@freedomwriter76 AHHH THANK YOU!!! that makes me so happy!!
Okay so I have one more (unless I can think of another tent…I kinda want one more?? Idk…)
The Marvels
These are the Cirque’s shining stars. Their bread and butter if you please.
This tent is filled with Cirque’s magicians, sorcerers, card-players, tricksters, and all those with unique talents, gifts, etc who can steal the show, and hearts, of the people who come from all over.
While every tent is filled with those of unique gifting and talents, the Marvels tent is those who are above and beyond- those with powers, talents and abilities that fuel the imagination and send chills down your spine.
While yes, it’s not just for those with magical abilities, only those with the utmost talent and who can hold/win over a crowd is placed into this tent.
If Jocelyn and Nyx were in a tent, this is where they’d be.
The showstoppers! The extraordinary! The weird and delightful! Here, they’re accepted, and even praised as the most well-loved, and highest ranking in Cirque’s hierarchy. Though, they’re not without their own issues, prejudices and vices.
And despite their “rank” they do despise the Grand Ringmaster, and the hold he has upon them all.
Defining Traits: Like the Cogs, each Marvel is an individual. A creative. They each have a very unique style, even more so than some of the others. While the Cogs dress more efficiently for work reasons (though still rather eccentric compared to “normal” work attire) Marvels go all out with their accessories and outfits. Bolder is better in their opinion.
Their symbol is a an open deck of playing cards and a magic wand with magic spurting from its tip.
(Lander is a Marvel)

Hmmmm…i may not be the best person to ask XD Fantasy is most certainly not my forte, nor do I ever really read it, nor am I good at it, honestly😂
idk tho…it’d have to be something else connected to Cirque…*thinks*

@godlyfantasy12 how did I miss this??? XD
Yes, I’d love to try and help out as much as I can 😊 (not sure how much longer I’ll be on KP, but I’ll get back to you tomorrow or something if I don’t do so tonight 🥰)
June 20, 2023 at 8:50 pm #148490I loveeeee them
hmmmm…. What about a more dancing circus like a ballet-themed tent (only make it more uh… magical I guess XD)
Maybe something like this
Bales
Beautiful, gorgeous, yet grief filled
When the lights turn off, these people continue dancing, hoping that their hard work will keep them out of the Head Master’s eyes
every terrible thing, only makes them dance harder, In a way they try to live in the circus moment when everyone is there and watching them, and it’s happy,
and after everyone leaves they continue because if they stop they’re reminded how terrible it is, and how nobody knows what it’s like
because of their constant dancing, they’re not really popular, and they really have friends outside of each other and truthfully they’re not even the most popular tent, they’re just the people on the sidelines (even thought their dancing is quite impressive)
Yeah XD (don’t feel like you have to use it or even like it XD it only took me a few minutes to come up with so I’m not emotionally attached or anything XD)
Do me a favor…. Tell Cress I meant it
-ThorneJune 20, 2023 at 10:48 pm #148492@smiley ooh!! That’s a cool idea!! I actually might use a bit of that for the Vizards

#ProtectSebJune 20, 2023 at 10:54 pm #148493Glad I could give you some inspiration
(Seriously I’m in the mood for a new story to write XD) I have an idea for yet another Marvel AU (I swear I’m becoming Freedom XD)
But it’s so much fun to start making Pinterest boards and building characters
It’s amazing XD
Does that makes sense XD or am I just crazy? (Probably just me being crazy)
Do me a favor…. Tell Cress I meant it

June 21, 2023 at 11:06 am #148530@whalekeeper my land in my series called Cirque, yea. I’m currently trying to worldbuild it and the characters in it for book 2.

#ProtectSebJune 21, 2023 at 11:14 am #148533So actually y’all…. @freedomwriter76 @euodia-vision @smiley since y’all were interested in this topic
I think Lander (one of my charries) is actually a Cog… I was thinking about it and him being a Marvel doesn’t fit.
I was thinking he was a Marvel because he deals with Marvels.
Lander is sort of a Zookeeper.
He cares for the animals of Cirque, even tho they have just as much right as the humans and anthropomorphic species, they do need someone to care for them.
And that is Lander.
Many of the animals are in fact Marvels (tho some are Cogs, Jesters, even Vizards. The animals themselves are just as much a part of Cirque as any other race/species. Think of Nyx! Cirque wouldn’t be Cirque without Nyx….at least in Lyn’s opinion)
But yea Lander is actually a cog…not a Marvel, which makes more sense (though he could be a Marvel…but…it’s more like…he’s not allowed to be.)
I’ll talk more about him later though 😏
