"The name Sonic is long forgotten, lost to time." "Do you wish to ruin your future as well?"

Funny little Wuwa AU Reference shot is from Wuthering Waves Story Cinematics | Dawn Arrives

This setting's lore is pretty much the same as the ongoing story in the game. Swap Leviathan for Dark Gaia, and Imperator for Light Gaia. Being too deeply integrated with Wuwa's grander lore with multiple godly beings of oppositioning forces would be impossible, so let us just keep it confined and fun and not look too deep into the whole ass setting. Below posts are gonna be a gargantuan lore dump that I try to connect to STH as much as I could. I might miss and leave some information holes because it's a pretty huge lore to begin with. And sonadow tag is relevant. I want to have Shadow as the Rover and have these two be the endgame. --------------

Sonic's lore in this AU.

Now I'm gonna starting referring to Imperator as Light Gaia, and Leviathan as Dark Gaia, as well as resonators as chaos users and sentinel resonator as chaos master so there will be no confusion for non-wuwa fans who wanna read more.

Sonic is a chaos user.

Years ago, during the Light Gaia festival, Sonic drank too much wine and became extremely drunk. He picked up a guitar and started leading a crowd with his music. Once he finished his numbers, Light Gaia was impressed and crowned him the Laureate of the festival, giving him a laurel.

The Order of Light Gaia recruited him immediately and started molding him into a perfect leader of the Order. There was no one better to lead their people other than the person who won the favor of their god. They also were expecting someone like him since the prophecy left behind after first Dark Tide.

After his training, Sonic was given a new name called 'Arthur'. A holy name for him to as the emissary of Light Gaia.

[Reading on Light Gaia and Dark Gaia in this AU before continuing is adviced]

During Sonic's reign, the struggle between Dark Gaia and Light Gaia reached its peak. Dark Gaia managed to release the Dark Tide.

Dark Gaia having merged with Light Gaia gained knowledge about chaos master chose Sonic to become its chaos master during the Dark Tide.

Sonic gained his werehog form after that but continued to defy Dark Gaia's will for years.

During that, Sonic also used Dark Gaia's newly gain ability to split and split the 'Sonic' part of himself from the 'Arthur' part. The 'Arthur' self is to contain the Dark Tide and Dark Gaia while the 'Sonic' self is to seek for the way to defeat it once and for all.

Some points on Wuwa lore for those who doesn't know about the game.

In Solaris-3, everything is consisted of or made from frequency, as in music, sound, etc. I equate chaos energy to it in this AU.

In each region, there are two opposing godly beings that fought to either destroy or protect civilization. The Sentinels are the ones who protects, and the Threnodians are the ones who destroy. In Rinascita, the region that I base the AU on, there's Imperator, who protects the civilization and Leviathan who seeks to destroy it. This is where I thought of how Light Gaia and Dark Gaia could also work in the AU.

In Rinascita, the Order of the Deep acts as a representative of their sentinel. In this AU, they are the Order of Light Gaia.

As a Sentinel, Imperator can select one mortal to resonate with as an anchor to the world, who will be called a sentinel resonator. This is the law of the universe and should not be broken.

Imperator has the ability to control space and split.

Leviathan has the ability to merge and assimilate.

The Dark Tide is Leviathan's mean of destruction. The Dark Tide can warp those it touches into montrous beings and assimilates them.

There are two occurences of the Dark Tide.

The first Dark Tide was defeated by Napoli II, and on his death bed, he gave a prophecy about the Blessed Maiden. Sonic is considered the blessed maiden in this AU, which would be blessed knight or something.

Resonators are people with mutation who can manipulate frequencies. So, in this AU, these people are chaos users.

A sentinel-chosen chaos user will be called chaos master. The selection process is called The Second Awakening in Wuwa.

Now I'm gonna starting referring to Imperator as Light Gaia, and Leviathan as Dark Gaia, as well as resonators as chaos users and sentinel resonator as chaos master so there will be no confusion for non-wuwa fans who wanna read more.

In order to figure out the way to defeat Dark Gaia, Light Gaia let it assimilate with him, and let it gain knowledge about the right to have a chaos master.

Dark Gaia merged with Light Gaia, not knowing about the plan.

They are now counted one being, just with two consciences at war.

Dark Gaia decided to choose Sonic as its chaos master, which was a mistake. As a chaos master to a Threnodian is nothing but a shackle.

Light Gaia split a part of his chaos energy and shaped it into a sword to give to a chaos user as a failsafe.

The sword was given to a family to perform divine trials that force a chaos user to go through a second awakening with the sword.

Because the chaos master awakened from it will become Light Gaia's chaos master, and as Dark Gaia already had Sonic. The universal law that dictates one sentinel to have only one chaos master would be broken and then destroyed Dark Gaia, Light Gaia, and Sonic.

In that family, Rouge would be the one who was finally able to resonate with the sword. However, she gave up the second awakening energy and gave it back to Light Gaia.

This allowed Light Gaia and Sonic to give a final push.

Another art for the fanfiction I’m writing: Winterseer’s Saga

Our Winter Pooka has got a redesign for his markings! And look at that spear! I’ve put more emphasis on his agility through the lower body markings, and I tried to unify his face markings more, so they wouldn’t seem too muddled. I’ve also put more tutfs around the bases of his ears. I put in a back view to show how long his hair fur(fur hair? head fur? you get me) is. I got to learn and use new techniques in this drawing session and it was so much fun! 

The short spear is an inspiration from Urska’s Warpike and Boreus’s Chainblades, as well as many others; but it’s primarily from those two weapons in Dauntless.

This is an art for my Rise of The guardian fanfic Winterseer’s Saga.

I finally take time to put some detail on Hayle Winterseer. And I'm quite satisfied for now with these details. I'll settle with this one for now, but there are some changes I hope to make in the future.

I wanted to put details that are unique to Hayle and make him distinguishable from others. In Winterseer's Saga headcanon, winter pookas are the speed and agile type; thus, the bigger and longer lower body structure. There's longer fur to emphasize on their seasonal aspect. And Hayle decided to keep even longer fur on his head for braiding —something he picked up from observing the elves. His markings certainly will be redesigned in the future, though.

Most winter pookas in the hunting group prefer to use short weapons such as dagger or shortsword and a bow for range attack. But, Hayle prefers a short spear over said weapons due to the fact that he hates getting too close to his preys or enemies, and spear throwing feels much more controllable to him.

Please don't burn me for the bad spear art. I was at my limit. 😴😴😴 (I'll redesign it.)
