#evelyn lore

[totaleclipse573]

Hey! I would like to know more about Evelyn's amnesia because amnesiac characters fascinate me. :) Was it a traumatic brain injury? Was It related to the gravity gem? Does she ever get flashes of her old memories? What would have to happen for Evelyn to get all her memories back?

Yeah this took long I was overthinking 😅 Anyways

(Slams fist on table) YOU. YOU ASK FOR EVELYN LORE?? (Technically anyway.) I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS MOMENT. I HAVE BEEN ASKED TO OC RANT. THIS IS SO SO GREAT. I’VE HAD THIS IN MIND SINCE SHE WAS BEING DRAWN. SHE WAS JUST TRYING TO GO AND HAVE FUN.

Bit of a long post warning bc it will basically be an Evelyn lore post, as her amnesia led to a BUNCH of things happening with her lore wise.

So, to set the scene and all that, I want to go to a little bit before THAT happened. Evelyn grew up in a multitude of places, due to both of her parents being archeologists who weren't around often, but still cared deeply for their two kids. It inspires Evelyn, who wants to go off and explore new places in the world that they’ve never been to before. And now that she’s old enough to do so, she’s waving her family goodbye. Kit doesn’t want to see her go!! :(

But she makes a promise to her little brother, that regardless of where she ends up, she’ll always come back to see him. She’d never forget about him! She and Kit were always really close, despite all their petty sibling arguments. Played around and joked a lot…he would miss that.

Her parents are all over the place about this. Does she know where she’s going??? Does she have a set plan?? Where will she stay? Did she pack everything she needed for this kind of thing? We’ve been traveling for a long time, you know, you know what you should be bringing right?? Oh god what if she gets lost??? What if she’s not happy where she ends up?? Of course they support her but it’s kinda risky when you think too much about it-

Evelyn ASSURES them that she’ll be fine XD She has a set first destination place, knows where she’ll be living, has a method of transportation she’ll need to get to, AND KNOWS HOW TO, DON’T WORRY, and she’s sure she’ll be very happy there. And don’t worry, she also has a set date to come back and visit (Kit is already marking his calendar.)

With that and a bit more being said, she’s finally off! Her family was currently in this really weird area…she thinks her parents were involved with some kind of cave exploration? And that’s why they moved near here? (Don’t ask how there is a house near this place. It’s for the plot. I haven’t thought about the logic of that specifically yet XD) Not seeing any caves around here smh…..

Turns out they were underground caves. Everything goes downhill from here :D

Slight misstep, the ground apparently wasn’t very solid at this point of the long journey just to get to transportation from this area, and it caused her to fall through. Upon impact with the ground after the long fall, she passed out, suffering a severe traumatic brain injury. (Not dead! Somehow. Plot.)

Much later, she woke up with no memories. No memory of why she was here, where this was, why she couldn’t think, why she felt so, SO dizzy, nauseous, why everything was blurry and confusing….why was she bleeding? Maybe if she could get up, she could find out why…?

Well that made everything feel so much worse.

Trying to walk was hard. She was all shaky and unbalanced. Something bugged her to keep going, though. She didn’t know what, but it was there. So she did, even if it felt awful. And, after what felt like an eternity…light? Light that hurt her eyes…everything else was dark. Maybe that was where she had to go. 

Soon enough, rocks. Many rocks. Beneath a pile of large ones,  she could see a faint glow. A bluish one? Maybe she should try and get it out…she can’t move the rocks, they’re far too heavy. That was a dumb idea. Obviously better one : there seems to be a crack in between these rocks where the glowy thing is glowing. Put the hand in. 

Confused and very much unable to think clearly, she made an attempt to reach in and grab whatever the source of the glow was. It only resulted in her hand remaining stuck in there. After a little while things seemed hopeless. She had just doomed herself in the stupidest way possible! Great work, Evelyn. (Where did that name come from…?)

Then, she had decided to give up struggling. 

There was soon a searing pain on the back of the hand trapped in the rock pile. She could do nothing but scream, it wouldn't stop, the light was becoming brighter by the second. Unknown to her, the glow had come from a strange gem that had, too, been stuck between the rocks. And it was forcibly attaching itself to her own hand. Burning away at her glove so that it could fuse onto her fur. The pain was eventually over, and the burning feeling stopped, but Evelyn felt far more drained then before. To this day she claims the gem "saved her" from what would have been an eternal prison. It had some kind of special power... like it could manipulate gravity itself. Both she and the rocks had floated, after all. What other explanation was there for that? After she escaped from the cave, she was found by Eggman, who took notice of these odd abilities she seemed to have. Although the cause of this was probably the gem on her hand, she could still be useful. Perhaps there would be some way to remove it and dispose of her later (there was not. There were attempts. She has scars to prove it. But she agreedto everything, so…)

Thus, Evelyn instead ended up joining the Eggman Empire, with no memory of her past other than the cave incident, and this. Its all she knows, and oftentimes she wonders why that is. Even so, she learns to adapt to her new life, gaining a newer, (annoyingly, to some) sassier personality. She once rivaled with Starline, but quit shortly after he was fired, realizing she wanted to do and find things out her own way, do whatever SHE chose to do, rather then just following Eggman around all the time.

As of now, she is on a team with Starline (ironically, although they still do despise one another.) and Doleon, which is called "Team Gem." She isn't around all the time, but even so is the most qualified to be called their "leader" of sorts. She's still very lost on her past, but tries to convince herself that if she hasn't been able to remember it for all this time now, then it probably wasn't worth remembering, and that she should focus more on the now. Whether or not that was for the best...she tries not to think to hard about that one.

Her parents and Kit had no idea what had happened to her. Was she lost? Had something bad happened to her? Had she gotten too caught up in her adventures and forgotten to pick up the phone? Every single time…? Had she lied when she said she would come back…? That doesn’t seem like her. They also notice how it’s affecting Kit, too. Look at him, his ears are droopy all the time now…clearly he wasn’t in a good state. They’d still try and look for Evelyn, but Kit needed a lot of comforting. He thinks he’s been abandoned by his own sister…

…Where did he go??

>:D

Now, as for the other two questions : 

She doesn’t exactly get flashes? More like feelings. Feelings that a certain thing or place or person might be familiar. Extreme deja vu. Never ends up going full circle into a revived memory though

I don’t know if she CAN get her old memories back tbh. Maybe a few, if something really big happened, but never all of them. She’ll never have her whole past back. But that’s okay, the present is pretty great for her, it seems. Why live in the past at all?

Evelyn Lore

So Evelyn’s a daughter of Athena. She’s known that her whole life, but always lived peacefully with her dad Steven Thorne outside of camp. Until she met Roman. He was a son of Aphrodite, and the two fell in love. But since Athena and Aphrodite have a rivalry, Evelyn’s mother said they couldn’t be together. They of course, didn’t listen. One day Evelyn’s father caught the two of them together, and he knew he needed to tell Athena. Athena was furious, and she killed Roman in front of Evelyn and forced her to go to camp. Since Evelyn loved his voice, Athena took away her hearing too. (She can hear now, thanks to hearing aids from the Hephaestus kids.)

When the Nemesis saw how bitter and heartbroken Evelyn was, she took the opportunity. She made Evelyn her champion, and gave her the power to summon vengeful spirits. Now Evelyn simply wants revenge.

But Evelyn didn’t seem to mind though, suspicious 🤨

Caleb definitely did mind though 💀

[findafight]

Been thinking about another time travel au...

But this time, it's Robin. Just. Robin. She lands the Friday before Will goes missing, and she immediately assumes Steve went with her. Because of course he time traveled with her, why wouldn't he?

Until she gets to school and sees Steve flirting with Nancy and joking with Carol and Tommy. His eyes glance over her without recognition and she realizes she's alone. She panics every morning period until deciding to just go up and corner Steve at lunch and explain to him, try to prove to him she's actually his best friend from the future, and get help.

It ends up with her sitting on the floor of the boys bathroom crying, holding onto (a very confused and mildly freaked out) Steve's hand, and telling him that her day has sucked because how do you even deal with timetravel without your best friend? How do you deal with trying to save the world without them? She can't do this without him and she's freaking out and she wants her best friend back.

And Steve going "hey, uh. Okay. So... you're my friend in this weird future you're trying to stop? Prove it."

Which is something Robin can do. She stares at him for a long time, thinking, and Steve's huffs

"yeah okay. Super weird prank or whatever. Don't bug me again." And goes to stand up but Robin tugs his hand towards her and stops him.

"you are so impatient! I'm trying to think of something to say that won't freak you out and has actually happened! Gimme a minute!"

And Steve raises his eyebrows but he does wait.

"your aunt Ev." She says, finally. "She was your favourite grownup. Loved star trek. You cried so hard when she died and- uh. At her funeral, your dad got mad at you."

Steve blinks at her, brows furrowed."How...how did you know that? Nobody knows that."

Robin smiles. "Dingus. I'm your best friend from the future. You did."

Steve frowns. "Tell me something else."

"okay" she nods "you and Tommy tell everyone both your first kisses were with Carol but the day before you kissed each other."

"what the fuck."

"do you believe me now? Because seriously I need your help with this but I can keep going."

Swallowing Steve nods. Gives her a hand up.

"great. Okay. So, I think we need to tell Jonathan and Nancy about this. Then go to Joyce and Hopper. I'm not quite sure? You were always better at gameplans honestly."

"what about Tommy and Carol?"

She looks at him, and tilts her head (the same way he does) thinking. "Sure. Why not. They'll be suspicious why we're so buddy buddy now anyways."

I’ve been kinda out on Owl House for a while but I’m thinking about. How Evelyn died not knowing that some day, her choices were going to give a good, wonderful human the tools to save her home and her people and finally defeat the person who murdered her best friend.

Evelyn gave Luz the path home without ever intending to. She passed down her legacy and left a complicated thread of tragedy and love in her wake. Her choices saved Hunter’s life, a kid she’d never know but still impacted heavily. While her name had been long erased from what she had done, in the end Luz was able to take what she and Papa Titan and those who came before had left and do something good with it.

OKAY - obviously this is not an official version of the final card set its just a little preview because the rest is a secret 🤫 (LAUGHS MANICALLY)

BUT this post is MOSTLY to announce that the second chapter of my fan fiction about Caleb, Evelyn, and Philip is DONE (YIPPEE)

The High Priestess featured in this card is Evelyn (obviously) because she is introduced in this chapter (hehehe)

[theprinceandthewitch]

Rewatching Witches Before Wizards is such a surreal experience tbh.

Adegasts whole "The prophecy speaks of a young human girl who will claim the celestial staff and free this world from an ancient evil" turned out to be true... in an episode that explicitly states Luz ISN'T a chosen one and she's not going to get what she wants out of TBI.

So that's - hm. that's weird

... It's weird how Luz actually does receive her staff and frees the world from an ancient evil because she won the favor of a god who can see into the future and the past... the glyphs are also given to her by this god.

And then this show has the audacity to like, completely barrel head first into becoming a wishfullment story by making the villain absent in season 1. Luz gets to live her little Azura fantasy, despite the show saying she isn't going to get her little Azura fantasy.

The other surreal part of this episode is Adegast and Nevareth being used as foreshadowing for Belos and Hunter. And it's like, really interesting to me, because Belos also uses Hunter - a prince - as an extension of his power like Adegast does with Nevareth. And just like Adegast, Belos is an illusionist - except he doesn't need to cast illusions to manipulate you. He simply creates narratives to further his goals.

See, I could forgive season 1 being for like that IF it turned out this entire season was Belos' teehee haha psyop prank on Luz. But it's not... TOH is just a wishfullfillment story that tried to trick you into thinking it's not.

This just makes the Kiss in SAI even more suspicious in retrospect...

Wittober - Day 15 - Regret

P.s. I love you if you noticed the shape of the blood splatters on Philip mirror his mutualization.

Sorry for the edgy post lmao, there the unbloodied, undarked version down below

[herearedragons]

Please, share your favourite facts about your DA OCs! 👀

hi!!! I'm going to try (and probably fail) (update: yes. I failed) to keep the lore brief. also I'm going to have a Veilguard Spoilers Section at the end of the post, so everything before that is spoiler free

Kyana Amell: semi-recently received a lore update where she was possessed by a Hunger demon as a child and saved via a ritual like the one Connor went through (and paying for that ritual probably was a big factor in flushing the remains of the Amell family fortune down the drain). the ritual mostly succeeded, but a piece of Hunger demon essence, not powerful or sentient enough to really take over, remained attached to her and over time created a weird symbiosis with her. during Broken Circle, when trapped in the Fade, she discovers that she can consume spirits to fuel her strength, which does almost kill her but once it doesn't she's just. this half-abomination now. and she eats spirits. which is actually what fuels her "spirit healer" abilities, because post-her weird abomination metamorphosis most spirits will clock her Predator Vibes and just won't go near her. her teeth get really sharp.

Secret Hawke: I love her silly name so much. it started as a joke, as in I wanted a new Hawke and I had a concept but not a name so when posting about her I called her "(my) secret Hawke" and then I went "wait, Secret is kind of a great name". and it fits her really well because she operates entirely through bits and theatrics, because that's what her version of Malcolm did. he gave his daughter a funny name because it was funny, but also because it was guaranteed to draw attention. everyone would remember the funny name. when they went to Chantry services together they would do a bit where Malcolm would approach the revered mother and solemnly announce, "revered mother, I must confess, I have a secret,,," and his daughter would pop out from behind his back and go "it's mee!! :D" and everyone loved that joke. they knew that Malcolm Hawke was a funny guy who gave his daughter a funny name, which was an endearing and acceptable kind of weird, so they never bothered to suspect them of anything deeper. when Secret meets Charade she's DELIGHTED. the trickster name cousins

Neilar Lavellan: world's most selfless guy (<- derogatory). his entire being is basically "clan loyalty Gone Wrong". he was raised to value community above all else, including himself, which served him mostly right as Random Scout #3 who survived by unquestioningly trusting his clanmates and knowing they'd do the same, who could always count on being loved and accepted as long as he was doing his part, but that backfires SO BADLY when he gets elevated to a solo leadership position in a culture that's not familiar to him. he doesn't know how to advocate for himself. he doesn't really know how to exist alone, either. and he figures it out, slowly, over the course of DAI, but it's all too little too late, and he hasn't built up his will enough to save him from possession by the Sorrows. (shoutout to the joined worldstate with @curiouslavellan's Halveri where she - mage, First, Inquisitor, the one with the mark - was meant to drink from the Well, but got incapacitated by an injury before they got there, so Neil did it. because he knew Hal wouldn't want the Well to go to Morrigan, and he doesn't want it either. so he offers himself up instead)

Evelyn Trevelyan: I've been really leaning into her Liar Aspect and enjoying it GREATLY. lying is her primary fear response, and the more scared she is, the wilder the lie gets. I love her specific brand of Defense Lying, which consists of staring the other person right in the eye, making the most insane claim she can think of, and then basically daring them to prove it wrong. and most won't, because who would ever choose to lie about something like that? examples include: her being caught at the Conclave wearing Circle enchanter robes (because her old clothes became unwearable and that's all the rebel mages could scrounge up for her. probably taken from an enchanter who died.) and then just claiming (as a baby-faced 23-year-old) to be an enchanter instead of the un-Harrowed apprentice she is because maybe THAT won't get her killed. other examples include: that one time in the joined worldstate with @curiouslavellan's Aurelia (yes hello Elly, I'm tagging you TWICE) when her freshly un-Tranquil-ed co-Herald ran away from Skyhold and, when questioned, she stared Cassandra in the eye and went "I saw Andraste in my dream tonight. Aurelia ascended to Her side". GOOD LUCK PROVING THAT SHE'S LYING. Solas and Bull are playing chess with their lies. Evelyn is playing chicken

Aqun Adaar: currently having a LOT of fun with his Solasmance worldstate. I wanted to find a canon LI for him for a LONG time and none of the canonically romanceable options were really clicking, then Pillars Of Eternity got me into romancing the unromanceable and several Solasmancer friends got me to care about Solas JUST enough to go "well okay HOLD ON - " and holy heck. The Themes I managed to get out of this. the dichotomy of Guy Who Wants To Fix Everything and Guy Who Will Tear It All Down. Aqun is to the mortal world what Solas is to the world of spirits: endlessly fascinated by its works, its fiercest defender, its chosen champion, believing himself personally responsible for its fate. he's also a scholar, engaging with the world by studying it, and there's just this. really fun dynamic forming when I look at Solas as someone hiding his true nature, but also kind of desperate to be studied, understood, solved like a riddle. which would be REALLY BAD for him if it happened. but he can't find it in himself to stop Aqun from trying

May Cadash: big fan of the duality of brute and mastermind she has going on. she's been a bruiser for well over a decade. she was also going to rule a crime family once (and, depending on the worldstate, she might still do that!). she spent a lot of time training herself out of thinking, but she never quite managed to do it, and despite herself, she observes. and she questions. and she thinks and thinks and thinks. and she can sharpen herself into a blade or blunt herself into a bludgeoning hammer and throw herself at a foe and survive, but she can never stay just that, no matter how much she wants to. because her biggest strength isn't her physical strength, it's her will, and will needs purpose and direction and her mind will always be looking for one. and she finds one, either in the form of reclaiming her place as the head of the Cadash family and trying to steer an empire of evil to do "good", accepting that there will be blood on her hands, or in the form of letting the family business burn and becoming a Seeker. (also pondering the idea of her getting Seeker powers from being touched by Not-Justinia in the Fade either way at the beginning or in Here Lies The Abyss. also pondering a Cullenmance AU for her. many May thoughts, all in the background for now)

Bonus Round: Woe! Veilguard Rewrites Be Upon Ye (spoilers after this point)

Secret Hawke: I was toying with the idea of her being visited by Flemythal multiple times during DA2, extending the weird prophecy moment to Mythal having a weird curiosity towards Secret in general (maybe as a potential vessel? Morrigan DID get away from her, after all), and after learning the Morrigan and Mythal situation in Veilguard I thought, well. Secret "did not hesitate to leap" and stayed behind in the Fade, not as a self-sacrifice but because she was actually convinced she could make it, and... what if she survived the Nightmare, and was left to wander the Fade alone, and eventually something (Mythal) reached out and promised to save her if she agreed to become a vessel. what if it's Secret chilling in the Lighthouse in Veilguard instead of Morrigan. something something, the woman who was trying to hard to become a story swallowed up by mythology that isn't even hers. also she romances Merrill, which is A LOT in this context

Aqun Adaar: one of the biggest plot changes I made to him as a Solasmancer was making him drink from the Well (the other one is that he does IHW instead of COTJ, but that is true for all worldstates, it just works better with his obsession with red lyrium and Fixing Everything, I think. the Well is a Solasmance exclusive), which he SPECIFICALLY does because Solas abruptly breaking things off with him and acting weird and refusing to EXPLAIN nullifies most of the trust Aqun had for him, so when Solas pleads with him not to drink from the Well, Aqun does it because Solas told him not to. which, after the whole thing with Solas absorbing Mythal's essence, binds them forever! yippee! that, alongside with the romance, is why I think Aqun is going to be way more involved in the story of whatever my fanfiction version of Veilguard will end up being. it also gives me some fun ideas to play with in regards to the ending, because Aqun would not hold hands with Solas and walk into the Veil (they've been trying to kill each other for ten years. Varric is FREAKING DEAD.), but also locking Solas away forever feels like a kind of abrupt and not fully satisfying ending to the version of their story that exists in my brain. specifically these two ideas:

remember how slumbering Evanuris could speak through dragons that were bound to them? well, Aqun, congrats on being Solas' dragon. kind of. you probably have dragon blood and you have this magical bond to him so now you're his last point of access to the waking world and can probably talk to him in your dreams. which I know you're not happy about, but hey, when you die this window into the mortal world is going to die with you and then he'll be TRULY alone, so, you know. maybe settle the things you can still settle while you can.

whatever remains of Mythal's will compels Aqun to follow Solas into the Veil at the last second either to hurt both of them as much as possible (this is the vengeful fragment of Mythal that has incomplete memories and thinks Solas betrayed her, or whatever), or for some hidden agenda of hers, I don't even know. the point is that they're now trapped together and I can put them in surreal psychological/existential horror scenarios, and also maybe there's a goal to try to get Aqun out. or maybe not. which would be heartbreaking in his own way, because, remember, he is to the waking world what Solas is to the Fade. him being separated from it forever is cruel. but also, accepting that separation is something Solas wasn't capable of, but Aqun might be. I don't know. I'm still rotating that one in my mind

*Evelyn held her head in pain and reeled back as Bill Cipher entered her mind. She could feel the control over her body slowly slipping as feeling and thought are torn apart. Suddenly, she saw herself being pulled away, and she realized she was standing over her limp form. Evelyn’s soulless body slowly stood, a small laugh erupting into a full cackle. Yellow eyes stared at her ghost, a wide smile plastered on its face.*
