let's get creative!!!!!!

green is not a creative color

okay no but really tho
what's the most creative/original lore you've made or expanded upon for your prompt?

i think the best lore of mine is with the incubi and succubi in my ace incubus prompt, and how they're not really "sex demons" but demons who feed on emotional energy, which is of course easiest to bring about during Bone O'Clock, and thus ace demons just learn how to Suck Less at Being Empaths. orrrr maybe this one prompt about a warlock john wherein warlocks basically come from the Twilight Zone (aka a dimension in between dimensions). both are pretty good.

but yeah what about u guys.

This is dumb and small, but I liked expanding a bit on the early days of Condesce's reign over Earth with the introduction of so-called "Troll Roads" (haha get it like toll roads but with bridge trolls.) Little details that I haven't gotten the chance to talk much about, but I wanted to write something involving Dave illegally smuggling in water filtration that takes the Faygo pumped through the piping system and turning it back into usable water, attending protests of the "election" of the two Juggalo presidents, ect.

Alright so I hated how petstuck was an au where are all the trolls are just cutsey little furry babies. So I made my own little prompt explaining how the troll species worked and how they fit into society. It's always under work but its my pride and joy honestly.

Ahhhh, if we're talking about ideas to expand on, there's my Steampunk Angels and Demons thing! I kept seeing all these demons and angels AUs that kind of rely on the fact that "oooooo demons and angels are mythical oooooooooo" and then I kind thought, hey wait, could explain angels and demons as biological species? So was born the hierarchy of this AU, which was made steampunk for the sole reason of aesthetic. Angels, demons, and humans all stemming from the same common ancestor but having different evolutionary advantages.

Angels, for instance, have a higher mental capacity and enhanced empathy, which allows them to do many things with the power of their minds, such as mind control, telekinesis, etc! They also have an advanced rate of healing, making them notoriously difficult to kill. They occupy the top rung of society, upper nobility and ruling class, and the richest angelic family is in control of it all. Basically, most of them are politicians and control the highest positions in the military and bureaucracy, though they make it seem like they're leaving a lot of it up to the demons. Since unless they show off the slits they have cut surgically into their backs, no one can distinguish them from humans, they often wear accessories to denote their position in society, such as clockwork wings (hollow for status, pathways of gears leading to exposed nerves in the slits in the back for flight use) and 'halos', which may as well be tiaratops but without the mind control lol

Demons are much more physical creatures, and are often physically bigger, stronger, and more varied than angels or humans. They oftentimes have enhanced physical strength, flexibility, or natural affinities for weaponry and swords! They are also notoriously hard to kill, because it's notoriously hard to land a hit on them. Usually demons occupy lower nobility, most if not all military positions, and big business. They can for the most part be distinguished from humans due to bigger forms, but they take it upon themselves to accessorize anyway, with a wide variety of options, such as wings (a frame of lightweight metal or wood spine with canvas stretched between, like bat wings), horns, extremely metallic teeth, claws, and prehensile tails. The higher ranking ones or more outlandish ones may deform themselves to truly look demonic- height enhancements, metal plating, etc

And then you have humans, who got the short end of the stick around here. They're essentially the peasantry, though they can have very minor positions in government (so that the angels can just say "see you're contributing too" when the humans try to complain that they aren't able to get involved) and can rise up in rank within mechanics' guilds and other such businesses. Keeping in with this theme, of course, is the idea of a wingsmith- humans holding the job of wingsmith is the most honored there is, because then they're talking, more often than not, to angels to outfit them with their wings.

Honestly though, looking over this- I could very easily make this not Steampunk??? Like modern day with all this, so like, instead of everything being mainly metal and clockwork you have plastic and brightly colored things too?? Idk man what do you guys think?

probably my generic kingdom au, where the lands formed the two halves of a continent, aka prospit and derse. i expanded on it a lot over time, since the levels of "i couldve written this half-comatose and while playing the recorder with my nose and it wouldnt have been noticeably worse" were too damn high there.

either that or every au that involved space ive ever been even remotely associated with tbh

[davedudie]

superhero au hahaaaaa
like going into aspects and psyching it all out so powers would fit and then basic sciencey explanations for everything rip

[cherubplaynonsense]

thaaat would have to be my take on the "demon hunter" shit that kept floating around as an excuse for Lust Demons and shit like that. i took the concept of demons and instead of applying hunters i applied angels, and thus an entire afterlife au was born.
it was still inevitably used as ship fodder but it was built on the back of an incredibly serious ideal, i promise---

I'm still super proud of my vampire lore.
