First glance at Blaze's alternate design for the Verglas AU! In my AU, Blaze is no longer the protector of all 7 Sol Emeralds... but why? Maybe it's for the better... things went awry the last time they were all kept by just one person.

small cw for toony ahh blood

Companion piece to the Verglas AU's first story, Permafrost Core, which I just finished writing!! It's a prequel meant to give a biiit more context for Permafrost Heart, although I still need to rewrite that fic lol.

Rita does survive this attack, long enough to seal V away with Mayra's help. The two decide not to document Vendetta's existence in the Sol Empire's archives, which is part of the reason Blaze is caught off guard when Eggman Nega and Navette break into the castle's underground levels to bust her out many years later.

Unfortunately (for Rita), she succumbed to her injuries sometime after Vendetta was successfully put into cryostasis & the room was sealed off.

But how did Eggman Nega know? Well, he'd learned that for every powerful force in one dimension, an equal one must exist in another. At the time, the "Shadow variant" was still unaccounted for in the Sol Dimension. So, he took it upon himself to find the variant and free them, in hopes of using their power for his own schemes.

That's where this all leads into Permafrost Heart, the main story.

SONIC VERGLAS AU: LORE UPDATE

Holders of the Sol Emeralds

There will come a time that Blaze realizes keeping all seven Sol Emeralds together at all times is no longer viable. Blaze doesn't like talking about the threat that made her come to this conclusion - instead, she tells everyone that she simply realized it wasn't smart to risk bad actors getting all seven at once.

Or... in the case of the Plant Kingdom and the Nightseer Clan, she claims it's a gesture of alliance and goodwill.

Blaze hates to lie, but she'll do what she must for the good of her world.

ELEMENTS OF THE SEVEN SOL EMERALDS

RED: Fire

YELLOW: Electricity

WHITE: Light

GREEN: Nature

CYAN: Ice

BLUE: Water

PURPLE: Darkness

Although element manipulators and kinesis users are uncommon, each one will always be the most compatible with the Emerald that corresponds to their elemental power. All Elemental powers stem from the seven elements, with subcategories under each one. For example, healing is a subcategory of light.

The most powerful element users have -kinesis abilities (pyrokinesis, cryokinesis, hydrokinesis, umbrakinesis, etc.), as they are able to both summon and manipulate their element. Some of the most well-known individuals are Blaze (pyrokinesis), Vendetta (cryokinesis), and Marine (hydrokinesis).

Element Manipulators are still capable of being powerful in their own right, but their element must be present for their power to work.

For those who use subcategories of the Elements, they're not always able to use their Element in its pure form, and vice versa. It all depends on the individual. It's uncertain whether one can be trained to use - or not use - powers in the subcategories.

DISTRIBUTION OF THE SOL EMERALDS

RED: Held by Blaze. This Emerald has a long history of being held by the royal family, no matter what happens. It's rarely seen with anyone else. Probably the most well-guarded Sol Emerald.

YELLOW: Being temporarily held by Vendetta, upon request by Blaze. They haven't found a trustworthy holder for this Emerald yet, but Blaze doesn't like holding onto too many anymore. Very well-guarded. It does briefly fall into the hands of someone from the Chaos Dimension, in hopes of preventing a disaster by removing one Emerald from the equation...

WHITE: Being temporarily held by Blaze. She hasn't found a trustworthy holder for this Emerald yet. (cough, a character doesn't exist yet lol) Naturally very well-guarded.

GREEN: Held by the Plant Kingdom. Usually in the individual possession of a member of Seedrian royalty, or their strongest warriors. Although it's guarded by the whole kingdom, being in the hands of so many is a risk in itself.

CYAN: Held by Vendetta, permanently. Blaze was initially hesitant to hand it over to V, but she is the only known cryokinesis user... and Blaze knows V can be trusted with it, if not much else. It's guarded fiercely. She'll hold it for eternity, if possible. This Emerald, along with the red Emerald, are the hardest to separate from their holders.

BLUE: Held by Marine. Initially, Blaze was going to entrust it to the neighboring Aqua Kingdom - but the raccoon begged and nagged until she gave in. Thankfully, Marine's usually on the open seas - giving this Emerald some extra protection. Marine loves using this Emerald to boost her now fully-fledged hydrokinesis abilities, and to power her water-based inventions. But she doesn't seem to take the Emerald's power all that seriously and if found, it's likely the easiest to steal.

PURPLE: Stolen and held by Navette. It was initially entrusted to the Nightseer Clan, but Navette decided to make it her own. The Clan hasn't come after it for unknown reasons. Not very well guarded, as Navette isn't actually that strong.

VERGLAS VENDETTA - Animation Test (plus the still image!)

I don't think I've revealed much about her on Tumblr specifically, but this is Vendetta's equivalent to a Super form. I figured Verglas Vendetta made much more sense than "Super Vendetta" because she's from the Sol Dimension, and therefore uses those emeralds to transform. It's also meant to match the naming scheme of Burning Blaze.

I'm sooo excited to share more about my Sonic AU!! I've made a lot of progress with the Verglas AU over the past few days, I just want to make sure I'm happy & get more stuff done before I release more of the story behind this edgy Blaze slash Shadow doppelganger :)
