More Doki Doki Battle Academy OP AU

even MOOROEEE of themmmmmahhhhhhh babyeyyy i even added some dialogues fir some extra flavourrrrr (kuma and bonney's gif there would be a sprite he would have in his dialogue scenes. i dont think it would be a gif like this, more like everytime you look back at him, bonney would be in a different spot)

original DDBA designs post (has more lore there, go look at it plese :3

ASL dialogue video

imagining the vinsmoke/strawhat beef going like this video

design stuffs and more lore:

preface: sorry this is so much writing and im not going to grammar check it cuz aint no body got time for that.

The world of this au is like pokemon with different gyms you can fight through and beat, there's a big league of pro fighters, and there are schools for teaching you to be a better fighter.

One of the schools is called the Germa 66 Private Battle Academy, it goes from grades 1-12 and its where the Vinsmoke siblings all went too (at least until sanji broke off from the family at some point) and its run by Judge Vinsmoke, their father.

i am thinking that the Vinsmoke kids would still be genetically modified and Kuma would be a cyborg in this too.

design stuffs:

Ichiji: i tried to make him as punk as he would feasably get away with living under his father's rule. Big "combat" boots, fingerless gloves, black undershirt. He likes his style and would probably go all out if he didnt have to conform to his school uniform, thus i put a little heart on his boots.

Niji: i also made him like his style. The rings on his fingers, his nikes shoes, his big headphones. Like a gamer who thinks this is what fashion is. I think he would love listening to music too so i put his heart on his headphones.

Yonji: big stakly guy. Hes a lot more hands-on than his brothers so i put lots of emphasis on that area. i put his heart on his hand wraps because i think he would really love fighting. I think that Yonji is most like his father in that enjoyment, but i think Judge wouldnt like how casual Yonji's style is.

Reiju: y2k queen. I love this design on her so much im so bummed that she would have already graduated from the academy and i cant put her in a Hit Me Baby One More Time-esque uniform outfit, shed fucking KILL THAT SHITTT. Anyway though, reiju's heart is subtle yet in plain view, the locket around her neck. i dont think she would let anyone look at the contents but i do think that absolutly it would be her mother on one side and her brothers on the other. She wouldnt like people looking at it because that would mean someone could see that her dad isnt in there and she would get it a lot of trouble with her father about it.

Power ranger fits: i made them full on power rangers. its what they deserve. Since reiju has a butterfly motif in canon, i thought it would be fun to also give her brothers a bug motif of their own. ichiji is a wasp, niji is a dragonfly, yonji is a stag beetle. If sanji stuck around, hed probably be a lady bug lol. Also the masks they wear, the eye window part, it’s like tear tracks coming out but in a way that doesnt look like thats what they are. But it’s meant to show how judge forcing his children to be these people is causing them pain.

thank you @zethsdumpster for being my Vinsmoke specialist and helping me come up with a lot of their design stuff!

Doflamingo: i tried to make him a Nasty Nasty man. Like if a used car salesman made it big. Like if Macklemore was MackleMORE. i love the idea that he likes to tan himself, but he doesnt take any of his clothes off to do so, so he just has the absolute craziest tan lines ever. i put his hearts on the gold chain around his neck, he loves his wealth but not much else. i love the idea of him having two very expensive watches on each wrist. there may be more watches up his sleeve too. i also gave him fluffy dice around his neck, like he's one of the cars that he's selling.

Rosinante: i couldnt get away much longer without putting the heart man into the heart 'game'. i couldve went off more with the hearts of his design but i didnt want him to become nearly as flashy as his brother. i wanted him to be understated and fade into the background when doflamingo is around. he is dead in this au btw sorry :/ this is his design when he passed, but doffy's design is present day him. anyway, Rosi's hearts are everywhere, its in the outline of his big huggable fluffy coat, its on his hat thats pulling him down, it would be on his shirt too if it wasnt covered by his coat in this image.

Bonney: SHEEES SO CUUTEEEE AAAAAAAA i love her. I based her design off of Avril Lavigne with her iconic necktie/tanktop/baggy pants looks. i tried to make her outfit look like she could feasibly fit in it when she ages herself up, especially her big ol shoes. the heart in her design is in her neck tie. The stereotypical visage of a dad is a man in a tie who goes to work, and she loves her dad, so her heart is in her dad tie.

Kuma: I didn't change much of him from his design in canon, but since bonney would be more in his life in this version, i wanted to give him more visual indicators of her being there. like the height chart on his leg, or the fuzzy hat she crocheted for him (she also made her own hat for herself). Also, the pattern on his shirt is one that looks like a paw, but if you took off that outer layer, if the pattern continued, the design would be a sun, and i just think that was really clever ehe ehe.

Hancock: Basically i tried to make her the baddest bitch in the universe. My program crashed like 3 times making her which is so funny. Procreate couldnt handle her. I based her design off of Medusa. at first i had her snake be made out of marble, but it eventually wound up at Obsidian. She has no visible hearts on her design and thats because it would be the scar on her back, which she tries to hide. i like the idea that this very visibly revealing outfit would be perfectly tailored and reinforced to never move a single inch to let anyone see what theyre not supposed to. I dont know how i would justify her being able to turn people into stone in this AU, so im just not going to make a decision on whether or not she can do that.

ive been working on these designs off and on ever since i made the first post on this au and im real happy i can finally put more out.

if you got to the end of this, thank you so much for reading~ i hope you enjoyed :)

I love the wing au!

It’s got me wondering, what would a trooper do if they were missing a wing? Like if it was amputated due to injury, would there be prosthetic wings? Or would they have to stay with only one wing?

Good question! I think it would depend a lot on the type of wings a trooper has and how that kind of asymmetric weight distribution would effect them. If you have feathered wings and you lose one, theres probably no way to replace that in a way that will let you fly again but you might want to rebalance your weight distribution if you're struggling to figure out how to adjust to having one wing.

If you have extremely large or long feathered wings you will probably have more complicated time adjusting to just having one and relearning how to distribute your weight - Your remaining wing would probably need to be secured in a way that kept the wingtips off the floor but didnt let you stretch to full wingspan on instinct, because you would probably topple straight over without counterbalance, at least for a while. Maybe some prosthetics can be rigged with a joint that opens and closes to match your other wing when you stretch it to full wingspan, i feel like thats definitely within the abilities of star wars tech.

For smaller & lighter wings its probably similar but easier to manage with less compensating to do, but i reckon your remaining wing would be doing a LOT of compensating for stability and would end up hurting from being held in slightly strained positions.

For insect wings, you probably wont be able to fly any more but i dont think it would knock you off balance as much because theyre so light - probably much easier to get a prosthetic that looks similar to your lost wing/s because the materials are lightweight.

If you have bat wings you can wear the remaining one like a cool cloak

In any case it would probably end up being a toss up between preference and practicality on an individual basis, though prosthetics that allow you to fly again are probably not feasable if you're a clone trooper [complex, expensive].

For all that Jade is a confusing individual, a lot of pages related to her are very integral to revealing lore elements.

She rocks out with her 'dreamed up' arms to her electric bass which translates to the robot having additional arms.

There was some serious work put in to make sure what she dreams up is feasable in the waking work and it just makes me more curious as to the inventor. Im fairly certain its probably her Grandpa but that still begs the question of why? Granpa is somewhere between Mom and Nanna for me on the 'knows Something about this game' scale.

But lets take a look at the lore shall we.

As Jade plays we get to zoom out and see four distinct areas.

In these first two we zoom out from Jades room to see how similar her spire structure is to the one on Earth. Then we see a similar spire a distance away on this moon-adjacent planetary object. Its a vaguely pentagonal shape chained to the main planet (which we'll look at in a bit) on the 'bottom' with the spires on either one of the 'top' two sides. Im already wondering if someone else is in that other spire and who it could be.

Once we zoom out again we see the larger luminous planet, Prospit. The amount of excitement at the name reveal, its real guys! Prospit is also pentagonal in shape. The 'moon' is chained to its top right side with four towers on its bottom left side. We know one of these towers is already active after Johns Kernel prototyping, so their prominent location is probably Very crucial.

And then the last zoom out, arguably the most important one. We get to see Prospit which is orbiting right outside of Skaia. This helps to decipher the map we saw on WVs appearifier screen and debunks my own theory on the placement of everything (for more on that go check out my Sept 28th post here).

So now that we have a better understanding of where everything is in relation to each other, Im wondering if there is a reason for the placement of the four planets. Two are further from Prospit but as they go up the levels will get closer to it. The other two are closer to the dark planet and will move farther away from it. Does this mean these further two are gonna have a harder time helping to protect Skaia, being so close to the enemy? Or are there supposed to be two teams instead, one helping each planet? I think that would suck; the worlds gone, youre in a new environment and now your friends are fighting against you... bad times all around.

For now, Jade is exploring the planet while the robo Jade mirrors the actions back on Earth. Im ready for more Lore!

Heh.... guess whos back to yap even more.... (its glitchduo anon) if this is too long and you dont want to reply thats totally cool however i saw you were interested in ashs character and i just HAD to assist...

(Everything neg here is about the characters not ccs btw, most of it is /aff anyways :3)

Ok so im assuming you know the general gist of s4 which is kind of all i know about it aside from like one or two vods ive fully watched. You also probably know about swagdoons which are the enemies to lovers (sometimes) of lifesteal and they try to kill each other but kiss afterwards..... they are the yaoi ever but ill try to be less insane about them to keep this rant focused

most of my REAL info about ash is from mid s5 and s6 which is when i started watching streams more than the videos, however i know he tries to portray himself as the big scary villain in s4 but honest to god he was apologizing PROFUSELY for the smallest things that guy is NAWT a truly heartless villain although he is pretty selfish and greedy but. Well:

before getting into his character i thought he like fully hated everyone, would never try to help someone else, was a general asshole etc etc but the more i paid attention to him the more i realized that yeah i guess he is those things but there is at least one person he gives a shit about (squiddo) and by god does he care a LOT about her

he also is pretty pathetic actually.... when his peace thing in s5 didnt work out he immediately went back to trying to be evil and selfish in s6... hmm its almost like he reverts back to hating everyone before they think hes a loser hmmm... its also really funny because this guy can BARELY pvp so he's very all or nothing on his dramatic gestures (eg he cant take over the server with pvp so he does it with the wormhole which imo is 500% more impressive, although i dont know very much about pvp)

despite him being pathetic he is def a force to be reckoned with, hes very idle until provoked and the provokation is usually out of spite and malice but that guy will stop at Nothing to get what he wants once he has a good enough motive (and doesnt have collage work)

he also gives me false god vibes but like... hes sort of AWARE hes a false god but does not want to admit it At All. i think its really interesting that the season after he became god he was made a host for a god (he actually confirms hes possesed by the commisioner/overseer/lifesteallord when he talks as them btw absolutely wild) and i think it would be cool if that was intentionally to like. Humble him. Show him a real god, not just an immortal guy with flying powers

(This is a little more of a headcanon but i think its feasable) i think that since his s5 loss, being his first major loss in any season ever, hes lost a sense of self in lifesteal, sitting in his house thats too big with empty walls and emptier reasoning. not to mention hes teamless and his only ally/friend is squiddo and thats not even official 😭😭

so yeah my guy is Going Through It... someone get this man hot chocolate and a warm blanket or maybe a picnic with his Best and Only Friend 🙁🙁

(Oh yea if you want a general idea of s5 onwards and dont have time for streams or really long cinematic videos i would recommend squiddos videos on it, theyre rarely over 15-20 minutes and there are only seven right now so you can get through them in a few days if you're REALLY crunched for time ^_^)

hello again glitchduo anon!! giggles i kind of know some general lore?? but mostly out of things i see on here about it, or like clips/vods i'm able to watch when i have time? so yeah... ash's character is very interesting to me, and honestly, what you said about him aligned pretty well with what i did see of him, but like... not in lifesteal, but the character he played in spoke's unstable videos. bro was literally begging for attention and alliance, and then turned around and BOOM twist villain jumpscare he's actually evil... he was acting off the whole time (ignoring mapicc, probably because he knew mapicc was harder to manipulate, and being very obnoxious about getting close to spoke in particular), so that checked out (sorry, i can yap about unstable for so long, im so insane about it) but yeah, i really really enjoy watching him do his thing, and i want to study him in a lab like a weird microorganism or something definitely was getting the false god vibes too btw from i did see of him in lifesteal (which was mostly just other people's vods) actually the whole being host of a god sounds so interesting?? that's definitely the first time i heard about something like this and i love everything having to do with possessions and stuff like that definitely one of the top characters i actually want to know more about (second close is minutetech i'd say) and don't worry, i really like reading what you send in, it actually helps a lot and it's very interesting!! the moment i opened my inbox and saw a lot of text i was like "oh yeah i know who this is from" (/hj/aff btw) thank you for taking the time to give me more knowledge i guess :33 !!

[thewomancallednova]

Some spoiler-y obervations on today's SNW episode, "Hegemony":

I'm really glad we got to see an adult Gorn that looks more humanoid. When Sam found those anomalous human readings I was really concerned they'd go with a "TOS Gorn a weird Human-Gorn hybrids" thing.

ERICA GOT TO SAY MULTIPLE SENTENCES IM SO HAPPY

I was 100% sure Batel was gonna die when she made a log entry at the start :D Pleasently surprised by how that went

I kinda wish the Gorn weren't such a drawn-out plot with SNW. The feeling I'm getting is that they're just doing "Arena" but with eight episodes scattered over three seasons and I don't really see how that's gonna be better than "Arena". For what it's worth I'd love to get a closer look at how Gorn society in SNW actually works, like how did y'all build those spaceships if you keep cannibalising everyone. And to this episode's credit they did tease in that direction.

Definitely more on board with Scotty by the end of the episode than at the start. I really hope we can keep Carol Kane next season and have her mentor Scotty. I like what SNW has done with Spock, Uhura, Chapel and M'Benga; so I'm optimistic about Scotty, but my first instinct whenever a new major TOS character appears is generally to groan.

How exactly does a demarcation line within a solar system? Like, I'm no physicist, but don't planets usually rotate around stars? Wouldn't that shift planets in and out of Gorn/Federation territory depending on the time of year? Incidentally, there's a Trek novel (by Peter David of course) that explores that exact situation, where a planet is in (IIRC) Tholian territory for two days every year.

Pike's voice when he says "Spock" after seeing the destroyed Caygua is just TT

Seeing Pike interrupt Battel's mission here with a subspace phone call, I wish we'd see that more often the other way around. "Sorry honey, can't talk right now I have to make the pirates revolt against their captain, I'll call you back later okay?"

Love the music cues reminiscent of TOS. And I'm glad in general that the post-Berman Trek shows got to recover from the "sonic wallpaper" directive.

The Starfleet delta pattern on the space suits is really distracting. Like, I know I'm supposed to look at how they're hand-holding but wow, that is a lot of deltas!

It kinda rubs me the wrong way that Spock and Chapel killed the Gorn on the Cuyaga, just when the planetside story gets all about how maybe we can talk with the Gorn. Probably doesn't help that the Gorn took like ten seconds to suffocate and seemed to be in excruciating pain throughout. Like, c'mon Chapel, shoot him already, it's be more merciful.

I think SNW is actually quite clever with connecting its Gorn continuity to that of TOS. The SNW Gorn ships like very different from the TOS ones, which is great because in "Arena" no one recognizes the new ship. The Gorn are only revealed as the perpetrators in conversation with the Metrons, so I think it's feasable that Kirk just doesn't know of them (as long as his relationship with La'an doesn't get any further) and the rest of the crew didn't want to interrupt during the conversation with the seemingly very powerful Metrons. After Kirk is teleported by the Metrons Uhura screams, because 60s show (she should be used to teleportation right, being in Starfleet), but the SNW retcon that she knows of the Gorn and their horrors really gives that moment new depth and makes it less silly.

hrmmmmmm dreaming up some concepts for a Thing i wanna do exploring rantaro's killing game (i say Thing bc i WANT it to be a fangams but UUUHHHHH is that feasable? sources say probably not)

what ill sya is korekiyo's sister was in this game (HEAR ME OUT) and theee was tbat secrets motive from the first game. ofc hers is the whole.... thing..... with her brother, and rantaro's secret is similarly juicy (not telling u bcos ud NEVER believe me)

BUT!! the sister. we'll call her miyo bc they have matchy names. she met up w rantaro and went "ok we're borh pragmatic. i tell you my secret and ypu tell me yours. that way since we got ir off oue chests, we won't look so visibly nervous in front od the others." she guesses by how nervous rantaro was that his secret was on the same level of life ruiningly awful as hers was (it is.)

and it worked, neither of their secrefs got out

and team danganronpa was PIIIIIIIIIISSSSED

so in the 53rd season they ofc got dear sweet (very much alive and watchinf all this on tv) miyo's brother whom she xares about so much and wrote his memories in such a way that the incest thing ends up revealed ANYWAY despite miyo's best efforts to hide it, and its revealed in a way that makes him grossly unsympathetic to twist the knife. just bc shirogane was pissed that miyo and rantaro were smart enough to not get their secrets revealed even tho theirs were the juiciest ones

shes still bummed that rantaro didnt last long enough for her to do it to him too :P

[zaenaris]

Hey i have a idea of what kind of "punishment" could fall on Koko in Mabu Timeline.

He's not especially violent (unlike Mikey and Sanzu), has not kill anyone (unlike Mikey and Sanzu), maybe he has beaten few peoples but he seems to stay in the background during fights. He was mostly the money maker.

So maybe his punishment could be probation rather than juivie.

yeah, probabtion could be since usuaally he's not involved in violent crimes, even if we know he can fight if it's needed, but he's there for his brain

but if we consider that he was probably the mind, or played a big part in the gang organizations and its criminal activities, he played a big role, so maybe a few months in juvie and the rest in probation/house arrest could be feasable

[theweirderofthetwo]

Anyone wanna see the chaotic notes i made while thinking of a temeraire & the terror crossover? As in what would the terror characters lives be like if they lived in post canon temeraire world?

Well here they are:

- Sipho publishes his book about the tswana in 1838, the jcr expedition starts in 1839 i think??? -> sipho could go to Antarctica (its like the only continent he hasnt been to, good chance he has gone to north america at some point between 1813-39)

- I think demane is the same age as frmc, emily a year older and sipho 3 years younger - i get weirdly emotional about this

- The opium wars probably dont happen - china is stronger, britain already has a pretty good trade deal (?), temeraire would work against it, they are friendlier with each other in general and i dont want it to happen

- So what about jfjs scars? I see 3 possibilities: A - all is well, he just doesnt get shot. B - boring, he gets shot in some other war elsewhere. C - china anyway, he somehow gets shot in china during peacetime, because.

- Dont think its feasable to do long polar expeditions with dragons, cant bring enough food for it to be safe, needs big structure to stay warm in winter

- Long distance fliers like shen lung might do survey flights tho, get a sense of where there is water etc

- Possibly could also look for missing expeditions - not able to rescue (or? How big are they? Guess they can carry a few humans but not an entire ships crew, could maybe deliver some supplies?), but could point rescuers in the right direction

- This would be if china wants to (or other nation with similarly specialized dragons)

- Sea serpents?!?!

- Like i kinda doubt the usefulness of nwp when dragons can fly across the us and serpents can swim with goods

- Maybe route for serpents, but probably too cold?? Or not? At least for a special kind?

- Could there be some local creatures in a bunyip kind of way?

- Easiest story set up would likely be that everyone goes south instead?

- The expedition library definitely includes all volumes of A true account of my travels with temeraire and laurence in 1809-1813 by henry(?) o’dea

- If they go south and sipho is with them the question arises: is rankin still in australia? And will he show up to be an asshole?

- Sipho thinks l&t worry more than nessecary - he is an adult, he is older than laurence was when went and did the treason or when he got lost in japan etc

- The navigation aspect of magnetic research is one of the science things laurence finds genuinely intresting, because navigation

- How would society in europe have changed after 3 decades of dragon integration? I think it would make sense for womens rights movement to have accelerated (f dragons can vote etc). But what other discussions would the changes result in?

- Some things would probably be different but not better, because while dragons cut through nonsense they also have priorites that dont nessecarily fit with humans. Also temeraire and likely other early political dragons have an officers perspective on society

- Does jfj have any memories of Rio?? Probably not, but it would be awesome if he did because that must have been a very interesting place in the mid 1810s

A little note about MuMu now I look at it again. It seems like, in order for the reinforcement to copy an op, you need to activate its 'skill' first. Then, all ops cost becomes 0 and you can put them on the reinforcement and it will copy the op. The op isn't actually deployed so no DP cost is wasted nor is any redeployment timer started.

I think she can be a worthy addition to the current Vanguard Meta. The general idea now is that you deploy Flagpipe to deploy your ops fast so you can have, let's say, a Mudrock at the gate as soon as possible. But in some situations, a non-blocking Vanguard squad on the map simply isn't feasable due to enemy pathing or map design or other conditions. In those cases, you can plop down MuMu with a water clone that already has the stats of Mudrock to hold down the enemies until the real Mudrock can be deployed.

The MuMu in the showcase has a DP Cost of 12, but I'm not sure if that MuMu has pots. Then again, her talent probably lowers her own DP cost too.

StormClan

So I thought about this concept. And actually, I kinda like it. I want to take this idea, kick the wildcat subplot because that´s kinda weird, and make it work.

The Timeline

We have a more or less unbroken chain of leaders from SkyClan leaving to the present, so we can´t just shove Stripestar and Galestar in there and call it a day. But what we can do is turn the events of StormClan into the reason things get worse after SkyClan leaves.

The thing about a culture build on conquest, in my eyes, is either it keeps conquering or it settles down. If it can´t keep conquering, it´ll either split up and tear itself apart or go for option two.

The Clans, pre StormClan, were going for option two!

The Clans were build on this idea of owning territory by devine right, but once the borders were established, that´s kinda where they got stuck. SkyClan, ThunderClan and RiverClan were and still are bordered by the twoleg place, WindClan by farmland. ShadowClan ... roads? Probably. Anyways, expanding outwards wasn´t feasable. Turning on one another when your ancestors all walk the same sky wasn´t going to happen at that point.

So, the Clans settled down. Time passed. Cats forgot a time where they weren´t five groups of cats in the forest. Peace spread, trade boomed.

Stripeclaw and Galestorm fall in love. And that isn´t a problem. Yet.

I´m thinking that Stripestar and Galestar combining their Clans was most violently opposed by Flystar, Cloudstar´s predecessor. At the time, SkyClan was the most expansionist Clan in the forest, opposed to the cliche of it always being ShadowClan that makes trouble. Clear Sky left a mark.

The "four trees means four Clans" argument was Galestar´s, trying to defend their choice.

StormClan didn´t leave. StormClan was driven out.

Swiftstar was Galestar´s apprentice. He stayed, and there was a certain satisfaction to twisting his mentor´s words to drive out SkyClan.

Except. StarClan didn´t just punish the cats that left. They punished all cats of Wind and Thunder.

You know how after a great desaster, religion gets a boost? That´s what happens here. Thunder and Wind double down hard on the battle culture, dragging River and Shadow along with them in the wake of Sky leaving.

From then on, the title of "Clan most likely to start/re-start a war" goes around wildly for generations, and the reasons eventually are forgotten as more cats die than grow old, and elders and mentors focus on glorifying combat rather than the older stories of peace. In this era, the Cleric´s law and the ban on mixed Clan relationships are created.

FourTrees, Four Clans

Four trees means four Clans. Yes, but also no. We will end with four Clans, but not in the Forest.

The Forest Four go down in the selfdestructive battle that is the other option when an empire of conquest can conquer no more. Tigerstar, Leopardstar and Brokenstar are so convinced of their devine right to rule all that they bring about the end of the Clans entirely. Talk about narrative irony.

What remains are LakeClan, the cultural patchwork.

SkyClan, arboreal climbers that embrace streetcats and kittypets.

The Forest Coalition, the survivors of three Clans making it work.

And StormClan.

Now, what do I want for StormClan?

StormClan

I want them to keep tunneling, actually.

By the time LakeClan forms, tunneling has died out in WindClan. Talltail was a moor runner. Tunneling was outlawed before he was even made a warrior. There are no tunnelers alive by the time WindClan scatters.

LakeClan has only moor runners and what tales Talltail remembers.

StormClan, however, combines tunneling with ThunderClan´s preferred hunting ground of dense underbrush. They are split into Stalkers and Tunnelers, and their camp is entirely underground. It´s an old warren, expanded and added on over generations, lit by candles and vented through the tunnels themselves, the way an anthill vents through the placement of its tunnels.

They are lead by a pair, not necessarily a couple. And, just like SkyClan, they don´t have certain parts of the warrior code.

Preferably, one leader is a Stalker and the other a Tunneler.

The leader pair is also advised by a herbalist/healer, a priest and the council of elders.

Where SkyClan is outgoing and open, StormClan is more reclusive, but not hostile. Where SkyClan has a connection to Kittypets and Streetcats, StormClan is closely connected to their local loners and the nearby Tribe of mountain cats - more on that later.

Instead of dens being split into Leader, Warriors and so on, couples share small dens in the corridors from the main cavern, and their kits stay with them until they are six months old. Apprentices move in with the family of their mentor until they are made warriors, from which point they may stay with that family, move back in with their parents or a sibling or stay in a den together with others who don´t have a mate. No StormClan cat sleeps alone at any point in their lives, and they adhorr the mere idea.

StormClan has a rich culture of art, mostly pottery and painting. They have also figured out how to make candles, and the floor of the main cavern is laid out with a mosaic.

Much like SkyClan and LakeClan will, they lost the title -star at some point.

They kept the reverence of the Clans for their ancestors, and families have little shrines next to the entrances to their dens. A Priest oversees holidays and is consulted in case of dreams, omens and visions. It´s generally accepted that any cat could recieve signs, omens, dreams and visions from their ancestors, but the priest is trained to interpret these.

The ranks in StormClan are: Leaders, Deputy, Healer, Priest, Warrior (split into Stalker and Tunneler), Artisan, Apprentice, Queen, Kit and Elder.

The Deputies are often the heads of Tunnelers and Stalkers.

Stalkers hunt for small game above ground, while Tunnelers hunt below ground or larger game.

Artisans maintain the camp tunnels and do crafts as a role rather than as a hobby.

Apprentices are trained in all ways and choose their preferred path during their warrior ceremony, and they can change their decision at any time.

The priest and the healer may choose an apprentice among the kits and apprentices of the Clan, however, a cat may reject their offer or request this role themselves.

Priests and healers may have mates and kits, with the contingency that there always has to be a healer and priest available to tend to the Clan. Essentially, it´s not a good look to be nursing kits while you´re the only healer or priest.

StormClan´s current leaders are a queerplatonic pair of she-cats, Alderstorm and Terracottaheart.

Naming a cat -storm or -claw is considered good luck.

Hey if you family raised Flabebe into Florges:

Did you need Shiny Stones for the evolution? If so were they one time use? Or could you use them multiple times (how many times)?

If they were one time use where did you get your supply from? Were there Shiny Stones deposits on Hortênsia? If not Hortênsia was there any on other Vulgrado islands?

Yep! Florges need shiny stones to evolve, no matter what region they're from. There are ways to evolve stone evolutions without the actual stone, but that requires exposing them to incredibly high amounts of infinity energy and typed energy of the correct types, and very few places or things have the right conditions other than evolution stones.

i mean pokemon that are stone evolutions, have been known to evolve in rare circumstances while legendaries run wild (a LOTTA eevees evolved during stuff like the weather crisis in hoenn. kyogre has enough power to act like an infinite moving water stone, i guess.) but uh. thats not really feasable? so shiny stones are your best bet!

they're pretty common on hortensia, which is why most of the florges breeders in vulgrado live here (i say most as if theres not like only 3 notable ones) but a few other close by islands also have quite a few. its part of why pirates could spare the extra shiny stones while pirating around the coasts of the vulgradian islands. there was just so many of them that it was more effective to have a florges than hoarde and sell them.

as for single usage or not, evolution stones are technically able to be used infinitely HOWEVER they typically only have one usage at a time (maybe more if theyre larger) and take years upon years to slowly absorb the correct amounts of energy to be used again. you'll probably only ever be able to use a stone once or twice within your lifetime, maybe three if you live in an area filled with a lot of energy. places like geosenge in kalos has tons of infinity energy just laying around, so theres a lot of evolution stones.

its actually theorized that mega stones are just evolution stones that have been transformed by extremely high amounts of infinity energy and aura, but the high amounts needed to simulate it would essentially just be making a second ultimate weapon since thats the cause of most of the worlds mega stones and why the vast majority are found in kalos

the overlap between this boom in tumblr porn bots and the sudden shift in approach that youtube comment bots have taken is. interesting to say the least
