I really love your slugterra art! Your art really inspires me! 😊👍🏻

Redemption!Au Dr.Blakk! Lore/Character explanation

INTRODUCTION/DIFFERENCES

Dr.blakk’s character in redemption!au is more complicated in a way from his canon version, but it is very clear the two are different, while canon blakk is…a cold man…and wants power, control over Slugterra….All Redemption!Au blakk wants…is just peace…He has very many differences compared to his canon counterpart, even the people of the caverns have trouble understanding him…they don’t really know his goals…or motives really…all they know is no harm will come to them…and his reputation around Slugterra is…rather decent…and respectable.

But..he is a very tired man…Only criminals fear the man, others fear the man only for his short fuse..but even then…it is only a small fear many of the caverns have…they know that he is…a man with good intentions at heart.

They can’t help but feel anxious about the man. He is quiet for the most part, an intimidating presence, but others could describe him as being peaceful. Dr.blakk knows he confuses people, due to how he is like, on one hand he is calm and quiet, Even peaceful.Then he is vicious and can be brutal when battling, depending. He is short tempered way more easily than his Canon counterpart, and stronger physically.

Dr.blakk knows he’s an unstable individual… , he is a broken man deep down too, he knows it…and he hates it.

In redemption Au! He is far more physically stronger…any criminal is terrified to come across the man, scared for what will befall them if they do, many have lost count at the times he had made many slingers take a break due to almost critically injuring them….only the very arrogant ones that is…no one is brave enough to actually insult the man. Well..no regular citizen that is…he may appear as a tough and cold man..but he’s just soft in the inside…and very..nicer..and sweet in the way….which is why none of the people in Slugterra fear him when they see him out and about.

PAST/LORE

PAST/LORE

Blakk’s early childhood…was…complicated to say the least…he can’t even remember his early memory of his mother…was she caring?..nice…? Cold and uncaring like his father?

He didn’t even remember what she looked like. He wasn’t sure…it feels like his early memories are fading and he hates it…it feels like he had blacked out that past the moment his life was guided to the light, now he struggles to remember, and feels like each memory from his childhood is erased. He despises the feeling.Blakk grew up as an only child…having his father and mother..until his mother left him as a little child…His father having custody of him…blakk could only remember he was young and crying as she left…and blakk could remember him asking his father why his mother left.

He could still remember the cold glance his way. Being told his mother was too weak to carry such a burden of life and abandoned them.Blakk never knew what to feel after that.

His father wasn't…the best either, he does not remember his father ever getting physical with him, but his father had a short fuse too and he could remember the shouts of disappointment whenever he did something wrong, sometimes it hurt Thaddius, but then he felt numb, like it did not matter and nothing else mattered.

His childhood could've been better.

. . .

His childhood could've been better.

Could've been was an understatement for him.

He could remember the day when his father, Dr. Harlan E. Blakk was promoting that stupid product he didn't even remember what it was.

The blast, the fall of his father by the stupid gangster which was viggo dare.

All of it felt fuzzy in Thaddius' head, but back then it felt like everything was going slow and adrenaline was kicking in, but he just…froze and did nothing.

Then his father left him…all for his own life? Thaddius' view on him was changed after that, now his father is a blurry image in his head after all of it. Honestly everything felt a blur, was that even how it happened?

. . .

All he can remember clearly is the days of labor right after such an event. The work of slag rock cavern was tough, Thaddius could remember the scrapes and burns he felt on his hands after moving each rock and the hard like stone scraped against his arms and hands, so many tears shed from pain, and the words of the others stuck in his head from the day he began working.

“Get used to it kid. All you have is meaningless hard labor for the rest of your life..”

He could remember those words clearly as he would work in the dusty and cold environment, coughs and sneezes, crying on the cold stone floor after each day felt sick, he felt sick. He even wanted his father back, his old and tarnished home sounded better than this.. . . he knew someone would save him…right? The Shane's would. He hoped. He had hope.He could remember seeing a shane when he was little, his father unamused while he was amazed, the courage and talent like them saving lives each time.

Now they would be the one’s saving him right? They had to.

After endless cycles of work, finally it felt like he was going to be saved. A shane had entered the Cavern! This was it for little Thaddius! He could remember seeing the shane taking down some criminals, now was his chance, he had to get the attention of the shane he could also remember, Jimmo Shane. After what seemed like eternity, he managed to throw a rock in Shane's direction, and it hit him, looking over, Jimmo Shane saw Thaddius and that was his glimmer of hope, this was it, he would be saved!..But he was not. Even through the plea in his eyes.

Jimmo Shane just looked at him before walking off on his mecha, not caring at all. Not even at the boy’s plea, Thaddius felt like he was frozen.That wasn't right, he was supposed to be saved! He had to be, in desperation, Thaddius chased after the shane, his little hands managing to grasp onto the side of the mecha, and his pleas started, begging, he needed to be saved from this!

“Please! Help me! I'm trapped here! I need help please!” Jimmo looked at him, his face was…filled with disgust before driving off in his Mecha, leaving poor Thaddius by himself as he fell to the ground, shock and hopelessness filling him, feeling like everything he believed in was a lie.

Now he was left to rot here, for who knows how long…

. . .

Teenage years was not easier for Thaddius in the slightest, he had to always watch his back for anything, in case someone was going to go after him, at first he began slug slinging to be the best but then it started to develop into one of protection for himself, after all, every stare thrown at him felt like a dagger and if he didn't move quickly, he knows he will be getting a dagger thrown at him next.

Soon he was recruited for viggo dare, and for a while he felt like he was on top of the world, until…the special treatment began for him. He was not stupid, he could see the way Viggo dare grab at his arm for a long period of time, came so close that he could almost feel his breathing at his neck, but..he was just doing his duties and his boss was proud of him. Right?

He lost count of how many times he had said that to himself and with viggo dare to him.

He could hear those words constantly.

“...You would never let me down, right Thaddius?”

“...You would never fail me right…”

“ ..I’m the only family you’ve ever need..”

It did not help that Viggo dare kept…rubbing his shoulder and getting very close while saying that…at first he'd tried to make him stop, with some type of lie or excuse but it was quickly shut down before he could and he just kept his mouth shut. He felt powerless in this all. But.what could he do?…he kept doing what Viggo dare told him to do…even if it meant blood would be shed from others or himself.

. . .

. . . then the confrontation of Jimmo shane came…he was furious, now..he wasn't going to challenge him..it was stupid to even try…now..in this AU, he did not challenge him out of thinking he could stand his ground and prove his worth…he did not know what he was trying to accomplish anyways…he was just angry and furious, just the sight of the shane brought back memories to when he cried alone in the dusty cavern of slag rock.

Wanting someone to save him, the imprisonment for 6 months didn't help either.

Being chased out of the cavern was not the worst thing in the world, after all, he at least would be as far away from that man, from this cavern as possible.

This was not his home, it never was. His home was nowhere and now he just needed to survive.

. . .

Once growing slightly older, Thaddius' mental state was getting worse, but he was getting stronger each day, fighting men twice his size to practice his skill. Even if it meant killing some…which absolutely made his mental state go down even more from it.

Fighting tooth and nail each day. He'd train so much he'd pass out or until his knees gave out. Eventually, he grew overwhelmed everyday and he needed to stop for a while, he knew his body needed a small break or else he would die and all of this would be for nothing…each day…he felt these nightmares plague him…one of carnage and bloodshed..it felt weird..even to him..when he awake and he panicked and sweating..even..crying.

What was his life at this point…

Thankfully…it was not so shortly after that he began to meet will..even if it was a rocky start at first…will was the best thing to happen for him..sometimes he wonders if he never met will…he probably would…

. . . he doesn't want to think about it…the thought makes him feel anxious.

At first…he was..annoyed beyond belief…who was this boy and why couldn't he leave him alone? He just wanted to be left alone! After all..the boy could have just been pretending anyways…but after multiple attempts and meeting at the slug tournament, Thaddius felt uneasy…he was flattered by such kindness. But even if the boy was genuine…

he felt as if he did not deserve such kindness in the first place. And after all, each time he raised his fist, the boy would flinch as if expecting to receive such a hit. Thaddius decided then that he did not deserve such a kind person in his life…

he could do better anyways…but after getting selected as the only few…he tried practicing, but his hands were so sore, one of them gave out and he began to bleed from his hand…and even then….the boy….who now he learned was will….helped him?..and still smiled at him..it felt like he had been being too…rude..maybe..being friends with the boy…wouldn't be so bad… ? He could only hope…

. . .

he was right…for once..and it felt nice…

CHANGES IN LIFE

With will Shane being there for him, the only family he truly had, it felt less numb and better in life for him…waking up and going out…and seeing will visit him…it felt nice…even visiting will felt nice too. He could smile at that with no issue, at first his home was with will Shane…In the Shane hideout…but thaddius decided he could use his own place, to have more room for his stuff and work he would do. Since he didn’t want to bother will Shane with it.

so he made the citadel, as his new home…but the shane hideout is always considered Thaddius home too..he wont forget that. Ever.

Thaddius builds his citadel in the jungle cavern though, and mostly under a glowing mushroom tree, usually one who would see the citadel and blakk’s industries, it is a nice sight. Since there is slug energy around.

His home is still a black/gray inside, but there's nature all around, vines surrounding the walls beautifully, the environment feels welcoming inside, even in blakk’s office. Dr.blakk now just creates experiments and focuses on science to try and improve slugterra in any way possible, or will try and make slug’s more powerful in less..dangerous or evil ways…he does work on mecha’s too, and mostly works on experiments or focuses on shipments and anything with payment in slugterra.

(His recruits are different people, he does not have the workers as his canon counterpart.)

Overall Blakk is way more calmer when will is present, and is stable when eli is around. He considers them family, and in a way they are the only ones fully able to make him fully calm and in peace, even if he doesn't look like it.

He is just overall a grumpy scientist with a short fuse.

Though after the final fight arc, he does feel better mentally and is trying to recover, is more calmer, and less to lose his temper.

RELATIONSHIPS-

Blakk has no current interests of love, over all he does not think of himself as deserving as one, he's kinda insecure about himself to go and chase love so he focuses on work instead.

He does dream of having kids…that feeling of becoming a father sounds wonderful to him, having a family of his own, but its only dreams he can chase, he does not wish to have children at the moment, he is scared he will keep the cycle of the trauma he has and either become a neglectful parent or be terrible or harsh, but yet, he does not seem to realize how good of a second father figure he is to eli.

He is too harsh on himself sometimes.

ELI SHANE-

He considers him like family, in a way he pictures eli as his nephew in a way, but..after the training he went with eli, even eli admits to seeing Blakk as a father to him too, and Blakk can't help but admit he sees eli as a son too. Over all, he confides in Eli as a son/Nephew to him, and likes to sometimes share stories with him, whether it be of adventures of him and Will's experiences in patrolling slugterra or of old tales of slugterra that he can remember from his early childhood days.

Eli always likes to listen to them, even if Blakk struggles to tell a story, Blakk is a parent to him in a way.

They have a good relationship with each other.

WILL SHANE-

Will and him are very close, some even think of the two as brother’s, best friends? Family…anything of the sort, no one in slugterra could think otherwise of the two.

Will and Eli are mostly allowed to walk in the citadel with no trouble, the guards shrug them off, due to knowing that their practically family is to Blakk, even if Blakk seems annoyed by their simple presence, he isn't actually, that's just how he is. Will is probably the only one (besides eli, and maybe the shane gang) to be able to hug Blakk randomly, sometimes blakk will hug them back but if he is busy, he will pat them on the back or shoulder, head.

Blakk cares deeply about will, and in return, will cares deeply about him, will even brought down eli when he was a baby to let blakk hold him, when will disappeared, his mental state was..not the best, that his workers were concerned and a little scared, but even more so worried, and even a few of the people in slugterra could notice, eli shane could notice, the shane gang could notice.

As much as blakk tries to hide it, he feels more empty when will is gone, and if eli were to be gone, his mental state would go down more, to the point of just snapping. Blakk is already unstable as it is. He doesn't need to lose any more people he cares about. He's a broken man. No matter what.

PRESENT

Overall…blakk’s mental state is recovering just like will’s, especially after Will is found and alive, he still is a bit unstable, but he is doing better. He stayed by Will's side, even if Will was sleeping, he had to stay by Will's side due to fear and anxiety overtaking him. Things are getting slightly better in his life, especially after the final battle…he still has some issues he needs to fix…but…he knows he will be fine..especially with his family.

…he’ll recover….especially with his family…

. . .

SHCIHDJENE OKAY SORRY IF THE POST IS VERY LONG…JUST REDEMPTION!BLAKK CHANGES IN HIS STORY ARE A LOT..SO YEAH…AND MOST OF IT IS KINDA TOLD IN HIS PERSPECTIVE SO ITS A LOT..AND I TRIED TO SIMPLIFY WILL AND BLAKK’S POSTS SINCE THERES A LOT THAT THEY GO THROUGH SO YEAH…ELI IS NEXT ON THIS AU🗣️💖 THEN TWIST THEN A BIT OF THE SHANE GANG I THINK THEN ILL SHOW THE FINAL FIGHT ARC OF THIS AU WHICH WILL BE BASICALLY BE A RECOVERING AFTER A BATTLE SO STAY TUNED I GUESS?😭😭 aight! Peace…

“I’m glad your my friend…” -Shouka Kobayashi, demon slayer OC

OKAY SO I DECIDED TO FINALLY SHOW SOME DEMON SLAYER CONTENT AFTER MY OC WAS COLLECTING DUST IN PHOTOS…introducing shouka! I tried my best to make shouka accurate to the show! After watching demon slayer, I’ve been just dead set focused with Senjuro😭🙏 he’s my son idc, now I decided to make a demon slayer OC, who plays now as senjuro’s small crush/Friend! Also wanted to play around with making a demon slayer character and trying to make her unique! I wouldn’t really call this an AU? Maybe I’m not sure😭 she does take role in the story too, even till the final battle and sunrise countdown arc in this Au ish..- OKAY NOW FOR EXPLANATION TIME ABOUT HER

Shouka is a demon slayer in the demon slayer corps that is younger than most, some deem to take note of this due to how violent and harsh she acts, not to mention how scarred up she is, but demon slaying is no joke so it’s no surprise how injured she looks, but due to her strong build despite being one of the recent demon skaters.

Her age is around senjuro’s but she is slightly older, only being a year older than him or almost 2 years older- not sure yet

The info I will give will be small, once I make a post dedicated to Shouka”s character and her relationship with senjuro, and how it works, I will give more information! Since I would like to make more drawings for her for her explanation of her backstory and character, the flower’s in her hair have meaning, and flowers are used to symbolize her story, which her arcs are named after, showing the comparison and similarities she shares with the flowers.

(Got inspired by a tik tok breathing style ideas😭)

She currently is wielding stone breathing, after practicing after a while, she manages to make her own breathing style, diamond breathing, which is why her sword has a grey-blue tint to it, she is very fierce for her moves. And for a demon slayer, she is very agitated, and always on a short fuse, many are sometimes confused on how she could even befriend senjuro Rengoku, who seemed to be the opposite of her. But it would surprise anyone if they knew she was nice with him, almost as if someone was different. Senjuro is unsure himself of how he even managed to make friends with someone this scary and tough, but with the way she’s kind with him, it quickly flies over his head, and he always waits for her visits, eager to show her his cooking, and maybe even teach her something.

(Shouka meets senjuro before the Mugen train arc with Kyojurou, so she slightly knows of the flame Hashira.)

Well I can’t wait to show more posts of her soon! With her character being explored more and with the main trio as well!

(Sorry if anything doesn’t look accurate or correct! Tried my best! Since this is just a reference for her)

Eli doesn't really like it when Blakk gives big smiles-

YEAHHH- so I keep disappearing then dropping a random post every week or so- longer than that- but school has been really making me less motivated so apologies for that😭 I’ll try to post more consistently- until I finish the posts on this Au ig-

Soo take one of dr.Blakk’s attempt to smile normally-

With Will being semi-Proud and Eli being a bit weirded out when Blakk tries to smile with his teeth.

Some small fact in my au about Dr.Blakk’s smiles💀 he doesn’t really smile with his teeth out, he usually just gives small smiles, which Eli is always happy when he does, but dr.Blakk isn't known for smiling with a toothy grin, he actually dislikes it😭 so when he does it, it’s kinda strange- he needs to be in a very good mood to try- And young Thaddius never really smiled like that either, so when he did- (a little bit) Will was always proud of him- 😭 also Eli tries not to give it away that he doesn’t like his toothy grins-

Next post will be twist’s sort of re-design! And his family!

“Finally found him…”

AHH okay! More lore time! And Here’s the lore part where Will is actually found!:D though he is in a kinda rough shape, also I’m not good at drawing beards so uh…imagine he has one on😄-

Explaining time!:

So will is found Not too long after Ghoul from beyond, And it was in different circumstances, since he wasn’t controlled by the goon, He did manage to escape the Dark caverns a bit early, but was Captured by a different villain- (who I will introduce soon👀-) but yeah, and he Was able to escape once again, But he was slightly more injured, and un well, that he couldn’t roam far, so he Just laid down to catch his breath, Thankfully and by pure miracle, the Shang gang were nearby, and the slugs that saw Will were worried, so being the smart creatures they were, They Lead a confused shane gang over, where Eli is in shock, and almost didn’t recognize his dad and Once Will awakens, he is in shock too before they share a tearful embrace, and of course the Shang gang have a fan boy moment over Will shane.

Yeah and dr.Blakk had a tearful reunion with Will as well!🥲 With him just yelling out how much he was worried and thought they were never going to find him, and all, wills too tired to respond but he hugs dr.Blakk as well.

Will is able to recover more with the help of doc (the healer slug) and mostly returns to his old self! Will Shane takes care of everyone but himself though- 😭 and dr.Blakk is not having it-

Fun fact (My au) :Will’s arm is critically broken, and Doc can’t really heal it Well as it’s a bit more damaged, So Will can’t really slug sling anymore until his arm recovers fully, Will is mostly a retired shane in a way, but he helps his son with missions in anyway he can, Will has a bad habit of Forgetting not to move his arm too much, as He sometimes tries to show Eli more tips or tricks with slug slinging, but he tends to accidentally injure his arm more😭- And Eli is worried for his dad. Blakk’s worried about him too😭-

Stayed together AU! Laxo and Kenta..

This is an Au I’ve been thinking regarding RUNES, of laxo and kenta, a small what if moment 👀 I really was thinking of wanting to make a small Au of RUNES from the creator of @gloomforrestrunes

So it’s simple, when laxo and kenta try to leave Logwood the second time, but unfortunately it is destroyed due to..raven, and Thistle, ruining Laxo’s escape plan, it all goes like cannon…Except when laxo gets his eye ripped out, scared and in a panic state to help her brother in this Au, she manages to get out of raven’s hold after biting her.

just in a fight or flight more, and in this instance kenta chose fight mode by pure panic, not in a rush to fight, more so to go help laxo, she tried but in result, raven tried grabbing a hold of her but ended up biting her too hard in the back area of the upper back, but in massive pain and feeling light headed, Kenta thought to play dead, and this of course made thistle and raven’s attention focus on kenta instead, with laxo panicking thinking raven had killed kenta, and all that could be heard in laxo’s ears is thistle and raven yelling at each other, laxo couldn’t quite hear the words due to he adrenaline and pain he was in but he could hear a sentence of raven’s.

“I can promise them another Trainee …it will just take time…she barely listened to my orders anyways.”

It all went to dark, well not before raven gave laxo one last slash to the face, blaming him for this accident.

Once waking up again, he’d expect Kenta’s body to be gone, but he then noticed kenta, her eyes half open trying to crawl towards him and thankfully raven and thistle were long gone, laxo was surprised but he had not time to be as he immediately went to Kenta, thankful she wasn’t gone before immediately using all the strength he had to carry her by the scruff, his shoulders felt too weak, he knew he wouldn’t be able to carry her to Askon.

It was a long while, laxo thought he’d collapse by now, but he held on strong…hopefully.

“…w…we’ll b..be okay kenta…we’ll be okay…”

. . .

So that’s the What if moment of the Au, of course this is just a fan idea and this is not cannon to the comic in anyway, I tried my best to go about it accurate, while also changing the idea if raven was more so ungrateful with how kenta was due to laxo, they of course are found near the borders, expect it’s only after they lay down for a bit until laxo decides to keep pushing until he collapses, Au!kenta is more so a little happier, she’s still traumatized from what has happened but is doing better, especially since she’s no longer being assigned to be a trainee in the dark realm. Laxo is still the same but he is a bit, in a way happy too because he has Kenta.

Kenta is still kinda skeptical of Kane due to Nex/aiden and laxo’s past relationship but if laxo is happy, she will trust it, but she will keep her eye out if needed too, she mostly likes to wear buttercups too, and if laxo lets her, she’ll put some on him too. Still going to see if I should develop this AU more!

These characters do not belong to me and belong to @gloomforrestrunes !

(I will keep doing Slugterra stuff just thought about dropping this real quick-) and apologies if I got anything wrong here from the lore in runes!
