The Lands of Evelon: Difference between revisions

{{work}}

 

 

The greatest difference between Evelon and our Earth? In addition to humans, Evelon is inhabited by a vast number of intelligent, sapient [[Mons]]. Though these creatures have no official names, they do have many nicknames--"pet" is probably the most common (and the one generally accepted as [[Fanon]]), since they frequently work with, and are allied to, humans. Others include "creatures" and "critters..." And every other word for "animal" under the sun. Like all good [[Mons]], they have a variety of abilities unavailable to most humans--they can control elemental powers, warp time, travel between this world and the spirit world, see into the past and future, and a host of other things. But humans are not to be trifled with in this land, either--many of them have unusual abilities of their own, and some of them even have [[Mons]] at their core as well...

 

Because listing every trope used by every single character from every single player on the site would get ugly, only character tropes used in "canon" or by a vast number of players shold be counted here.

 

* [[Arbitrary Headcount Limit]]: Players can only adopt 3 pets of a specific species and/or species and color combination, though they can trade for as many members of a non-[[Com Mons]] species as they can hold on to.

* [[Big Badass Wolf]]: The Lucain, who are not only bigger than ordinary wolves, but have bodies covered in sharp blades. The ''[[Our Werewolves Are Different|Were]]''cain have even ''more'' blades, and are still huge.

** The Lucain also have separate poses for male and female, as well as males having two tails while females have three. There is also one male-exclusive marking (Warrior) and one female-exclusive marking (Feyline). However, there is one special case where a male Lucain has a female image, but it's a one-time situation.

* [[Com Mons]]: Any pet type freely available on the game's main adoption site is considered a common, and cannot be traded (but can still be played with however one likes). Although some species do eventually "retire," those put up on the main site are generally "hoarded" by players, and rarely trade for much.

** Pig: The Taosig

** Ox: The Tuskow

** Tiger: The Taigra

** Dragon: The Xing Yun

* [[Giant Flyer]]: Many--both in giant bird form, and in several type of [[Our Dragons Are Different|dragon-type pets.]]

* [[Horse of a Different Color]]: There are many ridable creatures, ranging from giant tarantula/praying-mantis hybrids to hyenas.

* [[Interspecies Romance]]: There are only three breedable species, but lots of people enjoy having [[Mons]] of wildly varying species have romantic relationships with each other.

* [[MacGuffin Girl]]: In the 2007/2008 Imperial/Purine war plot, Rini the Preluhna was the Maiden's Tear, a gift from a Goddess said to grant immense power.

* [[Mineral MacGuffin]]: The Maiden's Tear--or [[MacGuffin Girl|so it was assumed.]]

* [[Our Dragons Are Different]]: ''Many''--the Hollowhearts and the Battlehearts are the "standard" draconic pets, but the ultra-rare [[Meaningful Name|Paragon]] are probably the most "different." Among their differences: Many of them have more than 2 eyes, wings made out of crystal or bone, the power to conduct electricity through tentacles on their heads, [[Pokémon|Charizard]]-like tail flames...

* [[Olympus Mons]]: In the Imperial/Purine War, the 6 most decorated players (the ones who'd amassed the highest score) were each given an elemental egg, which hatched into, and became, the first six [[Our Dragons Are Different|Paragon]], each one the embodiment of an element.

* [[Random Number God]]: While the Random Event giver is an actual user on the site, she has recently begun using a die to determine which RPs she will appear in.

** Also, two recent pets, the Rabbot [[OP 1]] and [[MG 1]], are based on [[Transfomers]].

* [[There Are No Therapists]]: Many of the characters have some sort of mental trauma. However, any therapists would probably be murdered within seconds.
