[The Gods of Hetaveyond] 10 Facts About Aluros 🐱

A.K.A. God of Colors, The Origin (of Life), The First Shapeshifter, etc.

(Previous: Photia | Next: TBA)

For Earth Day, we introduce the most down-to-earth god in Hetaveyond— Aluros! (pronounced “AY-loo-rose”)

1. Aluros is the only masculine-presenting member of the Three Primordial Gods.

2. Those who receive Aluros’ blessing develop markings on their bodies, which carry over to their other forms. No two shapeshifters possess the same marks.

3. In his main form, Aluros’ hair, eyes, and animal features change color depending on his mood.

4. Aluros’ iconic necklace contains an extremely rare, color-changing gemstone. Only Lucas Reynard, his champion, is known to possess another piece.

5. Despite their differing ideologies, especially regarding mortals, Aluros is close friends with Diadema and her children, as they have been for thousands of years.

6. Aluros’ emotions are known to affect the skies; when he is really happy, the sky turns into a beautiful shade of purple. 💜

7. Aluros and his four familiars, the Princesses of Color, founded five nations in the continent of Kromatista in the early 1600s. Their reign there was short-lived, however, as the mortals grew to believe their nations can operate without their founders.

8. Many believe that Aluros vanished around 300 years ago, as he had not been worshipped since. However, recent studies have pointed out that certain figures in history never really existed— they were only disguises worn by the God of Colors!

9. Unearthed remains of Aluros’ first tribe, Zucoria, reveals a mural of what modern scholars believe to be the true form of the God of Colors— a giant red cat.

10. Aluros is based on the amazing @tolyys! That’s why he’s such a ball of sunshine 💕

Some Advice For People Leaving Comments on Fanfics:

“I liked your fic”

Nice, but basic and easy to overlook

Doesn’t compel the author to do anything other than take the compliment

Sounds like you might be a bot (ew)

“I am going to eat your floorboards!”

Unique and attention grabbing

Makes me second guess whether I should have bought that insurance

Sounds like you might be a termite (how did a termite learn to type????)

do you guys ever think about how the definition if perihelion is "The point in a solar orbit where the orbiting body is closest to the sun."

like sure they named the research vessel after scientific initiative but they also named the sentient mom-bot after a cosmological metaphor for intimacy

The Gods of Hetaveyond: 10 Facts About Photia 🐦

A.K.A. The Sun Goddess, The Founder (of Civilization), Lady of Light, etc.

After the introduction of Diadema, here is her mentor and fellow goddess, Photia— because how can you have a moon deity without another that presides over the sun?

1. Photia is the leader of the pantheon, though not the oldest or most worshipped god.

2. Photia is allowed two magical gifts due to her status, of which she has chosen to grant sword singing and sorcery to promising mortals.

3. Photia’s way of distributing her gifts inadvertently birthed a classist society within her continent of Illiosa; while the gifted ones flourish, the non-gifted struggle to make a name for themselves.

4. Photia only allows herself to be seen if her presence is truly necessary, as she thinks it dangerous to have mortals gaze upon her too often.

5. Photia has granted the leaders of Illiosa special authority, allowing them to summon their goddess directly. However, only the monarchs of Tōnichi have been known to exercise such power.

6. Photia had a Twin named Tefna, who spawned vampiric entities where the Founder’s light does not shine.

7. Photia requested the creation of the Moon, as Tefna’s influence could only be suppressed by light. The “Vampire Queen” had not been seen since Diadema released her magnum opus — a massive, multifaceted lantern — into the night sky.

8. The only thing rarer than Photia’s own presence is her gigantic, fiery wings. Said to radiate heat comparable to that of the sun’s rays itself, evidence of such wings now remain only in ancient murals and statues composed in her likeness.

9. Besides Illiosans, Photia is also worshipped by the elves of Phantasmia, some of whom even desire to become sword singers.

10. Photia is based on the pioneer of Aveyond x Hetalia, @levijonescc! 🩵🤍

To anyone who might need this - we’re with you.

— Team Mythic Beasts

I’m at a total loss of words. We went into this month, this season, with so much hope. But it seems like we had way too much faith on this world.

Now, I’m just… horrified at what could happen to so many people I know, appreciate, and love in the next four years.

The LGBTQ+ community.

Women all across the world.

The resilient peoples of Europe, Ukraine, and Palestine.

My dearest homeland, beautiful Taiwan, and everyone I know here.

A friend in Pennsylvania I haven’t heard from in a really long time.

And many, many more that I wept for, every time they crossed my mind today.

I know I’m not alone. There were countless signs all over the Internet, most in our favor. And yet… sigh.

I hate the blame game - that’s not what I’m here for. Today I just want to console my fellow fighters as much as I possibly can. Even if I’m struggling to be positive myself. As my mom told me a few days ago: “The show must go on.”

It’s normal to feel that all our efforts were in vain. It’s normal to feel afraid. But as much as history has taught us about the seemingly unstoppable and repeated rise of evil and hatred, we fought hard against them. And the good guys eventually come out on top. Every. Single. Time.

So don’t give in, my friends. We’ll get through this - ALL of us.

Our very existence is the greatest middle finger we can give to the terrors that await this world. Have a great day/night, and rise back up whenever you are ready.

Trenton Lee Stewart was like: Neurodivegence is a superpower. Fuck capitalism. Killing people is wrong when there are alternatives. Immigrants are heroes. Women are awesome. Black people are freaking gorgeous. People are good at heart.

And then turned that into a book series. And succeeded.
