Arcane Claggor - Blog Posts
he looks so in a jar puttable and shakeable. i need to put him in a jar so bad,i need to shake the jar for sience, i need to see him fly around in there and get violently concussed, i need to observe his natural behaviour in my jar, pretty please.
I had an idea for an au of Arcane and I don't have anyone to share it with, so I'll post it here
Basically this au consists of Jayce and Ximena being from Noxus. And I will explain how
(Contains some spoilers for s1 and s2 of Arcane)
Jayce and his mother are emigrants (basically for me, but the show itself shows him and his mother traveling to another place); since they were in a blizzard and such.
They probably left Freljord and/or some village there, probably for better living conditions, since there probably isn't much in a place that is covered in snow.
Where I want to go, Freljord has Demacia and Noxus as nearby places. And I believe that the two (Jayce and Ximena) didn't have much choice of place, because Freljord is VERY far from Piltover and Zaun and they probably wouldn't leave with the objective of going there knowing that they could die from the cold in less time.
They only got out of there alive because the wizard teleported them to Piltover and Zaun or a place nearby. So they went to Piltover.
But if the wizard didn't show up, let's assume that Ximena didn't faint, so she and Jayce left Freljord. And depending on the location, they would cross paths with Demacia or Noxus.
(There's also the option of Ximena fainting, the wizard Viktor not showing up, and baby Jayce would have to go on alone, but I feel like he would die.)
And I want to think that they would cross paths with Noxus and most likely stay there. (That's because I like Noxus more than Demacia.)
Why is that? As much as Demacia is a beautiful nation and all, it's a nation in crisis and those who live beyond its borders are viewed with suspicion. (It's in the official website biography.)
Unlike Noxus, it's seen as brutal by outsiders, but in truth Noxus is a very inclusive nation. They respect and encourage talented individuals, and they value strength above all else. Anyone can grow up there, regardless of social class, if they want to.
Although noble families still have great power, if Jayce and Ximena went there, they could grow up very well.
Although to gain respect, stay strong and have a position, you have to be constantly challenged.
What got me thinking about Jayce being from there was that there are forges there, making weapons and armor.
Basically, I thought, Jayce could very well grow up working in the forge, making weapons and fighting.
Not only that, there are also engineers, warriors and rangers there and Jayce could very well be one of them.
There is also the possibility that the wizard did appear and took them to Noxus and still gave the stone to Jayce.
(You know, try in this universe somewhere else instead of Piltover)
But then he wouldn't meet Viktor, Heimerdinger or even Mel
(he could meet Mel, very unlikely but he could still meet her in Noxus.)
What would be better, besides strength, the Noxians greatly respect those who have magic and recruit them to serve the empire (if he could)
If Jayce still discovered hextech there, it would be good for him, since strength manifests itself in many ways and individuals with magic are respected, it would be a combo.
But if he invented hextech in Noxus, much of Piltover's progress would not exist and would go to Noxus.
Which would make Noxus more powerful, but since Piltover has many geniuses, the academy and such, Jayce could go there in search of improving hextech and creating magic.
Which would be likely, because he would have the same problem of not being able to create (before Viktor's help) and all attempts would fail, which would be the reason for him to go to Piltover and enter the academy.
I think it could be a time before the apartment exploded.
But, it would also work if it wasn't, because if Vi, Powder, Claggor and Miloy still invaded any apartment, they wouldn't cause the explosion and wouldn't even be caught or seen (it would basically be almost the same thing as the perfect alternative universe of arcane.)
This is the idea I had, I really want to write but at the same time I don't know how.
I really want to hear other people's opinions.
OI love your art so much! Are you okay? You haven't posted in weeks!💔💔
Salty comes back for one post before leaving again, part 230!!!
Jokes aside, I appreciate the concern, if I have worried any of you guy's with my sudden absence I'm deeply sorry :((( my final year of classes is about to conclude and I've been busy with end of the year arrangements and finals which excuses my sudden disappearance. Don't worry, though! Once I graduate, I'll begin working on all my asks as soon as possible because now I'll actually have some free time. Just wait for me, guys. I'm getting there. As compensation, have a High School AU! Claggor has been getting his ass beat by finals bc he chose all AP (advanced placement) science classes 😭😭😭
GUYS GUYS GAIDNAKDNAKDNAKD GUYYYYSSSS AIDNAODNAKDNAJDN MY FAMILY, MY DEAR FAMILY IS HERE LOOK AT THEM!!!! JELLYBEAN, I LOVE YOU. I LOVEEEEE YOU AND YOUR ART AORNWKDNN IM SO HAPPY EVERYONE GO GO GO SUPPORT GO MY SCARABS, I EXPECT 100+ NOTES ASAP!!!!!
Recreated Zaun Family Photo
Heyyyy I’m backkkkk :))) @saltyorio said I should drop this like the biggest bomb!! So here you go!! BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOOOM!
Here’s my take if the zaun family decides to remake the photo from when they were kids. Now they’re all grown up 🥹
P.S. I’ve been getting tagged and asked by lots of you! I will respond to all! :D Missed yall
In case you don’t know what photo i’m talking about, this is the artwork (not mine, i linked the source) i’m referring to:
THE TUMBLR BOTS GOT OOMF GUYS. I NEED YOU ALL TO GO SUPPORT HER BEAUTIFUL MOST AMAZING AND STUNNING CLAGGOR PIECE I HAVE EVER SEEN. The soft, calm, comforting expression, the pose, the BEAUTIFUL LIGHTING!!! WHAT DO YOU MEAN THE PABLO PICASSO OF THE CLAGGOR COMMUNITY COMES BACK AND THIS POST ONLY HAS 35 NOTES!!! THAT'S A CRIME!!! GO COMMENT AND LIKE NOW!!!! My beautiful amazing king.... too good for this world...
can i politely ask for more claggor content riot is slow
...If Riot is slow then I am slower 😭
Anyway... the long wait is over because I finally managed to finish one drawing! (I'm hopeless)
I think I've said this a million times across many platforms, but I apologize for my sudden inactiveness. I have an excuse for it this time! Please bear with me 😭
The reason why I suddenly stopped posting art is because I've ran out of alcohol markers while I'm rendering some of my sketches. I waited weeks for copic to restock their refill inks to no avail until I realized I'm going to need to force myself to learn how to draw digitally or else I'll never be able to produce fully rendered art again.
"Elle. You can just use any other traditional medium. I thought you knew how to watercolor-" I ran out of some of my watercolors too 🥹💔
I can just post my sketches and be done with it but I know the Claggor fan club are starved and I'm a slow artist by default so I want to start giving you guys quality content to make up for it.
By the way, I have seen the messages some of you have sent me on my inbox and I'll be responding to them with art soon. Some are sent like a month ago so I want to reiterate through this post that I'm not ignoring you guys. I just need... more time to respond to them.
But why do I keep getting anonymous asks though? Literally I only have one message on my inbox that isn't anonymous. I want to know who are sending me their silly thoughts, headcanons and short stories. I want to talk to you guys. Y'all better start revealing yourselves to me or else! /lh
just wanna say i rlly love ur artstyle and drawings!! It’s so nice to see ppl love Claggor bc he’s such a sweetheart 🫶
Just like my last post, this isn't an ask, but THANK YOU SOOO MUCH!!! There's a bit of paranoia in me that you all will eventually tire of my monochromatic artstyle (I suck at colors and color theory) thanks to its repetiveness. But it brightens my day whenever I have you guys just coming into my inbox, so say nice things. Here, for that, you all get a mini Claggor sticker! Might make some more in the future, but ehhh, I gotta think about it!
Claggor, as a character and a person, brings a huge comfort to me thanks to him falling into the archetype of big people who have gentle hearts. Gentle giants, basically. Not only that but he's so shrouded in mystery and tragedy due to the fact he's a side character in arcane and since Riot/Fortiche can barely care to give him and Mylo any damn attention I might as well do it myself. Sorry, Mylo fans, I'm GETTING there 😭😭😭
I love the little flowers in all your draws, I've always loved those little details🩷🩷🩷
This isn't even an ask, but I greatly appreciate the kind words!!! I'm glad my art can bring comfort to all my followers through the soft, monochromatic schemes and shapes!!! Every arcane character is assigned a shape, and Claggor is flowers (Survivor! Claggor is gears as an inverse!) Anyways, I don't really have anything eventful to say other than THANK YOUUUU!!! It's dangerous to go alone! Take these 2 Claggors!!! (By the by, my last post was labeled as mature content when it's arguably the most wholesome thing I've posted. The Claggor tit drawing is RIGHT there, yet it is untouched. Tumblr bots are so stupid, so I apologize for that! It's still under review, I fear 😮💨).
I made up an AU in my head now I can't help but think about it even more... PUPPY CLAGGOR!! RAHH
That sounds adorable!!! I tried my own hand at drawing puppy Claggor, but I wasn't quite sure if you wished for an actual dog, an anthro form, or just Claggor with dog ears and tail, so... here, I'm sorry if it isn't to your liking, but I'd LOVE to hear about the AU so I could get a better idea of what the vision is! Also, if I were to associate Claggor with ANY kind of dog breed, it would be St.Bernards thanks to their big, fluffy, imposing build allowing them to serve as good guard dogs but also function as great rescue dogs! Not only that, they're gentle giants who are relatively friendly, calm, and patient, though they can have a tendency to be stubborn and that just SCREAMS Claggor to me. I'd love to heat everyone else's headcanons, though!!!
I think you’d appreciate this meme I made.
The only reason vi changed into pajamas is cause she was told to.
CLAGGOR'S PAJAMAS!!!! (featuring bees 🐝, oh yeah!!!)
I love how some of my asks aren't even questions, just people wanting to show me stuff sigh.. I love the Claggor community. Though it's definitely dying because there's ZERO content no more (people lose interest very quickly nowadays) but here, as the Claggor artist (I only know how to draw him) you all get a Modern AU! Claggor in pajamas :333!!! This also counts as anatomy practice, I suppose! (Deadass, I think we should make a Claggor discord server or something because the Fandom is ACTUALLY dying 😭😭😭)
hi I come to you with a silly headcanon……… Claggor’s VA is a birdwatcher/photographer so what if Claggor was as well? fits in with his whole nature/flower vibe, plus I love the mental image of Claggor surrounded by birds like a Disney princess
I LOVE ROGER CRAIG SMITH SO MUCH DUDE HE'S ONE OF MY FAVORITE VOICE ACTORS EVER :((( Claggor would ABSOLUTELY let himself relax by taking pictures of beautiful scenery or bird watching for hours! It's obvious his things are plants, but that definitely doesn't mean he isn't a huge animal lover, too! After all in one of his concept arts he was drawn with a literal squirrel just for shits and giggles, which I'm sure is another way for the concept artists to say "Yeah he's an animal lover and stuff". He wouldn't have access to the best cameras, of course, but he would try his damn best to take at least presentable pictures of birds and attempt to do some environmental research on them. Anyways, here you go, guys. I guess this counts as a Modern AU! College Claggor, I hope you all enjoy him! I'm slowly but steadily answering all my asks, so if I haven't gotten to you, don't worry! I'm getting there!!!
Sooo... when are you going to draw me holding AU Claggor's man boobs? 👉👈
I knew this insanity was inevitable with asks. Hey, HEY, DON'T look at me. Look at @fiongbonto !!! They're the one who asked me to do this 💀💀💀 All jokes aside, these kind of batshit insane asks are hilarious, and I genuinely don't mind them much. My reputation as the wholesome Claggor artist is gone, but at least I took care of this ask so I can focus on the more wholesome ones again.. sighh... here you go chat....
(The amazing rendering in this piece low-key pisses me off, like, this is a SHITPOST HELLLOOOOO??? Guys, idk if I should even post this, but I'm just gonna say this, don't be surprised when I post SOME suggestive stuff once in a blue moon. Hopefully, I don't get weird looks 😭)
The Claggors reaction to a kiss on the cheek
Yup, I have officially lost my mind. You guys are getting daring, huh/pos
Regardless!!! It's a super cute request!!! and I had a blast drawing "The Claggors" both waking up because why not? They deserve their rest for sure. Hopefully, this is enough to fees you Claggor fans for this week while I take care of the last ask in my inbox!!! Remember, I will answer every ask with art, even if it isn't a question, so do not be afraid to ask!!!
oh also!!!! what do you think about the fact that Claggor likes to read fantasy novels?
I ADORED THE FACT THEY CARED TO REMEMBER HIM IN "JINX FIXES EVERYTHING." I think it also mentioned his favorite fantasy novel was "Sumprat Dreams" or something, but idk if that's Canon or not. Besides the point, we always see him and Vi gravitating towards books whenever they have the chance. I like to imagine in my little head that yearns for the Lanes Family to be happy again so whenever Vi wasn't available to read/tell Powder stories, it was Claggor who read them for her and let her ask as many questions as she wanted. He was just glad he could read his favorite book out loud and have his little sister engage in his interest :((( <<<333
How do you think the Claggors from either AU would react to being given a treat so they can have a break from their work.
This ask is so damn cute. I had to pop off and draw our favorite guy throughout all universes, getting nice things and sweet treats to make his life easier :((( <<33
Everyone feel free to ask more stuff or requests!!! I also draw other characters, so do not be afraid to request them!!! Helps with practice after all :'D!
Question... Question... Well, what do you think of trans boy Claggor headcanon and also him being aroace headcanon? (Headcanons i recently came up with)
I think it's cute! I have a different headcanon for him BUUUT I ADORE when characters get headcanoned as trans or aroace since the rep is desperately needed, so it is very nice! Also, it's additionally great because a lot of canonically aroace characters in media tend to be almost.. dehumanized? Often depicted as emotionless and robotic, almost so having one of the kindest most loving people in arcane be headcnaoned as aroace is really sweet!! Here, a sticker to celebrate your headcanon!!
I might make more pride arcane stickers in the future of all the different characters one day, but for now, I just wanted to draw something cute out. ANYTHING IN MY INBOX WILL BE ANSWERED WITH DRAWINGS!!! Is that mentally insane? Absolutely, but anything for Claggor enthusiasts.. the claggor cult must persist....
Omg I love how you draw the adult Claggors they both exude brick house energy. One just looks like he'd scare me more than the other. Because one looks like a teddy bear while the other one looks like I'd need to call him sir despite the fact we both in our 20s 😭. Man has a rbf that would kill me
Don't worry too much about Survivor! Claggor, that man is as gentle as a teddy bear when not constantly stressed every day of his life from carrying the firelights behind his back/hj. As long as no one messes with his group and little man, he's as sweet as a butterscotch honey pie. Please don't mess with his loved ones because even though he's blind he can very much body slam someone twice his size 💀.
( Brickhouses is exactly how I envisioned him to grow into but unfortunately that didn't end up happening in the AU, but I digress.)
I can just EAT YOUR ART rn, how do you draw so well??😭😭😭🙏🏼 And claggor my god I love the way you draw his body, the effect your drawing gives in my head is surreal, I love your artstyle smmmmm
There was someone who reblogged one of my posts who said my artstyle would taste like lemons and pancakes so if you're in for it of course! ALSO TY, I yearn for Claggor to get some meat back. Yes, he is stocky and muscular in canon but like c'mon y'all be so serious I think we know by know they just didn't want to make a fat attractive man. I mean they did grear with Benzo but I digress. Here, as a gift, have a Modern! AU Highschool Claggor!!! I'll draw the other kids and then a college AU but it will take time!
• ALTERNATE CLAGGORS?! (AUs and HCs! •
Decides to draw Hexless! AU Claggor and @peapeapeapa 's interpretation of their own Claggor survives AU but with some tweaks here and there because in my Survivor! Claggor AU somethings go a little bit differently. Make sure to go support them though, their art is amazing and not just the arcane art!!!
--------------------------------------------------
• Hexless AU Claggor HCs! •
• Established botanist along with Mylo, however Claggor focuses on hosting occasional exhibitions and Mylo focuses on the more business/economic side of their research.
• Allows Powder and Ekko to engage in his and Mylo's projects, where they take care of the engineering and the other two focus on bioengineering of the hybrids.
• Business partners with Sky! Sky was interested in his and Mylo's work thanks to her similar ideals and is a close working partner with the two. Might even be possible that Viktor is also interested in their research due to Jayce's absence in the Hexless! AU.
• Obviously was the first one to really bring up the possibility of making Zaun a easier and better place to live in after it's merging with Piltover. Mylo was initially uninterested but gained interest thanks to his brother's passion and selflessness to help others (The brothers ever :( ).
--------------------------------------------------
• Survivor! AU Claggor! •
• Blind thanks to the hex crystal's impact collision injuring his occipital lobe. Still rather capable in combat thanks to his keen tactileness and sense of hearing.
• Left leg had to he amputated after being found by Ekko buried under rubble comatosed after the explosion. Was comatosed for 6 months and eventually found out thanks to Ekko that Vander, Vi, Powder and Mylo are dead (to his belief)
• Ekko's right hand man alongside Scar, stays behind on missions due to his blindness hindering him incapable of using the hoverboards. Was taught how to fix them by Ekko so he's now the firelight's engineer.
• Unaware of Powder's whereabouts and believes Jinx is a completely different person. He is... reluctantly accepting of Jinx's new identity, still choosing to support her thanks to always being his little sister at heart :(
--------------------------------------------------
AND YEAH I HAVE MORE BUT THIS POST IS A YAPFEST ALREADY, HOPE YOU ALL LIKE MY HEADCANONS BYE BYE <<33!!!
• MORE CLAGGOR!!! (Alt Timeline) •
Also new profile picture!!! You all can feel free to crop any of the art and use it as PFPs, AS LONG AS PROPER CREDIT IS USED!!!!
Here you go, Claggor enthusiasts, I will make sure to be all of you guys private, number one chef in providing all the Claggor content our hearts sorely need! If you would like to read the HC annotations besides the illustrations, feel free to do so! This will probably be how I will tackle my own headcanons: by drawing them out. Hell, I might even start some drawing requests just all about Claggor, but I'm still on the fence about it....
(Also, might or might not start posting self-indulgent OC x Claggor art, but I'd have to let the voices in my head and the voices of the people decide...)
• Claggor!!! (Alt! Timeline) •
Claggor comes back from the dead in the alternative universe and STILL gets scraps in the Fandom. Artist Claggor fans, we must draw him more often because he still gets little to no art for some reason? Anyway, I have a slightly changed Claggor because I'm kind of put off by the fact they made him muscular and couldn't keep him fat like before. Not that I hate the fact he's muscular. They should've still kept him rather bulky because slimming down plus sized characters never sits right with me. Please just let a fat guy be pretty arcane devs, it's okay.
(My blog is a safespace for Claggor enthusiasts BTW, talk to me ALLLL about him I want to hear EVERYONE'S hesdcanons!!)

LINK TO CHAPTER SIX
zaundad’s au where vander is taken by the enforcers after turning himself in for the explosion.
something about miscommunication and saving violet from turning herself in.
after the fact, vander’s territory is crumbling and benzo is holding water in his hands trying to pick up the pieces. silco hears and quickly catches on that maybe vander had a point in what he was doing. because at least his betrayal of cahooting with grayson was buying them time. and now zaun is dividing itself into shards of shattered pottery. and every thing is going to shit because there’s no one keeping all the ducks in a row.
and silco doesn’t really forgive vander, but after getting a tip about how he’s fighting for his life in stillwater, it makes him get a little crazy and protective. so much so that he actually finds himself considering forgiving the bastard. which ensues a ton of loathing and journal worthy emotions as he plans to save his stupid fucking soulmate that he literally hates with every bone in his body.
but he has violet knocking at his door just when he’s about to make the decision to either leave the hound to the wolves, or take vander’s place himself. and she’s so much wiser than her years, and she’s so blunt and courageous, that it reminds him of the way vander would protect them in the mines and during protests. using his brute strength and tuff demeanor to steer away danger. how he would shield them and barter their way through problems.
here was this young girl trying to act ten times her size and fill the same hole the silco himself had been trying so hard to fill. she was so angry that vander had chosen her over everything, and THAT made silco stop for a while. it made him almost jealous.
because vander has chosen everything over him. vander had chosen to act on his violence and guilt and he’d chosen felicia and piltover and the kids over silco.
so, anyway, just silco being pulled in two opposite directions as he tries to save vander from deteriorating in prison for protecting his daughter.

Ok so I know everyone has already said that Isha is the perfect combo of Powder, Milo and Claggor (face, hair, goggles) but what I haven't seen anyone else mention is the fact that on top of all this, when Vi sees her, she is staring up at an enforcer with the same burning hatred Vi herself used to possess. In that moment Vi is seeing not just her old family, but her old self.
I feel like all that was needed for the arcane childhood friends au to become reality was Jayce eating his damn sandwich.
Think about it, powder doesn’t notice the sandwich, she doesn’t find the hex crystals, no explosion, Jayce kicks down the door, grabs powder, Vi goes back for the rescue and punches him in the gut, Caitlyn tackles her and blushes furiously when their faces get really close, Powder start pulling on her hair, this goes on for like twenty minutes. Mylo and Claggor were off getting Vandor who returns all the items to Jayce, who decides not to press charges cause they’re just kids, maybe hires powder as an assistant. Caitlyn and Vi develop huge crushes on each other and everyone can see it
Damn it Jayce this is why you need to FEED yourself
Day one of watching Arcane. I've decided to cave in and see what all the fuss is about. Bear in mind, I am also keeping up with Andor (which comes out every Thursday), so updates will not be consistent.
I will edit this post with my reaction to the first few episodes. Wish me luck. 👍👍
⚠️⚠️ SPOILERS FOR THE FIRST THREE EPISODES BELOW ⚠️⚠️
Update; Episode one, season one, Welcome to the Playground. I thought that Vi and Powder's relationship was so cute! (I know what happens later on, I know.) The animation style is very entertaining, as well as the story telling. I also thought that Vander was very... nice-looking. 🤭🤭 Very sad the cat got killed in the end, though.
Update pt. 2; Episode two, season one, Some Mysteries Are Better Left Unsolved. HOLY FUCKING SHIT. Y'ALL, THE LORE?? AND IT'S ONLY THE SECOND EPISODE??? Good soup. Also, I thought Vander was fine (he still very much is in my eyes), but Viktor? Y'all, he got me giggling and blushing my ass off. 🤭🤭 Also, what is his accent? I'm stuck between French and German, but I don't wanna look it up in case I get spoilers. (Edit; It's a Czech accent... Stupid-head.)
Update pt. 3; Episode three, season one, The Base Violence Necessary for Change. WHAT THE FUCK?? THEY KILLED MY BOY VANDER OFF??? BRUH, HE WAS GREAT. SILCO, YOU BASTARD MAN. POWDER, I'M SO SORRY, BUT YOU SHOULD'VE LISTENED TO VIOLET. 🤬🤬 Was getting very gay vibes from Jayce and Viktor. I don't think they get together in the show since I heard one of the main people who worked on the show hated the ship (which, like, sucks to suck I guess??), but no spoilers. Perfect episode to end off on the day with, honestly.
