The next god will be revealed tomorrow, but today I’d like to make an announcement… (to the 2 ppl that follow this blog lol, love you guys 💕)
Mikel has an official second outfit! 🎉
[Off Duty]
Unlike Ludi, who already wears his casual clothes under his gear, Mikel switches out his tunic for a “fresher” look.
He’s not one to be too mindful of his looks, but as a city boy, he understands the importance of appearing at least presentable when going outside.
However, his simple aesthetic only captivates his partner even more… 🤭

Team Mythic Beasts: Let’s Talk Designs!
(Last Updated: May 2025)
Also Included: Birthdays, Ages, MBTI, Heights
(Note: Special thanks to @levijonescc, creator of the Aveyond 4 x Hetalia mod, for inspiring this project; without you we may not be here today. Btw I suck at drawing humanoid characters so I used this base)
It took me almost seven years to finalize the boys’ designs, but here they are!
Besides the pictures, I’ve also invited them here to explain the thought process behind their outfits. They will go in order of color, so this time we’re starting off with… Jones!
❤️ The Wolf - Jones Fitzgerald (America)
| He/him | Apr 25 ♉️ | 29 y/o | INTJ | 177cm / 5’9” |
It’s only fair that the best-looking guy in the bunch gets the first word… so why does Luke keep getting all the spotlight? I’m supposed to be the main character!
Anyways, hope you aren’t too scared from all the spikes and flame patterns that I wear. Intimidation is a huge factor in designing a villain outfit, and I take great pride in being called scary. The flames are for another reason too— I’m a fire mage, and those who cross me shall beware the heat.
The cape was a reward from a quest I took up long ago. I saved a village from a demonic wolf, and they gave me some of her fur to wear as a trophy. In a way, it’s a reminder not to let my beloved Hiro go down the same path as his mother… but I do look quite big with the cape, don’t you think?
Even without my armor, cape, and giant coat, I still look like I’m onto some villain-y business, with the vest and jewel… Wait, what do you mean “yeehaw,” Makoto?! I’m not a cowboy!
🧡 The Dragon - Abel Brandt (Netherlands)
| He/him | March 21 ♈️ | 70+ y/o (physically 25) | ISTJ | 200cm / 6’6” |
… Hello there. I did not expect such a quick debut.
As you can likely tell from my hardened look, my story is about battling demons. I was promised greater progress by the others in Team Mythic Beasts, and they have been of great help in my quest.
I made my armor from various monsters that I have slain in battle, but the helmet, specifically, is from an a assassin sent by my former captor. It put up a tough fight, that’s for sure, but nothing beats the fury of a brazen dragon. Not even the poor frost snake that would become my scarf.
Underneath my chestplate is a simple outfit I put together in Moriad, where I have lived as a refugee for quite a few decades now. I asked my dwarf neighbors if they could make me custom wear, but it was too much for them. Therefore, every piece is made by hand, by myself.
… Yes. That is all.
💛 The Lion - Mikkel Anderson-Sigmond (Denmark)
| He/him | Dec 5 ♐️ | 19 y/o | ISFJ | 183cm / 6’0” |
Evil beware, the Lion of Team Mythic Beasts is here!
When I was a young lad, I’d be carrying heavy stuff everywhere to build up strength for all this armor that I wear now. That means I have to eat a lot of food every day, too! But underneath all this steel, I’m just a humble little guy from the city outskirts.
Oh, this medal? I got it from Lord Kristan! He’s the legendary founder of my hometown, Alphica, and he’s been watching over me and my nan since I was born.
So… that should cover everything about my outfit. You can probably tell I’m not as flashy as my friends; they’ll have a lot more to talk about than I do, I’m sure!
💚 The Weasel - Arthur George Blackwood (England)
| He/him | Oct 23 ♏️ | 36 y/o | ESTJ | 175cm / 5’8” |
Ha ha ha ha ha!!! If trouble is what you’d expect at the sight of a witch like me, then you’d be right— but you’ve got to be a total numbskull to get on my bad side. My long, sharp nails aren’t the only things you should worry about.
Not a fan of heavy clothes, since potions is my specialty; a simple coat, protective armwear, and a ragged cape does the job for me. As for the bird skull on my shoulder, one of the Raven Lord’s “beloved children” decided it was a good idea to get in the way of my curses— (MAKOTO’S NOTE: THIS DID NOT HAPPEN.)
Purple and cyan? Meh. Black, green, and silver? Classic. No idea what the witchcraft school I went to was thinking when they designed our uniforms, but I’ve done a better job than they ever will. It’s a shame my brothers don’t think the same.
That’s all you need to hear from me. Now get lost before I turn you into a frog!
🩵 The Eagle - Finn Dentrad (Finland)
| He/they | Aug 28 ♍️ | 24 y/o | INTP | 162cm / 5’3” |
Looks like my days as an adventurer are not over yet!
My outfit used to be a lot lighter. Shorts, summer jacket, loafers… they’re comfy, no doubt, but I needed something to reflect the things I’m actually good at— engineering and mechanics. So I decided to switch them out for some heavy duty wear.
Now, I’m fully covered up from the neck down, because building stuff, especially gadgets, isn’t really a safe activity. My coat is long enough for protection, but not too long as to get caught in the middle of moving gears. Yikes! Just thinking about that frightens me.
My eyes are just as important for my talent, so I’ve switched out my hat for a pair of goggles. Combine that with my new coat and waist pockets… don’t I look a lot more reliable now?
Oh, one more thing… I’ve had so many people tell me how heavy my backpack is. Is it really? The only stuff in there are bigger mechanical parts and my robot dog Hanatamago, that’s all…
💙 The Bear - Fra’ser Du’randt (France)
| He/him | Jun 26 ♋️ | 39 y/o | ENFJ | 175cm / 5’8” |
*yawns* … Oh, hey there. Sorry, I was busy… looking into other people’s dreams.
How is that possible? Well, not long after I came to this world, the Lord of Dreams made me his assistant. He gave me the power to access the dreams of other individuals at any given time, whether I’m awake or in the process of dreaming. Dispelling nightmares is my job, as well as my specialty.
My Lord designed and created my entire outfit. Blue and purple are the colors of dreams in this world, so it’s only natural that he would choose such hues. The sleeves of my coat are styled just like his, and my base wear resembles the uniform I had at my last job. I do miss my friends back there, but I’m happy to be able to serve my Lord. He is truly a kind deity.
Of course, fighting night terrors is a dangerous job, so the cape and armbands serve as protection. My downwards moon earring also acts as a talisman. All in all, it warms my heart that my Lord had considered so much when he made me this costume.
💜 The Fox - Lucas Revefjellet (Norway)
| He/they/she | May 6 ♉️ | 200+ y/o (physically 20) | INFP | 178cm / 5’10” |
Oh wow, I’m finally last for once. You probably know me well enough by now, as I’m all over this blog as well as Makoto’s Instagram page, if that’s how you found us here.
Every single item you see on me is a gift. Most are from my sisters, the Six Virtues, but gods have asked of my favor as well. I have no idea what they saw in me, but… alright. Pretty cool, I guess. If you want to know from whom is which, do let me know. By the way, if you look very closely at my choker, it has my initials on it.
Somehow, training with my family had helped me grow a pair of wings, fox ears, and a tail. No, this doesn’t make my hearing any better, nor can I fly... These parts are made of mist, and depending on my mood or energy level, can sometimes appear translucent or not show up at all.
The face markings... I got them while learning how to shapeshift under the God of Colors. He told me that every shapeshifter, whether born with the talent or learned it later in life, has a unique mark, or a combination of them. It’s not evident in my main form, but when I turn into a fox, the canine facial structure reveals the full shape of my marks— four diamonds.
Oh, sorry, I spoke too much… Well, if you want to know more about our outfits, feel free to ask. For now, have this— our very own mascot collection, Team MiniB. It was my idea, by the way.

Hi Tumblr!
It’s my first ever Aveyond Winter Exchange and I’m SOOOO glad to be part of it, especially with this hilarious moment between my faves from AV4 🤣💕
This also happens to be one of very few moments where Robin is the voice of reason (kinda, Boyle’s the one who talks Myst out of those “lumberly crimes” in the end), which makes this perhaps one of the most chaotic scenes in the game. Poor Rowen having to look at pouty little Myst after she gets magic powers for the first time.
These two are the inspo for my precious boys— Hetaveyond’s Luke and Mikel, and they’ve got such an amazing dynamic. Dare I say this is one of the most underrated pairs in the entire Aveyond series! We need more RobinxMyst content >:3
Thank you Anne for this amazing piece! You drew them exactly how I imagined and super adorable, and I’m honored to be the reason for your first AV4 art!
btw I’d feel bad if my first Tumblr post isn’t even about the boys so here’s a follow-up pic:
Fun Fact! My first ever Hetaveyond pic is based on the same exact scene, so it’s quite neat to get to recreate this moment nearly 7 years later!
— Makoto S.
My final piece of art from March 2024 is this piece for the Aveyond Winter Exchange! I thoroughly enjoyed doing the background for this one, even if I had to do it twice.
Do you like my art? Please consider commissioning me or buying me a Ko-Fi!

Seven Years of TMB, Part 2: The Masked Lord and the Aspiring Dreamers
By Mikkel Anderson (feat. Fra'ser Du'randt & Alphix)
(Read series introduction here!)
Fra’ser landed a job as an archivist at the Library of Alphica recently. As a local and fellow disciple of the Lord of Dreams, I naturally offered him help. I even got him to borrow some of my favorite author’s books while we were at it!
However, he still doesn’t have his house in Alphica yet, so I let him stay at my nan’s place for the night. From what I heard, she treated him nicely— with lots of food, of course! Bert (my cat) was happy to have him around, too.
But what makes this day even more special was the dream we both dreamed. Usually, we’d find ourselves in some random corner of the Dream Realm; but both of us woke up in a library.
And it wasn’t just any library, mind you… but the private archives of Lord Kristan.
“Has the waking world been treating you well, lads?”
Come to think of it, that was our first time visiting Lord Kristan in the same session, wasn't it? Huh… maybe he does have control over where we wake up there.
Anyways, we gave him a quick rundown on everything that happened since Team Mythic Beasts parted ways— Finny is back with his family, Master Ludi got an assistant to help with his crafts, and of course… Fra’ser’s new profession. Not sure about Jones or Arthur, though… haven’t heard from them for a while now.
I was gonna bring up Lukey’s newest project, but Fra’ser beat me to it— a three-part book series about our legendary quest! I had the honor to be in charge of illustrations, and I promised Lord Kristan that he’ll get signed copies of all three books before their public release— free of charge.
“The next big thing since The Golden Lady? Well, I sure can’t wait.”
One may say we’ve been doing our best to make his job as our new continental guardian an easy one. Judging from the soft smile he gave us after our recap, I suppose he must feel the same. This is the thanks he deserves for founding the prosperous nation of Alphica, a glimmering gem amongst the nations of Phantasmia.
I can’t really recall what happened after that, but the words Lord Kristan gave me as he sent us back to the waking world have been stuck in my head for quite a while:
“You have nothing left to prove, Mikkel. I am glad to have chosen you as my champion, and it pleases me to know that my people are in safe hands.”

[The Gods of Hetaveyond] 10 Facts About Aluros 🐱
A.K.A. God of Colors, The Origin (of Life), The First Shapeshifter, etc.
(Previous: Photia | Next: TBA)
For Earth Day, we introduce the most down-to-earth god in Hetaveyond— Aluros! (pronounced “AY-loo-rose”)
1. Aluros is the only masculine-presenting member of the Three Primordial Gods.
2. Those who receive Aluros’ blessing develop markings on their bodies, which carry over to their other forms. No two shapeshifters possess the same marks.
3. In his main form, Aluros’ hair, eyes, and animal features change color depending on his mood.
4. Aluros’ iconic necklace contains an extremely rare, color-changing gemstone. Only Lucas Reynard, his champion, is known to possess another piece.
5. Despite their differing ideologies, especially regarding mortals, Aluros is close friends with Diadema and her children, as they have been for thousands of years.
6. Aluros’ emotions are known to affect the skies; when he is really happy, the sky turns into a beautiful shade of purple. 💜
7. Aluros and his four familiars, the Princesses of Color, founded five nations in the continent of Kromatista in the early 1600s. Their reign there was short-lived, however, as the mortals grew to believe their nations can operate without their founders.
8. Many believe that Aluros vanished around 300 years ago, as he had not been worshipped since. However, recent studies have pointed out that certain figures in history never really existed— they were only disguises worn by the God of Colors!
9. Unearthed remains of Aluros’ first tribe, Zucoria, reveals a mural of what modern scholars believe to be the true form of the God of Colors— a giant red cat.
10. Aluros is based on the amazing @tolyys! That’s why he’s such a ball of sunshine 💕

Seven Years of TMB, Part 4: The Iridescent Rover and the Angelic Author
By Lucas Revefjellet (feat. Aluros)
(Read series introduction here!)
Trying to outsmart a god, let alone a life deity, at what is basically hide-and-seek with extra steps… is totally impossible. Still, I thought Aluros deserved a little treat for winning— a book about him, written by yours truly. Well… I was going to give it to him eventually, considering I’ve been working on it for a few years already.
As expected, I found him taking the Princesses out for a walk in the woods outside Alphica, happily singing an old song he transcribed for his scholar friends; Clementine trotting around his feet, Lorelei on his head, Domino floating next to him, and Minerva being carried around in his arms, sleeping.
To be honest, I didn’t expect that he’d be here in his god form and not some other guise like… Bengt the Bard or that blue goblin whose name I can’t quite recall. But again, with practically no one in Phantasmia knowing who he really is (other than me), I guess he has nothing to worry about as long as he’s here.
Still, I’m not letting him tag along with me to Mikel’s place unless he changes into his elf form. I’d rather have my partner call Aluros “Mr. Reynard” rather than try to wrap his head around the idea of an “entirely new” deity.
Whoops, I’m getting off topic here… Anyways, back to my story.
“Oh, Lukey! Nice to see you again. The girls have been wondering when you’d…”
Aluros and his familiars were quick to spot me, but quicker did their attention turn towards the purple rectangular object I held in my arms. It’s the God of Colors’ favorite hue, and every author before me who’s ever written about him made that very clear.
Before I could fully explain as to why I got him this present, a collaborative effort from the two older Princesses swiftly removed the book from my grasp, then into their maker’s.
“All About Aluros: The God of Colors… You wrote this for me?”
And so he gently sat himself down, laid sleepy little Minerva onto his lap, and began to go through the pages, each word and picture, as the other Princesses gathered around him. His grin, which started off small yet soft, grew wider with every detail that amused him.
I wasn’t expecting much of a reaction from Aluros since it’s not really an elaborate gift, but looking back at it now… I probably should have. Unlike the stone-faced goddess that is my mother, he’s always been an emotional deity, and this time too was he moved to tears.
“I’m so honored,” “This is everything,” “Thank you so much…”
He kept repeating those words as he wept all over his new book and melted into a puddle, both his hair and the skies slowly morphing into a sweet, euphoric mix of purple, pink, and all those pleasant hues. The Princesses, Minerva included, meowed in harmony at the clouds, as they did every previous “purple sky.”
Like how the air turns golden to anyone who donates to a Moon Goddess statue, Aluros’ joy has the power to free anyone lucky enough to get to bask in it of their worries and all other negative sentiments. For all that my friends and I have endured these past few years, I admit this “purple sky” was much needed.
“Oh, I almost forgot… We got you a present too! Happy Birthday, Lukey!”
Well, I was so distracted from the joy of making Aluros happy that I forgot about my own birthday. Being the artist he is, obviously he’d have made me a portrait— marked with paw prints from all four Princesses.
Today, that portrait has its very own place in my study, framed in elegant wood and set right next to my table lamp. Whenever I’m a bit tired from writing, I’d put all my work aside and stare at it for minutes, even hours on end…
He’s gotten better at capturing my likeness yet again. 💕

Seven Years of TMB, Part 3: The Illuminated Sovereign and the Gifted Elf
By Finn Dentrad (feat. Photia)
(Read series introduction here!)
It’s been a few months since I returned from my journey with Team Mythic Beasts, but my husband is still processing my new identity as a sword singer. I really don’t blame him, to be honest… how a man once rejected by both his nation and his family would be Granstod’s first sword singer in decades is not something anyone would expect.
Luckily for me, Björn is willing to assist me in this new journey. I learned from him that an abandoned sun shrine lies within the deepest parts of Tradjatt Forest, where past sword singers used to hone their skills. He recalled that a few gold statues stayed intact, but whether they’d still work… would be up to me to find out.
In the woods, I was offered a ride by the Jatte, who had previously been hostile towards my companions; the woodland titans have never been too fond of outsiders, after all. Distracted by how my face was graced by the cool breeze while I sat atop the head of a tree giant, my ride felt shorter than it likely had taken.
I soon landed in an empty field surrounded by statues of gold, all smothered in vegetation and devoid of their original glow. There, a lady stood faced away from me, her bright, elongated locks further illuminated by bits of sunlight that managed to seep through the lush greenery.
“It has been a while since I last heard my songs in this land.”
I just froze there. I didn’t know whether to bow or kneel, or how to properly address her.
A glowing headband of gold, shaped like the rays of the sun… a crown of that kind can only adorn Lady Photia. I’ve never been a huge follower of the Sun Goddess, but the feeling of meeting her in person is something I still can’t put into words. That goes with any other deity too, to be frank.
Knowing how invested I am in the history of my people, she told me all about the rise and fall of sword singing in Granstod. As it turns out, I had ancestors who bore the same magical gift, though their names have long been forsaken. Hard to make a name for yourself in a community that “never looks back.”
So I had to return the favor; I told Lady Photia about my travails with Team Mythic Beasts, how we reopened the vaults my husband had locked up, restored Skidbladnir back to its former glory, and defeated our demonic invaders. She listened attentively to my stories, occasionally laughing out loud with pride and joy.
“Many before you could only dream to be as successful as my champion, Feliciano Lycardia. But not you… for you’ve already proven your worth. Thank you for ensuring the survival of my name and my gift, child.”
Before I could muster up a response, Lady Photia had faded out of sight, for the sun’s presence was once again obscured. The spots of sunlight that shone upon her, and the warmth that followed… all gone, as if this encounter was merely a fleeting dream.
In the harmony of the old statues, freed of their verdurous prisons after their goddess had vanished… I stood alone, pondering this brief, yet mystifying meeting with my guardian deity.

by Jones Fitzgerald (feat. Diadema)
(Read series introduction here!)
Most people already know that I am in… not very good terms with the Prophet. It’s even worse when she tells me, reluctantly, that I’ll become a hero one day. Source? Her silly little “predictions” that she sees in that wicked mirror of hers.
And those do-gooders from Luftstadt call me a heartless psychopath. This woman doesn’t have a heart or conscience at all! The only thing she ever does is look at her precious little mirror and believe everything it shows her. She never takes responsibility, ever. What a sorry excuse of a deity.
Sadly, being one of her biggest haters isn’t going to stop me from having to see her face again.
None of her daughters in sight, I stepped into her temple to find the woman had already set up a table in her usual spot. She didn't even turn her head towards me or give me the usual temple greeting; pretending not to notice me, she kept sipping her tea. It wasn’t until I pulled my chair back and sat myself down... did she finally make her first remark.
"So... you have saved a continent from certain doom and earned the favor of my children. I have feared this would happen."
…
Pfft, haha! Who would’ve thought a goddess would be afraid of a miserable prick like me? Next time Arthur tells me off for bragging, I’m passing on those exact words to him. My amusement didn’t last long, though… As the old woman revealed to me the truth of my family… and why her “precious baby son” decided to look for me in the first place.
A ring she wiped with a tiny piece of cloth, golden and decorated with a foggy white gemstone. She claims to have obtained it from my old man, who’s missed me dearly since my mother whisked me and my older brother away to Phantasmia. Seems to me that she thinks I’m ready to take his place as king… What madness!
“Should you never return to Einlon, your family’s reign will surely end with your father. I dare not think of what will happen if the kingdom falls in the hands of other nobles once again.”
There she went again… Always guilttripping her subjects into heavy, life-ruining decisions. I’m doing good enough in my new home with a giant stone demon upon my roof, I told her— but I doubt she even heard me.
Below were the words she left me as I got up to leave, finding this conversation a waste of time.
“I know your ancestors well, Jones Fitzgerald. Or should I say… Alfred Lycardia II. The choices they faced then… you soon shall, too.”
…
Why did I agree to this meeting again?
Next: Mikel & Fra’ser + Alphix

Seven Years of TMB: Introduction
This year’s TMB anniversary project will be a four-part writing series, one for each god.
But wait, aren’t there only three?
There’s actually a fourth god named Alphix (he's made a few appearances back on IG), who plays quite a big role in TMB. He’s too young a deity to have his own facts post though, so he will be making his debut through this series.
The posts start on April 25, Jones’ birthday and seven years since the original mod was released, and end on May 6, my personal TMB anniversary and Luke’s birthday.
Now you can probably figure out who’s going first and last, but we hope you stay tuned for all four parts!
