Mythus when X do his job better than him

[poeticcannon]

"Jellyfish on the Staircase": The Riddlers have a saying: every time that an enigma manifests in the universe, it will leave behind a "staircase" in the void. The dissolved realities will then drip down the steps, condensing into a mottled thing bearing semblance to a jellyfish. There was once a Nameless who claimed to have made contact with a "Jellyfish on the Staircase." In madness, he proclaimed that the jellyfish will activate the cognition regions within the gray matter of one's brain a vast place beyond the fathoming of mortal minds.

Really gotta dig around the wiki for this stuff. Seems like a nihility connection implied?

Reader as the Aeons “Mother”

HEAVILY inspired by: @deathcvltcivilofficial

CW: yandere….? I think….?

——

Aha: The prankster middle child. They do pranks to gain your attention, weather it’s you scolding them or laughing along side them. They’d do ANYTHING and EVERYTHING to keep your eyes on THEM.

Akivili: A responsible child, who tries to keep things orderly yet also fun. They try to parent AHA when they’re about to pull a prank that miiiiiiiight tip you over the edge of your patience and sanity.

Ena: “YOU ATE YOUR FUCKING SIBLING!!!?” you yelled in anger at Xipe, who stared with a nervous smile and nervously sweating “N-nooooo……~ Ehe…..”

Fuli: Another responsible child. Similar to Akivili, tried to keep things calm and peaceful, yet is often told off and ignored. Doesn’t care though, as long as they’re on your good side.

HooH: The most responsible and the oldest child. The aeons listen to him the most whenever your away. He keeps things balanced, allows Aha to continue their pranks but not to a major extent.

IX: The most nervous and anxious one. Needs your attention on them at all times or else they’ll believe you hate them. They’d also listen to your word like law—as do all the aeons—but they do it to a EXTREME EXTENT.

Idrilia: Ever so slightly snobby, as they LOVE to flaunt their beauty, Claiming themselves the favorite as you gave THEM the most beautiful appearance and personality. Besides being slightly egotistical and prideful, they’re one of the kindest and gentle aeons, just don’t try to claim yourself as THEYRE gods Favorite. That title rightfully belongs to THEM.

LAN: The second youngest and responsible child. Will only try to kill Yaoshi 60 times a week only because you want them to get along, which will never happen. Any type of blasphemy that dares to taint your name is instantly struck down by their arrows.

Long: Your pet dragon. Always wraps itself around your neck as a scarf so they can cool you down or nuzzle up to you. Has fights with Idirlia on them declaring themselves as ‘the favorite’ when it’s clearly THEMSELVES.

Mythus: Fuli’s creation. They taught mythus to respect you the most and that they must stay responsible and never lose their sight on their goal. So, when the Droidhead (Nous) was starting to annoy them, they made it their mission to Fuck with it. Mythus only holds respect towards you and Fuli, and is the grandchild that loves their grandparent more then their parent.

Nanook: Another attention seeker of yours. Doesn’t matter what kind of attention you give THEM, they love it no matter what. Gets into ‘competitions’ fights with Aha for your attention and has to get held back by Qlipoth from going overboard. Also they’re most definitely the most problematic and rebellious.

Nous: A snobbish dick. Doesn’t care enough to prove itself as your favorite, because it’s obvious that you DO favor them. Let the dragon and idiotic beauty creature battle their meaningless battles, such battles isn’t logical to take part in when they know they’re the best.

Oroboros: A prankster, but not to the extent of aha. Pulls simple pranks like the water bucket ontop of a door, eating the fridge whole…. Ya know. The basics. They’re the most silent yet also more verbal in their attraction towards you, nuzzling up to your body and trying to lick your divine skin, only to get slapped away by your little dragon (I just realized how wrong this sounded)

Qlipoth: Another responsible child. His determination to keep things simple for you always preserves, they look to HooH for guide on how to keep things moving perfectly for you. (see what I did there? 😃….😀…. Fuck yall too, lame ass cu—)

Tayzzyronth: A child who spreads his creations around to ‘spread your grace’ yet fails miserably. They’re a ‘boy failure’ who propagates a shit ton to be successful and worthy of your praise/attention, only to fail.

Terminus: The youngest child, only ever shows itself to you. Hates the other aeons and spread’s prophecies to better the universe in a way they KNOW you’ll be proud of.

Xipe: Your still mad at her for absorbing their sibling, but she tries to make it up. Despite absorbing her sibling, they also try to keep things harmonious (Ahhh? Ahhhh?! 😃….okay I’ll stop)

Yaoshi: A suck up. The ultimate suck up. She sings your praises a healthy 1 sextillion second a day. All shrines that are made for you was likely ‘commissioned’ by her. She’s your maid, whatever you want she’ll spend her life making sure you get it. Also drags IX with her when she’s doing it. When she’s not away from you she uses her multiple hands to massage your body and get touchy with you.

yeahhh bbg yeah

[b1adie]

okay these sunday boss drops are just fucked up 😭

[riddler-elinoir]

Would you look at that? It's been a while since the last time I interacted with a Riddler. Why, my greetings, miss.

🌌 @masked-genie

Elinoir raises a brow, the voice catching her attention as he turns around to see the owner of the voice. She meets face to face with a stranger, seeing him bow.

She smiles. "Oh hello there." She greets. "Seems like someone knows that I'm a Riddler. Any business you want with me perhaps?"

[arataki-neato]

Fuckin love how Mythus the Enigmata has almost an AI-generated sort of quality to their design considering the MO of the History Fictionologists is creating such a glut of completely fabricated information that truth is indistinguishable from fiction

[spark-circuit]

gotta love a guy who is. just unknowable. 💖

[starcurtain]

One faction I want to know more about in HSR is the Riddlers. They fascinate me and I hope if we eventually met at least one and we get an option to have our character get mad at them because they find them incredibly annoying to talk to!

Sorry this took me one million years to answer because I had so many messages but yes!!

Honestly, I think Star Rail's universe-wide approach is fantastic for game design because it's so open-ended. Like Genshin feels like it has a relatively finite point--the seven nations of Teyvat, plus Khaenri'ah and Celestia (although of course, other worlds are also already hinted there). But Star Rail, on the other hand, seems infinite. We could theoretically never run out of worlds to visit and have adventures on.

And that's soooo good for world-building because it means you can just come up with completely random locations and cultures and factions and sprinkle them in wherever you feel like.

I love all the different factions that have been hinted at so far in Star Rail, just mysterious little blips that tantalize us with the idea that we might come across characters of those factions one day.

I feel very sympathetic to the Riddlers, having been a student of critical theory; the idea that language is not finite, the gap between signified and signifier, the inherently arbitrary nature of word formation--all very fun stuff.

But I think my heart is with the History Fictionologists. What a great concept because of course it's morally wrong to obscure and erase history! Terrible! But also it's completely logical to agree that the world needs mysteries to function! That all zest for existence comes from pursuit of unknown truths! That some conundrums must be unsolvable or risk the complete collapse of all drive for life into nihility!

What a complicated moral quandary with absolutely no easy answer. I think about this so much, you guys have no idea.

[poeticcannon]

Mythus the Enigmata is interesting. An enigma usually involves questions. But the Enigmata seems to usually do alterations to truth that go unnoticed.

If there is an associations with questions too, then both Nous the Erudition and Mythus the Enigmata are gods of questions while being at odds.

[bernardellinewsagency]

so which hsr fan was going to tell me that gallagher's name is derived from words meaning "foreigner, stranger" and "desiring"????? i was just supposed to find that out for myself???

i have so many thoughts about this man. can i articulate them? no. do i get emotional every time i think of how the credits scene said "penacony" and "gallagher" are one and the same?? abso-fucking-lutely i do. "penacony as gallagher" has continued to haunt me since the day i saw it.

it's something about. he *is* penacony. penacony is him. he is a lie, yet penacony is also nothing but a lie, a great glorious lie that no one wanted to wake up from. but in the end, like welt said, those imprisoned in their dreams started to want to awaken to freedom- as the lie of penacony ended, so too must the lie of gallagher, of course he would have to leave just as the imperfect tomorrow dawns on the planet of festivities.

he is. urgh. he's something that drives me insane thinking about him. a lie. a stranger. a foreigner. just the creation of a history fictionologist. he might *be* penacony, he might be created from its people, the traits of 52 loyal family members, but does he belong there? is there room for a lie within a lie, nestled within each other like matroyshka dolls, unsure where one begins and one ends? and yet a lie has a heart, he has the beating heart of penacony within him, it's what he desires. the watchdog, the loyal hound, protector of the residents of dreamflux reef and those he cares about. the one thing you can truly trust about him is that he loves and he wants but he can't quite belong. what he has, he cannot access, and what he can access, he cannot have, maybe it's something like that.

i may just be crazy but this man is a mobius strip and i want to unravel him even if it's through verbose but not very articulate ramblings. he's enigmatic by design, incomprehensible on purpose, and i'm stupid most of the time but rn it's feeling like the kind of stupid where maybe even something that can't be solved could make sense. i just can't explain that sense to anyone else at all :)

[pinkrose05]

The fuck do you mean, there's a Teyvat equivalent in the HSRverse??

[closed--meadow]

Okay guys, hear me out-

[brainrot-mx]

I DON'T KNOW WHERE ELSE TO POST THIS BUT HERE U GO ‼️spoilers hsr 2.2‼️

I am aware the danganronpa fandom is prolly really inactive rn and I also have no idea if the HSR fandom is on here BUT I HAVE TO SHARE MY IDEAS (saiouma mixed into hsr)

Kokichi would be an emenator of the Enigmata or Elation:

I'm leaning Enigmata honestly, but his lies and hatered for violence would be a great motivation for him altering history to prevent humanity from ever commiting heinous crimes ever again (like the killing game?)

The remark from Shuichi after the 5th trial about Kokichi being a lie itself would fit perfectly for being someone either made by a fictionologist (like Gallahager) or being an emenator

He's also incredibly smart which would help him with covering up history, twisting facts and generally messing with public opinion/knowledge about history in subtle ways by using lies

His belief that lies can be used for good also factors into this

Messing with anyonr related to Nous, specifically Shuichi here but I think the memebers of the Genius Society would hate him <3

As an Emenator of Enigmata, it fits that his backstory is very unclear and messy/dkesn't make sense even when you have clues (like DICE for example)

Him not being given any credit for his plan in chapter 5 also solidifies him being perfect for this, as he wasn't written down to be remembered, leaving him with no legacy and no history

I take his ultimate to mean he is the perfect leader, so he fills a groups gaps and the support or drive, depending on what is needed, which is what I think a leader should be. Here, it would be used the way he did in the DRV3, which is to say he turned people against him (either by writing down false history and acting it out or making the planet hate him specifically therefore throwing the repeating history off it's rails with a new factor)

A lot of people would mistake him for a Masked Fool. He is friends with a bunch of them though and uses it to his advantage

Because he is so elusive and has very similar ideals to Mythus, he'd probably be given a lot of power. Deciphering the messed up history and stories he leaves behind is a giant pain

Would go very heavy on the planets that constantly repeat their own history, especially if it involves lots of killing and unreasonable authorities doing it

Hates the IPC, constantly messes with their records and

HOWEVER for the Elation:

Being a Masked Fool or even an Emenator would fit him becuase he loves pranks and subtly changes the situation is ways to fit himself (which is a characteristic of Aha)

Messing with people, making fun of people, having his own agenda and generally orchestrating everything from the background works as well.

And Shuichi would probably be part of Genius Society and blessed by Nous, the Aeon of Erudition:

As is customary for anyone in the GS, he would live a life engrossed in his own work, trying to find the truth of cases across the cosmos

The cases he solves are very important, usually solving mysteries connected to important figures in the universe or were unsolved for years before being solved by him, prompting Nous to actually notice him

A lot of people dislike him for revealing corrupt leaders, especially the IPC, because he exposed how horrible they were and as a result the IPC was unable to invade his home planet

Accidentally solved a case where an Aeon was involved, it was a really big scale conflict/event and he got involved, then solved it

Is curious about the Aeons since (and because he was blessed by Nous). Has been invited to work on the Simulated Universe, where he tries to solve historical events like the Swarm, dissapearance of Aeons and what could've happened to them

Probably constantly getting fucked with by Kokichi, by having his records of cases and notes of findings from years ago altered. He gets targeted because of a case he solved earlier in his life, where he exposed that someone messed with the evidence, that person having been Kokichi

He always figures out when his records were messed with, while alse realising that Kokichi was the one doing it, but he could never solidly prove it, causing him to continue his research on the other

Their end comes when Shuichi fully realises who Kokichi is and finds out everything there is to know. None of the information makes sense, accept for the others name. He then dubs Kokichi a "living lie" and calls him by the only things he's certain is true, prompting the Eminator of Enigmata to start fizzling away, as he has become "real" because of Shuichi solidifying him as "real" and "true" by the use of his name instead of a "lie" and "nonexistent" or "altered"

(this is because the Enigmata wants history to be obscured and therefore untrue, which is why I believe it's Eminators would follow, having fabricated lives with no records to show their true history.)

Shuichi would then spend his whole life trying and forget Kokichi's true name, just so he could see him one more time.

[b1adie]

oh my goodness those vegetables are juicy. he has to get another model now right??? theyll give him another one wont they??????????????

EVENTUALLY I GUESS. BUT MAN. WHAT
