About the school
Daeva Collegium is a place for demons to train and meet the requirements to be daeva. This place is more like a training ground, as the status “daeva” is a job in itself. Students will not immediately receive the status "daeva" after graduating, but the school can help the students to apply for the position. There are no semesters, quarters, or terms or anything of the likes. There are, of course, breaks and holidays (where'd you think all the students went?) because it's not healthy to be working all year round. Students enroll in classes and will continue in said class until they have mastered the subject, and then they will have the choice to proceed to a higher level or choose a different subject. When students have completed all levels in all mandatory classes and 15 electives, they apply for a test. If they pass the test, they graduate. There are no grade levels (like grade 9, grade 12, sophomore, freshmen, etc) either. Everything is determined by the students' abilities and skill level.

Welcome to the Daeva Collegium. I'm the owner and founder of the school (LOL). Please enjoy your stay
Unfortunately not all school areas are accessible, because the teachers don't like it, but the Art Class and Cooking Class' Kitchen is open. Maybe I can bug some more teachers to open their classes for you, but those two are all there is for now.Good grief, enough with the school mode. Anyways, I'm structuring my cottage to make it somewhat like a building, but the "AV Crack Doujin" section is a throw-off. And, of course, I didn't really bother making demon OCs for the other students, so the only listed students are the 7 daevas in AV. Not so much of a school, huh? Ahriman is not here because he's a bother to draw. Maybe he's the cleaning service or something.
Oh, if you're exploring, don't forget the "room within a room". There are more links that isn't accessible from the main page. It's in the "Student Section" room, scroll past the daevas' pics and it's there at the bottom, before the comments start. There's the students' dorm rooms (still empty, unfortunately), the students' yearbook, and the school's collaboration projects. You can see the school's affiliates in the "Affiliates" section.
Oh, in case you're wondering what a "puff imp" is, it's a name I came up with for that furry pink thing RIGHT HERE. Not so much of a cool mascot, huh? I'm still working on a proper mascot, so this would have to do for now. I'll still be keeping the furry part, but it might be a tad cooler.
FAQ | Crazy songs and vids | Empty space for now | D_A's bizarro Aveyond universe |
FAQ (lol, do I even have questions?)
Q: What is the cottage about?
A: Supposedly school website lookalike. Just think of it as an AV fandom AU world.
Q: Where's the "hidden rooms" again?
A: Go to the room labeled "Student Section", scroll way down past the daeva pictures, and the link are just before the comments section start.
Q: Why are there so many empty rooms?
A: I TOLD you it's still under construction.
Q: This is an AV "extension" world. So, what's the deal here?
A: Well... The daevas from AV 1 are students here and the hero party are all Shadwood Academy students. No Mad Marge again, because I really don't like her. Drawing/dealing with Aesma is still better, thanks. There are no teachers or other staff listed here, because I'm too lazy for OCs but maybe I will find time to design staff for this place in the future. For my version of Shadwood, the druids are the teachers.
Q: Can I enroll my OCs in the school?
A: Of course. They'll have to be demons/monsters from the AV1 game though (because I haven't the time to play AV3), unless you want them to enroll in Shadwood, which isn't any of my concern here.
Q: If I did enroll them, what happens next?
A: They'll appear in the student's area somewhere. Not a dorm room for their own, though. Unless you bothered to make a full character description for your OC so I can understand them better.
Q: How's your students? What are they like?
A: For their personalities and such, go check what I wrote in the AV crack doujin section. They're pretty much like that NOW. In this collegium world though, the demons don't age THAT slow, so they aren't thousands of years old. Maybe 1000 years old is possible, if they're lucky. And they aren't that freakishly tall either.
Like, in the crack doujin version Tawrich is about 10 000 years older than Zarich. In here.. Maybe about 100 or so. Think of their age like the early people of the book of Genesis in the Bible. Adam reached about 400+ years old and Noah went up to 950. Something like that.
Q: Why make it different?
A: Because this AU world is a fandom within a fandom. So it's a fandom of MY VERSION of AV1.
Q: What are the elective subjects?
A: Too many to list. Each subject are very specific. Like “Disease spells” would be a different class from “Elemental spells”.
Q: How do students graduate?
A: When they have mastered all 4 mandatory subjects and 5 electives, read the “About the School part” carefully!! But, they can always come back anytime to learn more.
Q: What are the school facilities?
A: Library, potion labs, classrooms (duh), dorms, and training grounds.
Q: What is a “puff imp”?
A: A furry imp. It usually roams the school grounds with a hoard of imp-motes and attack students. They serve as on-the-spot awareness test, since you don't know when they would come and attack you.
Q: Who's D-Agas?
A: Me of course. Because people might get confused between Agas as in me and Agas as in the student of the collegium.
Q: You're weird.
A: That's not a question, and I'm not weird, I'm insane.
Aveyond Crack Doujin
IMPORTANT!!! Please READ
The Crack doujin is now a series of short gag comics, not a crack parody of the whole game. Why? Because as I'm trying to connect the bits and pieces between each daeva battle, everything ended up being so serious that I had to relocate everything to Pangaea instead. Then it left me with nothing for this. Plus, a lot of the things can't be explained other than with a “because I said so” and... unless you're ok with that, this isn't gonna work. I mean, the daevas upped and left their tasks for no good reason at all and I really don't know how to explain it. So... tell me if you're actually ok with the daevas going and hopping on the road with the hero party for completely no reason at all.
I figure that I should post some character intro here. You'll all get a better, properly illustrated character page later when I'm done making a decent cover *sigh* For now you all only have text.
These are the basic characters. The outrageous parts are omitted to avoid spoilers. Thank you
Heroes first! We won't be having Mad Marge because she is useless. Thank you very much.
Rhen Darzon Pendragon: A stubborn swordsinger who is actually the princess of Thais. She had to go on the mission to kill Ahriman because the Oracle and Talia said so. Is not very happy about it because her mortal enemy (for now) Lars is tagging along in the mission.. AT FIRST. It's always good to have an extra hand. And since Lars became somewhat nicer later, they became friends.
Lars Tenobor: A cocky and mean nobleman who always looks down on commoners. He is a sorcerer and he hates Rhen because he thinks she's a nobody, but got important all of a sudden. He tags along because he also wants the credit of defeating Ahriman. Well, he later became nicer. And I mean MUCH later. People don't change in a day. He's still snarky all the way through, though. Lars is not Lars if he's not snarky.
Elinidana ter'Lithir de Aramati: A summoner from Veldt who has 3 husbands and is looking for an fourth one. She joins the group because she gets to travel and hopefully find a husband. She's strong (what do you expect from women with whips?) and a little bit proud. Can be quite mischievous if she wants to, though.
Te'ijal Ravenfoot: This vampress is bored of her dark village and wanted to roam the outside world. She has quite a mean bite - she is a vampire after all - but isn't really that evil. She can sustain herself on human food for some reason, don't ask me how vampires' bodies work. She also loves the sun and is quite willing to participate in playing tricks on others.
Dameon Maurva: A sun priest who is actually in cahoots with Ahriman. He hates his mother talia because she killed his father and joined the party only to lure Rhen over to the dark side. Has eating tastes like an old person, acts like an old person, talks like an old person, and heavens knows if he IS actually a very old person.
Galahad Teomes: This paladin is very black and white and doesn't believe in magic. He also thinks women are weak, so he joins the party because he thinks Rhen needs protection from evil (hahaha). Te'ijal thinks of him as a pet/toy/slave. He can't stand her (Te'i), much less the daevas in the party (because Zarich is simply AWFUL).
Pirate John: Because he is a pirate, he gets into a lot of trouble. He used to be a dragon rider for the Veldt empire, but ran away because a woman with four husbands wanted to make him her fifth. Joins the party because the party needs a dragon rider. And because he basically had nothing to do otherwise.
TIME FOR THE DAEVAS!!!!!!! I know you're all waiting for this
So the order from oldest to youngest: Tawrich, Aesma, Saurva, Agas and Indra are about the same age, Nanghaithya, Zarich. Exact numbers: Zarich is 1750, Nanghaithya is 3267, Indra is 4312, Agas is 4350, Saurva is 6576, Aesma is 9375, and Tawrich is 11 876 (yea I make their profiles too, LOL). Random backstories and/or situations can be seen in my various daeva pics in the Collegium. Like little Nanghaithya beating up little Agas is pretty much still true in my personal fanon (why are they friends now is beyond even myself).
Nanghaithya: This daeva likes peace and avoids arguments or fights if possible. He'd rather obey weird commands than pick a fight with whoever commands it, unless the result of him obeying would land him in a worst conflict. He's such a nice person that nobody would believe that he used to be such a troublemaker when he was younger. Oh yes he used to be such a terrible little monster who bullies others.
Zarich: This androgynous daeva looks dark and creepy that no one can be too sure if this guy is a he or a she. Doesn't speak much, but very chattery to those (s)he is really close to. Looks very big and tall even though (s)he is the youngest daeva. Zarich's personal idol is Nanghaithya. Why? I don't know. And Zarich is Agas' accomplice/partner in crime/whatever you call it. Don't put them together in a small, closed place if you don't want havoc. Likes to play with hair (braiding, combing, playing salon, you name it) and speaks with random Japanese words in the sentence.
Tawrich: Even though he is the oldest he could still be very eccentric. For one thing he is obsessed with diseases and curses that cause disease. Another thing, he likes to act young. Like... Imagine a 70 year old man wearing t-shirt and jeans and sneakers, listen to iPods and dance hip hop.... That kind of thing? Scary? Yes. Double because he looks like a skeleton. Speaks like a pirate too.
Indra: Her blue complexion and power to control ice makes people think her demeanor is cold too, but in fact it's not. She is nice and friendly, and a bit motherly too, if you don't piss her off first. She is somewhat a babysitter for Zarich and Agas (Yes, Agas too) because all hell would break loose if nobody watches them
She's about the same age as Agas, give or take a few years (they DON'T matter when you're hundreds of years old) and the only other sensible person beside Nanghaithya. She knows a lot about fashion and hairstyles, and likes good gossip, just like a normal girl would. Saurva: A daeva who constantly looks like he just ate a very sour lemon. Can often be seen complaining about Agas, though he doesn't actually hate him. He sometimes acts very childish for his age (third oldest among the daevas), so bad that others tend to think he's younger than Zarich. He's rather scatterbrained at times, but is always serious, which for some reason actually makes others LAUGH. He would sometimes forget spells, and if things were especially bad, he'd sometimes forget what he is doing and why is he there in the first place. Hard to believe? Well, heck it, at least he doesn't forget who himself is. It's also hard to believe that he used to be Nanghaithya's partner in crime as a kid.
Aesma: This daeva looks like a moster so nobody could tell what is his/her gender. Very greedy and protective about his/her food, likes to eat weird things including people, and isn't very good with spoken speech even though (s)he's the second oldest and had PLENTY of time to learn how to speak. For some odd reason (s)he can "speak" properly mentally so others had to rely on telepathy to communicate with this creepy daeva. Has the most incredible speed that could even rival the Twilight vampires' and has a worse temper than a pregnant dragon with a toothache.
Agas: The third youngest daeva. He is too happy and careless for his own good sometimes. Likes to have fun, acts like he couldn't care less about anything, and likes to flirt with anyone though he never meant any of them and made those he flirted with freak out, especially if they're male (he's not gay, though). Considering that he used to be very emo/gloomy/anti-social as a kid, it's beyond anyone why and how he changed so much. Heck, if you told him to dance the caramelldansen, he'd probably do it gladly. Maybe even drag others to join him. But really, that doesn't mean he's dumb. He's just weird. Think Jack Sparrow weird. He can be serious.... when he's brain-controlled or hypnotized. Which is why he's all so serious when he kicked Talia's butt in the beginning of the story (I'm keeping that in MY story).
Druids!!! Thanks for reminding me, peoples. We only get the interesting druids here. Guys like Vohu Manah and Armaiti are boring. Oh boy, now we have lots of girls in the druid section. Yay for girls!!! Oh, in my head canon the druids have powers and whatnot, so people sometimes come to them for help in this and that.
Talia: The Dreamer who set Rhen off to the quest. It's basically almost her fault that Rhen got kidnapped because of the priestess ring and Rhen is still grudging about that. She killed her husband, the sun priest, because he was in cahoots with Ahriman. She's just so stiff about the whole good vs evil thing that she isn't very happy about daevas joining the group. Well, "not very happy" is barely touching it. She's practically hopping mad. Elini had to convince her they're all under her summon and she let them walk around to save herself from using mana too much.
Eithera: This fiery druid doesn't really act like a druid. She prefers fighting a hand in hand combat rather than prevent the fight to happen in the first place. She also hates demons with a passion and is especially mad when Saurva ended up in her place. Too bad for Saurva, because... well, something bad happened (read Saurva's profile and guess what happened). And if Talia was hopping mad about the daevas, Eithera was absolutely livid when she was, ah... released. Everyone had to restrain her before unnecessary bloodshed happens. It was so bad that she refused to come to the Sun Shrine until they get rid of the daevas. Well, it's eventually resolved by a completely random Deus Ex Machina, but at least everything's settled.
Daena: As a druid of wisdom Daena had a power of foreseeing the future. Why she doesn't do anything to warn the other druids and/or prevent herself from meeting Indra? Well.. I'm sure she has her reasons. Did I even say that Indra actually did anything to her?
Rashnu: Unlike most druids who hates demons and other dark creatures, Rashnu is more accepting of them, thus being the first Druid of Darkness after hundreds of years. At least that's what he tells everyone. The REAL reason is that normal human villagers would usually shower their druids with praises and gifts and offerings in return for various odd jobs that they really could have done themselves, so he chose to be Druid of Darkness to escape clingy followers. He likes kids and often played with the vampires and witches' children.
Character lineup
Because it's necessary for all comic/manga artists to make sure their characters maintain consistent height throughout the story. Can't have someone so tall then have him shrink a few inches in the next page.
Remember this from the Collegium? I changed nothing, and I still haven't gotten around scribbling in Dameon because I lost the original paper sketch and I'm too lazy to tablet-sketch him in
So.. If anyone missed the Collegium entry.. Left to Right: Rhen, Lars, Te'ijal, Elini, Galahad, Pirate John, Tawrich, Agas, Nanghaithya, Zarich, Indra, Saurva, and an unintelligible blob that is Aesma at the back. Yes, Rhen is veeeery small and the daevas are veeeery tall.
Dameon's height is somewhere between Elini and Pirate John. Indra is as tall as Galahad (and she's the shortest daeva). Te'ijal is 1-2 inch shorter than Galahad. Counting her spiky hair, she's about 1 inch taller than him.
Sketch is messy because I'm not done with the costume design, but at least you get the idea.
EDIT: I just tried to make sense of how tall are they exactly.. The numbers are rounded off to numbers ending with 5 or 0 just to make things easier. Everything are in metric, single digits are metres, 3 digits are centimetres.
Galahad is about 2m, Te'ijal is 195-ish, Pirate John is 190-ish, Elini is 175-180, Lars is 170, and Rhen is 160-165. The height differences in the pic is a mess.. I can't really tell how much of a difference 10 cm makes >__< Indra is 2m, Tawrich 220, Nanghaithya 235-ish, Agas and Saurva are both 240, Zarich's 245, and Aesma is 3m.
PAGES TIME!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sorry, nothing much but a greetings page. I hate inking and toning
After 2-3 years of fooling around with quack plots that go to all sorts of weird places, I've finally settled with something that is pretty much my personal canon in regards of Aveyond. I try to keep in touch with actual canon every once in a while, but this continuity is what I generally go by when I draw/write.
Quick history
I originally just wanted to make a cracky story but write it in an oh-so-serious tone even though I plot and write with "DERP CRACK TROLLAGE" in mind. The idea is that Dameon's story is pretty interesting, but executed badly, resulting in a major epic failure. Thus I decided to rub it in canon by using the same idea but applying it on AGAS instead, because Agas/Rhen has become my OTP by then.
As I continue to develop it, I became more invested in it and somehow it just became a "fixed canon" to me. The tampered AV1 became my anchor point to refer to when I incorporate the subsequent Aveyond and pre-Aveyond stories into the timeline. Then when I completely reworked my daevas in May 2011, I tossed out all the "alternate continuities and personalities" that were floating around and kept only one semi-solid continuity. "Semi" because I still do minor tweaks here and there.
