The way actualization works needs to have some established rules behind it, since as it stands there are possibly two components laid out, one established and one somewhat assumed but left unsaid. You said for sure that learning player things from players is required, presumably continued study over a long period. although this alone would apply to anyone from Hop Pop to The Core. Grime, Tritonio, Valeriana, Andrias probably, Gary. The odds of half the population of Wartwood becoming Players exponentially as time passes and the concentration of Hermits increases. At the very least, this includes the IT gals, Dr. Jan, and Terry. At some extreme end, this could mean the US Military starts training unaging magic super soldiers.

But the second component limits this a good amount. It's kind of implied that a genuine, deep, probably pointedly positive, connection to a player is required for actualization. This cuts the numbers down quite a bit, we likely won't get a missive influx of super powered side characters, no matter how hilarious as that image is and how much it may fit Wartwood's canonical status of army of cryptid country bumpkins, as well as removing Gary, The Military, and The Core for sure. The IT gals come down to how ride or die Xisuma is to them, but they may not have long enough for it to set in. The same applies to the other earth squad characters.

I have only really thought of one more setting rule but I may also have a potential narrative rule.

The first setting rule would state that only 'mature' Players can transmit their power. Player Maturity takes a long ass time. I'm leaving it up to you but I was considering anywhere between a lifetime and their first few centuries. this avoids both the plot hole of why Players aren't exponential in number and by extension the retconning of the backstory of this setting's Amphibia.

The narrative rule, that I will only be proposing, is one I call 'The Hop Pop Standard.' It is a rule that, for the purposes of maintaining thematic coherency with Amphibia and imposing a hard limit on where the line for who becomes a player in-story. This rule may need to be reevaluated later down the line depending on how the AU develops because if things change it has a high chance to stop functioning.

Simply, this rule would state that Actualization would have to maintain rules and caveats that insure that Hop Pop becoming a Player would be breaking the established world building. More broadly, a line should be drawn to prevent parental figures of Amphibia's main cast members from becoming players, for the purpose of keeping the rules strict enough that the number of characters capable of Actualization is appropriately small, as well as keeping a tangibly permanent reflection of Amphibia's themes present in-story.

As interesting as exploring Andrias eventually achieving a true form of immortality as a reward for his redemption and recompense would be, succeeding with kindness where his ancestors failed with cruelty, I'm willing to give it up if doing so ended up giving precedent for an ever expanding list of characters becoming Players. He himself is not a parental figure for any of the girls but allowing him in may bring up questions of why him and not people closer to the girls.

I am opposed to blocking Ivy from eventually Actualizing, mostly for Sprig related reasons, but that does mean she needs a bonded hermit, and this ask is already long so I'll put my nomination in another ask.

(Sorry for the wait, but I wanted to be in the right mindset first. :D)

I don't know for sure that player-to-player knowledge is an absolute requirement of actualisation, but its for sure one of the most common components. And - more importantly - its likely the only common component available for prospective players in our AU.

The need for player "maturity" - I'd say it takes a human lifetime on average, but varies based on a player coming into their own - helps keep the numbers down. Retcon averted.

It makes sense a "newborn" player lacks the experience to help another on their way.

As you say, though, this could apply to most characters if that was all it took, & there'd be exponential growth with how populous Amphibia & Earth are. Also, villains - from as of-the-week as Gary to as terrifying as the Core - aren't folks you want acquiring immortal power just by doing the reading of False's mind.

There's got to be more to it.

But that's where the inferred 2nd component of at least this method (as noted, there are others - the multiverse is big) comes in: the positive relationship. It wasn't something I'd consciously decided, but it does make sense that you don't attune to a new existence just by understanding the theory. It takes deep bonds with those already of that ilk.

Ivy has Joe. Maddie has Cub. Polly has Cleo.

Sprig has Grian/Stress/Ren/Doc.

Ally & Jess might have Xisuma (X likes them but this would be based on how much he interacts with the IT Gals post-Invasion).

Marcy has Mumbo.

Sasha has Scar.

And Anne has False.

So it tracks. And while the lack of a superpowered Wartwood resistance is a missed glory, I think its worth it to deprive the villain side of things - and Mr. X, as much as I love him - of easy power.

Besides, have you seen Wartwood? They're already OP as is!

And the 'Hop Pop Standard' works as a starting baseline for eligibilty, even if we have to change it later. It wouldn't feel right for his character for Hop Pop to be a "Player", so using him as a benchmark for someone not qualifying to keep numbers down & Amphibia's themes intact is sensible.

For him - & other primary parental figures, as mentioned - I imagine its not because he lacks the bonds, but more because he's fine where he is in his life & chooses not to advance despite his intelligence.

And yeah, even accepting his eventual redemption, I don't see Andrias getting actualisation as a karmic reward. I wouldn't give him this even if the rules were more relaxed, as it feels more in his nature to shy away from such ideas now he's free of his family burden.

If Hop Pop isn't going to wake up one morning with a suddenly there inventory full of light grey glass, neither is the former King.

“What good are words when a smile says it all?”

Gary “Roach” Sanderson, 16 years old, he/she pronouns. He takes the place of Marcy Wu in this AU!

She got transported to Newtopia when the music box was activated. He quickly became fast friends with King Andrias and Lady Olivia, the latter of which took her in as a sort of son.

She swiftly rose the ranks to Chief Ranger of the Newtopian guard.

He was the one who originally found the music box, and decided to use it so her 'friends' and him could always be together, as her parents were moving back to the Netherlands and taking him with. She was afraid he'd lose contact with Soap and Ghost, and they wouldn't be friends anymore.

Her dog tags are also in her pocket!

Anyone else remember the Club Penguin specials on TV? Gary The Gadget Guy is voiced by Wallace Shawn, the actor who played that one guy in the princess bride and was Humphrey in Amphibia. Also he was I think the principal or some sort of scientist in Young Sheldon

Wait, what about the other mind-controlling mushroom? The Root of Evil set it up by revealing Gary wasn’t the mushroom whose spores were being used to brainwash the animals, and those spores continued to be relevant in All In, as a way to control the Herons that ate Sprig and Polly’s parents!

It feels weird to set up the return of Gary only to reveal this wasn’t connected to him at all but another mushroom, set up him meeting that mushroom and not being the only one of his kind, only to... Not follow up. Seems like something we could’ve had Yunnan and Olivia deal with in All In, or Sasha and Grime briefly get it out of the way as another part of Sasha’s symbolic rejection of control.

I've been seeing a lot of people saying something about this Darrel person regarding Amphibia, but what did he do wrong excatly? Sorry I just don't know what he did that made people mad

He's the Chris Thorndyke of the Amphibia Fandom who gained a level of popularity for his lazily written self insert.

- Steals traits from canon characters to suit his OCs (the salamanders are basically Hop Pop and Sprig)

- Awkwardly shoves himself into every little scene which in turn makes his self insert comes off as extremely unoriginal (pick one scene? Any scene and you bet Darrel shoves himself into it)

- His selfship with Anne (and Sasha bc of course; he is her exBF) is done poorly. Tbh he only exists to be their love interest. Yes even his surname Loyalitat is an obvious (and lazy) way of showing that love interest role (he's so LOYAL get it?)

- Which is turn only inhibits his self insert from being an actual character in his own right. So he relies on copying canon to fill in the blanks

- Leeches off plot important elements ESPECIALLY Anne's big moments like in this scene

There's nothing wrong with Darrel getting his power up (or a fourth gem in general. The problem is he shoehorned himself into Anne's big scene, almost as if she can't do anything on her own. He even becomes a frog expert like her at the end showing his lack of originality.

The kicker: real life Darrel is allegedly 30 years old. Yeah I know the trio are fictional but it's still weird as hell and their "chemistry" is woefully underwritten and only really benefits him.

The concept of a fourth human/Calamity Hero and a mage society isn't bad. It's a great concept! But Darrel wastes it by forced romance and stealing traits from canon. I have seen so much better done OCs and self inserts that nearly don't get the attention they deserve as this obnoxious Gary Stu.

Bonus//blasphemy: even went far to shoehorn himself into the Bible

Has anyone ever seen an Amphibia character get past Round 2 of a tournament? I just want to know because it always seems like Round 2 is where they always die.

When Apothecary Gary reveals “his true, beautiful self”…

APOTHECARY GARY: Behold! My true, beautiful self.

MARCY: (gasps) Mushroom Man!
