Description

SO


I have a Werewolf Hunter AU for Maelstrom now in which Trenton is a werewolf hunter, but instead of hunting and killing them, he was helping them control their beast side and recover their humanity so that they wouldn’t attack people.  I posted a gigantic, rambling post about the world and stuff on my tumblr that you can read at your own discretion.  It is long.

This actually seems to be one of the best AU's!!! I really like how it's balanced. It's actually replaced the Spy AU as my favorite. (that's saying a lot ) Mumsy really got the short end of the stick in this version. XD I like how he's trying to help others that suffer from the same affliction. He could just try to protect himself but he's far too heroic for that! GO TRENTON!

WOW!!  Thank you!!! :0  I feel like the development for it has come really easy (and I'm very excited about it, so that helps lol), while the Spy AU is a little more all over the place since I don't have a solid story for it as of yet. ^_^;


LOL Yeahhh, either she makes it off scott free or not at all in the Maelstrom AUs...


Yus!  I feel like the AUs give me a chance to explore different aspects of the characters, which is good for development for the story proper!

Such a freaking cool idea! I really hope he's not hunting down Haddock! I love the gleam of his cigarette and how the burning light catches the edge of his knife too! I love your use of monochrome here too, it only adds to the drama of the pose and the deadly glare on Trenton's face- I wouldn't want to cross him on a dark and stormy night!

Thank youuu!!  I wouldn't have thought of it on my own--I owe it to this really great dream I had!

Haha!  Haddock is a good wolfy, so he's safe! ;D


Thanks!  I never pass up a chance to work in some dramatic lighting, even when drawing a piece with minimalist colors!

Oh gosh I love the greyscale tones broken up by that subtle red, it makes for a pretty striking image overall, like he’s sneaking into a crypt (and all supernatural creatures around will smell the scent of smoke and know exactly where he is lol), which may be a good thing if he’s trying to help them

Thank you!  I don't play around with one tone/greyscale palettes often, and this AU seemed like the perfect one to experiment with!


Depends on if those werewolves like ciggies or not in their human form, they might just run off choking on the fumes! lol

Unless the cigarettes are special and contain something like wolfsbane or powdered silver lol *puffs fumes at the bad ones*, or allow him to see in the dark or heighten his senses like Witcher potions do *'cat' and 'thunderbolt' all the way to the kill*

Great linework, as usual, btw.

Ooh maaaan I love this XDD Poor Tren- part time doggy trainer! ...I kind of want to do an OOC meet up between him and a pitiful werewolf oc XDDD :facedesk:

I really love the little red highlight from his cigarette. Bad habit, Tren- but awesome effect ;3;

Thank you!!  OHHHH, I'd be interested in seeing that! 👀  Don't think there would be much fighting based on the description of your werewolf charrie! XD


Yeah!  I wanted to add a pinpoint of light in the picture to offset all the grey (Cornelia does not approve either lol)

I'll have to color it >A>; It was kind of fun XDD

And no >>; Silence only becomes dangerous during his...erm. Time of the month. Werewolf woes and all that. The rest of the time he's a good little church boy. XD


I love it XD It makes it so much more intense!

Sorry it's taking so long! Work's thrown a few wrenches into the cogs of anything D8 :fail:

No worries!!!  Same on this end!  The life of a seasonal store associate is hectic! *RIP*

This idea is awesome! But I can't help but think of this when I hear of Trenton fighting a werewolf. LOL

I like that he's trying to help them subdue their wolf side. Getting the person to understand that he's here to help is not going to be an easy task.

Thank you!!  Haha, oh man!  I never thought about that while I was working on this AU!  His techniques have improved.


Yeah, it was inspired by a dream, so I probably wouldn't have considered to do that on my own.


Loving the new avatar, btw!

Haha! I just couldn't help but think of it. :d


I love it when dreams turn out that way and end up inspiring!


Aw thanks! I'm getting quite attached to it.

Oh awesome outfit! This is a very interesting concept for a story having someone attempt to save the werewolves instead of just killing them. I guess Trenton can tell if it's a baddy if the wolfy enjoys killing and maiming.

LadyPep In reply to PhoxnSparky [2018-10-25 19:47:21 +0000 UTC]

Thank you so much!  It helps that he's a werewolf too, so he can communicate with them and sense which are wolves/werewolves. ;D

PhoxnSparky In reply to LadyPep [2018-10-29 00:48:35 +0000 UTC]

That's right, he's perfect for the job. This AU seems pretty interesting. Between the 80's and this one, I don't know which to see more of!

That was a rather long read but I did read most of it.
I think my werewolves are a bit less likely to kill someone, but they can still do it if they hate the person. I figure they aren't as likely to give into the wolf side, unless the human side is so upset by the shift the human side goes catatonic, which terrifies the wolf side and makes it lash out. However, since werewolves are a separate species, a human bitten by a werewolf is a halfblood, and a human bitten by a human turned werewolf is a quarterblood. A quarterblood's bite won't turn someone into a wolf, but it might immunize a non-bitten person from vampire and werewolf bites.
