I feel like I'm the only one who didn't have any 'Bloodborne vibes' while playing Lies of P, for me Lies of P has its own unique atmosphere I've never experienced in any other games. I don't know, maybe it's because I didn't play Bloodborne a lot (I speedran the last part of the game 💀) or something like that 🤷
Please tell me I'm not the only one who think that 🫠
And this is just MY thoughts so don't get mad please 😭

no please share your Bloodbourne AU with us….im glad im not the only one thinking about this
Hey sorry I'm only getting to this now! I never get asks for this blog so I don't bother checking often.
I don't have any particularly detailed thoughts, and a lot of things just don't fully add up unless you ignore some lore on both ends but here's re a few ideas I've had (they're all just very very obvious connections tbh they're not super interesting I think):
Obviously the religion of the Ninth is the Healing Church
The Cathedral Ward, specifically Oedon Chapel, would be the Ninth/Drearburh equivalent
It gets a bit complicated when we get to talking about the Lyctors, Resurrection Beasts, and BoS, however
I think the best option for BoS to be would be the hunters (Wake being the much sexier and much much less creepy version of Gherman (would that make Pyrrha Lady Maria?) as the leader/founder)
The Byrgenwerth Scholars could be the Lyctors (or necromancers more broadly)
The Lyctors would be the known bosses and scholars we know of (Maria, Micolash, Rom, etc.) although they could also include hunters like Gascoigne
The RBs would be the bosses that are not human (Amygdala, Blood Starved Beast, (potentially Vicar Amelia idk how I feel about including her tbh)
Here's the tricky part:
John and Alecto could be Willem and Laurence, but I see Jod as Laurence in this (because he would use the blood (which in this case it would be the necromantic equivalent ig??) to "help" people but Alecto would not vibe with it)
However Willem was essentially the founding figure of Byrgenwerth, which, if we didn't do a 1:1 comparison could also work
Laurence could also be Anastasia the First, being the respective founders of their churches
Another issue is that I don't know what to make of the necro/cav duos. Admittedly, this is what makes the AU fall apart for me a little, although I'm sure there's a way to make it work
The easiest thing to do would be to make them Hunters, but then the BoS thing would have to be different
We could pull a Soul Eater and have the cavs be the Hunter weapons because the healing church also has hunters, but that doesn't quite fit for me
Unless
The Cainhurst Vilebloods could be the BoS equivallent, going against the church founded under Laurence/John
This lets the hunters be necromancers and their cavaliers, provided they hunt in pairs
This also lets Pyrrha be Maria and have some ties to BoE through Wake
Some characters might not have direct connections tho
Nona is hard to account for on account of the whole Nona thing
Characters like Patches don't seem to fit with tlt either
The House system would have to be potentially scrapped, although they could be allied/paired off based off of branches from the Scholars
Magic is also a challenge, as the closest thing are the Arcane Hunter Tools and Blood which isn't the same as necromancy (especially not TLT necromancy with the intricacies of the River, thanergy and thallergy, etc.)
Lyctorhood would also be a challenge, although it could be as simple as "the soul/body/blood is absorbed when 'ascended'" or something
The whole "Bloodborne is full of references to the horrors of womanhood and pregnancy and femininity and blood" thing also doesn't fit quite as neatly with tlt because it has a more anti-imperialist bend to it and gender-fuckery happens, but it's not quite like in Bloodborne
For this reason, the whole Pthumerian part of the lore doesn't fit in any way that's easily apparent to me, although I'm open to ideas on all of this, particularly I would love to find a way to fit Queen Yharnam into all this without just making her Wake because they're both the only ones who are prego.
Anyway yeah that's about it lmao hope it's as interesting as you thought it would be
