[paragonrobits]

I was messing around with a Gemsona generator and i got some ideas for a new group of OCs

bare in mind that the original picture i got off the generator is a starting point; owing to its limitations, the monstery/more inhuman traits i like can’t be represented, and I will probably change these designs as I mess around with their concepts more.

here is the original pic i am using as a starting point:

basic concept: they are aberrant, mutant Gems (and one sidekick who has the One Braincell) created by Autobot researchers attempting to find a workaround the destructive method Gems reproduce. Ultimately the project didn’t have results they wanted, but these gals were born from it. They have since become a group of intersteallar superheroes who go around as a band of muisciians playing rock music, doing beloved concerts on thousands of worlds and fighting villains and solving mysteries off the clock. imagine a combination of scooby-doo and Teen Titans, but doing music for a living, and you got the idea

as a result of them not being normal Gems, they exist outside the usual Gem caste boundaires and do not have the functions or purpose of regular Gems. Thus, they look very diferent from other Gems of their type, and have entirely different abilities. Energon was a vital component in their creation, and its mutagenic effects have created unusual effects.

From left to right:

Volcanic Obsidian: the main character, in a sense, and the Big Mom of the group. The gem trio are all Mom Tier personalities and superheroines, but she is the most powerful and the most obvious example. She is absolutely massive, having absorbed enormous amounts of materials to grow itno a far larger gem than expected. Is NOT a fusion, she’s just unusually big. Is rather gloomy and introspective, and takes all the burdens on her own shoulders. (in proper art, would be super thicc.) Probably has mild monstery traits. When she gets fired up, she can create lava from her body and manipulate in various ways, and she cries lava as well, though it is only dangerous to things she wants to harm. Compassionate, sweet (though she’s usually too mellow to make it obvious), she’s a natural leader even though she thinks little of herself. Very affectionate to smaller beings!

Emerald: She knows she’s hot shit, and she’s damn sure YOU will know how damn awesome she is. Just look at that grin, she knows what’s up. A badass lady, showboat and born to totally own the stage, she has a very punkish ‘SCREW YOU, COME AT ME!!!�� sense of bravado. VERY intelligent and good at pretty much anything she does, she has a sense of purpose as the team’s technician. Tends to propose the schemes, and they’re usually kinda bonkers! Very supportive, in her own shouty way. (Her proper design should probably be pretty bottom heavy.) Can convert her magical energies into a liquid form she can shape into various constructs, at the cost of weakening herself overall.

Shpalerite: She is the smallest one but she is still VERY wide for her size, not so much overcooked as heavily compressed, and she’s actually a heavier hitter than anyone but Volcanic Obsidian. She’s quite extroverted, in a strange mixture of ‘peppy’ and ‘boisterous bruiser’; she kicks ass, tosses cars around, and then flexes, blowing smooches at any bystanders. She’s cheerfully a meathead, and charges headlong with a confident smile. She has a LOT of self-image based around being a hero, and has opinions on proper heroic behavior. She can absorb magic into her body and make herself even stronger, with an armored form that resembles shaped crystal; however this form is very heavy and difficult to move, so she flows in an out of it for different attacks.

Squishy: Not actually a human; she was originally intended as a size comparison placeholder, but has become a permanent member. In her proper concept, she is a slime/ooze alien, able to shapeshift in a variety of wyas (though she cannot change her substance). Open-hearted and idolizing them, she is a recent member of the group and looks up to them all, and serves as a stabilizing influence. Despite her relative lack of power, she keeps them grounded and is the only one with real common sense. Her powres are based around raw biomass; the more she has, the stronger she is, but she burns through it whenever she transforms herself, typically by compressing her body to make armor or defense-breaking attacks. In her default state, her body is fluid but very firm, hence her nickname!

a rough height chart here, and perhaps subject to change:

Squishy: The baseline to compare them from. At a human height, at 5���7.

Sphalerite: 5′0. smoll but wide!

Emerald: 7 ft-ish.

Volcanic Obsidian: 13ft and up. she big.

Outside the walls, the adventures and unlikely relationships between towering beasts: a Attack on Titan fanfiction

I got the inspiration from @redcoaster ‘s fanfic. Rogue belongs to him/her. This fanfic will feature the Colossal Titan, Rogue Titan, Female Titan, Armoured Titan, Warhammer Titan, Jaw Brothers, my OC the Leviathan Titan and more once I think of more.

Bonus features will include: Sawney and Bean as two intelligent titans with an inseparable bond, a aberrant version of the female titan, the winged jaw titan and more

Chapter one

Outside the safety of Wall Maria was a land wild and untamed and crawling with bloodthirsty beasts known as titans, but not all of them had this monstrous trait, this is the story of a pair of One-of-a-kind titans, each having their own personalities perks and quirks.

In a grassy mountainous landscape overlooking the large and seemingly impenetrable walls lived a sixty metre giant, a loud rumbling came from a large cave overgrown with moss and thousand year old trees, out lumbered a massive skinless behemoth that slowly stumbled out of his living quarters, he stretched out his long arms that were pure muscle and let out a booming yawn, the surrounding wildlife was used to this giant’s presence. To the animals that lived there, he was their guardian. The giant made his way out into a clearing, his body steaming like hot coals, he was very cautious of his surroundings, he made sure not to step on any wildlife that was in his path. He looked down from his rocky throne onto the architectural marvel that was Wall Maria, Rose and Sina, three fifty metre walls designed to keep things like his kind out and the humans in, he had a fairly large knowledge of the humans, every morning he would watch as groups of people on four legged animals called horses went out on their daily missions, the scouts were used to his presence and learned that if they respected this giant behemoth then he would respect them. He sometimes would help keep the titans away from the humans he called friends, one of these scouts would always stop my to spend time with him, she went my the name Petra Ral, the two spent many years together, she was like a mother to him.

“Good morning, Goliath!” Petra said in a sweet voice, one that always comforted him when he was having his usual bad days. “It’s so nice to see you again, how have you been?” She said in her usual cheery attitude.

“GRrrEaaaattt” he responded, he know how to speak human tongue almost perfectly, he had a fairly large vocabulary both in speech and hand gestures. “That’s great! I have to go now, the corporal is waiting for me, I’ll be back soon, Goliath “ she said while waving as she rode off on her oak brown horse.

(POV swap)

Down in the deep forests outside the walls in a remote cove lives a fifteen metre boy named Rogue, he was muscular with long black messy hair and emerald green eyes with a lipless mouth that looked like a big grin. His temperament was like that of a puppy or a toddler. Once every week he would get a visit from his two friends that were more like children to him. A black haired girl named Mikasa who always had a blood red scarf around her neck and showed little emotion and a blonde haired boy named Armin Arlet who was a bit of a nerd and a easy target for the neighborhood bullies, the three would spend hours playing and hanging out with each other, Rogue liked the company that was always a treat as he always worried about his two friends when they were gone.

“Hello Rogue, it’s so nice to see you” Armin said, Rogue’s let out a rumbling purr, a sound he used to say hello, he laid down on his back in front of his two friends, he opened his mouth and started to speak,

“Eeeeerr” “sssscrrrraaaacccchhh” he said, his speech capabilities weren’t that great but they were improving, his vocal cords weren’t structured for speech so it would hurt to talk for a prolonged period of time, it was evident that he wanted his ears to be scratched, Armin agreed to his big friends request and gently scratched his large pointy ear which always satisfied the titan, he purred loudly like a happy cat.

(POV swap)

Up high in the trees of the thousand year forest sat a fourteen metre skinless girl with long blonde hair and crystal blue eyes, her body was skinny yet muscular and her lips were red as blood and her body covered in pink and red muscle that acted somewhat like armour, she spent most of her time climbing trees and taking in the spectacular views from the treetops. It was a new day and the enlightening sounds of birds chirping filled her ears, she climbed down from her usual resting spot which was a large tree adorned with random human objects she had come across and large sturdy platforms carefully built around the large tree trunk, strong enough to support the weight of a titan. She made her way through the dense forest until she came across a familiar cove surrounded by large rocks, it looked like a sanctuary, in her hand was a blossoming tree that she had carefully uprooted, she made her way up the rocks and hopped down making a large thud. Rogue was curled up in the soft grass with two humans by his side, he seemed to enjoy their presence. The two young humans slowly turned around with shocked looks on their faces.

“I Won’t hurt you” the large feminine titan said in a sweet and calm tone, the towering female titan slowly knelt down by the crystal clear water and dug a hole with her sharp nails and gently placed the large tree into the hole before filling the hole with dirt.

“Rogue, I didn’t know you had a friend, does she have a name?” Armin asked the fifteen metre titan who was still laying on the ground, he sat up and his jugulars shifted as he opened his jaw, “Annie…”, Armin was as shocked as he was when he first met Rogue, Annie knelt down to look less threatening and put her hand down in front of Armin and Mikasa, her skinless fingers started to crystallize, “come on, get on” she said. Armin and Mikasa carefully climbed onto the titan’s hand and she slowly raised it in front of her face to greet the two kids, her dull blue eyes were relaxed and her silky blonde hair draped over parts of her muscular face, she gave them a slight smile. “What’s your name? I can see why you’re nervous, us titans are often criticized for being terrible man-eating beasts, that’s not true for titans like me and your friend. I’ve heard that there’s titans that guard parts of the walls, there’s one that’s fairly popular that protects the innermost wall, I heard she can create structures and weapons from hardened titan skin at will. I have a similar ability, I can harden parts of my body with crystals. I’m sorry if I talk too much, i hardly ever get to talk to humans, the only times I get to communicate with humans is when this one particular group stops by so they can study me, I don’t mind their presence but they’re an odd bunch. a tall hairy man that can tell when titans are approaching just by smelling the air, a girl with long messy hair and nerdy glasses that’s very passionate about titans, maybe way too passionate for her safety because she’s always accompanied by this very nervous man who always tries to calm her down, the leader was a short man who always has a gloomy expression, he doesn’t seem very likeable based on his temper “

“well, I don’t find you annoying. I’ve never thought I would meet a titan that was fully capable of human speech. It’s a pleasure to meet you Annie, my name is Armin Arlert and this is my friend Mikasa Ackerman, we both come from Shiganshina, we’ve been with Rogue for a few years now, he’s like a big brother to us. After our parents got killed we came to live with him” the blond haired boy said in a enthusiastic tone.

“Oh, what a shame… I’m so sorry to hear that. I’ve heard rumours about Rogue adopting two children but I didn’t think they were true even though Rogue would definitely do something like that, I’m glad that I got to meet you in person, I only met him a month ago”.

(POV swap)

Outside the walls at the base of the large grassy mountains sits a abandoned town that was falling apart, in the centre of the town was a large fort made from large tree logs and rubble with various parts of the buildings decorating the seemingly manmade fort, surrounding the fort was a small wall made from rocks and rubble and was decorated with crystals and creeping vines with flowers as blue as the sky. In the fort sat a fifteen metre muscular titan with glowing yellow eyes and short fluffy hair, he was in a trancelike state listening to the birds chirping and the rustling of the large plants that had started to retake the town which made it look like a lush paradise. The titan got up and slowly made his way out of his home, he gently stepped over the wall and made his way towards the towering walls. He was nervous and clutching a small blanket in his large hand, a group of scouts made their way out of the wall gate on horses, he set off toward the scouts and ran alongside them at a steady pace with the rhythmic thumping of his feet. He looked at the scouts and gave them a little smile from his armoured jaw and let out a welcoming roar. The group stopped at a small creek to set up base and get some rest before setting off again, the large titan sat down near the weathered lookout tower that had dark mossy wood, there were some scouts that he didn’t recognize, these were new recruits on their first scouting mission. The more seasoned scouts were used to the titan’s presence but the newer ones were scared to be around him.

“What’s a titan doing here…?”

“Why isn’t it attacking us?”

“Why aren’t we killing it?” Some of the new recruits asked nervously. “To those who are new here, don’t be alarmed by the titan that’s sitting across from the base. He’s known to us as Ragnarok and he has no interest in hurting us. In fact, he’s known to follow scouts and kill any titans that approach them” a tall man that Ragnarok knew very well, his name was Erwin Smith and he was the one who led the scouts on a pure white horse that always mystified Ragnarok.

I love my gals

[astraldoesart]

I love different variations of the Aberrant your honor

[astraldoesart]

"Zakai Eriko. Best suited for the Aberrant due to her speed, quick thinking, and theatrics. A titan best suited for fear tactics. Her titan affects nearby titans as well, she definitely belongs on the frontlines." -Magath about Zakai and the Aberrant Titan.

The Aberrant Titan is already scary enough, with the skull that it has, but Zakai has always been really good at being terrifying on purpose. Since her titan can speak, she uses that to her benefit as well. Often sticking with lines she read in books about death when she was a child. Nowadays, Zakai just threatens others. This particular drawing is from a moment where she was alongside her fellow Warriors, winning a war for Marley.

[astraldoesart]

Story + explanation/rambling under the cut :]

---

"Why don't you visit us anymore?"

Zakai looked up to the voice, eyes settling on the new candidate. He was her brother yet the boy felt like so much more at times. Like her very own son. His pale green eyes inquisitive, hurt swirling in them. Zakai sighed, taking in the way he avoided her gaze and stared at his feet. Soren's hair fashioned just to copy his eldest sister, no doubt a messy to brush considering he didn't have the same father as she did and so his hair style wasn't nearly as "natural".

"Its-" Zakai began.

Soren huffed, annoyed and frustrated, "Complicated. I know! Thats what Val says too."

Zakai couldn't help but think about her stepfather's first born, of what happened when she properly became a Warrior yet before the war she was sent off to fight for Marley. Her eyes showed indifference melting away into bitter resentment back then. Yet even now, everytime she saw her family all she saw was painful indifference. So, she didn't go home and she definitely didn't see Valentina. Hell, when she was asked why, normally by her fellow Warriors, she gave an excuse. Zakai may have claimed responsibility for the drift between the once close sisters but, in reality, Zakai knew as much as the next that it was Valentina's words and actions that couldn't be taken back.

"She's right. It's just... Complicated." Zakai muttered.

It wasn't. Zakai believed that nothing was simpler. If she were a lesser person, Valentina would know that. Valentina would know exactly how it felt. Sometimes, Zakai wanted to tell Valentina in painful detail how it felt, wanted to see how her freckled face contorted into guilt and shame. Yet, Zakai wouldn't.

"... We all miss you." Soren whispered.

Zakai focused on the youngest, the baby of the family really, on his face. How the sadness pulled on his face and shined in his eyes. Zakai frowned, stepping towards him and yanking his arm. She was hugging him, arms wrapped around the taller boy. Soren returned the gesture in kind, brows knitted together with that heartbreaking desperation.

"... Did I do something wrong to make you leave?"

Zakai fekt her heart shatter, pulling away and staring at him. Soren wore his heart on his sleeve and witnessing it hurt. Zakai nearkh broke down just at that question, shock evideng in her eyes.

"No!" She immediately answered before pausing, glancing away, "... No, not at all, Soren. Relationships of every variety are hard and... Sometimes being a Warrior, even just a candidate, got in the way. So, really, its my fault."

Zakai looked to the black haired boy who only nodded before shifting his gaze to the other candidates. He awkwardly smiled, whispering a soft, "My friends are waiting. Gabi wanted to see which one of us were faster."

Zakai only nodded, watching Soren jog towards the group of future Warriors. Zakai let her composure crumble, her features showing just how exhausted the woman was. There were few things she knew after consoling Soren best she could and one was a certainty in her mind.

Valentina and her had to settle their shit.

---

Alright! Lil story time over. Which goes over Zakai and Soren's relationship alongside implying a few things about the relationship between Zakai and Valentina. To be clear: they are complex.

Zakai and Valentina have a year and a half between one another. A fact that Zakai used to rub in Valentina's face jokingly. Zakai and Valentina, before Lucien lived with the Eriko-Reitz family, were extremely close. They both shouldered the burden of their family's fiancial situation, often watching over their siblings(Soren and the twins). They still found time to occasionally have fun by themselves. Hell, they insisted on sharing a room. However, they drifted slightly when Lucien began living with them. Lucien and Zakai got close but Valentina didn't trust him. By the time Zakai becomes a Warrior, an idea Lucien left behind when he left to live with the Tyburs, Valentina is bitter and still just a kid. She views Zakai's training and becoming a Warrior as her abandoning the family, pushing everything on her. Valentina becomes cold, indifferent to Zakai. Zakai thinks thats just normal, that cold and indifferent is who Valentina is at her core. Zakai didn't really have the time question Valentina's behavior either way but she knew that seeing how harsh Valentina was hurt. Zakai, after inheriting her titan, was upset. Her mother's words were stuck in her mind and Zakai couldn't help but question Marley despite the undying loyalty she felt for them. Valentina calling her the family outcast, striking Zakai's insecurities about looking so different from even their mother, hit her hard. Zakai goes off to war, coming back briefly before running away to Paradis for unrelated reasons to Valentina. Yet, given the time to obsess over that on Paradis where little mattered and all she had was time on her hands, Zakai decided that Valentina could never take back any of her words or actions. See? Complex and complicated! I love my gals so so much but damn if they don't need to just communicate gdjsnsjs

The composition of this piece is actually something I worked on pretty well. I absolutely adore symbolism and this piece certainly has it. For example, Valentina's outfit doesn't change much because while she does change it also highlights that she still holds the same beliefs she had as a kid. Zakai's, however, changes completely because she did too. War and Paradis changed her. The Aberrant Titan in the middle is meant to highlight what was the final straw for Valentina's and Zakai's relationship to become what it is now. Valentina's armband isn't shown because whereas Zakai devotes herself, Valentina seems to simply go along with what Marley says all to survive

But do let me know what symbolism y'all thought of for some of the colors, designs, etc in the piece!
