Anyone got some "what-if" ideas for the Arcane Universe

What if powerscaling actually made sense

(Fun fact, this series has MAJOR troubles with gauging the power of the player character through gameplay and story!)

What if the MC were to steal General Argos’ cursebane, and shank Julian? How would this affect the plotline?

This is a Glass Curse Odyssey.

I know I’ve mentioned this before, but
Anything Goes AU
Anything that has ever been canon, widely-accepted fanon, or even teenage Tech’s vaguely lore-connected ramblings, could be added (slightly rewritten for continuity purposes, of course). It’s set in WoM and (if I ever properly write it) will be in 3 parts. That’s all I have to share for now but I’ll probably make a designated post about it eventually

What if

The Abyss Sea Was Real

What if both Theos and Durza were blamed for The Fracture by the survivors and equally despises them both?

No Theos religion, Theos wears disguises, done.

People barely know the fracture exists
Worst that’ll happen is like Warren doesn’t like him or something

What if Achurza was in the War Seas instead of the Seven Seas

Think about it, a hero who keeps doing good deeds despite being hated.

Also could be influential to Peacekeeper if Theos dies and the A.G celebrates his death.

You know that whole Theos religion I mentioned?

What if there was a 5th stat called “Music” and it unlocked instruments

Bard finna heal the party with the power of music

What if Durza was betrayed and trapped in the hyperbolic time chamber for 100 years

what if AO nations were able to industrialize and a War Seas World War scenario happens where AS start’s the war by assassinating the King Admiral kicking off a huge war with Keraxe on AS and Sameria and Ravenna on GS, I feel that Corsair County would also wage war just for the fun. Then they develop the Nuclear Bomb by stealing a Atomic Magic user and testing him in inhuman ways which they were then able to drop on Makrinaos and wipe the Red Corner off Bronze Sea.

What if my crush had feelings for me

What if Zeus’ side won during the Olympian war? It’s not as if he held any authority over magic, he would have had to convince Prometheus to remove humanity’s ability to wield it, if he even could in the first place.

Zeus weapons, provided they’re passed down through lineage, become surprisingly common

mystery man comes along and trips Zeus down the stairs to Tartarus, does the scheme again with somebody who’s less stupid.

What if sky islands were actually were real in the Arcane Universe?
