Tada! Another dragon finished up, this time Saphira from the Inheritance series, for a fan in Austria. Safe travels, Saphira!

I'm booked through the end of this year, but you can put in dibs for next year's slots here: X

for the past few months i've been building up how a postcanon "human" shapeshifter design might look so here they are finally! i just think they deserve a proper arc

more info plus close ups under the cut 👇

now goes by theseus (any pronouns)

strained relationship with both fiddleford and ford, though a bit more resentful towards fiddleford

design elements partly inspired by boris the animal, specifically the way eyebrows work

theseus (in universe) takes a mix of features from both ford (mostly) and fiddleford (and to an extent "baron num nums") while also leaning into making an actual identity for themself

has a chest scar from the axe

no ears

if i was to ask someone if magical girl animes had magical boys in it most people would say probably not, but there are still a fair amount of like, 90s magical girls that had male counterparts that were in some way tied to the magic in question like card capturer sakura, sailor moon, & shugo chara. even tokyo mew mew gave aoyama a magical form, though the circumstances were kind of different.

it's definitely always been more common for the team to always be girls, but most don't really bother to give a REASON for that unless it's a parody or deconstruction of the genre, though madoka's explanation is moreso that it has to be a very specific group of girls because of the emotions they face & yuuna yuki is a hero has the whole sacrifice/shrine maiden metaphor so textually, it has to be girls Because We Are Saying Something About Gender. but then when you get to modern animes like magilumiere it's more like "oh well men just don't have the right kind of magic to be magical girls" (tho in their defense, that's mostly a technology issue). now that the genre's so well known, it's less "we're telling a story about magical girls" and "i have something to say about magical girls, so all the characters have to be women."

finally living in a non-abusive household is just constantly reminding yourself you're not in trouble and you're allowed to get yourself food, you're allowed to leave your things out and only put them away later, you're allowed to have opinions, you're allowed to shower at an ungodly hour, you're allowed to take up space

Touch my chicks and you are ROAST (literally 🔥)

Draco awakens his creature inheritance on his 14th birthday. It's a great news right?

For him and his housemates? Definitely. For anyone else? They find out pretty fast it is very much not.

As it turns out Draco is a very fierce and very temperamental flying chicken (Veela) who promptly adopted all the Slytherin lower years as his 'chicks'.

He would go into an absolute feral rage if ANY of them were hurt and deal with the preparators with no mercy or whatsoever. Let's also be said that Veelas are very, very vengeful creatures.

So as it should be other houses would learned very quickly that hurting one of the lower year Slytherins are a serious health hazzard (for them) and need to be avoided like the plague if they didn't want a pissed of pureblood or worse... a floff with anger issues and very sharp talons and instant combustion abilities out for their blood.

Prompt:

Contrary to popular belief, most wizards from older lines had creature blood swimming through their veins. However, experiencing a creature inheritance is an incredibly rare occurrence. It can only occur while a witch or wizard is underage, while their magic is still in flux, and only if they survive something devastatingly traumatic that makes their body/magic tap into their creature side, waking it up. Those who experience a creatures inheritance are often painted with the same brush as obsurials - incredibly powerful, but slaves to their instincts.

Even from the earliest age, Harry Potter was considered an exceptionally powerful wizard. He did not go through an inheritance as an infant, suggesting that whatever happened, he was powerful enough that he didn’t need to tap into his creature magics. Nor did he go through an inheritance after the battle for the philosopher’s stone, or after fighting a basilisk, or hundreds of dementors, or after being used to raise Voldemort, or after his godfather was killed, or even in the weeks after facing a lake full of inferi and witnessing the death of his Headmaster.

However, not long before his 17th birthday, something changed. Despite all he had been through in the magical world, nobody thought... nobody listened...

For years, Harry had been trying to tell them that he didn’t want to go home.

Harry's 'friends' have abandoned him, his teachers not believing him and is left to fend for himself. Harry sneaks down to the Chamber of Secrets to release tension and panic in private but ends up discovering Slytherin's Personal Library. Armed with magic, shielded by a Horcrux he discovers inside himself, Harry vows to no longer become victim to manipulation. In doing so, Harry breaks the hold that was on his magic, discovers his creature inheritance and maybe ends up saving the world with his so thought enemy.
