an elemental au focused on the architechs because i simp for them. currently takes place in the s6 world.

grian is fire, but blinded himself when he wasn’t careful with his magic, and set his entire base aflame in the process. mumbo is the only reason he’s alive.

iskall is earth, but lost control of his magic and had spiked vines wrap around his throat, damaging his vocal chords and causing him to go mute.

mumbo is water, and has no sensory impairments, but has a weakness to the sun and hot temperatures — much like a vampire, he needs an umbrella to go out during sunny weather, or else he literally starts to smoulder. he is also the translator for iskall and grian, since the latter can’t see the former signing.

iskall and grian both now live with mumbo, even though iskall could theoretically get by on his own. watching out for the both of them on top of himself and all of his machines can get rather tiring, but it’s the least mumbo can do for his friends.
