#radiance aroiis

[icerosesummerbracket]

All right, according to the tie results and round 3 results, we've reached the finale

Daisy lore established so far: It uses it/its pronouns, and is in the 16-20 age range. It's an automaton and is canonically like 10 feet tall, and is in a relationship with Cian, Kivan's older brother.

Fennel lore established so far: Belladonna's half-brother, both of them being children of Radiance's right hand man and being essentially adopted by Radiance after his death. Fennel's strength comes from the fact that he never gave up on being good and kind, even though it only brought more trouble and tragedy upon him. He helps save Lily when they get captured by Radiance, he's important to Lux's switching sides, and of course he means a lot to Belladonna. Lastly, though somewhat more of a fun fact compared to everything else, he keeps rats as pets.

Zephyr lore established so far: Despite having a prominent role in at least one book, everyone seems to have a habit of forgetting him. One of the adult characters of the cast, he was originally on Radiance's side but not out of malice; once he realizes what she's really up to, he stands up to her and switches sides.

Please note that lore can still be added for either character as long as it doesn't contradict anything previously established as canon

Being reminded of aroiis has put me in an artistic mood apparently! So have some more fanart, this time of a scene that slapped me HARD like holy shit. The moth landing on her before Radiance appeared? The way her presence was described? Holy shiiiiiiiiiiit.

Belladonna deserved so much better,,

Everyone make sure to wish Radiance a happy Mother’s Day 🤍

Y'know I'm not sure if a lot of people remember this series, but were any of y'all fans of A Rose Of Ice In Summer?

Because my brain likes to categorize characters and I think I've come up with some stuff.

Radiance is a winter character.

Chronicler is a fall character.

Kivan is a summer character.

Madame Spiceberry is a spring character.

Does this make any sense to anyone but me? Probably not. But. I do not care.

Tbh I think Radiance's 'winter' vibes come from the fact that my brain decided she looked like Morgan from The Magic Treehouse in the fourth Merlin Mission. Y'all remember that?

SPOILERS FOR UP TO AROIIS BOOK 3

My headcanon design for Lily after their post-Radiance kidnap recovery arc! :) I tried to focus on practicality, so the upper cloak, armorwear, and belts are magneted to stay together; I don't remember whether it was necessarily Lily who used magnets on their outer clothing or not, but I remember someone did, so I call fair game, fjksjsjd. I also tried to focus a bit on the dissociation and intensification of the red + yellow from their light orange after their arc for the symbolism

Tempted to try and draw all the aroiis characters, major and minor, in this style. May be biting off more than I can chew

Fennel lore established so far: Belladonna's half-brother, both of them being children of Radiance's right hand man and being essentially adopted by Radiance after his death. Fennel's strength comes from the fact that he never gave up on being good and kind, even though it only brought more trouble and tragedy upon him. He helps save Lily when they get captured by Radiance, he's important to Lux's switching sides, and of course he means a lot to Belladonna. Lastly, though somewhat more of a fun fact compared to everything else, he keeps rats as pets.

Sunrise and Sunset lore established so far: They're minor villains throughout book 4, before getting redeemed and being allies in book 5. During their time as villains, their gimmick is that both twins pretend to be one single person, thus confusing people as to how they're able to do so much in such an efficient way. However, after pretending to be one person so long, their character arcs following that are about trying to figure out how to live as their own, separate, selves.

Please note that lore can still be added for either as long as it doesn't contradict anything previously established as canon

Roscuro lore established so far: Roscuro is Radiance's right-hand man throughout book 1, and he's mentioned to be just as brutal as she is. He's the father of Belladonna and Fennel, but to him it seems as though they are more like further tools to be used to further Radiance's goals, rather than feeling any proper familial bond. After Roscuro fails in book 1, Radiance pits him and Isabeth against each other, making Isabeth the one to technically kill him by hand.

Cian lore established so far: Cian is Kivan's older brother. He's something of a prodigy, though the details of that have been left vague so far. Cian's reputation makes things hard for Kivan, though it seems like it's not really Cian's fault- he's described as being humble and caring towards Kivan, unaware of what the problem is because Kivan never felt like it was fair to be mad at Cian for it. On another note, Cian is in a relationship with Daisy, the ship name for the two being called "Metal Magic", due to Daisy being an automaton and Cian being a fae

[Out of character]

Zephyr lore established so far: Despite having a prominent role in at least one book, everyone seems to have a habit of forgetting him. One of the adult characters of the cast, he was originally on Radiance's side but not out of malice; once he realizes what she's really up to, he stands up to her and switches sides.

Jacob lore established so far: A brave knight sort of character who ends up dying at some point in the series, sacrificing himself for Rose in some way. It's implied that Radiance is the one who killed him. He had a close relationship with Ruskan, and some people ship them together though it's not directly canon.

Asphodel lore established so far: Asphodel is a character who dies before the story even begins, but haunts the narrative. It seems implied that she was Radiance's first target before Rose, and at the end of the series her ghost is one of the ones that kills Radiance

Fennel lore established so far: Belladonna's half-brother, both of them being children of Radiance's right hand man and being essentially adopted by Radiance after his death.
