Individual character pictures down below (along with small explanation for this 2nd redo of the au!)
After some thinking, and wanting to do more with this au but not finding myself liking the designs, I really had to start over with most of them, that goes with the story as well! I hope these new ones do the old ones justice. (I may have just taken a past Clover design of mine and pasted it into the au, but! It fits the medieval/renaissance theme :])
New Cali ref for post series things idk
They/them pronouns only
After Basilisks are safe on the Isles again they like to have their tail as part of their look.
A wish you shall not fear, O' Beloved of mine.`` Ahamkara were many things, kind and loving were not of those. Yet now, he looks down to the joyful face of his mate, and feels his heart flutter in a hollow chest.
the second ceroba gets out of sight from clover, she broke down and hugged the container cradling their soul just like she used to hug kanako.
in that moment, ceroba grieved.
in that moment, clover finally knew a mother's embrace.

This is my first time making an actual post rather than just a reblog, so sorry if I miss stuff out.
Heya! If you're reading this then there's a big chance that you're a fan, or have at least heard, of Bakugan. For those who don't know, Bakugan was an anime series that ran from 2008 to 2012 and it had four seasons. It told a story about the extradimensional creatures known as Bakugan and their battle partners, overcoming enemies and obstacles together while going about the objective of the season.
Now, Bakugan has been an important part of my childhood, and still is to this day my favourite series of all time, which is what made me want to create my own version of it! This is more than an AU, this is a deep rewrite of the universe and characters, with an new cast and even new game mechanics (I plan for it to even be playable online).
The first two post are already on the official subreddit in both spanish and english and I'll try to upload something each two weeks. If you have any questions you can ask me here or in the comments of any of the posts. And without further ado, let the battle begin!

Reference for my older Clover design! Mainly so I don't have to hand poor cropped screenshots of artwork when someone asks to see my AU design, LOL.
What would happen if clover got turn into a monster?
How would Ceroba starlos martlet dalv and the feisty five react to it ?
Like say of clover was a dog like a border collie or a fox monster like Ceroba.
Or idk a birdd monster like Martlet or star monster like starlos.
Congratulations, your human has evolved into a monster!!
I feel like it would be a surprise to the Feistyj Four (the "J" is silent), but it wouldn't change much, instead, Starlo would be somewhat confused. This would be something he didn't see in his human movies and magazines. He would probably be glued to Clover asking him if there are more things about humans that he didn't know. On the other hand, Ceroba would be somewhat disturbed by how strange it would be for the little guy to just change to being a monster out of nowhere. Perhaps she would even come to question the same thing Starlo did.
On Martlet's part, I don't think she'd catch on that quickly because of how distracted she can be at times. Although she would be confused, she no longer knows whether or not Clover was a monster from the beginning XD
Dalv doesn't seem to care much, he seems to simply accept that it's a human thing that he wouldn't understand. Still, he's glad to have Clover as a friend.
As a bonus, there are these two doodles.
As such, I haven't really thought through a fact as to why the little guy would turn into a monster. I got to thinking that maybe it's from eating non-human food, but that wouldn't make sense…. I think¿¿ XD
To conclude, I took inspiration from a horned lizard to create Clover's monster form. I also took Starlo as a base. I wanted the boy to have certain resemblances to his father, but not be of the same species, so I simply made him a lizard who, when using his power of justice, can glow slightly. Oh, and this is what his soul would look like.
I hope the design is to your liking. I also apologize for taking so long, drawing this took me longer than I expected.
Hey, d'you want to hear a horrifying Episode Echoes theory?
y'know we've had a lore book entry stating varying encounters with the Vex on Nessus and how weird they're behaving - like a Guardian saying they swore one was making sandcastles etc. kind of weird and almost childlike. And other reports have talked about how the Vex are spontaneously changing, adapting, learning, in a way that is wholly new for them?
so... remember that fucking weird Swarmers lore from Lightfall?
The CloudArk and Neomuna in the early days was being attacked by the Vex though they didn't know then it was the Vex. They were approached by an Axis Mind named Aesop, which offered to help them in exchange for their loyalty. When they refused... the children's connection to the CloudArk was severed which presumably killed them?
It's a nursery rhyme, so isn't going to be 100% historically accurate - it could well be entirely allegorical.
But I can't help but think about the minds of the children and if they got stuck inside the Vex network rather than outright dying...
And some part of them is now inhabiting the Vex...
Actually thinking about it... the Swarmers nursery rhyme is essentially the story of the Pied Piper, who killed the rats in Hamelin, and when they refused the promised payment, lured the children away with music (often implied to be magical, so the children couldn't resist).
Kind of like the Conductor did with Saint...
