Adding On To The Wreath Gang Thing: Wreath Wanted Val To Be A Necromancer Again - Tumblr Posts
Actually, before I forget, I’d like to talk about how the god-killer weapons are used in my AU! After all, they’re one of the few things that can still kill characters like Valkyrie and Mevolent. This one will be a lot shorter because there’s a lot less to say, just me giving a bit of info about where they’re at.
Valkyrie still has the fragments of the katehedral crystal inside her, so she’s basically a walking god-killer. She’s also gained a stronger control of her power since AMFoM, so she can shoot well-controlled beams and won’t accidentally obliterate her friends. This also makes her an on-sight target for many groups, since she can never be disarmed now. On another note, she cannot absorb the souls of people who were killed by god-killers, so they’re quite a source of frustration for her.
Additionally, the katehedral crystal (I think that’s how it’s spelled?) is actually pretty unhealthy for Valkyrie to have in her system, and it’s had some pretty adverse effects on her magic. Adding on to the fact that some of Valkyrie’s powers are growing weaker in AMFoM, the katehedral is basically draining them and by now it’s nearly impossible for her to access that vein of magic (although she has no problem with her god powers and can still replicate other’s magic). It was originally the Wreath gang who figured out how badly the crystal was affecting her (this being a few months prior to her turning into a god) and attempted to perform something of a surgery on her to get rid of the crystal? It didn’t work, hence why Valkyrie still shoots black lightning.
Other than that, the four god-killers are still around. Skulduggery has the sword, which makes the two of them an incredibly dangerous duo and make other groups avoid them even more. Mevolent got the short end of the stick and has the dagger, which he often uses to execute enemies or prisoners that he never wants to risk coming back. Winter has the spear, and she pretty much keeps it with her at all times. And lastly, Saracen has the bow (the Sanctuary doesn’t have a god-killer but does have Saracen).
Since god-killers are such a rare and useful commodity in this war, there was a several-year effort to try and find other dimensions that they could raid for god-killers (“they” being most or all of the local groups in this context). However, everybody eventually gave up because of how difficult it was to locate other habitable dimensions, let alone other habitable dimensions with god-killers (I’m going to note here that they do not have the knowledge of what the Darquesse society used to find Darquesse. In fact, none of them have probably questioned it).
And that should be all. Nice and short, might come in useful. I like making use of the god-killer weapons.
