Twst Boys as K-Pop Idols

Strawbetty’s notes:

🍓 Warning: None, all fluff-and-crack headcanons of our lovely TWST bois as K-Pop idols! I suppose this counts as an Idol AU hehe

🍓 I’m back on my K-Pop craze so I’m combining that with TWST LOL

🍓 All “groups” (the dorms as K-Pop groups) are under Night Raven Company ;)

❤️ Heartslabyul, a 5-member group ❤️

Song rec: “WONDERLAND” by ATEEZ

🌹 Riddle Rosehearts:

- One of the youngest K-Pop leaders in history

- Main vocalist and dancer. Riddle writes a lot of his group’s songs with Trey and Cater and also writes out the group’s schedules

- His mother was absolutely LIVID about him becoming a K-Pop idol, and it took a while for her to realize Riddle’s passion for performing

- Riddle is a co-MC on a music show with Floyd (much to Riddle’s dismay)

- Makes sure his members give their 110% in everything they do, but he also loves and cherishes them with all his heart

- Had a training period of two years. He was often alone as a trainee and worried and stressed often if he would ever debut. His Heartslabyul members became his greatest friends

🍀 Trey Clover:

- Sub-rapper and dancer; his skills are the backbone of the group’s songs and performances

- NOT the oldest member of the group but fans always think he is

- Co-writer and producer; he’s better at producing than singing

- Does weekly Live Magicams where he bakes or cooks while talking to fans

- Cooks for all the members and makes sure they’re getting proper sleep, nutrition, and dental hygiene

- Won’t hesitate to call out fans or staff who make uncomfortable or inappropriate comments towards him or his members

♦️ Cater Diamond:

- Main dancer and lead vocalist. Also the oldest member of the group (fans always think he’s the second-oldest)

- 90% of the group’s Magicam posts are either taken by Cater or of Cater

- Always on top of TwstTok challenges on their group’s TwstTok page; a lot of Cater’s TwstToks go viral

- Mood maker; always gives the best ments (ending speeches) at the end of concerts

- His sisters are definitely social media influencers and most of their followers are fans of Cater and Heartslabyul

- Also LOVES getting his hair and makeup done; always brings a smile to his members’ and staffs’ faces after a long day of shooting MVs

♠️ Deuce Spade:

- Lead dancer (he used to be terrible at dancing during his trainee days, but practiced day and night and improved so much)

- Sub-vocalist

- His fandom emoji is 🐣

- His vlogs often include spending the day with his mom if he can or taking care of his pet chick that he raises at the dorm

- Also always calls his mom whenever the group wins an award or even just at the end of the day

- Always tells fans to take care of themselves :’)

♥️ Ace Trappola:

- Maknae (youngest) of the group

- Main rapper, sub-vocalist, dancer (also currently learning how to write songs with Riddle’s and Trey’s help)

- “Ace” of the group, if you will

- Ace and Riddle didn’t get along at first. Ace was the last one to be added into the group and they had their differences, but now Riddle and Ace can work well together

- Always makes sure that fans have a great time at meet-and-greets and concerts by cracking dad jokes

- His older brother is a senior idol, so Ace always feels embarrassed when he has to formally address his brother as a senior whenever they appear on the same award shows

💛 Savanaclaw, a 3-member group 💛

Song rec: “MIROH” by Stray Kids

🦁 Leona Kingscholar:

- Oldest member and leader

- Main rapper, sub-vocalist, and dancer (yes he CAN dance, and he’s pretty good at it too)

- Became an idol initially to spite Farena and their royal family, but over time Leona realized that performing was something he loved to do

- Farena and Safiya (Leona’s sister-in-law) are actually really proud of him, and Cheka makes sure to attend every one of Savanaclaw’s concerts

- His royal status protects him and his group members from fake and scandalous media outlets, one them being TwstPatch (TWST equivalent of Dispatch hehe)

- RARELY takes selfies, but when he does and posts them on the group’s Magicam of HIS OWN ACCORD, the fans go crazy (it’s me, I’m fans-🍓)

🍩 Ruggie Bucchi:

- Main dancer and sub-rapper

- Always appreciates getting free stuff from fans

- An ambassador for a donut brand; appears in a lot of donut commercials

- Participates in variety shows to network and gain connections in the industry

- Mood maker; always making fans and staff alike laugh with his jokes and shenanigans

- Sends most of the money he makes back home to his grandma and the orphans in his neighborhood (Ruggie best boy!)

🐺 Jack Howl:

- Maknae of the group but fans always mistake Ruggie as the maknae

- Main vocalist and dancer

- Always bows and shows respect to his fellow idols, especially if they’re his seniors

- Always thanks staff for their hard work and gifts them little succulents

📜 Azul Ashengrotto:

- Idol competition show judge on the side along with Vil and Rielle (Azul’s not too fond of Rielle, who he trained with when they were younger at a company called Atlantica Records. Rielle is now in an idol group from a competing entertainment company, Royal Sword Entertainment)

- Promotes his group’s comebacks and merch better than Night Raven Company

- Also handles the group’s finances because he doesn’t trust the company, especially CEO Crowley, to handle the finances

- No fake or scandalous media outlet would ever want to cross Azul or his members. TwstPatch is too scared of Azul

- Also an ambassador for a lot of designer brands with Jade, but is mostly known for being an ambassador for designer shoe brand Ténèbres

🧡 Scarabia, a duet 🧡

Song rec: “FOCUS ON ME” by Jus2

☀️ Kalim Al-Asim:

- The oldest member despite not looking it

- Saw K-Pop idols on TV once and told his dad, “Baba, I wanna be like them! Pretty pleeeeease 🥺”

- His father is a major shareholder of Night Raven Company. Despite this, Kalim has worked hard to prove that he has what it takes to be an idol

- Always puts a smile on fans’ faces and holds their hands during meet-and-greets. He also makes sure that the staff gives out water bottles to fans during concerts. He’s truly grateful for the fans and their support

- Always cries during ments or award show speeches because he’s so grateful for Jamil and for being in a duet with Jamil :’)

🌙 Jamil Viper:

- Main vocalist, dancer, and sub-rapper

- Always “Artist of the Month” for his dance skills, and dedicates all of his achievements and awards to his younger sister Najma

- Also does a lot of cooking vlogs, sometimes having Trey and Jade as special guests (they made curry together for a late night Live Magicam)

- Likes to collect Savanaclaw’s albums and merch to get more photocards of Leona (he currently has all of Leona’s photocards and every version too)

- Always wins in the archery portion of the annual Idol Sports competition

- Stalkers can’t stalk him because HE STALKS THEM

🍎 Epel Felmier:

- Maknae of the group

- Main rapper and dancer

- People immediately stan him because they think he’s the baby of the group, until they actually learn more about him

- Posts pictures of his workouts with Jack on the Pomefiore group’s Magicam but also posts pictures of all the intricate shapes he cut from apples

- Thanks to Epel’s popularity, his family’s apple juice products are now the most popular apple juice products in Twisted Wonderland

- Gets a lot of skincare and makeup ambassador offers but wishes he got brand deals from sportswear brands like Jamil instead

- Every once in a while his country accent slips out when he’s really happy about an award win for Pomefiore or when he’s really mad at a rude or inappropriate fan

💙 Ignihyde, a duet 💙

Song rec: “GAM3 BO1” by SEVENTEEN

🎮 Idia Shroud:

- Oldest member of the group (since he’s Ortho’s older brother)

- Writer, composer, and producer of their songs

- Main rapper too, surprisingly (all those arguments with fellow gamers on the Internet came in handy)

- Also became a idol to meet his favorite girl groups at award shows

- Other than that, Idia hates going to airports or anywhere public that a K-Pop idol would normally go to

- Hacks into the votings for idol competition and award shows not so that he and Ortho can win awards, but so that his favorite girl groups can win

💙 Ortho Shroud:

- Main vocalist, dancer, and the first robot K-Pop idol in history

- Loves interacting with fans and encourages Idia to interact with them too

- Ambassador for tech brands, especially modeling with tablets

- Donates a lot of the money he and Idia makes to cat charities

- He loves that all of his performance outfits are designed and made by Idia

- Gets VERY mad when a fan is rude to Idia

💚 Diasomnia, a four-member group 💚

Song rec: “Excalibur” by KINGDOM

🐉 Malleus Draconia:

- The oldest leader in K-Pop history. He’s still the heir to the throne of Briar Valley, but he’s got a while till then

- Sub-vocalist and dancer (he can’t rap for his life and he can be a little awkward when dancing, but his deep voice makes fans GO WILD)

- Never thought about being a K-Pop idol until Lilia signed up Malleus, Sebek, Silver and himself up for auditions

- Tamagotchi ambassador (the Roaring Drago Tamagotchis made a comeback thanks to Malleus, and they sold out in a matter of minutes)

- Doesn’t really understand who or what “stans” are; he asked Lilia once why their fans were all named “Stan”

- His grandmother, the esteemed Queen of Briar Valley who’s lived thousands of years, is now a K-Pop stan and always buys Diasomnia’s merch and albums

🦇 Lilia Vanrouge:

- Eldest member and oldest K-Pop idol in the history of existence (no one knows his real age, not even the company)

- Lead vocalist, dancer, sub-rapper

- Goes through different hair colors every month (not because the company told him to, but because he wants to)

- Plays rock guitar in his free time

- Tries to cook for the group members but fails HORRIBLY. Also appears on cooking variety shows with Jade

- Lilia collects his own group’s albums and merch just to get more photocards of Malleus, Silver, and Sebek. Sometimes Lilia likes to go to K-Pop stores incognito with a fake mustache to pretend that he’s just a huge fan of Diasomnia

⚡️ Sebek Zigvolt:

- Main rapper (all that shouting and praises for Malleus came in handy) and dancer

- Somehow has time to lead all Malleus fanclubs and cupsleeve events (which are cafe or restaurant events held on idols’ birthdays)

- Establishes himself as Malleus’s #1 fan

- Sebek cries whenever his own fans praise him and give him gifts

- Hair gel and shampoo model on the side. One time Sebek posted a picture on the group’s Magicam with his hair down for once and FANS WENT CRAZY

- WILL argue with a fan about being Malleus’s “biggest fan”

⚔️ Silver:

- Maknae of the group (even though Sebek is technically the youngest member at the moment, Silver is going to be younger than Sebek at one point due to Sebek’s half-fae slow aging. Thus, the company and the group decided that Silver would be the maknae)

- Main dancer and sub-vocalist (dancing keeps him awake)

- Always asleep during Live Magicams with the group

- Appears in a lot of mattress commercials as a model and ambassador

- Too naive and dense to realize when a fan is flirting with him, but when he smiles at how excitable fans are, OH BOY (the fans literally faint)

- Lilia is still his adoptive father and Silver still calls Lilia “Father” sometimes during Live Magicams. Fans just think Lilia’s like the parent of the group and don’t think too much of it

Which group from Night Raven Company will you stan?

Leona Fact Sheet

(Voted 3rd-most-popular-character on the jpn server in a combination of seven different character-ranking surveys held throughout 2021)

Contrary to appearances, Leona is one of the top-performing students at NRC, but he has become extremely sarcastic after years of being constantly compared to his older brother, the crown prince of Sunset Savannah.

Translaton: "He has crescent-shaped pupils that become round in dark places." - "No human ears. Be careful of the angles when drawing"

Leona grew up in a culture where women are highly respected and we learn in-game that he is unable to refuse requests made of him by his brother’s wife. Through Ruggie, we learn that over half of the royal guard employed at the palace—where Leona was born and raised—are female.

The people of Sunset Savannah are fearful of droughts, making their second prince’s unique magic, “King’s Roar” particularly horrifying. Leona is capable of drying up both places and people and turning them to sand, without even needing to touch them (ref: Halloween Event). Unique magics are often learned by magic-users after years of study, but we learn in Book 2 that Leona was born with his ability.

Leona is an accomplished chess-player, having enjoyed the game since he was a small child when he would regularly beat even adult opponents.

His older brother’s son Cheka has only appeared once in-game (thus far), but seems very attached to his uncle, abandoning his attendants to hunt down Leona on his own in Book 2, climb bodily onto his stomach and talk about letters that have been sent but unanswered and when he might, too, be allowed to start learning how to play Spelldrive. In the Halloween event, Cheka spends the entirety of Halloween-day constantly calling Leona on his phone.

Though struggling with how Cheka’s existence ruins his chance of fulfilling his one and only dream, Leona seems fond of his nephew in his own way. Cheka’s name for Leona—Oji-tan—has been adopted by twst fans and became a trending topic on Twitter on Leona’s birthday in 2021.

Leona's demeanor is usually calm, and he treats those around him equally, without picking favorites. He is described as a “genius commander” with strong leadership abilities and prefers brains over brawn, to the point of using tactics that may be seen as underhanded or crafty.

When asked how he came by the scar on his left eye, Leona answers, “I forgot”.

Despite his decadent upbringing, Leona has no interest in wealth or material goods. On his birthday he dismisses the messages and piles of presents that have arrived from his family, even offering to give them to the player character. The only present he opens is that from Cheka, who calls him to ask how he liked it. His sister-in-law intercepts the phone before Leona is able to hang up, insisting he open the gift, and he complies.

While we know that Leona’s father is ill, we have not been given much information about his mother.

His brother Farena is older by a decade, and Leona is often criticizing him for his baseless optimism and not being politically involved enough in the running of their country. When Farena gifts him an extravagant rug to use in his dorm room, Leona responds, “Why are you giving this to me when you should be giving it to the ruler of a neighboring country as a symbol of your friendship?”

While he does his best to hide away from others he is very clearly both respected and adored within the school, often called to mediate arguments and for special training for the members of the spell drive club.

Leona became the Savanaclaw housewarden in his second year, both due to his displeasure in acting as a subordinate to someone he did not respect and to how unpleasant he found it to share a room with his fellow dormmates, who were both younger and frightened of him.

In a vignette we learn that he has been held back only one year at NRC, but he is two years older than his fellow third-year students because he enrolled a year late. While he received an invitation to NRC at the appropriate age he ignored it due to the low-level curriculum offered at the college, opting to remain at home and focus on working towards his singular goal of becoming king.

Despite his tireless efforts this ambition died with the birth of his nephew, which lead directly to Leona's belated enrollment in the school to get away. His constant skipping of classes that fail to challenge him intellectually led to his being held back a year.

Shunned for his frightening unique magic, compared unfavorably to his brother due to Farena’s cheerful personality and constantly criticized from the time he was a child, Leona’s track record of never being recognized or valued despite his hard work and accomplishments has likely also contributed to his attitude towards his classes.

Savanaclaw does not have a vice-housewarden. We learn in his Dorm Uniform home screen dialogue that “A few guys took up the job but they all challenged me, lost, and quit”.

Leona is one of very few characters capable of speaking to Malleus as an equal, and even arguing with him. Floyd refers to him as “Todo-senpai” (sea-lion), while Rook calls him “Roi des Lions” for “King of Lions”. He is regularly praised for his physical appearance by Vil, albeit always accompanied by an insult about some other aspect of his character.

Some great artists for Leona fan-art and more (SFW, no story spoilers) ・Different Leona Hairstyles ・A day in the life of Leona and Malleus ・Love this - artist’s take - on Leona (separated into Twitter posts because none of their pixiv albums are SFW) ・Mostly Ruggie but beautiful art-style

Voice Leona is voiced by Umehara Yuuichirou (梅原裕一郎), whose other work includes Soma Kureno in Fruits Basket, Weather Report in JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Stone Ocean, Legory Peck in DGray Man HALLOW, Takajo Kyoji in The Idolmaster: SideM and more. Bonus: subtitled video of Umehara being a happy nerd on a TV show
