You want dragon AU asks? Oh, boy. I deeply apologize in advance for the list lol.
Is everyone a dragon?
What are the specialties of each dragon?
Can you do a size comparison chart (based off the fact that Atem is a fuck-ton bigger than TKB)?
World setting (mythical land/ancient Egypt/etc)?
Free space to add whatever else you really want to share because life appears to have a personal vendetta against me atm so I want to drown myself in someone elses AU.
OHGOD LOADED QUESTION!! I WILL TRY MY BEST TO ANSWER
not everyone is a dragon! there are also humans and half-dragons in their world. they have a pretty low global population in comparison to others but theyre not rare per se. (not sure if or how many other fantasy races there are, havent really thought about it)
by specialties im guessing you mean skills/elemental powers? they arent 100% set in stone yet for everyone but for the main cast:
atem: [based on slifer] a god-class dragon, his domain are the skies and he feels most at home there. he can control the weather in his region, both intentionally and subconsciously (cue weird weather patterns when hes going through stuff). atems element is lightning but he can manipulate water and air pressure to a minor degree too!
yugi: [based on gandora] well-meaning but unintentionally destructive. his signature rays at full power can vaporize anything but require an insane amount of energy, so he only uses it as a last resort move since he will pass out right after. i affectionately call him a little nuke.
ryou: [based on CoH/angels] doesnt really have an element but hes venomous. he can either spit his venom like a cobra or turn it into pressurized steam. in low concentration it will make you trip balls and/or paralyze you but a high dosage will grant you a slow and painful death. hes also well-versed in shady magic.
amir: [based on ra] hes a bit of an anomaly, since hes an artificial god-class dragon. his element is fire(?), at his strongest capable of making a small sun to collapse into a black hole. amir can also super heat his surroundings, which is how he scorched half of the continent when he escaped containment... he also grows obsidian-like crystals on his body that he uses for both offense and defense.
malik: [based on ra] a past(?) god-class dragon, his element is true pure light that he can turn into weapons or use to set things on fire. he doesnt use his element often since its taxing and triggers a lot of old traumas. he prefers to use his "superior tactical knowledge" and "overwhelming charisma", to uh... various levels of success.
bakhura: [based on diabound] born non-elemental but developed the ability to shoot concentrated plasma out of spite and pure unadulterated wrath. summoned satan and wiped out a whole kingdom. fought god and tied. managed to survive the following: getting shot out of the sky (multiple times), a few mile drop with broken wings, being impaled and then sealed away in a magical prison for a very long time. i think that counts as a special skill.
i will draw a proper size comparison chart for both their humanoid and dragon forms at one point. im still working out their heights so i cant give you any exact measurements for the humanoid forms
as for the dragon forms i can give estimates!
in that one drawing atem isnt even fully grown yet, he gets at least 4 times bigger. he was still a teen during the calamity!
cue shitty doodle!
amir is THE biggest dragon in this au tho, dwarfing even a full grown atem. he towers over mountains, literally. luckily hes incapable of shifting whenever he feels like it or the whole world wouldve been burnt to ash by now. he did once and half of the continent is now a glass desert.
malik wouldve come in second in terms of height if he could shift at all.
yugi is a few feet taller than bakhura. still on the short size for his species.
ryou is the smallest. hes just a bit shorter than bakhura.
as for the setting, its a mythical land! im still working on the lore and worldbuilding but continent where the main story takes place is inspired by ancient egypt! im trying to avoid the generic european medieval fantasy (and its tough sobs)
cant think of anything else atm (its late as hell) so heres a shot of dragon atem instead!
this is the longest answer ive ever given to an ask lmao
thank you sm for the question!!! <3
