Whose Bloodied Locks No Crown Would Bear

My father was in a fine mood that morning. Both of them were, although when it came to Da, you could not tell as much from looking. He was able to appear quite grave, when he wanted to. He was always more serious when we were away from home, at Buckkeep. He did not smile so openly there, as he always did at Withywoods.

Haven’t made much art this week, but here’s some concept art for an AF (and probably Alexmis) AU I’m playing around with!

It’s Siren Artemis!

I give you.. This

ANYWAYS I GOT AN AU I WANNA SHOW OFF—

So this was spawned from when I was chatting with a friend over on discord while she was doodling the points and she asked:

“Wait, is Mino’s Symbol his face or some type of visor??”

And whoops this came into existence.

It’s not the “something” au it’s a Hero AU, where the points are normal people with extra power granted to them by their symbol/core. Their symbol on their faces are now holographic visors, which tell them details of the world around them as well as identifying enemies n such. Cores grant abilities similar to the canonical points and then some—

V2 (Verfection/Second Star Savior) is the newest recruit, their core being a multi-purpose core and able to use multiple abilities at once such as shield and star shooter. They’re also the adopted child of the team’s leader, Cyalm, so they were granted a semi-experimental core after V1’s “betrayal.”

V1, known as Stratosfear, was a member of this team until granted their current core, which was an experimental core, and incredibly unstable. They betrayed the team by destroying a part of Sky City (replaces Sky Emporium) seemingly on purpose. Favors the “Scorpio” function.

V3 is a member in the Future, being the one required to retrieve the failing cores of the heroes in the future, since the cores have then taken over the heroes’ bodies and using them as puppets in order to survive past their expiration date.
