I’m wishing my character Micc a very happy birthday 🎉🎂

[umbramatic]

Okay it's been a while since i  made this thread and it needs a few updates: 

-first Vaespar's genderfluidity has kinda equalized, so i will be referring to them as him/her from here on out. 

-the forest goddess lady in this post has a name now, Foerendell. The original plan was for Vaespar use magic mind control to get her to join him but now for several reasons she joins him willingly after some persuasion

-A new player in Vaespar's story is Kailwyn, an evil counterpart to Evithyan and one of Vaespar's lovers. Vaespar eventually bvetrays and eats her as Vaespars do. 

-The unnamed god from here has been given a name and a face - meet Coethys. What he is a god of is yet unknown but Vaespar probably fucked it up by eating him

-Vaespar and Forendell have a kid! Meet Pikshad. They were originally magically created by accident but due to the changes in Forendell's lore now came about the old fashioned way.  They don't emote much but are semi-loyal to their parents. 

-Also here's Plancto, one of Vaespar's allies. He thinks he's a big deal to Vaespar when he's not lol

-The group Vaespar leads now has a name, the Vaesparian Order. Here's their symbol!

-Vaespar has now actually gotten into Pokemon shenanigans. You can read about it here.... https://archiveofourown.org/works/43624492

-Also here's their Venomsona for Marvel/Spiderverse shenanigans

-They have also shapeshifted into a variant of V in the Cyberpunk universe

-Here's his/her more modern guise (masc version) by @mairodia

-And a fakemon form of his/her FFXIV self

-speaking of, his/her story in FFXIV has advanced, and they have entered a relationship with Kan-E-Senna. Thancred is Facebook It's Complicated

-Here's a comparison with Umbra so folks don't get them confused

-And a short story about their first encounter with one of the Miidnightverse protagonists, which you can read here: https://archiveofourown.org/works/44384200

Vaespar Lore Dump

@gay-werewolves inspired me, I'm going to do a lore dump about my special boi(/gurl), my fave OC and secondary sona, Vaespar. (READ BELOW)

The setting I invented that Vaespar is from is a fantasy setting that is both post-apocalyptic and post-human; 

in the near future, a goddess of a forgotten religion, The Midnight Lady, reawakens. She sees the state of the world, which has become even more fucked by cryptocurrency among other things, and is fucking pissed.

She promptly reintroduces magic to the world at an explosive rate, mutating all life on earth (except dogs, cats, and corvids, whom she favors) into strange new forms via a magical blight known as the Raven Plauge, and causing the collapse of civilization. 

(This also wakes up the other gods in the Midnight Lady's pantheon, who advise her that there were probably better ways but are too late to actually stop or undo her actions. They're important later.)

Most humans end up mutating into funky fantasy races, but the worst of the worst get reduced into some kind of shadow sludge. From this sludge the demons were born.

Demons in this setting are basically like the Venom symbiote. They're ineffectual small shadow blobs on their own, but they bond with other beings and give them enhanced magical power in exchange for sustenance. Now, most demons don't require much in the way of sustenance (though what that is tbd) and aren't particularly harmful, but a rarer, more powerful, and more malignant strain exists, known as archdemons. 

Archdemons are much more powerful than normal demons and use their hosts to devour the bodies and souls of others, turning into darkness to engulf and digest them. And one of them manages to find the last human.

Now exactly how one human survived has been lost to time to the point not even the gods know, but this human was once a great hero before being tempted into bonding with an archdemon. And it turns out an archdemon with a human host is EXTREMELY powerful. 

Eventually over time the archdemon and human basically merge into one being. And that being... Is Vaespar.

He's a cruel, prideful, sorcerous evil overlord type who has ruined countless lives and devoured countless people. He's immortal and nigh unkillable at this point, so many have attempted to seal him away, but he always breaks free eventually. 

His magical powers are incredibly strong, and include some degree of shapechanging ability. However, he can only perfectly *mimic* another being if it's one he's eaten.

He CAN turn into a floating face, or a snake man, or, most importantly, trans his gender. (He's genderfluid babyeeeeee! he/him or she/her pronouns, though leans former, as I've been using)

And when he absorbs enough magical power at once he transforms into his monstrous Ascending Form, which is powerful enough to devour and kill the local gods.

And he did in fact do that once!

See, Vaespar's goal in life is to transform into an eldritch god dragon and rule the world, and he attempted to devour a god (exact identity of said god pending) in order to attain that. But he just kind of... Hemorrhages all the power. And also in this setting killing a god has DRASTIC CONSEQUENCES based around whatever the god was a god of, so it fucks things up big time. HOW is again undecided but.

Vaespar eventually learns in order to get the results he wants and have them stick he needs to devour one particular god specifically: Gliar, the god of light, who's sort of a nega-him. This is around when he gets his signature outfit - it matches Gliar's and is Vaespar's most petty way of messing with him.

He does try to get to Gliar in more significant ways, however. 

See, there's this forest spirit goddess lady (name TBD) who is good friends with Gliar. She also has a girlfriend who's a flower goddess named Iuzurva. Vaespar ends up seducing and magically corrupting her to give himself more advantage against the gods and have someone to try and get him to Gliar. 

Gliar is despondent and terrified and goes into hiding. Iuzurva is even MORE despondent and falls into a despair that makes her more malevolent and eldritch. 

(Also said goddess being corrupted does a fucky to the world's forests, making them even more dangerous places. Not as bad as if Vaespar has killed/eaten her but. She has remained an ally of Vaespar ever since)

There is one person who got oh so close to defeating Vaespar. And that was Evithyan Zerdali. 

She was a powerful mage (of one of the more humanlike post-human species) and also a good friend of Gliar, who tried to figure out the secret to killing Vaespar. She was very close to uncovering the secret to killing Vaespar before he ultimately devoured her during a major confrontation, but she got him sealed away again in the process. After her death Gliar became even more reclusive and even started spreading rumors he was a false god. 

It is said something of Evithyan still lingers, however...

Vaespar is assisted in his endeavors by various minions and henchmen, and in the "present day" of the story is most closely aided by Loveland, a member of a race of frog people, who resembles a firebelly toad (and thus is Vaespar's literal toady). While not particularly malevolent in and of himself, he is fiercely loyal to Vaespar and the two work closely together. 

Vaespar also has the power to access other universes, though he hasn't bothered conquering any... Yet. (This is how I explain interactions with characters and species that wouldn't exist in his home universe.) Some notable jaunts:

-Vaespar once visited a CERTAIN Pokemon universe briefly, and even had a child named Seigbert there. However he has yet to engage in Trainer shenanigans in any other Pokemon universes. Yet...

-He has also become a Summoner in the world of Fire Emblem Heroes, and commands a cabal of fucked up and evil heroes, and had a child with one of them too, Arvis. Their daughter is named Igol. 

-He has also ventured into the world of Final Fantasy XIV, having transformed into a Viera, and is doing Typical WOL Shenanigans there

Other Vaespar Facts: 

-He has ink blot like markings on his body that reflect his nature as a human/demon fusion, though the exact pattern changes often.

-His height depends on his current form but defaults to 7'6 

-In addition to being genderfluid he's pansexual and autistic

-He does still consume normal food and drink, but the urge to consume those is different from his urge to consume other beings (though can overlap if he transforms someone into food)

-His hood has a long "tail" to it, very important

-Those things on his robe are tassels, not cravats, including the one on his neck

-Here's a chart of how his major forms all link to each other

-And a slightly outdated size chart of them next to my other sonas

And finally, because people asked: Even though he's partially a sona I don't mind if people say he's hot. I'm FLATTERED, he's meant to be. (This goes for my other sonas too.)

I tried to keep the images in this thread limited to my own art, but plenty of other people have drawn Vaespar, either because I paid them to or of their own volition. You can see them here! (remove spaces): https :// toyhou.se/ 5157929 .vaespar

This was really fun to write up and do! Feel free to ask any questions. Maybe I'll do my main sona Umbra next.

Inspired by a random comment my dad made I don't fully remember, here is a new Midnightverse creature - the skunk monkey. It is more skunk than monkey, being descended from skunks that evolved a monkey-like lifestyle after the Raven Plauge. They can and will spray from above.

ThinkTech: Success

GLOBEX INCIDENT REPORT

June 16th 2032

ER- Personal Belongings and Records

Copy 308 of 310- Private document

Some say that there is no such thing as a clean opportunity, that the perfect crime doesn’t exist. They’re wrong. You just gotta be careful.

And eager to get your hands dirty.

“Operation Forced Hand” was a success.

High Glass has been dealt a heavy blow, a mortal wound, and I doubt that they’ll ever recover. They’re bleeding customers. Public perception of the CSIGate is in the shitter.

Literally. Check your social media. #ShatteredGlass is trending.

Now, nobody is going to buy them.

In fact, Congress is planning to pass legislation. I wonder what it will do.

Happy Spectember! The Midnightverse is my place for more fantastical and sometimes silly spec evo concepts, and on that note I wanted to determine what happened to cocaine hippos there. The answer ended up being huge desert diggers with rock-like camouflage.

Court of Telov: Fair Ebih (Flash Fiction #716)

The Midnight Queen awaits another chance at life. She had been promised an earlier conception by the court of Her brothers. She was to be born from fair Ebih, the queen of Torel. Her father was to seed the womb of fair Ebih while she slept. Fair Ebih would unknowingly carry Her silence until the stars were right and the gate opened. But as she fed her daughter flesh and blood, fair Ebih learned the truth. She listened to her gods. Ebih pitched herself into the torch of Plu-Ith in a fit of blessed madness. The Midnight Queen was denied Her birthright.

The final of this batch of Midnightverse backstory characters - this is Darashin, a dark knight. Despite his fearsome looks he is quite nice and is Balires' best friend. 

[umbrasdoodles]

The penultimate of this batch of Midnightverse backstory characters - this is Balires, the ancestor of Evithyan. He is a legendary hero who managed to seal Vaespar away (and thus is the one person in this series who doesn't get killed by him/her.)
