A LITTLE BIT ABOUT THIS SERIES…


Elementiverse: Post War is a series about beings resembling humans that have elements embedded into their soul thus being made out of their elements! And this isn’t just limited to the 4 basic elements, this includes all subcategories and a few extra powers! Now this may seem all cool and useful, but the elementals see this as a huge disadvantage. Since the elementals are embodiments of their elements (Well 70% of them which are known as “Pure Elementals” are like this. The other 30% are not fully made of their elements and just have the abilities. They are referred to as “Half Elementals”), that means any basic interaction with another type of element could be fatal. I mean, you’d think these people would have a workaround to that with it being deadly and all but alas, elementals are far too naturally aggressive to get along hence the words “Post War” in the title. Well now is a new era after a huge war that scarred everyone physically and mentally where some have become more aggressive or scared. And during this time period, a new academy has opened up, with the best education the world has to offer! The academy is two types of schools next to each other on the same campus, a high school and college. The two have a decent amount of separation though, making it so a high schooler and college student are unlikely to run into each other. But enough about that, the special thing about this academy is that all elements are able to attend (All rooms, furniture, and items are prepared so they can be used by anyone) and learn together in hopes to bring peace to the newer generations. With some elementals tired of the conflict, they have sent their children or signed up to attend to help with the peace! That’s where this story will start, with one of the characters, Natalie attending the academy for the first time who has genuine fear of other elements! Will she get over the aggression and fear to get along with everyone or go feral? Will Halfs get along with Pures? And what is up with the war that scarred everyone? Every character seen will have their story told just like the real world where no one is truly “The Main Character.”


Where Did this idea come from?

Some time back in 2016, Star was bored and wanted to draw. Maybe to improve her art skills? (I honestly don’t remember why 😅) She sat down at a table, and proceeded to draw the characters that would be known in the series today. Starting with one of the main characters, Natalie and then drawing a few others to be there with here. Of course at the time, it was just a drawing where students at the school couldn’t get along because they had opposite elements and just disliked the other kinds. I remember being very proud of the drawing, showing it to everyone I knew. A year or so later, I found the drawing and thought the original concept was very bland and thought it was ridiculous to hate another person just because they have the opposite type of powers, so I changed it up a bit. They dislike each other because being around one another is a life risk (Literally. The death count of The Elementiverse is higher than any place on earth.) One idea led to another with more concepts starting to form which brought me to the story I have today!

Here’s a part of the first drawing! Natalie the fire elemental (On the left) is quite anxious and mad at Mira (Name may change. In fact, it has over the years.) She is a water elemental (On the right) and her feelings are mutual. This art style is sloppy and difficult for me to look at now that I have improved (Or at least I think?)

Here’s a more recent drawing of Natalie and Mira without conflict. I prefer this art style much more than the original! There’s at least a 3 year difference between the two!

Fun Fact: I was originally going to make a web comic for this series and this was the decided art style: Simple and Cartoon-like! I may still make a web comic in the future for this series!
