#jsab worldbuilding

[justshapesandshitposting]

little bit of shape worldbuilding:

shapes are partial shape shifters, as well as partial size-shifters, it's pretty limited and depends on the individual in question.

their height does depend on the amount of energy available in their energy reserves- for the most part this is a gradual thing, though in some individuals' cases, like the player shapes, they remain the same size until a certain threshold is met, upon which they sorta explode in height. there is a maximum and minimum amount of height though this again does depend on the individual.

Shape physical changes are dependent on the individual, though there are some common types of changes:

Unconscious changes (normally a response to the shapes mental/emotional state)

Conscious Changes (things that a shape consciously decides to change about them, some shapes describe these sort of changes 'like switching a light switch on and off')

do keep in mind, changes can be both types, but this is sort of just a outline.

some examples:

Fresh/Boss when startled, stressed, or pissed will grow spikes, this is an unconscious change

Sticking with Fresh/Boss, his claws are mostly a conscious shift, while they will sometimes shift in alongside his spikes.

Post-corrupted Cube's clamps and other energy constructs are a unconscious change for the most part, they don't really know how to control them, having never needed to learn how to control shifting like that bc of their condition.

Barracuda normally keeps their mouth sealed so they don't start biting people on reflex (being hideously and VERY lethally venomous does that) this is a conscious change.

[jsabaddict]

Have another animal species, as a treat

Colored this one since I think this would be a very pretty guy They can come in many colors :]

Also I will say now, at this point, the only JSaB thing about my AU is the shapes. As in, the people That's pretty much it, of course other than some things like the Treeangles But the moment you look into like the animals, it just. completely dissolves into a fucked up mixture of insanity and bullshit

The evil one still the friend's character

[ell-dordo]

Know what? I'm gonna post some of my worldbuilding. Y'all will see every monster shape available, how to tell if a shape is a hero, where heroes come from, where furshapes and furmonsters come from, and a ton of other stuff. Let me know what y'all wanna see in the ask blog!

You guys can also ask me about stuff that isn't jsab too!

I am a queer transmasc nonbinary person! My pronouns are He/They/it, and I tend to draw nonstop at a daily basis [this is probably a problem but it’s fiiiiiine]!

My birthday is Oct. 11th and I am 17! Woah my old lmao.

I tend to ask people I meet and be friends with to use tone indicators with me because I have trouble understanding your tone! Tone is hard to decipher on text so, I would really appreciate it if you used them!

I officially started drawing since I was 10-11! I’m slowly trying to learn how to code and 3D model! [4 years so far] I mainly use Maya [student edition] because I find it easier than blender! For the coding part, I use Unity! I’m not very good at coding so don’t even ask for advice </3

I love love LOVE listening to Sleep Token, Bad Omens, Pierce the Vail, Bring me the Horizons, and a bunch of other bands/artists!

Could you tell us more about Jsabstuck?

hi hi thank u for this ask tony i am sorry it took me. like two months to answer it 🏃i had beatstuck thoughts today & i will do my best to not type a ten thousand word essay (giggle)

basically it takes place in Paradise, which iirc is where. Jsab takes place in as well. But the four player shapes (skya iris cirk & pent) r living at a different point in time than the boss characters (basically all the bosses from jsab, not counting final boss or annihilate bc they're the same character)

this is the cool part: they're basically in a time loop. Paradise gets destroyed and turns into the ocean wasteland, then it gets reborn again, and then gets taken over again. Basically at some point one of the characters realizes that they're stuck like this and they use the game as a way to escape (not necessarily just to escape the time loop for all the characters though, I think having a theme of wanting to escape something by playing the game would be really cool :]])

basically. lots of time shenanigans that are gonna destroy my brain cells

also: one team has a space player but no time player and the other has a time player but no space player. so in order 2 create a new universe they devise a plan to merge their game sessions somehow hehehe

hrmm how do I word this. the player shape's version of "Paradise" is this, vast ocean wasteland. there's some buts of land scattered about that have like, I guess pocket dimensions (basically the levels in jsab. I think this would sorta be like the area you first start out in jsab itself, like before u get to the main area of the game) but for the most part it is just water.

The bosses' version of "Paradise" is much more,,, lively than the other Paradise. This is just the Paradise that u see in game basically <3 but specifically the Island after it's been taken over by the antagonist. basically Paradise is under a tyrannical rule by the boss from New Game so life there is very far from paradise , actually.

also, something 2 note is that Boss/Bosse, I can't decide on the name yet, (the character from Long Live the New Fresh) & Neuga (name I came up w for the character from New Game that. I will not elaborate on [yet]) are separate characters here. Neuga acts more as like a guardian to Boss (but like. not a very good one)

umum anywho things to note is that the main few areas are the cave, factory, volcano, & the mainland (had a very important tree there that basically creates new objects that got wrecked and replaced w a sick tower. by Neuga of course <3

im gonna be real with u 60% of the worldbuilding is loosely based on what the actual game gives us and then 40% is just. stuff i thought was cool.

OK SO I FAILED AT NOT WRITING AN ESSAY ,. I wanted to ramble abt some of the characters too but ‼️I don't want to write a novel (and also I'm a bit tired) so i think i will definitely ramble abt them at a later date

[bgsartcavern]

Would anyone be interested if i made a doc with lore and worldbuilding for the jsab mech au

[ask-those-shapes-n-beats]

Lore? you bitches want lore?! WELL HERE IT IS

so yeah Treeangle lore is now on the blog under the worldbuilding tab and the tree + rosetta refs can be found under characters tab in 'members of the tree'

rosetta belongs to @gearz-dog

more shape headcanons that will likely involve me tweaking my designs (again)

shapes have multiple colors, a primary color and a secondary color-

colors are important, because ones of a certain color will be either immune or resistant to corruption i.e pink is resistant/immune to pink, blue is resistant/immune to blue, etc.

whether one is resistant or immune depends on the individual and it ranges quite a bit. for example, cube is resistant but can still be corrupted, but shapes like the helicopter and the boat are unaffected by it, it can still hurt them, but they can't be corrupted-

and if we want to go further, there could be shapes who retain their mind somewhat after corruption after their systems fight it off like it's a disease, but can still be corrupted. in the meantime though, they will still act like one that had been fully corrupted. (theoretically lycanthropy could be one of these shapes)

so why 3 colors? because more than 3 is kinda overkill and gets complicated, FAST when it comes to designing, and 3 is still a good color to work with when it comes to coloring/designing. (not excluding shades of colors are still counted as that color i.e dark red and red are both reds)

shapes can be the same color on both colors, i.e magenta/magenta/magenta or blue/blue/blue. but it's fairly rare for that to happen. generally speaking, the colors are ranged from most to least, so a shape who is primarily say, blue with some black markings and pink highlights, the colors will be ordered as the following: blue/black/pink

i should prolly make a reference for what certain colors affect- for ease of worldbuilding later-

[just-caves-and-gems]

wrt that last post: here’s a map of paradise I drew to make sure the places ppl went made sense! the bubble is the actual bounds of paradise, and the grey lines are bridges between the islands.

[jsabaddict]

Shows y'all two random animal designs, which are the animals Heli and Ketches (Helicopter and Boat) are in my AU :]

Recta-crested Hawk

Wide head fin sea lizard

That's all, back into the void I go

(Also unrelated, I swear I'm working on the BotB submission, im just taking it really slow cause my brain pisses myself when I try to work on it)

[catsnmagic]

Block girl also friend's character

[ell-dordo]

Re-using my Jsab OCs to fit as agents into Lasers and Lightspeed. I wanted to keep the character's personalities, and rework their designs to fit my current worldbuilding!

Eight Days Of Wonder

praying is a somewhat big thing in paradise, because evidence of divine intervention is obvious and people want it

once a year, during the supposed planting of the sacred treeangle, shapes break off a teensy tiny shard of themselves, write a wish on it, and dispose of it near the treeangle, whether jt be by burying, grindign into powder, shoving it into the bark, or throwing it into the tree

this is a tradition that reminds everyone that no matter how different someone may be, you all are shapes created from the treeangle and are all part of a community.

the remaining 7 days have a day of remembrance, day of feasting, day of celebration, day of cleansing, day of sacrifice, day of rejuvenation, day of confession, and finally, day of lights

ps shape shards enter a state of rigor mortis very quickly after it's removed so it's not that bad

day of remembrance is a way to preserve the memory of shattered shapes. it usually has those who were close or "family" of the shape do things such as burn incense and leave offerings of food, bp and trinkets before a photo of the gone shape

day of feasting is to remind that there is joy to be found in simple things. it usually consists of a whole region getting together and having a feast. styles range from picnic to bbq to buffet to dining hall and fancy full-course french dinner, but the idea is still the same

day of celebration has similar intent. it's meant to elicit a sense of wonder and glee in people, and have them relax for a day. methods involve parades, organized gatherings, rituals, music, shows, and much more

day of cleansing is one of the last days of a year in this world, and this day consists of symbolic and practical practices

this day is about going to the next year with minimal regrets, and people "cleanse" themselves and their community of those regrets or just overall rancid vibes

methods include writnf said regrets onto paper and destroying it, cleaning a room and spinning counterclockwise from east to west, and repainting

day of sacrifice is Not About Sacrificing Shapes.

it's a day where you sacrifice something, whether it be tangible or not, for your goals

and it does Not Involve Murder

day of rejuvenation can be seen as the day of cleansing's opposite

instead of purging excess negativity, this day is about letting optimism into your life. the volcano and river region celebrate this day especially, allowing their denizens to bathe in the lava/water and reflect on how they could begin to see life in a positive yet realistic way

day of confession (might not be final) is about confessing to things you've done, whether they be good or bad. in the olden days it was celebrated by setting up a giant bulletin board and having people sneak out at night to post on it, but modern technology had made it a lot moe convenient.

this day doubles as a way to give heroes the honor they deserve, and to help change the ways of those who are less virtuous

the final day is the day of lights. this is also the new years of paradise

the day of lights is the treeangle's "farewell" gift to its creations that although it may not be capable of being with them physically, it will set aside a day for them to celebrate what makes them unique and amazing. this day involves a whole day of setup that amounts to a huge night of revelry. a lot of pretty natural phenomena (aurora borealis, bioluminescent waves, etc) happen during that day as well. and this is one of the few days the strict law dictating appropriate usage of shape magic is relaxed.
