Summary:

She feels Beyal's hand reach under the table and squeeze her knee like is the most natural thing in the world. He doesn't stop talking to Chase and Bren. The. The hand stays there. Confused, she sneaks a subtle glance at him, but the moment she even thinks about opening her mouth she freezes as an impending sense of doom washes over her when she feels Dax's hand reach and Squeeze the meat of her thigh. Oh. Oh no.

Things I would have liked to see in Monsuno Part 1

Bekka actually having weight in the story, we find out she's Master Ey's daughter and then we NEVER see her again. I kinda want her to mirror Beyal's relationships with Monsuno's, she does not possess the Sight nor can she have visions but she has Flawless control and communications skills with her Monsuno.

While Beyal has a telepathic connection with Glowblade (At least in my rewrite), Bekka communicates with Sizzler through a complex system of hand signs, clicking of her tongue and whistling that she developed to make up for her Bow of Silence.

Just her having the sweetiest and calmest demeanor while she wreaks your shit, I LOVE gentle, well mannered female characters with soft voices that can AND WILL kick your ass.

Pozzo having a backstory of smth, he BARELY has any dialogue if none at all in his 7-ish mins of screen time. Also, she reminds me of Casca XDD

How the hell did the Desert Wolves formed, Jack both unnerves and annoys the crap outta me (Props to his VA, he flipping nailed the psycho)

Also How mythology would work In-Universe, if Beyal is the somewhat Buddhist set of beliefs, how does Monsuno looked like in different countries and cultures? We have Mayan type piramids with Monsuno statues in canon, Were they seen as Gods? Calamities? Does one Culture see and worships them as Benevolent, generous Deities that aid humanity when it most needs them while other portrays them as Creatures of Destruction? The Untamable, Amoral Force of Nature?

Spike appearing more in general, getting a redemption arc after his whole vendetta with Dax, and eventually becoming a supporting character down the road. Also as a glimpse into Dax's older life and the things they BOTH had to do in order to survive all by themselves in the world.

Filler episodes

FILLER EPISODES

FILLER EPISODES

How does Team Core-Tech play boardgames? Dax is a beast at any and all card games, also a chronic cheater just for shits and giggles, HE WILL leave you bankrupt and beyond if you bet money, he does not shut up and will mess with you for the entirety of the game to make you slip plus SUCH a sore loser.

Jinja has Avengers Level Threat Gamer Rage, she WILL flip the board you DO NOT KNOW FEAR until you play with her, Bren is the BIGGEST sore loser right next to Dax, Beyal is a pro at games that have to do anything with Memory and Knowledge like Jeopardy, he IS a walking, breathing encyclopedy, also adept at Checkers, Chess and Go, nothing impressive but still can hold his own.

Him and Chase are the only ones that are chill to play anything with without risking collateral damage.

Kimi developing as a character and becoming a supporting part of the cast, also just more very young kids in general that stumble upon the world of Monsuno, basically a small cast of The Next Gen of Monsuno Controllers.

She bonding with Beyal pretty easily bc they both have Gifts, he teaches her the ropes of The Sight and bonding with a Monsuno, paralleling Chase as well, at the beginning he was VERY exhausting to work with for Beyal bc not only was he fairly new in the Monsuno World, he also had A LOT of things in his mind as well as being plagued by doubts an' stuff while Kimi is the responsible and Disciplined student to Chase's Fuck it We Ball mentality which Beyal may or may not give a judgemental side eye much to the Leader's chagrin.

Her Gift actually having weight in the story, Are all Monsunos Chill with being controlled by someone that isn't their owner? What would happen if she met a A Wild Monsuno? Can she accidentally piss off a Monsuno that does NOT like her Gift?

Her power seems the type of thing that would have the Desert Wolves after her since she's the antithesis of Jack's 'Absolute Freedom' ideology, Would Freedom Striker feel threatened by her?

Freedom Striker being the one odd exception to the partnership between Monsunos and Humans, HE is the one that tells Jack what to do, not the other way around, he is set dead on on Monsuno's returning 'To the Source' aka, the Essence burrowing underground, he feels that Humans have 'Soiled' their Perfect Existence with their scientific tampering in order to Use them As Tools and that Monsunos are, at their Core (Heh) Being of Destruction that will expand all over the Universe until there's NOTHING but MONSUNO.

He is unnervingly adept at manipulating other Monsunos and planting seeds of doubt, abused and/or Mistreated Monsunos are the perfect victims to join his cult Ehem, his Fight for FreedomTM.

Monsuno ACTUALLY having dialogues, Jack can canonically HEAR THEM TALK, I would have loved to have had them having conversations between them or arguments in opposing factions, What voice claim would you give Lock? Personally I like Christopher Lee, May he rest in peace.

Jack either going (Even more) ballistic after losing his 'Gift' or actually having his true personality come back after Freedom Striker not being able to talk to him anymore. Also having a debt of sorts to Bekka AND Beyal bc of his guilt at having killed Master Ey, Jack may be Many, MANY THINGS but a (Human) murderer is not one of them.

The guilt will follow him to his grave.

Jinja's ANYTHING background, the only thing we know abt her is that she's loaded AND HER BIRTHDAY, like girl, WHO ARE YOU!?

The Bookman actually being more of a threat, make him full on a Cult Leader that brainwashes people into doing his bidding, him selling this smoke and mirrors idea of creating Paradise or smth, that he's the second coming or whatever and that's how he gets the funding for his whole operation, by stripping his Followers dry off of all their belongings, finances and properties, make him a terrifying man not through being physicaly imposing nor strong but by portraying the very real threat of Cult Leaders doing the most heinous things known to man for long and often unpunished periods of time that predates on the vulnerable and weak.

Cashing in on the Snake VS Rat dynamic that Glowblade and Librax had, Like, C'mon, the parallels and Symbolism write themselves.

Beyal kinda NOT being the very, VERY last of his kind? I would have liked seeing more Monk survivors, Beyal and Master Ey being the only ones left irks me a little in regards to storytelling.

Dax has a LOT of trauma he hasn't unpacked (NOR HE EVER PLANS TO, THANKS A LOT) nothing over the top, I'm talking abt glimpses, his mother's death being worse than it actually was, How long did it take for someone to find him and send him to the orphanage? The whole warzone that his village ended up looking like, you can't tell me HE DIDN'T SAW THINGS his young child mind locked up waaaaay back and threw the key on a well bc OH BOY DO I HAVE IDEAS.

How the hell did he got his rivalry with Klipse? How did he became Important enough to be noticed by this narcissistic madman and not just another random kid in search for revenge? And not JUST because he worked with Jeredy, nu-uh, I want Mr. Delincuent Searched in 16 Fk Provinces going borderline Mission: Impossible on Klipse's trail and achieving mutual 'Destroy on Sight' rivalry, Is that too much to ask?

Dom Pyro staying terrifying for a bit longer, THE DUDE IS A SERIAL KILLER THAT MAKES MOLTEN STATUES OUT OF HIS VICTIMS.

And one last thing, (Inhales):

KLIPSE, WHERE YOUR AWESOME, EPIC TOXIC TRANSFORMATION AT!?!?

[shadowhornet]

Redraw time!

Meet Whirlwind! I originally drew her when I was like, 13 or smth at school but never could get satisfying results until now!

Sadly her original designs don't exist anymore (Spring cleaning, RIP old school notebooks, she looked more like a snek with wings instead of a bird) but the main concept was her batwings and floppy 'ears' Ain't she gorgeous? ///oWo/// She's a mix of a Cockatoo and a Bat.

[shadowhornet]

Rage incarnated

Meet CruxGloom!

A born fighter that seems to feel purpose only through the heat of combat, Crux is a nightmare in the battlefield and possesses the shortest fuse of all Monsunos, to the point of being practically useless in tasks that don't require her fists (Or feet).

Don't take it personally, she's just mad all the time :D

She can be considered a 'Rushdown' type of character, overwhelming and confusing her opponents by getting on their faces while raining her wrathful fists upon them, although she seems to possess a little honor (Or nasty attitude) as she will taunt and roar at an opponent she deems worthy of her time to give their all when facing her.

An exclusive close-quarters fighter, this beast has an unnerving resistance to pain among her kind and the lower her health gets, the more ferocious the combat becomes.

A monster through and through, she expects the same merciless attitude from her oponent until there is only one standing.

Do not hesitate nor pull your punches, for she will not forgive mercy nor consideration.

Blood above anything else

Meet Groundbreaker!

He's one of five monsuno a really old, wealthy and influential family commissioned from Eklipse, their symbol branded in their bodies, sacred Blades wielded in the name of the family's best interests.

Groundbreaker is the most ruthless and violent of the Blades, reflecting his controller's beliefs and determination, is the one most willing to dirty his claws if deemed necessary for their goals.

A darkness dweller, chamber of terrible secrets; Defeat is not an option.

I had a fun time designing him, it was a nice challenge since I normally don't do toads/frogs. He's a mix between a horned frog and a crocodile, although I must admit he kinda resembles more a horned lizard, the webbings of his hands and the long tongue drive the point home XDD

Dis his original design I didn't finished bc RIP my hand, I thought pen details were a good idea but in practice is a whole different story XDDD

The 'blade' tail gave me quite the trouble since sword fighting and blade/slice based attacks are the main theme in their designs, hence the 'Blade' title.

You can thank Glavenus' design for saving me XD Monster Hunter is a Goldmine of fantastic fauna.

[shadowhornet]

Light as a feather

Meet Ulra!

I finally got her design to work XDD took me the whole day 😅

She's based off of a desert kangaroo rat, Ain't she pretty? :]

I don't have much of a backstory for her, only that she's incredibly agile and her 'Ears' act as wings of sorts, along a little gravity defying powers

[shadowhornet]

Bound by Duty

Meet Kirran, the Knight Monsuno!

A fine lady indeed, She's a deceptively intelligent Monsuno that shares a noble and prideful heart with her controller. Perceptive and calculating, she isn't prone to needless violence and is quite tolerating of other Monsunos as long as they behave with the same decorum as well. Her calm demeanor irradiates through her imposing presence and can ease other Monsunos as well, even from opposing forces, confusing them from their ingrained battle nature and position herself as a dominating figure from presence alone.

Despite this odd atributes for a Monsuno, it doesn't mean this hardened veteran doesn't enjoy a brutal match with a worthy opponent just like any other Monsuno.

A natural leader, this Knight has the fatal flaw of refusing to follow others that may prove themselves superior but not worthy of her respect as well as little regard for chasing feeble dreams or, god forbid, dishonorable combat.

Surprise her, and you'll have a powerful ally, an eager rival or a terrifying enemy.

She gave me quite the trouble, her design went through at least 5 half-assed different routes when the only rules are 'Bird' and 'Feline'; then the dynamic pose influenced by a late reading of Berserk until I settled for the Knightly pose :D

[shadowhornet]

A carnivore that mimics a herbivore? Or viceversa?

Meet Fictus!

Passive pose!

What in god's name is he? I have no idea either. He's got no fur so his skin is like those soft shelled turtles, His skull is extremely hard to carry around those massive horns so he's got no 'Eyes' in the traditional sense, what looks like a closed eye is just the shape of his skull that gives him a sleepy expression but he's FAR from feeling eepy. He relies on thermal, scent and sound sensors.

Unlike the rest of his body Everything from his skull to his horns is like touching fresh, soft wood :D

Also has grabby hands like chameleons you give them anything and they will hold it XDDD

☀️Devourer of The Sun☀️

Teryx (Dino) and Fenris (S.T.O.R.M)

In my rewrite, before the start of the series, Teryx started his life as a S.T.O.R.M. Monsuno called Fenris, he was friends with Airswitch but tragedy struck and Fenris's Core got damaged and buried without chance of being retrieved, found by Klipse during season 3, Fenris was reborn as Teryx.

Consumed by a deep rooted sense of betrayal and hatred, he bowed to find Airswitch again and enact his revenge, make him feel the despair and pain that he felt during his time buried underground as well as destroying everything that Airswitch holds dear (I.e. Dax, Team Core-Tech, etc) Spike plays a key role in reuniting the old friends. I was inspired by the myth of Fenrir, a monstruous wolf that will devour the sun during Ragnarök, with Fenrir's moveset names alluding to the sun and chains, with his dialogues revolving around 'Devouring everything in his path', his need for revenge so allconsuming and self-destructive he would 'Devour the sun itself' to achieve it without regards for the consequences.

(Fenris also plays a role in my rewrite as a direct foil for the Quickforces and the whole 'Clone/replacement' situation)

[shadowhornet]

Is anyone else ever genuinely shocked when you find out you have an impact on someone’s life? A coworker can be like “I’ve missed seeing you” and I’m just like “???? you?? missed me????? My presence has an effect on your daily experience???? I affect things??? W h a t ? ? ?”
