Your Curated Tumblr Experience Awaits!
Ok I kinda need help/thoughts on something
I have a lore on my avatar ( profile pic I drawn) that was caught in the 100 year Keyblade war, defending herself against the heartless and even the darklings with her magic, her sister (in arms),the one that taught her magic,died in her arms with her broken keyblade.
I want my avatar to become a sorta unverse/darkling hybrid ? or a mix of being overwhelmed with negative emotions and darkness naturally? You know, related to rage form, it is that moment she was able to wield a keyblade herself and then somehow managed to escape from the war/world( she gets turned back to normal but I’m still thinking of how she will overcome it,wield it ).
So any ideas/advice.
Ooh okay I see what you're putting down I see where you're going with this. It's a super neat idea and firstly; whatever I say here, you are God, okay? I can suggest and what I hope comes out of this is either something neat enough you really want to use it and make it your own, or one of these ideas makes you go "OH BUT WHAT IF I DO IT LIKE THIS INSTEAD--".
Your OC you take these potential concepts and you rip 'em to pieces for your own delight, k? <3 Anything said here is for you to turn into what You want it to be, not me.
So you have some inciting angst that's going to help you explain why there is an uncontrolled pull of Darkness there to begin with- a tragic death of a loved one, a comrade, someone whose presence haunts the narrative and that is delicious, good stuff- but now you need an inciting Something to 1. Make this a problem and 2. Make this a problem in a way that pursues the growth you want to see.
To me, it sounds like the growth you want to see is that eventual self-control, potentially owning this ala Riku or Vanitas. So we have a goal and we need to spark what brings this goal into play.
The residual affects of being so close to Kingdom Hearts naturally unbalances her Heart because with great power comes great consequences
The war itself - or even the magic responsible for making the Keyblade Graveyard into the empty shell of a World that it is- essentially acted in a way that forced some sort of reaction in your OC's Heart. Something that's either entirely unfixable (you cannot go back to who you were, you can only learn to accept who you are now) or gradually loses that affect over time (you must learn to accept that the past happened and let go of the anguish that controls you).
I like this concept and I'm definitely kind of viewing it in my mind as a sort of-- Anti/Rage or Vanitas Remnant kind of... we'll call it form. One this OC is stuck in, be that because of issues in the Heart or because again, there is an anguish there that she is not recovering from. There is a grief she is refusing to let go.
You have a few ways to play it from there. Are there other characters involved that help her return to herself? Does she need to rely on her own strength of will?
Dive to the Heart is your friend here, either with the added spice of Power of Waking if you want others involved, or her being trapped in a similar way to Aqua in the RoD. She may only really be partially aware of what her body is doing and being for some time, until she slowly begins to build that will again.
Initially the first return to herself is entirely forced by someone else, and she is terrified of it happening again. Because it does happen again. Because she feels reliant on other people to come back from it. Because the question is what happens when, someone isn't there? What happens when someone is there, but it isn't enough anymore? Huge hurt/comfort elements to be seen in taking this approach.
And lastly there is the Terra-Eraqus route where she is Literally being haunted by her sister (in arms), whose Heart stays with her and is trying to call out, but isn't heard for a very, very long time. This is a great way to go if you intend to really lean on just how important that relationship really was, it is the cause of the break, it is the reason for healing. It harms and heals in equal measure.
Hopefully some of this helps! You'll have to let me know what you come up with, or decide to go with!
Some lore I thought for my avatar in the kingdom hearts verse a 100 years ago
She was 11 when she arrived.
She doesn’t remember how she even got here.
only person that wasn’t able to summon
a key blade and was bullied for it, but also she was different in a weird way.
Estella was the one who decided to teach her magic to at least give my avatar some self defense.
Soon she became her only friend,her sister (in arms) my avatar also wanted to learn about apothecary since she was interested when Estella explained her expertise of flowers and plants.
She wondered if she can also use them to treat her wounds or even sickness.
Estella is the only one who even takes her to different worlds to help fend against darkness ( call part of training too).
True but Vanitas is also negative right?which from what I’ve remember is connected by entirely a separate thing from darkness ( i mean why unversed eyes are red not yellow like the heartless if he was pure darkness) so him having red eyes because he is also negativity, also makes sense but also he could have central heterochromia meaning he could have golden yet little red around his pupils or the other way round ( heck that what I was thinking sometime when mentally designing my Avatar but probably take years before I explain more on that because that changed completely) anyway I’m ramble pretty long enough about it, Vanitas having red eyes because is someway to connect himself with his unversed. I love Vanitas with red eyes as much as Ventus having green eyes.❤️❤️❤️❤️
*leans in close to the mic* Vanitas does not have Xehanort’s eyes. Exposure to darkness causes eyes to turn golden. Xehanort’s eyes were originally silver, as seen in dark road. As a being of pure darkness, Vanitas is the one character where his eyes were probably yellow from the beginning (excluding the LN of course).
Love something like this ❤️❤️❤️❤️

sighs dreamily thinking about the idea of ven’s darkness having at least partially told the truth about his will. sighs dreamily thinking about the recurring theme of ‘my friends are my power’ juxtaposed with ‘what he wished for was power’ (he actually wished for friends) (and being a union leader got him friends) (plus like. it got him to survive the fall of daybreak town). sighs dreamily thinking about them having some sort of symbiosis even before it later became truly part of him and a human with a heart (vanitas). sighs dreamily thinking about it doing what it did out of love for him or at least darkness’ twisted understanding of love. yayyy 🌸🌸🌸
Wait does that mean Ventus was 1st princess of light or I guess prince of light.
I don’t know I forgotten some things and I’m still confused
I know union cross makes a lot of sense in the kh lore (especially in ddd) but the fact that ventus was a person of pure light in the first place? And vanitas is not actually the darkness half of ventus? It’s just wrong?, meh? I can’t explain what I feel about that.
I’m still confused
What the difference between darklings and heartless to be honest?
I know darklings are fallen keyblade wielders
Yet sora became a heartless unless that what anti and rage forms really are but what really are the contrast and comparison as a keyblade wielder?
