#ni no kuni doloran

[incorrect-ninokuni]

[chapter 9]

Doloran: Do we really have to go through there?

Roland: Well it’s either that, or deal with the consequences of our actions.

Doloran: ...Blind leap into the void, it is.

What a silly comparison... I couldn't help but share--I'm sure Evan and Tani will get a kick out of this.

Do we look so much alike to warrant a meme? I'll have to see what Doloran thinks of this. Maybe he'll laugh too? Maybe he'll be offended... Nah, he'll probably just boast about how we're "indeed one and the same" or something along those lines.

Doloran the Arcane

Here's my take on Roland's soulmate, Doloran! Enjoy!

[sweetpea-sprite]

if anyone following familiarology is curious as to what's actually happening with the milk fountains, here's my theory on my non rp blog, because familiarology wouldn't know about this:

creation magic is something that is said to be possible, but VERY POWERFUL. like, REALLY POWERFUL. it's discussed briefly in horace's fairyground quest: drippy mentions that the fairy godmother says she made all the islands around teeheeti, and horace is shocked that she can do creation magic, and drippy goes what, you think she really did it? like it would be insane. the white witch was incredibly powerful and her imagined council crumbled the moment oliver popped her bubble. if you wanna take this to ni no kuni 2, doloran needed FOUR KINGSBONDS before he could form fake allegoria (said to be the same thing as the white witch's council).

the "ancient sages" in al mamoon are worshipped like a religion - people exclaim "by the ancients!" etc etc (i will never forgive level 5 for whitewashing esther not just in skin colour but in speech btw. she should also be doing this. but whatever). they were said to create the milk fountains. if they genuinely did this then YEAH. they were so powerful that it MAKES SENSE they're worshipped like this. so it does add up that the milk fountains are like that.

so. yeah. the milk fountains are literally just. magic milk forevies. and it's likely no one knows why.

day 13 - au! shiho is included, alongside the rest of leo/need, tsukasa and a few others

small fandom (this is all self-indulgent anyway) BUT. i've been thinking about a ni no kuni ii au:

Tsukasa as Roland, Saki as Evan. One of the main reasons for this is how each person from Roland's world is connected to one in Evan's. Though I don't think it's ever said, Roland's son is at least implied to be tied to Evan. Roland's son is also implied to have a chronic illness. Throughout the story, he protects and encourages Evan, watching him grow. Evan goes from a timid, frightened former King to the confident ruler of Evermore, a kingdom he founded with Roland, and the boy who united all 5 kingdoms.

Airi as Aranella. I didn't know who to put here, but because Saki looks up to Airi, I thought this would be sweet. Even if Nella does die at the start. It's fine.

Ichika as Tani. I almost picked Shiho because she's also a bit of a stick-in-the-mud with a secret love of cute things (which also matches anessa from dqb2 but anyway.), BUT I decided on Ichika instead. It's implied that she eventually marries Evan, for one thing, but I thought that overall, she just fits better with her extroverted, optimistic nature (fits Saki better, but she's already Evan).

Shiho as Batu. Rather than a parental figure to Ichika, she would be more of a mentor and experienced fighter, both to her and Saki. I have less to say here. In this AU, the way she found Ichika wouldn't be that different. However, rather than stealing from Ichika's dying mother, she'd probably just take her to protect her, though she'd probably be a child or teenager rather than a baby. Plus, she's lonely (and in need of an heir, but that's not important). I do think it would be sweet if she used to be cold, but softened with Ichika.

Honami as Martha. She gets to look after all those little Higgeldies. I just think that would be cute. As a bonus, Kanade and Mafuyu could either live with her, OR be Higgeldies. Either are really sweet.

Miku as Lofty. It's funny.

Rui as Leander, Shizuku as Nerea. Shizuku would be a Queen, Rui would be her chief adviser. They're also in love, which was the main reason. Besides that, Leander is (one of) the most knowledgeable in the party, though it's Bracken whose knowledge is based around machines, as she is from Broadleaf (and her best friend is its ruler).

Bracken as An. I know Nene (with Zip as Rui) or Haruka might've made more sense, but I cannot let this go now. However, it could also be Toya as Leander, Haruka as Nerea, Nene as Bracken and Rui as Zip. Anyway, Bracken as An. That's it.

Akito as himself because I just really wanted him in here, especially where Toya is Leander rather than Rui.

NOW the part I was struggling with: Alisandra and Doloran.

A King isn't supposed to fall in love with his Kingmaker. Doloran did what he never should have. Alisandra reciprocated his feelings and for a while, they were happy. Alisandra, though, was immortal. Doloran wasn't. As a sort of last resort, she attempted to split herself into two and succeeded. One half mortal, the other being the powerful half, which became a great evil, the Horned One. Though she worked with Doloran to defeat it, this was only temporary. She gave up her future with her lover to seal the Horned One away and guard it, though Doloran didn't know this. She was also the one to bring Roland into their world.

Doloran wanted his kingdom, Allegoria, back, as it had been destroyed (sort of). He brought the Horned One back and took souls from across the world so he could begin to rebuild. Basically, he wanted his kingdom and he wanted Alisandra. So, who to pick?

For this one, I went with Mizuki as Alisandra and Ena as Doloran. Mizuki breaking unspoken rules for the woman she loves, then giving everything up to protect her. Ena never knowing this, desperate to return all that she lost, only to lose it again because not only did she not know everything she needed to, but because she was too hurt to care about what she did. It might not necessarily fit their characters, but I think it fits them best (though KanaMafu, AkiToya or MinoHaru could've worked well too imo).

As I said with Akito, Kanade and Mafuyu, the other characters would probably just be themselves. Assuming they're residents of different kingdoms that they can pick up along the way (the side quest characters, that is), here are their kingdoms, including the characters who could be replaced by others:

Ding Dong Dell: Minori, Emu

Goldpaw: Kohane, Toya

Hydropolis: Haruka, An, Shizuku

Broadleaf: Nene, Rui
