacy's summons require AP to use, but as a compromise only cost 50% TP. If no scion animus is equipped, the summon S-Talent fails and nothing happens with the AP and TP still being spent, so make sure you have an animus equipped before you use it! All scion's damage scales based on level so even low tier scions can be useful long-term, but generally the later you can obtain the scion, the better the scion probably is and the more damage it deals. Here is a list of all the summons, where to find them, and what their special move does.

Lepus: tier 1. Element: Healing. Zodiac: Rabbit. Where to find: The entrance of Banna Catacombs in Banna Woodlands after recruiting Stacy Art: Healing Helper (Heal a ton of HP for all allies based on level. Also heals all ailments).

Caledon: tier 1. Element: Smash Zodiac: Boar Where to find: Buy animus from Xelos' Shop in Aetheria/Eternia. Requires you to complete at least the first part of the sidequest "the shady seller." If after Chapter 8, the Aetheria section of the sidequest (part 2/3) will be skipped automatically straight to the Eternia section (part 3/3). Art: Primal Force (Deal massive smash damage to one foe based on level. If user's Lv > target's Lv, instant kills. (unless immune))

Ratatoskr: tier 1. Element: Dark. Zodiac: Rat. Where to find: Buy animus from Xelos' Shop in Aetheria/Eternia. Requires you to complete at least the first part of the sidequest "the shady seller." If after Chapter 8, the Aetheria section of the sidequest (part 2/3) will be skipped automatically straight to the Eternia section (part 3/3). Art: Devious Rumor (Deal massive dark damage to one foe based on level while draining HP/AP equal to 50%/5% of the damage).

Asterius: tier 1. Element: Smash/Force. Zodiac: Bull. Where to find: Buy animus from Xelos' Shop in Aetheria/Eternia. Requires you to complete at least the first part of the sidequest "the shady seller." If after Chapter 8, the Aetheria section of the sidequest (part 2/3) will be skipped automatically straight to the Eternia section (part 3/3). Art: Titanic Rend (Deal massive smash and force damage to one foe based on level. Lowers target's DEF/RES by two stages.)

Sleipnir: Tier 2. Element: Strike/Force. Zodiac: Horse. Where to find: Aetheria Skylands in the Isle of Paths after recruiting Stacy. Art: Pegasus Strike (Deal severe strike and force damage to one foe based on level that pierces 60% of DEF. Afterward, raises the user's SPD/DEX).

Bakkayo: Tier: 2. Element: Smash/Thunder. Zodiac: Tiger. Where to find: In Magitek Gardens 2F. Post-Ch8 he can be fought in the Skyseal Ruins at an increased level. Art: Raging Tiger (Deal severe smash and thunder damage to all foes based on level. Deals more damage the lower the user's HP).

Suzaku: tier 2. Element: Fire Zodiac: Rooster Where to Find: Mt Gara 1BF in a side room after Stacy is recruited. Art: Flames of Rebirth (Deal severe fire damage to all foes based on level. Heals all allies fully.)

Jormungondr: Tier 3. Element: Water. Zodiac: Snake. Where to find: In the Lakeside Cave during "low tide" (day) after Stacy is recruited. Art: Tidal Tempest (Deal unreal water damage to all foes x2 based on level. If user's lv > target's lv, instakills).

Anubis: Tier 3. Element: Dark. Zodiac: Dog. Where to find: In Beasteria Peak during the night after Stacy is recruited. Art: Death Judge (Deal unreal dark damage to all foes based on level. If the target(s) have any ailments, instakills.)

Adramelech: Tier 3. Element: Force. Zodiac: Goat. Where to Find: Wandering the abandoned Ozma Keep after Jeht is recruited. Art: Abomination (Deal unreal force damage to all foes based on level. Inflicts every ailment.)

Shinryu: Tier 4. Element: Water. Zodiac: Dragon. Where to find: In Accursed Well 1BF. Use tempra stone to unfreeze and fight. Art: Origin Breath (Deal colossal water damage to all foes based on level while fully healing the user.)

Wukong: Tier 4. Element: Smash/Light. Zodiac: Monkey. Where to find: In Omegas Badlands in a stone egg. Use a golden needle to unseal. Art: Rising Son (Deal colossal smash and light damage to all foes 4x based on level).

There are 3 other scions to find, but those are secrets!

Stacy's other S-Talent is "Bellowing Gale", which does unreal force damage to all foes while granting the party +2 press turns. Stacy's ultimate weapon is the "Stardust Destiny", a staff that grants her innate AP Turbo.
