Skizzekai Community AU

Welcome to the land of Hermiton, a world saturated with magic in the very ground and air itself. In this AU, the hermits are adventurers, rulers of kingdoms, merchants, and more, all in the setting of a medieval-ish fantasy world. As with past community AUs, the contributions of all you headcanoners will be the driving force. But as a framework to build off, here's a summary of the key points in play at the start of our story.

THE MAGIC

Magic flows through everything in this world, with different types of it being most prevalent in different regions. The most dominant type of magic tends to be absorbed by native plants and animals, changing them to fit, so an area saturated in fire magic would be populated by fiery creatures. This includes sapient species- there are no humans in this world, but there is a staggering variety of fantastical races. Most creatures simply channel their magic through inherent traits, like enhanced speed or a breath weapon, but sapient species can additionally shape and direct their own magic for use as spells, learning and growing their skill with practice. Magical crafting and alchemy is also possible, by using the magical properties inherent in everything from a dragon's scales to the smallest of plants.

THE WORLD

Although independent towns and unclaimed land do exist, most of the world is split up into kingdoms, each one with a different magical specialty from the most dominant type of magic within their borders. One example is the kingdom ruled by Joel Smallishbeans, a king recently ascended to semi-godhood from the belief of his people and the application of his own powerful magic. The magic of this kingdom is that of fate and stories, prophecy and lore, and a recent prophecy has been particularly interesting. They say a hero must be summoned from another world, and that they will be needed to defeat a great evil.

THE SKIZZ

And here comes the titular character. Skizz Leman, a completely normal human from Earth, is brand new to this world. He's just been summoned by a man who calls himself a god, told he's the chosen one, and sent out to save the world. He has no idea how to do that.

As for the roles of other Hermits, the magic they might specialize in and the species they may be- that is all up to you! Assuming you've read the guidelines (under the cut), the fate of this AU lies in the hands of the inbox. Happy headcanoning!

Rules and guidelines:

- The end date will be announced later, when the AU feels like it has hit a natural stopping point. A post announcing the end will be made a day in advance of the inbox closing.

- After the AU closes, any remaining asks will still be posted, and discussion on the discord is still encouraged!

- Canonicity of submissions will be taken on a first come, first serve basis. If a later submission contradicts an earlier one, it will be considered an alternate and not part of the "main" AU canon.

- Alternates will be posted with [ALTERNATE] text. They will all still be posted, every idea should be seen, and discussion of alternates is encouraged on their own posts and on the discord.

- Au-related art and writing is strongly encouraged! Please tag hermitcraftheadcanons in your posts if you would like us to see and reblog it.

- Non-AU-related headcanons are still accepted, but will not be posted until all the Skizzekai asks are cleared out.

Thank you all for being understanding and patient about these rules. If you need clarification, feel free to ask.

WELCOME TO HERMIT-A-DAY MAY 2024!

I'm thrilled to bring this challenge to you all for the second year in a row! Hermit-a-Day May is a challenge inspired by Hermitober, but with a twist: instead of theme prompts, we focus on a specific Hermit every day!

THE RULES: 1. Any type of fanwork is welcome so long as it features, or is otherwise inspired by, the Hermit of the day. 2. Tag #hermitaday to have your fanwork reblogged, or submit it directly to the blog (Please note that while I recognize the value of fanworks involving more mature themes, and they can certainly count toward challenge completion if you're keeping track for yourself, content on this blog will be kept "PG-13" so that all may enjoy.). 3. Fanworks for one Hermit posted after the day rolls over to another Hermit's day (per the US Central time zone) will be reblogged in a big queue in June. 4. I am not interested in seeing captions or tags in which you disparage your art/skills. We're all improving all the time. Be kind to yourselves.

WHY SHOULD I PARTICIPATE? To show love to every Hermit, from the most to least subscribed, from those who have been on the server from day one to those who only joined this season! And because challenges are fun! And because, this year, there's an extra dimension to the event: a fundraiser for Gamers Outreach, featuring art incentives by @rendiggitydog and @belmarzi.

GRAND TOTAL INCENTIVE: For every $150 we raise for Gamers Outreach, belmarzi will make 10 seconds' worth of animatic, featuring as many Hermits as she can fit into the time frame.

INDIVIDUAL DONATION INCENTIVE: For every $65 you personally donate to the fundraiser during the month of May, Rae rendiggitydog will draw you a shaded flats commission of a Hermit of your choice.

WHO’S RUNNING THIS? Hi! My name is Luna! You can use she/her, he/him, ze/hir, or ro/ros/roseself pronouns for me. My main blog is @as-if-unreal. Yep, before you ask, it really is just me, but to be fair I've had a lot of help.

BONUS SUNDAY PROMPTS EXPLAINED UNDER THE CUT

TFC - May 5th While he may no longer be with us physically, TFC left behind him a legacy of quiet care and good humor, and Hermitcraft would not have been the same without him.

FRIENDS OF HERMITCRAFT - May 12th There are plenty of shows, podcasts, competitions, other servers, and more woven into the internet ecosystem around Hermitcraft, and plenty more people involved in them: just as a small number of examples, Season 9's Rift opened up to a whole server of Emperor friends, and there are always allies to be made in MCC and enemies to be made in the Life Series. Today is for celebrating all of those who, while they may not be Hermits themselves, exist and entertain in proximity to them.

FAVORITE "ALT" HERMIT - May 19th HoTGuY and Poultry-Man. Helsknight and Evil Xisuma. Renbob and - look, you get the idea. This server is full of theater kids ready to toss on an alternate skin and play into a brand new character at the drop of a hat. Who's your favorite?

GROUPS AND COLLABS - May 26th This month is all about one Hermit a day... but what we really love is when they interact with each other. What does your favorite duo or group of Hermits get up to together?

#reblog #okay but this is so fucking awesome #and another donation drive is wonderful!! hopefully i can contribute some time :] #i dont think i can manage this entire month but we'll see what happens!! very cool event you guys kudos

[fudgecake-charlie]

I love art it's like: have a cool idea 😊 -> find a reference -> they all suck but try and use a reference anyway 💥-> the anatomy is wrong (it's been an hour at this point) 💥-> give up on using a reference and free-draw 😊 -> take another hour to figure out how this angle works -> slap some colours down 😊-> shit these colours are weird but we can fix this -> adjustment layer -> figure out the background 💥 -> adjustment layer -> another adjustment layer -> TWO HOURS OF PAINTING HELL💥 -> an hour of fixing details -> flip canvas -> Immediately Un-flip Canvas -> adjustment layer -> having fun with more details 😊 -> i really like this!!! 😊 ->💥ten mistakes spotted💥

#the words of a fudgecake #i'm not posting it 😔 maybe be later but if you know me on discord you've maybe seen it? #every time i do a painted piece it goes like this lmao

"Alright, guys, so my boss wanted me to start working on an article for the paper here, and I just so happen to have a few files on some high profile individuals at my disposal... I'm just not sure who I should be writing about, what the people wanna see!

what's martyn's role in the cosmic harbingers au?

HIIII FROG DASH FRAUD my biggest online cosmic harbingers fan hello <3

Martyn and Pearl are close friends and also roommates! well. were close friends and roommates. It's currently pretty messy between the two of them right now, because the whole thing with Pearl ended up with her pushing him away and he's (rightfully) mad about it.

Martyn's whole thing is half, "The fact the world is falling apart soon after everything with me and pearl happened can't be a coincidence, I have to fix this" and half, "I have to talk to Pearl, I want to help her," which makes him pretty much an antagonist in this story :] Whoops :]

Also! I think he's only one of two people in the main cast (Cleo is the other one!) that wasn't inflicted with the Universe curse? He doesn't know the Universe is vaguely sentient and what it looks like and he doesn't have any power whatsoever. He's just a normal guy who doesn't know what's happening but sure as hell wants to.

#cosmic harbingers AU #hermitcraft AU #art out the oven #the words of a fudgecake #ask #frog-fraud #martyn and false are soooo tragic as characters </3 #also sorry for all the AU posting recently my brain is on LOCKDOWN #and i don't really know what kind of hc related art i'd do rn lmao maybe i'm burning out again #as is the nature of being in this fandom for. christ. just over 4 years

[fudgecake-charlie]

I am very good at doing what I need to do! You all get even more cosmic harbingers but this time it's Grian :] (Redraw from under the cut of this ask about a year ago.)

as of the end of joe's stream (which appears to be the last stream live from the gamer's outreach event), it seems we've raised $808,192.83 for gamer's outreach. that is INSANE. i know i keep quoting numbers and saying that's insane but THAT'S NEARLY DOUBLE WHAT WE DID LAST YEAR. THAT'S INSANE. this community is wildly generous and i appreciate it so much. and that was such a fun event, thank you to the hermits for throwing it!
