#attlantis

I know that all the positive Alphas are going to have those glowing orbs we see Tikki with in the show, though protrayed in their own way.

So Graay is going to be holding them in his arms (he'll have four), surrounding him in the front, the orbs resembling the phases of the moon. He's going to have two tails and some sharp angled wings.

For Stellar I'm going to take inspiration from @deathbirby's art with the long cosmic space-like wings, and the orbs just surrounding him. He'll have multiple sets of arms coming from different portals around him as well.

Honestly for Vitaa I just love Deathbirby's version of her, because it looks so regal. The fluffy wings, the tuff of fur looking like a crown, and the green gems. Also Vitaa's orbs might be in the shape of different animals as well, like it's Life just flourishing around her.

I don't have anything particularly connecting the negative Alphas like I do the orbs with the positive, but I would like to have something similar.

For Shii everything will be in sets of four. Four wings, four arms, four eyes, along with a plague doctor's aesthetic with his beak/mask. Like in his small form his feathers will be wilted. Then again drawing from Deathbirby, he will have feathers surrounding his head like a hood, and a really skinny and withered appearance as well.

Prrysm is one that I honestly think will be nearly impossible to draw the way I truly want her, but as Chaos I think she'd want it that way. She's just going to be consistently shifting, never in a fully defined shape. I imagine parts of her body glitching in and out of existence, and just being a kaleidoscope of changing colors. She'll have uneven amounts of limbs and wings, all of different sizes, always changing. Just pure Chaos. I just imagine she'd be a headache to look at.

For Koree I always knew I wanted her to have just a big pair of empty eyes sockets. Just hallow and creepy, and along with other sections of her body missing. And then Deathbirby knocked it out of the park with the tendril shadowy wings, so I'll definitely add that to my version.

I don't have plans to draw every single kwami in a true form, but here's some ideas I have for a few of my other ocs:

Tyyto the Owl is going to have a completely blank face-- like no eyes, beak, or nose or mouth of any kind, just blank and white. Then the rest of her body is going to be cocooned by a dozen wings wrapped around her, hiding the rest of her form. A living Secret.

For Yuume the Sheep I'm imagining that he's going to be the fluffiest boy, his fleece being made of clouds that he's sleeping on, with shapes and stories appearing in the clouds as a manifestation of the Dreams around him. I know Yuume will also have ram horns in his true form, and I want his eyes to always be closed.

Then for Attlantis the Octopus I'm imagining a head a lot like Cthulhu or Davy Jones, with a mass of tentacles coming from his head. I also know that there will be many more coming from his body as well, each one representing an infinite number of choices and possibilities, just surrounding him. I think he'd have half a dozen eyes or so on his head, and maybe on other parts of his body, again just symbolizing Choice.

I would like to draw true forms for the Alphas, along with their merged forms, but that would probably be a future project if I do. Right now I'm focusing on finishing up drawing my kwamis (only six more!), diving into the fics for this AU, along with doing more art for the kaire and renlings.

In my AU it all depends on the individual kwami. Like I headcanon kwamis like Trixx and Wayzz to be aromantic, and they don't experience romantic attraction. Then I have kwamis like Yuume and Attlantis, who are very much in love and in a relationship. Nooroo and Duusu is another ship I like, Kaalki and Ziggy too, and Plikki of course.

I imagine that the Alpha Duos though have a bond all their own that humans and even other kwamis cannot comprehend. Something that could be compared to love, yet it is also something more. Something that comes from them being two halves of a whole, complete opposites, forever entwined since the universe came to be. Something they can't describe.

A really interesting idea, especially since Yuume's view of humanity actually wouldn't change, because Yuume has never really had an "evil" holder, per se. His dislike of humanity actually heavily stems from the Dreams he saw, hatred for the control humans had over kwamis, and viewing himself as superior to all other beings. If both he and Attlantis had good holders Yuume would still want a world for kwamis without humans. The only major change for Yuume's story would be his desires would only stay as Dreams, with no drive for action to act of them.

Attlantis would be the one whose story really changed. If he had only good holders he would have a lot more hope in humanity, and still enjoy having holders. The city of Atlantis would still be standing, other kwamis would't be angry with him, and he'd never be isolated, which means his path to becoming close with Yuume would have never happened.

Yuume is the leader of the Renegades, with Attlantis as his right hand kwami.

For most of their existence the two weren’t particularly close. They came into existence at different times and never really had a reason to bond until they were assigned to the same Miracle Box. Yuume was one of the kwamis most wanting to come to earth and get a Miraculous, while Attlantis was interested in doing so.

After Attlantis tricked Plagg into sinking Atlantis Attlantis found himself being isolated from the other kwamis, so to avoid the loneliness he would linger near Yuume’s sleeping form for company. (Yuume spends most of his time in the Miracle Box sleeping to explore the world’s Dreams.)

During this time Yuume was becoming disturbed by the twisted Dreams of humanity he was encountering, and often sought the closest one for comfort, being Attlantis, so Yuume never saw him in a bad light even knowing what he had done.

The Renegades are the main antagonists in my AU, being a group of kwamis who have grown bitter of humanity. Their opinions very between members, some just wanting humans and kwamis separated, while others think humans should be destroyed.
