#and stop sending me passive aggressive asks about towertrapped

[sn0wbat]

did anyone want an OC AU with some glowans and fantrolls?? like, putting them in the same universe as the vampires i’m currently fixating so hard on???

well here, have some art anyway, you’re welcome

Clearly, you clicked the readmore because you wanted to know more. 

Anyway, so far:

Siini (Simo O. Nortunen) is a vampire. He’s also finnish, and the son of the local mayor, who’s a total narcissist and also insists that he’ll always be “her little girl” and spoiled him with all the latest tech he asked for (while literally having indoor windows into his room so she could spy on him). Somehow she still found a way to misgender him in a language that doesn’t have gendered pronouns.

Anyway, he’s trans. Aurin saved him when he was like 16. He actually loves being a vampire and wouldn’t have it any other way, it’s a great way to escape his mom and also society in general, and he also got a free transition while he was at it?? Perfect. He doesn’t mind the bloodlust, it’s still better than living with his mom. 

Also, Bat tried drinking blood from his household once. He’s kinda been all over the place.

Tayda (Taija Riita Sismonen) is a werewolf here. I still haven’t drawn her human form, sorry. She currently does live in an apartment like her glowan counterpart, but she also has this huge werewolf family. When she grew up, they drove over to their cabin in the woods every full moon to go wolf. The neighbors didn’t suspect anything. Simo didn’t know about this either, until he was a vampire himself.

Aurin (Aurinko Sismonen), she’s the weird distant relative of Taija’s family. Actually a vampire, a daywalking one! People may not know her glowan self very well, but basically she’s a nocturnal glowan who kept staying up to see the sun, so this fits her very well. She’s the one who turned Simo. She also always claims to be 222 years old. She’s done that for a few decades now.

My landdweller fantrolls are what is basically my take on mythical Norwegian trolls. (I’ve literally grown up in Norway, this is fine)

These are juvenile trolls, not yet started to grow much into those horrible huge adult trolls we often see in Norwegian troll art. They’re very earth-toned and blend in well with the forest. They also tend to hibernate a lot, which is when moss and trees grows on them. 

They also don’t like the sun. While it only hardens the skin of juveniles, it is straight up fatal to adult trolls (it goes straight through them, turning them into stone) 

My seadweller fantrolls get to be kinda nøkken-based instead. Normally they’d be covered in a ton of lakeweeds for camouflage reasons, but for convenience I drew them without this stuff, so you can see them. They also have the ability to shapeshift and lure people into the small forest lakes that way. 

Basically, the existence of trolls in Norwegian folklore were warning stories for children to not wander into the woods or mountains too far, or else the trolls will getcha and eat u alive 

Anyway, trolls do exist for real in this world, and so does the fae folk. There’s also a secret fae realm that any mythical creatures can access and go hide in if they can find the secret entrance, which keeps changing location. anyway yeah

Talin (Tølir Ísshjarta Arnþóruson) still belongs to @crimson-catalyst​, but rather than being the evil half-zarein king of a whole planet, he’s the evil half-fae viking king over a good chunk of land and some households. The stakes are obviously lower in this AU, but hey. He’s also still a rich, immortal asshole, and the immortality is due to his fae heritage this time.

Avn’ra (Arnþóra in Auða Arviðardóttir) is still Talin’s mother (he clearly takes more after his fae side). Much like her glowan counterpart, she managed to claw herself all the way to the top and the people fear her for it. She’s a powerful woman. Anyway, she also fell in love with a fae boy from Scotland once (that’s D’Sora) and then he surprisingly returned to her many years later, and that’s how Tølir happened. 

Anyway, I’m sorry Towertrapped is put on hold, I still do care about the characters, but my vampires are really the ones living in my mind right now. 

Why do I still feel the need to apologize for that?
