AHHHHH THE SHIP CHART ASDHSKDSDFFSK i thought about a hs au back in like 2020 but i never wrote anything down for it so im like. living vicariously through ur work rn. you dont have to answer this if its too broad a question but i would Love to hear ur thoughts on their sgrub session as well if you've got any. do they have hte dreaming moons. who godtiers (if anyone) ... i am rattling in my chair with thoughts and concepts rn -quadrant anon again
Hehe hiii quadrant anon, sorry this is so late! I had to deal with finals all week. anyways hlvrai hs au game session thoughts under the cut.
So before it starts, to make one thing clear, the game is an experiment Black Mesa is conducting based on an ancient code that was dug up by their underwater facility. Not a lot of the scientists working on setting up this experiment are even fully sure what its capable of, they just know that the code just so happens to make up the code of a “computer game”, and that it contains the secrets to conquering new universes.
What they don’t know, that a select few (namely Gman and whoever his employers are) know, is that it doesnt contain the secrets to conquering new universes. It contains the secrets to CREATE a new universe. At the price of the destruction of the planet you’re on. If you’re familiar with homestuck then thats all standard stuff. You play the game, your planet gets destroyed, you get transported into the world of the game. Then its all a big quest to create a new universe to rule over as gods. Or whatever.
The science team consists of the group of scientists who were going to test out the experiment, the computer game, give it a little test run. But well, once you start playing, you cant go back, so. NeMeico is destroyed and a lot of different parts of the Black Mesa facility are scattered across different planets, where the main players end up. Those who aren’t playing quickly die. Certain non-scientists (Benrey and Forzen) got dragged into playing last second as some of the main players clued in on what was going to happen otherwise and so the game begins.
ANYWAYS thats the basic set up. For the fun stuff, yes they do have dreaming moons! They also have their own lands B] Ill make a nice little list because who doesn’t love lists!
Gordon - Maid of Blood - Prospit - Land of Bonds and Rust
Tommie - Witch of Hope - Prospit - Land of Fountains and Arenas*
Coomer - Seer of Time - Prospit - Land of Ropes and Routine
Bubbie - Thief of Space - Derse - Land of Pyre and Rockets
Benrey - Bard of Void - Derse - Land of Bubbles and Weightlessness
Forzen - Heir of Doom - Prospit - Land of Ruins and Entropy
Darnold - Rogue of Breath - Derse - Land of Beakers and Geysers
*the fountains are soda fountains, yes. also the arenas are beyblade arenas. ok.
The ones who for sure likely godtier are Benrey, Coomer, and Gman (who i did not include on this list on purpose!) Maybe Tommie. I ofc dont have it all planned out, but these are the concepts I like playing around with B]
