OP HEAR ME OUT:
A oneshot/scenario/headcanon with any MK1 boy of your choice (I would personally love it if you did Shang Tsung and General Shao)...with a giant fem or GN reader. Like think of 6ft 4in and higher compared to their tiny BF! Think of that meme of the small male rabbit loving his giant rabbit girlfriend.
Please and thank you! I love your writing😘👌🏻!
my giant lover
a/n: don't mind me throwing in a bit of my own worldbuilding rq
pairing: general shao x gn!reader
warnings: none :)
Tumblr media
Shao was a large man, well over 7 feet, an anomaly within those of draconic lineage
typically, men of draconic descent are much smaller, shorter, leaner compared to him
he had been offered the privilege of having his height due to his genes through his father and through working as protege and then general for Empress Sindel
Raiden watches Shao in the corner, unable to keep his eyes off the intimidating man who glowers and glares throughout the entire banquet
it makes the champion nervous that Shao could possibly snap his spine if he wanted to with little effort, and he is reminded of that superhero comic that Kung Lao once showed him
Raiden tries to focus on his food, picking at it with his chopsticks, as Liu Kang lightly converses with the others and Kung Lao asks for more food from Kenshi
he hears something stomp through the hallways, and Raiden tenses up, hand raised as electricity jolts between his fingertips as he watches a hulking figure appear in the doorway
you’re easily the tallest person that Raiden had ever met, broad back, straight back, glowering eyes
you have a large set of horns on your head, curving to the side and up, and you stride through the room with an air of confidence
you walk with a purpose, as though hunting for someone, and Raiden sweats in his uniform as he tracks your figure
the other Earthrealm champions have fallen silent as they all watch you walk through the room, snarl on your face and pupils slitted as you stalk through the room
only Liu Kang seems unbothered, sipping on his tea as he continues to talk with the others, and Raiden feels a shiver go down his spine when you pass by him
you could easily snap him in half, break every bone in his body with no trouble, and Raiden gets an eyeful of your sharpened claws and your scaled body
but suddenly, Raiden sees in the corner of the room General Shao stand up, chair screeching against the stone floor
for a second, you stare at the general, growl in your throat and eyes narrowed as you stare at the general, and Raiden thinks a fight might break out
but then General Shao, softens, his eyes almost warming, and you stride on over the general with that low rumble in your throat
you bring your foreheads together, holding onto the small of his waist and also completely engulfing General Shao with your large form
you’re so much…bigger than him, much stronger-looking and intimidating than the general somehow
General Shao gestures you to sit next to Reiko so that the warrior sits between you two, ears flicking as he listens to you laugh and tell him your tales of the day
he listens enraptured, eyes never once breaking from yours unless it’s to grab more food from the center of the table to give to you
even Reiko looks enraptured by you, leaning in and nodding, and you smile and pat his head, in an almost parental fashion
General Shao has his fingers intertwined with yours on the table, leaning in toward you as if you’re a god amongst mortals, and smoke bellows from your nose as you let out a belly laugh
it’s a scene of complete domesticity and none of the others at the banquet seem to care or notice as they continue on with their conversations
Raiden glances at Liu Kang, who does nothing, and then at the other champions, who look dumbfounded at the situation
none of them knew that the angry General Shao could soften for someone, but it turns out that you’re the one who could placate the scowling general

Hello, may i request Diasomnia with Navier!reader? How would they react to her being a former Empress? Her intelligent? Her kindness despise acting like an ice queen all the time? Her dating Malleus? Thank you.
Female Reader.
Tumblr media
Malleus Draconia
Upon finding out that you were an Empress, he understood why you acted so regal even in informal situations. To be fair, he also acted like that a lot. As a result of your royal auras, you both go perfectly hand-in-hand… or arm-in-arm as he loves walking beside you.
He acts exactly like Heinrey. He may look completely different, but he still has that golden retriever energy that we all know and love. Malleus desires to be in your presence at all times, and will fight anyone who tries to take you away. It might be from his draconic instincts to protect his mate, now that I think about it.
There are times where he feels that he is not able to give you the life that he feels you deserve. If you were to marry him, you would only be a Queen rather than an Empress. However, you wouldn’t have as many responsibilities, nor the worry that he would find another woman and take her on as a concubine.
Your intelligence and kindness are something that he admires a lot, as they are qualities befitting a Queen. Plus, with your experience there is no way that the people of Briar Valley wouldn’t accept you as his co-ruler. 
His grandmother already loves you because you remind her of herself. Looks may be deceiving, as you both are perceived as cold and harsh upon first glance. However, if someone really got to know you (Malleus), they are able to see the person within. So, you are accepted by the current Queen as her grandson’s future wife.
Tumblr media
Lilia Vanrouge
Bro really said finally when he saw his ‘son’ walk into the dormitory with a lovesick grin and a sigh leaving his lips. He has been waiting for centuries to see that look on Malleus’s face, and he wants to know every detail. He didn’t expect for the person the Prince was in love with to be you, but he thought it was better to be you than anybody else.
Since he wants to ensure the future of the Kingdom, he will give the dragon fae some human courting tips so that he can woo you. Of course, this is after the ex-general learns more about you. You apparently liked dancing, and you were curious about the Housewarden of Diasomnia, so this looked very promising.
When he finds out that the two of you began courting, he is ecstatic. He immediately writes a letter to Her Majesty back in Briar Valley, giving the Queen an update on her grandson so that she isn’t left in the dark. As he’s writing, though, he begins to realize that you are exactly like Queen Maleficia.
Not only were you known for your ‘cold beauty’, but you were actually kind to the people you considered your friends and allies. In addition to that, you were intelligent and experienced in a leading role, as you were the former Empress of the Empire that you co-ruled with your ex-husband
Lilia acts as a guide for you in Twisted Wonderland, and almost like a grandfather figure. You go to him whenever you have any questions, and he will answer you to the best of his ability. But, since we are talking about the Lilia Vanrouge, don’t be surprised if he plays a small prank on you from time to time.
Tumblr media
Silver 
He is wide awake when he hears that the young master has found a partner. He thought that Malleus was going to remain maidenless for the rest of his long life, but he apparently thought wrong. When he learns more about you, he’s starting to wonder if they were playing a prank on him.
However, when he first met you, he was convinced that this wasn’t a prank that his father was pulling. All of this was actually legit. It didn’t take a genius to find out that you were royalty, considering you held your head up high and held a great poker face.
But, you were also kind and smart, and it again reminded him of the current Queen. It was no wonder why the Prince loved you so much. You both were absolutely perfect for each other. So, you can guarantee that Silver is in full support of this. 
What he didn’t expect was you already being divorced from someone. Not just that, but you were divorced from an Emperor, which meant that you used to be an Empress. It all started to make sense to the second year knight. Not only did you have the qualities fit for a Queen, you had the sense fit for an Empress.
It did make him wonder if the Briar Valley in its current state would be enough to become an Empire. It’s not as though it would happen, as it would mean that it was declaring too much power from the other Kingdoms/Queendoms. The Valley did have a few different lands, though.
Tumblr media
Sebek Zigvolt
He was actually in full support of this, believe it or not. Just one glance at you and he was already bowing down to you like you were already the Queen of the Valley. You intimidated him because of your icy glare, but he eventually got to know you better with how much time you spend at Diasomnia.
Oh, yeah. You spent the majority of your free time with your lover, and this did tick off Sebek a little bit. However, it wasn’t like he could do much about it. He was a bit too busy handling school, the equestrian club, training as a knight, making time to read novels, etc. He did appreciate how you would make sure that he didn’t over-exert himself.
When he found out that you used to be an Empress through marriage, but you got divorced, he was surprised. He thought you looked so young, maybe a little older than him. Come to find out that you were already divorced from somebody. But, he took the time to hear the whole story and it all made sense. 
If he’s being honest, he does get annoyed with how much Waka-sama talks about you. He’s worried about you becoming a distraction to the young master. However, you step in and remind Malleus that he has duties to fulfill, and you even offer to help, which Sebek finds admirable. One time, you complimented his dedication to serving Malleus, and he just went stiff. He let out a strained ‘thank you’, and his face started going red. In his mind, he’s just screaming about how the future Queen of Briar Valley just complimented him. He almost passes out, but it’s all good.

Obey Me Boys as Tarot/Oracle Decks I Own
Tumblr media
Is this stupid? Yes. Am I doing it anyway? Absolutely.
To make a long story short, I have a problem and I compulsively buy tarot and oracle cards, so I have...quite a few. So, I was looking at them and thought, "which ones would fit the characters?" And now look where we are! :) I do have exactly fifteen decks and had planned originally to assign decks to the new side characters as well, but I, A. got tired and B. couldn't find one that fit Mephisto, so I just scrapped that idea altogether. Anyways, here's what literally nobody asked for!
Disclaimer! I did pick out cards that I thought matched the characters as well, based on both meaning and look. I'm not going into detail on all of the cards either...because I will ramble forever. I'm did my best to keep these as brief as possible!
Tumblr media
Lucifer - Archangel Animal Oracle Deck
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Okay, so this could've been a great deck for Simeon or Raphael, but out of what I had, this fit Lucifer the best! It ties back to his origins of being a seraphim. I did pick a card or two that have Archangel Micheal and Raphael in them, and they do fit Lucifer in needing to let others in and to not let pride get in the way of being dependent on others.
Mammon - The Illustrated Crystallary Oracle Deck
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Mostly picked this one due to the fact that crystals can be expensive and high-dollar, which Mammon would be into and exploit (and he has). If not him, this one might've gone to Solomon, but I had a better one for him >:) I picked Mammon's cards based off his greed and his love for the MC...and which crystals would cost a pretty penny.
Leviathan - Mystical Manga Tarot Deck
Tumblr media Tumblr media
My tried and true deck. It was either this one or my Skyrim tarot deck, so I went with this one. It felt more him to me. I picked the Seven of Cups, the Hanged Man, the Hermit, and the Nine of Swords for Levi. In some cases, the Seven of Cups gives me feelings of envy for choices that may seem out of reach or wanting it all when you have to pick and choose, so I went with it.
Satan - The Language of Flowers Oracle Deck
Tumblr media Tumblr media
This is the best I had for Satan, but I feel like he'd be quite knowledgable on flower language. I had several other cards that I had in mind for him as well, namely Action - the Venus Fly Trap, but I wanted to keep the number of cards to four, so... Also, when I first started using this deck, it took a lot of warming up to, (it was shy...if you can believe that or not), which is how Satan is in both games, not shy just...needs to get used to people before opening up.
Asmodeus - Romantic Tarot Deck
Tumblr media Tumblr media
This is the pairing that kicked off this idea. This deck is new, my mom gifted it to me for Easter! She's a sweetie. And I kept think about how Asmo would adore the art and vintage depictions in the cards. Since the cards aren't labeled, I picked the Lovers, the Two of Cups, the Empress, and the Three of Swords. Most of these are "romantic" in nature, or with the Empress, embodies confidence and embracing femininity. Three of Swords because of how dramatic and tragic love and can be, and I'm sure Asmo has had his fair share :(
Beelzebub - Moonology Manifestations Oracle Deck
Tumblr media Tumblr media
This is my second Moonology deck, my other-half, if you will. (Another gift from my mom:)) I really don't have much to say about this deck for Beel, but I figured it would be fun to assign the twins with these decks. The cards were picked based on his feelings of guilt of his past from the Celestial War.
Belphegor - Moonology Oracle Deck
Tumblr media Tumblr media
My first Moonology deck! I think this was the first oracle deck I ever got, so it has a special place in my heart. I obviously had to give this one to Belphie since his theme revolves around the moon and space. Notice in both Beel's and Belphie's I picked one Gemini card each, hehe...
Diavolo - Dragon Wisdom Oracle Deck
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Considering Dia's demon form is draconic (dra-ICONIC! Heh, anyone?), this seemed right. I'm less familiar with this deck since it's not one of the primary ones I use, but it was fun to go through it again like it was new, lol. There was another card I almost picked for him, Initiation. But I thought these ones fit best.
Barbatos - Celtic Healing Oracle Deck
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Once again, this is one of those scenarios where this was the best I had for Barb. There's a strange energy to these cards, mysterious and timeless almost, a little spooky. Kinda reminds me of him in some way. I'm the least familiar with this deck as it's relatively new and I haven't really used it yet, so apologies for lack of substance with this one.
Simeon - The Field Tarot
Tumblr media Tumblr media
This was a gift from a friend of mine. It was theirs originally, but they so thoughtfully handed it down to me, and I use it quite a lot! This deck felt very mellow and light compared to my other ones. Very minimalist, so I thought it fit Simeon's vibe. To note: the Perspective card is this deck's Hanged Man. The Three of Cups reminded me of the og Purgatory Hall gang.
Solomon - Oceanic Tarot Deck
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Based on his love for marine life and his...past with the ocean, how could I resist! Also, didn't mean for two of the cards I picked to be king and queen of the same suit, but I thought they fit his personality and way of living. The suit cards are pretty basic, featuring some marine life behind the pictures and whatnot without having too much imagery.
Luke - Tiny Tarot Deck
Tumblr media
Come on...I had to. I put it in my hand so you could really get the perspective of how small it is. It's cute! I didn't pull any of the cards out since the box struggles to hold them in and I'm afraid of getting them everywhere, but they are your standard Rider-Waite-Smith deck! I probably would've picked the Sun or the Six of Cups for him, something along the lines of youth and vibrancy. (MY GOD, MY VEINS LOOK LIKE A STAR WTH?? I just noticed that, omg) Well...that's new...

Morpho Knight!!! :D
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Yay Mori!!!!!!!! It Marophim!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Lesgo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Fun fact: this form is actually a disguise. Mortal species aren’t meant to see Goddesses in their entirety, so Mori was told to disguise themself as something fitting. They chose to be a Butterfly, which are very common in Gamble Galaxy, for when they’re around others; when they’re alone, or only with Astrals or other Reapers, they look like this!
Their true form is far more Draconic. Big, bony wings, horns, clawed feet, and the like.
Trans bug info and hex codes under the cut! Trans bug trans bug
(Remember, ArtShield desaturates images put through it, so if you’re going to draw them, reference the listed hex codes!)
Full name: Marophim
Aliases: Morpho Knight, ‘Mori’
Species: Draconic Demigod
Planet of Origination: Concept Universe
Age: 20,890,968
Height: 7’0”
Gender: Biologically female; identifies as non-binary
Pronouns: They/Them/Theirs
Sexuality: Queer, asexual
S/O: Empress (joyfriend), Mirror-World Ione/Dark Meta Knight (boyfriend), Mirror-World Galacta/Mirogala (partner)
Family: Yacho’o (mother), Yway (sister), Yakii (sister), Ophanim (sister)
One of Yacho’o’s children, tasked with reaping lost souls.
In a romantic polycule with Empress and the Mirror-World versions of Ione and Galacta, otherwise known as Dark and Mirogala (or Miro). Does not currently plan on having children with any of them.
Child of a Goddess, though not reaching Ykka levels of power, they were born and raised to be among the most powerful Grim Reapers in the Multiverse. They’ve been reaping souls for most of their life, starting at 200 years old.
A kind and usually quiet person. They’re incredibly hyper-empathetic, and capable of sensing a person’s emotions due to countless years of exposure to Souls. As such, they’re very good at comforting others, and are one of the most understanding people on Popstar, without exaggeration.
Has lived in many places across their long lifetime, but has settled in a few places; most recently, they decided to live in Dreamland to help in training and protecting the planet’s guardian, Kirby. They’re not meant to interact with the living very often, because of their status as both a Demigod and Grim Reaper, so they don’t have many friends, but they make do with what they have, and they’re grateful.
Their weapon of choice is the Doomblade Ares, forged by their mother Yacho’o specifically for the purpose of reaping Souls. They also use their natural Fire magic on occasion, but not very commonly.

Jiǔwěihúlí/Jiuweihuli - The Nine Tailed Vixen
By the way; Wukong in "The Monkey King and the Infant"/TMKATI au isnt the only monkey getting an adoptive parental figure >:3
Went down a little of a Huli jing rabbit-hole after recieveing this ask from @dorothygale123:
Tumblr media
And while researching Jin and Yin in the book, I realised some stuff;
In "Journey to the West", the Jin and Yin's mother is frequently described as "aged/old madam", making it likely that she had them in the demon equivalent of middle-age.
Here's the poetry Wukong jots down (he does that alot in the book) when he sees her for the first time;
"Snow-white hair all tousled,
And starlike eyes all aglow.
Her face, though ruddy, has many wrinkles;
She‟s full of spirit though few teeth remain.
Charming—like the frosted chrysanthemum;
Rugged—like an old pine tree after rain.
A scarf of fine-spun white silk wraps her head,
And bejeweled gold rings hang from her ears"
For some odd reason, the monkey cries at the sight of her (his excuse being that he has to bow to her while disguised as a servant). Then he abruptly bonks her and her servants while travelling before stealing her divine Binding Gold Rope and disgusing himself as her to trick her sons. And of course the whole Calabash incident happens, the boys uncle calls down an army of fox demons to fight the pilgrims, and Lao Tzu has to show up and smack his lab assistants across the head.
Which leaves the question... how does Lao Tzu know the kids of a random fox lady???
Well you see, in the Han-era (206 BCE - 220 CE); Xiwangmu was often depicted with a white-furred Huli Jing among her ladies-in-waiting. But any worship of fox-deities was out-lawed in the Song dynasty (960 CE - 1279 CE) due to a cult religion that worshipped Su Daji (of the "Investiture of the Gods/Fengshen Yanyi" fame).
So my idea for Jiuweihuli in the extended LMK-verse, is that she's was once Xiwangmu's og bestie, even long before the celestial tigress became Empress. The fox being among many chaotic and infernal spirits in the future Queen Mother's posse.
Upon the abdication of Yuanshi Tianzun as the Divine Emperor; Jiuweihuli would assist the future-Jade Emperor in his ascension to the throne, gaining her the titles "Dragon-Crushing/Supressing Vixen" due to her defeating multiple draconic rivals in battle.
For many centuries, Jiuweihuli and her family were welcome members of the Imperial Court. The older vixen having a position almost equal to a head consort despite her and the Emperor not having such interest in eachother.
Tumblr media
Then the Investiture crisis happened...
Within years, all that Jiuweihuli had built in the Celestial Realm crumbled. The actions of Su Daji soured opinion of the Celestials towards all fox spirits. Jiuweihuli was forced to be exiled from the Jade Palace down to Earth to prevent her being killed in an angry mob.
Penniless, alone, and with only her trusty pipa to her name; Jiuweihuli would travel and sing.
Eventually she gained a reputation as a grand preformer, drawing in audiences and tudis alike. Most of her trainees were unaware of her true nature, and those who did kept it quiet - drama kids loved the tragedy of the vixen's tale and would sing it throughout opera houses.
And one day, some time after the Monkey King tore through Heaven; Jiuweihuli gained a very unusual apprentice.
Jiuweihuli, sitting at her vanity table: "You look familiar." Macaque, stepping out of the shadows: "I was once the attendant to Princess Iron Fan, but I believe both of our places in the court have been absolved." Jiuweihuli: "Oh yeah, I went to that wedding. Had to wear a glamour. Is that Bull prince treating her right?" Macaque: "He is. He was even willing to sacrifice his place in his own court for her." Jiuweihuli: "Ah. Young love. But what brings you here?" Macaque, sheepishly: "I uh... heard you were the person to go to if I wanted to learn how to preform professionally." Jiuweihuli: "...your boyfriend's in jail, right?" Macaque: "Uh, yeah?" Jiuweihuli, getting up from her vanity table: "Good. 'Cus you're about to recieve many admirers." Macaque: :'D!
You see, the older fox spirit knew she wasn't to be the "Vixen of the Stage" for much longer. She was already thousands of years old, and had found herself in the family-way by means of a romance gone sour. So when the dark, mysterious, and deadly beautiful Six-Earred Macaque showed up in her dressing room asking for mentorship? Jiuweihuli knew she had found her understudy.
With the Macaque taking on her most famous roles, Jiuweihuli was able to focus on raising her twin sons; Jin and Yin. Macaque often found himself dragged into babysitting the little terrors by the maternal fox, even if he had to admit their thieving skills were very good. The vixen in turn would protect the monkey from more imposing audience members/fans and encourage his more sarcastic humor.
She was of the shoulders Macaque cried upon when him and Wukong had their falling out.
Eventually the vixen managed to get into contact with an old... "friend" (the twins gag at the thought) Lao Tzu to provide the reckless boys some decent education.
Tumblr media
Aaand of course Wukong had to show up centuries later and cause havoc for the fox family when the twins got a little wild with their teacher's stash/artifacts. Luckily Jiuweihuli's brother, Hu A'qi, managed to smooth things over with heaven and offered his studious daughter as another lab assistant to keep the boys in check. Jiuweihuli, cleaning her wounds, sent a letter informing Macaque that his "idiot boyfriend" was out of jail...
Jiuweihuli soon lost her understudy.
The shadow monkey too blinded by anger to consider who would have to pick up the pieces if he failed. Jiuweihuli would eventually go on to teach a hundreds of aspiring actors and musicians, but she always would mourn for her little shadow.
Cue the events of "The Monkey King and the Infant" where Macaque begins frequenting and eventually working at the Megapolis Threatre House. He recognises not only his Brotherhood-era friend Jade-Faced; but a certain old master of his...
Tumblr media
Jiuweihuli: "Do I know you?" Macaque: "I should hope so. I was your understudy for many years." Jiuweihuli: "I've trained hundreds of understudies, hon." Macaque: "You trained me during the Tang-era? I could manipulate the shadows?" Jiuweihuli: "Doesn't ring a bell." *sly smirk* Macaque, realises she's messing with him: *sigh* "My idiot boyfriend hit you on the head with a cudgel and I stupidly ran after him and got killed." Jiuweihuli, dropping the act: "Mihou! My little moonlight! Oh how I've missed you!" *gives him a big lipstick-stained smooch on the cheek*
The old vixen is very protective of her understudy now that she has him back. Her motherly side really comes to the surface when she's interacting with the shadow monkey, even if her interactions with her biological children isn't as soft. Jin and Yin get a slap of her sandal more than a few times for their foolishness.
If she learns that Macaque has a kid/kid on the way, Jiuweihuli is going full Grandma-mode. She's always considered her understudy as equal to her own kits and now he's all grown up!! (╥ ω ╥)
And you better believe a certain Monkey King is getting his ass kicked by an old lady the second Jiuweihuli learns he's around.

worldbuilding in 5 tag
tagged a bit back by @tabswrites, thank you!
Rules: post 3-5 images of a place in your world and tell us a bit about it!
for this one I’m going to do Voi’xindiiri, otherwise known as the Draconic Empire, from Valloroth!

The stone is grey, the roof gold with green supports.] Source 2 - [ID - A path lined by short stone columns, wooden fencing, and tall, straight trees.] Source 3 - [ID - The front of a large building with four pillars in front of a wooden door.

Voi’xindiiri is what remains of the dracari empire, created—and still ruled—by the Earthbound god, Sirsassa the black, who is the only living dragon left in the world. The Empire has forgotten more magic than the rest of Valloroth knows, and used to cover the entire eastern half of the continent before it fell to the destructive betrayal of the now-dead dragon, Ruvosha the Green.
Currently, Voi’xindiiri remains the most magically advanced nation, though it rarely shares its secrets. The most unique feature is the network of teleportation Waystations that criss-cross the country. Every major settlement possesses one, and the larger cities—especially the capital—have multiple. Travel across the Empire is fast and efficient for those with the coin to make use of it, and the most successful merchants always do. The secret of their creation has, unfortunately, been lost to time.
It covers a vast swathe of Valloroth, and a multitude of diverse environments. It’s divided into 15 provinces, the largest being Sahlizivara, where the capital of Kashoskalya holds the Imperial Palace of the God-Empress. Until recently, Mohaade and Fygek were also considered part of Voi’xindiiri, and many in the Empire still don’t recognise their independence, not least because the Zarahmin took control of the Mohaade Waystation and corrupted it to kill any dracari that uses it.

The preview gave a lot of craziness to digest.We are at least going to experience an artistic style tone shift,the Empress going draconic,and Shalala might know a bit more than she's been letting on up until now.

so i redesigned the whole timekeeping system for the world of that one rpg idea that i mentioned before. because it’s my world and it’s a different universe from earth and earth’s solar system entirely (and also i just really like designing calendars)
so I ask You:
context, there are 28 hours in a day.
Additional Context:
343 days in a year
7 days in a week
7 weeks in a month
7 months in a year
the global calendar system was created by a woman viewed as the most powerful person in the world who led a small group of fighters to defeat an army of angels with an ultra-powerful and seemingly-unstoppable leader
clearly, he was not unstoppable
the equivalent of a second in this universe is called a pulse
the value of a pulse is defined by the space of time between rhythmic pulses of magical energy emanated by the four nexuses from which the planet’s Leylines flow; these nexuses are called Pools
pulses are also sometimes called Progenitor Heartbeats, usually just ‘beats’
minutes and hours are still minutes and hours; they’re derived from Latin words
Peccatum, the name of the planet, is a Latin word; Latin in this universe is called Ancient, or the Progenitor’s Tongue
the word second is also derived from Latin but an alternative was available and thus was it used
there is an additional division of time called a quadrant
you know how there are 24 hours clocks, and then there are 12 hour clocks split between AM and PM
some professions (usually professions based around combat and tactical battles, or cooking) and some civilizations (human settlements separate from the Capitol, most of the Draconic Enmpire, and any Fae Coven that actually bothers to keep time) use 28 hour clocks
otherwise, a 7-hour clock is used, which based on the length of time it takes for the Sun and Atalanta to complete their arcs during an equinox
from sunrise to Solaire’s Zenith is the Rising Sun quadrant (RS); from the zenith to moonrise is Setting Sun quadrant (SS); from moonrise to Atalanta’s Zenith is the Ascending Moon quadrant (AM); and from the zenith to sunrise is the Falling Moon quadrant (FM)
yes i know am and fm are confusing i like it like that
Atalanta is the moon closest to Peccatum and it most closely opposes the arc of the Sun. there are three other moons—in order of their closeness to the planet, they are Saphira, Titania, and Echidna
the moons are also called the Progenitor’s Eyes, and they each have an association with the four Progenitors of the Original Races
the Progenitors are Humanity’s Goddess of the Cycle (Atalanta), the Rainbow-Scaled Empress of Dragons (Saphira), the Fourfold Queen of the Fae (Titania), and the Mother of Animals and Monsters (Echidna)

My first Helluva Boss OC in my Helluva Boss AU. I think since it would be a long post then it would be divided into volumes. So let’s go!
Tumblr media
VOL. 1. Ladies and gentlemen, meet Rhea Daegarys, previously crown princess of Vardarys (The Great Vardaryan Empire) and current Dragon Empress - ruler of state, protector of the empire and it’s inhabitants. I’ve gone so far that with her I started to do some more world building to Hell and created not only her but a whole new hellish race: Draconicus’/so-called Draconic Imps (which were there from the very beginning of Hell’s creation and were there for long till Lucifer’s fall and which WAS and IS the main dominant power of Hell despite Luci became the King of Hell) and their domain, heavily (and mean HEAVILY) inspired (mostly) by Valyrians, Old Valyrian lore and Dragonlords of ASOIAF universe and other related fictional places that has “the mightiest, most advanced and unstoppable empire/kingdom ever” vibe (Numenor, Atlantis, Fire nation, Asgard, Wakanda, Nilfgaardian Empire and etc.) It’s like a “what if” thing: what if Valyria, it’s population and dragons weren’t erased by the Doom and instead were thriving and existing to the very modern days with evidence of the great, ancient, magnificent past visualised, first of all, by grand and enormous architecture and also unique culture and traditions (most of them are adapted to modern standards) but with modern day features like high technology, TV, malls, shops, hotels, subway of all empire, penthouse apartments, grand central railway station which routes to other hellish rings (and special deeps which also lead to other rings of Hell, which work like Bifrost Bridge from MCU and vast enough to pass a dragon of every size without any problems or harm to creature or it’s rider) and etc.
What if there was similar analogue to Valyrian civilisation/race in Helluva Boss Hell world.
Yeah, it’s like a mix of a fictional fantasy land with highly advanced modern day megapolis. All in all, I imagine Vardarys (The Great Vardaryan Empire) like modern day Valyria (which even in ancient times already was a world dominant, highly advanced civilisation) with Wakandan high (nearly sci-fi) technologies which ahead the rest of Hell (and of course with a presence of a super metal — local analogue of Vibranium and Valyrian steel) and a thing such as invisible protective shield that cover all of imperial territory and make it a pretty isolated place cause besides native race not so many representatives of other hellish races are allowed to live here (Valyria was isolated too by the way, even without special protection):
Tumblr media
The main aesthetic (first of all, in architecture) is obvious
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
The uniqueness of territory in which Vardarys locates explained by the border between Wrath ring which has big amount of volcanoes and canyons with vast spaces (the best environment for fire-breathing, flying creatures which can grow colossal in size) and rich soil (thanks to the same volcanic activity) that makes Wrath the main ring of Hell in economy and agriculture
Tumblr media Tumblr media
And Gluttony ring which has tropical climate and environment to help to damp up the dryness of Wrath and grow any kinds of tropical plants, which also need the big amount of water to grow. The border between these two rings creates a place that mixed the best traits of these rings in climatic and geological sense of the environment (the same as Valyria which despite being volcanic peninsula also had tropical humid climate and was affordable enough to grow green without any problems)
Like that:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
That was the geographic, ethnic, geological and climatic volume part of this hellborn race/civilisation.
The next volume will be about racial/physical/biological Draconicus’/so-called Draconic Imps differences from other hellborn races and mostly Imps.

born to make maps forced to 5,000 word essay (I’m an English major)
map for my oc lore :] the continent (or two continents idk one flood and that little strip is GONE) is called Deoskrotia
rip the korosian empire you wouldn’t have loved the 30 year war over oil between you know who and Norway (I love my lore)
I’ll add the capital cities when I actually name them LOLZ
But korosia’s capital was called Vriqal Spires and it’s mostly abandoned now
and Corvus’s is called Auratovus
ramblings v
uhh Korosia operated under the belief that their land sat atop the slumbering body of a great dragon (save me vaguely dragon shaped continents save me) so they were very environmentally conscious which is why Corvus magically nuked them and destroyed their environment
Belraine used to be a part of Korosia but they broke off thanks to my bg3 durge who is also in my oc lore bc…yeah…and Vael happened to be like the vessel of a god (not Bhaal) so the empress at the time decided it wasn’t worth fighting the god she worshipped over belraine so
Korosia & Belraine are almost entirely inhabited by tiefling/tiefling-like individuals, Korosia has a lot of dragonborn and half-dragons as well tho bc dragons are very important to them which is ALSO why Corvus stole the dragons as their symbol
Dragons & any draconic or reptilian species are very important to Korosia so they have a lot of respect the more scales or wings you have so…y’know
ummm the whole deal between them is Korosia worships the creator god (who actually made most of the stuff) Ilya and Corvus worships Sycorlan, who is also a creator god but didn’t make as much. Ilya & Syc had a falling out over a misunderstanding and Syc basically rewrote history to paint Ilya as evil bc Ilya represents a lot of life cycles n stuff?? Like death must happen to make way for new life n stuff, so Syc used that against him and then beat him so bad Ilya basically died and is forced to reincarnate into vessels that are growing increasingly independent of his wishes. Which is where the lore picks up?
Kosorvo was the ATTEMPT between Korosia and Corvus to get along but Corvus pressured them w/trade embargoes into allying with them so
Nuevas Cantaras isn’t actually a country anymore, but they used to be a very long time ago. Back when the gods Ilya created were still in power Nuevas Cantaras was a huge hub for worshippers of the fire snake god Feu-Ra, however aftee Ilya’s fall he could feel his power corrupting and his control slipping so he trained the daughter of the new fire god to take his fang and slay him which created the Eye of Fire that’s been passed down quite a lot to the other main character in my story (who cannot tie his shoes)
Ilya, after spending several eternities having his name slandered and countless wars, is not nearly as benevolent or kind as he once was so his vessels usually aren’t happy.
Vaelkas is actually the only one of these vessels to break himself away from Ilya and still be alive and it’s because Astarion (yes I yoinked him) found a way to drain him to where he’s almost dead and simultaneously perform a ritual to expel Ilya.
Vyserion was the vessel prior to the one in the main story, he died during the final war between Corvus and Korosia that got Korosia eradicated. Tbh he just wanted to retire and go live on his estate in peace. Now he’s a ghost who bullies/advises the new vessel occasionally and also is currently trying to stage a coup in hell!
Aaaand the current vessel is named Ser and he was rushed to be made (?) bc Ilya wanted him to be the child of the lady who killed Vyserion just to make her go insane so naturally that childhood went very well for ser
And naturally he grows up during a war between Norway & the U.S. over oil reserves (blah blah his “mom” moved from Deoskrotia to earth blah blah) so what better way to avoid being the tool of the god than to be the tool of the military!
Ser is struggling so hard trying to live with a foot in both worlds he is losing his mind thank goodness he has a loving husband (he gets kidnapped) (and slowly falls out of love with Ser bc man’s cannot find his marbles)

Esterahn History: The Storm-Born Hope
The world of Esterah is defined by two distinct periods; the Ancient Era, and the Post-Cataclysm era. Long ago, a civilisation known only as the Ancients thrived in Esterah, the mark of their greatness persisting in ruins even now. Their fledgling world, barely brought back from the brink of nonexistence, thrived for their accord of harmony with gods and spirits alike. However, this would not be a lasting peace; the chaotic nature of the Tempest, formed from the rampant magics still swimming in the world's aether, would soon find its own way to interfere with the balance.
It was because of this tumultuous soul that Esterah was wracked by the Cataclysm; darkness and horror the likes of which the world had never seen ruled the land, leaving the gods desperate to fend for themselves and quell the darkness that plagued them. Magic ran more wild than ever, and forces beyond all comprehension would roost and nest in the newly-formed lands. When the darkness eventually faded and the stars lit the sky to provide the people of Esterah with a new glimmer of hope, the lands were left bereft, and in need of direction.
Among the lands struggling to gain their footing was a continent to the East - in the time of the ancients, this land was known as Yanxia.
While other lands, other people, toiled with the lessons inherited from the old world to rebuild and redefine their civilisations, Yanxia had the fortunate gift of a guiding hand. From far away had a majestic dragon drifted, landing on the continent in the form of a human woman of almost etheral stature to help guide and nurture the lost and panicked remnants of a once-great republic. Through her might and magic, she would breathe new life into the land once devastated by torrents and wildfires, allowing life to flourish, crops to grow - and the people she would come to care for to at last thrive again.
Their leader, seemingly endless in her compassion, wisdom, and awe-inspiring strength, would take for herself the name of Dragon Empress, with the very Spirits she guided her people to revere as her witness. In equal parts exchange for her service and goodwill, and out of purest respect and love for the one they had long accepted as leader, her people would gift unto her a name befitting their culture and their ideals; Izumi Igarashi, the Fountain of Fifty Storms.
The chaos left in the wake of the Tempest's magnum opus, however, would not quell simply at her word; mere compassion was no true antidote to the wounds the world yet suffered. Thus, her rule would not remain unchallenged.
The dragons that roamed the world proved themselves to be naturally proud and domineering creatures, as eager to collect a flock of awestruck followers as they are to hoard wealth, knowledge, and other such commodities, be they material or immaterial. Though Yanxia was fortunate to receive, by draconic standards, a paragon of virtue and order in her view of pride and leadership, the land would soon be set upon by one who had no such gentleness in his heart.
From the Western reaches did streams of acid, frost, lightning and flame emerge; an eight-headed serpent, claiming for himself the name of Yamata no Orochi, would demand worship from the people of Yanxia, seeking to build a mighty and unstoppable empire whose breadth would reach across all the world. He would challenge Izumi to single combat, confident that his own rage and power would easily strike down the one who so arrogantly proclaimed herself Empress.
But Izumi's heart, in the tender years following the world's devastation, was not broken and consumed by fury, as Orochi's was. Her desire for leadership came not from a desire for conquest, for riches, but from the simple fact that mortals needed guidance in order to create a new world. Armed with the understanding that she would be better loved than feared, Izumi would refuse the serpent's challenge, that she may instead focus her will on helping the people - her people - build a nation mightier and more prosperous than anything the Ancients could have conceived of.
Infuriated by her refusal to meet him in combat, Orochi refused to be ignored. As the flurry of death and destruction from his many heads threatened to set the land ablaze again, he promised that any fields she helped to till would be razed, any village she brought together would be reduced to cinder, until at last she submitted and recognised his authority and power.
Izumi, however, had the love of her people and the privilege of her creation as her arms. She would instead request that the gods send a champion to repel the serpent; a call that would be answered by none other than the Twin Winds, Tatsuta-Hiko and Tatsuta-Hime.
From a mighty cyclone in the sea, an ancient Titan would be revived, and even granted godhood, to challenge the dragon. The Twin Winds granted him blessed arms and armor where once there lay cockel shells and seafoam, and relinquished unto him their ability to tame and control the very storms and lightning that once disturbed his rest. This champion, this stalwart and determined defender of the land, would be remembered by the annals of history as Susanoo, the Lord of the Revel.
Susanoo would be the one to challenge Orochi, and meet him on the battlefield; as the two fought, the longest and most violent storm to have wracked the world since the Cataclysm itself broke out over Yanxia. The Dragon and the Titan remained equally matched; Susanoo's lightning and swordsmanship would continue to strike Orochi down and sever his heads, but the relentless beast would simply grow them back stronger, and wrack the titan's body with fire, frost, and scalding death.
As the two continued their eternal battle, inching away from the land that he swore to protect, the very same reason for Izumi's people to hide became their most hopeful and awe-inspiring spectacle. Even as the two of them descended into the deepest oceans, the tempests that ravaged the distant seas filled the hearts of the people with hope at knowing that Susanoo would forever struggle and fight to keep them safe from tyranny.
It was in this very spectacle, the strikes of lightning upon the horizon and the storms that stirred the sea, that Izumi would at last find the muse to name her fledgling country. Bearing witness to the distant typhoon, her brow laid in gold, and her purpose renewed to usher in an era of peace, prosperity, and greatness, her voice would utter a name that would echo across all time; Arashi-Tensei no Kitai - The Storm-Born Hope.
To this day, the storms that ravage the land and sea alike are but reminders of Susanoo's unending battle against the bloodthirsty Orochi, laying far beneath the surface of those who could bear witness. And, every year starting from the first Fireday of Erastus, and lasting until and including the following Fireday, many parts of Kitai hold a festival known as Susanoo-Matsuri. This festival, featuring contests of strength and endurance, among the usual amenities befitting a Kitaian festival, allows the people of Kitai to thank Susanoo for protecting them, and encourage him to keep fighting, and perhaps one day, even claim victory over Orochi.

You'd been told that Harrashu was a lizard god. Draconic, almost; crawling, hissing, scaled and snickering. Harrashu was fierce, violent, spiteful, and just as packed full of baleful fire as you might expect. Kind to her sacrifices, for just a splitsecond, and then - with a crack of that silky, whiplike tail - huffing their light out with a malice-filled puff of aggression. She was orgasmically perfect, for all her poor intentions and cruel obsessions. Princely and elegant. Controlling and selfish. Everything someone could want in an absolute, peerless god-empress, and everything that could cause billions to flee. She could bleed out the exoduses of entire populations with a blink; one nasty look. She could kill those same populations with a crick of her knuckles.
This, however, was no dragon. No lizard. Not even a gecko. Harrashu, at this paralyzing moment in time - the height of Harrashi-Mana's sacrificial festival - looked closer to a frog. A toad. Even half-transformed into her human shadow - a heavy tail racing behind her like a gown's chaser - Harrasha-sama took her domineering struts forwards one at a time. One. Two. Hhhrrghh--! Plap.
Even the god-empress cowered beneath her own obesity. She looked like she was heaving an entire wagon of it. An exquisitely dressed, white-and-gold cloaked empire of fat, churning about - and no doubt slowing down your own execution. You dare not look, but the noises this goddess is making is enough that you can imagine it.
The obsidian tiles groan beneath her. Every few 'steps', she has to wheeze and pant against a marbled pillar. She smacks and slaps her belly, if only to let it know how much it is hated for being so obese and obstructive. She drips sweat onto the floor. She pads, barefoot, along it all, bringing her stink closer with every minute.
You dare not lift your head. You are the sacrifice. The toll your village must pay for having the gall to not let itself be obliterated for another year. You are food.
"Human..." Harrashu-sama wheezes, stopping finally, just inches from not being able to see you past her udder-sized, fat-gelatinous tits. She can't control her weight, per se, but she can control where it goes. "Human..." She pants again, trying to wring some sweat from the locks of her pitch-black bob. "My sacrifice..." With a glistening beam of pride, Harrashu-sama squeezes a giggle from her own overtaxed lungs. Plump cheeks, sitting atop entire discuses of dough, just manage to laugh at you. Sure, this being is obese, but she is still worthy of her full moniker; God-Empress, Mana-Exaltant, Harrashu-sama-Deckada.
"Human... Teach me how to exercise...!"
