Hold on-

So the "Halfworld Story" disappeared from Rocket's lore page. Instead a story called "Deepest Bonds" was unlocked. Idk if it got renamed or if we'll see "Halfworld Story" later on but in any case we still got some more Rocket lore! So Marvel Rivals Rocket has cybernetics that are fully integrated into his biological body systems, and if the cybernetics are damaged he won't be able to function (like full on risk of death). We also get a brief reference to his creator, but they're not identified. Rocket is unable to remember anything from his earliest days of creation.

Oh and most exciting of all WE GET A LYLLA MENTION!

I’m not super well versed in the world of tarot, so forgive me if any of my interpretations of these themes is slightly off in some way! But I hope you enjoy😄❤️

I don't have them drawn out so I am using just a height chart to show the difference between them and then comic and MCU rocket.

Order as followed:

Celestial Rocket - 127 cm / 4'2ft

Comic Rocket - 121.92 cm/ 4'0 ft

Redesign - 101.6 cm / 3'4 ft

MCU Rocket - 83.82 cm / 2'9 ft

Behold! My rocket plush that I made today. He's so fuggly and funny to look at

Todays topic: My Cosmic Rocket Raccoon/Celestial Rocket (name still in progress)

If y'all dont know, this is what I have designed for him. No set design for him yet.

I made this design in the middle of the night while looking at cosmic ocs. As you can see, his design keeps changing. That's only bc I dont have a set design in for him yet. Moving onto other parts of his design that remains constant.

He has a crown that emits light. There is no explanation for this besides it looks cool.

He always has a glow behind him that follows the outline of his uncovered limbs. His eyes also glow bright. This stemmed from the blackhole ocs I kept seeing on pintrest while searching.

He always has a blanket with him bc space is cold.

Minor details I like to point out:

This section is for the art and things that arent noticible due to gradients.

His mask has changed from the default one into a more pointed one. This has no real reason besides style.

He actually has the fur color and pattern of a melanistic raccoon.

(Look at them)

That means his fur is a naturally very dark brown/almost black. I like making Rocket variants with different coat colors.

He is actually watching over his friends in my art whenever he has that blue orb. In a close up of his face in the most recent art I added dried tear marks while he watches over the milano. Idea was given to me by @sincerelykarai

Lastly, he does have whiskers and a mouth. I just forget to draw the whiskers. His mouth is hidden mainly cause I don't wanna draw it + it makes for a cool idea that he was silenced.

Backstory?

I got nothin. Dude pulled some shit, gained cosmic powers, and now is a being that can watch over his friends. Honestly, I had the idea of throwing in a Celestial Peter to whatever this world is. All I know is Galactica exists in this world.

I'm thinking for his backstory maybe he used to be a mortal and similar to his MCU backstory he thought against the High Evolutionary and was killed in the process but instead of dying he was revived to be a Celestial (kind of like a Maui from Moana type shit-)

And basically Ego (Quill' dad) gave Rocket a new life as a fellow God and was like "Yo I saved your life now in your debt to me and you have to look after my son in every timeline" and Rocket's like "wtf why" but Ego simply guilt trips and gaslights him because in my eyes we DESPISE ego.

I honestly like your idea of how he became a celestial with ego and all, but he honestly died a different way. Rocket died while stopping a galaxy wide threat with the rest of the guardians through self-sacrifice that basically did a time reset/jump into other universes. This basically resets his memories/locked them away. Now, here is where I can put your ego idea to use.

Ego, now being reborn from the timeline reset, remembers most things and knows Rocket is a threat. However, how are you supposed to deal with a raccoon smarter and quicker than you? You make him believe he's on your side and slowly make him loyal to you. That's what he did with Rocket when he first became a celestial. From there, Rocket was treated semi badly till he was able to escape. He basically was like Mantis the entire time. The funny thing is that Rocket left right before the guardians landed on the planet. If he stayed a while longer, he would have met them again.

Now, at some point in his story, he meets Loki (the god of stories version) who restores his memory and Galactica, who serves as his only friend for a long while. Both become the reasons he can branch into different timelines but also have a place outside of space and time. Rocket is trying to find a way to reset to put himself back with the guardians but is failing every time.

(lots of these are pre vol. 3)

groot leaving the pot was a very big day on the milano. they hastily put together a big party to celebrate, and everyone had their attention on groot for a while-especially rocket.

quill and rocket argue over small stuff all the time because they are Both so stubborn. both of them have be right even if it’s something totally subjective.

mantis scrapbooks, and taught nebula how to do crafts. now nebula is obsessed with making little bracelets but doesn’t give them away because she’s scared of being judged.

it took drax the longest to understand groot. the first thing he understood groot say was groot asking for a zargnut. (post celebration drax gave him half of one)

rocket built his own pair of headphones to listen to music while quill was sleeping and he was up building stuff.

rocket is a major insomniac, when he does sleep he has night terrors. (this was remedied post vol 3)

quill taught groot how to dance when he was a sapling.

gamora and drax are sparring buddies, they spar as much as possible to train. gamora wins most of the time.

all of the guardians have some level of ptsd. like they’ve been through so much they are all traumatized.

rocket, autistic. quill, autistic. nebula, also autistic.

quill loses shit all the time, so rocket makes installs trackers to put on all of his stuff.

rocket and tony had a joke rivalry when he was on earth, where tony and rocket constantly tried to see who could make the better tech.

gamoras fav genre is metal, drax prefers R&B, rocket loves dad rock (as said here by me) but listens to a lot of other stuff, groot listens to jazz, because that’s what he grew up listening to, and quill genuinely listens to anything and everything
