There are tales of a beautifully stoic misthios who roams the land with an unnaturally red bird at her side. It is said that should you be her next target, you will not face death with fear, but, rather, peace as if she were sent by the gods to retrieve you and lead you to Elysium.

Here’s a misthios!Diana sketch dump with varying outfits. I really wasn't going to color it but c’mon look at that sketch how could i resist and thus i like to torture myself. She’s not ripped as hell (as she logically should be) because I have no idea how to draw muscles and also i didn’t feel like it 

Random Odyssey!Diakko lore: Diana can only be found smiling with Akko (so hardly anyone ever but Akko has seen her smile). She probably kills people without emotion which sounds scary as hell and so I like it and I have no idea what her complete powers are yet, but will decide when the time comes. Thank my girlfriend for this she chose the poses and the request for weapons. Diana is not leading people to Elysium exactly (despite the goddess Lore that I chose), its just the rumors behind her because i like to play with the idea she’s extraordinarily beautiful because im biased and so people are just like “Wow an angel! *pleh dead*”

Side lore: Technically Akko is a misthios also LOL she just tags along with Diana n lives her best life 

reference pics used especially for the big one because im the worst at anatomy and don't know where body parts go

“I want him dead.” 

Normal words to hear for a misthios, but unfortunately this particular target had a few quirks. With him hardly ever leaving his heavily guarded home, it seemed almost impossible to get in without massive bloodshed. But as if a sign from the gods, an invitation was found to attend one of his “secret parties” which required an absurd amount of inspections before entry. That is to say Diana could not carry any weapons (that they could find), and obviously no “wild animals” were allowed entry either.

Honestly, it sounded like way too much of a hassle, what with buying fancy new clothes as well, but Akko wanted food and the drachmae reward would cover the costs anyway, so why not? Rumor has it that the most beautiful and richest of women would easily get his attention and thus set up the perfect opportunity to strike. And so...

Spoiler: Akko destroyed her dress (”I told you to turn into a bird FIRST!” [bold of Diana to assume they’d have time to even pick up the dress afterwards]) and Diana had a concealed dagger somewhere in her clothes to use. Though they accidentally got the attention of the guards with a giant bear running around and so there was bloodshed anyway (but less as the mission was done and they were only trying to retreat)

Was this just an excuse for me to draw them in fancy ancient greek clothes? Yes. It was a hell of a nightmare trying to color this and I honestly never want to color again. Anyway I want to go back to the fighting gear now.

Diana Week 2020: Monday aka forcing more Odyssey AU onto people day

Because I am well aware that I Do Not know how to color but I’ve invested too much of my life into this to quit now, I’ve included the lineart without color below.

She here. I used a picture of Kassandra walking through a wheat field for reference. Also apparently I’ve been drawing Diana’s hair wrong this whole time LMAO this is my attempt to get back on track

Don’t worry there should be plenty of Diakko I just wanna get these ones knocked out first. this is crossed out because i am Struggling and make no promises but also do trust in my stubborn ass

#lwa #diana cavendish #lwa au #odyssey au #odyssey!diakko #my art #oops i didnt even include lore #oh well onto next time's diana sketch dump #diana week 2020

Shapeshifters are rumored to be those “punished by the gods,” and are to be exterminated for their “sins”. Orphaned at a young age, Akko’s happiest memory is of a powerful shapeshifter named Chariot who spoke in public settings as an activist for shapeshifters despite the looming threat over her head. Unfortunately, Chariot mysteriously disappeared soon after that the only logical conclusion would be her murder. But no matter how many years have passed, Akko still believes that Chariot is alive and vows to find her.

Shapeshifters are hated against because of their ability that is seen as a punishment by the gods. This causes many shapeshifters to be hunted down to the point that Akko is one of the only shapeshifters remaining.

Akko’s parents were also shapeshifters, but met the same fate as the others of their kind.

Shapeshifters have a symbol on their neck that basically reveals who they are. If Akko has to be a human, she normally wears a hood to hide her mark or hides it some other way.

Akko tries not to transform at all in front of others unless they are going to kill them anway.

Because she was alone, Akko didn’t start with full understanding of her powers. She mainly uses a bird because that was her most known transformation, but over time she learns to transform into other animals.

Diakko!Odyssey AU

Most recent update: 8/28/2020 I added the comic of them meeting and also wrote a little snippet under the Diakko section

Welcome all. This post will officially be my master post of the Odyssey AU which will be updated as time moves forward so that I can link all of my related art to it. Yes I will not be posting multiple separate Updates in text posts how it’s traditionally done, but instead there will be information with each art and then a link back to this post. This is to avoid clutter since I hardly post on this blog anyway so it wouldn’t be fun having to scroll through all of my “OH ALSO THIS HAPPENS!” to get to art. Also I keep changing my mind on a lot of things in the AU so disregard information under the arts anyway as I will be posting here what is actually relevant.

Another key thing: I will be avoiding spoilers as much as possible until they are either shown in art or stated explicitly like I do in posts because I am the absolute worst at surprises. But anyway fear not for spoilers. Things said here are things that should be hinted at/known already. (and also I hardly know anything but maybe I will in due time)

Without further ado..

Introduction

What is the Odyssey AU?

The odyssey au is an alternative universe combining both Assassin’s Creed: Odyssey and Little Witch Academia into this (very random) adventuring story that takes place in ancient Greece. I guess I can’t say that it’s random since one of my favorite things about both ACO and LWA is the ties/references to mythology with the former obviously more rooted in the mythology and the latter just fun easter egg references. 

The general premise is that Diana is a misthios(mercenary) who travels with Akko, a shapeshifter, across Greece to find the answers pertaining to her origin.

The first art post: Diana and Akkoros

While living her life as a misthios, Diana searches for the answers pertaining to her origin and superhuman (described as “magical”) abilities along with Shapeshifter Atsuko, who commonly uses her powers for flight, but is not shy to switch to animals more suited for combat.

But I don’t know what Assassin’s Creed: Odyssey is?

That’s fair and understandable. Honestly my AU diverges a lot from the game so I don’t think knowledge of ACO is exactly necessary it’s just fun to understand the connections if you know them. Basically the key things you need to know from ACO as of now is: 

Kassandra (the protag) is known as the Eagle Bearer because she has an eagle that is known as the “eagle of Zeus” throughout the game. And they adventure together and Ikaros (the eagle) can hunt n kill things and See things and tbh he’s rly just a cool eagle but not a shapeshifter or anything lol

Kassandra is a Mercenary (misthios) which is basically a for Hire fighter/person who will p much do anything for money (if they want to do it) 

Kassandra is usually referred to a demi-god because of her powerful fighting abilities in which I mean yea she literally has powers and can blast people like a billion miles away (im jk but-)

Kassandra can tame animals (which ones depending on your skill level). You can tame uhh wolves, lynx, leopards, lions, bears. This is where my ‘shapeshifter’ idea began and it pretty much fit perfectly since Akko’s favorite spell is the shapeshifting one. 

Other than this, the most important things to know for this AU is just,, general mythology,, I guess? Or history? General history of mythology and how people worshipped/acted in accordance to the gods. And I’m not saying im going to be historically accurate obviously, nor even mythologically accurate (if that’s even a thing lol), I’m just here to have a good time and enjoy my gay mercenaries while talking about gods/goddesses as if I even know (thankfully I have my gf who is way more interested in mythology than me to help me)

I’ve only played like half of the Atlantis DLC after beating the game so whoopsie. I honestly really wanna replay everything now that I have this AU just so I can focus more on details and what I can yoink.

Characters

Diana

Art: 

Diana’s sketch-dump though she really needs a new one.

Diana in wheat field

Diana is the main protagonist of the story, but they pretty much both share the spotlight anyway. Her goal is to find out why she has certain powers (which I have officially decided, finally...) that aren’t exactly human. Since being a misthios was an easy way for her to travel and make drachmae, she chooses to do it while on their journey. Dammit I came up with her lore but as per the rules of this masterpost I can’t write about it until it’s out smh.. Ah I forgot that I already spilled that she is a goddess/demi-goddess (haven’t decided which yet) so yea that’s the Tea.

Described as very beautiful, there are rumors of her that state she is a pathway to Elysium (despite many people not deserving to go to Elysium). She is also known for her stoic face and a red bird that follows her around.

Diana is only found smiling with Akko and keeps buying Akko clothes despite her outer grievances each time Akko destroys something.

Diana was there with her mother at Chariot’s speech/performance.

Diana is skilled with any weapon.

Akko

Art:

Akko sketch-dump

Akko is a shapeshifter who travels with Diana across Greece in search for her idolized Chariot. Trusting both Diana’s skills and powers, Akko decides that Diana is the best choice to help achieve her goal as they adventure together.

Orphaned at a young age, Akko is, at first, very unfamiliar with how exactly to use her powers because there was no one around to teach her. She uses a bird most often because it is her first and most skilled transformation, but eventually learns to use stronger animals over time. Also eagle-vision is much more useful to Diana when they’re scoping the grounds anyway.

Like all shapeshifters, Akko has a symbol on her neck that signifies what she is. Due to the high prejudice against shapeshifters, Akko stays an animal to avoid being known, and also does not transform in front of others unless to kill them. If she has to be a human, Akko commonly wears a hood to hide her neck. 

Akko is one of the last shapeshifters to exist, and, despite Chariot being rumored to have finally been murdered, she still believes Chariot is alive. 

Akko was with her parents when they all attended Chariot’s final speech/show and here began her dream.

Akko can use a dagger if she needs to.

Side-characters

Akko’s Parents: Shapeshifters who were murdered when Akko was a young age.

Chariot: A shapeshifter who somehow had a voice and power that even normal people listened to. Akko idolizes Chariot because, despite the hate against shapeshifters, Chariot was well known and was an activist for shapeshifters despite the danger upon her head. Chariot mysteriously disappears one day for reasons unknown, and everyone but Akko assumes she was finally murdered.

Shapeshifters

Shapeshifters are defined as humans who possess the ability to transform to any animal at will. Unfortunately, because animals were seen as less than human, shapeshifters were defined as “punished by the gods” and so many decided shapeshifters needed to be removed from the world for sin. This causes a massacre of shapeshifters to the point that they are instead a rarity.

Shapeshifters do not transform with their clothes, and so either destroy them or lose them depending on their transformation.

All shapeshifters have a symbol on their neck which is what is used to find them. They can also be found by their human personalities/characteristics when they are an animal. 

If weakened, shapeshifters return to their human form and cannot transform until they are stronger.

Diakko

Art:

Meeting (Comes with a 500 word story!)

Misthios!Diana and Shapeshifter!Akko Sketch-dump

Diana and Bear!Akko

Fancy Diakko (the first continuity error lol)

Diana and Akko adventure together and do all of their quests together as a rag-tag chaotic duo. God I’m so excited for this section I wish I could make art FASTER but anyway:

They meet at about 17 years old but the main story takes place when they are 18+

The two get off to a wrong start when Diana saves Akko’s life. Because Akko is a shapeshifter, she’s high in value to kill probably by some cult idk but there is always a bounty on her head. When Diana saves her, Akko assumes Diana only did so to steal the drachmae from the original perpetrators, but Diana really just leaves her alone afterwards. Confused, Akko legit just starts tagging along LMAO she finds Diana interesting and so follows her and Diana’s just like what the fuck but eventually she gets over it. They become powerful assets to each other as Diana can now scope the skies with Akko and Akko is pretty much protected under Diana. Then when Akko gets much stronger Diana gets extra manpower and protection too. 

Akko enjoys staying in her human form to spend time with Diana.

Diana keeps buying Akko clothes just because it makes Akko happy (and also, despite Akko uncaring because her transformations are so frequent anyway, Diana doesn’t want her to be naked??)

Diana is easily persuaded by Akko and puts Akko’s interests first (feeds her first, considers what Akko would want, etc.)

Vas a hacer Fics sobre tu Odyssey Au?

Oh? 👀👀👀

desean un fic?

I was thinking about starting off with a webcomic first because I still have a lot of Lore that I need to come up with, but maybe once I have a general idea of all the characters and everyone’s motives/connections and a solid plotline then maybee,,, 

I’ll think about it some more. I might at least make a little oneshot of them meeting. 👀 or some more background at least if ppl are interested?

Diana and Akkoros

While living her life as a misthios, Diana searches for the answers pertaining to her origin and superhuman (described as “magical”) abilities along with Shapeshifter Atsuko, who commonly uses her powers for flight, but is not shy to switch to animals more suited for combat.

Been playing a lot of assassins creed odyssey so, well... 

If you know me I’m a bit of a freak for Goddess!Diana so I guess that's a spoiler for this random ass AU. Not sure what Akko is but since she has powers too then she’s also probably in those big leagues also.

IDk how to draw birds or dynamic poses so uhhh yikes haha

Why did I make this? I don’t know. Why does anyone make anything? Also I guess mental breakdown diana isn't that popular so lets shake things up a little

#lwa #diakko #diana cavendish #atsuko kagari #dianakko #lwa au #my art #assassins creed odyssey #little witch academia

[rawrroarart]

More in tune with her beast abilities, there are only three occasions that Akko switches back to her human form: if shes injured/weakened, if she needs to blend in/disguise to talk to other humans without giving away their infamy, and, finally, simply to spend time with Diana.

Akko doesn’t have clothes because her shape shifting abilities either tear them apart or lose them (and she’s an animal most of the time anyway) and also “That cost 30 drachmae!!!” (Though, Diana keeps buying her replacement clothes because it makes Akko happy and Diana probably carries around a lil bag for whatever outfit hasn’t been lost yet)
