Tanza lore drop hell yea

Tanza is the name of my main headworld, it's a fantasy/sci-fi mix with two main races of people the Drakin and the Humans, aside from them there are also the Spirits and Demons, not necesssaily supernatural beings since their existence is very real, with demons often attacking mortal settlements, and while spirits are unable to interact directly to the realm due to limitations, they have granted mortals the skills needed to defend themselves. The main magical energy source is called Neautra and it works like Mana/Aether in classic rpgs, its the source of life/essence of the soul/magic what gives.

Main Locations

Tanza only has two main continents, a large land mass that irl would be equivalent to the whole of Eurasia + few small islands, called Yiver and a smaller one equivalent to Australia that known as Draki.

In Yiver is located the Iseriath Empire, the most powerful nation, it controls the entirety of Yiver, due to its enourmous size, its divided in many sub-divisions that are semi-autonomous. The capital Izeriath City is located at the very center of the Empire. It has been ruled by the Izeriath Imperial Family since its founding 10000 years ago, the current ruler being Emperor Eidon XI. The majority of the empire population are Humans. People from the Empire are called Izerianthi.

Draki unlike Yiver doesnt have one government, instead its filled with many Drakin clans all competing for control. In their past the Arigon clan has managed to consolidate the continent into one unified kingdom but it did not lasted for long. Some clans have closer relationships with the Empire than others. Drakins are the main workforce behind the Demon Hunters, with the metal needed to produce the special weaponry and armor for killing demons being found only in Draki.

Demons and Spirits

Demons and Spirits shape the course of history in Tanza. With the creations of Demons by the God Akila altering the very fabric of the universe. Demons unlike spirits are not bound to their realm of origin, and can transverse between planes with no consequences. They are creatures of pure Neautra but do not posess cores to stabilize it and thus must always consume more to maintain their form, hence their destructive nature. While Spirits are also beings of pure neautra, they have a solid core that stabilizes them and works basicly producing and recycling its own energy constantly forever. Spirits are meant to be guardians of the mortal realm, against what not even they themselves remeber. Whatever enemy they were supposed to protect the mortals against is no longuer a treat, and so Spirits have become...unruly, trying to interact with the mortal realm, often causing as much trouble as demons.

The Gods

This Tanza is not the first of its iteration, The Archivist recalls infinite worlds before this one, an ancient experiment created by the first gods, with the objective of creating the Perfect World, but gods are finite in their lifespan as well, and the experiment must go on. So after each iteration of the Tanza experiment, the most powerful, benevolent souls of this era are tested and three of them will be chosen as the next gods to continue until one world succeds.

Akila, Daimos and Shadlan are the three gods of this current world.

Akila: The eldest, Mother of Demons, The Spider, Being of Fire. Somehow she became a god, maybe in her previous life as a mortal she was indeed a good person but that is long gone. Controling, cruel and egotistical are some of the kinder words used to describe the Mother of Demons. Bound to the demon realm, had her core semi-broken and greatly weakened.

Daimos: The middle one, Traitor, Being of Water, also known as Ryu. When Akila created the first demon, it was with the help of Daimos. He believed that her plan would work and they would come out victorious and change the fabric of the universe. The plan obviously failed, but Shadlan is a benevolent god, and thus spared her sibling. Instead binding his godly form away and ordering him to walk the world as a mortal, and atone for his crimes by helping the people he doomed, once he understood the value of the world he could ascend again. This in turn turned him into a Doomer, he thinks himself way too far gone for any form of redemption and has not bothered to do any major breaktrought in his character development for the past millenia or so.

Shadlan: The Younguest, Patron of the Arcane, Being of Wind, also known as Aria. One god was never meant to rule alone. Shadlan tried to bear the immense burden alone but in the end even she broke and sought to avoid it. She had an immense love for the mortal realm, having died quite young in her previous life, she sought to learn, to see, to experience everything the mortal realm could offer, and so often took undercover trips, breaking the rules she so often tried to enforce, this would end up being her doom, as in one of these visits, while pretending to be a nun, she met a young priest named Rune and fell in love. The two had a pair of twins named Imay and Hiraki, and for a few years Shadlan managed to keep up this double life, but somehow, she was found out and then killed...by a mortal.

With an almost inaudible hum the Vox unit in the back of his metallic cranium sprang to life. The last step of the Maelstrom Protocols had been completed: all public frequencies were vacated, and instead the various squads and groups would use reserved secured lines from now on.

"Dunst here. Bridge has finished preparations. Beginning operation on your order, metal boy.”

[[Objective 1: Assume Emergency Landing Protocols 2-6-1 until target point is reached]], the tech priest declared, habitually ignoring the unprofessional way the Castellan had addressed him, [[Objective 2: activate maximal counter thrust and prepare for close combat // Objective 3: Survive]]

A sound of distortions crackled through the Vox. It took the tech priest 0,02 seconds to realize that Castellan Dunst was laughing – or at least was trying to, before he had fallen into a coughing fit. The old man's stubborn rejection of proper augmentation in the face of his medical condition was enough to drive the tech priest insane on any other day, but for now there were more important things to do.

“Thanks for worrying about us, kid”, Dunst transmitted, “You better make it out alive too! ”

[[Human emotion category “worry”: Null]], Daimos-5 lied, [[Mission Success: inevitable. Logic dictates bridge crew being vital for efficiency of future operations, survival therefore = requested. Prepare to send distance data.]]

Help I made my Tech Priest a tsundere by accident...

Earth Broly (Rather than) AU

(art credit: Shochikubai-ume)

Biography On Planet Vegeta, in Birthing Facility 4, a saiyan baby was born. Considered an anomalous mutant of sorts, with a power level that seemed to fluctuate between roughly 10,000, and 920, much of this was assumed to be malfunctions of the hardware, but one thing was certain.

This child, Broly the son of Paragus, had singlehandedly shattered every record that the saiyans held for Combat Potential.

General saiyan wisdom estimated that a saiyan child would ultimately express 100 times their power as a child during adulthood, assuming a reasonable amount of training and combat to keep them from being stunted. This would mean that, if the saiyans only took into consideration his bottom level, he would have a power level of 92,000. This would make him not only more powerful than every member but one of the Ginyu Force, but essentially only second-only to Freeza himself, except when fighting with a power level of 920,000 as an oozaru.

That was even stronger than Freeza (assuming ignorance to his second form).

Paragus saw the potential for such a child as an asset to the saiyan race, not only as a means of finally throwing themselves free of their servitude, but possibly even proving to Beerus that they had the ability to go further as a species. But alas, the jealousy of King Vegeta was too strong.

The king had planned to send the boy away to a worthless, intolerable, planet named Vampa. Though he was a warrior, Paragus was more clever than to simply swagger into the king’s chambers to demand an explanation. He knew his son’s power, and decided to take things into his own hands, to redirect his son to a more hospitable world, make a scene, and then storm out to head to earth and rescue Broly.

This plan would not go totally according to his script, however, as while Paragus would be successful in changing the ship’s destination, he didn’t account for the king being aware of this, and executing the man on the spot.

Still... Earth wasn’t a particularly valuable planet, and even if it was a world with living targets, its denizens had barely managed to reach its own moon, they wouldn’t be able to send this monster back to him.

When landing on earth, Broly’s ship would crash somewhere in the region near Mount Paozu. Within moments of departing from the pod, Broly would see a full moon and begin to rampage through the wilderness. Though as morning came, Broly would return to the pod from whence he came, after gorging himself on the carcasses of the animals, various dinosaurs and other fauna, using it as a makeshift shelter. It was through the routine, if somewhat broken directions, of the pod that Broly knew his name, though it seemed that the blutz wave projector had been damaged on entry.

Over the following years, the great ape that prowled on full moons, rampaging through the wilds, would become something of a local fairy tale. Though the villages near the area didn’t explicitly believe in the monster, it became rather infrequent for locals to wander out on those nights, just in case.

Thought he was often a nocturnal hunter, due to his time as a mindless beast, Broly would still often act during the days as well, occasionally wandering near settlements, hunting and scavenging for food.

It was thanks to these brief encounters with society, even occasionally meeting the old man who lived among the mountains as well, that Broly was able to learn some ability to communicate, though he was more naturally prone to isolation and never developed a particularly strong relationship with any human.

However, when it came to some animals, Broly would enjoy their presence, particularly a sort of bear that had mutated to have green fur, prompting it to remain alone, even moreso than other bears, which were usually solitary. To the point that it didn’t even have a mate. Spending time with this bear, often watching what it would scavenge and eat, he developed the same habits and hunting patterns as the creature.

With this, Broly and the bear, which he named “Ra” for the noise that it made, became good friends, and over the years, as the saiyan grew, so did its power, and the width of his rampages as an oozaru. And as Broly’s nocturnal rampages became more destructive, so too did the alertness of the region’s residents, such as Gohan, who had fought the great ape on several occasions.

Eventually, though, Ra would be killed, as a result of poaching. Hurt by the death of his only friend, Broly promptly skinned the pelt of Ra, and began to wear it as a silent reminder of his loss. This would also cause Broly to become more aloof and removed from humanity.

As Broly grew towards adolescence, though, eventually his rampages as oozaru became too destructive, eventually resulting in a battle with the warrior Gohan. Broly’s great ape form would kill the old man, and wreak destruction through the land, fulfilling part of his function as a saiyan, essentially killing all humans in the nearby region. Only animals, and ruins would be left in his path, though Broly refused to depart from the region, wishing to simply be alone.

While scavenging the ruins for food on multiple occasions, taking to hunting less often for a time, Broly would eventually discover a glinting orb with four stars in it. Though it served him no purpose in his survival, some sort of compulsion in his (stupid monkey) brain told him to keep it.

Some years later, after Paozu had essentially become a wasteland entirely, a girl named Bulma would wander into the region, searching for the very ball that Broly had.

Initially distrustful of the girl, Broly didn’t want anything to do with her, though after several days of pursuit, coaxing, and offerings of food, the saiyan allowed the human girl near enough to talk to him. With some convincing, Broly would accompany the girl on her journey for the other dragon balls, one that interested him, as he grew older he’d become curious of the area around, and her ability to produce houses with a small device, it would give him an opportunity to travel and exist without the risk of turning into a great ape.

And so would begin Broly’s grand magical adventure to pursue the Dragon Balls.

Key differences and events beyond: -The adventure in which they get captured by Pilaf would likely result in the dragon balls being gained much sooner, but with no wishes that the dragon could effectively grant, Bulma simply wished to return home. -Yamcha and Broly would go on to train with Roshi, eventually being joined by Krillin. --During this training Broly’s tail is removed by Roshi to prevent him from going on rampages, and relying on such a trick in future fights. -The 21st, 22nd, and 23rd Tenkaichi Budokai would be cleanly swept by Broly -Broly’s rivalry with Tenshinhan results less in a purification of Tien’s brutal nature, and more the realization that the strong don’t have to fight dirty, or humiliate and kill opponents. --Broly and Tenshinhan’s duel did not occur in the tournament and was a proposed “duel to the death” following Tien’s desire to kill Broly, after being defeated/humiliated from his point of view, by Yamcha. -Broly did likely destroy the Red Ribbon Army, but likely more in a taking on challengers way, when trying to take from him his 4-star ball. -Broly’s fights would likely be not challenging in the least until possibly the fights against Piccolo-Daimo and Piccolo, the former of which could give him a fight, and the other being able to outwit him repeatedly. -Krillin’s death resulted in Broly’s first use of the Rage form, and subsequent killing of Piccolo-Daimo, who only just narrowly had the time to produce Piccolo. -By the time he’d fought Piccolo Jr., Broly was able to repeatedly access Rage Form and deactivate it to keep a clear head during the battle, though it was still uphill given Piccolo’s greater intelligence. -Broly wouldn’t receive any training by Kami, but would be offered the position of Guardian (he would defer to someone more like Roshi who was suited for the job) -The use of Dragon Balls would become more conserved, as Broly has little interest in using them, and

-The saiyan saga is greatly reduced in scope of battle (largely because Broly has no offspring and I’m not forcing mate(s) into the story) -Broly’s battle with Raditz was a singular affair, with Raditz’s survival being the result of quick thinking, and an offer to bring him to people who are like him -Broly briefly joins the saiyans, though not formally as a member of the Freeza Force he is given similar equipment. -Namek saga essentially doesn’t occur and is instead filled with various space adventures in which Broly seems to just display nonsensical levels of strength beyond that of even his projected 90,200. By the point that Broly is at here, his Combat Power is considered immeasurable by the scouters. -The Saiyans, Nappa, Vegeta, and Raditz, are far more powerful for their presence with Broly and providing him sparring partners. -Ultimate confrontations against Freeza’s elite guard, and the Ginyu Force (who were scrambled to their emperor’s side after Freeza began to anticipate intent to coup) results in an almost tournament mini-arc itself with various environments and battles occurring. --I think the battles would be the likes of Vegeta v Recoome (Vegeta Win) Raditz and Nappa v Jeice and Burter (Natch Saiyan win) and Broly v Guldo (Broly win) --During this mini-tournament arc each pairing is challenged in some way, Vegeta through having to deal with Recoome’s raw power, the duo battles coming down to Raditz and Nappa learning to work as a unit, rather than in spite of each other, and Broly struggling with what is ultimately a weak (but more strategic and utility-oriented opponent). --Ginyu promptly would attempt to clean up the saiyans as he fought them, slapping around Vegeta around, but not being able to kill them as Raditz and Nappa jump him. Ultimately Broly would reappear (his fight took the longest to win) and through coordination and preventing Ginyu from stealing Broly’s body, they were able to ultimately beat him. ---Broly’s struggles in battles will mostly, especially at a space level, be against opponents who are difficult to defeat in a straightforward fashion. -Eventual battle with Freeza, going largely the same way as-is canon. Broly’s repeated battles against Guldo and Ginyu, which challenge him in an unorthodox way, leave him with a number of injuries that force the others to hold off their enemy for him. Broly was only able to defeat Guldo by being able to activate his Rage form, which seemed to “Super Saiyan Blue Kaioken” his way around time manipulation powers. --Raditz, Nappa, and Vegeta die. Broly comes to the scene just as Freeza has killed Raditz (the first person he met who he felt understood him on some level beyond a love of fighting), which pushes Broly into a rage that unlocks his Super Saiyan State, in addition to his Rage Form. It’s at this point that Broly promptly brutalizes Freeza, and presumably dies on a collapsing planet.

-Broly is brought back to life via Dragon Balls after the discovery of his death. While in the afterlife, Broly was sent to train with North Kai by Kami Roshi’s recommendation. Broly also requested that his friends be trained as well, but due to their hearts had been sent to hell. --While training with North Kai Broly developed a better understanding of how to utilize his chi, as his physical abilities were beyond that of what this teacher’s training could do for him. Broly learns the Spirit Bomb. Broly’s heart is considered to be pure by the standard that he was repentant for the destruction and death he’d wrought during his rages as an oozaru, as well as subsequent instances involving his missions. After losing those close to him, Broly had changed for the better, and had become able to use the technique without the risk of backlash. -Upon Broly’s return to life, he would travel to Namek, taking two years roughly, to resurrect the other three saiyans. -The Android Saga would largely play out the same way until Cell was introduced, though as time would go on the Androids would become a tolerated nuisance once it became clear that they couldn’t kill Broly. Though this would not be a wholly disregarded thing, Broly never suffered from the same heart disease, and likely was unwilling to kill 16-20 in cold blood, though Gero would still be killed by 17 and 18 once it became unclear that 19 wouldn’t be able to handle him. -Cell wouldn’t hit the scene until Age 786, at which point Broly would experience a nearly world-ending battle, as this Cell would be the strongest in the multiverse. The ability for Broly to defeat Cell would likely hinge on Broly’s ability to think creatively, could be seen as ultimately a completion to a character arc for one who largely was able to power through fights, but was finally on the receiving end of a stronger unstoppable force.

-Majin arc probably didn’t occur? Or if it did, it was very brief since no Vegeta/Broly rivalry to force Buu to awaken, or if Buu did awaken it’s likely Broly would have been able to destroy him.

-Battle of Gods arc likely didn’t result in any permanent extension of contact between Whis and earthlings. It is highly likely that Broly simply killed Beerus, or nearly did, possible replacement of Beerus as GoD with Vegeta. -No Rez F, Broly keeps too tight a grip on the four-star ball for that. -Likely no future timeline Trunks so likely no Goku Black arc for same reason of obtaining the dragon balls just simply not occurring -If Beerus is dead or asleep after fighting Broly no Univ 6 v 7, meaning likely no Tournament of Power either.

Voltron 84 is insane, but GoLion...isn’t very good.

Maybe it’s the 30 some-odd years that separated GoLion from other shows, but by modern standards, GoLion...isn’t a very good show. In fact, you could argue that it’s exactly the sort of thing that detractors of anime accused the medium of being, kids fare that for some reason was excessively violent and gory in the hopes of coming off as more mature.

Let’s just count off some reasons as to why the show doesn’t hold up unless you’re a hardcore fan of Voltron that wants to see the show in its “original” capacity.

1. The tone varies to almost a hilarious degree:

The space mice? The overprotective and angry nanny that spanks Princess Fala (Allura) on screen repeatedly? These are all original things from GoLion. They are juxtaposed with things like:

* World War III having occurred in the backstory and all life on Earth was wiped out ala Fist of the North Star. (Except Fist of the North Star is awesome).

* Numerous instances of anime geyser blood, most notably the Galra Death Commandos, who wipe out an entire village of civilians on screen in a way that wouldn’t be out of place in freaking Gantz.

* Literal toddlers being shot to death.

There’s nothing wrong with violence when used effectively, but the way GoLion uses it is a pretty shallow attempt to cover up its lack of well, plot. Speaking of plot:

2. All the major plot beats are taken wholesale from the Robot Romance Trilogy, Voltes V in particular:

It’s sort of a running gag among Filipino fans of Voltes V that Voltron is a cheap knockoff of it. Well, GoLion kinda is. It has the same setup (five people bought together to pilot a giant robot against an alien empire), the same dynamic among the villainous prince and king (Heinel and Zu Zumbajal, Sincline and Daibazzal), and even the EXACT SAME CLIMAX (the home base being an actual starship, something Legendary Defender actually spoiled quite early).

The difference? For all its 70′stastic tropes, Voltes V is a lot more complex. You see, the Galra in GoLion are one-dimensional baby eaters that literally drink blood. In contrast, the aliens in Voltes, the Bozonians, are a rather complex (for the time) society with built-in prejudices and biases, ones that actually shape the villains. The aliens aren’t evil because they’re aliens, they’re evil (or driven to do evil things) because of who they are as people. GoLion lacks this nuance completely.

3. The opening theme is terrible.

It was the 80′s. There were a lot of classic anime openings around this time and even if the song wasn’t your thing, the animation was always really nice to look at.

youtube

GoLion’s opening was...not among them.

youtube

So yeah, GoLion exists, but anyone who tells you it’s a classic of the genre is out and out lying. Admittedly, it came out during a weird time for mecha anime in general, removed from the end of the Robot Romance Trilogy which tackled more complex plots for villains (Voltes V) and actual romance for its lead (Daimos) better than GoLion did. It landed right as the Real Robot craze was beginning as well, with Gundam and Macross both set to redefine how people looked at giant robot cartoons for close to a decade, the robots themselves tools of war. GoLion was already antiquated when it came out the door, and the methods it used to stand apart made the show seem sillier and more dated.

And now I’m going to be sad we never got a Victory Five anime. But that is a story for another day.
