my portrayal of Monet St. Croix (X-Men)

template inspired by this one!

—- BASIC INFO Full Name: Monet Yvette Clarisse Maria Therese St. Croix

Alias(es): M, White Queen, Penance

DOB: May 26 in Sarajevo, Bosnia (age 25-30)

Gender: Cis Female (Woman, she/her)

Sexual/Romantic Orientation: Heterosexual & Demiromantic

Species: Homo sapiens superior (Human Mutant) of Algerian Amazigh & Monégasque (Italian, French & unknown African) descent

Occupation: registered superheroine, businesswoman & occasional model, previously a private investigator & student

—- Physical Appearance (FC: Cindy Bruna)

Monet is a conventionally attractive female in her late 20s, who stands at 5'7" (1.7 m) with a toned physique and tanned brown skin. Her straight black hair stops a few inches above her waist & she has brown eyes. As M, she wears a black bodysuit with a white middle section & white gloves. As Penance, she has bright red skin, spiky hair, blue eyes & razor-sharp claws.

—- Personality

Various traumatic experiences have forced Monet to adopt the persona of an indifferent, arrogant person. In truth, she becomes incredibly attached to those who she falls in love with or considers to be her family/close friends. She's not good at mourning, being the type to become mostly bedridden for a week after losing a loved one to death or time. She is also very afraid of death--the only reasons why she actively fights against injustice as a superhero is because she doesn't want anyone to feel as powerless as she once did, & because some assholes just make her mad enough to want to punch them. Monet has an interesting sense of humor; she has no problem teasing those she finds attractive or shutting down those who say things she thinks are stupid. She has Major Depressive Disorder & PTSD as a result of her past trauma.

—- ABILITIES (nerfed as compared to in the comics)

Powers

Superhuman Physique - enhanced senses, speed/reflexes (can catch bullets), durability, strength (can press < 10 tons) & intellect

Telepathic Resistance - protects completely against mind altering

Telekinesis - used to fly at up to Mach-3 or to act offensively

Penance Form - can transform into this at will; form gives her red diamond-hard skin & razor-like claws

Weaknesses

In her Penance Form, Monet's typical superpowers all "disappear", save for her innate resistance to telepathy. She also has lost the ability to merge with her siblings.

—- Skills

Bilingualism - can speak English & French fluently

Modeling - has had a spread in Vanity Fair

Business Acumen - used while part of the Hellfire Club & X-Corp

—- BACKGROUND

Shortly after her brother Marius killed their mother as a result of his need to feed on mutants, Monet was asked to join him. She refused, so he took advantage of the family power of body merging. This turned her into the red-skinned, mute creature known as Penance & she reluctantly followed him, hoping he'd change her back into her normal form. While they journeyed together, he repeatedly fed on her, which would leave her with trauma. Eventually, they were separated. She'd end up on the front lawn of Emma Frost's Massachusetts Academy, home to her sisters Claudette & Nicole; the girls had been posing as Monet to deceive their father, but they'd end up swapping places with their sister. Monet then went by the codename M & found herself back in her normal form. She would become a member of numerous mutant superheroing teams, including X-Factor Investigations, Storm's X-Men & X-Corp, where she became known for her attitude & powers. She was even the White Queen of the New York Hellfire Club. Over the years, she would romance Synth, Madrox, Strong Boy & Sabertooth--the first, third & fourth relationships ending when each man died on different missions. When Krakoa became the international home for mutants, she moved there. She would die on a mission to destroy Mother Mold, the Sentinel maker, but the Five created new bodies for she & her deceased teammates. Monet then became one of the new chairs of X-Corp along with Angel.

Extra

She's Muslim, like her mother was

When she was a kid, she took ballet

Her favorite color is red

for the cthonic demigods: if you could possess another demigod's body for halloween, who would you pick

fascinating question! i have no clue unfortunately

WHO ARE YOU POSSESSING TONIGHT?

alabaster - perseus jackson. things will be going wrong. fast.

nico - blackbeard, for the classic pirates experience.

hazel - i agree with alabaster, actually! not because i want to ruin percy’s life or anything, i just think it’d be interesting to control the waves… and talk to horses!

clovis - i believe one of my cabinmates (dock? port?) has been doing all sorts of stuff with dream travel, which sounds like fun in theory, but oneirokinesis makes me sleepy… which defeats the whole point of sleeping :(

lou ellen - nico! i’ll be summoning skeletons ‘til i drop!! or he drops, i guess.

[stirringwinds]

just thinking about the artistic connections forged between nations, and it’s one aspect of nedpan i find really cool to ponder— it’s like “your influence on me is immortalised for the whole world to see in the brushstrokes of my greatest artist”: because of how van gogh was inspired by hokusai and hiroshige (whom were themselves exposed to dutch art and techniques). and given how nationally iconic ‘the great wave’ and ‘starry night’ are in world art? if art is part of a nation’s soul, then that’s one really meaningful way to leave a mutual influence on each other.

rottmnt handwriting headcanons

canon turtles: Raph: really messy, like barely readable to anyone but his brothers Mikey: that kinda print mixed with cursive style, also messy but readable Donnie: really fucking neat and calculated, but god damn is a slow writer. his blueprint writing is a total mess though Leo: not as messy as his brothers, he actually has some style to writing

fanon turtles: soda: that weird middle ground of really messy and really neat pop: @kiyo-void handwriting (examples below)

Dali: way too fuckin neat handwriting for a turtle who calls everyone "dude" Monet: kindergartener writing Oracle: fancy as all hell

(soda and pop belong to @pigeonsgrame2) (monet belongs to @apollothesunrat) (oracle from Vain Attempt on AO3, go read it please)

[umbrx]

Doflamingo is more than aware of the erotica written about him. He doesn't read it, neither does he care for it. It's only NORMAL (humanly) to desire a GOD. However, there is an audiobook or two of him narrating the story. The books were written by Monet and approved by him.

[justanaspiringsomeone]

I’m bored…

So a question for my Touchstarved MCs~

How do your touchstarved MCs view the light? Like… how would they respond to this question?

what does the light mean to you?

Monet

The light for her means… safety. Warmth. Being seen, not harshly exposed, but just… gently seen and still worth being cared for warmly. She knows most people hide, shun or even have disdain for it because it’s typically the opposite, especially as a thief. But Monet can’t help but find comfort in it, knowing the light gives a certain warmth and serenity to a person…

Keiki

The light for Keiki means rebirth. Not necessarily a new life in a physical sense but to a way of living. Something new. And hopefully, something brighter.

Rosamie

For Rosamie, the light means danger. Always did. Be it the sun, the artificial spotlight or holding the gaze of people watching her every move. There's also a heat to it that she can't explain, as if she's being burned when focused on but... that's something she could never explain the feeling of.

Victorious next gen: Erwin Sikowitz vers.

Erin Coco Sikowitz

Faceclaim: Emilia Clarke

Erin is the one and only daughter of the great teacher of Hollywood arts drama teacher Erwin Sikowitz

Like her father, she is also a theater arts and drama teacher at Hollywood Arts

Like her father, she has a unique way of teaching

Unlike her father, she is not that obsessed with coconuts despite her middle name being short for coconuts

Erin has had the pleasure of meeting her father's students, but she never attended Hollywood arts due to her living with her mom in San Francisco

Erin has a medical degree with a minor degree in theater arts

Erin was originally a doctor, but she had quite her job and became a theater teacher at Hollywood Arts

She also lives with her dad and helps take care of him and makes sure he doesn't completely lose his mind

She loves teaching and is always prepared to help the students both theatrically and medically

She also helps out at the nurse's office

Also, she has a hippie preppy style going on with her

+ Trina Vega vers.

Tanya Garnet Vega

Faceclaim: Lulu Antariksa

Tanya is the oldest daughter of Trina Vega

Tanya had a younger brother named Griffin

Tanya's dad is a rich ceo who owns an auto dealer in Hollywood

Despite marrying rich, Trina started her own business in teaching self-defense classes for both men and women. She is also a choreographer for fight scenes in movies, which surprisingly is going extremely well for her

Tanya was also taught self-defense and martial arts by her mom and now knows how to handle herself when she's mugged or dealing with a creeper

Tanya loves her aunt Tori, her uncle Andre, and her cousins and spends a lot of time at their place rather than at her own home

Whenever Tanya's home, it's mostly quiet since both her parents are busy except when she takes care of Griffin, but when her mom comes home, it's pure chaos

Like her mother, Tanya can't sing to save her life

But she does know fashion and has her own blog where she posts her clothes, including giving fashion advice for any situation

Similar to her cousin Melody, Tanya knows how to draw and has her own sketch book where she draws ideas for clothing

Is a master with a needle and thread

Is a stitching genius

Tanya will say she has most of Trina's self-confidence, but in reality, she is extremely insecure and doesn't think her designs are good enough, but the good reviews on her website and the support of her family help her confidence

Unlike her mother, Tanya can actually dance since Jasper taught her a few moves, but she doesn't come close to his level

She designs costumes for the plays hosted at Hollywood Arts

She can't act, but she can lie through her teeth

Since she is the daughter of a businessman, Tanya knows how to talk business

Tanya's brother Griffin is more like both their parents and has an ego the size of Hollywood or possibly the earth despite his young age

Tanya is also a tech and math genius

[heavens-sin]

dont know if these would be considered headcanons but Kinda been having my bird man on the mind (the usual). Like imagine the kind of life must someone who was born as a certified ruler of the world have gone through to make him want to become a pirate with his own “family.”

 yes. he’s incredibly cruel, ruthless, and delights in the suffering of others, yet he cares deeply for his crew, and seems to genuinely love them.  yes he kept selling slaves through the Human Auction house on Sabaody. But even if Doflamingo has sold slaves, helped and funded Caesar abduct, experiment on, and murder children, made and sold arms, profited off war, overthrew a happy kingdom and replaced it with a rule of masked oppression, and more…. he still seems to really love his motley, stupid, ragtag family. The love he has for them is some people tend to over look. Doflamingo whos more than just a constantly smiling, flamingo of evil. He is nihilistic and subscribes to a very detached, realistic view of the world that disavows the importance of dreams and encourages the idea of the relativity of everything, including the idea that Justice means nothing beyond what those in control define it as. But again, despite all this, he cares for his crew, and they care about him. They don’t follow him on threat of death, they don’t fear failure because he’ll kill them if they disappoint him— they fear failure because they want to help him. Even when facing death they can smile from the bottom of their hearts just because he thanked them. He is undeniably and unrepentantly twisted and cruel, and his actions are thoroughly unjustifiable and inexcusable, yet that’s not all there is to him. Doflamingo isn’t just defined by his evil, he’s defined by his love as well.

and i will repeat myself. that's why when betrayal within the family its something seen unforgivable. and with his sick sense of justice don't expect mercy.

[tokiro07]

@giltheweebzard replied to your post “Starting the year off right: thinking about...”:

Don't forget Monet incapacitated Robin before she could use her abilities against her. And while Nami could use heat effectively, she and Chopper got bailed out by Zoro who drew attention from Monet.

Monet is definitely one of the most pragmatic characters in the series, which is in turn aided by the fact that she's well aware of where she stands relative to everyone else

She was able to "beat" Luffy because he wasn't getting serious against her; if he'd actually made a real effort to overpower her, he definitely could have, and she acknowledged that, so she made sure to go for a capture rather than for a win while he was still underestimating her

The circumstances of the fight play just as much of a role as the fighters, but let's take a look at how the match-ups might go if everyone were just plopped into battle without any context

Luffy: his Haki and overall strength easily overpower Monet if he's actually making an effort, as we've established

Zoro: same as above, and seen in canon

Nami: her Heat Eggs definitively give her an advantage, and the heat from her lightning attacks should work on Monet as well, but given Monet's speed, she should be capable of maneuvering around Nami's attacks once she knows to be cautious of them. Nami's weather manipulation could likely prevent Monet from conjuring a snowstorm and gaining a field advantage, but that might also just lead to a stalemate. If Nami lands a lightning attack, she wins, but she'd have to really strategize around Monet's abilities. I'm gonna call this one approximately even, but I'll give the advantage to Nami on the basis that weather is her entire thing

Usopp: I don't know how well his Pop Greens would work in a cold environment since they're from a tropical one, so there's a good chance that Monet could make her surroundings too inhospitable for them to be used properly. Usopp has used flame-based attacks before, so he definitely has a way to harm Monet even without Haki, but again, it's a matter of actually hitting her since she's very good at outmaneuvering her enemies. If he ever learns to actually utilize his Observation Haki, he'd probably be able to find where she hides in the snow, but if she's being cautious of long-ranged attacks, she'd probably be able to catch him before he can use his arsenal effectively. Usopp has a way to win, but advantage to Monet

Sanji: in terms of strength, Sanji wins - fire powers, Haki, iron skin, no contest. Buuut it's Sanji. He can't hit her, he won't hit her, he'll let himself die. Best bet is to tag in someone else

Chopper: no Haki, no heat-based abilities; he might be able to concoct a medicine of some kind that would allow him to produce heat, like a reverse version of Queen's Ice Oni, but Chopper's never been shown using medicine offensively aside from the Rumble Ball, so I'm not inclined to believe that he would. Even in Monster Point, Chopper doesn't have a way to hurt Monet and would really only be giving her more surface area to hit, though it might make him durable enough to resist most of her attacks. Monet has the advantage, though it would most likely come down to a battle of attrition more than anything else

Robin: Monet being a Logia-user gives her a distinct advantage, as Robin's grappling techniques are rendered completely moot; Robin's best hope against Monet is to use Fishman Karate, which can damage Devil Fruit-users the same way that Haki does, but Robin has thus far only used Fishman Karate strikes as a set-up for her grappling, so we don't have much reason to believe that she has anything in her arsenal that would allow her to land a definitive blow. If she has more techniques up her sleeve, sure, but as it stands, Monet most likely wins

Franky: Multiple methods of taking advantage of Monet's weakness to heat (fire-breath, laser beams, etc.) and a near-invincible body give Franky the distinct advantage, though Monet's cunning and strategy could eke her out the win. Still, I'm giving this one to Franky since I don't know if Monet's offenses have a way to get around Franky's iron constitution. Edit: Reevaluated this, I forgot that Franky's back is still his weakness post-timeskip. Monet would definitely figure this out since she favors attacking from behind. Franky is also canonically the second-slowest Straw Hat and almost exclusively wins his fights through brute force instead of strategy, so Monet would definitely land her hits with little difficulty. In the worst-case scenario, Monet would likely figure out that she can freeze Franky's cola to render his weapons useless. Monet takes the advantage

Brook: Brook's ice attacks shouldn't have much effect on Monet given that she's already frozen, though it's been stated that Aokiji's ice Logia would overpower her snow Logia the same way that Akainu's lava overpowered Ace's fire, so it's certainly possible that Brook could freeze Monet's snow into solid ice to force her into having a corporeal body, but that depends on how adept he is at using cold, I think. Brook's speed also gives him a good counter to Monet's, but a lack of Haki makes his offensive options a lot more limited. He uses his hypnosis abilities so rarely that it's hard to say whether they would affect Monet, but I'm inclined to believe they wouldn't since he only really uses them on fodder enemies. If ice overpowers snow he has a way to harm her, but being able to harm her isn't the same as being able to beat her. I'm going to give this one to Monet, but cautiously. Edit: after much thought, I've decided that Brook's ice should be able to harm Monet, and his speed should be more than enough to keep up with her, even if only via reaction time. Brook has shown resistance to being frozen (as he has no flesh or blood), and his lack of organs makes him resistant to stabbing attacks. Only Monet's bites pose a real threat, and they're her slowest attacks (Nami could move Chopper out of the way while otherwise immobilized by Monet's cold, which wouldn't affect Brook). This one goes to Brook, but Monet's strategies still give her a decent chance

Jinbe: no contest, Jinbe's on at least Doflamingo's level and is both skilled in Haki and the foremost Fishman Karate master. He's so serious that I don't even see a way that Monet could get the drop on him in any situation, either, but perhaps her binding-based abilities would let her hold her own for a while

So that's three definitive losses (Luffy, Zoro, Jinbe), three solid wins (Usopp, Chopper, Robin), two shaky losses (Nami and Brook), one shaky win (Franky), and one default (Sanji)

Huh, that came out a lot more balanced than I was expecting to be, actually. Basically three each of losses, wins and possible draws. Honestly, though, if Oda put any of the Straw Hats against Monet, he'd probably find a way for them to win, since generally the crew doesn't lose their arc fights, but that should only strengthen the argument that Monet isn't too weak to join. They're all dolls that Oda plays with as he sees fit, he can just write a way to win any given fight. He's skilled enough to do so with logical consistency between battles, but still, if Monet joined, he'd make sure that she's a competent enough fighter to beat whatever opponents he'd have her up against and would make her just as viable a combatant as anyone else on the crew

In short, "too weak to join" is just an excuse that people use to derail the argument

[ikkaku-of-heart]

Anonymous asked: random ship question! we know what your gal likes in men but what does she like in the ladies romantically and physically? (feel free to answer ic or ooc!)

Unprompted

Ikkaku paused and thought over the women she’d been with, or at least been interested in. It wasn’t quite as long as the men, but it didn’t have to be. Her sexuality wasn’t 50/50, after all. “Well, I guess my type when it comes to the ladies is pretty simple. Curvy, for starts. I like a gal who has a good body, and hey, they get to appreciate mine, so it’s a fair trade. Feminine. I want someone who can be unashamedly fem so I don’t feel so self-conscious about embracing my girly side. And I like bossy. I like a girl who can tell me what to do. Doesn’t even have to be in the bedroom. The rest...well, it depends on the lady. But those are the traits I tend to gravitate towards in women. Hopefully that’s an acceptable answer for you.”

[icyharpy]

Of all the honeypot missions Doflamingo sent Monet on there was one in particular that one would describe as seductively destructive.

Most of the time she’d be there to seduce and receive all the information she’d need before the family would crush the region but on this mission it was different. Monet had to stay for longer at the behest of Doffy and not one to question her young master she accepted it.

There was a middle-aged Baron that while he wasn’t the highest ranked. He was a key-piece preventing Doflamingo from illegally spreading his wares and influences in the seas beyond the north. And as it would turn out, Monet would be sent to utterly ruin him.

Ultimately, she’d make the man fall in love with her and her perfectly crafted disguise before ultimately betraying him and smearing his reputation into the dirt. At least by the end of it all, she was able to give him the mercy of death.

[imprvdente]

Thinking about District 4 and Fish Monet, so here are some Hunger Games AU headcanons:

The ocean is big, and the Capitol doesn’t want fishermen sailing away from beautiful Panem. Because of that, the space where fishing is allowed is heavily limited and guarded. Boats can’t sail away too far.

To enforce that, all peacekeepers sent to District 4 are taught nautical skills. On top of the surveillance on land, peacekeepers in 4 also guard the coast on boat. Their ships are heavily armored, and they are instructed to shoot on sight should a boat try to explore past the limits without authorization.

Still the limits are further enough from the coastline that lighthouses are required at night. The lighthouses are guarded by peacekeepers, though the duties inside the lighthouses are done by District 4 inhabitants. 

Most of what is fished in 4 is shipped to the Capitol. However, the fishermen are allowed to keep a small percentage of their catch, and sell it at the port, and use what little they have left to feed their family. 

If you fish more specialized things and delicacies prized in the Capitol (sharks, whales, oysters), you may be allowed to fish beyond the limits, granted you are accompanied by the coast guard. You also make a much better living. 

There is a sailor bar at the port, where fishermen and peacekeepers alike come at night.

[sirensofthefiveseas]

👥 (for Monet and Caesar!)

Monet had to build up an immunity to Caeser's gas to work with him safely and did so by lacing bits of his gas into her snow body until she could lace her entire body with gas and suffer no effects

🤡How do you deal with avoiding suspicion while living forever?

Questions for Immortals/Ancients

"There are quite a few things that can assist with such a thing." Annette found herself looking over, curious as to if the other was, perhaps, trying to hide too. "I primarily refuse to say my full name to most anyone I meet. Plenty of people live this way, compared to the past. I stay hidden from society most of the time, as being a constant present would cause suspicion. These are the two primary factors that I use, but it is a bit of a science, depending on the circumstances."

"Well, simply put, I don't have to do much. As all of the people on the archipelago know that I am immortal. That I'm not going to die anytime soon. Even when some leaders from the other islands have attempted to make an attempt on my life." Curios snickered slightly as he thought back on the small handful of attempts that a few desperate island leaders had made. They were thankfully as rare as he made them seem, and quite honestly foolish methods that had been used each time.
