"Because of their poor tolerance for low temperatures, lumians have developed glacieration, commonly known as frost mode. (...) The body freezes over as it switches its priority from mantaining heat to creating adrenaline in the hopes of the individual being able to use said energy to ensure their safety. However, prolonged streams of adrenaline like this are poisonous, and if frost mode is not disengaged it results in death." Spirit Tamer, E. (3012).

[rev-pirate]

Okay okay so. Renchanting duo One Piece AU. LISTEN I am about to be So deranged about this. @liloinkoink and I have been going insane in the DMs. you gotta hear me out. The vision is very clear even if you dont care or know about op

So.

The most obvious thing in the world when it comes to making this a one piece au is that Ren is a pirate captain and definitely has a dog zoan type fruit. Now if you don't know what this is in one piece there are things called devil fruits which grant you powers but take away your ability to swim. They’re classed into three main categories and zoan types are fruits that allow you to transform into some creature. so Ren having a dog dog fruit model would allow him to shift between three states, full human, hybrid, and full dog. Devil fruits also have the ability to Awaken: unlocking a more powerful fourth form. which is dangerous for zoan types depending on the model type. often they lose their human consciousness and become full monster and require training the harness the form. And some zoan fruits are not what they first seem in their base form, eventually revealing themselves as something else. Now Ren ASSUMES for a long time he has a regular dog fruit model, perhaps a wolf, and that the off coloring of his coat only has his hair color to blame. We’ll come back to this.

Martyn is Ren’s first mate, the crew musician, and he also gets a devil fruit because Lew and I think it would be fun if he has the ability to just modulate his voice with it. He can mimic any sound, change his voice in any way he wants. It would be totally useless but in Martyn’s hands its the most insufferable fruit imaginable and he uses it to great effect. The crew hates him /affectionate.

Now you may be saying. The next most important thing to ask about a renchanting duo one piece au is the rise of the red king. How could you possibly adapt that?

let’s set the stage. (this is long so i put it under the break. there’s a TLDR at the bottom)

Ren and Martyn are cornered. They sent the crew away while they entered into a situation they knew there was a high chance they might not come back out of and that they didn't want to get the crew tangled up in. The worst case scenarios happen. They’re in a life or death situation with no way out and Ren is weighing his options. he’s recently had this. Hunch. you see. That there was more to his devil fruit than meets the eye. Martyn thinks he’s delusional. But Ren cant stop thinking about it.

There was this island on their travels where they heard a tale. A ghost story really. About how centuries ago there was a terrible evil man who could turn into a beastly wolf. And on the day they finally caught him, they brought him into the square to execute him, chopping off his head. The island breathed a sigh of relief that he would trouble them no longer. But the wolf man returned stronger to torment them night after night, spirit howling with rage and possessing the ones responsible for his execution and leaving them for dead. The chill of the afterlife following everywhere this creature went. He became the island’s curse. Nothing could kill him and when they returned to dig up his grave it was already torn up and empty. He really was a dead beast walking. It wasn't until they scoured the land to seize his head and destroy it that the beast was finally put to rest, freeing the island from the curse.

It was very likely that this was the work of a devil fruit. But what fruit? The only recorded fruit to ever bring someone back from the dead was the revive revive fruit. Ren starts scouring books about devil fruits for hints and traces. Trying to find inconsistencies between what fruit he does have and the wolf model fruit and seeking connections to other possibilities. But he never really finds any answers. He learns about another wolf model devil fruit user. It doesn’t make sense that there are two wolf model devil fruits. It’s impossible. The encyclopedias are just as confused as he is. Some that depict the exact shape of the fruit he had eaten never give it a model name, because no discernible dog breed matches his own. He still has a picture of the ancient art he saw of the wolf that had haunted that island. The brown and reddish coloring eerily similar to his own. He cant help but wonder.

They’re cornered. They don’t have long. It’s been Ren and Martyn since the beginning. And now here they are at what looks like the end. He asks Martyn to kill him. Not just kill him, behead him. They’re going to die anyway and if he Has to die he’d rather it be by Martyn’s hands. And Martyn is a survivor. Between the two of them, if Martyn kills Ren he has a higher chance of getting out of this alive. But if there is a Chance that killing Ren would awaken his devil fruit and bring him back, giving them to boost they need to get out of here alive together he wants to take it. Martyn says he’s insane. He’s delusional. Insert “You took me in when i was a lowly traveler...” “You showed me life” type speech. how can Ren ask him to kill him. There has to be another way out of this. There isn’t one. It’s do or die. And sometimes you’ve gotta do things that hurt. This is captain’s orders. an ultimate test of loyalty. Ren earnestly believes this is the only way Martyn will get out of this alive even if it fails. Martyn isn't sure he wants to without him.

It’s so fucked of him to ask Martyn to do this.

In the end he does. Martyn hates every second of it.

Thirty minutes go by. Ren is still dead. The blood is drying on Martyn’s axe, his hands, his cloths, the walls, the floor. The despair begins to really set in. He’s thinking about giving up what slivers of hope he has left. Ren hasn’t come back yet and it’s been long enough that he probably wont. It’s likely only a matter of minutes before Martyn is found by the marines closing in on them. And like Ren knew, Martyn is a survivor. So when they find him he tells them that he killed Ren in exchange for a pardon. That he’d been forced into a life of piracy and finally found his chance to escape it. He’d like to collect Ren’s bounty so that he can restart his life. He tell them he never saw Ren as a friend or his captain. They’re too horrified by the scene to question it.

As they take him away Martyn tries hard not to look back but when they turn into the hallway he catches a glimpse in his periphery of a couple marines stooping to collect Ren’s body and stops himself from yelling at them not to touch him. He says nothing. He cant break character now.

After they’ve brought Martyn in for questioning, interviewed him thoroughly, they find his story convincing. They agree to grant him a pardon and to pay out the money from Ren’s hefty bounty. They want to do it publicly. So that everyone knows he’s been pardoned. He doesn’t question this. He just wants this nightmare to end.

Martyn cant remember the last time he slept. Maybe not since the day before the mission went all wrong and ended with Ren dead on the end of his axe. He shoved every feeling he has about this into the deepest furthest depths of his mind. he has a character to play and he cant crack. he cant process. He just has to ignore it until he’s finally alone.

News reaches the rest of the crew via the newspaper. Captain Ren is dead, killed by his former right hand man Martyn. Skizz has been in charge while Ren and Martyn were away. He clutches the newspaper tight in his fist and tells the crew they’re setting sail. Martyn is being publicly pardoned, and it’s not far. Martyn’s betrayed them by committing the most heinous of crimes despite the years they had spent together. He must answer for this on the other end of his gun and then they can recollect the body of their dead captain to give him a proper burial. They don’t know that they’re walking into a trap set by the marines.

There is a precedent in the one piece universe for the bodies of notorious pirates being paraded around to celebrate their deaths. They do this with Ren and his head, knowing it will only stoke the anger of the already enraged crew of the late Captain Ren. They keep his body on display some distance behind the podium where Martyn is to be publicly pardoned in the city square. Martyn is going through the motions, still living the worst days of his life. Still compartmentalizing. What little hope he had of Ren coming back are swiftly dwindling away. It’s been days now. He still hasn’t slept. He cant grieve.

In the middle of the ceremony two gunshots ring out across the square. Martyn’s observation haki kicks in. (Observation haki being essentially foresight, predicting danger. sensing people’s auras, and the likes. I think Martyn would be pretty proficient at it) He barely dodges the first one in time and the second one hits him square in the shoulder. He is so. so tired. The crowd starts to panic. People are screaming. But it’s not just because Martyn has been shot. Fingers start to point beyond the podium to look behind them. The temperature in the square Plummets, the chill of the spirit realm seeping into the living.

Ren’s body begins to move. His head transforming into that of a wolf as it raises and settles back onto his shoulders, a ghastly spirit trail drawing them back together. His body then begins to change; a ghastly, huge, werewolf like creature, still covered in dried blood, taking shape before them. His powers awakened, the true nature of his devil fruit revealed. He has the Mythical Zoan Type Dog Dog Fruit Model: Inugami. The Dog God.

There’s chaos in the streets. Martyn cant believe his eyes. The lack of sleep is finally getting to him. There’s no way this is real. Ren starts attacking. People start running. There is only One thing Ren is consciously and instinctively aware of at this point, and it’s that someone important to him is in danger and they must be protected from the danger that is all around them. He kills the nearest thing that moves. The beast is entirely in control. Angry. Vengeful. The area around him so cold breath fogs in the air. Martyn explodes into action, throwing himself off the stage. Ren would hate it if he hurt civilians. He’s gotta be stopped. But more importantly Holy Shit Ren is Alive. He hasnt even processed beheading his own captain how is he supposed to process this?? People are running past Martyn, trying to pull him back to stop him as they run by. Martyn ignores them. He pushes against the fleeing crowd to run towards his Captain instead. Every part of him is warning him that in his newly awakened state Ren could kill him as soon as he’s in range. Part of him believes he’d deserve it for killing Ren first. But nothing is more important to him in this moment then ignoring that, ignoring the excruciating pain in his shoulder, blood still dripping from his finger tips, and gathering his captain up in his arms and reminding the beast that its name is Ren. Ren stills. His head detaches from his body, still floating in place, attached by a tendril of spirit energy as Martyn wraps his arms around his neck and pulls him down into a hug. It’s a bit much for poor Martyn at this point. he’s been running on fumes for days and all the pent up Everything that has been building up every since Ren pushed the axe into his hands and Oh God Ren’s head isnt actually attached. He faints. Around the square Skizz, Etho, and the rest of the crew are having another of one of the most confusing days of their lives. They showed up here to kill Martyn for the unforgivable, fight some marines, and reclaim their captain’s body. It seemed cut and dry. Skizz on a rooftop with a gun was the one that took the shots. He knows Martyn well. The first shot he knew Martyn would dodge and how, it was the second that was meant to hit him. What he didn’t expect was for the body of their captain to start moving. Someone is going to have a Lot of explaining to do and he’s going to want to hear it from Ren first. He didnt think that was something he’d ever get. Marines start to step out of hiding all around them, surrounding the square. Many step out onto the rooftop with Skizz. It’s then that Skizz realizes the marines were expecting them and it was a set up but they’d been too blinded by the news to see it. He cracks his knuckles and gets ready for a fight. Ren recognizes Martyn. And its then that things start coming back to him. Where is he? What is happening? Did it work? It must have. He’s alive. Is he though? People are screaming. Guns are being fired as the marines begin to surround the square. Oh god Martyn is unconscious. He has to get him to safety. He can work with this. So he cradles him up in his arms and runs. His ears pick up the voices of his crew within the cacophony. Martyn wakes back up after a couple minutes. He’s a little out of it. He can’t believe it worked. He cant believe Ren is alive. He tells him this. Ren really needs Martyn’s observation haki right now though so he really needs Martyn to keep it together right now. He takes a gun from a downed marine and hands it to Martyn so he can at least shoot over his shoulder or something. The chill that had surrounded Ren when he first reanimated still lingers. And once Martyn has got his feet under him again Ren eventually tests out a theory and discovers that his new abilities come with new limited ice powers. He’s going to have to work hard to hone them in. I figure if Brook’s revive revive fruit allows him to channel the chill of the spirit realm because of his connection to death than so can Ren’s and I am obsessed with that. Eventually they’re back on the ship, remaining stragglers of the crew still alive rounded up to safety, and they’re setting sail. Ren’s back in his human form too tired to even stand but he’s still shouting orders. Etho’s manning the canons. They’re blasting their way to the relative safety of the open ocean. Martyn passes out again as the adrenaline leaves his body and the last several days catch up with him. As soon as they have a second to breath Skizz is demanding an explanation for what happened from Ren while the rest of the crew watches on. He clears up the situation, taking all the blame on himself. When Martyn wakes up a day later, Skizz apologizes for jumping to conclusions. There are no hard feelings. Martyn probably would have done the same. And Yeah. that’s what we’re at and I’m absolutely deranged about it. Anyway TLDR: Ren has a mythical zoan type fruit model: inugami. It presents as a normal dog model zoan fruit most of the time. In the event a user of the fruit is beheaded, it reveals its true nature as the mythical inugami fruit. This is information suppressed about the df. Ren finds out about the possibility from a ghost story. In a dire do or die situation Ren asks Martyn to behead him in the hopes that it might be enough to save them by awakening his fruit. Eventually Martyn acquiesces to his captain’s orders. The awakening doesn’t happen immediately as Ren had hoped. Martyn is able to use killing his captain to get out alive when the marines close in on where they’d been hiding. The marines parade Ren’s body as they do with notorious pirates and they hold a ceremony to pardon Martyn for killing Ren. Martyn gets shot during the ceremony, Ren reanimates into his awakened form and is out of control. Martyn is able to bring him back to himself. They eventually escape with the crew and explain to them what happened.

PLEASE tell us more about the pride au. i need to know so many things. what does the renchanting beheading scene look like? what beasts does joel tame for his wolfpack? do you have any specific scenes in mind you’d like to share? this au is so fun i can’t wait to see more!

I would love to!! Ohhh I think instead of axe Ren would simply told Martyn to go for his throat and just bite. Haven't really thought about this scene in au before

As for Joel. You know how in "The Jungle Book" Shere Khan had some power over Jackals, same situation here. Big kitty ruling over wolves. They are simply like minions (Geraldine of course is a special favorite lil doggy, not just a minion)

I just ask you to watch any Ren an Martyn interactions with hyenas in mind This role fits them too well. That's the scenes that live in my mind rent free. They are so goofy and silly

ALSO OOOOGH I stumbled across "Tonight we strike" clip from some new Lion King series

And omggggg I would die to see animatic with hyena Ren in it. The King singing about The Red Winter and his plans!!!

i will give you a mr goodtimes introduction from another renchanting au

“Why, hello there!” the man behind the table says. He’s dressed a lot less colorfully than his tent, which is saying something considering the colors he does wear—Purple and black robes, sporting accents of reds, yellows, and greens. Shining crystals hang across his chest, and a feather dangles from his ear.

A large, rounded wooden staff leans against a poll, and dozens of crystals and bottles dangle from strings strewn across the tent. Something bubbles, though Martyn can’t place the sound, nor can he see the source among the piles of books and shimmering glass. 

He smiles when Martyn enters, his expression stretching out a large slash across his nose.

Oh, Martyn thinks, He’s definitely a scam.

OK SO

hermitcraft x empires x dsmp x life series crossover superhero au, but it's pure crack.

Keep the dsmp hero/villain/vigilante group style names like Dream Team, SBI/Syndicate, because I like them and they are applicable.

But since the other two are season based, you combine the past seasons ideas and characters. For example: Wither Rose Alliance but Gem has fire/sun related powers (but still a giant hat).

Either way, new time vigilantes Benchtrio are trying to make a name for themselves in this 'hero' business. They are surrounded by major power groups like the Wither Rose Alliance, Boatem, Dream Team, The Syndicate, Octagon, Codfather Alliance, and a bunch more.

Also others like Hotguy and Cuteguy, The Copper King, The Three G's (Gaslight, Gatekeep, Girlboss), Soup Group, Renchanting, etc.

Yes, they cross team, who cares? It makes it funnier. The public isn't for sure, but they speculate.

Either way, each group own a massive district(s) each which reflect the server they are from and the style that comes with it. For example, Boatem has the combined styles of Boatem in HCS8.

Scar, Ren, Eret, Wilbur, and Schlatt or competing for President? Mayor? King? Leader? We aren't sure.

There is an Anarchy Organization run by Techno with the disguise of a book club. Grian joins.

Jimmy ends up dying (eventually respawning) and sets off a massive chain of events (classic canary)

Every month a bunch of them come together to play MCC under neutral ground.

Okay earlier i asked what nicknames scar should use for Grian in my mumscarian hero au. Overwhelmingly, people love “Songbird”! Which I’ll start folding into my fic along with other names I had picked out.

Out of curiosity (and crowdsourcing pet names for my fic), what nicknames should Scar use on Mumbo? Ive used “handsome”, and plan to use “Dear”.

Kingslayer AU: Chapter Seven

This one is very nice I think you will like it. I call this the “Scott accidentally makes friends” arc.

Scott had just returned from a boring mining trip. Thankfully it wasn’t netherite duty this time. He was looking forward to sitting down after putting everything away when he looked out the window.

Martyn was perched on top of the walls, he seemed to be writing something. Scott’s interest was piqued. It was just after nightfall and cold out. He wondered what the other man was doing as he quietly opened the door of the Renchanting base. It was one in the morning when he checked the clock. There was time to spare.

The world was silent save for a chorus of crickets. It had stormed the night before and a thin blanket of snow preserved the land in tiny crystals. Scott did his best not to crunch the ice beneath his feet as he approached the ladder strung over the high walls.

Looking up, he saw that the sky was clear and brilliantly lit by the stars. A third quarter Moon hung in the air. Obfuscated by the only bank of clouds in the night sky.

He climbed.

As Scott approached the top, he wondered what he was even planning to do. He was going to talk to Martyn, then what. The whole Red Army was still walking on eggshells around him. Of course he didn’t mind. No, he wasn’t supposed to. He was a spy.

That’s what he told himself to sleep better at night.

Yes, ever since he’d started “intermingling” with the Red Army he had grown to admire their friendship. Not between himself and them so much as between each other. It was refreshing. Scott caught himself smiling along with their jokes, tapping his foot to the beat of whatever song was on the radio.

He didn’t dare laugh, or start a conversation, that would be out of line for him. Not yet. Not right now. When tensions were still so high.

Scott poked his head over the top of the wall. Ever so slightly, glancing at the deserted surroundings. He ducked down just enough so that Martyn wouldn’t be immediately aware of his presence. Still contemplating whether or not he was making a good decision.

“You know, if you’re aiming to be sneaky you should really think about investing in a hat,” Martyn’s voice shook Scott from his thoughts.

It also shook him from his perch on the ladder. He jumped in surprise and threw his hands up, conveniently forgetting about the rung he was holding onto.

“Well, this is it,” Scott’s mind said to him, at least his green life track record wasn’t too shabby.

A hand clasped around his wrist, suspending him in air with his feet braced on the ladder.

Scott stared wide eyed up at Martyn, who looked like he was contemplating letting him go. Then he pulled the other back to the ladder and sat back down.

“Uh, thank you,” Scott almost whispered. Pulling himself up onto the wall.

“Well it would be very hard to explain to Timmy,” Martyn replied.

“Jimmy,” Scott corrected, still looking at his feet.

“Timmy,” Martyn said back immediately.

Scott shut up.

“Major?,” Martyn looked over at him. Scott’s head snapped to attention.

“Jesus! Are you possessed?” He asked.

“No. I’m fine,” Scott assured. He didn’t want to admit to himself that the Hand made him nervous.

Martyn laughed at his expense, “calm yourself Major,” he clapped him on the shoulder.

Against his best interest Scott flinched a bit. Trying to laugh off his discomfort.

“What brings you out here in the middle of the night?” Martyn changed the subject.

“I- uh. I saw you up here,” Scott scooted a bit closer, swinging his legs over so that he was facing the same way as the other man. He looked over to see what Martyn was working on.

A book with plain pages was splayed across his lap, the page open was about halfway through the well loved sketchbook. The first half’s papers were crinkled and discolored from use. On the open canvas was a few disconnected sketches of figures that Scott didn’t recognize. Smudges and erase marks scattered the page.

“What’re you drawing?” Scott asked. Aiming to redo the icebreaker.

Martyn held out his art book so the other could see better, “these are just some sketches of people I used to see on TV. That’s Metal Man. I’m certain he wasn’t actually called that; but I can’t remember his real name,” he explained.

Further down the page was “Scarlet Witch,” then there was a drawing of Ren that neither of them mentioned.

Scott pointed to the last drawing, a bust of a superhero-looking man, “that one looks like you,” he observed.

“Mm, maybe a little?” Martyn replied with a bashful inflection.

“Yeah that’s totally you. He even has the little swirly thing on the chest,” Scott said. Martyn made a dismissive gesture.

“Aw come on. Like you never wanted to be a superhero,” he replied quietly.

Scott giggled. He wasn’t making fun of Martyn. It was just funny, a little, to see the Hand of the King up here doodling cartoons.

“I usually come out here to draw the sky. It’s different every night, always pretty,” Martyn flipped the page back to reveal a drawing of the night sky.

It took up two pages, landscape style, entirely pencil. The scenery even included some landmarks like the very top of Big B’s base. Scott noticed that Martyn’s fingers were covered in excess graphite from blending out the stars.

It was beautiful.

“Helps me umwind,” Martyn flipped a few pages forward to a blank spread, “you should try it,” he suggested as he put the sketchbook in the other’s lap.

Scott sat cluelessly. Staring at the page when he was handed a pencil.

“I’m no artist. Not like you are,” he tried to pass the supplies back but the other refused.

“Whatever you want. It doesn’t have to be the sky, it doesn’t have to be anything recognizable,” Martyn encouraged.

Scott nodded. He adjusted his grip on the pencil and positioned it above the page. It stayed there motionless while he thought.

Martyn had grabbed his hand on that ladder. He let him sit next to him while he was completely vulnerable, trying to get away from reality on top of the wall as long as he could. Martyn showed him pieces of his world. The world the way he saw it, the way he chose to preserve it. Remember it.

He shared it without question and now he was telling Scott to do the same. Show him a bit of his reality so he could understand.

This was a leap. Scott knew it, straight out of his comfort zone; and there would be no turning around, but something in the back of his mind screamed that he couldn’t keep hiding from people.

So a line showed up on the paper, followed by another. Scott pulled the image out of his mind and funneled it through the pencil, the foreground and then the background. A landscape that shaped itself across the whole page. There were mountains fading into blue against the skyline, he remembered, a river with a house on one of its banks.

A floating mass of land in the sky with vines hanging from the bottom, and a building on top.

Martyn didn’t say anything. It was like he wasn’t even there. Scott started drawing a figure to occupy the space. Reaching deep into his mind to see their face. Their faces. Soon instead of one person there was two, then three, then four. He drew every attribute and detail that came back to him.

Twelve people. He didn’t want to forget them.

When Scott finished he put the pencil down next to him. So Martyn knew he was done. He held the page up to study what he’d made, looking for anything he may have forgotten.

“That’s pretty cool,” Martyn complimented him.

“Really?” Scott asked.

“Yeah, I like that dude. The one with the wings,” Martyn pointed to where Scott had drawn a man gliding through the air with huge wings, holding onto his striped hat.

“I don’t remember his name,” Scott admitted. Mostly to himself.

“He had a name?” Martyn asked.

“They all did. I can barely remember their faces,” Scott replied, running his fingers over each of the people he’d drawn. An ugly feeling of guilt made a home in his chest.

“It’s a lovely picture,” Martyn said after a few seconds. He took the book from Scott and ripped a chunk of the pages out, “here,” he held them towards Scott. Including the one he’d been drawing on.

Scott was shocked that the other had desiccated his art book so quickly, but took the pages. He may as well.

“Use em’ however you like. I have plenty more,” Martyn instructed. He clapped Scott on the back again.

Scott flashed him a smile, hoping he didn’t look too much like an idiot, “Thank you,” he said.

“I have to go,” Scott jumped quickly back onto the ladder. He made it a few rungs down before pausing and returning to the top.

“Sorry for kicking you in… You know,” he apologized.

Martyn threw his head back in laughter, “thanks Major,” he replied.

“Bye,” Scott responded. He descended the ladder quickly and jogged to the exit of Dogwarts, fumbling with the doors and then trudging down the hill to make way for his flower forest.

“Remember to get a hat!” Echoed from behind him.

Scott turned around momentarily and nodded to Martyn on the wall, then continued into the trees.
