Important Blog Update - New Lore Overhaul and Rules Update
There will be some major changes in my personal lore and how I write for the blog with Chapter 9. I want to kinda highlight what will be updated for future fic and requests.
Imperator pretty much has been confirmed to be Copia’s mom with her slip of the tongue. I personally never wrote for this theory, and my writing did reflect this. But considering this is now canon I am doing a haul over to make sure my work fits! I want to write as canonly close as possible, and am making the necessary adjustments. So for now I WILL be writing Copia as Imperator’s secret son. Along with a few other changes.
With this new chapter for me this no doubt means Copia is also Papa Nihil’s son. Honestly, I can’t really see the lore playing out any other way than for Nihil to be the father. Especially reflecting on the Kiss the Go-Goat chapter and how the Nihil Imperator relationship has been emphasized in the series. I don’t feel the need to really wait to see this officially being played out in Ghost canon, so I’m making the decision now to incorporate this into my writing.
This means I will no longer be accepting any requests for Copia shipped with the Papas.
I don’t think I’ve ever gotten many to begin with, but I will be working to get the blog corrected and updated. I know I have at least one poly reader x copia x papa iii floating around and that will be deleted. I will also be editing any of my previous disclaimers that Copia isn’t part of the bloodline to fit the news. If you guys see any posts that I’ve missed (it can be SUPER hard to navigate all of my posts) please let me know so I can act accordingly!
And because this means reworking some of my previous lore, I have some new base head canons to go off of!
So here is the following:
~Copia, since Chapter 9, has had plastic surgery. Not really a HC, just confirmed lore I will acknowledge if prompted.
~Copia was born with the Emeritus eye, but he has no idea who his parents are. He thinks his was just an orphan raised by the Clergy and chosen by Lucifer. If it turns out he DID know, I’ll rewrite and update accordingly. For now he just THINKS the bloodline is outdated and fated to die out, and Imperator is his surrogate mother figure.
~Copia is the youngest of the bloodline, and they are all still half brothers. Imperator is only mother to Copia, the other three Emeritus boys all have their own mom.
~Nihil died not knowing Copia was his youngest son. I know I write as if Nihil is still alive, but in most modern pieces I will acknowledge his passing. In past pieces, I’ll still write him thinking Copia is some usurper.
~A few of the ghouls KNOW, but it’s a secret Sister Imperator has forced them to keep. The ghouls who know for sure in my works will be Special, Air, and Omega.
~Papa I knew immediately from a young age, and that is why he was the only one of the brothers to be ok with Copia taking over. And it is also why Papa took Copia as one of his Protegees, despite Nihil not liking the cardinal.
~Papa II and Papa III aren’t sure, but they’ve had their separate suspicions. They don’t care either way so long as Copia didn’t step on their toes too much.
I’ll be happy to answer any questions about it, moving forward!
