Kirby Fc - Blog Posts
also this i wanted to share separately, a refsheet i made for Wakana because artfight will arrive way sooner than you think (yeah it's only two months but time FLIES yknow) and i wanna start these early! really happy with how this came out
more info can be found on her artfight page! https://artfight.net/character/1085380.wakana
silly doodle i made with @starflungwaddledee's adorable OC, Starstruck Dee, after learning that individuals that can sense magic signatures get really uncomfortable around Starstruck Dee, and since Nova is a nurse bot who can detect these, she immediately gets really concerned about whatever happened to her LOL
bonus followup: Nova, in her confusion, tells Starstruck Dee that she's taking her to the hospital and then panics harder because "OH NO WHY DID I SAY THAT?! THAT SOUNDED SO MUCH BETTER IN MY HEAD I'M SO SORRY!!" and someone looking on would just be like "who hurt you?" lmfao
asking about ur characters again but i forgot which i asked already bleh bleh bleh
1. Does Itzal have a normal right eye, as in it looks like his left eye?
2. Does Candols tag work similarly or different from Itzal's?
3.How does traph navigate around? Does he have trouble, see in another way or uses something like echo location?
4. Where did cargo come from?
5. Do Huechys and Acrid know eachother?
Itzal's right eye doesn't exist, though I have yet to work out what happened to it. Thinking maybe it got forcibly removed as a trade for something, maybe his scarf? IDK.
Candol's tag definitely has magical properties itself, but I'd imagine his tag would be more focused towards protecting his own magical abilities. Maybe Candol and Itzal have a sort of rivalry that prompted this. Would need to develop that.
Traph definitely has his own way of seeing the world around him. Just on the spot right now, I'm thinking those bands around his face allow him to sense the whole area around him. It'd be really hard to sneak up on him as a result.
Cargo once ran a group of pirates that Cane and Kymera were a part of. However, one day, their ship got wrecked and Cargo was presumed dead, but he came back one day in the port cities of Onion Ocean to the surprise of everyone. By now, Kymera had moved away to do tournament fighting closer to Cookie Country, since Onion Ocean doesn't have many major tournaments. As for what happened to Cane, I'm not quite sure yet.
Huechys and Acrid are brothers! Cytra is a brother as well, but he's not well-liked by the other two and thus does his own things.
the following text is work-in-progress lore stuff i wrote down recently and have copied from where i put it down! i mainly wrote it to tie up some loose ends in my kirby au.
Emotion: A Blessing, Power, and Weapon
Emotion is a fundamental fact of life no matter which way you look at it. It's part of who we are.
On Popstar, other planets, and all of the branching timelines, emotion is so much more: Strong emotion can make or break battles or, in rare cases, influence fate itself.
Not everyone can weaponize their own emotions, much less consciously, and the effectiveness of the power of one's emotions is very inconsistent across individuals. However, a general pattern is that more positive influences on emotions tend to increase the effectiveness of other powers drawn out through such. This isn't always the case, as certain individuals may draw power based on only intensity or may become stronger under negative influences, but it applies to most, especially to those able to do so on Popstar.
Sometimes this manifests as a copycat mutation, as it did with Wakana, whose love for Nova grew so intense that it awoke a new power within her: Nova's Light. Other times it will influence how variants of someone will behave, as all variants of Wakana and Nova love each other in some way. (It's also a major factor on how Parallel Wakana survived her purification process. She should absolutely be dead.)
There's a couple of rules to make this work.
1. You have to completely and genuinely feel the emotions you get powered up by. I'm not sure how to explain it with words, but an example would be like... if Wakana said "i love you" to someone out of fear, that would not trigger her copycat mutation, even if she does feel the love to some extent. It has to be pure, fiery, unbridled emotion that makes all this happen. (There ARE exceptions, like if you're feeling angry at some jerk because they hurt someone you love.) Oftentimes this means more stoic or less expressive individuals can't make use of this quirk. This also means you can't force it to happen at all.
2. Robots with an Energy Core powering them cannot make use of this - only robots that utilize a Soul, even if it's artificial like Nova's. It's unclear why the more cost-effective robots can't do it, but (in-universe) many who are aware of this entire thing have likened it to how bad jobs that prioritize money no matter what will make you resent what you work with, even if you liked it before.
HEY SO ABOUT THAT ✨LORE✨ I PROMISED
...theres not a lot rn but i do want to talk abt an older oc im starting to develop a bit.
this is Mirran! hes a Dark Matter who lives in the Mirror World, and hes the leader of the "Valkyrie Project", which is basically the task force dedicated to saving the ruined planet of Mirror Popstar.
hes capable of utilizing mirrors for mischief and spying on others, as he can enter any mirror as an independent reflection of you. hes also able to control your movements if you look at him in yhe mirror, but he doesn't use this a lot due to its potential. of course, he possesses the Mirror ability's capability of illusory duplicates, projectile reflecting, etc.
many rumors of varying descriptions and accuracy surround him, but one thing is for certain: hes got his eye on everyone.
(also yes this art is OLD.)
(Mariah carry its time sfx here)
Does Arcline's beetle like headgear also work as a lightning rod or it can only shoot out electricity ?
How long are the bones spikes able to be on Tick? Are they able to be broken off too?
I'd imagine it'd function quite well as a lightning rod, especially when Arcline is running low on electricity.
The bone-spikes on Tick can theoretically grow indefinitely, but past a certain point they're too cumbersome for him to have on him. He regularly breaks them off for combat usage, partly because he doesn't want them to be so heavy on him.
TIME FOR YOUR WEEKLY RANDOM QUESTIONS ABIUT YOUR FCS THAT I TOTALLY DIDNT ALMOST MISSED TWO WEEKS WORTH SO IM ASKING 4
1- Whats the estimated amount of monitors Worm has?
2- What type of plants does Rosine have in her garden?
3- which weapon does Lance have the most knowledge on?
4- what would happen if Itzal's scarf were to be ripped?
I'd say the hoarder has at least 50 different monitors, probably with an upper limit of 100 for now. Worm loves his tech and tends to use the flatter monitors he has in a specific room not only to keep track of multiple hacking targets at once, but also to intimidate if anyone confronts him in there.
Rosine mostly has smaller flowering plants. I still have to work out the flora of my AU but the biggest plant she owns is a rare tree: the Pink Star Blossom! She also has an affinity for insects and is extremely careful not to hurt them, especially when they're drawing nectar from her flowers.
Lance knows a lot of things about a lot of weapons. However, since there's so many variants of each weapon out there (for example, a variant of a hammer is the rocket hammer, which individuals like Kymera use) it's hard to place a definitive answer on what weapon he knows the most about, but I can tell you which he's the most skilled with: his own spikes! (As for actual weapons you hold with your hands, he prefers swords the most since they're the most similar to his own powers.)
Itzal's scarf is magically enchanted to be resistant to attempts to rip it apart. If you somehow do manage to tear it, though, a powerful explosion of dark energy will erupt from the tear. It will regenerate fairly quickly (again due to magical enchantments), but the explosion deals massive damage to both Itzal and whoever tore the scarf if they're in range.
Side note but THANK YOU FOR ASKING ME ALL THESE QUESTIONS KLFDJSHGFDSLKJ
If Blot could drive, what would he drive? Also what would is Rave's favorite music genre?
Blot would drive the GUN Truck from Sonic Generations. The one with the sawblades. He's a menace to society.
RAVE's favorite music genre? Probably DNB or Dubstep.
new oc! this is Chaka, a new face on the tournament fighting scene. her weapon is a chakram-top hybrid that never falls over even when it stops spinning!
Questions about Sinstra and Destra
My question on Sinstra are on whether or not the copies look exactly like him or do they have subtle changes? Is Destra able to do something among the sorts too :]?
for Sinistra: the clones look exactly like him! the only difference is that theyre vastly less defensive than the real one.
for Destra: i'd say he is able to do the same thing, though his clones would have a more space-like aesthetic to them.
ive been having tons of fun developing Parallel Popstar's Void Corruption lately so heres a lil something i made recently for that: the Void Golem! it's a parasitic Void Beast called a Void Hijacker, and they are about the size of a regular Puffball. one of them took control of a huge statue of the previous queen, Axis.
related side note but the "Parallel" bosses from Kirby Star Allies also exist in my au:
Parallel Woods is the Void Arbor, a titanic tree that is capable of controlling the bizarre plant life of the Void.
Parallel Kracko is the Void Storm, a gargantuan and unpredictable weather system that causes havoc for those who linger uninvited in the Void for too long.
Parallel Meta Knight is the Void Blade, a small but incredibly powerful and ruthless swordfighter that can conjure up terrifyingly dangerous blizzards.
Parallel Dedede is the Void King, but despite that title it offers more of a support role, powering up Void Beasts around itself and occasionally crushing those near it with its huge hammer.
all of these ultimately serve Parallel Null, an entity so thoroughly corrupted by the Void that nothing of its old self remains. despite its extremely violent and animalistic disposition, its "Four Horsemen" (as called by the deities) protect it fiercely.
one more thing while im kind of on the topic: succumbing to the Void Corruption is an extremely slow and painful process. as for what exactly happens, i dont have any idea yet, but i do know that those suffering from it eventually become hyper-aggressive towards everyone. the worst part is that in its early stages it is VERY ADDICTIVE, similar to smoking.
OKAY I GOT AN IDEA TO RAMBLE ABOUT
INTERPLANETARY TOURISM IS A BIG THING IN MY AU
think about it! there's so many planets with life on them in whatever galaxy my AU is in, so it's only natural that the truly adventurous kind would want to go see what the universe has to offer! and with advanced tech courtesy of haltmann, it's very easy to get from planet to planet!
tour guides on each planet are even themed after the planets they're on. for example, the tour guide of Towara is a cloud-like being with large "horns" that resemble... well, towers! the one for Caverna is a mossy green Rocky, the one on Hotbeat is a lava bubble being... you get the idea.
i still have to flesh the idea out a little bit, but that's what i got so far! i might try to draw some tour guides later to show here!
TODAY'S THE FUCKING DAY YALL
forgot to post the second one!
gonna do @faithschaffer 's swordtember prompts, but with a twist: NO SWORDS ALLOWED
so here are Varlun's new fancy clawed smoke gauntlets :D
i had to relearn how to draw this oc since i havent drawn him in so long just to make this picture
this is Junker, shithead supreme (literally. please check the th page linked for context lmao)
Kronotok, the Ancient Timeseer. A robot made by the Ancients with time manipulation abilities on par with the current god of time, Tempus, but stolen from the past by a time-travelling thief.

The Void is a bizarre thing. It consumes, it corrupts, and it destroys… And yet, it seems to recognize a leader, one it will protect from its constant decay: Parallel Null, the Void Emperor.
new oc! this is Vira, and she's a haltmann worker who upgraded the Computer Virus defense system deep underground. she's waiting for someone to help her test the defenses...
