Man. This is a terrible time for it because my mental health took a major blow recently and my brain’s lifting power is like 2lbs right now but. I need to get back to writing all my silly fun OC-insert fics with Wynn throwing into any canon I think she’d be fun in. Some brief details about Wynn: A magic user who specializes in and has a deep magical connection with plants. Loves to travel and make friends and feels restless if she settles down for too long. Lives in the woods more than in towns. Looks a lot like Ed Eric from FMA if he was female and around 6′ tall, down to taste for red coats (eyes are green instead of gold though). Age varies by AU. Distrusts authority and resents being controlled. Favored weapon is a scythe but actual weapon varies by AU. Her default setting is Modded Minecraft (with crossovers with FMA and Trigun), but there’s a bunch of original setting versions for her, too. -- The “bookverse”, a “off-brand European” setting fantasy with demons (otherworldly monstrosities) and undead (one of whom is her ex girlfriend) and an evil dragon. Named because it’s the version I’m most likely to be able to write and turn into a saleable book. This and the Minecraft version are the “main” versions of Wynn from which we tend to start crossovers. -- The “City AU”, a mixed modernish fantasy setting where we stole the abandoned original Zootopia idea of shock-collars on the “dangerous” types of magic users and Wynn is part of a social movement to stop enforcing collar wearing. -- The mer au. Low magic setting around the industrial age (ambiguous). Wynn is out on a fishing trip with her husband and meets and befriends a starving merman who gets tangled in their fishing net. She then gets dragged into the attention of an anti-human merfolk gang. -- The villain AU. Very cliche off-brand European fantasy where Wynn is one of the generals in the army of her adoptive father who is the main villain of the plot. Her love interest is the destined hero prophecied to save his homeland from destruction. ...turns out it’s by falling in love with her and turning her and her army against her father. Special note: If I talk about “mage Wynn” I almost always mean either “Minecraftia-verse” or “Book-verse”. They have a lot in common and can sometimes be interchangeable depending on context. And with all those original AUs you probably won’t be shocked to find there’s some fandom AUs: -- Reaperverse. An FMA au that actually has a fic started for it. Be Thou For the People. Wynn is a State Alchemist called The Reaping Alchemist, who works in agricultural science. She gets sucked into the shenanigans of the Brotherhood/manga plot but like, on the backend where Roy is not in the front with Ed and co. ---- Chimera AU. AU of Reaperverse. The chimera labs made way more human chimera than in canon and in fact, Roy is a secret chimera. Wynn and her sister Alphys are given their first assignment outside the labs, and Wynn is meant to become a State Alchemist but fails, and Roy takes her in as an apprentice in a bid to block the labs from taking her back as a failure. ---- War AU. AU of Reaperverse. Wynn is born earlier and is a contemporary with Roy and ends up also apprenticed to Berthold but is judged unsuitable for learning Flame Alchemy. Ends up in Ishval with Roy and starts up a romance with him after. Despite being a “trunk” AU, this is more notable for its sub AUs and we rarely discuss the main version any more. -- Soul Eater AU. Wynn and her boyfriend (who’s her weapon (sword)) and her ex girlfriend are in the year above Maka. Wynn is a two-star Meister and she’s a witch’s soul away from creating a death scythe and it’s driving her absolutely batty. I have a lot of Soul Eater still to watch so this AU is subject to a lot of change as I learn more about the plot and setting. -- D.Gray-man. This one is still pretty new and I don’t recall all the special terms but Wynn is one of the Innocence-wielding Akuma fighters and a lot of what she’s up to that we talk about takes place a bit before and during the first part of the manga plot. I’ve read through 199 so this is another AU subject to change as I learn more about canon. Then there’s the crossovers. -- Hollow Knight. MC mage Wynn falls through the void after fighting the Minecraft dragon and ends up falling OUT of the void in Hollow Knight, down in the Ancient Basin. She then has to find her way through Deepnest, and the Queen’s Gardens, and then I petered out of steam before she crossed paths with the knight as it went through the plot of the game. -- Kingdom Hearts. We haven’t touched this AU in a while and I forgot a lot of the details but I just want to mention that it is, in fact, a thing. Mary got me sucked into KH and we’re going to make it our OC’s problem. -- Avatar: The Last Airbender (Embers). Mage Wynn falls through the void and ends up getting noticed as she passes by a spiritual realm where the great spirits grab her with the idea of using her as a tool to help untangle a mess of fate that they’re dealing with. They already have pieces in place, but another will bent to the cause can’t hurt, right? This isn’t canon Avatar, though. This is set in Embers, by Vathara. Zuko has healing fire and [spoilers]. And Wynn is granted the ability to bend in ADDITION to her magic as she’s dropped into the middle of Ba Sing Se on the very night Zuko is granted a very special apprenticeship. THIS one is the reason I’m writing this post right now. Because I am getting the urge to return to this AU, redo the parts I’ve already written, and take this story further. So I’ll see if I can follow through on that desire because dang it. I do miss writing. For the record Every. Single. One. of those AUs have variations where this or that happens differently, and many of them have full sub-AUs. For example, both mage Wynns (MC and book) have werewolf AUs where one of more of the main characters get werewolves curses and have to do a ritual to gain control of the curse. In the latest version we discussed, they found a whole village of secret werewolves who helped them and they ended up joining that village and just becoming part of the extended pack. The War AU has basically be overshadowed by its sub AUs and we only bring it up in the context of those sub AUs or for making a new one. Many of the AUs also have “angel” variants which is a whole other post. ...I’m going to be talking about this A LOT more.
