So... I Made Some Grids...

Decided to go and make a Skylander OC! So here is Scarcoffin! A Redeemed Skylander for a concept team I'm making! Essentially characters can overcome their darkness and become Skylanders, and so go so far and beyond the ascend to the rank of Redeemed! And that is Scarcoffin! So here he is and here he is also facing off a revived Drill-X!!! BECAUSE WHY NOT?! XD

Uh yeah.

More AU Concepts and Ideas

:| I have to write these down so I don't forget lol

[Amphibia: Good King Andrias] Andrias is never evil or bad in this AU. He truly cares about getting the girls home. But he is also still aware of the Core and its plans. So to avoid the Core getting its hands on Marcy or any of the other girls, he keeps it a secret and helps the humans and their friends recharge the gems and even helps Marcy understand why they can’t truly stay there. In the end, the Core eventually gets a hold of the Calamity Box and uses it to escape to Earth and try and take over. Andrias confronts the Core himself but gets badly wounded, revealing his cyborg body. Eventually he explains what happened and helps the girls gain the power of the gems, even being able to retake the Calamity Box from the Core and use it to do so. In the end he is able to help stop the invasion and banish the Core forever using old Amphibia magic. He helps establish a permanent portal so the girls can go to and from Amphibia as they please. He also steps down from the throne and goes to farming.

[Amphibia/FNaF Fusion] Vanessa, Micheal, and Charlie take the place of the Calamity Trio, different eras of Animatronics are the different Frog species (Frogs=Classic, Toys, Withered/ Toads=Phantoms, Nightmares, Scraps/ Newts=Funtimes, Glamrocks, Rockstars), the Core is Glitchtrap, and the Calamity Box is called the Remnant Chest. The story is pretty much just Amphibia’s but maybe with minor changes. Ah yes, two trauma fandoms brought into one. MMMMMMM.

[Owl House: Good Odelia] Odelia is actually a very caring and understanding mother, which allows the Blight Twins and Amity to grow up to be more like what we know of them after their interactions with Luz. Odelia often visits the Owl House, motherly instinct wanting to see how Luz and Amity are doing as girlfriends. She also would be there to help try and stop Belos. And (for a fun twist) be there with Amity and the rest of Hexsqaud when the Collector appeared and sent them all to the Human Realm, now including Odelia. So Hexsquad now has an adult representative to help in their trials and errors in the human realm.

[Star Wars: The Stasis Base] Ashoka is approached by her old mentor Plo Koon to be part of a special and secret mission… only known to Plo Koon, Bo Katan, and Padme Amidala. Plo Koon has increasingly grown suspicious of Chancellor Palpatine, the supposed Inhibitor Chips, and the increasingly friendly actions towards Anakin. So he extended a hand to Bo Katan and Padme Amidala explaining the situation and telling Bo Katan if she helped he’d help her. Now with Ashoka on board, Plo Koon reveals a secret base hidden on Kamino, avoided from all Kaminoain and Republic and even Jedi records. The base holds over two legions worth of Stasis pods. So the plan is to secretly recruit clones to go into stasis in case the Chancellor indeed pulls a move. And so the deed is done, and Bo Katan hires some of her Mandalorian allies to help guard the base alongside some clones who have had their chips removed. Spoiler alert: The asleep clones are awakened by the Rebel Alliance to deal with the Empire.

Here is my Emputara!Orion Pax for the Emputara!Orion Pax AU. Our poor boi has been traumatized immensely as you can see. But now he ain't going to be dying hundreds of times.

Here's the link to the original post about this AU

I present to you, my MHA oc. Not my first one, but one I am very happy with.

Ben Ka-On AKA Rough-Time, the Tired Hero "I am a very tired guy, so if you could please just stand down, this will make it easier for the both of us."

Age: 22 Birthday: February 14th Gender: Male Birthplace: America (Idaho) Current Residency: Japan Quirk: Altered Telekinesis Ben's Telekinesis quirk is a powerful one. As long as it is not sentient, a gas, or a liquid Ben can mentally move it however he pleases. What is also so unique about his version of telekinesis is that one under his control, no matter how much force he uses, no damage is found on the item. It is only when the object is released from his control that it can actually break. This makes him very versatile in combat and rescue situations, capable of throwing large amounts of vehicles at an opponent as well as lifting up debris off of captured civilians. Of course, with any quirk there are limits. As stated before, anything that is sentient, a gas, or liquid cannot be manipulated. A unique part of this rule includes items deeply connected to a being. Think a support item fused with someone. That support item can no longer be manipulated. But there is yet on other limit to Ben's quirk. Depending on the weight, size, and number of objects being controlled, there comes a limit. Sure, he can volley entire parking lots of cars, but only so many cars at a time. It makes deciding what to actually control a constant challenge for Ben. And of course, the more he uses and/or overextends himself with his quirk, the more exhausted he gets, though he also suffers from dizziness and migraines as well. 

Background: Ben was born and raised in America in the state of Idaho. Born to Micheal and Holly Ka-On, he is the oldest of four siblings, including his twin brother. The moment his quirk manifested, Ben knew he wanted to become a hero, just like his mother (the #10 hero in the state of Idaho, Mind Bird). So, he trained with his twin, Atlas Ka-On. Ben loved his family to shreds, and training with his twin was also a great way for the both of them to vent out any frustrations they had. Especially when they started school. Ben was often stated to give others a "rough time" when interacting with the other kids, due to his strong sense of justice and general annoyed aura. This made it hard for him to make any friends, no matter how hard he genuinely tried. This extended to junior high as well, which even led to Ben being expelled from a school after he beat a fellow student badly due to that student creeping around the ladies' rooms. 

This made it hard for Ben to even be accepted into a new school. This led to him becoming less and less social, even to the point of training alone instead of with Atlas. This worried his parents greatly, so when high school rolled around, they pulled a few strings to get Ben into Idaho's top hero school: High Mountain. The school literally built inside of a mountain. Due to the mandatory dorm rule there, Ben was placed alongside five other students. While Ben was standoffish at first, he eventually would allow himself to at least have a few friends. With his dormmates, Ben went on to become one of the best students in the school, maybe not in grades, but with pure skill and determination. Because of this, when he graduated, he began to immediately climb the hero ranks, with his friends close behind him. At the peak of his American career, he hit rank #27. At that point, he felt ready to start an agency. 

Unfortunately, life had other plans. At 20 years old, Ben Ka-On was investigating a large string of kidnappings that he found way to similar to each other. Following the trail led him to a warehouse where he was captured. Turns out the #1 Hero of the state, Leafneck, had gone rouge and was working with a villain known as Hot Hands to capture people with impressive quirks and sell them off to the highest bidder. But Ben was a hero, so unlike the others they captured, the two demented villains decided to torture the hero. Ben would be beaten again and again until the fateful moment where Hot Hands used his quirk Melt Off to begin burning layers of skin and muscle from Ben's jaw and neck, with the goal of permanently removing his vocal cords. It was excruciating, almost to the point of fainting, but Ben would not give these two assholes any satisfaction. 

Fortunately, a rescue squad of heroes arrived at the scene, Ben's notes leading the straight to the warehouse. It was only a matter of minutes that put Leafneck and Hot Hands away for good. Ben was taken to the hospital for treatment. Unfortunately, the damages were already done. His lower jaw and portion of his neck could never recover. And due to the disfigurement caused by Hot Hands, Ben looked almost twisted. For the next two months, he stayed home, not speaking to anyone besides his family and old dormmates. It also didn't help that some ignorant enough to not believe the word of the other heroes present claiming Ben had set Leafneck up. The air was very hostile, and Ben needed to get away from it all, so he decided to move. But not anywhere in the states, no. He decided to move even further. 

He decided to move to Japan. After jumping through a LOT of hoops and landing a hero license there, Ben Ka-On officially moved, and began a new step in his journey. ______________________________________________________________

Primary Relationships:

Fatgum: Fatgum was one of the first heroes that Ben worked with in Japan. The two got along surprisingly well and have worked together quite a few more times since then. Ben enjoys hanging out with the fellow pro hero.

Miriko: Despite the two having very distinctly different personalities, Miriko and Ben work very well together. It is probably due to the two's very combative fighting styles and just almost non-caring attitude when it comes to danger. 

Present Mic: Mic and RT are very good friends. Despite Ben being more reserved, the two have quite a lot of fun whenever they have a moment away from school and hero work. Mostly by bothering Aizawa, but also by just having nice long conversations about... well, anything!

Other Info:

Ben works as a secondary counselor at UA. His primary job there is to assist students with the more complicated issues they may be facing at school, whether that be a quirk accident or just feeling overwhelmed.

After setting up an agency in Japan, Ben worked to open a few social programs that could help the community. His agency is always open for social gatherings.

He has a total of seven sidekicks, all of which are former criminals that he personally extended a hand to give them a second chance. 

Ben is currently ranked #34th in the rankings. 

Due to his injuries by Hot Hands, Ben wears a mask and almost always a turtleneck. This is to help the sensitive skin not interact with the open air as much, as well as cover the injury up to not freak people out. 

His Ultimate Move is called Mental Crash Out. He unleashes an almost unholy amount of psychic energy to cause the surrounding area to explode, allowing him to manipulate the debris. He can also use this move in the form of a punch.  

Surprising many, Ben actually has connections all around the world, mainly because he has a large online presence. 

Even as tired as he is, Ben is a very kind hero.

Trust me (actually, don't... I have tendency to move onto random projects left and right.), this Crossover universe is going to be EPIC.

If you support gay marriage reblog this. If you're on the homophobic side, keep scrolling.

As a bisexual, it sickens me that some people WILL keep scrolling.

Psst. Come here. Yes, you, come here. Allow me to let you in to a little secret.

When an artist draws fanart of a Thing and posts it online, there’s a 99.9% chance they’re looking to make friends with people who also enjoy said Thing.

What I’m trying to say is please just come talk to me I have so many emotions and drawing them simply isn’t enough
