Goddess Majora, Embodiment of Chaos. Also just a really large bug.
Below the cut is some lore + a little bit of me rambling about Majora’s design (and then a little more ab hylia)
Some Majora Lore
Not created by the golden goddesses but instead came to be from Hylia and Demise’s growing conflict with one another. After attempting to take Hylia down herself, Majora was then sealed away underneath the canyons of Ikana.
She would, later on at least, be reawakened by a still-mortal Ko’jin as Hylia’s seal began to weaken. She fled deeper into Ikana’s canyons and disguised herself as one of its people. Coincidentally, Ikana’s missing queen reunited with her people around the same time.
Ko’jin is chosen by Golden Goddess Farore to be her opposition.
Design thoughts
Some changes from her previous post, a more simple design so I can draw her more often. I really like her new wing patterns, mimicking phoenix (or peacock) feathers as a couple other deities do as well. She’s just a bit more obvious about it.
A lot of the deities, spirits, and other characters that answer under Hylia (or are allied with her) have diamonds in their designs as an homage to her as a common theme (FD’s dragon whiskers as an example). Majora just straight takes the pheonix feathers and runs with it. No diamonds on this damn bug, just pure imitation.
On that note, though, it makes me kinda wanna redesign her antennae to go further. But we’ll see how I feel when I start drawing her more.

I do love the time wimey displacement of this au.
Ingo meeting Irida before she technically meets him, Irida seeing a younger ingo in his own time and place, etc.
I mean I'm sure it causes all sorts of conflicts in Irida as she knows hell disappear one day, but it's also fun imagining the moments where she makes a connection hisui-future ingo and the unova-past Ingos. Like things about him she couldnt explain before (and he couldn't properly explain about himself) but now that she's here she's able to go like "oh OH ohhhhh. That's why he said/did the thing"
When Irida notices that warden Ingo remembered more than they ever realized and yet couldn't remember who Emmet is

What makes the legend of the last hero stand out among the more prominent messianic figures in the story is its ‘every man’ sort of feel. The Prince That Was Promised can only ever be royal - since the existing requirement is to be born of Aerys and Rhaella’s line, who ruled as king and queen. Azor Ahai is interpreted in story as being related to a king. Yet the last hero was just some guy. His tale has been passed down across millennia, but he himself remains anonymous. We don’t know what family or region he came from. He may have been low born or high born, it doesn’t really matter. And what’s most interesting is how GRRM chooses to parallel his story in the published material. Waymar Royce, Bloodraven, Coldhands, Sam Tarly, Bran Stark, and Jon Snow all serve as narrative mirrors for the last hero. But there’s are quite a few differences. Waymar Royce is a highborn lord, but Jon and Bloodraven are bastards. Jon Snow is the typical fantasy warrior, yet Sam and Bran are GRRM’s deconstructions of what it looks like when a boy who doesn’t fit the chivalric ideal of knighthood gets to be the hero. Jon and Bran are also especially noteworthy because they are at the heart of one GRRM’s core thesis statements:
“I have a tender spot in my heart for cripples and bastards and broken things.”
So as a propaganda piece, I'd imagine that repeating this tale goes a long way. Imagine you're some unassuming kid from Flea Bottom. You'll never be the promised prince because you're not related to the king. It's a bit hard to be Azor Ahai because where in seven hells will you get dragon eggs, and how will you attain the magic required to bring them to life? But then you COULD be the last hero. Regardless of who your parents are and what type of blood you've got, you too can gather all your friends and go on a hero's journey. And isn't that what children's dreams are made of?

ROUND ONE: MATCH-UP SIX
Corrected! I uh. I accidentally set it to one day at first. Forgive me and please reblog this version instead.
Remember, this is NOT about who would win in a fight. This is about who makes the best leader for Mandalore as a whole.
Explanation post
Seeding
Propaganda below the cut! You can submit more on this post and I will reblog it back to here!
CAPTAIN REX
Anon: VOTE FOR MY BOY REX! Reasons: I have created a short poem to convince you. Rose are Red, The 501st is blue, He survived one war, He and Wolffe are the last two. Trust in him, he is great. And he can defy fate. This last verse is late One last thing before I dissipate Idk how to make poems, mate
@spacetime1969: This man managed to handle Anakin Skywalker, Ahsoka Tano, and the 501st without going crazy.
Anon: Rex ran herd on Anakin for years surely the entirety of the Mandalorian populace cant be worse.
Anon: Rex is a good commander! And I think he could totally win the darksaber if he tried.
JASTER MEREEL
Anon: Jaster is the one who should rule Mandalore and all Mandalorians, although he started small he searched to make a new code of conduct for Mandalorian bounty hunters, he tries to keep the culture intact yet keep Mandalore progressive and not stuck in the past and from killing each other.
@spacetime1969: He literally rewrote what it means to be Mandalorian, and he created an entire movement around said philosophy that had a good chance of becoming the controlling party of Mandalore if he hadn't been assassinated. What more do you want?
Anon: Jaster for the win, he's the most recent one who actually knows some shit (as much as I love Din Djarin this poor man doesn't know ANYTHING), besides Jango and Boba but they're both very unstable individuals.
@nerdpickle: Jaster, his philosophy perfectly balanced tradition and reform, keeping the best of both worlds, he was also one of the few people chosen by the people
