Frankenstein

if your muse had to choose, what three traits describe them the most? who taught them these traits, and who do they think had the most influence in making them who they are? 

Independent: She learned to be independent from a young age, especially when things got rocky during her parents' relationship and right after their divorce. She and her brother tended to make their own routines, meals, got themselves to school, and as she got older, she took care of a lot of housework for her dad too. Quiet: She was decently outgoing as a child but got quieter as she got older with the combination of family issues in her youth and the treatment she got from one of her high school boyfriends. Open-minded: Despite being introverted she's interacted with so many people in her life and would say she's pretty accepting. Her friends were the type to talk with practically anyone and they talked her into doing so many fun things, so she definitely learned that from them.

Who had the most influence? Her friend group in high school, who she’s still close with today, played a big part in who she is. They supported her love for music and helped her a lot with her self-confidence. Her now ex-boyfriend Ford, who she dated for a little over a year, had really dwindled her self-esteem and optimism, but they really helped her grow after breaking up with him. They also helped her through all the stuff she had to deal with when it came to her dad.

let’s talk about jace’s family—the valencias! also known as the does and the kerrigans. (this post will be neglecting the paternal part of the tree, since that’s mercury & tbh i don’t wanna talk about godly relations).

first up—they’re blended & multi-racial! they’ve got irish, latine, italian, black, & korean. their family portraits look like seven random people if one doesn’t look close. school pickups were a nightmare.

second up—they’re from roswell. conspiracy theory central. none of them are truthers, but i feel that it’s important to note that they are from new mexico. the first time any of them experienced a real winter was a sight to behold.

let’s start with the matriarchs, catalina doe & alessandra valencia. catalina is a black woman who, despite what her surname may suggest, was not abandoned. her family just has an unfortunate name. alessandra is latina & italian. the two were married in massachusetts in 2004, a year after the state affirmed gay marriage. they had been together for two years at that point, but were plenty sure the other was the one.

bennett kerrigan is alessandra’s ex-boyfriend. the two were never married, but were together all throughout high school and college. he is the father of her two bio children. the two broke up amicably after realizing that they weren’t the people they were when they fell in love. bennett helped raise the girls, not one to abandon family. however, upon alessandra & catalina’s marrige, he revoked his own parental rights, giving them to catalina. this doesn’t mean he isn’t around! he has father-daughter days and is always available (even to jace & eun, who aren’t even related to him). he only gave up legal parental rights, not moral ones.

the eldest & younger middle children are alessandra’s from her previous relationship with bennett. the elder is mia kerrigan. she is twenty-eight and works as a family attorney. mia feels that she brings an understanding to clients, especially clients with kids, from her background.

the older middle is jace himself! he is the son of catalina & the god mercury from their short relationship. while he did have catalina’s last name for a while, when alessandra offered adoption so custody would be secure should something happen, he asked to take her name as his own. catalina loved that her son adored his second mother enough to do it and alessandra was honored. no hard feelings about the name change exist between mother and son.

the younger middle is alessandra’s second daughter, maeve kerrigan. maeve is twenty-four. she works as a reporter, doing both op-eds and research pieces. her career started before high school even ended, as she worked for her school newspaper. the local paper saw the articles she wrote and offered a job directly after graduation.

the youngest child is eun doe. unlike the other three, eun isn’t biologically related to either wife. he was adopted from the system at twelve, changing his last name. he took catalina’s to contrast against jace having alessandra’s & the girls having their father’s. currently twenty-one, eun is a community college student.

now let’s talk extended family. there’s really only one worth mentioning—rachele valencia. also known as “nonna.” alessandra’s mother, a widow who moved from her native santa fe to roswell to be closer to her daughter, her only living relative. rachele is in her golden years and knows she doesn’t have much longer left, so she spends her days trying to pass her culture to her grandchildren. she enjoys the blending of it with their own, especially when it comes to food.

click the read more to learn about khya & theo’s siblings!

porter kids birth order: troye, austen & cora (twins), theo, khya

full name: troye lucas porter

thirty years old.

max irons fc.

he was an only child for five years & those five years made him a brat.

as a kid, he was so used to getting what he wanted, when he wanted it, that when the twins came along and stole all the attention, he stared acting out.

spent a lot of time in time out.

he did grow out of tantrums (to the delight of jane & tarzan), but he’s still a brat to this day.

a disaster gay.

troye was a soccer player. he played it all throughout high school & even got a scholarship for it.

graduate of auradon university (where his scholarship went). his major was in middle school education.

troye is now an arithmetic teacher for the local jungle district middle school.

his students love him.

he will still come to auradon central for anything his siblings need. he’ll rearrange his whole schedule for a basketball game or an emt brunch or any other event his siblings want him to attend.

you’ve heard of super proud parents. now get ready for: emotional support older brother.

that’s right! troye is the emotional support of his siblings--even more so than their parents. this is especially true for the younger two as they looked up to their much older siblings like they had hung the world.

full name: austen brendon porter

twenty-five years old.

nico greetham fc.

twin to cora.

older by thirty-six minutes.

unlike many other older twins, austen doesn’t care. he won’t bring it up. if it were up to him, no one would ever know who the older twin was. it would be an eternal mystery.

a fireman / emt for the auradon fire department.

he joined the fire department as an emt straight out of high school. he became a firefighter at twenty-three.

most of the time, he’s out in the field for emt stuff as auradon doesn’t have many fires that require a call to emergency services. instead, people more often need medical attention & an ambulance.

a functional bisexual.

a lacrosse player. he liked the nets on sticks.

much like troye, austen will drop anything for his siblings and come rushing.

the exception is troye since he’s older & the jungle district is too far away to really “drop everything & get over here.”

full name: cora dailia porter

twenty-five years old.

maia mitchell fc.

twin to austen.

younger by thirty-six minutes.

if you were to ask cora & austen who the older twin was, cora would admit to being the younger one. she enjoys taking away austen’s “aura of mystery.”

the only cis-het of the porter children.

a ballet dancer. not a ballerina as she is in the chorus & not the lead role.

she’s currently in-between jobs as she has never really known what she wants to do with her life.

she’s been everything from an artist to an attempted doctor (only got through the first year of med school before decided “yeah... no.”).

cora’s been looking at just following austen & getting a job as a 9-1-1 operator since then she’d at least have one sorta co-worker that she knew.

the only of the five to still live at home. she’s already told austen that if she does become a 9-1-1 operator, she’s kicking out his current roommate.

troye & austen each have their own place. theo & khya are in the auradon prep dorms.

jane & tarzan love having one of their kids still around.

another npc! meet acid’s sister: noxious “nox” gwendolyn green.

i’ve mentioned nox once before (acid has a tattoo of her name), but i didn’t explain her. so... here’s that.

twenty-six years old (four years older than acid).

mali koa hood fc.

much like acid is named after their father, noxious is named after their parents. she is named noxious (after sour bill) gwendolyn (after wanda green).

she’s also a singer-songwriter (like her brother), though she is a solo act, not part of a band. her genre of choice is pop.

wears a lot of pinks & purples to contrast with her name. it has become part of her brand at this point (like how tris’s brand is to always have hair chalk).

she grew up on the internet, her code flitting between websites, but her first home was sugar rush.

it is this “first home was sugar rush” that causes a lot of problems between the siblings. acid has only been to sugar rush a couple of times & has rarely been to auradon, while nox left for college as soon as she was able to & therefore has spent so much time in auradon.

acid feels like he was abandoned because of this, but nox has no idea. the two don’t talk about the subject for fear of causing more fights & drifting apart.

she loves animals! if she weren’t always on tour, then she would adopt so many little critters. every time she & acid hang out she demands he bring cane. she just wants to cuddle the tiny cat into oblivion.

learn more about forest’s sisters & their familial relationship under the cut!

full name: princess fallyn fayth fitzherbert

born eleven years after forest, making her nineteen years old.

diana silvers fc.

fallyn only received the slow aging part of the magic flower--unlike her siblings who both got slow aging & healing powers. this doesn’t bother her as she sees her scars as signs that she lived.

the actor of the family. put her on a stage & she will flourish like she was born to be there. sometimes it feels like she was.

despite being in her element on stage, fallyn is an awful public speaker. her anxiety gets to her when she doesn’t have a script that tells her exactly what to say.

a goth.

has dyscalculia. fallyn was diagnosed at fifteen after having struggled with abstract concepts in math for years. this is part of why she doesn’t want to go to college.

not an auradon prep graduate. she went to private school in corona, much like her brother.

fallyn was always compared to forest in school (& from others outside of their family).

all of the teachers who had forest as a student immediately asked about him. they all drew comparisons to the tech-savvy prince.

they wondered why how the prince who was a math whiz had a sister who could barely pass algebra.

it drives her crazy. she’s her own person! stop comparing her to her brother! the prince is lame!

she abhors the thought of becoming queen. she knows that she would be an excellent queen; she just doesn’t want to be left alone. being queen means that all of her family is dead (except for fawn). it means that her brother never found love or adopted any kids. it means that she has a duty to rule the people of corona fairly.

a disaster bisexual.

had trouble after coming out with people trying to date her for her status. no one really seemed to be into her for her, ya feel?

the only one of her siblings to not be homosexual, which she finds hilarious (as do i; it’s why i did it).

loves to brew potions. especially since she doesn’t have the healing half of the powers, fallyn needs her potions to feel like she can compete with her siblings.

“why does she need to compete? you said she didn’t care that she can’t heal.”

great question hypothetical asker! she only doesn’t mind that she can’t heal herself. when it comes to healing others, she wishes that she could.

she lowkey hates that forest does everything he can to avoid needing his powers. fallyn wants to use those powers to help people! how dare he pretend he doesn’t have these amazing powers!

full name: princess fawn fausta fitzherbert

born fifteen years after forest, making her fifteen years old.

mckenna grace fc.

takes after their mother the most out of the three siblings. she’s the physical artist--loving poetry & painting, much like rapunzel in her formative years.

the baby of the family. all of her relatives dote on her. she can get anything she wants with some puppy eyes & a pout (much like forest as a kid).

aunt anna (& uncle kristoff, but to a lesser extent) are the least immune to her puppy eyes.

punzie & eugene are the most immune--they’ve been exposed to them the longest.

a pastel bitch. put her in pinks & light oranges--she will be happy.

these are also the lesbian colors, but she has yet to come out to most people, so she will just quote them as being “for the aesthetic.”

the only people she’s come out to as a lesbian is her older siblings.

she knows that her whole family would be accepting, as would the people of corona (after all, when rapunzel’s gone they’re going to have a gay king), but just doesn’t want anyone to think any differently of the family as a whole. all of the kids being queer isn’t something people are used to seeing too often.

so instead, she only ever goes to forest for advice on this topic. (fallyn is anxious enough w/o fawn adding her problems, so she doesn’t ask her sister for help).

she also doesn’t want to come out so that girls will start trying to use her for her status. forest & fallyn already had enough issues with this and fawn doesn’t want to go through the same thing. at least with boys she doesn’t feel bad turning them down.

unlike her brother, fawn loves her healing powers. she uses them whenever anyone around her gets hurt. she also has no problem with the fact that her powers won’t let her scar or bruise, whereas forest has a major problem with it.

currently goes to the same private school in corona that her siblings went to.

the teachers still make comparisons to her siblings, but it is less often than what fallyn had to deal with since most of the teachers are newer & didn’t have forest as a student.

being fifteen years younger, fawn & forest aren’t all that close in the “traditional” sibling sense. (after all, he was already a hs grad by the time she was able to form memories). instead, she thinks of him more as a protector or a third parent.

he acts like a parental figure towards his sisters often enough for this to be a fair comparison.

she’s much closer to fallyn, who’s only four years older than her.

would 100% abdicate the throne if she became queen. it (her becoming queen) won’t happen because that would mean that her entire family is dead (as she is last in line), but she knows that she would suck as a ruler & was abdicate.

wants to go to college for art & become a comic book artist. this ties in with her love of poetry & drawing. anakin —☆— headcanons

owen skyline

twenty-one years old / son of ares / tye sheridan fc

owen was adopted by the skylines when he was six & that’s when they changed his last name. he doesn’t even remember what his original surname was. to him, it doesn’t matter as he is a skyline through and though.

owen is a son of ares who mills met while in foster care. neither of them knew that the other was a demigod, much less that their parents were opposites.

the skylines did eventually adopt mills, but not after quite a few roadbumps on both of their parts.

mills ran away after they first tried asking him if they could adopt him. it took coaxing from his social worker to bring him back.

the skylines had to dig deeper into mills’s trauma as to why he didn’t know if he could do permanent.

owen had to get anger management as even if he was calm around mills, he still wanted to make sure that he knew what to do if he ever got mad at his mills.

owen has anger issues--a shit ton of them & yes that is a scientific measurement--but he forces himself to calm down for mills. he knows that the boy is fragile. he knows that mills has been through a lot in his life.

ever since finding out that mills is a demigod (long story), owen has become a lot nicer to the other unclaimed kids--they are in pain from not knowing. he even went as far as to get mills a spot in the ares cabin so he could be around family.

lani pedersen

a daughter of phobos cursed by hecate--lani pedersen has had a rough life. or rather, rough lives. her curse began as soon as she was born, a punishment for her mother’s hubris. lani would never live more than twenty years before being reborn with the same face & same father. the only ones who knew of her curse were her & her mother.

she started as a kitchen maid to the danish royal family over two hundred years ago. this is how she met & became friends with princess rhianon iv. they bonded over wanting more than the life they were given. rhianon wanted freedom & lani wanted the same.

but then rhianon ran away. the night of her ball to choose a suitor, rhianon vanished. lani, though heartbroken, moved on with her life for six more months before her curse killed her.

rhianon, now going by rhis, came back to denmark a year after joining the hunt to try & convince her friend to join as well. all she was met with was a gravestone. the goddess hecate appeared to tell rhis about how her friend was cursed. “she’s not dead. just in a new body. maybe you’ll find her & rid her of my curse.” the goddess disappeared in a puff of smoke.

rhis went on a journey to find her friend’s new form only to meet l’ranah mikhail, daughter of phobos. l’ranah knew of her curse and of her old life as lani. but l’ranah wasn’t lani, not fully. she didn’t have the same friendship with rhis that lani did.

over the decades, rhis has met lani’s soul time and time again, always in a new body, always younger than twenty. lani’s forms each had their own life that rhis refused to meddle in. lani’s soul may be within each of these girls, but who knows if they would enjoy rhis’s company.

currently, lani’s soul is in the body of an english girl named cleo mcknapp.

cleo & rhis have crossed paths multiple times, but it’s always just a quick interaction. they both know who the other is, cleo having the memories of all of lani’s past lives & rhis having clung to the memory of her soulmate.

cleo wants to build a friendship like the one they had all those years ago, a friendship like they had when she was still lani, but the seventeen year old knows that her time is almost up before moving on and being a baby once more.

she trains hard at camp half blood during the summers and searches for a way to take away her curse. possibly by joining the hunters of artemis, but who knows if that would even break hecate’s curse. it would just be a hail mary. cleo doesn’t know if she should cling to that hope or not.

cath walker

full name catherine catrina walker, cath is a child of thanatos. they are agender, but use she / they pronouns, often switching between them midsentence. her gender identity is why they choose to go by “cath.”

born in greenland to a rich & famous family. that’s what having an actor father & a singer mother does to someone. she had everything they could ever want due to said money. anything she ever asked for was bought.

one thing that cath never had was the love of their family. this is why they went online, spending more time than healthy on a website called “omegle.” it was on this site that cath met a texan boy by the name of “anakin mcalister.” the two hit it off, trading twitter handles. as they got to know each other, now using twitter to communicate, they exchanged phone numbers as well.

one day, anakin texted cath that he had found out something about himself and might not be able to talk for a while, but could be found in new york. he said that his phone would still be active & to get in touch if she ever needed him, even if he might not respond right away.

the night of the text, cath was on a boat to new york. they found their way to camp half blood, where they were claimed by thanatos right away. she was ushered into cabin twenty-eight, only to see a face that they knew very well--anakin.

the two hit it off even more than ever. the fact that they were siblings explained a lot. even after anakin’s promotion to head counselor & adoption, the two remained close. cath even became anakin’s second in command. when he can’t be there, cath is in charge.

cath’s a tough fighter who had to learn from her mistakes. that’s why they go hard in training and when it’s her turn to be counselor. they’re strict, but not strict without reason.

[rcdiostcrs]

the people of halloweentown have conflicting feelings about their royal family. the skellingtons are figurehead royals—the mayor is the actual executive branch—but even with that out of the way, the royal family is weird. all of the kids are adopted with three vastly different origin stories.

the eldest, eleven, is from valentine village and is a living doll—not unlike the matriarch, sally—though of whose making is unclear. there’s thirteen as the weirdest—a demigod who chose reincarnation over the afterlife and then stumbled into halloweentown. and then there’s seven, the youngest by a smidge. an amnesiac ghost who spawned in the town upon death.

seven thinks that it’s stupid that the people care that their next gen royals aren’t royal by blood (hell—only thirteen even has blood!), but it pales in comparison to how other royals treat the skellington children. since they don’t actual rule their kingdom, some of the other princes/princesses think of them as lesser than. other dislike them for the same reason as previously stated--their lack of royal blood.

most others are kind, just conflicted. seven hates that they’re even conflicted. who cares that the skellingtons are adopted & figurehead royals?? they’re still the pumpkin princes & the pumpkin princess!

i started making an npc post about khya’s siblings... & i got attached to daniel... & now i want to add him as a muse...
