Welcome to the MTG flake/lore thread!

Previously: Flakepoint was discussed, Gideon has some impressive "charisma," spider mom lives in an octohedron. Innistrad's last hope is garbage. Lots of other stuff too, but idk.

Previous thread: >>48108493

Writefagging last time: Probably somewhere. I'm too lazy, kids.


REMINDER:

If you want ANYTHING to go in the repo, just summon me. Otherwise I will only put writefagging and sheets in the repo.

Also, I added the blank template to the ALL FLAKESHEETS folder.

To summon me simply say
>OP OP, I SUMMON THEE. PLACE THIS FILE IN THE REPOSITORY.
And I will do nothing because I don't have access to it.

"He was paying so little attention to his surroundings that he didn’t see the trio of planeswalkers who were coming his way, and apparently so invested in their conversation were they that neither party took notice of the other.

And yet, we have the Tarkir block.

>>48124923
I am not sure it works like that. Kharn had to literally make himself of pure silver again to time travel and it was incredibly difficult for him anyway.
>>48124884
Who cares, fucking simics.
>>48124897
It is less immortality and more... oldwalkerness, now that i think about it. Or eldraziness. Basically existing outside of the contingency of life.
>>
>>48124935
Technically yes. He phased himself, Tolarian Academy, and an island and a half out and then made it reappear in the future. No time had passed for them.
>>
>>48124955
>an island and a half
that sentence keeps really fucking bugging me. Is it ever acknowledged that it's only HALF a fucking island?
>"Well we got the main island, and half of that one. No big, we got the important side with the nice mountain."
>>
>>48124965
That's pretty dead on. And yes, they only acknowledge it briefly when they realize everything that just phased out is gone.
>>
>>48124955
It is not time travel tho, it is removin them from time. A stasis. Teferi himself admits that he is not able to time travel in planar chaos.
>>48124946
Because not even wotc knows their own canon.
>>
>>48125019
Maybe the Mending made time travel possible without silver? Or something? And that's why the canon is inconsistent?

Still, leaving one designated time. Appearing at a future date. And no time having passed for you. That to me is traveling through time. Time travel is more of a perception of the ability rather than how the ability achieves time travel.

And I really need to see Intersteller. Still haven't watched it yet.

Yes but it is only going forward, and i don't think Teferi could have pulled it off on such a big scale without oldwalker powers.
>>
>>48125326
Very true. But, I believe that is time travel is true irl that it's only capable of future travel. I believe that past travel isn't possible because if you go back and change something, you are eliminating the need for yourself to go back and change said thing, and thus you never actually went back and changed it.

Now, the interesting part of this theory is what happens to a person if they try to travel to the past and change it? I like to believe the moment you try, you fade away from existence.

Missed out on the Flakepoint discussion, but here's my thoughts on au versions of my flakes
>Veldren
Had he not been thrown into the volcano, he would've stayed in his island home, learning more of the natural magic of his home plane and he probably would have learned how to fly instead of using his wings as makeshift danger science shields during his time as an Izzet "scientist"
>Frances
Had he never been threatened or marked for death, he would've been a UW mage, keeping records and teaching others how to write notes on political intrigue without being killed.
>Belloski
Would've been a mono-black lifestealing monster a la Bolas. Turning point? Never deciding to turn into a dragon, since that infused him with a desire for material things to fit the look, and the Mending humbled him enough to not backstab every planeswalker he meets with bad deals.

Excellent name for it.
>Leon
Had he not been targeted by rebels, they might have struck somewhere else, growing bolder and bolder until they had assassinated his father and older siblings. When Leon took the throne, he would not tolerate rebellion in 'his' empire. Would have maybe gone Mardu with all the black shit he did to maintain control over a failing Empire.

Sadly, Serena's ignition is kind of set in stone. Unless she was distant from Avacyn and was not overly upset over her death, in which case she'd just be a supremely angry angel, possibly B/R?

Unless I missed the point and it was that we no longer had sparks, in which case that universes Serena would be another tentacled monstrosity without her spark to shield her from Emrakul's influence.
>>
>>48125373
Dunno, I don't think time travel can be achieved. And anyway, I don't care if a flake timewalks as long as it is cool...
>>48125662
So you better make it cool.
>>
>>48125720
Time travel does exist irl. We're all time travelers, it's just that we go forward in time 1 second per second, so we never realize it.
>>
>>48125685
Interesting. Wouldn't want Will to be any closer to a main character except massive a villain the altered heroes try to stop. I figure it woukd end with an alliance of flakes teaming up to revert his flake point and thus set up our permanently retconned flakes.

Or maybe he wants to simply let things be because this way his Wife is happy and he has their kids, having learned his lesson. Now flakes must convince or force him to change things back

Will really needs to stop fucking with the timeline
>>
I've been stuck on this part for like five minutes

“Nishal, this is fantastic!” She exclaimed, hugging the leonin around the middle of his mass and resting her head on his chest. “Oh, I missed dancing. On Esper there would be a dance every week, and we would attend them all.” She felt his arms circle her, resting gently on her back. His paws, massive as they were, took up the entirety of the small of her back. She liked the feel of it, for once not pushing the voice in the back of her mind down. She continued telling him all about her home on Esper, leaning into him as he started to rock back and forth.

Rakkor could go through it, not sure how he'd change though. Maybe become a bigger dick, or sacrifice his alternate self since it'd be White because of Angels instead of Vampires background.

Truth be told, I left it intentionally ambiguous.

But vaguely, I'd imagined she had formed an alliance long ago between other oldwalkers. And during the time she was married to Will, something happened, and she had to make good on that alliance.

Do you have any ideas for it? Chronologically, it would've taken place about 900ish years before the current magic story line.

I realized, retrospectively, that SOI was already pulling that alliance bs, and sucking at it. But seriously tho, I imagined a war was being fought, not resealing lelCthulu. Maybe an oldwalker war? That sounds thoroughly terrifying and worth attention.
>>
>>48133304
Imagine going to war with basically the multiverse. Planes burn, horror from beyond sanity unleashed fueled by mana pyres of the dying sacrifices, and all the extremes of every color invoked. Imagine seeing the greatest beauties deformed into unspeakable terrors of mass destruction, and then coming home to finding out while you were trying to protect your children and husband, some fucking vampire marched and army up and slaughtered them. All those nights of struggling on, saying it was worth it, just for them. That for that single corner of the multiverse, you'd do anything to keep it safe. The crimes against nature committed, the innocents sent like lambs into meat grinders, the nightmares you'll carry with you forever.

Christ, that sounds terrifying. I like it.

Ok, I really, really like that. Edgy as it is, you've captured a good characterization of what I wanted to go for. Excellent. It's a testament of willpower, and makes William's fall to insanity all the more potent.

>>48133585
I like it, but unfortunately it takes place a few centuries too late to be the war Gaia fought in. Perhaps a different planeswalker war? The multiverse is so large, I wouldn't be surprised if there'd been others.
>>
>>48134585
She got one in BFZ. Kiora, Master of the Depths Nearly fucked up the "burninate the Eldrazi" plan too.

>>48134640
I'm not sure how that would have affected Will's sanity since he was at wherever Gaia's home was at the time, but I was more interested in how that reflects in Gaia's story. Does she know any of the other oldwalker flakes from it? I remember there was some black 'death' flake who was trying to get in her story.
>>
>>48134331

Fudge you poof, you would say shit like that. Sorrin best plains walker.
>>
>>48134585
She tried to foil the gatewatch plan because it was going sideways fast, which led them to turning the mana into a huge fireball, and stormed off after they destroyed the two titans
>>
>>48135247
Actually, I'd imagined that Vronak probably was one of the oldwalkers in the alliance, and fought in the war. But that is up to his anon.

>I'm not sure how that would have affected Will's sanity
More that his insanity compounds the tragedy. From Will's p.o.v., Gaia abandoned them. She could have used her power at any point to save his children or return. He'd thought she was dead. And suddenly, just minutes too late, she reappears after ten years? She couldn't have arrived sooner to save them all? Save the kids? Save him? But of course, between the tragedy and the horrors of the Blind Eternities, Will's mind had already begun to grow unstable by this point. But still, I imagine he blamed her for their deaths.

But what he didn't know, and what she couldn't tell him, was how violent and catastrophic the war was, how needed she was elsewhere. So the war, and your comment, finally helps fill in her p.o.v.

Also, would you have an interest in Eӧl as well? I'll make a flakeplane sheet for it eventually, but I want to know how highly I should put it on my list of priorities.
>>
>>48134585

Kiora contributed basically nothing to the war against the Eldrazi besides getting Lorthos killed when it turned out throwing him at Kozilek with no further plan involved was not sufficient to defeat the alien god from the blind eternities (WHO'D HAVE FUCKING THOUGHT?) and very nearly doomed everyone by trying to abort the desperation attack on the Eldrazi in the eleventh hour in the vague hope they'd just leave.

So whatever she's up to now that Zendikar is unfucked, "nothing good" is probably a fair enough descriptor.

I kind o think they've got a clear story by now. She left Eol, mastered the five colors over a long lifetime of possibly thousands of years, and settled down with Will on Ulgrotha. Had a family, got called to an Oldwalker war where atrocities and crimes against nature took place over decades on countless planes. Came home to find in her absence her husband and family got wrecked by some common, uppity vampire while she tried to protect them from the rest of the universe.

Will believes she abandoned them by pretending she went to war or whatever reason, and is driven crazy by seeing the Blind Eternities as well as seeing everyone he knows and loves murdered before his eyes. Thinking Gaia and all her colored magic failed or left them for dead, he starts using colored magic. Corrupted by the unnatural or at least unusual magics, he masters time magic while searching for his Great Truth that was inspired by Eldrazi or the Blind Eternities. Takes students, and skips over timelines to cheat to the end results of experiments.

Gaia decides to make her own plane at last, and using thousands of years of earned knowledge creatures a world cut off from the Blind Eternities. Will grows curious about unexpected results in his experiments, and uses thousands of years of cheated knowledge to trick a way into this fake plane he deduces to be absent of colorless mana since unknown to him Gaia didn't know it. Gaia's world breaks down and only Belagir escapes. Will cheats death, and decides to make things right

Ok, In Flashpoint instead of Thomas and Martha dying in the alley, Bruce died
so Thomas Wayne became Batman in that timeline, but he was a much more brutal Dark Knight than his son would have been.
So War Gaia would be much more violent than Original Gaia, never having grown past the point she was at during the war. Will ends up coming back to her, some stuff happens and she's the one who gives him the kick in the ass that he needs to go back and undo that shit like Thomas Wayne did in Flashpoint.
>>

Nah, I just would love the scene of Gaia writing a letter to William and telling Zix that he needs to get back to the proper line because without William nothing else matters.

I agree with you. Write it. But unfortunately, I'll have to say it's non-canon for at least these two timelines we're messing with, because I don't see a way to squeeze it into her narrative. Still, I want to see what you churn out.

Honestly I'm completely against the idea of flake point. As a newcomer, apparently I have to reset my character. Also the whole hate against some of the walkers that 'should not be' (IE messenger and Serena) seem to be because no one read the fucking fluff behind them. (Messenger had his Spark given to him, Serena was a human whom essentially had Call to Serve cast on her)

I'm fine with bringing certain flakes into propper line, but forcing change on onto other flakes is fucking retarded.

Its the current 'flake' storyline getting pushed. It's basically block 1 chronoshift to alternate versions of flakes for fun, block 2 retcon anything about your flake you dont like. Dont have to change anything of you want, it's just for fun. Rakkor for example, is pretty much the same and just a dick.
>>
>>48145747
You just have to wait until 90% flakes stop making stories for that. You cant possibly take part in it since people will just go "Ugh, you didnt even retcon that shit.".

I know for sure mine aren't going to partecipate nor change. They both are pretty legit- though I MAY take the phyrexian oil out to replace it with normal acid. I may. But that has nothing to do with a retcon.

I have to say if it is aimed to make people left, it has having the right effect on me.

Hi, Will anon here, to talk to you about FLAKEPOINT!

Are you feeling left out? Like the thread is a giant circlejerk around a bunch of namefagging flake makers? Well, honestly, you're not wrong! Part of this is because these things should have probably died out a long time ago to make way for a new flakestorm! Yet people through force of will, and affection for the creations of themselves and others have kept this labor of love alive! And that's not bad, but it builds cliques and can give people like YOU a sense of being unable to have fun or contribute!

Now let me tell you what FLAKEPOINT is and isn't! What it originally is, was my attempt to finish Will's time travelling, chronologically abusive story line after my return from months awol from this unliving, eternal thread. Time travel is one hell of a drug through, and options to give other people happy endings or other changes were thrown in. One pun later we were dubbed FLAKEPOINT. It's perpetuated by myself to give an ending to Will, and others to have fun.

What it is: A storyline that is more or less a piss poor attempt to fill in the gaps that the conclusion of the Innistrad block has given us since we lack a driving, canonical story! An attempt to recall one of my favorite blocks, Chronoshift and all the alternate world shenanigans that came with it! A chance to retcon stuff YOU don't like, and fuck anyone else who has a problem with your flake.

What is isn't: A circle jerk to punish you or your flakes for not meeting 'standards'! Yeah, there's going to be assholes who says your flake is shit. FUCK THEM! Sometimes we get trolls and people get defensive about their lore. Sometimes people have reason for their flakes being different from lore. But no matter what, remember the golden rule: WE'RE ALL EQUALLY SHITTY OC'S SNOWFLAKES. No matter if you married Jace or are just some bumfuck white soldier planewalker, everyone is just as bad. But no one should give you shit if you don't change your character!

Woah.
What a bunch of words just to say "everything that was done when I wasn't here is not canon and I don't like it".
