Irxis lives au where she becomes kell of House Wolves. much as i love Skolas, i always felt the other two big kell candidates were never properly explored and to the point where Irxis doesn't even get an epithet. in fact, the fact that she doesn't get an epithet is exactly why i've latched onto her. love me some open ends to work with!

i wanted to keep her design relatively similar to Skolas's, that chunky, tarantula, beasty, wolfy vibe, but! slightly more muted. on a scale of ostentatiousness, i feel like Parixas would be on the ridiculous end, Skolas in the middle and then Irxis is as close as Wolves royalty might get to understated. she doesn't have Skolas's trophy hunting tendencies so she doesn't have those big fuck-off horns he carries around. her ether lines have a pair of glowing ring vs Skolas's glowing bright orange lines.

she's a pretty wise old Wolves noble, the oldest out of the three with Skolas being the youngest. Virixas's pack but pack in an old divorcees kind of way where they'd be out of each other's lives by now if only politics didn't chain them together. Irxis has been running a long game planning a coup but it all turned out to be unnecessary when the asshole just gets himself a faceful of awoken wmd.

in this au, Skolas runs off to fulfill the Wolves's oath to join the effort to retake the Great Machine and Irxis takes the time to kill Parixas before he becomes a problem. Skolas returns with a tattered fleet to find Irxis has taken the throne and weakened as he is, he's forced to bend the knee.

Variks gets to have an extremely fulfilling career as the kell's cherished advisor. this au turns out very well for our Judgement scribe.

Mara unfortunately gets a terrifyingly competent enemy and one who probably returns Orbiks Prime to power now that she finally doesn't have to keep hiding her cards from Virixas. this au does not go well for the Reef.

little Vortex redesign because i miss him dearly. i think a lite combat copter would fit his personality pretty well and a more slenderman-like frame and raptor-like claws to fit his creepy interrogator deal. real vulture vibes.

a bit of speculation on the risen completely ignoring canon lol. mishmash of my own headcanons and some discussions in chat.

i feel like risen being Traveler SPAWN is something that isn't really explored in the story. the risen that haven't been socialized to humans probably are right out here in weirdness levels as an ahamkara and i think that the possibility of fae-like peoples could be so incredibly interesting.

like age-wise they were probably born old and never aged - or they age out of feeling like they should look older (Shin Malphur looking at all the kids around him and subconsciously going 'ah yes, aging'). risen appearance as something malleable and continually changing or something completely static to the point where you could compare a photo from 50 years ago to the present and see no changes.

risen but they're appropriately eldritch. imagine.

also speculating on why Zavala looked so young in his trailer vs in the game because it's incredibly funny.

risen getting wrinkles and eyebags in seconds flat depending on how exhausted they are. like mood rings but applied to a whole-ass human-adjacent being.

and then expanding further on the idea so we apply it not just to aging but to everything else. risen with no concept of gender, risen with concepts of gender but who change fluidly between genders. risen who transition and stay and risen who change every day.

maybe they even instantly change hair length so that every time they transmat the helmet on, the bigger hairstyles just fit! it'd explain some things.

and not just the outside but also internals as well!

i like to think that when ghosts first rez a risen, the fidelity of their organs remains and it doesn't really change until a risen starts actually thinking about their insides. baby risen die and you get the expected blood and guts and whatnot, typical stuff.

then they get older.

like this guy for example starting off with generally normal human-ish insides(1). then (2) becoming all piss so that they don't have to go to crucible today. after a few years(3), their insides are all weird glittery space themed and that's just the way it's been since.

some risen not caring about their insides but their ghosts do and then you get 1000+ comment space reddit discussions about how to create realistic kidneys.

risen! they're paracausal entities!

(somewhere out there is an old enough risen that has stopped looking entirely human just because they wanted to. possibly they have become their fursona.)

part two of two. expansion related to a prior speculative design for what it would look like if the Hollow Knight had accepted their void nature and spurned the pale in favor of welcoming the abyss

part one of two. speculation piece on how the Radiance found the fractures in her warden's mind and how it would have played out if she'd made an itty bitty misstep

concept art of Charlemagne for a warmind fixit i will hopefully have enough spoons to sketch out some day. if canon doesn’t want to do cool things with its lore then i’m stealing the ideas and nesting on it like a cranky hen.
