#hh7cc

My designs for them aren’t finalized, but they're pretty close. Here’s the frame used. Feel free to ask questions!

✦✦✦ There's a lot that's been altered or completely overhauled, but here’s some of the core differences. (Future posts are planned that will go more in depth):

✦ Base Mythology

7CC is polytheistic. Christianity and a mix of Judaism is still the main theme, but there's other deities and their respective religions that exist. Same with myths and folklore. The more people that believe in a concept, the stronger that thing is. YAHWEH and Lucifer essentially won the popularity contest and both get to lord over the "weaker" gods in their realms.

✦ Hell and Heaven’s Relationship

Things between both realms are still rife with conflict, but they rely on one another to function. God needs something to triumph over, and Lucifer needs something to corrupt. The typical "Universe Needs Balance" concept. Yearly purges are also not enacted by Angels—Hell’s suffering is self contained.

✦ Hierarchy, Politics, and the Judgment System

Heaven and Hell now have a joint “Court System” dedicated to figuring out which human goes where. There’s established criteria used to gauge how worthy a Soul is or not, with the Ten Commandments serving as the foundation.

There's other major changes on the inner workings of Heaven and Hell, like what rules there are, how they function as a society, and the class differences and biases. There's also going to be more focus on phycology, cultures, time periods, social standards, and the experience of just being alive in general.

✦ Sinners & Their Power Leveling

There's more exploration on how sinners work, can amass power, die, and regenerate. They now have more discernable appearances from Hellborn and different sinner “types” based on their biology and abilities.

✦ Environment & Ecosystem

The environments seen in the show are getting more species, territories, technologies, and different styles of architecture. Places in Hell are a lot more hazardous and range from strange to downright nightmarish. Heaven is a lot less of a cyberpunk city and more like an endless sky full of different floating fantasy islands and monuments.

✦ The Morningstar Family

Tons of the cast are different, but I feel these three have some of the most important changes to introduce. Family conflict will still be happening, but for completely different reasons since they’re both happily married and present in Charlie’s life.

✦ Lucifer Morningstar

Lucifer is still an incredibly zany little man, but he doesn’t resent his position in Hell or have depression. He loves the chaos and stands proud as ruler alongside Lilith, is constantly sewing fun wherever he can. Underneath the charismatic, goofy persona is a man apathetic about people's pain.

He's a serial trickster and gaslighter, is the main reason Charlie struggles with self worth and doubt.

✦ Lilith Morningstar

She’s closer to her jewish mythology lore. God banished and then cursed Lilith with infertility after she refused to submit to Adam. She kidnaps children's souls to fulfill her wish of being a mother, but is always left feeling unsatisfied—even after Charlie’s creation. She currently runs a “sanctuary” where children's souls reside “safe” and far away from most of hell’s residents.

She's controlling and narcissistic, is the main reason Charlie ended up so sheltered.

✦ Charlie “Magne” Morningstar

Since Lilith couldn’t have a natural birth, Lucifer and his fellow Goetia banded together to simulate one. Charlie was created through a combination of blood, magic, and souls—essentially a supercharged golem. A lot of Hell's residents (especially some Goetia) frequently clash with her altruistic nature, but she isn't 100% hated or unpopular in this AU. She gets to have some more pre-established friends and allies.

✦✦✦ Again, there is much more to be elaborated on, but they'll be getting dedicated posts. I can't promise I'll be consistently active online, but I'm always working on this AU behind the scenes.
