My Personal Watcher AU
ELLO! I have this whole WatcherAU in my head and I need to lore dump so here we go!!
This is based off of Martyn's Eyes and Ears AU
I was thinking of my AU being applicable for more Minecraft communities. Yes, the main setting is the Life Series, but how the power-scaling and magical god-like beings work should be applicable for any Minecraft character.
I have a sorta "hierarchy" for the Cosmics, which I've decided to call the beings with universal powers.
The Supreme Watchers
The Listeners
The Watchers
The Rogues
The Devoid
The High Watchers
The Supreme Watchers (who sometimes just go by Supremes) are the most powerful Cosmics. They are the main Watchers in the Life Series. All Watchers feed off of negative emotions (anger, pain, grief, sadness, etc.), but the Supremes need MORE, which is why the Life Series was created. There are 3 Supremes, and they have the ability to destroy and create worlds and universes. They cannot, however, enter those universes.
The Listeners
The Listeners are underneath the Supreme Watchers in power. Although they don't have the ability to create or destroy worlds and universes, they can easily enter them, even without permission.
The Listeners feed off of neutral emotions and actions, which are emotions and actions that can be seen as good or bad, depending on how they are done (killing, lying, obedience, pride, love) Sometimes Love can be good, but other times it's obsessive. Murder can be good when it's done for a good cause, other times it's just pure evil. I hope that makes sense lol.
There are around 20 Listeners, including Martyn.
The Watchers
The normal Watchers are less powerful than the Listeners. These are the Watchers we know well. Most Watchers are unable to freely enter different universes, but they can freely watch and interact with them. Just like the Supremes, they feed off of negative emotions, but at a smaller scale. These are the Watchers you'll see in other universes outside of the Life Series.
There are around 75 Watchers, including Grian, Herobrine (LMAO) and the Secret Keeper.
The Rogues
The Rogues are like the "protists" of the Cosmics. They have the largest range of power, with some individuals being able to freely enter worlds and others only catching glimpses of other universes. These people are your Admins and universe-hoppers, etc. Some Rogues might not even know they are Rogues.
About 100 people KNOW that they are Rogues, including Pearl, Gem, Xisumavoid, Kenadian, the random-ass Admin guy from Minecraft Story Mode, and BBH. (Yes, we are really reaching through Minecraft Content Creators, no one is safe.) Many more do not know, such as JoeHills, Skizz, and Scott.
The Devoid (see what I did there)
These are your normal people, your Average Joes. Animal hybrids, humans, etc. No cosmic powers.
Some include BigB, Jimmy, Taurtis, Tommyinnit, Impulse, Shelby and many more.
People have the ability to gain cosmic abilities, whether that's becoming a Watcher or Listener, or getting bit by a radioactive spider or something. People can also lose cosmic abilities, which is less common. There are many ways someone could lose their cosmic abilities, but the main reason is by said abilities getting revoked by the Supremes.
The War
The Watchers and Listeners hate each other, so why not fight each other? The main conflict is between the Watchers and Listeners, and their battle ground is the Life Series. While the events of the Life Series are going on the Watchers and Listeners are trying to fuck each other up by using the players as pawns. Neither of them really care about the players, just how much they could ruin each others' lives.
The Evo-Lifers and the Winners eventually get really involved in the war. They start picking sides, everything goes to shit, angst and suffering, you know, it's routine at this point.
HOLY YAPPP
Any questions? Wanna see more?
