Cheka, Leona and Falena watch a harmless children's show about dogs
I think these two are definitely the type to be susceptible to the bluey copium. Especially envying bluey and bingo's sibling relationship lol

Hi can you tell me except Ace and sebek dads is there anyone else Who are magicless? I remember somewhere on Tumblr, someone saying that Eric venue was non mage too yet i watch the playthrough of chapter 5 and it was never mentioned so idk if it's true or not. -sarah
Tumblr media
That’s the trouble with TWST lore 😅 It’s not always contained in the main story or in a place where you think it would be relevant; a lot of additional details are scattered throughout events, vignettes, and/or voice lines. For example, the bit about Eric Venue being magicless is said in Vil’s Broomquet vignettes.
As for the family members that have been confirmed as magicless:
Ace’s dad
Jack’s younger brother
Kalim’s immediate family (excluding his mom)
Eric Venue (Vil’s dad)
Epel’s family (excluding his grandma and great-grandma)
Sebek’s dad
Gidel (counting him since he’s Fellow’s “little brother”)
The family members who are confirmed mages:
Riddle’s parents
Ace’s older brother
Falena/Farena (Leona’s older brother)
Azul’s grandma
Marja (Epel's grandma) and Epel's great grandma
Kalim’s mom
Kalim is also noted as having a relative that was Scarabia’s previous dorm leader; by virtue of being a NRC student, this relative is also a mage
Idia’s dad and Aidne (grandma on his dad’s side)
Meleanor (Malleus’s mom) and Maleficia (Malleus's grandma on his mom’s side)
Sebek’s mom, Baul (grandpa on his mom’s side), and two older siblings (1 brother, 1 sister)
… “Silver’s dad” Lilia 😂
Rollo’s little brother
Fellow (I’m counting him since he’s Gidel’s “brother”)
Please note: these lists are NOT comprehensive; it is possible that other family members are magicless but it is implied rather than openly stated. For example, Ruggie says that there are not a lot of mages where he comes from—therefore, it is highly likely that Granny Bucchi is magicless.
It is also entirely possible for some family members to be mages without the text outright saying it. For example, siblings and younger relatives (such as Najma or Cheka) may manifest magic at a later date and we would never know unless the characters tell us. We can also infer that some characters are mages (ie Malleus's dad, Levan, is most likely a mage since he is fae and married to the crown princess), but again, these lists only include what is expressly stated in official TWST content.

hiiiiii! ugh, i am not sure if you take requests? but if you do, can i ask you leona one, where reader is the descendant of scar, and afterglow savanna always treats her like shit, thinking she will try to kill farena or leona?? idk tbh the dynamic between her and others, but maybe with a prompt "why are you keep protecting me?" "because if anyone kills you it will be me?" BUT NOT ANGSTY MORE LIKE CHEESY ONE like she is joking she has no plans to do so!!
(also maybe she is friend with azul bc both of them manipulative masterminds idk)
A/N: that's actually sounds so fun. i am genuinely invested, though, i had never thought that someone will ask me to write something. but, oh, darling, thank you. i would love do that more, so if anyone wants, i am open to your ideas.
LEONA KINGSCHOLAR × READER, WHO IS SCAR'S DESCENDANT
warnings: not detailed mention of blood and some threats with mentions of gore? it is lighter than it sounds.
Hatred followed you from a very young age. And it wasn't necessarily yours.
You were six, when you learned to understand that kindness will not help you survive. But cruelty will.
Abandoned, throwed away, you were nothing in the world of kings and queens. Your whole existence were cursed from the day you made your first breath, and no one was going to tell you why. Why you were so hated by the whole country, by every single person in your motherland? Why your mother turned away from you? Why you were considered to be dangerous?
But the more you grew, the more you understood that it is for the better. Their hatred, their suspicion, their rage. It made you the independent person. The predator.
And you were fine with that.
At some point, you stopped caring about what all of them thought. Instead, it filled you with even more power to move forward.
And so you survived. Proudly, with chin up to the sky, ignoring the way others treated you.
Savannaclaw wasn't necessarily bad, though. You thought it will be; Farena Kingscholar never being kind to you, and his kingdom therefore, too. But Savannaclaw was different. There, your only king was Leona. And Leona didn't care whose descendant you were.
If anything, he never even took it seriously.
”Why the fuck I would care about that cursed king?” He spitted it out once, as Ruggie asked him in what he thought was a whisper, as you passed by. ”Stupid lion is dead for a long time. Why would she care about him, even?”
And that was it. Savannaclaw never acted like you were enemy, no one glared at you with participation, no one was suspicious about your every single world.
You were free.
And the freedom you had gained, finally, made your loyalty to Leona stronger.
So, you didn't really like, when someone offended him.
It was your job to annoy him, to try break his trust towards you by cynical remarks—”oh, my King, you shouldn't trust me with your nephew. What if I tear him apart?” or ”Tsh, tsh, little lion... Haven't your brother told you? You shouldn't really turn your back to the hungry animal,”—even if he never cared.
And if someone tried to steal your job... Well, that would be really-really bad.
”Remind me once again,” you yawned, throwing a grape in your mouth, ”why I am not allowed to fight that Pomfiore boy for you?”
Azul chuckled.
”You got almost expelled twice, tigerfish. I am flatted that you are willing to try it for me, too, but I have more interesting ways to get my revenge.”
Azul was probably the strangest friend you ever had—and you had the only one, who was Jack—but it wasn't necessarily bad. He always got you involved in his plans, and as both of you were thinking about this or that in complete solitude, scheming and laughing, you thought it actually was nice.
”I caught him applying foundation on his face a week ago,” you share with him quietly. ”On the whole face. And let me say, he is not that perfect without it, Zul.”
He gasped dramatically.
”And that after interview, where he says he hates unnatural beauty?!”
”Mhm.”
”Tigerfish, you are so cruel,” he smiled. ”I love it.”
”Sure you are,” your ears moved by itself and you turned your head on the right. ”Do you hear that?”
Voices. Very loud, very angry voices. Usually, you would ignore that, but it was a familiar scent that made you move forward, ignoring Azul's question.
”Are you fucking insane, Hunt?”
”Oi, oi, I only cared to see if you would react immediately!”
You groaned.
Fucking Pomfiore kids.
As you stepped closer, your annoyed expression shifted to a worried one. There was a crossbow in Rook's arms, and Leona was holding an arrow is his hand, face angry.
So, it was it: little hunter tried to hunt Leona down.
Before he acknowledged your presence, you moved forward, raising Rook by his collar, right from behind.
”Don't get frightened, little one,” you said, voice, despite a smirk, vicious. ”I only cared to see if you would react immediately.”
Leona scoffed.
”Aha, how nice! Jolie Lionne! Had you came to save your pretty prince from the trouble?”
You frowned.
”He is the king, hunter.” Your turned him to face you properly, still leaving him hanging in the air. ”Listen to me, sweet human, the next time I see you trying to shoot him, I will scratch your eyes with my claws, and eat them in front of your fake housewarden. And then, I am going to make a feast. Do you hear me?”
His face scrunched for a second, but he put his usual smile on the face rather quickly.
”My, my... We were merely playing! But, fine, fine. As you wish, jolie lionne!”
You freed him, and this time he was rather quick with leaving.
Other students shun you actively, so it wasn't surprising. Beyond Savannaclaw, Azul, and, well, Lillia Van Rouge, other either ignored your existence or avoided you in fear. You had one the hell of the reputation, and your own attitude never helped to fix the damage that rumours left on you.
”I didn't ask you to do that,” Leona clicked his tongue, moving to your right side.
”You never do,” you shrugged. ”I don't really care.”
Maybe it was the fact that you never denied his power, never looked down at him, that helped him to make a peace with the fact that you were so eager to protect him. Because, well, in the beginning, he thought it was offensive.
”You are so fucking strange that, do you know that?” You repeated your previous action, and he continued. ”If I were you, I would love to kill me. And my brother. Especially him. But you keep doing that. Keep guarding me like a lapdog. Why?”
Why?
You wondered about it too, once. But the answer came easily to you.
It was a boy with unusual scar on his young face that stared at you without hatred the first. Simply stared, without any particular emotion, and handed you a little red flower, before leaving.
And though, he probably didn't remember it...
It was still him, who looked at you without despise in his eyes, when both of you grew up, meeting here and there, as your presence should have been always controlled and seen by the royal family.
And it was him, who made Savannaclaw respect you, as he joined this school, a year later than you did.
It was always him.
”Having trouble with creating another lie?” He smirked, moving to stop in front of you, clearly disliking the fact that you ignore his presence.
”You want to know why, Leona?” You tilted your head, meeting his curious eyes. "Because I consider you to be the King, more than your brother ever will, and therefore, I should protect you.”
Before he opened his mouth, you caught him by the chin, moving him closer. He stared at you, not annoyed, but quite lost by this action. Your eyes shimmered with a familiar hunger that always lived inside you.
A hunger for fame. Acceptance. Peace. Blood. Cruelty.
Love.
”And because,” your lips brushed the corner of his, as you breathed out on his cheek, ”if anyone ever tries to rip out your golden heart, my King, it is going to be me.”
His lips curled in a same wicked smile that played on your face.
And as his arms fall on your hips, he accepted the game.
”What a coincidence,” his whisper came out like a purr. ”Because if ever try to rip our my heart, my dear Consort, I will allow it to you.”
A laugh that escaped your chest sounded so taunted that others would find it scary.
But you know Leona didn't. In fact, he enjoyed it very much.
And both of you had a very long journey to find out what else you enjoy about each other. Gladly, you had plenty of time for that.

Hehehe. Part two baby! Be prepared! (Pun absolutely intended) Also, to the people who are yelling the the tags, I love you guys! I read them all and I can't say thank you enough. It genuinely means a ton!🩷🩷🩷
Enough of me being sappy,
🌻Savanaclaw🌻
Tumblr media
Disclaimer: Savanaclaw is like lowkey my favourite dorm, not in terms of redesigns but I love the characters. Huge Leona fan and Jack and Ruggie are my children so I will not stop talking about them. You have been warned.
First up, though y'all have seen him already,
♟️Leona Kingscholar♟️
(he/him) - Unlabelled but doesn't care about gender
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I snuck in a lil treat of my work in progress housewarden card. The jumpscare it was to toggle my version with the og card underneath, y'all. Am I making my version of pretty much all his cards? Yes. Will they ever be finished? Who knows? Anyways, onto the headcanons...
- Physically, I feel like I changed a lot and not a lot at the same time. I gave him some more scars which I guarantee you are from really stupid accidents.
- Piercing on his ears just cause I felt they fit him and snakebites because (I'm so down bad for them) it gave the illusion of fangs even with his mouth closed. Gave him moles cause they're pretty.
- I textured his hair and gave him a shit ton more because if the og design won't AT LEAST give him fluffier hair, what's the point? Yana Toboso, if you don't give this man a high ponytail in the Clubwear Card, I will hunt you down. Also made his front, larger braids the colour of Cheka's (And presumably Farena's) hair because honestly? They didn't really look similar enough? Also threw in some smaller braid to 'tie' them in more (haha).
- Someone gave him like this cool inverted pupil due to a scene in the movie but I simplified it to basically heterochromia.
- This might be hardly noticeable but I give give him slightly more muscle? I felt it suited him more idk.
- Onto non-physical headcanons, he has 💕depression💕! This is kinda not up for debate given how much he exemplifies the symptoms. Hell, he made me realise that I may have depression cause I was like, "Damn, he's so relatable, not wanting to get out of bed, no motivation to do anything, struggling to care of himself. He just like me frfr- oh..."
- By the way, I see a lot of people talking about Ruggie's reaction to the fallout of Book 2 but I think that on Leona's side, he felt horrible and probably locked himself away for a WHILE. I think his mental state must have been terrible and I'm SO PISSED HIS FCKING PROBLEMS NEVER GOT BROUGHT AGAIN WTF! Well, I'm on Book 4 so maybe???
- Anyways, I saw someone posit he could also be autistic, more on the asymptomatic side which is actually growing on me a lot. Picky eater, doesn't like tighter clothes, not fond of loud noises, smaller things but I'm a fan.
- Really random but I like the idea that he's one of those people who kids love for literally no reason, he just doesn't like to be around them.
- Is actually extremely book smart, though that's kinda already canon but I mean this bitch was a nerd when he was younger. Knows way too much on various topics, especially about his homeland.
- He can purr. I know lion's can't but there are literal mer and fae. He's just a big kitty. My and Idia like 🤞 when it comes to thinking of Leona as just a big meow. I have a cat who doesn't like anyone but I'm her favourite, I could win him over.
I could talk about him for sooooo long tbh so I'll shut up now.
Anyways, now for my boy,
💸Ruggie Bucchi💸
(he/she) Bigender - Biromantic Asexual
Tumblr media
God I love my bigender child.
- I made him black, though probably mixed and gave him vitiligo for both visual flavour and a mild(?) reference to like hyena spots?
- He originally was going to have her hair down but then I realised how many of them had their natural hair already so I gave him dreads? I'll have to render them out at some point.
- Gave her more scars too, since she grew up in a more rough environment. Made his eyes really big and cute 'cause I feel like she can get extras when she hits 'em with the puppy eyes.
- Probably got mad ADHD, has to constantly be fiddling with something or another. Wears spinny rings a lot. He's actually really good at paying attention in class and likes to learn.
- Steals from Leona, whether it's money or items or clothes he leaves out (which, while Leona would never admit, he purposefully leaves out for Ruggie).
- Oh and a post pointed out that hyenas can purr, so have fun with that.
That's mostly it for now, but expect this list to grow lmao.
Now for,
💪Jack Howl💪
(he/him) - Queer (he doesn't know lol, just knows he likes dudes at this point)
Tumblr media
Not me struggling to find a weight emoji (I failed) 😭😭😭
- Ah, I made a reference in the Heartslabyul post about my concern about darker skinned characters with white hair and I was mainly talking about Jack. I also had to make Kiki, and I figured that wolves have pretty naturally salt-and-pepper hair, so why not. I actually love how it looks omg, it's very pretty and marbled.
- Gave him darker skin, since I headcanon him as black but I did see someone who designed him as indigenous so it might change in the future idk. Also it makes his eyes almost glow and I love that for him.
- He gets more scars too, though likely from sports rather than fights or anything.
- He's autistic. Apologies that so many of them are autistic to me, not only am I autistic but like, the way they're written speaks to me. His whole moral compass being the reason for Book 2 playing out like it did was an immediate 'yes' from me. He's my boy and my son and I will fistfight anyone that smack talks him (looking at those Savannaclaw NPCs in one of Deuce's vignettes).
- Oh, I forgot. He listens to K-Pop. I don't know if it?s canon that he has younger siblings, though I totally think he does, but one of them accidentally got him into K-Pop and J-Pop so whenever he's at the gym, that's what he's listening to lmao. Specifically girl groups, he likes them enough that he knows all their names. He insists it's out of respect, which it is but he's also lowkey a stan too lol.
- Generally has a weakness for cute things, even if he doesn't show it. Also a total plant nerd omg. He could instruct you on pretty much any houseplant on how much sunlight and water it needs, seasonal changes, etc.
Final note is that I'll make a separate post about him and Epel, cause I love them and have some headcanons there too.
Now for my ocs!
💎Kiki Adebayo💎
Third Year - (she/her) Transfem - Aromantic Demisexual Sapphic
Tumblr media
- Twisted from Rafiki? I think that's his name, the baboon. I'm crying sobbing throwing up that you can't see her eyes in this.
- She got the white hair since the fur on a baboon is directly white and took inspiration from Dislyte's Isis design. Her eyes are a pale gold like her earrings and she has red to blue eye shadow.
- Natural resting bitch face but she's just tired most of the time. She'd probably be the actual vice housewarden as I think her family has been close to Leona's for a long time, though she earned her spot with her own skills.
- Additionally, I wouldn't call her and Leona 'childhood friends' but she's known him for a long time. She's like, concerned about him as he's changed so much but she also worries that it's not her place. As a result, she tries to make sure Ruggie's not taking on too much and handles most of the dormhead duties herself.
God, she's so pretty omg anyways
👟Mandisa Jelani👟
Second Year - (they/she) Demi-girl - Pansexual
Tumblr media
- Mandisa is also based on the hyenas, though I don't know if her and Ruggie are from the same pack necessarily.
- I gave her scars, moles, and some piercings as well, I just felt like they'd suit her.
- I think she and Jack would be relatively similar in terms of personality, I see her being the gruffer upperclassmen. I think she'd be rather protective of the first years, knowing how harsh the older dorm members can be and she does her best to make everyone feel welcome.
Next up,
🤘Rocío Chávez🤘
Second Year - (she/her but doesn't really care) Transfem - Panromantic Asexual
Tumblr media
You'll never guess who she's based on /j
- My girlie based on Kronk from The Emperor's New Groove! Yes, she is a big and buff bimbo? Himbo? I don't know but she's got a heart of gold and head empty.
- I wanted to keep her physique cause it always annoys me when people genderbend a character but don't keep them proportional to their og design. Mini tangent over, she so silly I love her.
- She and my Yzma character met as first years and have been inseparable since, though I'll talk more about that later.
- Not a massive ton of characterisation sine it's been a while since I've seen this movie too but I'm always open to suggestions.
Finally, my silly
🎸Abayomi Furaha🎸
First Year - (she/they/it) Nonbinary - Bisexual
Tumblr media
- My final baby from Savanaclaw, also based on a hyena. Specifically the lil bug-eyed one, but I gave her a lazy eye instead. Not sure how well that comes across but I tried.
- She's got scars, was definitely bullied as a kid and I think that once the dorm members consider her a part of the pack, they'd be super overprotective as a result.
- That being said, she's more than capable of defending herself as she's good at various martial arts.
- She's into rock music and joined the music club as a result. Probably a drummer or guitarist as I think she's insecure about her voice.
- She and Mandisa are quite close and she convinced them to dye the edges of her hair red. Abayomi wanted touch up hers and managed to get Mandisa in on to lol.
That's all for now! Stay tuned for Octavinelle and thank you so much for reading!

My friend and I were talking and we decided an RSA event would be so cute. Like imagine-
Crowley goes to Mc and says he needs some information(call it classified or we skip it cause it doesn’t matter) and that they need to go to rsa and spy on them
And then Mc runs into Che’nya almost immediately and he knows something is up but not what so he brings them to his room to steal his extra uniforms.(Che’nya is up for shenanigans he’s gonna get the popcorn)
And Mc gets there and(while I firmly believe this with my heart and soul Disney may disappoint) sees a painting of Farena in some “big important people who came here” thing and have a moment about that and Che’nya straight up doesn’t even give it a second glance.
Then we get to see Neige, maybe see how he and Che’nya interact with each other, and we can see the dwarves of course but I think it’d be better they don’t recognize us(maybe a pre-harveston event even pre book 5 or Neige abd the dwarves are just very stupid idk) and Mc is just very uninterested in them.
Honestly I think it’d be funny if we abandoned grim for this because he’s got the biggest mouth ever and I can only imagine how bad that would be. Even funnier if grim shows up anyway and we literally have to carry him with a hand over his mouth
There’s so much potential we could even see a couple more heros(I’d love if Farena/Cheka showed up it’d be funny but idk how it’d make sense) like we could see the prince the tweels and Azul went to school with.
Honestly I just wanna see the inter workings and interactions of RSA boys because we don’t really see them interact aside from Neige and the dwarves. Also o wanna know how it runs and works and like are dorms just whatever? I wanna know how they see the great seven are seen in RSA. I wanna know just a little more and see some more Hero characters

I mean Malleus does get a lot of fan service? Like not simping wise but like main character wise. So that is a way to get players to OMG LOOK AT HIM MY HUSBAND 😍😍 kind of way but as a Malleus kisser, yes I absolutely agree, he is overrated.
Give some love to other characters, Ace, Deuce, any of the first years actually. Kalim! Silver! Those two always get the least attention in the second years! Show them some love after what’s happened/been going on in their chapters!
Rook! Trey! Cater! CATER PLEASE I NEED MORE CONTENT OF HIM GUYS 😭 (I swear I’m totally not a light pop music lover)
NEIGE LEBLANC! He always gets villianized by the toxic Vil fans or something. (Normal Vil fans, Ilysm) He’s not “faking it” or “bragging to Vil”. He’s…genuinely trying to be a good person. Like Kalim. The VDC, yeah I agree was questionable but NRC didn’t do as well either (in the story, they missed their dance steps which I don’t blame since they were exhausted beforehand from a lovely who’s overblot) but Neige won cause of Rook. I see the win as a “the hero always win” cliche from Disney movies. (Ex. See Dame of Notre Dame. Disney ver and og ver) Guys…just because he won doesn’t give you guys the right to ooc him completely? 🤨 sorry. I have an obsession with him 😔
Overall, the whole cast needs some light shone on them. But for me? When I look at the Eng Twst fandom, these guys I have to swipe up to find crumbs of them. I would love for them to get love.
SHOUT OUT TO EVERY DORM, NEIGE, RIELLE AND CHENYA, ROLLO, THE NEW DUO, FARENA, IDK GUYS EVERYONE!!!!
NO LITERALLY YORUE EXACTLY RIGHT. and thats exactly what i mean he gets a lot of attention from the game devs so they dont really. yk. focus on much other characters.
BUT I AGREE W SILVER HE NEEDS WAY MORE LOVE ITS RIDUCULOUS S?????/ PEOPLE DONT PAY NEARLY ENOUGH ATTENTION TO HIM HES SO SWEET ?!?!?!?
can i get a big yes on the trey and cater love AND A BIGGER YES ON THE ROOK LOVE HE DESERVES SO MUCH AJSHFDHAGSFDHASG
OKAY TO BE FAIR i used to be creeped out my neige because he just seemed too perfect but since playing through ALL of book five and the beginning on book six ive grown to appreciate him.
but yea eng twst is DUMB!!!!!

Which dorm are you planning to do next for your NRC vs RSA series?
I'm not entirely sure yet, to be honest. In terms of dorms, Savanaclaw is next on my list of favorites so I would love to do something for them, but we've already got Simba and Mufassa in Cheka and Falena (Farena?? Idk. Translations are weird), so it would definitely have to be a different sort of 'rivalry' going on there. Scarabia is also going to be a bit of a doozy because Kalim is sort of already the 'hero' equivalent. So that would take some finagling.
I do have an idea for Heartslaybul! I'm not just not 100% comfortable with writing all their characterizations, so that may take a hot sec. I'm also meh on Ignihyde in general (maybe I'll like Idia more after his book comes out in English. Or maybe not. Idk. Dude just rubs me the wrong way for some reason).
I do also have a lot of ideas for two other little series that have been bubbling around in my brain, so I may end up doing something with those too! Either way, I have a big exam coming up so I'm going to be spending pretty much all of my time cramming for that for the moment! I'll probably try to brainstorm a bit in my spare time, but mostly I'm going to be curled up in my desk chair trying not to sob over all my notes lol

Okay, I'll admit that I relate to Leona's hobby of playing chess. Particularly, I’m very fascinated by chess and its battle-like aesthetic while you’re playing… and finally after a lot of years, my parents could buy me a cheap chess board so I could play!
It’s very cheap plastic, the forms aren’t very refined, the pieces are tiny… but it’s honest and it’s enough. Being happy with that, some headcanons for Leona playing chess came to mind~
(posting this at Leona's birthday bc I didn't knew what day could be best to show this to the world... idk why I'm that complicated)
Tumblr media
♚ 〉Leona never felt like he could ask for more than he deserved. Since ever the servants of the palace always meddled or murmured on everything he did or didn’t, just like other family relatives (not that anyone would let the King or Farena know). Silently suffering, Leona didn’t bother asking for gifts and just accepted anything the family would throw at him on holidays or birthdays… but not with chess. No. Leona always asked for those;
♚ 〉He doesn’t want to bother remembering it but Farena was the one that taught him how to play. Little Leona just saw his big brother playing this strange board game with funny pieces and, with all the patience and love, Farena told him about every detail of the game as like telling him a story;
♟〉Deep down, both of them miss those good old days. When Farena was not old enough to keep with the regent prince responsibilities and Leona was young enough to maintain a certain innocence;
♚ 〉Leona always picked up the black pieces (or red, depending on the chess collection). At first, it was for the color. Leona’s hair is darker than his brother so it was a conscious decision choosing the pieces he most identified with himself. Later on, picking him black pieces meant accepting that he will always be the number two. Never the first to move. As for today, Leona carries both ways of thinking with the addition of knowing that “making the first move” does not necessarily mean victory. Who knows what your enemy does in the shadows? The vantage is his;
♚ 〉Leona only lost against Farena. When he plays with other people, he always win;
♚ 〉Malleus tried to ask for them to play chess once but Leona refused, saying that he “doesn’t want to waste his time like that” in a sarcastic way. The real motive though is Leona fearing that Malleus can win at another thing he enjoy and really puts effort into;
♟〉Rook also tried to ask him for playing chess and Leona lightly threatned to throw a chess board at him (Ruggie stopped it on time);
♚ 〉Probably has dozens of chess collections that he takes good care of. His favorite is one that’s celebratory of the anniversary of Sunset Savannah that it’s animal themed. The King and Queen were replaced by a Lion and his Lioness, the Bishop was a mandrill (like Rafiki), the Horse became a warthog and the Tower became a meerkat. The Pawns are Hyenas;
♚ 〉He doesn’t know about this but Cheka is secretly trying to learn chess so they can play together. But the current results are: “why old people like this game so much?” ("Cheka, my son, Uncle Leona isn't that old...")
♟〉not me getting obsessed with this chess design lol no not me

I just saw your oc masterlist and I always thought falenas wife’s name is Safiya or Safaya! Glad someone agrees😂
🍓💌 Strawbetty replied to your letter!
Referencing my OC & world building masterlist (which I haven’t touched in a while, now that I’m looking at it lol)
Hi! I’m trying to remember how I ended up naming Leona’s sister-in-law as Safiya last year. I think it was cuz I saw that Simba’s mom’s name is “Sarabi” in The Lion King movie, so I wanted Cheka’s mom to have a name that started with “S,” too.
I was looking up names in Swahili and found “Safiya,” which I think means “pure” in Swahili. I also learned that Cheka means “laugh” in Swahili, and my brain kinda did this thing where it put Safiya’s and Cheka’s name meanings together and I thought of how “pure laugh” reminded me of Farena/Falena.
So in my own weird way (and I hope I’m not offending any native Swahili speakers), I thought of how Farena/Falena is a canonically joyful guy who laughs a lot, and how he would probably view his wife and his son as his “pure laugh.” Idk where I’m going with this but sometimes when you’re laughing genuinely, it could mean you’re genuinely happy. Thus, I like to think Farena/Falena views Safiya and Cheka as his “pure laugh” because they’re the greatest joys of his life.
djdkdkldldd again, idk where I’m going with this and I hope I’m not offending any native Swahili speakers. I’m always open to learning more about Swahili and correcting any of the mistakes I’ve made in this post :)
And yes in this household we stan Safiya Kingscholar :)🫶 I hope we’ll get official character designs of Leona’s sister-in-law and Farena/Falena someday
Sincerely,
🍓 Strawbetty

TWST MEMORIES 6: Leona Kingscholar (Age 8)
Actually teared up while writing this idk why i made his so much more angsty than the others
TW: Violence, some body horror, mentions of injuries, assassinations, flashbacks
Leona struggles to come to terms with what had happened… how could Farena ever understand?
"And I do say-!" Their father's royal advisor drones on, yapping on and on. Leona stifles a groan as he rolls his eye, the other one covered in a thick layer of plaster and bandages. 
"Farena-!" He mumbles under his breath, grabbing the attention of the eighteen year old. The boy hums and looks over at him, ear twitching. "Make 'im stop!" 
"He's just trying to help us," Farena mumbles back, smiling in the direction of his eight year old brother, who actually groans and makes the bird beastman pause, whipping his head around so fast Leona was surprised to see that his hair feathers were still in place and not falling to the ground, leaving bald patches over the older man's head. He stifles a chuckle as the man narrows his eyes down at him.
"Well, your majesties~" He begins pompously, dragging out their titles as Leona huffs and crosses his arms, making his older brother chuckle in amusement. "After the events of last week, you two need to learn how to properly take over the throne, especially with... both the King and Queen unable to..."
Farena shoots a nervous look at his younger brother, his warm brown eyes trailing to the bandages that cover his left eye. His younger brother stares down at the ground, small hands turned to fists as he glares up at the advisor, previous joking mood cast off to the side. Farena takes a step closer, to wrap his tail around his brother's, but the young Leona takes another step, just out of reach of his brother. 
Leona takes a shaky breath, feeling the tears of fear well up in his eyes from the memories of what had happened, his stomach turning to ice and head spinning, the long scratch and his eye throbbing at the memory. 
His mother and him taking a walk through the pridelands, the assassin, his mother attempting to protect him, the way the man tried to slice through his eye-
"Leona..."
His father seeing the fate of his wife, his son on the ground, screaming and writhing on the ground as he clutches the wound over and on his eye. The thick, ashy scent of his father's magic turning bitter and pungent... the ink that consumed the assassin and his father alike... 
Farena dragging him off, despite Leona's claws digging into his arms and his pleas to go to their parents, Leona begging him to let him help, or for Farena to stop being a coward and do something himself.
"Leona!" The boy jumps, wiping the tears that had fallen from his eyes. He feels his face flush in embarrassment, but he's unable to focus on the feeling any longer. The image of his mother was burned into his eyes, one Leona wishes he could yank out of his brain through his ears and stomp until it was mush along the Savanna's grassy floor.
The queen- his mother- jumping in front of him, fangs bared against their attacker, the man's swift movements, his mother falling to the ground and the boy not having enough time to comprehend what had happened before the man's dagger was against his head-
Leona huffs and storms off, ignoring the shouts of his brother and the advisor. He storms through the palace, glaring at any servants who dared to look at him in that way. 
"It's your fault," Their eyes say as they duck their heads and scurry away. The boy picks up his pace until he's at his room, slamming the door behind him and locking it before burying himself under his blankets, entire body- from the tips of his ears to the fluff of the end of his tail- quivering. He pulls the ends of his ears down until the bases ache, curling up under the warmth of the blankets. He gulps down air, tears spilling out of his eyes. 
He feels deep longing in his chest, a dull ache that pulls at his heartstrings until it's too much for the boy to bear. He wants to hear his mother's laughter, her soft voice singing a song that rings throughout the Savanna's many festivals. His mother's deep humming as she tells the story of the Circle of Life only serves to dig him deeper into the abyss he was sinking into. 
"Not fair..." He mumbles into the blankets, feeling the wave of apathy wash over him as exhaustion shuts his system down. "None of it's fair." He closes his eyes, surrounded by the imaginary figure of his mother stroking his ears and brushing his hair, weaving the strands into intricate braids that framed his small face. 
"Leona...?" A small whisper from his doorway. The boy huffs and tries to bury himself deeper within the silk quilts and lavish pillows. 
"Go away!" He growls, only to feel a heavier weight sit itself upon the foot of the bed, making the mattress dip. "Farena..." He grumbles.
"I'm sorry, Leona,"
"Shut up."
"I tried to do what I thought was right, and when I saw your eye I just-"
"I said shut up!" The boy jumps out from under his small pile of pillows and blankets and glares at the boy, emerald green eye brimming with tears that threaten to spill. He feels a stab of pain as the bandage becomes loose from his movements, falling off his face. Farena's eyes go wide as he scoots closer to his brother, who instinctively reaches his hand up to his eye. The older boy holds his wrist in his large hand, hushing him. Leona, now without the energy to fight, allows the boy to lower his hand back down and run a delicate finger over the stitches. 
"Can you open your eye?"
"No..."
"Leona..." The boy huffs and slowly peeks his eye open, wincing at the bright light. Farena seems to take the hint and walks over to the curtains, pulling them shut . Leona slowly opens his left eye once more, struggling to keep it open due to the harsh burn that came with each blink and the way it blurred the rest of his vision. Farena's lips stretch into a deep frown as he moves to the hallway, mumbling something to a passing servant, who nods and scurries off. 
His brother moves to sit beside him on the bed. 
"I wanna see..." Leona mutters. 
"Hm?"
"I wanna see... what it looks like," Farena sighs and walks over to his brother's messy dresser, digging through a drawer until he finds a small mirror. He walks it over to his brother, whose hands shake and palms sweat as his mind races at what he could look like. He imagines a terrible monster with half of his face missing, revealing the bone of his skull. He takes the mirror in shaky hands and stares at his eye, opening the left one. 
The first thing he sees is the long scratch that cuts from the top of his forehead to the middle of his cheek, the stitches making his skin stretch as the area around it almost seems to glow in a deep red from the wound itself. He opens his eye once more, feeling sick at what he sees. 
The white of his eye is replaced with a bright red that makes his iris appear to be a brighter green than the other one. The iris itself appears folded in on itself, with the pupil bent out of shape and even leaking out of the small circle it was normally confined in. He tries to make both of his eyes face forward, but the injured one seems to naturally drift inwards, towards the bridge of his nose. 
Taking a shaky breath to try to gulp down the bile that rises in his throat, he puts the mirror down. 
"The doctor said you'll feel a lot better in a little bit," A knock at the door makes Farena stand up and he accepts what the servant hands him- some eye drops and an ice pack, along with new bandages and antiseptic. "Lean your head back-" Leona does as his brother tells him and he blinks the eye drops away, groaning and whining as he goes to rub his eye, but his brother stops him. 
"Now stand still," He holds Leona's smaller hand in his own and rubs the antiseptic along the scratch, making the boy hiss and try to scamper back. His brother's strength outweighs his own and he's forced to sit while he slowly cleans what he can and applies new bandages. "Better?"
Leona forces himself to nod. "Hey, come with me," Leona doesn't have the strength to argue as he's led through the palace by his brother. The boy looks out the tall, floor-length windows and gapes at the stars that glimmer, before staring down into the valley of the Savanna and seeing the lights of all the people of their kingdom, all their houses, he can even see the familiar glow of some bonfires in the more rural areas. From where their kingdom was, Leona swore he could see everyone who ever lived in the kingdom, each beastkin out there, even the humans who lived among them, some of the mer who often settled along the shores and riverbanks... 
His whole kingdom in one place. 
He feels a stab of pride at the thought before turning his head away and following his brother farther and farther from the castle, passing through the tall grasses until they find themselves in a huge field, surrounded by the chirping of crickets and the breeze through the tall trees and grasses. If Leona listened closely enough, he could even hear faint splashing from the watering hole most of the Savanna's animals drink from. 
"Why are we here...?"
"Did Mama and Baba ever tell you about the stars?"
"Mama did..." Leona begins, hesitant. In the back of his mind he feels a pang of annoyance and dread, believing that he was going to be lectured by his older brother again. 
"Well, you weren't born yet when Bibi and Babu passed... and when they did I couldn't understand why they wouldn't be in the palace anymore," Farena lets out a sad chuckle. "I was still very little too... even younger than you."
"Your point?"
"All the great kings and queens of the past are in the stars, and everyone who's ever loved us- loved you- watches over us from there."
"So that means..."
"Whenever you feel scared or alone... Mama will always be there to guide you. And when it's our time, so will Baba, and so will I," The teen's voice breaks at the end, and Leona looks up in shock, having seen nothing but a reassuring smile on his brother's face since the day of the accident. "I was scared, Leona."
"But... you're never scared."
"I was then," Farena sniffles, wiping at his eyes. "I was afraid that I was going to lose you too. I knew Mama and Baba would be fine on their own but you..."
"I'm strong enough!"
"That's not the point, Leona," He shuts the younger boy down. Leona sits in silence, ears flattening against his head at the tone that laces his brother's voice. "I'm older than you, I'm your big brother, for fucks sake-" That makes the boy jump- Farena never swore. "If I lost you too..." He trails off, wiping at his eyes once more and turning to his younger brother, who stares at the ground, chest filled with guilt- lead that wormed it's way into his chest cavity and ate away at any comfort he would feel, rising to his head and making his eye throb. "I'm proud of you Leona, more than I can put into words."
The boy, unable to come up with a response, stays quiet. 
"Now c'mere you-"
"Farena!" The boy yelps as his brother grabs him and begins to play wrestle with him, lightly biting at his arm. "Get off me you idiot!"
"You said you were strong!" Farena laughs, rolling with the boy in the grass before jumping off him and jogging away. Leona feels a surge of annoyance at his brother, unable to fight the grin that makes it's way onto his face. 
"I am!" He chases after the taller boy, growling and snarling as he launches himself on the boy's back. Their running disrupts the resting fireflies in the grass, the path they were running along illuminating and rising into the air the more they ran in circles, jumping on each other and biting at the other's ears, tail, arms, whatever was within reach. 
Leona giggles as he pins his brother down, laughing between deep breaths from all the running around. "Told you!"
"You did..." Farena pants, going limp on the ground. "You win!" The older boy laughs, a deep, booming laugh that nearly shakes the younger boy off his stomach. Leona rolls off him and onto his back as well, staring into the stars with him. The fireflies and the stars blend together as the boys' tails intertwine with one another silently. 
"Farena?" Leona whispers, just barely loud enough for the other beastman to hear. 
"Hm?"
"...Stick around, will ya?" His voice breaks at the end. 
"I always will, Leona," Farena whispers, reaching for his younger brother's hand. The boy takes it  and gives it a squeeze, met with a much stronger squeeze. "I always will."

Leona’s birthday is next week- and I want you and your followers thoughts on something I’ve seen in discords, Reddit posts, and chat rooms. In the first bday card- which would be the one English players can expect, also can’t wait to see who pies Leona on the JPN version he mentions his father brother, sister in law and Cheka… but not his mom. I’ve seen translations for the original Japanese version, and he still doesn’t mention his mom.
When asked about his family he mentions his sister in law, Cheka, Farena, and a sickly father. But nothing from his mother…
I’ve seen theories that range from she was incredibly distant to him since he was the second born, that she’s like Leona and wouldn’t be the kind to say happy birthday. And the one I think is sadly the most plausible is that she died shortly after Leona was born/ during his birth.
One point for this theory is that Leona and Farena have a huge age gap. Farena is older by ten years. One Reddit user mention that this might be why Queen Kingscholar died since she was much older then when she had her first born. I think it’s more likely that the first Queen had developed some kind of illness that got life threatening after she gave birth. And died shortly there after.
Leona was 15 when Cheka was born and who was there to scold him for missing the ceremony? Farena… it seems Like at some point during his life his dad stop caring about youngest child and being the big brother Farena picked up.
Another reason this might be true is the way he was treated when he was young. Assuming Leona/ Vil/ Jack/ Jamil got their UM when they were roughly 11/10 ish? Azul seem to prefect his by middle school and he studied very hard to do so. All four have what could be consider dangerous and deadly unique magic. Vil can poison anyone, Jack can turn into an apex predator, and Jamil can use mind control- Turing things to sand doesn’t seem that deadly, or that bad consider in canon people can track, brainwash, forcibly put people into comas- sand doesn’t seem that bad? but if he was already associated with death and pain then turning anything to sand just solidified how servants treated him as the bad or unworthy prince.
Idk if this makes sense? I don’t speak English as my first language and I’ve mostly been playing JPN twst and have only recently started playing the English version. Seeing your post about Leona make me happy and you seem to have a wonderful following and am curious to see what you and others think.
Best wishes
-a Leona lover🦁💛🤎🧡
That actually makes a lot of sense. I've kinda assumed that, in true Disney fashion, a parent who is not present is usually dead. So if Leonas father is sickly, and there is no mention of his mother, then she must not have been around since he was young for her to never be mentioned at all. (Also is his brothers name Farena in Japanese? I feel I see a few of variations in the spelling so I'm never sure. idk. I’m gonna go with Falena, because I play the English version, and the spelling I'm familiar with.) 
So her dying from childbirth would be an obvious reason for resentment. Or it could be a case of Falena just being the golden child. He was the crowned prince. The only child. A bright and cheerful boy that everyone loved. Leona was the unplanned one. The one who was more serious and "moody". No one in the palace, be it servant or family seemed to know how to connect with Leona. So they shifted all their attention and energy onto Falena. I don’t think anyone quite knew what to do with Leona. If I'm being honest, I don’t think Leona was planned. In my experience, most people I've known who have large gaps between children, usually didn’t plan it. Not all. But most. (This is assuming the king and queen weren’t trying for another and had trouble conceiving all that time. It’s possible. But considering how ignored and cast aside Leona was, I doubt that. That doesn’t feel like how you would treat the baby you’ve been wanting and trying for roughly a decade to have.)
I think in a way Leonas situation is similar to Jamils. Jamil was taught that he will always have to play second fiddle to Kalim. That for every game he won, he had to let Kalim win twice. Jamil is smart and powerful, but purposely kept his grades average so as not to outshine Kalim. Leona is smart. He is powerful, but no one has ever praised him for anything. He feels like no matter what he does, he will never surpass Falena in any meaningful way. He will always be second to his brother the same way Jamil had to be second to Kalim. The main difference is that Kalim and Jamil are learning how to equals, where as Leona doesn't see any way for him and Falena to have equal footing.
And I say all this as someone who has a similar age gap with their younger sibling: Falena probably did have to take over for their father at some point. Sure they had servants and nannies and tutors. There was no trouble finding people to take care of Leona. But who was there to raise him? The servants are gossiping about him. Their father is running a country, presumably by himself. And we don’t know when or for how long their father got sick. So he may not even be in good health at this point to have the energy for a small child. Who does that leave? Falena. I don’t think Falena is malicious or anything. I do think he loves Leona and cares about his well being. But I don’t think he knows how to connect or talk to him a way that isn’t that of an authority figure. Yes they're brothers, but its hard to form that relationship and connection when you're so used to being a parent rather than a sibling. When Leona misses Chekas ceremony, he isn’t talking like a brother, he’s talking like a parent scolding their child.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
This, coupled with the fact that the servants we see talking about Leona is an hushed tones, “Be quiet, someone will hear you!” Type deal. I don’t think Falena truly grasps the root of the issue. He’s the golden child, the one everyone praises, no one would ever talk about what they think of Leona to his face. So I don’t think he realizes how deep the resentment goes and why. I think to him, it just looks like Leona is mad he won’t ever be king. But Leona has never been shown he can do anything else, his efforts were never rewarded, while Falena can do thing if he wanted and still have everything. The Heir and Spare deal.
As for his unique magic, I think it’s a more simple reason. Again, bringing the Scarabia into this. But it’s the polar opposite of Kalims magic. Kalim says even though summoning water isn’t that impressive in the grand scheme of things, back where hes from it was once a big deal. Before they got running water, spells like Kalims were incredibly important out there in the desert where drinking water was scarce. I’d say the perception of Leonas magic is in that same vein, but on the opposite side. The Savanna is grass lands, full of all sorts of plants and animals. The last thing it needs is to be dried out. So I can easily picture magic like Leonas that does just that would not be viewed in the best light in his country. Just in general.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Yeah, on paper, turning things to sand doesn't sound that bad. But I think were forgetting one key detail:
Tumblr media
Leona can straight up mummify a person alive if he wanted. That is horrifying all on it’s own. Even without cultural/ historical perception.  Just going to put that one out there.

More brothers but much less happy this time. I wanted to partially get my hc for Falena drawn in case he actually shows up in canon and also draw how i picture the princes' dynamic. Maybe the eldest prince is a little entitled and bratty too so he and Leona clash a lot. Fighting with your sibling sorta counts as bonding though i guess

What an... Interesting assortment of characters for this event. Like Vil, Leona and Lilia in the same room? Dialoguing? Wild 😭. Kalim is just vibin tbh.
My first impressio was Farena possibly wanting Leona to come home and bring some "NRC friends" but I he would not invite Lilia or Vil willingly, so it has to be a school trip situation (I can hear the bickering and teasing from here). Also?? Idk if it's just me but Vil's outfit is my least favorite. I'm sorry to say but that shade of yellow is not his color. Everyone else is slaying tho.
My predictions (wishlist) for this event is:
We get to see how the people from Sunset Savanna see Leona and interact with him. At school he's more of a regular guy despite the prince status so hopefully we get to see how he's regarded at home, esp. by his servants.
Ruggie and Rook are in this event as well. We get to see the slums Ruggie came from, but I think that's unlikely.
FARENA. Farena's face reveal, Farena interacting with Leona, Farena interacting with Cheka, Farena embarrassing Leona in front of his classmates.
FARENA INTERACTS WITH MC. Farena tries to hug Grim cause he is cute and nearly crushes his bones 😊
Drama
Literally just Vil and Leona bickering
MC is invited by Leona but that's just me being delusional as well as Leona simp.
[I’ve already given my thoughts on the NRC character selection for the Sunset Savanna event here! My thoughts on meeting Farena and the possibility of Rook and/or Ruggie joining us can be found here!]
Please check those other two posts if you’re interested; I won’t be repeating myself in detail in this response.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
It's a unique group to be sure! I wonder how the event's story will rationalize these particular individuals being picked to head to the Sunset Savanna? (It was interesting seeing how they did it for the other two hometown events for Silk City and Harveston~)
ahbdadbasilbda I DON’T THINK LEONA WOULD BE EAGER TO LISTEN TO HIS BROTHER 🤡 Dude probably just throws up the middle fingers and tells Farena to fuck off and stop treating him like a baby/j Maybe it’s an order from the queen??? Leona has already demonstrated before that he more easily caves to demands made of him by his brother’s wife (like her asking him to visit home on breaks and to send pictures of him in his ceremonial robes). He can’t exactly tell the queen “No, I’d rather NOT bring my asshole classmates home, thanks.” 😅 Or maybe it’s some very important national holiday or diplomatic situation Leona can’t ignore??? For as callous as he comes off sometime, he does genuinely care for his country and wish the best for it and its future.
Nah, I agree with you on Vil’s outfit being the weakest of the bunch. I’m so used to seeing him rock blue toned purple, so that shade of yellow looks absolutely atrocious on him. SORRY NOT SORRY VIL COME FOR ME WITH YOUR 20 CM HEELS I DON’T CARE
This new event will be starting around the 7th of February, which is a lot sooner than I had expected it to drop. I’m positively vibrating with excitement!!!
I’m????? So curious about the Sunset Savanna and its people 😭 especially knowing that the palace servants were so gossipy about Leona as a child???? I wonder if they treat him any differently now that he’s an adult. Maybe they just avoid him if they can, because it sure would be ballsy of them to shit talk him to his face and risk getting evaporated or maybe even told off by his brother (because I don’t think Farena would just let others insult his family like that).
I hope Rook and Ruggie can join, but I think we’ll probably spend more time in the palace and that general area, if only because Ruggie’s hometown isn’t exactly... glamorous to explore, for lack of a better term. Seeing that, contrasted with the pomp of palace life and its ceremonies can be... jarring, to say the least, and I don’t know if TWST wants to go down that route for a feel-good hometown event. I’d love to meet Granny Bucchi and see where Ruggie comes from, but the fact of the matter is that I also worry about how settings of extreme poverty are portrayed 💦It’s not easy to tackle, that’s for sure (especially considering that Ruggie has mentioned things like starving children). (Note: the event synopsis is out now and indeed, it looks like we’ll be mainly situated in the capital (Dawn City) and the palace!)
I REALLY WANT TO SEE FARENA EMBARRASS LEONA IN FRONT OF EVERYONE 🤡 MANIFESTING EMBARRASSING DAD ENERGY FARENA WITH ALL MY MIGHT, CHEKA CAN ALSO JOIN IN IF HE WANTS TO askhdgsbasdoasd I definitely see Farena as a super friendly type that gives crushing hugs to everyone... Don’t hurt Grim though, or I hurt Farena--
... It’s NRC. When is there NOT drama? 😫 Pretty sure just Kalim saying he wants to leave on a trip starts drama with Jamil. Every other moment will be a catfight trying to stay contained audygao8sdabiwpwe19q
Judging from how the other hometown events went, it’s not always the SSR boy that invites Yuu to join them! Kalim was the one that did it for Silk City (despite Jamil’s protests), while Epel did it for Harveston. It’ll probably be the character that is most friendly that extends the offer, or maybe some authority figure like Crowley or Leona’s family members that want Yuu to go along. I don’t think Leona would realistically be happy with Yuu (and Grim) coming, if his grumpiness in episode 5 is anything to go by (when Grim calls out to him in classroom 3-A). Alternatively, Leona could invite Yuu but have a practical reason for their presence rather than being friendly with them.

Ended up debating with a few of my friends over which fairy tale related things are the best and so far, we’ve agreed that
Twisted Wonderland - The Lunar Chronicles - The Land of Stories - the ever after high books
All are (in some cases were) really good, and it’s so funny that no one mentioned descendants lmaoo can’t believe we all collectively forgot that clusterfuck (affectionate) 😭
I do remember when the first movie came out tho I liked it (Carlos was always my favorite) but by the second and third movie it was just meh imo. Only good thing to come out of those were the villain songs, and also like. The concept of the isle of the lost??
Like idk. The idea that there’s an island where they put all the villains, even the DEAD villains, and just left them there?? It’s so dark? And to even think of the fact that ppl can’t DIE in the isle of the lost so like. All those fics that incorporated that into it, with like scene where they have to “mercy kill” one of their own and wait for the magic to bring them back, not knowing of whether or not the magic will work this time. That if this time it’s permanent.
Basically I love the idea and the concept and all, I just feel that since it was a kid friendly Disney movie they did not execute it the way I would have personally liked to see, and that’s not a complaint bc i get it! It’s a kid movie! A Disney channel original! So while it’s not my favorite personally, I’m not gonna rag on anyone who adores it
And like. This is so funny bc I am a BIG twst fan and now I want an au. Idk why but I need it. There’s probably more planning and such in it but the gist is I want Vil Schoenheit son of the fairest queen to come to Auradon only for Rook Hunt, the son of the huntsman to fall fast and fall HARD.
Would Cheka and Farena be brothers and Leona’s cousins? Or would FARENA be Leona’s cousin, and Cheka farena’s son?
Malleus is the thorn fairy’s son but Lillia is what? Like I need him to be involved, but also he’s gonna be on auradon to raise silver so like. What’s the deal there?
Would the vipers be in auradon, or would they be on the isle? Bc like, I’m not doing direct descendants all around, maybe the vipers are just of the same family? Will the whole family be punished bc of jafar? On the isle? Or is the punishment to serve the Al Asims.

Okay, now is technically the last one before my prefect design lol. OOPS I FORGOR fuck well here they finally are lol...
😭Other Side Characters😭
Tumblr media
I drew so many cutie patooties in this batch omg they're adorable. But first we'll kick off with the Royal Blade characters!
🐱Chenya🐱
Because I'm not spelling out his whole damn name 💀
(he/she/they/it/ whatever pronouns you can think of lol) Genderqueer - Pansexual
Tumblr media
Teehee I forgot to colour in the damn hair clips... I'm gonna kms /j
- Genderqueer cat. Any character based on the Cheshire Cat is genderqueer to me istg. Chenya is no exception.
- I kept most of her design the same but added in some heterochromia for funsies and used those colours for the hair clips and earrings. Xe is also Hispanic, idk it just felt right.
- Totally has ADHD. The impulsive thoughts are obvious with this one and I think that Neige serves as its impulse control. They made like, a pact of sorts (after their Headmage yelled at Chenya for doing something) that Chenya tells Neige whatever the impulsive thought is and Neige either tell Chenya 'No, you can't do that' or 'We can do this instead'.
- Broke asf. I dunno but I feel like Chenya has like the worst habit of impulse buying you've ever seen so they never carry money on they to try and avoid it at Trey and Riddle's recommendation. It's mostly worked as Neige buys anything Chenya needs when they go out anyways.
Speaking so much of Neige,
🐦Neige LeBlanche🐦
(he/him) Transmasc - Biromantic Asexual
Tumblr media
God I love how Neige came out, look at him!!! He's such a cutie patootie omgomg I love him sm
- Anyways, I was fighting my demons to not make him black and I lost. I dunno, we don't have enough sweet, cute black boys in media and that is a crime.
- I gave him some hairclips with cute lil charms on them and some of those silly little acne patches. Idk if he actually has acne, he totally could, but I think he'd wear them either way to like normalise not be ashamed of it, y'know?
- I gave him some cute little apple earrings which were a gift that Rook gave him after a concert with one of his letters lol. He wears most of the jewelry gifted to him at one point or another but he really likes the apple earrings.
- Has a crush on Vil. Idk how popular of a headcanon that is but as soon as they interacted, I felt like it made sense. I love the one-sided rivalry lmao with Vil hating his ass and he's just like, 'Omg, she's so pretty and cool and smart. Wow, I'm so glad we get to work together so much!' It's really funny ngl.k
- Loves to crochet, knit, and sew. All are kinda skills he picked up while caring for the dwarves but they're his favourite to do. He's made Chenya a few sets of mittens (because for some super mysterious reason, they always go missing) and a quilt at some point.
- Likes anything with apples in it, pies, drinks, you name it. Fall is his favourite season because of apple cider alone (otherwise it'd be spring).
Onto the Kingscholars!
🦁Cheka Kingscholar🦁
(he/him)
Tumblr media
He's so cute!!! I love him omg I'd actually love to babysit him look at those eyes
- I kept his design also pretty on model, darken his skin a smidge and textured his hair to match Leona's. Smacked some dimples and birthmarks on as if he wasn't cute enough already.
- The gold eyeliner is like a royal thing, maybe be specific to the crown line or maybe Leona's just too fcking lazy, probably the later.
- He's actually really good at chess. He's played many games with Leona, even though he didn't get it at first, but now he can beat most people who play him (still not Leona lest he really screws up something). Most of his birthdays, he gets a new pretty chess set and he has a little display of them in his room.
Now for his dad! The only character here without a canon design (as far as I know... which I'm upset about).
👑Farena Kingscholar👑
(he/him) - Heterosexual
Tumblr media
I woulda also made a design for his wife but I don' think she even has a name?? So maybe in the future.
- I based him more on Leona, trying to make sure that Cheka didn't just get his trait lmao. I think that he got his piercing actually after Leona got his because the palace staff were criticising him for it so Farena went and got one.
- I dunno, he's giving bi wife energy. It helps that the women of Sunset Savannah are buff and cool and I'm so mad we never saw them 😭😭😭 I wanna see Leona's sister-in-law so bad ;^;.
- He's not as much into the intellectual side of things like Leona is, would rather defeat people with strength which is why the two really don't get along super well. Though I think it's only perceived on Leona's side, I don't think Farena realises how much hurt Leona's had throughout his life.
- Angst aside, he doesn't get much in the way of free time what with all his royal duties and such. His favourite activities are spoiling his family and getting used as a weight for his wife's daily exercise!
We got even more other family characters incoming...
🐍Najima Viper🐍
(she/her) - Bicurious
Tumblr media
Fair warning, I haven't encountered any of the last three characters lol.
- I didn't change much here either, just added some red streaks to her hair and matched her palette to Jamil's.
- I don't know if her age is ever implied but I think she'd be younger than him by like a year. She went to a different school with Kalim's cousin (who they're like besties).
- I feel like Najima didn't get the same set of exceptions set on her growing up and so her relationship with the Al-Asims, while still not necessarily healthy, was nowhere near as damaging. I think that while Jamil definitely envies that, he'd rather die than make her go through the same thing as him.
Up next,
🧢Mama Spade🧢
(she/her) - Bisexual
Tumblr media
Never met her either 😭😭😭
- I based her off my Deuce design and really just added some more piercings. I actually toned down the blonde streaks but I think they'd both have just a few.
- I believe she has a small business??? Or something? I didn't read the wiki but her hat had a delivery service me thinks but I stan her having a small business.
- She loves her son very much and was super excited when she saw his new piercings. Also, super accepting when he came out, obvi and thinks that while Ace is a bit of a rascal, they do click together.
I don't have a ton for her but I want that event to come back pleaseeee 🙏🙏🙏
🐉Meleanor Draconia🐉
(she/they) Agender - Aromantic Pansexual
Tumblr media
- I had so much fun with her horns. I made them more branchy and I think a full grown dragon (well, like an old one) would basically have a web of antlers. I added some purple to the tips for the 🌸aesthetic🌸.
- Also added some wave to her hair. Malleus looked in her spitting image so I figured I'd give Levan's genes a chance lmao. They're also super tall, probably even taller than Mal herself and especially with the horns.
- I think she'd have left some things that Malleus ended up growing up with not realising they were from her, like a hair clasp, some assorted jewelry, a couple toys and items that Lilia gave him when he was old enough. Pieces of her for him to grow up with, y'know?
Anyways, I'm so sorry for this posting without anything lmao I was real tired last night! Prefect is next on the chopping block!

"If you want to date me, then you'll have to get through Grim first," the Prefect said, before laughing. Little did they know that Grim was listening to them, and even agreeing wholeheartedly to that statement.
"If they wanna date my henchman, then they have to get my approval first!" And thus started Grim's Henchman Protection Program, to protect them from these...unworthy scum that dared to try courting his henchman!
Tumblr media
Leona Kingscholar
leona's not that big on romance, but he knows that there's something different about this feeling in his chest
after hearing farena's countless serenades about his wife, leona begrudgingly agreed with his depictions of love. just a little bit. he would rather die than admit it though.
it's so stifling and persistent, and he wants to pull them into an embrace every time he sees them and-
oh? speak of the devil, wasn't that the herbivore watering some plants over there?
just his luck. smirking, he decided to play with them a little. his herbivore was always so entertaining after all.
so he got up, looming over the prefect, opening his mouth, when-
"funyah! you aren't getting to them that easily!!!"
there's fur in his mouth and he sputtered. grim was clinging to his face. what the actual fuck.
leona said as much, "what the actual fuck, herbivore get your cat under control."
they stared at him in silence as if amused, "should i take a picture before i do?" leona growled at them in warning.
normally he would've already swatted grim away. but he knew how much the herbivore cared for the...cat-creature. so he's trying to be nice. (emphasis on trying-)
after getting off, grim turned to glare at him, "you think you're so slick! i see you staring at my henchman!! if you wanna date them then you gotta go through me first!"
leona leveled his gaze with the monster, "so i need your permission to date them?"
the prefect watched them, half-amused that leona is entertaining grim's words and half-embarrassed by leona's outright declaration that he wants to date them.
leona, on the other hand, kinda gets it. as much as he hated to admit, grim was the herbivore's only family here, so if grim didn't like him then he already lost.
and he knows of many who want the prefect's affections. no way in hell was he losing to the likes of those weaklings.
now every time the prefect goes anywhere near the botanical gardens, grim's there too. leona's not really an effort guy, but he goes as far as to groom grim or even place him in the middle of him and the herbivore when they nap. grim detests it (or so he says, he quite likes the cuddling but don't tell anyone)
well, that just shows how badly he wants to make them his herbivore.
Tumblr media
Azul Ashengrotto
being someone who's well read, azul's no stranger to romance– in book form that is.
so imagine his surprise when he feels like one of those protagonists– racing heartbeat, stuttering, and absolutely making a fool of himself– in front of the prefect.
cue the tweels making fun of him. the prefect doesn't seem to notice, nor mind to his relief.
and so what does this romance need to succeed ? azul needed to take a step forward and...get them to sign a contract with him. (what did you expect ? azul's azul after all)
so there he is in the vip room, the prefect in front of him. the terms were fair, he doesn't want to run them off after all.
suddenly there's a gray paw covering the contract, "what's in it for me if my henchman signs the contract ?"
azul felt absolutely stupefied. where in seven's name did grim come from. he swore he heard a peal of floyd's laughter in the distance.
azul pushed up his glasses, "well...what would you like ?"
grim stomps a foot onto the table, "i want discounts every time we eat at mostro lounge ! fifty percent !"
"grim, that's-" "but that slimy octopus is trying to date you ! and i ain't letting that happen, nuh uh, he has to go through me first !"
cue azul's glasses slipping from his nose, because what was this monster saying- he glanced up at the prefect, who looks flustered at the statement and oh- oh.
grim just...destroyed azul's four-contract plan to romance the prefect in one fell swoop
azul went red in the ears, "ahem. i suppose i can make some exceptions." grim was the prefect's beloved, er, pet after all.
after making a lot of exceptions (including a 15% discount twice a month, much to grim's disappointment), azul finally signed, thus starting their very much only transactional relationship.
the prefect would give him recipes from their old world, and he would pay them a monthly commission fee. except, every time they discussed recipes, grim would be there too. azul...accepted it by now. he has bribes ready for when grim would undoubtedly start questioning him (every two seconds) and the monster was quieter when eating.
the tweels make fun of him signing a contract where he's clearly at a disadvantage. well, this was simply an investment that he isn't willing to lose out on, after all.
Tumblr media
Vil Schoenheit
"beauty is in the eye of the beholder" is a saying that vil quite dislikes. beauty is beauty, and something that isn't beautiful can't suddenly become beautiful on its own. there needs to be an effort.
however, that changed when vil encountered the prefect.
his first thought was, "how could i like a potato like them ?"
and his second thought was, "if i took care of them, they would shine even more beautifully than they already do."
so he thinks of a way to get them alone, and lands on a spa day. they wouldn't refuse his request, right ?
he was right. so that's how he found himself in the comfort of his own bedroom, his sweet potato sitting next to him.
he was instructing them on how to put on a clay mask. they were making quite a mess.
vil reached over, intending to help them when something bats his hand away. his head snaps up to see that infernal gray cat on his darling potato's lap.
"what is the meaning of this ?" he said, tone sharp.
grim shrank back slightly. "y-you! you're r-really sparkly so i see it when you're s-staring at them! it's kinda scary ya know, so no way you can date them unless i let you!"
vil scoffed, "and what makes you think i won't date them anyway?"
"i-i'll burn up your hair if you do!" grim taunted, clearly hiding in the potato's arms.
purple eyes flit to the prefect's form, who looks absolutely...endearing with a clay mask half on their face and surprise painted on their face.
vil decided that, for the health of his own hair and grim's, he wouldn't be fighting that cursed raccoon.
instead, every time he gave his potato a gift, he would get something for grim too. he gives them shampoo? he gets an expensive pet shampoo to go with it. he gifted them some lotion? he gets an animal-safe version.
and whenever he has those spa days with the prefect, grim is also a guest. vil would brush through the knots on the monster's back until his fur was slick and shiny.
he didn't miss the slight sparkle in grim's eyes when he saw himself in the mirror. that meant his plan was working, right ?
beauty took effort. if vil could spend time with his potato, whilst also making them more beautiful in the meanwhile, then for him, there was nothing better.
Tumblr media
Malleus Draconia
to malleus, his child of man is somewhat of a singularity. someone that is such a unique presence in his life, so much so that it brought tides of unknown feelings.
after consulting with lilia (and being teased to no end by him after), malleus had concluded that what he felt was pure and unadulterated affection towards the prefect.
being quite naive in that department, malleus wasn't quite sure what to do. obviously he's not going to ask lilia, nor sebek and silver, so he tries to figure it out himself.
the first thing he tried is sharing one of his favorite things: ice cream.
it was a bit odd to share ice cream with someone in the middle of the night, but the prefect happily obliged, to malleus' delight.
well, that was before he felt a weight dangling from his horns. his head tilted, and there was a shrill voice, "hey! where's my portion! don't tell me you didn't get any for me!"
the prefect reached up to grab the monster, "it's okay, you can have some of mine grim."
and malleus quite disliked how easily they gave away something he worked hard to get for them and to a monster, no less.
speaking of, said monster was aiming an impressive glare at him.
"what is it, little monster?" malleus put down his spoon. "do you have something you wish to say to me?"
"you're tryna take my henchman away from me, aren't ya?" grim was pouting now, clinging onto his child of man. "you aren't dating them! not unless you have my permission!"
malleus tilted his head. was this another human custom he didn't know about? he glanced at the child of man, who was coughing because of grim's words.
malleus patted their back, "then, i look forward to the day i gain your permission." (that only makes the prefect choke more. poor them.)
from then on, malleus would bring three cups of ice cream on their weekly night escapades together.
he also introduced the monster to another of his treasures, gao gao dragon-kun. the monster didn't get it, but at least he wasn't as scared as he was before.
hmm, maybe this human courting wasn't that hard. now he just had to figure out how to confess to them for real.
