Tales of Chima as Text Posts, part 8
Got a bunch of repeats here. Laval in the second one of his is lying to himself as a coping mechanism.

The Displaced Chimans
Our favorite fearless (or sometimes fearful) heroes have found themselves on the plane of Arcavios, transformed and disconnected from their home and peoples. They've decided to play along for now, remaining at Strixhaven University to understand their new (or not-so-new) magic and bide their time while they search for a way home. The amount of willingness to conform to the first-year dress code varies between each of them, with some being more agreeable about the white-and-grey than others.
Cragger Ponteid

Transformed from a Crocodile into a Croc-like lizardfolk, Cragger's found himself wielding water elemental magic upon his mysterious arrival to Strixhaven. He's decided to study to get into the College of Witherbloom and keep an eye on things alongside Emily Zephyras. His water magic manifests as swamp water due to his homesickness.
Eris Notus
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
This isn't Eris's first extraplanar rodeo - unknown to the other Chimans, Eris is a planeswalker, bearer of a spark that allows her to travel to other planes in the Multiverse. This is her first time waking up on a different plane as an elf instead of an Eagle, though, so she's just as confused as the others. She's already got a strong connection to her wind magic (to the point where she can summon wings with her magic), but she's currently working on understanding her new fire powers as well thanks to her mysterious connection to the Phoenixes. She's working to get into the Quandrix College, trying to find a solution to their transformation through the mathematical magic practed there.
Laval Vestalia

Of all of the Chimans, Laval changed the least - from Lion to leonin. His magic manifests as the element of fire due to his desire to make sure the others are comfortable even as they search for a way home. He's aiming to join the Lorehold College to use that as his own stepping stone to a solution that will get them home.
Razar Pheletes

Razar is actually having a great time, despite being transformed from a Raven into an elf. Strixhaven University is home to its own underground methods of acquiring goods, and he's found himself with powerful spoken magic that helps with persuasion and talking people in circles. In order to better this new skill, Razar is aiming to join the Silverquill College - mostly to see if he can gain secrets other students or faculty therein may have that will help them get home.
Scorm Imperator
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Scorm is, to literally no one's surprise, incredibly pissed off about these circumstances. First he wakes up on Arcavios transformed from a Scorpion into a human (and struggling with balance due to losing his tail), then he discovers that half of the heroes of Chima he fought are also there, then he finds himself worrying himself sick over his Scorpions and the other Crawlers, and finally, on top of all that, he finds out the hard way how menstrual cycles work. There are only three things he considers to be "going in his favor": his new friend and ally in Emily Zephyras (and her sibling Onyx to a lesser extent), his newfound talent at archery, and his new elemental magic that manifests in the form of earth and stone. It's just enough to make him willing to work alongside Chima's heroes to get home. He's playing along and studying for Silverquill, though he's thiiiis fucking close to snapping.

So, as those of you who witnessed my spiral in my Chima Discord server know, I recently realized that my Tales of Chima series had some fascinating parallels with Egyptian mythology and divines therein, which is fun because that's one of the pantheons I worship and honor as a polytheist.
Well, I decided to be a lot more intentional from the get-go when it came to mythological and religious references in Chimahaven, starting with the surnames of our protagonists:
Emily and Onyx Zephyras: Derived from Zephyros, the Greek god of the west wind and one of the Anemoi. This gives them both a connection between the two of them to all four classical elements (with Emily having earth-as-plants and Onyx using steam magic, a combination of fire and water). It also gives Onyx a stronger connection to their elemental Prismari college.
Dennari Areia: Derived from the epithet Areia, meaning "the Warlike", used for the goddesses Aphrodite and Athena in ancient Greece. This emphasizes Dennari's combat magic specialty and ties her more into her Lorehold college. Her first name is also a reference to the denarius, the standard Roman silver coin introduced during the Second Punic War.
Eris Notus: Derived from Notos, the Greek god of the south wind and one of the Anemoi. This gives her a connection to both her air/wind elemental magic and the fire-based powers granted to her by her strange connection to the Phoenixes.
Scorm Imperator: Unlike the others, Scorm's surname isn't derived from a Greek or Roman god. It's instead derived from the scientific name for the emperor scorpion, Pandinus imperator, because that's what I've clocked the Scorpion Tribe as. This has nothing to do with his magic in this setting, he's just here.
Cragger Ponteid: Cragger's surname is derived from the Greek primordial ocean god, Pontos, who was the biggest ocean guy on the block before Okeanos showed up (and then later Poseidon). This ties Cragger back into his home swamp and into his water elemental magic.
Razar Pheletes: Razar's surname comes from an epithet for Hermes (Φηλητης, Phêlêtês, of which he is the only bearer) that means "Thief", "Robber", and "Rustler". It felt quite fitting, especially since Razar's magic is vocal instead of elemental in nature.
Laval Vestalia: Derived from the ancient Roman festival of Vestalia, which ran from June 7th to June 15th and honored the hearth goddess Vesta. Since Laval has the most prominent fire elemental magic of our protagonists (besides possibly Onyx), I felt that depicting it as the fire of the hearth was a pretty neat idea. There's a lot of focus on fire as destroyer in element-based media, so I wanted to take a different angle with Laval's magic.
So, building on this, most of the symbolism I'll use for Chimahaven will be rooted in Greek mythology/religion (of which I identify most closely with in my honoring), while adding some from later Roman mythology/religion for a little extra...texture, we'll say.

Happy Blorbo Blursday! Which of your characters/blorbos is most like you?
Thank you for the ask!
A character of TFLOC I really like... Honestly, I'd say that I like all of them, equally. I'm writing everyone with extreme care, and because of this I, I can't say I have a favorite.
But!
For this ask, I'll answer with Razar; I have so much new content about him and his tribe, to the point where I've basically rewritten his culture (no, I didn't overwrite the original Raven Tribe, it's just that the one presented in LOC is the past version in TFLOC). I hope you're also interested in him!

Hello dearie!
🏳️‍🌈 - Is same-sex seen any different than other relationships in your world? How has your blorbo been affected by this?
🦄 - Got a blorbo that isn't human? Do share!
🍪 - Which blorbo would sell out their companions for sweets?
🏳️‍🌈- No, really. Same-sex Lion couples have been seen in real life, so of course there are going to be relationships like that in Chima, without negative reception. Sexuality isn't an issue in Chima, because it isn't a big part of their culture.
Though there aren't any canon couples in LOC (excluding parents), in TFLOC there are a few!
Longtooth and Leonidas are boyfriends. Cruz and Crumb (who are LOCOnline characters, but appear in TFLOC) are also a couple.
🦄- All of the Chima characters aren't human. There are no humans in Chima!
🍪- Razar. Though it would be accidental. He's not evil, he just doesn't know how trading works lol

It is difficult for me to find all the characters' names and their status.
