D&D Obey me- Lucifer, Mammon, + The Twins!
@trash-opposum here you go. seperate post so people can find it but here!
Disclaimer, if i do the rest, im going to avoid making EVERYONE a tiefling or aasimar, those are just for who i think are exceptionally appropriate/is how im playing them as my current dnd character is just Belphegor. If yall want me to make the others (Asmo, Levi, Satan, maybe Diavlo but who knows) let me know!
so let's GOOOOOOOO
Lucifer
Aasimar, the kind from Mordenkainen so no special extra type
Noble background, mainly cause i cant think of anything else
As for class, we have four potential options
Two varieties of Paladin, cleric, or warlock
First paladin variety- Oathbreaker
In this case he was probably originally Devotion before the revolution, and whoops! Oath Broken!
It'd either be a point of pride for him ("I fought for what I believe is right, and there is no shame in that") or he'd hide it from everyone
Second paladin- order of the Crown! obviously because of Diavlo. fellas is it gay to swear undying devotion to your future ki- *gets shot*
Cleric, then Order Domain. clerics are sworn to gods and not demons but shush his patron might still be Diavlo. in an actual D&D setting i can see him instead swearing to like Tyr or something.
he wont be healing. clerics are tanky he's out here ordering people to drop their weapons and then fucking murdering them
Warlock, gotta be fiend patron. im not sure if its possible to be your own patron but itd be funny as shit. worse case its fiend patron with some flavor homebrew as i call it to literally just be a fiend in his own right climbing the infernal ladder as he levels up
i promise the others wont be as long
Mammon
Earth Genasi as those are descended from the Dao, which are the greediest genie. Also, they just look rich with gem-like stuff growing in cracks on their skin you just know Mammon's one of them
Charlatan background. he is scamming people left and right and it works
Rogue, thief subclass. Honestly any subclass other than Arcane Trickster (hes not smart enough) or Scout (hes not equipped for the "outside of civilization" shit)
Unlike for Lucifer, the others have Backstory! Woo!
Mammon is the son of a Dao and a human. His human parent helped him escape from the Elemental Plane of Earth, but then he was left on his own
So. He quickly learned how to con people. At first it was for survival, and then greed.
He found Lucifer while running one of these cons. In particular, his "con" was a vanishing act. He claimed he could become "one with the earth" when really he was curling up on the ground and casting Pass Without Trace. Lucifer saw through this illusion and threatened to out Mammon as a conman, unless he joined him as his ally. So, he did.
Lucifer keeps him in check, but that's not to say Mammon isn't fully on the straight and narrow
Beelzebub
Tiefling!!! variant tiefling favored to have fly wings.
Outlander background, ill explain why in a sec
Barbarian. Need I say More?
actually i will- Totem animal, spirit of the bear. Since bear gets resistance to all damage (other than psychic) while raging and i feel that works with Beel more than anything
now for his backstory! he isnt canon in the campaign im playing belphie in but his backstory has the same catalyst. When he was five years old, the kingdom he lived in was caught in a rebellion against a tyrant. In which, Beel saw his older sister get killed by a royal guard. Belphie was going to be killed- but was protected by a tiefling in a knight's armor (my previous character who was killed. rip avi)
Beel, in his five-year-old mind, just ran. He took off without a second thought- a decision he now regrets deeply.
He ran into the surrounding woodlands. And gets an Atalanta-style backstory. For those who dont know, Atalanta was a princess who was abandoned in the woods and raised by bears
So Beel is raised by bears. Which is way better than being raised by wolves
They teach him how to hunt, gather, and its all well and cute. He sometimes entered the rebuilding kingdom to trade in leftover meat for clothes and weapons- and, to try and find Belphie. No luck.
Eventually, Beel grows to be a powerful warrior. Hangry, sure, but his rage hold the rage of freaking bears. so keep him fed. please.
Anyways Lucifer and the gang (everyone minus belphie) encounter Beel in the woods, watching the cubs. Beel agrees to adventure with them. He says goodbye to bear mom and promises to visit- hopefully, with his twin, next time.
Belphegor
hehe its ME
Zariel Tiefling but i dont give a shit about the infernal legacy its just There. tail is a cow's tail he basically just looks like his demon form
Hermit background. again ill explain in a sec
Druid, circle of stars! to people about to scream "i just checked the wikidot why he no circle of dreams??" because that doesnt have to do with dreams and sleep as i wished it did. its the obligatory faewild subclass. i hate the faewild subclasses (other than the bard one that ones fun)
Currently n the campaign im in we're level 5, so his two wildshapes are wolf, and a bull. But he also has his three starry forms due to being circle of stars.
now. backstory! strap in this is Long
he's saved by my previous dnd character- Avi- and is taken in by him and his husband when the rebellion was over.
Except. due to seeing his sister die and not seeing his twin after that, Belphie assumed the worse and thought that Beel also died and he was the last one of his family
He fell into a pretty deep depression and had no motivation to do anything besides sleep, cry, and eat very tiny portions of meals.
eventually his adoptive dads start telling him stories. and. surprisingly. they seem to help! Belphie is still a shrinking violet but he eats more and can cook and do basic chores!
And Then Avi Goes Missing
His husband- Skull- asks the now 11 year old Belphie if he wants to come along to find him. Belphie declines, saying he needs to get in control of his life and some big quest is probably just gonna leave him with more trauma
Skull lets him stay home, and gives him one of his feathers. So if Belphie ever needs a hand, he can call Skull over and. well. have one of his dads at least
For five years, Belphie took to studying druidcraft, and the stars. He also enchanted his favorite pillow to float and be able to carry him. So he had a little more comfort when going out to buy groceries. He'd make detailed star maps to sell in return
When the sun rose on his 16th birthday, he left a note at home saying he felt ready to tackle his own destiny, and left.
He had a brush with Lucifer, but not Beel. so close, buddy.
Anyways he arrives at The Hunters Guild, finds his parents again, and takes residence in the observatory, where he studies his stars and druid magic again. But also, sleep and dreams.
and. yeah thats where we leave off! god that was long im sorry

⁉️ I must have another, please! Your headcanons are gold!
Aw thanks 💕 I love obsessing over this lil freak.
The trauma sweetie. I think his in particular is glossed over. Which I don’t really blame people. Like 90% of the cast I think Jiraiya fell into a typecast and was poorly written at times, being a fucking degenerate in his behaviour towards others. Does trauma excuse it? Hell nah bro needs a healthier outlet. He deserves to get smacked for his deplorable comments and actions. But I think Kishi got lazy and we only got like a taste as to why before he was like ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ here’s another tragic story about this misunderstood villain that’s gonna die next issue. I’m fairly certain him and Araki share drinks and cackle over what they do to their ensemble casts.
So here’s the headcanon: Jiraiya is bitter and depressed. He seeks out women to bury his feelings for Tsunade in hopes they’ll heal the hole she made in him. He acts out with some nasty comments and actions as a way to really keep people at an arms length. After losing so many people he loves in the past he’s come to fear making meaningful relationships. In some ways he is difficult to get close to. He shields himself with flirting and some out of pocket comments. If people manage to stick around his manipulative ass does change tactics. He’ll lie, be degrading, and goes a little hot and cold on people to jerk em around. While toxic I think the roots of it is buried deep in a desire to protect people. He is the common denominator for all this misery as he sees it. A handful of students that all died young, his best friend leaving no matter what he did to try and stop it, and the woman he loves never returning his feelings. Alas he hasn’t died yet to stop it. So.. might as well spend his days as a hermit and try not to harm others by being alone while looking for threats to his kinfolk. But no task ever seems enough to repent for it all. Honestly he probably does lay awake some nights wondering if it all is his fault. Perhaps if he did this or that type of mental gymnastics.
Only a truly depressed motherfucker convinces his best friend of whom is also his unrequited love he should go on this for certain death mission by himself. Even then, he doesn’t believe it’ll repent all the years he somehow remained alive.
Naruto made a good point. Anyone could have gone with him to assist him. He wouldn’t let anyone do something so dangerous alone. But for him it was the perfect opportunity. I think the fact Tsunade agreed was one of the final nails. Yes it is beautifully tragic and a lovely yet gruesome way to kill off a character. But in a way but I mean it with no shade no hate to Tsunade, he saw it as a sign she’ll never love him back and therefore he had nothing to really fight for anymore other than to face all the rest of his mistakes and misery in an amalgamation of his final fight. In a way he was facing all the rest of his guilt and trauma and he failed. But he failed gloriously and still found a small semblance of closure. And the horrific thing is the subtext implies she had feelings for him too. Had either of them said it, I don’t think he would have died.
Idk. I think people look over him as shallow and scoff at us peeps who try to look deeper and write him better. Of course he can be very shallow. Sometimes he’s a total cunt lets be real. But if every other character in this fucking series can have long posts defending their character and their actions then so can Jiraiya.
This went a little deeper than a headcanon but I hit a roll and I couldn’t stop 😔😔 I got a lot of feelings about him and his mishandled development. Kishi wrote him too much of a horny chauvinist and I think it hit kinda hollow when he died for the plot when thinking on it in a reflective lens. but we can fix him

could you spare some gundam recs for us gays that just got their heart ripped to shreds by the last episode of the witch of mercury and want some more ?
I will but I will warn you before hand that no other gundam show gets this open with Gay as Gwitch.
As usual my first and foremost recomendation is Gundam 00 because it's my literal favorite and in my opinion it's the best gundam show ever. I also reccomend it because it happens outside of the UC in its own timeline and doesn't recquire you to watch any other series to understand it. It came out in like 2007-2008 and it mirrors the world events of that time and handles it in a really good way-it's far from perfect but it's my favorite gundam series and my own official entry point to the gundam franchise and it's really close to my heart. It also has canonically genderqueer characters and some gay if you squint. Full of intense action and drama, and sweet sweet tragedy
Another fun gundam series is Gundam Wing, which was like most of our westerners' first contact with the franchise. It's very rule of cool, full of action and not super complex, mostly just a good time. Think of it like a telenovela with robots, I have enjoyed it consistently since I was like 11. You may be familiar with the scene of Relena handing Heero an invitation that he rips apart, to then wipe her tears and tell her he'sg onna kill her? yeah the whole anime is like that
Gundam Seed is like the black sheep of gundam because it has um. A Lot of problems with writing and the plot in general. Like this anime has Problems with capital P. Forget about yikes this one goes into JINKIES territory sometimes. But if you're like me with 0 standards and willing to turn off your brain completely while watching it's enjoyable. Plenty of drama and action, surprisingly interesting and varied female characters, cool music and fantastic mech designs. Seriously, these robots fuck intensely. And some of the characters do. Take this recomendation with a grain of salt, I am very well known for having terrible taste
I could also recomend the Build Fighters/Build Divers series if you need something to cheer you up after all the angst, they're fun simple series in which kids build their own gunpla and fight in simulations and they're very enjoyable and full of cameos!
I don't wanna recomend UC stuff because the Universal Century is its own timeline and the series in it are linked so you do need to watch it in a particular order to understand it, but a few good ones that don't need that much previous knowledge are the 08th MS Team (BEAUTIFUL animation, hands down the prettiest in the UC imo) or 0080 War In The Pocket (this one WILL make you cry). If you do wanna get more info on the UC don't hestitate to ask me, as you can see if there's one thing I love to talk about is gundam and I will literally never shut up

i need to get this out of my head before i continue clone^2 but danny being the first batkid. Like, standard procedure stuff: his parents and sister die, danny ends up with Vlad Masters. He drags him along to stereotypical galas and stuff; Danny is not having a good time.
He ends up going to one of the Wayne Galas being hosted ever since elusive Bruce Wayne has returned to Gotham. Vlad is crowing about having this opportunity as he's been wanting to sink his claws into the company for a long while now. Danny is too busy grieving to care what he wants.
And like most Galas, once Vlad is done showing him off to the other socialites and the like, he disappears. Off to a dark corner, or to one of the many balconies; doesn't matter. There he runs into said star of the show, Bruce who is still young, has been Batman for at least a year at this point, but still getting used to all these damn people and socializing. He's stepped off to hide for a few minutes before stepping back into the shark tank.
And he runs into a kid with circles under his eyes and a dull gleam in them. Familiar, like looking into a mirror.
Danny tries to excuse himself, he hasn't stopped crying since his parents died and it's been months. He rubs his eyes and stands up, and stumbles over a half-hearted apology to Mister Wayne. Some of Vlad's etiquette lessons kicking in.
Bruce is awkward, but he softens. "That's alright, lad," he says, pulling up some of that Brucie Wayne confidence, "I was just coming out here to get some fresh air."
There's a little pressing; Bruce asks who he's here with, Danny says, voice quiet and grief-stricken, that he's with his godfather Vlad Masters. Bruce asks him if he knows where he is, and Danny tells him he does. Bruce offers to leave, Danny tells him to do whatever he wants.
It ends with Bruce staying, standing off to the side with Danny in silence. Neither of them say a word, and Danny eventually leaves first in that same silence.
Bruce looks into Vlad Masters after everything is over, his interest piqued. He finds news about him taking in Danny Fenton: he looks into Danny Fenton. He finds news articles about his parents' deaths, their occupations, everything he can get his hands on.
At the next gala, he sees Danny again. And he looks the same as ever: quiet like a ghost, just as pale, and full of grief. Bruce sits in silence with him again for nearly ten minutes before he strikes a conversation.
"Do you like to do anything?"
Nothing. Just silence.
Bruce isn't quite sure what to do: comfort is not his forte, and Danny doesn't know him. He's smart enough to know that. So he starts talking about other things; anything he can think of that Brucie Wayne might say, that also wasn't inappropriate for a kid to hear.
Danny says nothing the entire time, and is again the first to leave.
Bruce watches from a distance as he intercts with Vlad Masters; how Vlad Masters interacts with him. He doesn't like what he sees: Vlad Masters keeps a hand on Danny's shoulder like one would hold onto the collar of a dog. He parades him around like a trophy he won.
And there are moments, when someone gets too close or when someone tries to shake Danny's hand, of deep possessiveness that flints over Vlad Masters' eyes. Like a dragon guarding a horde.
He plays the act of doting godfather well: but Bruce knows a liar when he sees one. Like recognizes like.
Danny is dull-eyed and blank faced the entire time; he looks miserable.
So Bruce tries to host more parties; if only so that he can talk to Danny alone. Vlad seems all too happy to attend, toting Danny along like a ribbon, and on the dot every hour, Danny slips away to somewhere to hide. Bruce appears twenty minutes later.
"I was looking into your godfather's company," he says one night, trying to think of more things to say. Some nights all they do is sit in silence. "Some of my shareholders were thinking of partnering up--"
"Don't."
He stops. Danny hardly says a word to him, he doesn't even look at him -- he's sitting on the ground, his head in his knees. Like he's trying to hide from the world. But he's looking, blue eyes piercing up at Bruce.
Bruce tilts his head, practiced puppy-like. "Pardon?"
"Don't." Danny says, strongly. "Don't make any deals with Vlad."
It's the most words Danny's spoken to him, and there's a look in his eyes like a candle finding its spark. Something hard. Bruce presses further, "And why is that?"
The spark flutters, and flushes out. Danny blinks like he's coming out of a trance, and slumps back into himself. "Just don't."
Bruce stares at him, thoughtful, before looking away. "Alright. I won't."
And they fall back into silence.
Danny, when he leaves, turns to look at Bruce, "I mean it." He says; soft like he's telling a secret, "Don't make any deals with him. Don't be alone with him. Don't work with him."
He's scampered away before Bruce can question him further.
(He never planned on working with Vlad Masters and his company; he's done his research. He's seen the misfortune. But nothing ever leads back to him. There's no evidence of anything. But Danny knows something.)
At their next meeting, Danny starts the conversation. It's new, and it's welcomed. He says, cutting through their five minute quiet, that he likes stars. And he doesn't like that he can't see them in Gotham.
Bruce hums in interest, and Danny continues talking. It's as if floodgates had been opened, and as Bruce takes a sip of his wine, it tastes like victory.
("Tucker told me once--")
("Tucker?")
("Oh-- uh, one of my best friends. He's a tech geek. We haven't talked in a while.")
(Danny shut down in his grief -- his friends are worried, but can't reach him. When he goes back to the manor with Vlad, he fishes out his phone and sends them a message.)
(They are ecstatic to hear from him.)
It all culminates until one day, when Danny is leaving to go back inside, that Bruce speaks up. "You know," He says, leaning against the railing. "The manor has many rooms; plenty of space for a guest."
The implication there, hidden between the lines. And Danny is smart, he looks at Bruce with a sharp glean in his eyes, and he nods. "Good to know."
The next time they see each other, Danny has something in his hands. "Can you hold onto something for me?" He asks.
When Bruce agrees, Danny places a pearl into his palm. or, at least, it's something that looks like a pearl. Because it's cold to the touch; sinking into Bruce's white silk gloves with ease and shimmering like an opal. It moves a little as it settles into his hand, and the moves like its full of liquid.
Bruce has never seen anything like it before, but he does know this; it's not human. "What is it?" He asks, and Danny looks uncomfortable.
"I can't tell you that." He says, shifting on his foot like he's scared of someone seeing it. "But please be careful with it. Treat it like it's extremely fragile."
When Bruce gets home, he puts it in an empty ring box and hides the box in the cave. He tries researching into what it is. he can't find anything concrete.
Everything comes to a head one day when Danny appears at the manor's doorstep one evening, soaking wet in the rain, and bleeding from the side.
