#super galaxy kindred

[thetristoneera]

Hi, out of the many characters I created back in 1997; these are the few that were never changed out.  They have always been Sixelors; six niggas selling bounty supremacy.  They only have a reputation with the Bounty Board System; in multiple galaxies.  The Super Warriors Guild, the establishment of neutral minded super beings; with them being contracted there, they will make decisions for their betterment & then everyone else's.  Sometimes it serves to be allies to villains, then there is the other option.  They will be characters that will appear in the story too many times, that will border on being annoyingly powerful; on purpose.  Other times, they will fit with the epilogue at hand.  You'd have to pay close attention to determine if they are on the right side of justice.

Let me take you back, real quick...  To a time when these six were at the edge of orphanage; too many times, trauma would get it into their heads that they'll only have oneself to rely on.  Surviving their youth would have you trying to count how bad life really was.  When they found each other, they chose each other as family.  A kindred of spirits it seemed, with them being Level Omega Super Beings (Technically Level 6), trusting each other was able to put that together.  Been running around multiple galaxies, helping with making tomorrow a better day, since.  All they are trying to do, revolves around orphanages.  Consisting of a devil, two humans & three angels; the combination is more intense than that.  As one of the relations is gay, two are hetero & one is inter species.  It's an incredible family with a more incredible line up of super powers: a warlock, poltergiest magic, two astronomy wielders, a Gunpod Einhander wielder, a life wielder & one who can control bacteria and viruses.  Omega, up & down; they be.  Tread incredibly lite, they never hesitate to practice their licenses to kill.

Now to explain those with blue skin.  In this world, it's a normal thing to catch any of these five races; Oboto (Black Skinned), Dagoaden (Green Skinned), Nexion (Red Skinned), Actonese (Blue Skinned) or Luminarian (White Skinned).  They've been around since the dawn of time for this set of humanity.  They know of nothing of the people that existed in the galaxy before they lost the ability to archeology anything back; 8400 years.  All they know now a days is, the Species Wars over two thousand yester years have made merpeople, elves & fairies extinct.  There is no such thing as racism in this world, there is a sharp reality of the golden rule; as this is the most powerful Tri Stone universe.  Where no matter what, barbarianism has not been a lost culture.  There is no such thing as a lot of real life trauma in this universe; it has always been a kill or be killed world.  Never a torture so I can live kind of world.  It's all because of the god that courses through the ether of this universe.  They call this phenomenon, the Crown.  It will come down every January the 2nd of the human year & announce to humanity; that a list of names are those who will have wishes to be, granted.  Judging absolutely everything & anything, everyone knows they are being judged in this universe.  There's nothing they can do about it but be about it.  the Order is, do what you feel is best; or you'll be punished by never getting a wish.  Over the many millennia, the judgment has always been about barbarianism; if you have the magical might & vessel fortitude to act as a god; you deserve whatever you want.  If you're not out righting the injustices of the world, what else are you good for?  the Culture...

Base of Operations: Planet Aurlus, the Cloudlands Being / Alliance: the Super Warrior Guild / Occupation: Galactic Bounty, Militant Squad For Hire / Their Order: Mostly, Seeing To Ultra Class Care of Orphans; Minorly, Galactic Class Hit Squad

I"m on a Mass Effect kick rn, and I think this will be fun. 1. Garrus, he's my homebody, trying to bring down Saren from the inside, and also listening to my advice as I guide him down a path of helping others and not killing on sight. 2. This one is a toss up between Legion and Thane, but I have to pick Thane. This one doesn't have a reason other than I think he's cool and when I'm playing modded I make a custom biotic assassin class and we're the assassin duo. 3. Javik, even if he's an asshole he's so unique and that final handshake on Earth just solidifies my friendship with him. Shep is the only one (minus one indoctrinated Asari) to have the cipher, a tiny piece of Javik's old life lives in this Avatar of Victory. Hell ya they're besties, even the most Paragon shep i've played. 4. Carnifex, the emotional baggage in that pistol. it needs it's own therapist. [later edit: my carnifex killed the proto-reaper in my latest playthrough so it’s now legendary in my book] 5. Black Widow, basic but i'm a sniper at heart [even if i point blank fellas with this head exploding cannon] 6. Sentinel, the first class I ever played. While I also love Adept, sentinel feels the most rounded. biotics tech and combat [even if it's just the guns] 7. The planet in ME1 with that sphere that needs the trinket from the Consort. IRL me is a huge Stone Age nerd so seeing the Mass Effect universe Stone Age people be effected by the goings on of the galaxy tickled me silly. 8. Feros, the Thorian is so cool and I wish I didn't have to kill it. Such a unique life form, I wanna be it's friend. Thanks Saren for fucking that one up too. 9. Collector Derelict, the revelations, the fights, the WIDOW 10. Eden Prime, I get to take a Prothean out of a freezer, enough said 11. Garrus, the slow build up from the friendship growing in the first game, to the awkward flirting of two people who might die soon in the second, to the love and care he gives Shep in the third. but thane is a close second [the stab in the but that is his death, oof ouch my heart] 12. JAVIK, Shepard has the cipher, they're kindred spirits and all we get is a throw away seen in the Citadel DLC if Femshep never romanced a soul. 13. Mako, i'm crawling up a damn mountain where Liara likes it or not. 14. Liara... I understand her appeal but I'm just not a fan of her. She's cool, but she's just not it for me. 15. Zaeed, he might not be super unique, he's Grizzled Grampa Merc in love with a rifle, but he's fun 16. never played multiplayer, but i only ever play as a biotic class so something biotic and hopefully a sniper rifle. 17. see above 18. SR-2, feels like home 19. Synthesis. I worked to hard to kill of the geth and EDI is my friend, control sounds cool until i'm a billion years old and have lost touch, and while synthesis means making a choice for everyone, it also means maybe peace can be achieved for a while. 20. Paragon, or Paragade [paragon til you cross the line that only I know]. Renagade just feels out of like with me IRL and I role-play HEAVY in mass effect [glorified self-insert at times] so being an asshole hurts my heart.

MASS EFFECT QUESTIONNAIRE BY WHO KNOWS WOO!

1: sticking solely to their appearance and accomplishment in me1, kaiden he's quite sweet and a little dorky and I like his arc of becoming more asure of his biotic abilities.

2: garrus is at his best in this game, a mix of wow your back and angst and him tryna be batman

3: james is goober and I love him, btw tali was a close second in all 3 of these questions

4: GPS

5: GPS

6: soldier or sentinel

7: Uranus

8,9,10: noveria, tuchanka, all of the citidel dlc

11: liara because you can romance her in all three games

12: wrex and lesbian tali

13: mako

14, 15: Ashley and kaiden respectively

16, 17: never played the multi-player

18: SAINTS ROW 2

19: green

20: renegade is fun but going full renegade sucks and I'd rather go full paragon then renegade especially in some decisions, renegade small talk but paragon decisions

Now here's my super special question for yall that I'll answer too

21: did yall ever forget to feed the fish be I sure as hell did

I’m so happy for these skins. Here’s my contribution. :^)

Mind the pause, I didn’t have much footage to insert. I’m sure someone else can do a MUCH better video and I look forward to seeing that :D

Hey there! 😃 So I'm thinking up ways to do a 'super galaxy kindred' display, but I'm stuck on what I could do for her armour. Seeing, as how glossy it is I'm extremely lost! I was thinking EVA foam and/or maybe gluing fabric on top, but idk if that would give the look I need. Also I'm unsure of what tools I'd need (still a beginner to display aha) but if you have any thoughts at all that'd be great!

Hello there!

You are on the right track with fabric-covered EVA foam. I would use a stretch vinyl for a smooth, glossy appearance. Here’s a video that will walk you through the steps.

As for equipment, the bare minimum would be your cutting implements (scissors, X-acto knife), heat gun, safety equipment (respirator, eye protection), and your adhesives. For this project I would strongly recommend a rotary tool (Dremel is the most popular brand) so you can sand the curved edges for a clean and smooth look that you can’t get by hand. If the armor were flatter in appearance you could easily go without, but you’ll want rounded edges on that shoulder piece in particular. Here’s the armor section of our site (look at both craft foam armor and EVA foam armor -- they’re the same thing, but it’s split up for some reason), and here’s an intro guide to foam armor. I’d also recommend looking up The Evil Ted on youtube for some great foamsmithing tutorials.

I hope that helps! Good luck :]

She was known as the Nami-Mommy throughout most of the community and worked on a BUNCH of skins.  She posted this on her Riot anniversary on June 30th of all the skins she worked on:

[iamnightduchess]

Pretty please make your Marvel and RK crossover idea a reality with an HC when you have the time. PLEEEEEASE 🖤

Thank you for the Ask. Sorry for the delayed answer but I hope this fits!🧩🧩🧩

CW: Some spoilers ahead if you're yet to view the following series.

ReiKasa x Marvel Cinematic Universe Crossover Headcanon #023

Reiner and Mikasa both are very profound in terms of their raw strength and savior energies. In cross fandom universes, they would be the ultimate superhero couple. Well, Reiner very possibly would begin as an anti-hero from Marley who would eventually discover an initial kindred spirit type of camaraderie before it develops into an intense battle synergy & palpable chemistry with the all-Eldian super heroine, Mikasa Ackerman. From two opposing forces, Reiner and Mikasa would somehow find their stars aligned in the cosmos that would bind them together as each other's ride or die. With that in mind, these 3 pairings from the Marvel Cinematic Universe would best be embodied by ReiKasa in their own special ways.

1) Thor & Mighty Thor (Jane Foster)

Apart from sharing similar physique - buff and sturdy body frame and roguish facial shape and hair, Reiner embraces Thor's honor, pride and an almost fallen out of grace moment in his life as he goes through a period of lost and searching for himself. Thor finds himself allying with the Guardians of the Galaxy in order to save the remaining humanity from Thanos (which more or less had an almost similar ideal as SnK's big bad, Eren Jeager), same as what Reiner did in SnK's final arc when he allied with the surviving elite members of the Survey Corps.

Meanwhile, Mikasa would embody the Mighty Thor's relentless fight for the greater good even if she knows that by doing so, she would be sacrificing the most important part of herself all for humanity. This resonated so well in SnK's canonverse. Mikasa has a steely resolve to save humanity at all costs, the same way Jane Foster did as the Mighty Thor. If Mjolnir had chosen Jane as the one worthy enough to wield it, the Founder Ymir had chosen Mikasa to be the one who eventually eliminates the Titan curse & liberates her from her 2,000 years worth of inter-dimensional self-imposed imprisonment.

Traits: The couples shares resilience, bravery and impeccable teamwork.

And just imagine, Thor!Reiner holding Stormbreaker standing back to back with MightyThor!Mikasa wielding Mjolnir as the God & Goddess of Thunder?

💯 Fresh & Epic!

2) Iron Fist (Danny Rand) & Colleen Wing

Dubbed as the daughter of the Dragon, Colleen Wing is a martial artist and instructor. Similar to Mikasa, who's of Japanese blood (Hizuru in SnK), both are exceptional blade wielders and hardened fighters. Where Colleen used Chi manipulation, Mikasa was blessed with awakened Ackerman powers that blessed them both with superhuman strength. Both bear a strong character based on discipline, and both prefer to fight their own battles rather than have someone else do the job for them. Mikasa & Colleen uphold a specific code of conduct - loyalty, courage, veracity, compassion, and honor above all else.

Meanwhile, Reiner and Danny, were both blessed with amazing powers from a mythical legend. Both were forced to survive through a rough childhood and intense systematic training as children. Danny inherited the power of the Iron Fist through the heart of K'un-Lun's mythical beast, Shun-Lao the Undying while Reiner inherited the power of the Armored Titan through his predecessor.

Traits: The couples are very in-sync in battles with complementing styles & moves. And yes, exceptional tag team energy.

3) Moon Knight (Marc Spector/Steven Grant) & Scarlet Scarab (Layla El-Faouly)

Marc Spector (Moon Knight) is a character which is well known for his DID, whereas he has 3 identities/alters which draw similarities to Reiner's duality in the series (despite SnK's guidebook stating that it's fictional 'schizophrenia'), where it was shown that Reiner dissociated heavily that he had two sides - Warrior and Soldier. It may not necessarily be a different consciousness but it involved something as equally complex. Both Marc and Reiner's psyche began to split due to a traumatic incident when they were younger and both are/were in military. Where Marc Spector (one of the alters) was chosen as an avatar by the Egyptian Moon God, Khonshu, Reiner was chosen to wield the Armored, one of the Nine Titans in his universe.

Layla is Marc's (& Stephen) wife who works together with her husband to stop a villain & an ancient deity from unleashing judgment & destruction upon humanity, very similar to Reiner, Mikasa and the Alliance's combined efforts to stop Eren Jeager's the Rumbling through the ancient Founder's will. Layla, (spoiler alert!), is also a chosen avatar by one of the Egyptian Goddess, granting her many abilities including superhuman strength, agility, durability, stamina and reflexes, which are similar to Mikasa's Awakened Ackerman powers.

Traits: The couples have distintinctive battle prowess and deeply care about the other. Despite the challenges and separation, they persevered to protect mankind through the powers that were bestowed upon them.

It's a bit shorter than usual but thanks again for the fun Ask! 💕💯

Hair Headcanons: Interlude

Part 1 (Cuivienen) here.

Hair colors! This isn't so much about culture but it's important to my headcanons nonetheless! Cowards are out here drawing elves with boring hair when it could be so much better /lh! I (tragically) can't see hair dying as being very common since: 1) bleaches and chemical dyes (which the Noldor totally could've invented) damage your hair which elves are all about keeping healthy, and 2) that's not applicable for natural dyes, but so many elves have dark hair and I'd imagine having your natural color would be considered more attractive anyways, especially with how long they typically keep it (which would take an absurd amount of dye to color) the roots would grow out like crazy once you stopped keeping it up. But just because they wouldn't dye their hair, doesn't mean they can't have interesting colors! Especially once you take a little poetic license on what Tolkien canonically described... This post was a big inspiration on how elves would think of Aesthetics re: hair, and also just fits the Vibe.

Onto pretending to know stuff about biology! Elves are mammals (I assume) which means that they can't have naturally blue or green hair, since mammals don't produce the right forms of pigment for it (though this is magic so ignore that if it sparks joy) but we get lots of elves described with silver or grey hair, clearly not from age, and Galadriel's hair is described as being both silver and gold- the impression I got was that it was streaked, not all one color, which gave me the idea that elves can have patchwork-hair: not just natural highlights and lowlights but streaks of different colors (Also brought to you by my dad's galaxy brained take of 'elves can see in ultraviolet wavelengths and have patterns in their hair like flowers have to attract bees'). How does this work? Codominance? Doesn't matter, it's cool. Elf genetics don't work like human ones. I also think that elf hair has different- finishes I guess? Not just based on texture. So while Super Shiny is an option, there are also elves with a more diffused shine that looks more matte, and a whole range in between. While Shiny is probably preferred, and more common in those who've spent time around Ainur or their stuff, I do think there are Looks that they'd like more with matte hair. (This is the big difference between "grey" and "silver"- even if they're the same color the shine is different.)

Some notes on the colors: Vanyar/part Vanyar are canonically the only elves with golden-blond hair, but I also think that elves get way more specific with hair colors than we do, so while only Vanyar have golden hair other elves might have colors that we'd consider blonde (i.e. platinum blond, strawberry blond, or dirty blond for Teleri) and some might have gold adjacent (red-gold, bronze, copper for Noldor). Also, I know the only elves explicitly with red hair are Nerdanel's family, but I think taking that at face value is boring (especially since I don't see Mahtan as being Unbegotten). I made sure that all the hair colors were at least mostly-plausible for humans, so if hair is described as "shining blue" I'm just taking poetic license, don't go around imagining them glowing electric-blue (unless that sparks joy ¯\_(ツ)_/¯), but rather the blueish shine some black hair has. Same with "greenish"- it means ashy blond/brown, not algae growing on them like a sloth.

Anyway! Onto the overly descriptive headcanons! (With tl;drs at the end of each section)

The Vanyar all have hair like light. Gold is the usual, all different shades from the pale brilliance of the reddest stars to the warm orangey glow of a hot fire, to the pure shine of Laurelin's rays. Some have silver hair as well, like a haze of light breaking through clouds, or Telperion's radiance. They are the only kindred to see the rarest of colors: pure, brilliant white that shines nearly blue, like the crackle of lightning. Their hair is often darker at the roots, like a gradient display of ambient light. (Most common: Thematically Appropriate gold. Fanciest: Pure white thanks to OxiClean (not sponsored). Most attractive feature: the Shinie)

The Noldor have hair like the earth and its treasures. Black seems most common, but often it will look plain at a glance, and in the light its true colors will be revealed- deep greys and rich soil brown and dark dark bronzes and coppers, and sometimes even the barest glint of sapphire- though true black is not uncommon either. All shades of brown and dark-russet red can be seen, sometimes metal-shining, sometimes flat and deep like stone. Silver is rare and prized. Hair often grows out streaked in different shades of their color, or even of others. Silver streaks in dark hair are considered quite attractive, but the rarest and most beautiful color is shining true-reds- like forge fire and magma and molten metal- closely matched by true black subtly streaked with blue-black and red-black and every other color giving a near iridescence like the oil found underground. (Most common: Off-blacks. Fanciest: Fire red but literal. Most attractive feature: Pretty color- shinie like magpie nest, want to touch, Steal.)

The Falmari have hair like the sea shore. Silver like light glinting off water, or the morning mists over the sea. Greys like clouds rolling in- near white to deep and dark like a brewing storm. Pale creams and browns are most often seen, like sand or driftwood, some nearly greenish like seafoam. Their hair can be darker too: the deeper greys and browns of a stormy sea, sometimes greenish again, and rarely blue-black. The favorite colors, though, are those like seashells- the Falmari's hair tends to streak like the Noldor's, which lends itself well to the artistic stripes and gradations that inspired the comparison. Cream and tan, grey with silvers, and most attractively a pinky-yellow and rosy brown. The rarest is a shiny off-white mixed with the lightest creams and silvers and almost-pinks, the iridescent pearl to contrast Noldorin oil-slick. (Most common: Ashy/dirty blond. Fanciest: Light pinky strawberry blond with rose brown streaks (ideally in a pattern). Most attractive feature: Pinterest cottagecore colors.)

The Sindar have hair like their forest. It's similar to the Falmari who split from them, but frequently darker and with less of a shine. Star-silver is rare- far more common is tones of grey like stones and tree bark, often with streaks in varying shades- most beautifully demonstrated in "birch hair": near-white patterned with near-black. Grey-and-silver like aged wood is equally prized. Green tones appear as well- in greys like lichen and in browns like the forest floor. Browns in general are often seen, from fresh-fallen timber to dying leaves to mushroom brown-and-cream, though the more saturated shades of chestnut appear more frequently to the east, among the ranks of the Laiquendi. The Iathrim typically have both the lightest and darkest hair: stars and loamy soil are more frequent within Melian's boundaries, though among those with purely Sindarin heritage, true hair like shadows was only found in her descendants. (Most common: Grey like Thingol's lack of humor. Fanciest: Very light silver (bonus if it's got a subtle pattern). Most attractive feature: Patternpatternpatternpatternpa-)

The Nandor have hair like trees. All shades of greys and browns like branches and bark and the creatures that live between them: most beautiful when they mimic the animal, gradient like squirrels and streaked off-whites like deer and striped darker like owls. Also often found are creams and tans and yellows like raw wood, sometimes tinted greenish with growth, sometimes silvery with age. And vibrant reds and oranges and yellows and browns like nuts and fruits and berries, which rarely dapple and stripe together into the brilliant blaze of an autumn forest. (Most common: Brown. Fanciest: Chlorophyllic forest-fire cosplay, the more colors the better. Most attractive feature: Pattern pattern CARNIVAL!)

The Avari-true Avari, who have remained East and Easter still- have hair like hidden things. Blood and bones and obsidian stones. Browns and reds and yellows striped like jasper, the grey of cave walls and still deep water, the pale cream of polished ivory left forgotten, the near-green tan of an antler weathered on the ground. Their hair does not often shine like those who followed the gods, or pattern the same as the groups who have remained as one over the long-years, but the colors in shadows that some wear are no less beautiful for it. (Most common: Dark reds probably. Fanciest: Black with very thin stripes of color. Most attractive feature: The AestheticTM)
