#toh betakids

[chippedtoons]

Talking about my Owl House au because its really cool.

this au has more of the darker "beta" concepts from toh, as well as the characters retaining their "beta" designs. hence the name, betakids.

anyways this is pretty long so uh. yeah.

:readmore:

Luz accidentally wanders into the Boiling Isles at the age of four, and has been living on her own for about ten years. she still has the glyphs, and uses a wooden rod in combat to protect herself. unbeknownst to her, its the staff of a lost palisman, which is why its able to be used to perform magic.

Hunter and Vee ran off from the Emperor's Coven a few years back, and are taking residence at the Owl House [roll credits] with Eda. Hunter doesn't really know he's a grimwalker yet, but he still owns Flapjack as his palisman.

Willow, Gus, and Amity are all training under their respective covenheads, and all have sigils. Amity and Willow have more of a friendly rivalry than in the original show. nothing too bad, just the occasional "see you after i totally NAIL this test!" type comment. They're both trying to be "the best" for different reasons. Amity because she doesn't want to disappoint her parents, and Willow because she wants to be someone people can rely on. Gus, on the other hand just wants people to stop looking down on him so much.

Belos's main goal is different in this AU, as instead of destroying magic, he wants to merge both the demon and human realms knowing it'll cause both of the realms to cease existing [sonic x type bullshit.]. the coven sigils are then used instead to power a giant portal beneath the Isles.

and yes, im aware that he'd need a whole fuckton-billion gallons of titan's blood to power something like that. thats why in this au, the titan kinda chooses who gets to use titan's blood. Eda?? as soon as she needed a place to hide, a "mysterious vein" of the stuff appeared in the Owl House's basement. Belos? barely has any. he never even got enough to make the portal door from the original show in this au.

Lilith is Amity's ex-mentor who "went rogue" and left the emperor's coven about fifteen years ago.

Eda is completely aware of King's heritage as a titan, and is keeping that a secret from King to protect him in case something were to happen.

anyways, the basic main plot of the au starts with Hunter and Vee finding Luz trying to take food scraps from the Emperor's Coven. the two of them take her to Eda, who offers to take Luz in immediately. King takes a few minutes to warm up to the new resident, but eventually does. however, he still retains the "IM THE ALPHA OF THIS HOUSE" mentality, and then Luz says something like "then i guess that makes us the Betas!" again, hence the au name.

anyways i hope yall liked this post and i hope i can post more about this au in the future
