#winx club trix asks

[trashcankitty12]

What similarities do the Trix share with the ancestral witches (both in appearance and personality)? Do the Trix look like their ancestors when they were younger? Also are you going to write about Sapphire in your upcoming story and if you do, does she share any similarities with her ancestor?

I'm not sure for the canon series of events, so I'm only going to answer as far as "my" version of canon.

Under cut because this is loooong.

Belladonna-Icy:

As far as similarities go, Icy could be a dead ringer for Belladonna (as the saying goes). When alive, Belladonna was considered a terrifying sort of beautiful, with ice-white hair and piercing blue eyes.

Icy definitely has the hair and the eyes. Unlike Belladonna though, her face shape is more like her mother's side of the family, and her height is more from her mother's side as well. (Belladonna was a dangerous but petite woman.)

As far as clothing style goes, Icy dresses a bit more 'provocative' than what Belladonna did. (Considering Belladonna is from a time when women typically wore long dresses and robes and many, many layers.) However Icy does have Belladonna's love for capes/crowned back cloaks.

They also share their core magic as Ice Magic. Icy hasn't quite reached the level Belladonna reached yet, but she's still young.

Personality wise, they are extremely similar. Belladonna was an ambitious witch who wanted to rule over all, and as we've seen, Icy is the same way. Ambitious, a natural leader.

She's also cruel and cunning like Belladonna was, willing to cut down anyone in her path.

However, she's a bit more emotional than Belladonna was. Yes, Belladonna had her moments of 'avalanche causing/blizzard bringing/hail storm' temper tantrums, but they were far and few between. (She tended to be more quiet in her anger, but no less dangerous. The tantrums only happened with major setbacks... Like Griffin escaping them alive and when they realized they may not survive the fight on Domino.)

Icy, on the other hand, has a tendency to lose her cool and get overwhelmed with her anger, flash freezing everyone nearby.

Icy also is more likely to allow herself moments of joy and enjoyment, whereas Belladonna was definitely not much for 'resting and relaxing'. (Such frivolous activities wouldn't help their cause at all.)

And unlike Belladonna, Icy has allowed herself to have genuine feelings for others outside of her 'sisters'. Its only happened a time or two, but Icy has felt her little heart flutter once in a while. (Darko was a great guy... But there was too much going on around them.)

She and Belladonna are both selfish and have great egos/inflated senses of grandeur.

Belladonna was willing to steal both forms of the Dragon Fire and all powerful magic in the realms for herself and her sisters so they could rule the Magical Dimension by ushering in a "New Era of Darkness", thinking it was her calling to create more for her life. Of course her methods weren't 'friendly' and it started a whole war. (And centuries of building up a Cult disguised as a Coven.)

As for the selfish part of her plans, she tended to hoard more of the magic for herself, as she was 'the eldest'. She also tended to pick the strongest members for her personal Inner Circle.

Icy is much the same way, willing to toss her sisters under the bus if it means she gets the prize at the end. And she sees herself as becoming the next Grand Mistress of the new generation of Coven members, the one to usher in the New Era.

Lysslis-Darcy:

(I'm using the version of Lysslis' name that was present when I first started WINX, I have no idea when they changed it or if it was just an error in translation.)

Physically speaking, Darcy and Lysslis do look alike. Same golden eyes, same dark hair kept nice and long. About the same body shape (when Lysslis was alive and young that is). However Darcy's face shape is more like her mother's side of the family.

Like Lysslis, Darcy is also considered the more alluring of the trio, often using her sexuality and her looks to get what's needed. (Along with a dose of hypnosis/mind control magic for those who are a little more difficult.)

Clothing style wise, Darcy does share some fashion traits with Lysslis; wearing clothing that would be considered easy to move in and airy while also 'inviting'. (Though the most Darcy ever looked like her ancestor was when she wore that disguise against Jared.)

Darcy is admittedly taller than her ancestor, but not by much.

Magically, Darcy is incredibly similar to Lysslis, however she doesn't quite use her full potential like she should.

Lysslis was known for her grand illusions, her mind manipulations, her control over the very shadows within souls. And once her powers grew, she could even bring in spirits and ghosts to do her bidding, as well as psychically and psychologically torture her opponents.

Darcy could, in theory, do all of this. In fact, she has done it before. Often. But she's not into capturing and tormenting her opponents or creating 'sleeper agents' like her ancestor. Nor is she interested in twisting someone's mind so badly they kill themselves.

Basically, she's just not into it. She doesn't mind fucking with people's minds or using her powers to get what she wants (free stuff, people not to question why she's somewhere she shouldn't be, etc.), and she's all for defending herself however she has too. But to actively seek out people to psychologically traumatize isn't her thing. Honestly, it's too much work and not enough reward if it's not personal enough.

She also doesn't summon creatures as much as Lysslis did for her dirty work. It's a lot of power to summon things and she just doesn't want to waste power she may need for a direct fight than summon creatures she may not need.)

Personality wise; Darcy is bit lazier than Lysslis is. The goal for her isn't 'realm wide domination', though she's okay with helping her sister reach that goal. She's just in it for the fun and chaos it brings.

Ruling, to her is fun, in theory, but it's not a deep-rooted need. But in reality, she'd rather be the one planning or plotting. Studying. Researching. (Even if she gets called a nerd in the process.) But hey, what are sisters for if not helping each other rule the entire Magical Dimension?

She's actually a little bit like Lysslis that way. Researching and studying on magic and it's effects were something Lysslis took great pride in. (Though her experiments tended to be more... Extreme than Darcy's.)

Like Lysslis, Darcy is drawn to animals and manages to create strong bonds with the creatures she meets. However, unlike Lysslis, Darcy actually has some feeling toward the animals she brings in, whereas they were a means to an end for Lysslis.

Also like Lysslis, Darcy has a bit of a romantic sense about her. She enjoys the idea of dating and sex and being close to people. Granted, she also likes to toy with them, but there's still some genuine feeling there... Some... (Riven.)

But she's loyal to her sisters and their cause and she refuses to let herself become too sidetracked when it comes to their mission. (Lysslis was loyal to her sisters too, but she was also prone to have her part of the Coven members go do missions for her and her alone that tended to... Blow up. Darcy seldom ever does such things.)

Where Lysslis wouldn't hesitate to call Tharma and Belladonna, Darcy tends to follow her sisters' lead until it goes poorly. (Though she will make an effort to point out flaws or ways things could go wrong. It's why Icy comes to her for planning purposes.)

Like Lysslis, Darcy is one who will search out those who have wronged her and exact her revenge. (Unlike Lysslis, her success rate isn't the best considering her main targets are the Winx and they're still happily prancing about.)

Tharma-Stormy

Like Tharma, Stormy has the curled/kind of frizzy storm cloud hair. She's also got Tharma's face shape. Her eye color, however, is the same as her father's side.

She's smaller than Tharma is, actually. Her body shape is more like her father's side as well. (She has freckles like Tharma though! And is great at doing the same wild smile she does.)

Clothing wise, Stormy is a bit more provocative than Tharma was in her youth. Tharma was more into robes and anything loose and flowy, but modest in her wear.

Stormy prefers clothes she can move in and look great in. So... Major differences. (Of course, that's also because of differences from the times they're from.)

Power wise, Stormy is definitely Tharma's descendant. Tharma could create massive thunderstorms, devastating tornadoes, ravaging tsunamis, blinding blizzards, and horrific lightning storms. Stormy is much the same way.

And just like Tharma, the more damage she does, the more excited she becomes. She loves wrecking havoc and causing mayhem. Loves the pain she can cause by localizing her powers.

(Unlike Tharma, she's not quite as refined with her skills yet. But give her time.)

Personality wise, she's even more like Tharma. In fact, out of the Trix sisters and their Ancestors, Tharma and Stormy are the most alike.

She's sadistic, cruel, temperamental, and quick to fight. Tharma was just like that. Sadistic in her torture, cruel in her actions, and quick to fight whenever she felt slighted, even with her own sisters.

Like Tharma, she's also quick to get into physical fights. (And is pretty decent at physical fights as well, considering she enjoys using her magic any chance she gets.)

Tharma wasn't much for romance in her day, though she did enjoy 'having fun' from time to time. (Though how long any of her 'partners' lived varied...) Stormy... Much like that.

Stormy doesn't care for romance. She sees it as an unnecessary headache and just boring. As for sex, she's not really into it either. Can it be fun? Sure. Is it necessary? No.

Unlike Tharma, Stormy can find ways of enjoying herself that don't necessarily regard harming people or killing them. Like dancing or gaming, or even silly little makeover nights with her sisters.

Stormy tends to be a bit more hostile than Tharma was, as she's more willing to reject outsiders into her and her sisters' bubbles, whereas Tharma was fine with having new people to... "Teach".

The Case For Sapphire:

She's going to make an appearance, but it's not going to be too major. It's going to be a moment though.

Sapphire has no idea that Icy is her biological sister, nor do their parents remember having Icy. (My tie-ins thing on AO3 will tell you why. But basically, Lysslis had a vision of them losing the war and had their three youngest and most magically in-sync descendants would be found and raised to be their new puppets. So Darcy, Icy, and Stormy were essentially baby-napped and raised by hidden/underground Coven members to be 'triplet sisters' and fly under the radar. Which is why Griffin didn't think anything too odd of them despite recognizing their heritage.)

But she does have some distant similarities with Belladonna, though thanks to her raising, she's not quite like Icy.

Sapphire has the icy white hair and pale blue eyes that her sister and ancestor do. She also has powers over ice and snow. However, unlike Icy, she's not a witch... She's a fairy. Which has honestly blown the minds of her people. Though she's not completely surprised. Her mother's family tree does have light magic in there.

As the daughter of the Governor of Dyamond, she is polite and well-behaved around others. She's also quiet, a bit reserved.

But don't let that fool you; she does have a slight temper, one that could rival her sister's. It just takes a lot to get her there as she's normally quite a jolly young woman.

(I hope this answers your questions! Sorry it took so long, I had to plan this out.)

Q: What would you change in your life, if you had a chance?

Context for the 2 first frames

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO i spent almost a whole month drawing this. i'm never doing anything like this ever again. This is the biggest comic ever i did in (almost) full skill

THIE IRONY OF THIS is that Icy thinking one thing, but the opposite happens.

basically this is a short summary of an AU that would've been an over 200 pages comic otherwise

funny enough that right after i finished this, my headcanons for Stormy changed few times anw she wouldn't react like this with my new headcanons but oh well. This is just imagination tho.

[ghostsprobably]

I like to think that the gradiants in witches hands and their eye make up are like a symbol of how much problematic history they have,with the trix,the ancestrals and Valtor,how much they are seem as bad,evil,how much they are seem with prejudice,but still,they embrace,because that's who they are

yesss thats how i see it too!!

tho while the makeup is for sure a cultural thing, the color on their hands is the consequence of using witchcraft, and isnt actually put their consciously!

fairies get beautiful sparkly wings with their magic (which of course had positive effects on how theyre perceived) because their magic is coming from within themselves

but witches harness power from elsewhere, and by the time a witch is adept enough to transform magically, the stains appear on their hands. so like, a new, less powerful witch wont have the gradients, like lucy at first, but the trix and griffin do because they are much more adept and draw much more power. its like, a progression.

this has a negative impact on how they are perceived bc a lot of people view it as evidence of "corruption"

i hope that makes sense!

[magixfairyix]

Kind of wish I had kids right about now so I could show them the Winx Club reboot.

WAIT OH FUCK.

Smaller children are going to watch the Winx Reboot probably! And by the end of next Halloween, someone will FINALLY recognize my Darcy cosplay!

Cause ofc small children don't know Winx. Last Halloween was a fail, so hopefully while handing out candy one child has class.

[darlenicy]

How do you like this plot where Icy specifically uses magic on Darcy to make her stop loving Riven?

tbh I always thought she actually did when I was a kid. In that scene where Riven is betrayed by the Trix, Icy's eyes glow red for a moment and right after, Darcy rises behind Riven and attacks him.

I can see it in general. Icy only cares for the three of them, and it's obvious that Riven is a threat to their coven. So yeah, I can totally see Icy trying to control Darcy. Which would be kinda hard, tho, because even though Icy is a master in dark magic....Darcy is the queen of illusions and darkness and an expert messing with the mind of others. So I think it would be super hard to get in Darcy's head.

On the other hand, Darcy is an overthinker and Icy surely could influence her thinking with little well set comments and taunts. And yes, I think this way Icy could make Darcy doubt her relationship.

[devilheartsblog]

Part of me wants to write a fic of Gantlos and Icy beating the shit out of each other with their powers and at the end Gantlos is like “God you’re so fucking hot”

[no-white-dress]

You can blame this on a select few people

(It is not canon to Even a Witch but it amuses me)

[solariaswitch]

i sooo agree about the icy backstory! i HATED the retcon, and the trix aren't sisters anymore?

I dislike Icy's S8 backstory, but I actually don't consider it a retcon. I know this is yet another topic that divides the fandom but I never took the Trix for being biological/blood sisters.

I think it depends a lot on which dub you watched, but I never considered them bio sisters, but rather sisters in a coven way. Covens of witches always refer to each other as sisters even if they aren't really. And there are some things about them being bio sisters the just wouldn't really make sense, for example the scene in S3 where they take a swim in the weeping-willow pond and come back as kids, and they don't recognise each other. Icy even tells Darcy "Your hair used to look like that!?" and Darcy says "Whatever, you look like a pixie!" or something lol.

Besides the coven thing, I think they call each other sisters because they are descended from Belladonna, Lysslis and Tharma who were indeed sisters. If each trix is a descendant of a singular sister, then it's impossible for them to be triplets/biological full siblings. But you know, through them they're still blood relatives in some way.

Anyway, I think this is one of those things that the creators kinda didn't have figured out themselves so they just sorta... left it up for interpretation.

[darkpoisonouslove]

Hc (and something I wish would've actually happen): During that scene in 3x23 where Griffin, Saladin and Faragonda fight eachother Griffin realized at some point that something's was off bc she just knew that Valtors powers felt diffrent in that moment. Like she still recognized his powers but she knew in a real fight with him it would be diffrent. So she stopped attacking and instead just defended herself bc she knew how he works and there could be the chance that all of this is a twisted illusion and that Saladin and Faragonda still could be there.

That's always bugged me! Forget knowing Valtor's magic! The idea that Griffin, Saladin and Faragonda wouldn't recognize each other's magic is absolutely mindboggling! They've known each other for literal decades and have fought a war together!!! There's no way they wouldn't realize they're fighting each other! But once again, plot is prioritized over having character situations that make sense (because otherwise the Winx wouldn't have gotten to fight Valtor with the Water Stars and had the shocking revelation that Valtor has trapped Bloom's parents in his body that's... debunked by the end of the next episode... by the Ancestral Witches... who are beings of pure evil and have zero reason to tell the truth to the daughter of their sworn enemies... I give up; the writing for this show is atrocious!!!!)

Anyway, my idea (haha, RIP my rewrite that was supposed to include this) was that Valtor sends the Trix in his place to fight Griffin, Saladin and Faragonda after he gives them some magic to help emulate his own and because they used to have the Dragon Fire, small sparks of which have remained inside them since it can never be extinguished. So Griffin ends up fighting Darcy and she still figures out the deception! Because YES, she fucking knows him and his magic! That is to say, I completely agree with your headcanon! (And seriously, he should have used the Trix! This is a perfect three-on-three battle opportunity and could have brought us back to the time when the Trix were an actual threat!)

Darcy's character's biggest fear?

Ooohhhh this is a good one. I think a lack of control for sure. A lot of her actions are about control of the mind and body.

I think being spontaneous scares the **** out of her. She would be really scared to have it “all crumble” but really that would mean letting go of a little bit of perfectionism. Going with the flow, having another character have power over her and not being in control of her thoughts and feelings even for a second terrifies her.

[wtfastaroth]

@darlenicy sorry, Tumblr posted my drafts again (???? Sometimes this happens) and i lost your ask

But here's the info:

Lilith D'arcy

In short, she is Darcy's cousin and studied in Cloud Tower with the trix (in the same classroom).

She is very introverted, the "yuck people" type, she usually speaks in dry and sometimes harsh tones (even without her intention).

She is half Nophurian and half Zenithian (and started living in Zenith after the installation of the interplanetary blockades)

Lilith's powers: She is the "witch of the constellations" The essence of her magic comes from the stars and cosmos in general. She is also a seer, she's able to see glimpses of the future, she isn't able to control when this type of vision will come tho, but usually they come once a week.

I created her along with several other characters right at the beginning of the development of my rewrite, as I always found it strange that we didn't have much focus on what the witches' dynamics were like inside Cloud Tower, so I created these characters to be from the same class, friends or ex love interests of the trix (school drama,i love).

Apart from the trix, there are two more groups of informal covens in CT that are more popular, a group of 5 witches in third year (irrelevant) and the Sirens, formed by Lilith, Sophie and Abigail. While Darcy and Stormy get along well with them, Icy HATES Sophie with all her might, so she doesn't interact with them.

I think this explains a little bit of who she is without giving away too many spoilers.

And, here some character sheets i did for her that i didn't post here (plus her moodboard)

I hope these notes aren't too confusing, I just put together all the information I had (At least everything you can know for now)

[elsa-fogen]

You've been warned. Winx posting starts now.

Okay so i talked earlier about ask groups... i went to one and this is my welcoming art for it

I decided to put her in prison, because it was the only place where i could make her answer some question without being too out of character.

Plus i'm denying existance of everything past season 4 and second film. She's not some princess, she doesn't have some cursed sibling or whatever. And no "fish love", not on my watch! So yeah, she's here after the second film.

I GUESS you can ask questions too, but i can't promise i'll answer everything, only something that would be interesting and help me to show my headcanons about her. Also, if you know russian, you can leave your questions here as well.

The answers will have a storyline i guess. Kinda. I've made few answers already, i'll post them here too, but later.

On unrelated note, for some reason I feel like there's not enough Icy enjoyers over here. It's fine, means more for me HEHEHEE. You DON'T understand, right now i'm having a PEAK of the hyperfixation - which means that i'm literally screaming when i look at her.

On TOTALLY unrelated note, i really need to continue my hazbin Good Intention AU comic... really...

almost posted it with hazbin tags, used to it so much lol

[ghostsprobably]

griffin is in a different form than the trix?

kind of! so like

witches don't really have forms like fairies do

the trix are special in that they do have multiple looks because of the powers they receive from doing their shenanigans, but most witches just change their form to suit their tastes

the difference is that it isnt easy for witches to transform magically so amatures will have physical costumes they change into for class

[charmixpower]

From best to worst individually, how good are the Trix at commanding, channeling and harmonising?

Thank you for the lore questions!! Fun fact I'm making a lore bible with now with some major rewrites and somethings that are exactly the same, and that will be out... Before next year XD

The notes are about 7,000 words right now and I can say with complete certainty that it will be over 10,000 by the time I'm done XD I've already broken it down by part to make it easier to explain. Focused, thriving, moisturized, in my lane, ect ect. Excited for that, I'll rewrite this when I finish my lore

Icy: Commanding, Harmonizing, Channeling

Icy is a straight up prodigy at commanding magic. She uses cold air and water in the air to make her ice and throw it at people. That takes an insane amount of control!! Stormy is also really good at it, making lighting is hard, but she gets to start with air and wind being already present. Icy has to MacGyver that shit. Icy is theeee baddest bitch. As for harmonizing if she had literally any other domain she'd suck massive dick at it, I mean she'd be TERRIBLE. Icy just really REALLY vibes with ice in particular, both physically and metaphorically, making it extremely easy for her to harmonize with ice/cold. She kinda views the cold as an extension of herself, so it's almost second nature to her. Adding Bloom's power to her massively fucked up her ability to do that btw bc there was something foreign was in her. As for channeling magic she's still really good at it! Remember in s2 where she nearly killed Sky in RF by, I think it's implied that she kinda internally freezes him??? Yeah but she's good at that too. It requires more thought than the first two that she's a genius in and she can do by instinct but that only makes a difference of a couple seconds. Icy is EXTREMELY good at magic

Stormy: Harmonizing, Commanding, Channeling

It's really funny to say Stormy "chaos reigns" is good at harmonizing but that's exactly why she's good at it. Baby girl IS the storms. She's like the concept lightning tornados were a person, and said storm magic reacts to her back like that. They GET each other. Relating to that, Stormy is obviously far less controlled about her magic. Stormy intuits her magic, the only thing she's really intentionally controlling is her lighting bolts, otherwise she's just pulling at the magic and letting it do what it wants while pointing it in the direction of whatever she wants dead. On that note, channeling, channeling a large wild source of magic into a little box is literally the worst thing in the world for Stormy. She sucks ass at it. Like. Barely passing her requirements sucks at it. She's all like, fuck OFF storms are not meant to be contained in tiny little magic stones, immediately die about it. And then the teacher tells her to stop being insubordinate and just do the assignment

Darcy: Channeling, Commanding, Harmonizing

I feel like Darcy is at her best in combat when she's not a powerhouse. Icy and Stormy are already power houses, we don't need all three of them to be. Darcy's commanding and channeling magic are at the same level. She's not Icy levels of good at either but still extremely good. She uses her commanding magic to throw things around and attack from multiple directions and basically uses it to influence her environment physically, and channeling magic to use things inner darkness to cause havoc. She deserves a unique fighting style her magic is so cool. As for harmonizing. You remember in s1 where she pretended to be Stella and was SO TERRIBLE AT IT??? Remember in s2 when only Icy was any good at pretending to be a normal CT witch??? Darcy is good with physical darkness, she's great with messing with internal darkness, she's TERRIBLE at the trickster parts of darkness. Like. Blowing up Riven and gaslighting him into falling in love with her wasn't even HER idea, IT WAS ICYS!! She sucks at harmonizing, she's much better at it than Stormy is at channeling, she can mostly do it but it's not very good. It's passable. High C, low B grade

[darlenicy]

Probably Darcy and Icy artificially grew their hair unnaturally long. Because they think it is very beautiful. They and Lucy made her hair that long when they changed her appearance so that she would take part in a beauty contest. But this is inconvenient, and hardly beautiful in the case of Darcy with her hair color. As they showed her in childhood, she looked good with a bob, probably all the influence of Icy’s tastes. In general, the creators of Winx seem to impose on the viewer that long hair is beautiful, for some reason changing the design of the Muse and depriving her of individuality.

"hardly beautiful in the case of Darcy with her hair colour"? Excuse me?? Every inch of Darcy is gorgeous.

The long hair is simply a matter of design. I doubt the writers had anything deep behind it in mind. Icy having an influence on Darcy's (beautiful, perfect, gorgeous) long hair is unlikely. But they surely wanted to make Musa look more appealing with giving her long hair. It looks good of course, but it's not Musa anymore.
