MAIN VERSE / POST d3

#⤪ EVERY ACTION IS AN ACT OF CREATION | queen of the isle verse. ⤨

after descendants 3, the barrier is brought down on the isle. one way or another. properly. the adults who still need to be punished for their crimes, those who are in danger of re-offending, those who still want revenge, those unable to be reasoned with, are locked up in an actual prison where they have food and rights and visiting hours. the vks either enrol at ben's new vk specific school, leave to make a way for themselves in the world (after having been checked over by a medical professional and given all kinds of life advice and a way to contact help if they need it), or choose to stay on the isle.

uma takes control of the isle. she takes the title ‘queen of the isle’, whether actual or simply ceremonial and she starts to make things better. headcanon post about this can be found here. she can often be found on the ship, in her cabin which doubles as an office as well as a bedroom doing paperwork/planning things, or on the isle itself, helping with rebuilding and making detailed plans about what needs to come next. she is happier than she’s ever been, she has her powers, her freedom, freedom for her people and they’re starting to make things better for everyone.

PRE-D2 VERSE

#⤪ THE REVOLUTION IS COMIN THE HAVE NOTS ARE GONNA WIN THIS | pre d2 verse. ⤨

this is set anytime before the happenings of descendants 2. uma is stuck on the isle, she’s always playing second fiddle to mal but she’s trying to make a name for herself. she spends most of her time at her mother’s chip shop, serving customers with an attitude as sour as anything on the menu. she dreams of escaping the isle and freeing everyone, to let them do as they please. to get them out of the hellhole they are trapped in, but it’s hard to get anyone to take her seriously with a reputation for being too small and weak to join mal’s gang and a nickname like shrimpy that sticks like the smell of week old fish.

EVIL WINS VERSE

#⤪ IT’S ALRIGHT YOU WANNA FIGHT. YOU’VE GOT A HUNGER | evil wins verse. ⤨

a verse where one way or another evil wins, either the core 4 drop the barrier using the wand and the villains flood off the isle to take over, or they simply find another way to drop it. but the result is the same, auradon is unprepared for the magical power of the villains, having stopped training their own magical children in use of their powers and they are overwhelmed and overtaken. either thrown onto the isle in a role-reversal or simply done away with. any heroes left must go into hiding. uma takes her crew, finds a ship that isn’t wrecked and they sail the world looking for other ships to pirate from. generic evil laugh.

AURADON RAISED VERSE

#⤪ I WILL NEVER BE SATISFIED | auradon raised verse. ⤨

upon realising that the villains are having children on the isle, king adam orders the children removed before the villains can taint them with their evil, or harm them in any way. the children are adopted, usually by the families who were the targets of their parents' vengeance, who know full well the harm that might befall a child left in the care of someone who haunts their worst dreams. uma is taken in by her cousin, ariel and her husband eric. ariel taught her of the sea, of her birthright, taught her how to swap her tentacles for a mermaid’s tail and taught her how to be a princess of the sea and land.

MODERN VERSE

#⤪ LOOK AROUND AT HOW LUCKY WE ARE TO BE ALIVE RIGHT NOW | modern au. ⤨

ursula used to be a high-powered lawyer, specialising in contract law- at least until someone decided to look too closely at her certifications and found that she wasn’t actually qualified to do it. she lost everything overnight. almost everything. she managed to keep hold of a property she’d been given in lieu of payment for one of her jobs, a fast food restaurant. without the money to do it up, ursula instead turns it into a working business. she starts running a chip shop and uma, once she’s old enough, is put to work behind the counter and in the kitchen. she resents the loss of what had been a pretty good life and the fact she’s now stuck working in a place like that. she wants to see the world and dreams of being a travel writer and of travelling with aid workers to help with disaster relief/building homes and schools etc.

FANTASY VERSE

#⤪ THIS IS THE ONLY WAY I CAN PROTECT MY LEGACY | fantasy au. ⤨

any verse set in a time period that is not descendants or modern. can be high or low fantasy or no fantasy at all. uma is a pirate captain and she sails the seas on the lookout for ships to steal from. but she’s also cousin to the queen of a country and is technically next in line for the throne, should something happen to her, so there are princess options available.

CHILLING ADVENTURES/ RIVERDALE VERSE

#⤪ SOME MEN SAY THAT I’M INTENSE OR INSANE | caos au. ⤨

uma is a witch, plain and simple, that’s all she’s ever been, it’s all she’s ever known. her mother is famous for winning souls to give to the dark lord, she tricks mortals out of them all the time and uma is raised to do the same. she steps eagerly into her dark baptism at sixteen and attends the academy of unseen arts. she’s exceptionally good at making potions and at any magic involving the elements/the weather.

HOGWARTS VERSE

#⤪ CANDLELIGHT LIKE A DREAM THAT YOU CAN’T QUITE PLACE | hogwarts au. ⤨

uma is a slytherin, she stops at nothing to achieve her goals and isn’t against manipulating people to get there. the hat itself barely has to consider where to put her, though it does contemplate ravenclaw. but she’s not a book learning type, she’s a wiles and wit type, with a sharp mind and a sharper tongue. she’s not a dark witch by any means, though her mother certainly was. potions is her best subject.

FIREFLY VERSE

uma nautica is the captain of the lost revenge, a peregrine class ship. She was born on poseidon, one of the moons of ariel. however, her mother, despite being a trained companion, chose to fight in the unification war (uma herself being too young to do so) and ended up having to leave their comfortable home and take up residence on a border planet instead.

POWERS

here’s a run-down of uma’s powers once off the isle and whilst holding the seashell necklace. all of these powers are things that we have seen uma, ursula or morgana do, some powers are taking from the book poor unfortunate soul.
italics denotes things she can do without the necklace, though most are to a lesser degree.

Ursula's history

so, i have some rather specific ideas about ursula and her powers and her past and how this affected how she interacted with her daughter. so, unless i am interacting with an ursula/triton/morgana or another character from tlm who disagrees or it is otherwise plotted, ursula’s backstory, roughly, is as follows. taken mostly from the poor unfortunate soul book in the disney villains series, with mythological influences and an attempt to write tlm2 into it. cw for some mentions of violence and death.

ursula’s mother was a powerful water nymph with whom the god poseidon had an affair. upon poseidon’s wife amphritite finding out about the affair, she cursed the nymph to ugliness. meaning she was turned into a cecaelia/cilophyte/octo-mer. her daughter, ursula was born a cecaelia to match. poseidon, feeling somewhat responsible, gifts to ursula the seashell necklace, an item of great power. he also tells her that she shall one day own half the sea. while visiting his daughter he has another affair with her mother, even despite the curse, which produces morgana.

they are better at hiding it this time, living together for years, ursula and morgana being raised side by side, but the truth comes out and amphritite is once again angered, deciding her first curse wasn’t enough she sweeps in and curses their mother again, she dissolves her into the sky, as the ultimate punishment for a water nymph, she must live as air and never touch the sea again. this effectively removes her from her daughter’s lives. amphritite’s rage not yet satisfied, she also casts out a young ursula, leaving her alone, in human form and with no memory of who she had been before. poseidon intervenes before amphritite can do any more damage and so morgana is spared.

ursula is found clinging to some shipwreck debris by a fisherman who takes her in and raises her. but the villagers become more and more wary of her as time passes, as something ‘other’ develops under her skin that even she is unaware of. ursula prays to the sea gods daily to protect her adoptive father and spends a lot of time standing at the water’s edge, feeling a pull she can’t explain. until one day, the call of the sea becomes too much for her and she jumps from a clifftop into the waters below, releasing her true form and her memories.

the villagers form a mob and her adoptive father is torn apart trying to stop them from burning ursula at the stake. ursula flees, disappearing into the sea to mourn and returns later to wreak revenge on the village. this involves calling up storms and summoning sirens to make the villagers’ ears bleed before ursula turns them into malformed creatures of the sea, loyal to her every whim, using a spell to invoke the old gods of the sea.

at this, king triton arrives and tells her that he has heard her prayer and found her to be his little sister, for whom he has been looking for many years. he takes her back to his kingdom. but, in order to hide her cursed appearance, he forces her to wear the ‘vanessa’ face and a mermaid tail instead of her true form. ursula eventually comes to suspect that triton had a hand in summoning her to the sea in the first place, and breaking the curse on her so that the villagers would attempt to do her harm and so that he could prove to his citizens that she is unworthy to rule her half of the sea and he should have it all. the final straw is triton telling ursula that her father’s death was justified because he was a fisherman and he killed residents of the underwater kingdom.

ursula snaps and rebels against him, looking to take the entire kingdom for her own, but is thwarted and exiled from court, where she removes herself to the leviathan skeleton cave and begins her work as a sea witch, biding her time until she can get revenge on triton. this opportunity comes when ariel decides she wants to become a human and the rest, as they say, is history.

tldr ; ursula’s mom was cursed for having an affair with poseidon. ursula is triton’s half sister, she was raised by a human after she was cursed to forget her memories. when the curse broke her human father was killed trying to stop her from being burned at the stake. she sought revenge, was taken in by triton and then rebelled and got kicked out.

UMA'S HISTORY

once upon a time king adam and queen belle united all the fairytale kingdoms under one banner and turned them into the united kingdoms of auradon. they took all of the villains and locked them away on an island in the middle of their bay, surrounded by an anti-magic barrier to keep them there. however, the villains that had been trapped there had simply been left to their own devices, and they ended up procreating and creating children.

four years after the barrier was created, a baby girl was born. she was named uma and she was the daughter of one of the most powerful villains to have ever lived, the sea witch ursula. the baby was beautiful and as she grew, she learned. she learned quickly and easily, and it was put to good use.

she was put to work in her mother's shop before she could even see over the counter. she took orders, swept the floors, did the dishes after closing and even manned the fryers while cook's back was turned. when she wasn't working, she was studying, attending the only school on the island, dragon hall through her formative years and then, once she grew old enough, swapping to serpent prep.

and when she wasn't working or studying, she was playing pranks on people. as the child of a well-known villain it was expected that uma would be pre-disposed to mischief and she was. along with mal, daughter of maleficent, uma played pranks on the biggest, baddest villains without fear. it was practically the equivalent of playing for the two girls.

but everything changed one fateful day when the girls were ten. a prank gone wrong meant mal fell over, prompting uma to laugh, but when her friend slid over the edge of the docks, unable to swim, uma was quick to attempt to run to the rescue. however, mal had only seen the laughter and having saved herself, she chose to take immediate revenge on uma. she grabbed a bucket of rotting shrimp and tipped it over the young sea witch, leaving her humiliated.

but it didn't stop there. having been humiliated and declared as weak by the daughter of the ruler of the isle meant that uma suddenly found herself at the bottom of the food chain as far as any of the isle residents were concerned.

this led to a campaign of open bullying and hatred against uma, sometimes culminating in violence (certainly with more shrimp being dumped on her). people no longer respected her power and as a ten year old girl with no magic, there wasn't much she could do about it. she grew to resent mal for doing this to her. from that point on everything they did was a competition.

it took uma years to claw back the respect of the populace and it wasn't until after mal was already gone that she managed to make a real name for herself. her own name, not the dreaded nickname.

but first, mal had to go. and she did, having received an invitation to auradon from the future king himself. mal and her cronies got to leave, they got to get out of the prison hell-hole and uma was left behind, enraged and distraught.

so she started looking for her own way out and an opportunity arose a couple of months later- after mal had failed to bring down the barrier and release everyone- when she heard that triton's trident had been seen on the isle side of the barrier. so uma found a way to win a ship and set off looking for the pieces of her mother's lost necklace, which were also being kept on the isle, to help her find the trident.

she got her ship, built her crew and together they found the pieces and fit them back together until it was in one piece. the finished necklace led them to the trident, but unfortunately they weren't the only ones looking and mal and her crew managed to use magic from outside the barrier to get hold of it instead, leaving uma and her crew bereft and still trapped. instead they turned their eyes inward and they expanded their territory quickly and ruthlessly.

weeks later, mal fled auradon and returned to the isle and her cronies and king ben followed. uma, having been told king ben was on the isle, ordered her crew to kidnap him, which they did. uma held him hostage to get mal to bring her fairy godmother's magic wand so she could break the barrier down once and for all, but mal tricked her with a fake wand and left with the king. uma found mal's spellbook and dived through the barrier before it closed behind them. she swam all the way to auradon and cast an infatuation spell on the king, getting him to fall for her and offer to take down the barrier for her.

it almost worked, but at the last moment it was revealed that ben was under a spell and uma was forced to flee. she dived into the sea and after a tussle with mal ended up diving down to the depths.

she spent a year trying to bring down the barrier from the outside without much success and when the opportunity presented itself, she rejoined some of her crew when they jumped through a hole in the barrier too. and then they all joined up with mal and her cronies, under the promise that all of the villain kids would be allowed off the isle. they helped her take down princess audrey, who had taken maleficent's sceptre and was trying to destroy auradon even though mal admitted she had been lying about releasing the vks.

uma volunteered to go back to the isle to try and improve it from the inside and her crew came with her. a week later, the barrier was dropped by mal anyway and the isle was freed.

uma has since taken control of the isle and after several months she organises a vote and is voted in as the official 'queen of the isle'. she's working to make it better in every way she can.

PHYSIOLOGY

on the isle, before the barrier came down uma had the physiology of a human, for the most part. she felt temperatures less than most people and she could see better in the dark and swim faster, but that was all the barrier allowed for, those are just things she was born with. the only very obviously non-human thing about her even before she was free of the isle was that uma has blue blood, because it contains copper instead of iron, like an octopus.

but once she is free of the isle and can transform, things start to get a little bit different. uma, primarily, is a cecaelia or cilophyte or octo-mer, whatever you want to call it. so her primary transformation is her tentacled form, this can vary in size, it doesn’t always need to be huge. but she can also take on the form and attributes of other sea creatures. some of her favourites include: a teeny tiny squid to squeeze through small spaces, bio-luminescence along the edges of her tentacles or across her skin and sharp teeth. she can also change the size of her human form and sometimes does decide to just be 8ft tall.

once she can regularly transform she can usually be found with fangs, like her aunt morgana, and occasionally pointed ears. her physiology perfectly adapts to life in the sea, so she becomes immune to pressure, since her body is adapted to life at the very bottom of the sea she can withstand those pressures, even though that would kill most creatures. she is also immune to extreme temperature changes as evidenced again by morgana, living for years in an ice cavern.

uma struggles to feel temperature changes. she can just as easily slide into an ice bath as a scalding hot one and suffer no ill effects. you won’t find her changing her wardrobe for the seasons. she also doesn’t sweat. because her internals are a closer match to an amphibian or an octopus, she can essentially choose not to have sweat glands and suffer no ill effects, so she simply doesn’t produce sweat.

because of her adaption to the bottom of the ocean, she can see in perfect darkness. she has nightvision unlike most creatures on earth, what most people don’t get to see, because once it’s dark they can’t see her, is that when she’s in a dark space, her pupils expand and her eyes go completely black all over. in this state, she cannot see colour. she doesn’t know if she can do this at will and has thus far seen no reason to try.

also because her body is adapted to the deep ocean, her bones are surprisingly flexible and can be put under an enormous amount of strain before suffering an injury. it is nearly impossible for her to break a bone. she’s also very flexible because of this. she can also dislocate and relocate bones at will.

she is also very geared towards touch, especially in her cecaelia form. her touch-receptors are more acute than a human’s and as such she feels more when she touches or gets touched. she’s usually pretty careful about who she lets touch her and doesn’t like to be touched without warning as she’s very sensitive to it.

lastly, it is possible for uma to make herself look like a real mermaid. but she doesn’t see why she should. this is mostly relevant in her auradon-raised verse where she never presents as a cecaelia and always as a mermaid instead due to the unwanted connection the tentacled form would indicate.

THE PIRATE CODE OF THE LOST REVENGE

each pirate ship has its own code, a series of articles that are given to new crew members for them to sign their agreement to. this code becomes the way of life for all of those on board the lost revenge. any crew member found breaking the rules is subjected to the punishment as laid out in the code. tw: sexual assault mention

THE AMELIORATION COURT

( and becoming pirate king )

bouncing off this post by @spheirrow

since long before the isle of the lost was created pirates have had a court. known as the brethren court, it exists to be a governing body of pirates. where nine pirate lords will meet in times of crisis or in order to uphold the pirate code, as laid down by the brethren court themselves, by pirates morgan and bartholomew during the court’s second iteration. the nine lords stand as representatives for all pirates. there could also be named a pirate king, one who could command all the pirate lords. however, in order for a pirate king to be voted in, they had to achieve a popular vote and since more pirate lords only ever voted for themselves this was nearly impossible. before the isle of the lost, there had only ever been two pirate kings voted in.

once the pirates were consigned to the isle of the lost alongside other criminals, they have found little need to call the court. it has convened twice in recent memory, the first during the coronation riots, where the promise of the barrier dropping followed by maleficent’s transformation into a lizard sent the isle into a frenzy and many citizens rioted. at this court, all pirate factions were called, the first-generation pirates and those born on the isle, they were all called upon to defend themselves and the territory belonging to the pirates from looters and rioters. it is at this court where uma is voted onto the council and named a pirate lord. she is the youngest person to ever have been named a pirate lord. she names her piece of eight as her bracelet, white wood with a singular red bead. captain james hook is voted in as temporary pirate king.

this is not without difficulty, the second and third generation pirates demand to be heard, and for a representative to be named for them too. a compromise is reached and uma is named temporary pirate king of the second and third generations. the pirates rally together to stop the insurgency.

the second round of riots calls for the court to be convened again. the cotillion riots spawn from, once again, the barrier being close to being brought down and then remaining closed at the last moment. unfortunately, uma is trapped on the outside of the barrier so harry hook steps in as both captain of the lost revenge and as pirate lord, having been given uma’s bracelet upon her departure.

there is even more arguing amongst the court this time, and though the riots are eventually contained, it leaves the feeling that the younger pirates are being used only as soldiers and that they aren’t being listened to by the earlier generation.

when uma finally returns to the isle, harry suggests that they implement their own brethren court for second and third generation pirates only, so they can organise themselves without the oversight of their parents, or the older pirates who cling to stupid ideologies that do more harm than good. uma agrees and goes about setting up a new court. she considers calling it to sistren court but decides that she wants to completely differentiate and move on from an old system.

in the end it is named the amelioration court, in honour of the fact they are working to make the isle better, and to get themselves out of a bad situation. uma is voted in as official pirate king of the amelioration court and instead of existing only in times of crises, regular meetings are proposed to aid in open discussion and moving forwards. the system is made fairer, with votes and voices carrying weight and with a focus on making sure everyone is heard. the court instils a new idea, the idea that no-one is expendable. something the previous generation don’t seem to grasp. the amelioration court decides to re-write the old pirate code in its entirety. to make it more inclusive, less restrictive and with less focus on violence as a solution.

THE LOST REVENGE CREW

In what’s my name and it’s goin down there are approximately 12-14 crew members, including harry and gil. with four being noticeably female. so, a summary:

harry hook is first mate, but in reality he is an amalgamation of first mate and quartermaster. he is in charge when uma isn’t around and he is in charge of overseeing that the crew are all doing their jobs and chores, punishments are rare, but when they need to be carried out, it would be harry’s job. he is also in charge of making sure food and water supplies are brought on board. as the only experience navigator on board, he also fills this role.

gil legume is the master gunner, as the son of gaston he probably knows the most about weapons, so he is in charge of making sure everyone is keeping their weapons clean and ready for use and in a battle situation, if uma is not immediately available, he’s the one that would be giving orders. if the crew got hold of gunpowder for their canons, he’d be in charge of those too.

jonas askari is the boatswain, he reports directly to uma or harry and he is in charge of keeping an eye on the rigging, having been taught by harry what it should all look like. when not on the ship he also runs a market stall in the bazaar, selling scarves and fabrics, funds from this go into food and ship maintenance where possible. he lives with the crew on the ship, having lost his family in a fire when he was five. his mother was a witch but he doesn’t seem to show any capacity for magic. he is described as having dark hair, a scar on his cheek and cornrows. he often wears red and black.

desiree tremaine is a deckhand and a strong fighter, she joined uma’s crew in the first instance during the quest for the trident. she longs for adventure and is considered the most wild of the crew. she is technically a tremaine, though she abandoned her family to move onto the ship. she adopts a more feminine style, wearing ragged dresses instead of pants, keeping her brown hair long and filling it with orange highlights.

bonny murphy used to work in sykes’ chop shop, but when the opportunity arose to become a pirate on uma’s crew she jumped at the chance. she’s not the best fighter, getting riled up too easily to the point that it makes her sloppy. but she’s very good at knots and takes her duties very seriously. she’s one of the best deckhands on the ship. she dresses for her job, in a fishnet shirt with dungarees over the top, she keeps her black hair cut short and tied out of her face with a strip of red fabric.

gonzo is one of the under gunners and the ship’s blacksmith, he’s in charge of weapons under gil, his duties are often sharpening and cleaning swords and making sure the canons are clean. he is often very opinionated and likes to voice those opinions. he can be considered to be quite a loud-mouth and you shouldn’t really tell him any secrets as he’s as bad as the goblins at spreading rumours around. he has middling length black hair and dresses in bright colours, wearing bright blue pantaloons and a jacket to match.

noelani is the ship’s medic, she has a clinic on the docks where she tends to isle residents as well as the medbay on the ship which is mainly used for crew. she’s very good with plants and creates all kinds of poultices and other substances to help her in her job. belongs to chey - see @clippcr for more info.

samson is one of the younger members of the crew and is a deckhand, he wasn’t involved in the first wave, but was instead picked up a little later when harry saw him carrying heavy boxes around the docks and recruited him to the crew. despite his small frame he is very strong as he’s actually half giant. he has two half-brothers, kieran, 21, and martin, 10. he’s grown up playing pranks on his brothers so he is very mischievous and good at spotting traps. he is small framed with fair hair and wears layered shirts, often bright colours with black over the top with slashes in it.

emily is a deckhand one of the most dramatic crew members after Uma and Harry. she is a fierce fighter and a good combatant. she is one od the few crew members who don’t live on the ship as she has a secondary job working in the market for her family. they sell homewares and she often saves the best plates/cups/cutlery to sell to the chip shop or donate to the ship. she has long blonde hair and dresses in dark purple, preferring classic style dresses with puffy sleeves. her dress sense is overstated and she likes to show off. she has a younger brother named elias, who is age 12 and has recently started work fishing from the dock.

brianna is learning how to be a medic from noelani. she occasionally fills in shifts for uma at the chip shop when uma is busy with her other work. she also often takes charge of looking after her brother, Bruno, and her younger sister, Bridget, who is too young to be on the crew but sits at the shop sometimes. She is practical and clever, often outwitting opponents instead of fighting them. she has mid-length dark brown hair and wears a bright yellow under-dress with a purple overdress and layered scarves for belts. she likes attaching shiny things to her scarves.

bruno is a deckhand and brianna’s big brother, he originally joined the crew, having worked with harry on the docks and being familiar with uma and the chip shop. he can come across as a little high-strung at first, but he is also deeply protective of the people he cares about, which includes both of his sisters. he, like brianna, dresses in yellow and purple, usually with a black leather waistcoat. neither bruno nor brianna live aboard the ship, instead they live with their parents in the town.

rafael is another of the dock-runners turned deckhand, he joined the crew in order to seek out treasure and adventure, but he doesn’t live on the ship. he has a shack off the docks where he lives with his father and his younger sister, rebecca, 15. he is one of the under gunners on the ship, taking his orders from gil and gonzo and he prefers to spend his time high up in the rigging, looking for enemies. he’s a fast runner and is often the one chosen to deliver high-importance messages around the isle as he’s considered to be trusted. in order to better blend in on the streets and not be easily identified as a pirate, rafael wears plainer clothing than most, usually in shades of brown and black. but he does like to add a pop of colour with a scarf belt or bandana.

octar is the child of a member of the hun army, they joined the crew as deckhand, but it was quickly learned that they have a lot of musical talent and so they are often the one leading the crew in shanties, or playing the music during ‘family’ nights (often accompanied by uma, harry and/or gil). they live aboard the ship but sometimes take days off to visit their home and their younger brother uldric. they identify as non-binary and often wear brightly coloured, loose fitting clothing.
