YMMV / World of Tinir

• Memetic Mutation:
  • Oh yeah, you guys are here too.^Explanation Herobrine tends to overshadow his siblings. It’s telling that his page is one of the longest on Tinir’s World Anvil.
  • Herobrine is an angry hippie.^Explanation Between his reasoning for causing the Fall, and his characterization as an animal-loving hermit, this joke was pretty much inevitable.
  • How it started/How it’s going.^Explanation Juxtaposing King Peter the beloved with Richard the hated.
  • Seen 8:32 PM.^Explanation Jokes about how Hogimal’s lax approach to his worshipers is similar to leaving your boo’s texts unanswered.
  • Turavus is just Avatar Kyoshi but with water.^Explanation Unlike her elder brother, Turavus is deeply invested in keeping her followers safe no matter the cost. She once unleashed a river to drown an entire invading army in the blink of an eye.
  • I’VE JUST MET YOU, AND I LOVE YOU.^Explanation Kodiak the creeper-dog hybrid in the roleplay pretty much acts this way. The dog part of him must be a golden retriever.
• Tear Jerker:
  • The second generation gods are very regretful for their role in exiling/imprisoning Herobrine during the Fall. Turavus is particularly upset with herself for it.
  Turavus: I hurt my baby brother…
  • Several of the deaths of Treehold royals. Especially Peter the Dragonhearted (died in his sleep, but was this in universe due to his greatness), Hailith Chase (bone cancer), and Kubo Chase (fell into depression after the death of his wife, recovered slightly before dying in his sleep).
  • The Ender Dragon being the last of her kind. Worse still, she’s so old that she remembers when the other dragons were still alive. She saw her friends and peers get wiped out by hunting, war, and environmental destruction. (Unless the rumors of surviving dragon eggs are true. Hope spot?)
  • Celes’s backstory. She loved a mortal man, and well...it couldn’t last forever. Worse still, being the goddess of death, she had to escort her husband’s soul to the afterlife. Is it any wonder she’s disillusioned with love these days?
• Unintentionally Sympathetic: In Tinir, it’s easy to view the Piglins race in a much more understanding light. Unlike in the Fallen Kingdom tetrology that partially inspired Tinir, here they have an actual reason for invading the Overworld: it’s an act of retaliation after generations of war and colonization attempts from humans. It doesn’t help that Tinir also paints the Fallen King and his dominion in a more troubled, if not negative light.
