A THIRD! A THIRD I SAY! Not technically on the same day, but within the same 24 hours. I have been stricken with inspiration. This one actually came at the request of @number1bolusmaker, so I'm happy to say that I'm officially getting noticed :D I'm also gonna start doing little ID breakdowns when I make these, to explain my favorite bits and bobs about each ID. What's the point of making these if I don't get to gush a little, eh?
CANTO 8 SPOILERS AND EXCESSIVE GUSHING AFTER THE BREAK
So for this one, we've got our first Non-Sinner ID, Woohoo! For the sinner Icon, I used the Hongyuan logo since this mirror world's Jia Huan is their head Bolus Researcher. I used pride, gloom, and gluttony for the skills for two reasons. One, Pride Gloom and Gluttony are all present within Jia Mu's kit, and she was also a big Bolus user right before her distortion. I also felt that Pride, Gloom, and Gluttony fit Jia Huan, with him being prideful about the Boluses he makes, gloomy about the state of Hongyuan under the rule of (I think Lord Hong Lu, but I might've read wrong), and Gluttony from Jia Huan's curiosity. At least in the LCB Mirror World, Jia Huan was so eager to know about the new bolus that he ended up dying to the cuckoo people. For the skill names, I had to get a bit more creative since there weren't any asks or posts that involved Jia Huan fighting anyone, so I figured he'd probably use Martial Arts like Jia Xichun, though I went with Jade martial arts as opposed to Jia Xichun's Crimson martial arts. Why? Hahaha~ I feel like the answer is obvious. I stuck with adding the Chinese characters to the end of the skill names because it looks/sounds cool as hell, but I do not speak Chinese, so I had to use Google Translate. So sorry. I will suffer this great shame forever and ever. Now onto the Gimmick.
Since Jia Huan is a Bolus Researcher, I figured why not have him make his own Skill 3? It can become absolutely fuckbusted with proper time and care, but if you mismanage your Bolus ingredients, you're gonna need to start over. Luckily, the Clash Power Up bonus should help in making sure that you're not firing off useless skills. And since the Defense skill is what starts the chain, you can wait until you have a skill 1 and 2 on the way to start the reaction. The Skill 3 is absolutely insane at maximum Bolus, turning into a 6 coin skill with a base power of 7, a coin power of 6, and a crapton of status inflicting. I love overpowered skill 3s. Plus, even after the Bolus is consumed, you get some residual buffs for the rest of the fight!
OK, so, statuses. Canto 8 was the real and true season of Rupture. Makes some sense, Rupture being associated with the sin of Gluttony, while we were in a Wing (AKA A money-hungry megacorp). Canto 8 analysis aside, Rupture was a necessity for an H Corp Bolus Researcher. The other status I chose was bleed, because Jia Xichun's Crimson Martial arts use a little bleed, and a lottle poise. I feel like Poise is sorta "Martial Arts Master" and I get the vibe that Jia Huan is probably more focused on his work as a Bolus Researcher than his training as a fighter. Still, whatever Boluses he took beforehand mean he can still open some nasty wounds.
Finally, passives. Start with a Bolus for ease of access, obv. Clash Power up is that excited frenzy creatives get when things start to click together. Plus, like I mentioned before, helps with having to use skills in a certain order in order to craft the perfect Bolus. The Resonance passive increases the bleed and rupture infliction, and gives you a new Bolus to work on if you don't have one. Why don't you get a new Bolus after consuming the original one? Cus I'm evil >:) Nah but that's my barely-an-attempt attempt at balancing how powerful the Bolus-Fueled Skill 3 is. The support passive is sort of an assumption on my part, but since there's only one Lord of Hongyuan, and since Jia Huan is the Head Bolus Researcher, I figured he'd also be the guy making all of the Boluses for the Heishou. And, as such, he can provide some buffs that are related to the Heishou! Buffs other than Haste and Poise are tied to the Heishou packs we haven't seen yet, trust. (IMO, Protection for the Chou branch, Atk Power Up for the Xu branch, and Coin Power Up for the Chen branch).
And that's it. I just love ranting about the work I do. I'll probably be going similarly in depth with the descriptions in the future. Maybe I'll go back and add this sort of rant to each one of the other fanmade IDs. Otherwise, send me more requests! I love reading through PM RP blogs! I love making IDs for AU versions of characters that other people have spent time and passion fleshing out! I don't care if it's not a sinner, I'm gonna make something! Until next time everyone.
