TBOI: Brother's Keeper AU - Azazel

Part 2 of my collection of...sketches. Here we focus on the kids. Playground fights, kickball, swingsets and such. Kid stuff, ya know.

Lazarus and Bethany discover Azazel sleeping in a cave and befriend the lil guy with oats and granola bars. Since they go to a very Christian academy, they can't be caught with a lil demon fella, so they bring him to Mr. Cain's hideout.

As it turns out, Cain knows the lil guy, but he hasn't seen him in 25 years. He thought Zaza was dead.

TBoI headcannons/AU (I guess)

So, uhh, to the reason I got an account here💀

Me and @hyafrok were talking about how we'd approach making a TBoI AU, and I felt the need to share my, uhh, headcanon/AU stuff with someone else.

Just a bit of a warning: I might have unintentionally drawn inspiration from some ideas I've seen, so I apologise in advance if something seems similar to other AUs.

I also apologise if I sound unsure or if my wording is a bit wonky. I don't always have a specific interpretation of stuff from the game, plus expressing my thoughts in English is harder.

So, I think I can begin with saying that I prefer to keep a bit closer to canon, and it's more of a "how i would adapt game mechanics if I were to write a story" thing. 

I guess the main difference is that all characters except dead versions of Isaac are separate individuals. But are they born from the mind of Isaac or are they real? I'd actually leave it up to the interpretation.

Oh, and important note: their age for me is vague, but it's definitely not five. I'll be calling them children in this post, but they are closer to the teenagers, I guess. Or young adults.

As for the other things...

Basement and all other locations do come from the subconscious of Isaac. In fact, they would feel like something out a fever dream. A seemingly endless maze full of weird rooms, with strange creatures and items that sometimes look like they represent your experiences... Almost no character knows how this whole place works and why they're here in the first place.

Each floor is huge, by the way. So much so that multiple characters might not even meet one another.

Everyone has very little memory of coming to the Basement. They remember their past lives and veeery vaguely remember circumstances that led them to ending up in this weird place.

Characters don't use tears and rely on weapons instead. Or their ability to run away and/or distract the inhabitants of the Basement for long enough.

Keys, bombs and coins are the real thing, hearts... I'm not sure, actually. They represent different thing in the game (like blue hearts being assosiated both with holy protection, the feeling of comfort and the dead) so I feel like it'd be individual. For now, I'd treat red heart pickups as something akin to the food and blue/black ones as something closer to magical items - they dissipate on touch and create sort of an aura. They're also signs of divine/infernal protection aaand they might influence emotions (blue hearts make you feel comforted and/or happier, while black ones' effects range from the feeling of emptiness to the enhancement of negative emotions... or hidden urges. The damaging properties of the latter are also linked to the bearer's pain or hatred towards attackers). As for the starting hearts, it depends on a character.

By the way, finding pickups is more like randomly stumbling upon a lost item. Or finding it in your pockets sometimes. Anyway, they don't just... drop.

Characters need to eat and drink. Luckily, red hearts are a good food source. As for water, it can be obtained from the "wild" or bought in shops/arcade rooms. ...Yes, both these rooms additionally provide commodities.

Since there are no tears, some items have no effects and are just subproducts of the subconscious... and a source of trauma and/or confusion for some characters (would there be an episode of Cain finding Abel? Maybe). Other items, however, retain their effects and serve as a sort of amulets.

There are no heart container increases. Food is, well, food and all other items are more about regeneration or increased endurance.

Most active items and tarot should be channeled (and yes, not all characters might get the hang of it as fast). Other require a specific interaction (like throwing a dice). Actives also probably have different compatibility with different characters. Yes, these'd require some experimentation to understand how they work.

Satan exists. He's, however, not really evil: he just needs hearts/souls to keep Sheol running and... well, I think anyone would be pissed if a bunch of kids broke into their place, killed their demons and had the audacity to come directly to them.

Angels also exist, and they are willing to help as long as you don't bomb them. Why are they suddenly aggressive in the Cathedral? Well, I think anyone would be pissed if a bunch of kids broke into their cathedral, smashed all the vases and then tried to find the very source of the dungeon-

Oh, and speaking of angels and demons - Satan deals are where heart containers actually matter. With "heart up" items you can make more deals before feeling exhausted, empty and weak.

There is actually the third major force in a dungeon, and it's Ultra Greed and his greedlings. It's not clear why he surfaced in a first place, but he and his "family" are sort of dungeon keepers. Whatever is not handled by the weird dream stuff, is their job. Why are some of them suddenly aggresive? Well... That's a good question, actually. I'd personally say that some of them are just greedy assholes. As for the Ultra Greed himself, he's not particularly fond of intruders.

Aaand the last thing for now: death. Death exists, but not for the characters. Each time they die, they just go back to the beginning... while losing all of their memories. So, from their perspective they've never died and it's just an endless journey in the dungeon. However, they still might get deja vu, feel like they somehow know how things work or straight up have pieces of their memories resurface.

The only exceptions to the rule are various ressurection items. They allow the bearer to retain their memories, but the second death will work as usual, with memory wipe and all. In my head, there are only two characters that might stay undead till the end: Lazarus (the rule of death after ressurection doesn't work on him) and Judas (as a shadow).

That's probably all! I really hope that it sounds not as silly as it sounds for me, and. Yeah. Pretty nervous about it.

Yonking more rambles from Twitter. This time it’s Judass and Cain

(Context: Someone was asking tboi twt their lore reason why Cain had an eyepatch)

His eye holds a curse Lucifer and Apollyon gave him after he killed Abel. Other parts of his body has it too, but his eye is the most obvious. He also bashed out this eye himself in grief of his sin. He hides his curse to avoid accidentally hurting others with it. His proper “Mark of Cain” is on his arms (an acid burn to remind him of his murder). Which other than a stark reminder, doesn’t hold any extra effects on it like the one Apollyon and Lucifer gave him. He also willingly had his right leg amputated before medicine of any kind was available. Cain has a crazy high pain tolerance

(Context for Judas: Same person, now asking tboi twt what people’s Judas interpretations relationship was with satanism and the occult)

Funnily enough, my Judas has almost no connect to satanic worship. He hates everything Angelic or Demonic. Wanting to hunt down each and every one. His choice of red and black clothing is just a personal choice. The BoB is something he uses to control and entrap powerful entities. While hating spirits, he studies them very intensely to learn their weaknesses. Learning about magic to use their skills against them. The only ones he likes are the archangels for putting all the angels of Eden into eternal punishment. He also thinks God is cool for sending them.

Judas doesn’t really like magic, but has accepted it as apart of himself to use for “good”. He doesn’t even know why he has magic, old earth humans aren’t supposed to have any. It developed suddenly one day after the death of his father. But he made it his vow to use it to eliminate all angels and demons for the sake of mankind. The existence of Satan is not confirmed in his eyes, but he knows he’d hate them if he did ever find him. His vast knowledge of occult-like things stems from a desire to tear it apart. Basically all of the Serpentes (the family Judas is apart of) don’t like angels or demons that much. The garden of eden did not treat them kindly. Though Judas takes this mentality the farthest by far. His hatred runs deeper than anything else in his blood.

His entire family was mistreated in the garden of Eden by angels who viewed them as lesser. The tipping poing was his father being murdered by them. Though Judas is also a super dramatic individual and took the situation to an extreme it didn’t need to go to. He’s a bit of a baby
