#leaning maybe towards Zloy being human like Pix and Lyarrah being a fae - idk yet

I kinda wanna write a fic about the Hermits being the Wild Hunt.

Xisuma as the defacto leader just because no one else wants that kind of responsibility and eyes upon themselves, but in return the other hermits (often Joe) all help with Wild Magic and all the heavy burdens that come with the leadership.

I have some thoughts about some of the hermits and wanna ramble on about it without spoiling a potential fic too much lmao.

I'm basing this Wild Hunt and the Faerie on my own work so ofc I wanna make Iskall and Keralis as both with jötunn blood, yet being different types of fae/vettir from eachother.

Joe Hills is one of the few, if not only, humans in the Wild Hunt. Yet he’s more other and have a stronger attunement to Wild Magic than most fae.

Cleo having the absolutely most terrifying reputation. All hunters heal faster than most fae, but she gets up from things that would 100% kill any other fae. Rumours say that even the Gan Ceann gave up on claiming her life, but that’s obviously ridiculous....

Cub and Scar was a part of the Vex Monarch’s court. They can still weild Vex magic, but what they actually are, their former positions, what went down before they joined the Hunt is kept mostly secret ;>

I also rlly wanna utilise the hivemind in one way or another.

They would probably eventually down the line become hunters, but I think I'd wanna keep Pearl and Gem as monarchs of their own courts. I would draw inspo from Gem’s Empire s2, but probably go more Lunar aesthetics for Pearl. OR have her court be like the biggest mystery ever (except for Grian) you only really meet her outside of it and she’s not consistant with the way she present herself or what she tells about her own court.

And thus I transition into mcyt crossover time.

Def taking some empires folks into this story as (mostly) monarchs and other courted fae. Probably a mix of s1 and s2? Joel will 100% be based on s1 and Lizzie can go either, but I'm leaning towards s1 for her because of Joel lol. Could also consider making her a jötunn. Ancient beings that are forces of nature and most of em are either gone or in deep slumber. It fits her s1 lol. Fwhip needs to be s2 obvs. Goblins are fae and the way you get goblin children was such a cool world building move I lowkey wanna steal the idea for my own.

I've thought a lot about about Empires being fae courts before and I tried making Pixlriffs as a court ruler work in many ways. And while the ideas I've had are good. None beat the idea of him being a human that's been in the Faerie for so long it has changed him a little. You often find him in ancient courts and ruins and he’s definitly the one you’d go for gossip news about the happenings in the Faerie. I would either give ZloyXP and Lyarrah the same treatment, or they vould be uncourted fae that befriended this odd human.
