yooo any thoughts on the badlands in your mid hybrid au? also the au is very cool!!

Here’s some Badlands stuff!

Badboyhalo - Magma Cube - Hostile 

Bad was born within the Nether, but he wasn’t there very long, practically being raised completely in the overworld. 

A witch had found him and captured him, finding him to be a steady source of magma cream which didn’t require hunting and and the dangers of the Nether. 

Despite the intentions of the witch, the first several years of Bad’s life were pretty decent, but it wasn’t until something was...off with the witch that things went downhill, and the witch got a little risky with experiments. 

He escaped in the night without the witch seeing him, but he’d never forget those vines...crimson in color, nor could he rid the marks of the vines on his skin. He left at the age of 15.

Bad met Skeppy a few nights later under the full moon within the swamp. They were instantly inseparable, and left the swamp together, settling far away in a forest together, building a home for themselves. 

Bad learned a lot about potion making from the witch. 

Due to being a magma cube hybrid, he can jump really high and he’s completely immune to fire and lava as well as fall damage. Unlike other nether hybrids, he’s fine within water and can swim, he just doesn’t like how cold it gets. 

If Bad concentrates, he can split himself into up to 4 copies, which is great for combat and to cause distractions. As long as his core isn’t hurt, he’ll be fine. If he loses a copy or few, he’s just smaller until he can replenish that slime back. A lava bath usually does the trick. 

He didn’t meet Sam or Ant until many years later. 

Bad has met a handful of people from various other factions, but doesn’t speak to them often. 

He’s friends with Dream, George, and Sapnap, and has taken part in many of their hunts and games, eventually convincing Antfrost to do the same. 

Skeppy - Slime - Hostile

Skeppy was born in the swamp and stayed in the swamp until he met Bad.

He has a very similar skill set to Bad, making them a great duo when it comes to attacking and holding their ground. 

Skeppy can summon slime which allows him to climb many surfaces as well as to trap foes. He can very easily attack multiple enemies at once, which is another benefit

He has an affinity for shiny things and collects them.

He’s the strongest under the full moon, but he can’t shift into a human form while the full moon is in the sky.

He’s known for pranking and joking around, and despite Bad’s protests, he’s gotten the duo banned from several villages. 

Skeppy has seen the markings of the vines on Bad, and it worries him, he doesn’t know a lot about the Nether, but if anything happened to Bad there would be a lot of destruction that follows. 

He met the other two at the same time as Bad.

Sam - Creeper - Hostile

Sam found caves his home for a long time, longing to reach the surface. Watching humans create mineshafts, railway systems, and various means of getting to the surface, he eventually made it there.

He lived amongst villagers for a long time under the guise of his human form. Here he learned redstone, brewing, enchantments, and other various tasks. He educated himself, learned about the different dimensions and biomes, and decided that he wanted to explore and adventure. 

He has a natural fear of cats, which left him antsy whenever he was in villages, but over time this fear has dulled. He met Antfrost in one of these villages, and had to ignore this instinct further. 

He met Bad and Skeppy in his travels, and taught them both basic redstone. Skeppy seemed to be very interested in traps. 

He came by and visited them many times throughout the years- it wasn’t until he noticed other hybrids making factions and groups that he offered them to make their own. That was the start of the Badlands.

Whenever he gets spooked or nervous, he hisses, and has to take sometimes minutes to calm down and control his instinct to explode. 

He’s met Eret as well as members of the ‘SBI’, Dream Team, and other factions. He’s built many devices and farms for them. He provides a lot of information to Eret whenever he comes across it

He became friends with Phil, who also knew a great deal of redstone. He started teaching Tubbo some bits of simple redstone. 

Sam has given Tommy armor, weapons, and items that he finds cool and interesting. He finds the fiery attitude of the moobloom to be endearing. He also gives him any music discs he finds, if Tommy doesn’t have them already.

Sam doesn’t want to explode accidentally, but he can do so purposefully if he’s careful. It’s a great defense tactic. He’s also learned that with certain enchantments, he can summon lightning in the rain, which makes his explosions much more powerful. 

Started research on the marks Bad has

Antfrost - Cat - Passive

Antfrost was born and raised in the village, in particular raised by the village’s iron golem and cleric. 

He met Sam in his early adulthood and they’ve stuck together since. 

He has a good sense of where objects are and often is able to find missing things with ease. 

He’s very fast and can slide into small passageways and spaces easily. 

For some reason, Phil and Sam seem to need to keep a distance from him by at least a few feet. He’s hissed at Phil on a few occasions.

He’s not very good when it comes to fighting, however he is very quick when it comes to collecting resources and tracking, which is what he mainly does when the Dream Team, Bad, and himself partake in games or hunts. 

When he met Bad, he noticed the red vine marks, and spoke to Sam about them. Sam has started research on them, but Antfrost pointed out that they’re from the nether. He remembers them on one of the cleric’s books. Whatever it is, it seems to draw him, and that scares him a little. He’s not told anyone this. 

He doesn’t take fall damage. He also hates water. He’s a natural hunter.
