Nature Lives Au Canary Curse

nature lives au canary curse

okay i am sorry i am posting so much about this au but also i have so many thoughts about them

Lizzie is the bearer of the canary curse, inspired by the fact she was first out in secret life. in this au, she's out first every single season, and it's become a running gag. Eloise knows she's gonna be gone pretty quick when they're soulbound, but she does her best to be tactical about it and prolong Lizzie's time. in 3rd life, she actually does die in the caves when mining because a red name snuck up behind her. since then, she's died in increasingly unlikely scenarios, culminating in her straight up falling into the void in secret life. all of her teammates make it their mission to keep her alive, but it never works out and she just admits defeat by the time she's red

doodle of pearl's cute skin!

thinking about the Taurtis evo B plot. For context I have never watched evo in its entirety but i know the basics so I can say whatever I want on here. But Taurtis being the original watcher, the one who was either put in with the others to blend in or one who was willingly made into one - Taurtis as the one who wanted Grian as a watcher, as the one who manipulated and twisted the players. Taurtis as a genuinely good person who was a long time friend of Grian, who had been across worlds with him, but who was still a watcher. He was a watcher who pretended he had never been a human. and Grian was a human before he was a watcher. There was a reason Grian or Pearl or anybody never mentioned him again.

third life in the nature lives au

alliances!!!!

Shelby & Katherine: they live in one of the small dark oak forests on the map and give out mushroom stew as a silly trade. they throw their lot in with the witch's alliance and use potions quite a lot as well, and for the most part they just try to avoid being on anyone's bad side. Shelby does tend to pick fights with the other faction however and Katherine attempts damage control

Sqaishey, Netty, Stacy, and Lizzie: honestly this is the 2010s era alliance. they find a hill and make it as defensible as possible with lava and cactus, but they reject every other offer of alliance. because of this they don't make it super far and everyone raids their base

Pris, Eloise, & Cleo: the witch's alliance. they mainly deal in potions and enchants, so their base is a giant tower with many dispenser/pressure plate traps loaded with slowness + poison on the way up. their closest allies are Shelby and Katherine, and they share most of their resources with them

Jojo & Pearl: THE powerhouse. they take the desert and use the gravity mechanic of sand to their advantage. they're big pvpers so they don't do traps as much as they build an "arena" in the desert that they can use for the upper hand in battles. they're one of the big factions this season because of how dangerous they are, although Jojo takes it more seriously and Pearl is bigger on pranks

Gem, False, & Stress: they settle on the edge of the desert and maintain good relations with Jojo & Pearl. however, they do keep a lower profile, so they're less of a target and all three of them make it to the final battle.

how the games actually go

Lizzie is out first when red-named Pris follows her caving and takes her out. Lizzie's team is very upset about this and calls it a dirty move on Pris' part because there were greens + yellows she could have targeted instead. this leads to a big rivalry between these two alliances, and the extended witch's alliance eventually takes out Netty and Sqaishey as well. Stacy survives and runs to Jojo and Pearl as a last resort

In exchange for Stacy's allegiance, Jojo and Pearl declare war on the extended witch's alliance. this is a little more than the nature wives bargained for but Cleo strong arms Katherine and Shelby into it. the two sides on the server now look like this: {Katherine, Shelby, Cleo, Pris, and Eloise} versus {Jojo, Pearl, Stacy, Gem, Stress, and False}.

the stronger potions + enchants that the extended witch's alliance have means they are able to take out Pearl and Stacy, but the pvpers on the other side do overpower and kill that entire alliance.

While Jojo is weakened by potions, Gem runs in and one-hits her. As she, False, and Stress all catch their breath from the big battle, things start to calm down for a sec. False is the first to realize that they need to turn on each other. While Gem and Stress are distracted, she finishes them off, taking the crown as the first victor of the series.

False herself dies when she falls on dripstone. it's unsure whether this was purposeful or if, in her guilt-ridden state, she genuinely didn't notice the pointed stalagmites.
