TSAU!Donnie's Ninpō Explained!

The first ability Donnie unlocks is the ability to see mystic energy! Objects or people with with mystic energy has this colourful glowing aura you could call it, the more mystic energy the more brightly is glows. For example - Mikey already has a very bright aura naturally, which becomes even brighter when he is actively using magic! ..... All of this is to say, Donnie found that out the hard way when he used his mystic sight on Mikey when he was using magic and Donnie as a result got a little bit fucking blinded!

All yōkai and mutants are naturally mystic in nature, they always have a visable aura because of that. Humans are not mystic, so they don't have that aura. HOWEVER! Humans can learn how to use magic through certain means like, y'know, Ninpō for example! When a human uses magic, they do have mystic aura, but only while actively using mystic powers.

(Also Donnie totally accidentally discovered that the "teapot" had bad vibes because his mystic sight lol)

After a while Donnie is able to start making constructs out of his Ninpō. Initially however, he can't really form complex designs, it's mostly just blocks and walls, very simplistic shapes. But it turns out he can use these simpler constructs as effective shields! Which is good considering his soft shell as well as the fact that his battle shell in the AU wasn't built to be used as armour. Both he and April gets a lot of use out of the extra defense.

With quite a bit of practice Donnie is able to actually generate specific and more complex designs! Which means that yes, to the horror of friend and foe alike, Donnie can and will summon an entire arsenal of firepower, yikes. He's not limited to firearms though, he's able to generate all kinds of technology and machinery (drill!!!!)

To create these mystic contructs, it does require Donnie to have a good understanding of what it looks like, how it functions, etc. His imagination and his knowledge of technology are what sets a lot of the limits on what he is able to create, if he can build it in his lab then he can build it with his Ninpō. This particular ability requires a lot complex thought, if Donnie wasn't so smart he wouldn't be able to pull it off as well as he does.

Another limitation is that maintaining the contsructs is very energy-consuming, he'll quickly exhaust himself if he keeps them around. He'll usually only summon constructs very briefly for an attack and then immedietly dismiss them.

The way that Donnnie's Ninpō manifests itself is already very technology-oriented, because of that he can interact with ordinary technology through his Ninpō. Personally I haven't figured out the details of what exactly that can look like, but there's definitely a lot of possibilities to explore here.

One thing though, as Donnie's Ninpō grows more and more powerful overtime, a side-effect of that is that if he gets really pissed off or otherwise very emotional, he'll accidentally make the technology in his near viscinity go haywire lmao. (This has the risk of making him even more angry, which just worsens the problem, and so on haha)

I really like the idea of Donnie being the second most powerful mystic user out of his brothers, after Mikey of course. And because he's mostly self-trained, he doesn't have the best understanding of how to properly control his powers, which evidently can become a bit of a problem. Donnie eventually agrees to let Draxum help him get a better grasp on his mystic abilities after the Hamatos and the Draxums become more friendly with each other.

So uh. About how Donnie kinda accidentally infused Shelldon with mystic energy while creating him which caused the robot to develop a kind of soul? Yeah so because of that Shelldon's mystic energy if linked to Donnie's, which means that Shelldon more or less gains access to the same abilities as Donnie does! He's not quite as powerful as Donnie, and he still needs to practice to fully get a grasp on these powers as well. But point is, that's how Shelldon gains acess to Ninpō in the AU! (He also notices their fucked up "teapot")

----------

Anyway that basically summarizes it! A lot of these ideas are headcanons I have for canon!Donnie as well honestly, the AU is just an excuse to explore these concepts. Donnie's ability to summon fucking firearms and military equipment is also something I've thought about, I wanted to try to think how it would work for him while also putting some limitations on it. ANOTHER THING I like the idea of Donnie's tech constructs basically being the same ability as when Raph creates constructs of himself. The difference lies with that Donnie is a massive nerd so his first instinct is to recreate his own tech with the Ninpō. While Raph being someone who is already so physically strong would naturally use his Ninpō to recreate his own greatest weapon, which is himself. (Donnie uses his brain, Raph uses his brawn, who would've guessed)

Day 30!!! AAAAHHHH WE MADE IT!!!!!! THIS EVENT WAS SO FUN AND EVERYONE DID SO WELL!!!!! ❤️💜🧡💙

These designs were a Meet the Robinsons AU that I fumbled Bc I got overwhelmed w options fjsjjd Mikey was Goob (kinda?) and RaMona kids went back in time to hunt him down to make their fam whole again. It spirals Bc the hat (Doris) still exists and was invented by Donnie. She still wanted revenge on Donnie (and Leo and Raph) Bc they tried to “kill” her. Alas I got lost in the details and plot so I had to drop it 😔 anyways more info on the kids below

Jennika: Just as Raphael was his father’s son Jennika is her father’s daughter. Both the good and the not so good qualities jumbled together to make him go Gray as he had done for Splinter. I love seeing the analysis where ppl show Raph and Splinter were near copies of eachother and wanted to play on that with Jennika. The story will be diff obvi as Jennika won’t be a raphael clone that’d be boring. She has her own dreams and destiny which conflict w Raphael’s overprotective parenting and worry which went overdrive after Mikey’s disappearance.

Venus: imagine living in the shadow of someone ya never even met and ur constantly second guessing if ur acting in such a way in order to keep ur fam happy or if u r truly living as urself. Rip to Venus she is a ray of sunshine and optimism with a flair for rustling up good natured trouble which often invokes her loved ones to draw connections to Mikey. Venus is a people pleaser to a drastically toxic point where she’ll ignore all of her own issues and worth so long as her loved one(s) are doing ok. Shes learning magic from Shinigami and is killing it ✨

Y’thann: most likely to plan and win an all out war! He’s very analytical and quick thinker however he’s the most arrogant little shit you would ever meet. No one would ever believe you tho as he’s also an incredible lair and a momma’s boy. Often found hanging around Uncle Donnie’s lab learning and building tech and weapons. He prefers salamandrian stuff and loves training with his mother. He gets away with so much Jennika loathes him for it as she is constantly thrown under the bus for it.

Koya is their cool/insane older cousin. Sorry Koya fans she isn’t a mutant but she does have a pet falcon named Koya JR.

April/Donnie/Casey have a kid that Casey found and took home but never designed her rip

Leo has the highest honor of being AroAce w no children Bc he’s got a hoard of nieces and nephews to train and care for

Not the best description but that’s the jist my notes on this are all over the place as I slowly lost my mind and plot

THE LONG-AWAITED PHOEBEPHEEBSPHIBS 2K DTIYS!!

(Versions without text and effects under cut)

Here it is! Finally, after so long...

So uhhhhh rule time I guess?? Y'all have free rein with this! Draw UIFY Mystic Overdrive Mikey however you want! Add as much or as little detail as you please! Take your own interpretation on his powers/eyes/chains/ichor/etc., use any palette or colour design you want, any pose, yadda yadda yadda. Your only prompt is to draw UIFY Mikey with de magic handsss! ✨🫶✨

When posting your DTIYS entry, please tag me and/or use #pheebsdtiys so I can see it!

I went through a surprising amount of inner debate over what to draw, how to draw it, how excessive the lighting effects should be, how many details to include, etc. I didn't want it to be tough to draw, but I did want it to reflect some of the stuff I love to include in my artwork.

Can we see what's at the bottom of the lake if there is anything?

Leo, if he leaned more into his love for magic tricks: for my next trick, I’m gonna make myself ~disappear~ *proceeds to get lost in space for five months*

[sweeneydino]

Knight.

When your kids go missing, you'll be tearing up the whole multiverse to find them. Right after you prepare yourself ofc.

First Dad up, Next will be the one in red, then purple and orange. Why? Cause Usagi gets a special treatment. U.U

Would you all like it if usagi had just a small army of dragons or became one? I'm personally leaning towards the former cause I think it'd be badass.

Size reference ^^^ I hate keeping consistent sizes as much as I hate doing perspectives and backgrounds-

[greensketchbookart]

Nooooo I got lazyyyyyyy💀🫵

Hehehe I used so much special effects 💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀

Oh btw this is Amanda from that one ninja show 🗣️

My little ninja: spinjitzu is magic

[sorivii]

Not me randomly getting excited about a non existent rise fantasy Au I just made up in my mind 24 hours ago and then spending said hours drawing this…

So a bit of background for this if you’re interested…

I’m imagining D and Mike living with their dads in an old town filled with yokai. One day the hamato spirit has something unexpectedly happen and the family accidentally break the town in two. In short the Hamato spirit has become to powerful. Disgraced by the people the brothers decide to venture out to figure out how to stop it, since they feel a deep connection to the cracks and need to find a way to redeem their family so they can get back home. Little do they know that two other brothers are the cause of the whole ordeal… ohhhooo I know exiting right?!?? It’s absolutely not going to go anywhere but oh well fun to think about~

Donnie with white hair!?? Thought?? Bc I think it looks AMazing.

Magic ninjas au

*snaps fingers* ok so the start of this au is baron draxum funds out about a propechy involving the hamato clan goes talks to hamato yoshi and his wife tang shen who have a daughter named Miwa. Is working on making them weapons to help. Hugin and Muggin bring him four injured baby tuetles. So he also starts to make stuff to heal them. Accident happens and Yoshi and Shen have 4 new sons.

Ish happens later anf Yoshi gets mutated they all have to go to new york to hide. Boys also have magic from young ages.

Oh and Shen and Miwa are Kistune cant forget that detail especally since Mikey somehow inhetited the kitsune ability to disguies himself as a human without a disguise broach thats important.

[68spidey]

A collection of old wips and sketches that I wanted to share because I don't know if they'll ever be finished!!! And I want to share them, damnit!!!!

Mutated Donnie arc of course. Leo is big sad and it leads to his dark Leo arc which leads to Mikey's leadership arc which leads to Raph's kidnapped and thrown in a vicious space gladiator pit arc which leads to meeting Mona which leads to

Some baby turtle tots from my buddy's au because they deserve love and protection

Tiny Leo is very connected with Raph's quiet protective demeanor

Mona has some feelings about it

[phoebepheebsphibs]

I have ideas... I'm making plans.

...Let's see where they lead...

If you thought because they were kids that meant they wouldn't be exposed to the horrors... you were wrong.

[tangledinink]

Like his mother before him, Gemini Donatello is a capable and fearsome witch. He showcases his arcane abilities rarely-- which is often to the benefit of those around them.
