Bet you can’t guess my favorite character

First batch of artfight attacks! I’ve got a bunch of these so I’ll roll em out over the next week or so.

In order: Chester for @coziroses, Violet for @owlfacenightkit, Carter for @its-sherboi, Bonez for @LYNX3000, Melo for @mingmog, and Jake for @lychirose

The wing cap if it was cool

One with the original colors and one based on a phoenix cuz I think that fits Mario really well

PRESIDENTIAL ALERT: the girls are fightinggggggggg

Featuring Thirteen, the design I came up with for what became Darcy during the hiatus between s2 and s3

Trans Mario. That’s it that’s the post

Y’know, we’ve seen Luigi cry a lot, but I don’t know if we’ve seen Mario cry. He deserves a good cry after everything he’s been through </3

I love your designs for Anne on Earth! Her trying to hide it all makes sense. (I wonder how many times she had to pretend her horns were cosplay…)

So, since Anne and the Plantars do end up going back to LA like in canon, I assume that means they still have to charge the box… What does charging the stones mean for their magic in this au? Do they still lose their altered features after charging the stones (Marcy’s Antennae, Anne’s horns and glow, etc.) or are they permanently a part of them now?

Actually, that is another question that comes to mind… I notice Anne has a constant blue glow to her hair and eyes in your design, but Marcy and Sasha seem to lack a similar glow, and Sasha doesn’t seem to have any changes to her appearance at all (outside of her berserk mode) Is there a reason for that? Just different ways of expressing the power or?

And last question: you mentioned that Andrias is known to be a tyrant in this au, but is really reclusive and not doing much right now… can you elaborate on that? Because that sounds like a super interesting part of the au. Like, what led to him being known as a tyrant? How does he maintain his power as King as a recluse when he’s so disliked? What caused him to go down a different route than Canon?

(Limiting myself to three questions at a time because I’d be here all day if I tried to ask all the questions I have at once haha)

That’s something I have to think about but more about tbh heheh. I think they’d keep the physical attributes they gained but their magic would be weaker when the stones get charged.

Yeah that’s mostly just their powers expressing themselves in different ways. Anne wears her heart on her sleeve so her magic is more visible (and her magic is quite powerful.) Marcy’s magic is largely concentrated in Marbles (her staff) as almost an entirely separate entity. And Sasha’s is hidden away until she needs it most, her rage, in which it presents itself fully (glowy hair, eyes, etc.) And that’s also partially me referencing what each of their betas looked like. Some of Anne’s early designs showed her with blue hair so I incorporated that partially into my design.

And he’s what I got for Andrias so far: He became incredibly bitter after Barrel and Lief left and never really lost that. He would annihilate anyone who opposed him, and he had access to technology no one else really did, so people feared him. He’s thrown out many of his closest allies within the castle, Olivia among them. So many, in fact, that they formed their own small town on the outskirts of Newtopia. This town is near where Marcy first lands, actually, as here she didn’t land inside the confines of Newtopia. Without the box, much of Andrias’ technology couldn’t work anymore, so he lost much of his interest in it (or so it seems, anyways.) He never gets that connection with Marcy that softens him back up. However, when he finds out about the trio of humans with magical powers, he takes it upon himself to find and kill them. He may have a run in with Sasha that brings back a side of him that’s more merciful (even if it is largely a facade so he can backstab her later.)

Andrias is mostly a recluse due to being head of a cult that still follows the Core. He still runs the kingdom, he just has other newts carry out his orders for the most part (they have to display undivided loyalty to him or he’ll toss them out of the city like he did with Olivia.) But most of the time he is trying to regain contact with the Core and do what he can to reawaken it. More Core lore and old art here:

Hopefully that was at least semi coherent haha. You are welcome to ask more questions always!!! Anyone is!
