So vidahara izuku au huh . . . 👀 (shakes your hand in mha to star rail pipe line.)

Yessss

So I already explained stuff about Izuku, though it is in his banishment that he meets friends; people he can call his family.

There's January 11th - a relatively quiet boy who was found frozen in a block of six-phased ice. He has no memories of who he is and, despite finding a pendant on his person with the name "Shoto" on it, he doesn't feel any connection to the name.

Mina Ashido - The newest member of the family with a bright personality and natural curiosity, though sometimes she finds joy in digging through trashcans. Somehow she is able to survive with a Stellaron embedded into her and also has a connection to the Stellaron Hunters.

Nana Shimura - The one who repaired the Astral Express and an Emanator of the Trailblaze, she is the one who initially brought everyone onto the Astral Express. Her desire is to see every last planet in the universe, and to also eventually bring the Astral Express back to its home. But it is a long journey, one she knows will be incredibly lonely in the end, and that's why she cherishes every last moment made.

Toshinori Yagi - The first passenger of the Express, outside of Nana, he was initially shocked when he saw her alive and much younger than him. He knew a time when she was older than him, and died in a tragedy that he could not prevent. While he is happy that this version of his mentor is alive and well, he still misses the days when she would teach him. Though now it seems the roles have reversed...

Did I fever dream that I had a Vidyadhara/HSR AU?

I could have sworn I posted about it here, but I need to find the post again.....

[boss-the-goofball]

MINA AS THE TRAILBLAZER IS SO PERFECT YES!!! let the alien queen have a space adventure! Nana has such Himiko vibes (aka mom vibes) and Shoto and Toshinori round out the group so perfectly.

also izuku being afos next incantation is very funny.

- same anon from earlier thank you so much for replying I love your ideas! I may just have to make some awful fanart be warned 💫

Ironically it was trying to figure out who would fit nicely in a pseudo-March 7th role that I came to Mina as the Trailblazer; when @chaosphoniex here tried to suggest Mina for March when I was already starting to settle on Shoto

So I decided to let Mina have the Trailblazer role

I actually had to dig a little into HI3rd because I knew there was the very likely speculation that Welt in HSR is the same Welt from HI3rd and wanted to verify something with Himeko- and that's what sold me to put Nana in that role with Old Man Yagi in the Welt role because Welt is basically the dad for everyone; including Himeko.

Izuku was where I first drafted this because I knew I wanted to have him be a Vidyadhara, however I did not want to have Yoichi as his past life because a lot of people like to make Izuku into some kind of reincarnation of Yoichi or someone else important to AfO in some fashion.

Plus I wanted to have another AU where AfO is perma-dead and not coming back lol

[boss-the-goofball]

Hee hee

So there's the Vidyadharas in Honkai Star Rail, which are Scions of Long who was the Aeon of Permanence (and then Long died)

One thing about Vidyadharas is that they go through a self-reincarnation cycle where after a certain amount of time (typically 6 or 7 centuries) they get reborn with no memories of their past lives

In this particular AU, the process of self-reincarnation can be made to happen early- typically as a punishment for criminals who committed high treason.

This is what happened to All for One While his next incarnation was imprisoned for a number of years before banished, never to return.

All for One is gone for good, never to return And his next incarnation will make sure it stays that way.

So Honkai Star Rail gave me an excellent idea

[boss-the-goofball]

As the Archivist on the Astral Express, Izuku has found comfort on the Path of the Trailblaze after so many years running and hiding from a past that he would rather not even think about. The man with crazed eyes always chasing him, using a name that’s completely meaningless to him, still haunts him even after he has finally found peace on the Express with Miss Nana, Mr. Yagi, January 11th, and Mina. Perhaps there will come a time when he can no longer run.

The Izuku-centric Vignette from the Star Rail AU is up!

Poll for the next vignette will be up momentarily

[boss-the-goofball]

Decided

Eri is going to be a Vidyadhara High Elder who lost one of her horns - she's on the path of Abundance and will be a Quantum type character

meanwhile the resident bastard Overhaul is a Foxian and a member of the Genius Society - even if he has drawn Nous's gaze, he is still on the path of Destruction and will be a Lightning type character

also there's Yoichi who is a general of a Xianzhou Ship (I haven't decided if he will just be a Xianzhou Native or a Vidyadhara) but he's on the path of Harmony and will be an Ice type character

so y'all remember that BNHA/HSR AU I made a while ago?

I have one very important question irt Eri-

Human girl, Foxian girl, or Vidyadhara High Elder?

[boss-the-goofball]

Mina: Lightning - Destruction | Quantum - Harmony Izuku: Wind - Erudition | Imaginary - Hunt Shoto: Ice - Nihility | Fire - Abundance

Nana: Imaginary - Abundance Toshinori: Physical - Preservation

This is how that will go; so have a funny thing of Shoto screaming about how his fire heals people

Well hey

Guess this means, for the Vidyadhara Izuku AU (HSR AU)

Mina gets stabbed

And then she gets better with a kickass upgrade
