A Family Can Just Be….

... car

Happy one year anniversary ISAT! To celebrate I wanted to share the lil strips I made for my friends when they reached the end of the game! They're all meant to be snippets of life post game and a glimpse into the world I'm making for Loop.

So one of the most lore-indepth wildcards of Wild Life would be the superpowers that relates past seasons of the Life Series and acknowledges other series (eg. Hermitcraft and Evo) and their personal lore to attribute to each participant's power.

Starting alphabetically,

Bdubs power is essentially all related to time and his ability to manipulate the day cycle expentially. With the clock being his main motif across all Life Series, the ability to slow and speed time according to his will is easily solvable but with the inclusion of the Hermitcraft and Empires crossover event, his ability to speed time according to his sleep schedule becomes another layer deep. Besides the clock being a main symbol for Bdubs, the concept of sleep is another that has essentially been from the beginning of Hermitcraft. Always carrying a bed and sleeping whenever. The Empires crossover Bdubs was framed as a god of sorts of the Sun. Always bright and always there when the Sun remained as its brightest.

Bigb can summon creaking. He creaking. He is like a king or dimplomant to the players who invade their home and they view him as their kin so he has the responsibility and power to summon them.

Ethoslab based of Kakashi from Naruto is by definition a ninja. An escapee or fugitive at best. So with his ability to jump higher boosted by wind charges can be explained by his connection to the shonen series and the inclusion of the mace could be chalked up to typically stories of protagonists gaining resources or inventory to defeat the "Big Bad" or achieve some sort of goal that is to win the Life Series.

GeminiTay or GeminiSlay named by others intimidated by her, has slayed each participant brutally in the Life Series and on Hermitcraft rewarding her the reputation from her immense PvP skills. So with her power of astral projection, it acts retribution for the slayed to talk and apologise or instigate to those dead for her or others benefit.

GoodTimeWithScar is nortorious for being not PG friendly so the inclusion of one of his powers been the ability to ride people, it's self explanatory. Yet as Scar is commonly associated with and as a vex, his other powers of extreme knockback and thorns can be explained by the hostile and aggressivness of the mob.

Grian as essentially the grandmaster or orchestrator of the Life Series would have access to all the powers and mimic but not fully copy the others' powers. Yet because of his power chained by an omnipresent force, he's unable to fully copy the powers but imitate them for only short periods of time.

ImpulseSV and his teleportation powers could derive from his cyber-theme aesthetic for his Hermitcraft Season X base. With most series of fictions based around cyberpunk civilisations, technologies like teleporation and other advanced transportational devices are commonly utilsed. Resulting in Impulse's power of teleportation and the ability to swap the position of another with himself.

Martyn power is boosted hearing cause he's a Listener.

So Lizzie or LDShadowLady's inflicts blindless or a shadow upon the surrounding people in her radius and resulting her in temporary invisibility and blindess to others around her. But from her endless descent into the void in Secret Life, arises Lizzie with trails of the void clinging to grasp the light of the overworld. Causing the void remnants to spread to others and infect them with blindness in all for the hope to spread towards the light from the cold world of the End.

With the ability to fly, PearlescentMoon carries aesthetics relating to Greek mythology in both her powers and external design choices. As one of the Postmasters of Hermitcraft, Pearl is essentially the builder and additional redstone help of the trio for the postoffice and other aesthetic designs. Hermes the herald or messenger of the Olympus gods delievers messages to other celestial dieties and mortals similar to Pearl's jobs as a Postmaster. Other than the similar professions, both Pearl and Hermes wear a petasos which is essentially a wide-brimmed hat that is commoly adorned for shade and for Hermes, additional wings to the sides of the hat. Symbolising their shared ability to fly quickly and efficiently for a purpose.

As RentheDog is commonly interpreted as a dog-hybrid of sorts by the Hermitcraft and Life Series community, his ability to splice and copy the DNA of others to match their appearance could be an aftermath or positive side-effect from his hybrid mutation.

Similar to Ren, Scott has the capability to transform into any mob in sight and similar to Limited Life where he was depicted as a siren as part of the Mean Gills. His ability to shape-shift into any mob regardless if it's passive or aggressive could be similar to his mutliple origins from New Life SMP and Origin SMP and the reflect the changing nature of his powers.

So Joel with essentially triple jump could be hinting his slimely origins of his Shrek skin in the swamp. Where the swamp generally spawns slimes at a higher rate than other slime chunks and slime blocks harvested from the slimes can be used as jump boosts. Resulting in the triple jump.

After just breaking the Canary Curse two seasons ago, SolidarityGaming or Jimmy has the power to turn fully invisible until someone or something damages him. Ever since his debut to the Watchers back in Evo, Jimmy has been under constant surveillance by the Watchers as an object of their amusement. Always failing to reach even the finale and fumbling to keep alive. Yet when he broke the curse and relayed it too another, he was discarded. Seen invisible to the Watchers as he had become an object of boredom by reaching his resolution. So that's where his invisibility comes from.

Tango with his cowardly approach to things, has constantly ran away from situations but with this power, it supercharges his speed allowing him to become part of the fight and conflict instead of running away. And with his ability to frost-walk on ice, it could recall his Season 9's skin back when he was the Dungeon Master in Decked Out II and became an icy persona.

Theorious and Headcannonious Pt. 27

So only three episodes into Wild Life and already manslaughter has occured. Tying with Third Life and Double Life for first red, Skizz continuously returning to red three times and being only third to most deaths in a session to Limited Life at it's final two sessions. That's insane. Only an eleven death difference between session three of Wild Life to session eight, the final session of Limited Life.

With this amount of bloodshed and murder since Limited Life, the dieties starving from their fuel deprived from them are finally quenched through the chaos and dissary triggered by the dozens of deaths causing by the harbringers of death. From their prodigies who conducted multitudes of destruction and slaugher through every rendition of Third Life, the Watcher's hunger and strive to satisfy their bottomless appetite for chaos caused their need to be only alleviated. Fueled by the obessesion and excitment gained from the suffering of the contestants.

As with the current seasons arrives new plots and twists to the main gimmick and lore, Wild Life's new gimmick is that there is a new gimmick every session. Each session of Wild Life so far has tripled each death count and with the inclusion of each personalised snail in seassion three, deaths skyrocketed to THIRTY-SEVEN deaths. Each snail acting as an individual catalyst for the Watchers' addiction towards the demise of each participant. But this obsession would be the eventual end of the Watchers.

How long until the lives run out and the Watchers' only source of excitment and energy disappears. Their reliance and dependacy on the players is their downfall. After every game, every session the players understand and adapt to the Watchers' everygrowing starvation. It's until the last remains, the last game is won and their buffet is over. They only being able to fast on the legacy and memories trapped inside the minds of the scarred.

Yet the legacy and aftermath of the actions of the Watchers could be the reserved food source that can supply them with the lasting food source to continue watching and manipulating the stories of the damned and suffering. Session three, Skizz managed to return to red three seperate times. Slaughtering the other contestants to gain back his immunity and innoence from the blood of his allies. Through his actions, the Watcher's legacy is kept alive as the final food source. Through the memories and influence of the Watchers, they might not even be close to their end.

Theories and Headcannons Pt.30

So finale is going out in around eight hours and yet the pacing of Wildlife leaves many participants as potential winners for the sixth installment of the Life Series. But I'm willing to bet that Tango has the possibility of being the winner of Wild Life.

Being the notorious coward of the Life Series, Tango has managed to place an average placement of 11th across all seasons of the Life Series. But with each progression of the series, each Lifer's skill in PvP, gathering and teaming has drastically improved over the three years since Third Life.

This is especially prevelent with Tango with his cowardly stratagies that allow him to avoid conflict until the climax of each season but it's different in Wild Life. With the two major teams of the Extended Family and the G's, the Tough Guys that include Bdubs, Etho and Tango are able to stay out of the sidelines and avoid majority of the conflict due to their red life and relatively peaceful alliances.

Adding on to his avoiding nature, Tango was able evade majority of the server in the previous session of Wild Life just for his green life. So with his avoidance nature and strategic alliance Tango just might be able to achieve first place.

With the shattering of the Canary curse that used to cling to Jimmy throughout the Life Series, a new curse or mantle has emerged known as the "Spider (Black Widow)" that has chosen Grian as its vessel. It's been like that ever since Limited Life, where Grian has consistently being the last one eliminated from his team.

As spiders are commonly known for producing delicate pieces of webbing to capture prey or the unfortunate, it fits Grian and his inherent responsibility over the Life Series. Every teammate of his from the Badboys, Roomies and the Spanners has tread the web of uncertainty and fallen prey to the predator that is Grian. Acting as a false support or friend until the final endgame where Grian conicidently outlives them and directly moves onto a different team to join them (with the exception of Secret Life where his alliance was killed in the finale with him). Seemingly to catch new prey for a larger feast.

Even his latest defensive build of the tower in Wild Life where he dubbed it as "The Spider's Nest" where both his teammates died essentially wraps Grian's arc of being the inheritent of the "Black Widow" curse and catching his teammates from his own doing.
