CREATOR'S NOTE: These headcanons/ideas regarding the Kirby series are not exclusive to Nextgen or Itsquakey. These concepts can be used by others for their own creations and DO NOT require any kind of credit. Concepts can be twisted to whatever you'd like.
Welcome to week 2! Where I'll be redoing a lot of my older art here and going into more depth about large parts of this AU's rules. These include redos of old art and new art.
-THE CYCLE OF MATTER-
The cycle of matter exists uniquely within dark and light matter at the moment and exists as a form of balance within the universe. When a being dies, its body moves into deep space, fizzling away into a nebula which moves through the galaxy and collecting positive and/or negative matter near each planet it passes. Once enough of a type of energy is collected, it lands into the nearest planet and completes its reincarnation. If a nebula collects mainly positive energy, it becomes a light matter being like Meta knight, if not it becomes solely dark matter. In a rare instance where there is a even 50/50 spit of energy, a being like Gooey is born. Note that while the memory of the being is wiped with every reincarnation period, the soul remains as a new blank piece to go through life.
-LIGHT MATTER GROWTH STAGES-
Light matter have a much more detailed growth stage compared to dark matter, starting out as a small colorless lump and eventually growing into a colorful being with wings and horns. A light matter being can live well into 1,000 years before the cycle of matter or something else claims them.
-DEATH, REAPERS, AND NECRODEUS-
Necrodeus's character is basically entirely made up for this AU, carrying a legend that he was once a mortal man who then became the god the death a long, long time ago. He is responsible for both the creation of beings like the skullies and the soul seeking butterflies (Note that Mass attack did not occur in this AU, the deity of life stopped Necordeus before he could do anything stupid to kick-start Mass attack).
Necrodeus is tasked with looking after both the afterlife and making sure people die on their exact death dates. He uses soul seeking butterflies to make his job easier, as well as reapers which are souls fused with those butterflies. These reapers are either chosen by Necrodeus immediately then trained or a soul can train to then become a reaper, if Necrodeus approves (For example, Morpho and Papi were picked at death, Meta had to train for it).
Necrodeus is also capable of reaping souls that would usual go through a reincarnation period, taking their soul from their body which ends the cycle of matter for that being.
-KIRBY-
Not much really needs to be explained with Kirbs, the image does good work kinda sharing the basics. Kirby is a four positive matter blend, completely void of any negative energy, hence his power and why they're such a jolly fellow. It also kinda explains why Kirby cannot really feel complex negative emotions but can really feel complex positive emotions. Their ability to cycle through copy abilities and adapt to all sorts of climates is also due to their perfect blend of positives.
That's all for now! Look forward to next week with the Galacta/Morpho comic!
(Here's a Gala alt for reading all the way through)
Been thinking about Galacta knight and his use of fire. I've actually got a few headcannons about it if you want to have a read!:
So! I've actually got a whole system worked out for how I think magic in the Kirby universe might work, but let's just look at this goof first. *puts him under a magnifying glass*
To start, every mage has their own unique form of Energy magic. It's essentially their "default" manifestation of mana; the caster's most natural state of magic. It is generally seen as the safest type of magic to use, easily channeled through the body and moldable enough to use in a wide range of spells. As a bonus, its drawbacks are small, requiring a mage to burn through nearly all their mana reserves before they'd have to deal with any advirse effects. Galacta knight uses this type of magic for things like his energy swords and abusing the laws of nature by using his own mana as an ill advised substitute for sleep.
Some find their Energy magic limiting on its own, prompting research into other forms of magic to tie into their spells, such as elemental magic.
Fire magic, like all elemental magic, can be quite costly against its user if not used with caution. Every use raises the caster's body temperature, leading to sweating and eventual coughing. Abuse of the element will envitably cause minor to severe burns at channeling sights, depending on one's tolerance and overuse. It is important to time attacks and casts far enough apart from each other to allow the body time to cool down again. Some learn counter elemental spells to cut down on this recovery time—such as water or ice magic to counter fire—but such rapid heating and cooling is dangerous and harmful to the body.
Galacta knight is an incredible fire mage, having a natural aptitude for it, given his affinity. The vast majority of magic users are born, or soon develop, an affinity to a specific kind of magic. They're brought into the world with an innate understanding of that type, though it may take some time before they realize what it is. Galacta knight's being fire gives him a better tolerance to its effects than most. Even so, he is not immune, and manifesting blisteringly hot flames within one's core is, generally, unrecommended (nevermind setting your whole body alight in a blaze of glory). It's typical to see mage's using weapons or heatproof gloves as their channeling sights to help prevent self-inflicted burns, and Galacta will typically use his lance or shield for this. However, spells can often be charged and fired off faster and more powerfully when expelled through the body alone. That, and breathing fire looks cool as hell. Galacta figures a parched throat and dry eyes for a couple hours is worth the payoff. He's tried the whole counter element deal to cool off faster, but Water magic doesn't mesh well with him. He lacks the the serenity and steady flow at his core to understand it.
Also! As a fun little addition. If you're wondering why I ting his fire pink, it's because that's the color of his natural Energy magic. Elemental magic is still dependent on the user's own mana pool, with it's appearance changing from mage to mage depending on the individual's natural magic properties.
This is just my own thoughts I've scraped together into the doughy mixing bowl of my brain, of course. And, like dough, these thoughts are subject to change and grow later on. I've got some thoughts on the ins and out of How elemental magic, and the other types, are cast in terms of the technical (l say loosely cause it's literally magic) aspects of them, but I don't have all those details ironed out yet. My mind is a fickle thing, never wanting to settle on one headcannon or another. It's part of the reason I hesitate to write and draw longer character scenes and interactions, my opinions of them constantly shifting. But! I do think I'm getting to the point where I can keep them somewhat consistent in my head. Thus, my little fire magic spiel.

Loveable game.
what came to my mind after knowing there will be a new Kirby air ride
This is easily one of the greatest finales to anything.
losing yourself at the end of world party!
Ena: Dream BBQ game discussion and spoilers below :)
man. purge event huh. what a route! it has been established before that ena hates crowds (and probably parties) so her freak out over attending an illegal party was as to be expected but judging from her inner dialogue when talking to attendee near the entrance suggest she knows something others don't. although she was told by a taxi driver where they would take her so what gives lol~ shouldn't have taken the route. not like you need to complete the job by going there.
but it feels like there's something more to her reaction social anxiety? sense of danger? instinct? being hated by most?breaking the rules? maybe she hates dying...
cant wait to find out more about this thing /affectionate
