Lmao this post gains traction tf 😭 Guess I'll post the rest of my screenshots then. (Only got to eps 3 though before it was taken down from Youtube)
In HP world you get offensive charm! Defensive charm! Functional charm! Fuck that tho, we have biduan dangdut charm here. Bet you there is at least one variation of saweran charm
Love how the nurse is a grown woman who freaks out when she sees injured students and forced the student's friend to look for the antidote like Ma'am that's your job???
Cartoon ahh CGI
This is Gantara pretending to be a woman so the uhhh swan ladies (???) warm up to him since they don't like men
This is Gantara getting pelted by rocks because the swan ladies don't like him anyway
First of all, Rey gets healed by the swan ladies using a cheerleader chant. Second, THE NURSE IN A MAGIC SCHOOL IS WEARING THE RED CROSS SYMBOL? WIZARD RED CROSS EXISTS??
The bullying in here is more heartbreaking than the bullying in HP tbh. If the whole school cheer 'Thief! Thief! Thief!' at me in the cafetaria I will start crying
The only reason I can think of why the school has. fucking. police line is that Aldebaran grew with non-magic humans because why is there police lines???
BEHOLD, the council of teachers!!! They look more like a cult tbh. Also I love that they're having an important discussion about students in a staircase like is there no teacher's lounge?
Personally I think every scene with the magical painting would be more hilarious if the painting is that of whoever the president was at the time and it would spew wisdom of a president to students it talks to
So. I don't know if y'all know this, but there's a serialized HP ripoff made by a small Indonesian production (and afaik no money went to JKR) and I have watched the first 4 of 40 episodes and. God. It's fucking hilarious. Everything is localized, the CGI is atrocious, and tbh I spent my time watching it either cringing or wheezing my lungs out. It's definitely entertaining. Is it plagiacy? Perhaps. Does it incovenience anyone (the og creators)? Eh, I doubt that. The production is just way too small and cheap to do anything.
Anyway, I want to and WILL talk about it below the cut. (Mostly screenshots)
1. Characters
Since all of them are renamed with Indonesian names, I'll write them down and I'll use those renamed version to talk about them.
Harry = Alfa
Ron = Rey
Hermione = Vega
Dumbledore = Aldebaran
Hagrid = Megantara (Gantara/Tentara)
McGonagall = Agni
Snape = Purwa
Malfoy = Tommy
There are more characters ofc but these are the prominent ones.
2. Screenshots I took (DISCLAIMER: I watched it with 360p quality so the screenshots honestly look trash)
This is Megantara going into Alfa's house to bring him to Bineka, the magic school in this series. Since Alfa's aunt slammed the door on his face, he lets out a magical burp that blows the doors off their hinges. They hit Alfa's aunt and knock her unconscious. Shit's hilarious.
I'M CRYING WHY DOES HIS UNCLE LOOK LIKE MY COUSIN LMAO
Anyway, this is one of the many localization in this series. Basically Alfa is asking permission to go by pressing his uncle's hand to his forehead. It's a gesture of respect for older people here.
Also, the uncle is supportive in the end. Though where tf is Alfa's cousin I don't know. He was in a scene at the start.
Instead of a magical alley, we got a traditional market. Instead of a wand shop, we got a fruit vendor. Instead of a British old man with cryptic talks, we got an Engkoh-engkoh (Chinese uncle - a way to call a Chinese shop owner if he's a guy). Instead of an elegant and over the top wand-choosing ritual, we got Alfa choosing fruits at random and hoping one of it turns to a wand. He got his from a banana. I think this is W.
I love them 🥺 Megantara has the vibes of a country-crosses uncle that always brings back treats for you
First of all, the uniform is so cute I'm SO going to make a fanart of them all in it. Second, the KIDS!!! They're so round. Vega's accessories are kind of clashing, but she's a kid let her be
What I like about Purwa is that throughout the 2 episodes I have watched, his expression is ALWAYS a tired, confused one as if he's always out of the loops. I don't know what his problem is, but I really appreciate this "... ha?" face.
I have more screenshots I'll put in the reblog and continue this in a sec

hi GT! thanks again for the great chapter—loved it (as usual).
just wanted to come on here to sing you praises with just how well you write touch/physical affection especially in the most recent chapter’s first half: draco & hermione being v touchy while entering hogsmeade vs. draco’s jealousy with ron + hermione, and how you depicted draco’s reaction to both (i.e., his awareness on just how not-platonic his actions were vs failing to see that ron and hermione might not be also sharing the same thing) and the way his jealousy flares up. it’s starkly real and engaging and you just leave us wanting more.
just wondering: would there be more platon-ish (or more) moments in the realm of Lionheart, since the books were PG?
hope u have a good day!!
Thank you very much! I hope you have a good day, too.
I think of Lionheart right now as a story that rides the line between PG-13 and R (for gore, and I guess also technically for swearing, since there's been more than one "fuck.") Those things will only scale up as the story goes on, to an extent that will soon surpass the books. If the original series can be split up into "children's / young adult" around the lynchpin of Book 4, I think of the volumes of Lionheart as "children's / young adult / new adult." New adult is, naturally, more capacious as a genre than young adult is, and I'm cautiously feeling out my comfort level in the new territory it opens up.
To be completely honest, I'm still making up my mind on how far to push past canon there. I know that explicit scenes are common and welcomed in the D/H fanfic space, to an extent even expected, but the jury is out on how much it will be relevant/necessary/something that I'll enjoy writing. (I'm aware that this is a totally confusing and not helpful answer. Friend, I also wish it was not like this.) Basically, I'm just trying to figure out what the story needs.
I guess the most I can say currently is that I'd definitely be comfortable writing it — I've written it before — and for the rest, I'll play it by ear.
#greenteacup asks#lionheart spoilers#new adult is such a weird and cool genre to me it didn't exist when I was growing up#i see it as a parent genre to the new 'romantasy' species of publication#which is itself like the sentimentalist's answer to pulpy sci-fi#and fantasy has been violently segregated by age bracket in a way almost no other genre has#it's like. everything is either Teeny-Bopper Dragon Wars or fucking game of thrones#or [blatant reskin of a classic fantasy novel that probably started as fanfiction].#like i enjoyed eragon but it did start as LOTR fanfiction. which is why i (LOTR & fanfic enjoyer) enjoyed it!! why be ashamed of that??#if everyone could just drop their pride and admit they like and respect well-written fanfics#we could save the commercial publishing market for really cool new original shit! we wouldn't NEED a million eragons and HP ripoffs!#they deserve to exist! just put them on AO3 where they belong!!

#'is that a-' yeah it's a HP ripoff if you decide to get mad at me for this post realize that you're lame and renegade games is chill#ac speaks

Name: Rip Cheato
Debut: Paper Mario
Hello! I am glad you made it. You are just in time, because some guy is here. He's here looking for You! He wants to sell you a Dried Mushroom for 64 coins. Will you buy it? It's not a good deal, but consider this: he has a sort of lamp antenna growing from his scalp. I think that is pretty cool, personally.
He probably makes good use of his lamptenna, since he lives in the sewer. I bet a Sewer Man would know his fungus! Maybe his Dried Mushrooms are impeccable. Maybe he even dries them with his lamp. Don't be judgemental, now. Don't judge someone because his name is derived from "ripoff" and "cheat". Are you the kind of person who would immediately assume someone smells bad, just because their name is Poop Fartley? You better not be. Rip Cheato's name is a little deceiving because while he does sell junk for 64 coins, if you buy what he offers, he'll also sell Star Pieces for 64 coins, and Hoo-Wee! That's a Hot Commodity! I trust him. I think he's just being cheeky for fun.
Name: Chet Rippo
Debut: Paper Mario
Now this guy is whuzzah! What's the deal with this guy! Rip Cheato is weird, true, being strangely human in a game where those are quite limited, but he has a theme going on. He looks like a Sewer Man. Now here we have Chet Rippo, who is some sort of alien platypus clown umbrella? I don't know what he is, but I think it is absolutely splendid. To quote an ancient philosopher:
"Sometimes in life, there is a weird guy." -Opabinia
If I didn't know any better, I might think Chet Rippo would appear from a UFO or circus tent or perhaps a dimensional portal. He doesn't! He just hangs out in Toad Town. He's a weird guy, but a weird guy is still a guy, you know? Except this is no normal guy because he can alter Mario's abilities! For 39 coins he will raise Marios HP, FP, or BP by two points, but- and this is important- he says "heh heh". That means he's shady! For each stat he increases, he will decrease the others each by one!
This makes Chet Rippo far stranger of a guy. Someone in real life could sell you overpriced garbage. But someone in real life altering your stats for a low price? Scary to think about! Imagine someone granting you the ability to remember twice as many bug facts as you currently can, but also making the vision in your left eye worse and making you 25% more sensitive to cold. Frightening magic! But at least the guy doing it is a funny creature.
Chet Rippo appears in The Thousand Year Door as well, but like, does he really? This is a whole different design, and it's not nearly as fun... Eyes In A Void Wizards are fun by default, and so is wearing a barrel on one's head, but this game has a bunch of Eyes In A Void Wizards, and this guy used to be one of the weirdest creatures in the entire game! To hell with this guy. Let's look at his better version again.
Look at him go! Like a flapjack octopus! His arms are even like the fluttering fins! Could he truly just be a big octopus wearing a weird hat? We may never know...
#rip cheato#chet rippo#paper mario#paper mario the thousand year door#mario#mario enemies#?#mario allies#it is subjective#mario weird fellas#now that one we can all agree on surely!#mod chikako

Duelists and Merchants both have two module types where X is the "Convenience" and Y is the "Stats". Both branches are kinda stat sticks with huge downsides in their own way. Merchants might not sound like stat sticks, but they are. For their upfront cost, you're putting a lot on the field.
The convenience with Duelist is "instead of having no SP regen, you get 0.2/s when not blocking" while their stats module gives them +15% atk and def. For Merchant it's "instead of eating 3dp/3s (all of it), eat 2dp/3s (two thirds of it)" and their stats module gives them +20% atk.
Duelists hardly see use because they're expensive to deploy and have this sp regen issue, Merchants are also pretty niche but see more play. In both cases, you'll almost always see people use the X type. It's undeniable that only having most of your DP eaten away is much more manageable than all of it and same for regening at 20% rate instead of 0% (both Duelist modules also enable being fed SP from outside sources like Warfarin, Ptilopsis or Liskarm, but X is still a lot more convenient).
Only the 6 stars of these two branches actually have the Y types in the first place, which further disinsentivizes actually going for those modules - they're expensive to get! and for all three of these operators, the Y type wasn't even out at the time of their release.
For Eunectes, both modules offer a good talent upgrade. X leans further into improving SP recovery, upping her second talent from +0.2sp/s while blocking to +0.4/0.55, which is pretty huge. Y upgrades her damage boost from 115% to 123%, which isn't that much, and her Sanctuary from 20% to 28%, which is more noticeable. She basically just becomes even more stat sticky. She leans more into her nature as a clunky stat stick. The choice with Eunectes is kinda more ambiguous. Her convenience module does a lot for her, cause the extra sp regen is quite good and her skills are really strong.
But for Lee and Swalter, the convenience module's talent boost is honestly just bad.
Lee takes his stun-parry talent from costing 5 DP and stunning for 3s to costing 4 DP and stunning for 4s. This is a ripoff. The way it works is that when he doesn't have his protective buff, he consumes 5 DP instead of what he would normally take, so upgrading the X module just pulls his talent's cost in line with the reduced continuous payment (and increases stun duration by 1s, which isn't usually relevant. The cost reduction is on level 3, stun duration on level 2). The stats on it are alright. 300 hp, 74 atk vs 76 atk, 50 def on the other is mostly a wash (but I'd rather have 50 def over 300 hp on him).
His other module however, increases his ASPD drain from 14 +/- to 20 +/-, which gets doubled from 28 to 40 when there's only one enemy. 42 if you have him at least at Pot5 (I do) and if you have him on S2 (his best skill), he sits at a cool +72 ASPD passively. While also getting the extra +20% atk from Module Y's base effect. The difference of draining 29 ASPD and 42 is a 19% reduction in the target's damage output. Together with Mr. Nothing on blue, the two cut enemy ASPD by 77 which is just shy of the cap. Add Saileach and she bridges that gap. (you'll need a flagbearer to afford the two on field) and this utterly cripples certain bosses and most regular enemies. Lee is an amazing Duelist with Module Y.
As for Swalter, her Mod X increases her attack gain from her first talent from 4% per stack to 5%, which stacks up to 8 or 9 times (potentials), so she goes from 32/36 to 40/45 atk passively. That's pretty good, especially since none of her skills have attack buffs on them and just do atk% damage, but it is just a 6% raw damage increase. It also gives her 2 coins instead of 1 on skill activation, which is nicer than the 6% more damage (less if you have other attack buffs on her).
Mod Y on the other hand gives her +20% atk as a base effect, taking her from +32%/36% to +52%/56% atk through the same mechanics (DP consumed by trait), which is an 8.6%/7.6% raw damage increase over the other module, 15.2%/14.7% raw damage increase over no module. It also has better stats on it. Mod X has +200 hp, +40 atk, +50 def, Mod Y has +81 atk, +60 def. Now, as for her talent improvement, it goes for the other one of course. (Only Fartooth buffs the same talent with both modules, fun fact. Always get ModX for Fartooth))
Swalter's second talent stops her from dying when killed and instead puts her to 70%/80% (potential) max hp at the cost of 5 DP, which doubles with each activation. Cost resets when she's retreated.
Mod Y changes it to recover her health to 80%/90%, lowers the cost to 3 DP and makes it so it goes up by 3 per revive.
Instead of the revival cost going 5, 10, 20, 40, 80(, 99?) it goes 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, ...
Mod Y makes her more affordable. You can reasonable make her immortal by just deploying a bunch of Vanguards. This talent upgrade is so much more impactful than what Mod X gives, especially since Mod Y's base effect is stronger than half of Mod X's talent upgrade.
So basically what I'm saying is to not shy away from picking the inconvenient modules on these branches and lean into their identity instead of softening their drawbacks.
If you have these operators anyway, they're all 6 stars.

So I just finished reading Harry Potter for the very first time as an adult (pirated, of course, because screw JK Rowling). And uhh, I have some thoughts!
- I can definitely see how/why people fell in love with this series as children. So many different and interesting characters, Hogwarts seems like such a fun and interesting school, and the magic is essentially limitless, with so many different spell types, branches of magic, magical items, magical creatures, magical environments, so on and so forth. Had I read this series as a child, I could easily see myself becoming obsessed as well.
- I was actually pleasantly surprised with the diversity in these novels? For how discriminatory JK Rowling has demonstrated herself to be, and how long ago these books were written, there was actually quite a few characters of color and characters from foreign countries in there. Now, of course most of these characters were relegated as side characters, and some of their depictions seem kind of…questionable, but yeah, a pleasant surprise.
- I was a Percy Jackson kid growing up, and I’ve commonly seen accusations of Percy Jackson being a HP ripoff. Having read the HP books now in full, I don’t agree with that accusation, but I can kind of see why those comparisons were made. Some of the details in PJO feel eerily similar to certain details HP (alarm bells literally went off in my head when Harry received an invisibility cloak) and Rick also admitted on an FAQ on his blog that he wanted to replicate the likability of HP, so he took inspiration for certain elements from HP. Do with that what you will, I guess 🤷🏾♀️
- Continuing with the PJO/HP comparison, I do feel like the worldbuilding in PJO, while smaller, is a lot more solid than HP. I also feel like the child characters in PJO are more likable and relatable. However, there are some things that I think HP does better than PJO. For starters, I think HP does a far superior job of exploring emotions, and handling the emotional complexity and fallout of certain events, especially on the part of the protagonist. Rick’s decision to focus on constant action was a bit of a detriment to Percy’s character, as Percy’s emotional reactions to major events tended to be glossed over and/or made very brief. I’ll never forget in BoTL after the campers witnessed so many of their siblings and friends die in battle…and then everything just ‘went back to normal’, and their grief reactions were practically nonexistent. HP at least had wisdom to actually dwell on certain emotions and let them simmer for some time in the narrative. While I prefer Percy’s personality to Harry’s, I consider Harry to be a better written protagonist, because he actually gets to perform significant emotional reflection and introspection on the things that are happening around him. Harry’s emotions are presented in a far more complex and compelling manner, because of how layered and nuanced they are. I like that Harry had moments where he doubted his best friends. I like that Harry actually had changing love interests over time, and that his desires in a romantic partner evolved and became more mature over time. I like the Harry had a deeper emotional connection to the villain, a connection that he always had to grapple with the implications of. I like that each death was painful to Harry, and we actually got to hear him reflect on what each death meant to him for an extensive period of time. And oh, what a pleasant surprise it was to see Harry doubt Dumbledore in Deathly Hallows, to see Harry have such conflicted feelings about a character who had mostly been presented as being perfect and flawless up until this point. It was extremely sad, but it was very raw, and a far more realistic depiction of the messiness of teen emotions.
- Another thing that I think HP did better than PJO was the use of adult characters. I know that it’s a very intentional point for the demigods to feel neglected and abandoned by their godly parents and to have to suffer through the world alone, but at the same time, PJO makes weak use of both the gods and of mortal parents, and Chiron, as sweet as he is, isn’t exactly a complex character. Not only did HP strike a better balance between child-led adventures and parental involvement, but the adult characters presented to us are just miles more interesting and nuanced than any adult character presented to us in the original PJO series. The adults in HP had such intriguing backstories, secrets, and skeletons in their closets, all of which had a unique impact on the kids. And it’s not like having the adults present weakened the conflict, or downplayed the danger the kids were in.
- I’ve praised HP a lot, but there are some things about it that I also didn’t like. First of all, as a black woman, that slavery plotline with the house elves was absolutely insane to read, especially with the other students treating Hermione like she was nuts for wanting the house elves to gain freedom. On a related note, I also think the tense relationships between wizards and other creatures was underexplored in general. In Deathly Hallows, we clearly see that the discontent of these other creatures leads to some of them siding with Voldemort, but we’re never told what becomes of that or what becomes of the SPEW agenda after Voldemort dies. I’m assuming things didn’t just magically get better, did it?
- Another thing I definitely did not like is Romione being endgame. I am so sorry to the lovers of this ship, but Ron was so disrespectful towards Hermione throughout the series to an extent that I cannot, in good conscience, get on board with. I, for the life of me, cannot understand why Hermione is attracted to him or would want to spend the rest of her life with him, and she deserves so much better! In my world, she would have ended up with Krum or Neville, or just literally anyone else other than Ron.
- Harry and Ginny are more tolerable to me as an endgame couple, but I just wish that Ginny had a stronger presence in the story and/or more character development. Additionally, a small part of me feels like Harry had a stronger relationship with Luna than Ginny; Luna seemed to understand him even better. I almost feel like Harry and Luna would have made a stronger pair.
- As mentioned earlier, one aspect of HP that I had trouble with was worldbuilding. There are too many aspects of it to go over all my feelings in detail, but generally, I think that the books often fell prey to lots of lore-dumping (especially at the end of the novels when it was time to unveil the secrets and mysteries). I also think that because of how limitless the magic is, there were so many Deus-ex-machina moments that didn’t feel like they got the best set-up or foreshadowing. Along that same vein, I also feel like the magic is kind of ill-defined. Now, I understand that HP utilizes a very soft magic system in which the rules are pretty limited, but it’s hard to get a sense of where the magic starts and stops. As a result, if feels like the characters are so conveniently able to solve certain conflicts because a new magic object or concept can pop up whenever they need it.
I have a lot more thoughts than this, but this post is already long enough, and the rest of my thoughts are really just minor nitpicks. And again, please keep in mind that my first time reading this series was as an adult. I don’t have the same nostalgia or attachment for it that long-time fans would.
Anyhow, I’m off to watch the movies, and I’ll be continuing to read other childhood series that I never got a chance to enjoy. Next up: Artemis Fowl, and His Dark Materials!

Man, but from that Alfa HP ripoff debacle I now have the idea of a story about an Indo-based college major where the students just study abt Perdukunan (local black magic). Classes include Santet 101, Memelihara Makhluk Gaib, Ilmu Turunan, etc etc
Obv they have a beef with the Religion-centric majors and romantic relationships with students from that major is prohibited. (There's a story going around about two upperclassmen who fell in love but died to discourage people from dating students from opposite majors.) (They didn't die, they just graduated and became professors in their respective majors so they can still meet.)
The final exam before they can graduate is of course to do Santet correctly. This results in a lot of casualties from the other majors which is why the Perdukunan major building is often getting burnt down and rebuild.

name the wips
@to-proudly-go thank you for the tag dear ^-^
If you are tagged, post a picture or write out the names of your fics/WIPS as they are in your computer/phone. (Explain the names if you think it’s necessary)
Tag as many people as you like!
okay, since this is just a 'list your wips' rather than an ask game, I'm explaining them too XD.
mutuals: the sw and hp fics are all mixed up! I've no hope of separating them! half of this will make no sense! sorry!! but this is how they show up in the drive:
from dusk to morrow: padme x satine tcw ship manifesto. staying at grandma's house in the summer made me write lesbian sex
Love and Rebellion: the NaNo :)
Once Upon a Green Haze: my baby. never gonna let it go.
Waltz No.19: wolfstar; the second time I've tried to write a figure skaing fic. only on the third draft or so
the star wars figure skating au: the third time I'm trying to write a figure skating fic. I'm nothing if not predictable. (but like. obikin yuri on ice??)
space wolfstar: this was before I admitted to myself I want to write obikin and wrote a obikin wolfstar au
any way the wind blows: an anakin-stayed-on-tatooine au
back to Scratch: hacker sirius & overqualified high school teacher remus. I felt so smart about this title
eternity and more: a sequel to the obikin force ghost fic
everyone's got a story (like this): (hehe)
everything you wanted: a fic for the musical Falsettos. basically for when I'm reading angsty gay poems. it's in second person pov??
if you want me (let me stay): that one time I fell into the trope basket and tried to write a pregnant obi-wan (shhh)
the sw gay triad epic: the bail organa/obi-wan/anakin love triangle (listen this could be so good. just imagine.)
turn off the sun (there's no light, no shadow): pretentious lyrical bs I like a bit too much. also for when I want to pretend I understand taoist philosophy
twoset ripoff (bach in black): I felt really smart about this one as well. twoset violin (the youtube channel) but it's the black brothers
what these arms can hold: a crack fic snippet series
no pressure tagging @heartofspells @shipsgaysfordays @wanderingdonut @piecesofeden11 !

Someone further down mentioned “maybe multiple someones who didn’t want him”, and honestly I think that might be it. I read the lyrics that are available and listened to what I could stand of the new ones, and they sound like they’re about more than one person. Obviously Jules is the toxic situationship, but there’s supposedly one who was a friend he was in love with but never involved with, one where a relationship faded out, and one he was with but claims he couldn’t let himself believe loved him back.
I also think some of them might just be fictional, not just that pirate garbage. There are so many direct ripoffs of books, and movies, and you could make arguments for some of his own characters, that it’s like he wants to believe he’s them. Kevin mentioned on his social media that he wrote most of that Beloved mess with Ben’s help. I don’t know if that makes it worse that more than one person is writing this crap, but he insinuated it was partially about someone who died so I’ll leave that alone. But that new song he’s singing with the blonde girl is an almost direct rewrite of I Can’t Make You Love Me by Bonnie Raitt.
It’s like he’s moved past all sense of the escapism being so important that he harps on, and into everything he consumes, including the roles he plays, being some kind of self-insert life he can dream he’s had. It’s why he’s so desperate for the rom-com. Partly marketing and a dead career, but he wants to live vicariously through the character winning the girl and being in love and happy. He’s more delusional than his fans are, and possibly even more pathetic than his haters [deserved] already thought.
Alright then, I will take your name propositions now
toxic situationship - Jules crush on a friend - ??? faded out relationship - ??? (Peyton?) no love babe - ???
And I do bet his Imma an empath and Imma opening up album is mostly fiction, like this man is as bland as flour so he probably has nothing to write about that one song america's got talent finalist had already done lol Then the obvious group efforts that someone mentioned too, both Kevin and Calahan. Like I do understand a writing room but ye know like during a TV show not an album lol OH! and the rip offs xd obviously like there gotta be a song inspired by when harry met sally too and HP meta hidden message
some kind of self-insert life he can dream he’s had - MUFFIN THIS!!1! That is exactly what is happening here. He's literally buying himself a career cuz he has no talent or other merits whatsoever to have it organically. It's his dream whatever fanfiction he would love his life to be like… TRUE THIS!!1!

i am so so so so so so normal about genshin tcg (lie) so i decided to do what if nontcg characters were in tcg . under the cut cuz this is Long
mika would be like shenhe with his skill . 2 cryo dmg and increases da mage by 1 for the next 3 physical attacks. his burst would be more like jean's he heals the entire team for 1 or 2 hp then heals your character by 2 everytime they use a normal attack once per round. lasts 2 rounds n has a 3 energy cost and 3 dice cost talent card... activatable when he uses his burst and costs 4 dice instead of 3 uhh his 2nd ascension talent and if both his burst and skill are up then the phys dmg bonus from his skill increases phys damage by 2 instead of 1
thoma's skill is like diona deals 2 pyro dmg gives 1 shield point, his burst would do 2 pyro dmg as well and give 2 shield points and uh. everytime a character does a normal attack they get 1 shield this can happen twice per round and it lasts for 2 rounds, 2 energy cost.. hard to make his burst without making a complete ripoff of yoims burst lotsa options for talent card but i think i'll go with: activatable when using his skill, 3 dice cost, when someone other than thoma gets hit with thoma's shield up then they regain 1 pyro dice. only happens once a round, based on his c1
wanderer oh wanderer.... hmm skill does 2 anemo dmg and his normal attacks deal 2 anemo dmg instead of 1 for 2 rounds. burst does 4 anemo damage with 2 energy cost and if his skill is up when he casts his burst the skill turns off. im so good at this talent card, activatable when using skill, 4 dice cost, if he swirls hydro his skill buff lasts for 3 rounds, if he swirls pyro or cryo normal attacks do 3 damage and if he swirls electro he gets 1 extra energy from the skill that swirled, based on his 1st ascension passive
rosaria !! skill does 3 cryo damage, burst costs 2 energy and 3 dice, does 2 cryo dmg and creates a summon that does 1 cryo dmg that lasts for 2 rounds. talent carddd ... i have 2 ideas, both activatable by burst with 3 dice cost: first idea from her c2, extends the summon duration to 3 rounds instead of 2. second idea from her c6, while the summon is up physical damage is increased by 1.
hmm kuki shinobu... skill does 2 piercing damage to herself, does 1 electro dmg, and puts up a summon for 2 rounds that does 1 electro dmg and heals current char for 1 hp. burst does 2 electro dmg, sets up a summon that does 2 electro dmg for 1 round, but if she's at 6hp or less it lasts for 2 rounds. 2 energy cost 4 dice talent card very simple . activatable by skill 3 dice cost, if she's at 6hp or less her skill heals for 2 instead of 1.
NILOU!! most interesting of all.... skill does 1 hydro dmg, then you can either skill again for 1 hydro damage and set up a summon that does 1 hydro dmg for the next 2 rounds, or normal attack and convert ur normal attacks into hydro dmg and increase their dmg by 1 for the next 2 rounds (you cant skill during this time).... 3 energy burst cost that deals 3 hydro dmg and the next time you take action, deals 1 extra hydro dmg like yae mikos burst and here's the fun part.. her Passive... if the team has a hydro and dendro character and is ONLY hydro and dendro then making bloom reactions doesnt make a bloom core but instead creates a summon that deals 1 dendro dmg whenever you end your round (also like yae miko) talent card.. honestly idk maybe like her c4 and if you have her skill summon up when you burst it deals 4 dmg instead of 3?? activatable by her burst w 3 dice cost
uhhh dori?? like electro diona+barbara but without shielding. skill does 2 electro dmg, burst heals dori for 2 and affects her with electro and puts up a summon that does 1 electro dmg, heals the current char for 2 and affects with electro.. 3 dice cost 3 energy cost talent carrdddd... similar to kokomi... infuses her attacks w electro and when she uses a normal attack she heals the entire team for 1 hp once per round for 2 rounds.. 4 dice cost activatable by burst and based off her c6
YAOYAOOO!!!! skill summons yuegui for 2 rounds, n yuegui heals current char by 1 and does 1 dendro damage... burst heals entire party by 2 and increases yuegui duration by 1 round if it's already up... 3 dice cost 3 energy cost talent card: any action that yaoyao does after her burst that in that round heals the entire team for 1 hp but only twice.. 4 dice cost activatable by burst and based off her first ascension passive
qiqi my dear beloved... similar to barbara her skill does 1 cryo dmg and summons her little herald of frost friend that does 1 cryo dmg and heals current character for 1 for 2 rounds... burst does 3 cryo dmg and applies 2 stacks of fortune preserving talisman on the active opposing character that even if the opponent switches its still on their active character.. whenever YOUR current char hits someone with this debuff on them, your char is healed by 2hp and the enemy loses 1 stack of the talisman. 3 energy cost 3 dice cost talent card? enemies with the talisman debuff do 1 less damage to your characters, activatable by burst 4 dice cost, based off her c4
alhaitham moment.. skill does 3 dendro dmg and gives him 1 stack (max 3) of chisel light mirror, and if he has 0 stacks when he uses his skill he gets 1 extra when he uses it. every stack increases his normal atk dmg by 1 and if he has any stacks at all his normal attacks are converted into dendro dmg. he loses 1 stack at the start of each round. burst deals 4 dendro dmg with 0 stacks and every stack increases the dmg by 2, removes all current stacks, 3 energy cost 4 dice cost. if he has 0/1/2/3 mirror stacks when using this he gains 3/2/1/0 new mirrors in exchange. talent card: activatable by normal attack, regular na dice cost, when he uses a charged attack he gets 1 mirror stack and this can only happen once a round, based off his first ascension passive
this is. all i could think of right now . i could make more if this goes well/if someoen asks me but there are very few other characters that don't have tcg cards that i didnt put here. i love genshin tcg
