*This page is currently under construction. More information will be added soon.*

## General

**Champions of Avalice** is a crossover series created by WackyZebra on Deviantart. The series merges the universe of the Freedom Planet series with the universe of Wacky's original characters. The series was first teased on Wacky's Deviantart page on February 8, 2018 before the series made its debut in the same year on March 22.

## Development

The original idea for Champions of Avalice was intended to be a crossover with the Sonic universe. However, the idea was scrapped as the concept felt "too generic" and wanted to experiment with a different franchise. The decision then came to revolve the crossover with the Freedom Planet universe. The writer also mentions that the anime *Sonic X* was the inspiration for the overall concept of the series.

Most of Freedom Planet's characters, locations, and lore are used throughout the series, with no extra creations made by the writer. The writer challenged himself to create the series using only the source material, while mixing in elements from his own characters' universe.

## Setting

The setting of the series takes place mainly in Avalice one year after the events of Freedom Planet. Elementia, the homeworld of Team Wacky, is only present for a brief amount of time. Certain events from the first game, such as Lord Brevon's invasion and the transformation of the Kingdom Stone, are utilized in the series' overall setting as the Elementians learn more about the world of Avalice.

## Summary

*Spoilers will be present throughout this section. It is highly recommended to be up to date on the series before continuing down*

Wacky the Zebra, Blade the Hedgehog, and Ace the Falcon are storming Nightmare Roost, the fortress of their long-standing enemy Talon, in an attempt to stop his "world-ruining" plan that has been rumored by the public. The rumors turn out to be a hoax as it becomes a ploy to test the hyena brothers' interdimensional portal. The three champions and their Elemental Crystals, alongside Talon and his men, are sucked into the portal and are transported to Avalice. The champion trio soon wake up outside of the city of Shang Tu, where they proceed to make their way towards the Royal Palace. Minutes before their arrival, Lilac wakes up inside her treehouse alongside Carol and Milla. They reminisce about the recent events of the invasion before they see the sky suddenly become darker. Milla suddenly draws the girls' attention to a strange portal overhead as they witness seven colored meteors fall from the portal, with Lilac noticing three figures landing near Shang Tu alongside a yellow meteor. While the heroines rush to the scene of the crash, the Elementians soon meet with General Gong and Neera Li, who take them to see the Royal Magister upon Wacky's request. The Elementians explain to the Magister about their arrival and, despite their claims that they mean no harm, are declared a neutral threat until otherwise. Meanwhile, Team Lilac reach the crash site and find tracks that lead to Shang Tu. Before following them, Lilac spots a strange glowing yellow gem in the crater and takes it with her, curious as to what it is and what kind of power it contains. Shang Tu soon gets attacked by Serpentine, but soon gets intervened by Team Wacky. The group soon engages in combat before Serpentine ends up cornering Ace and prepares to finish him off, but not before the trio sees a purple draconian speed in front of and shield Ace from the would-be assault. The champions soon meet the heroine trio and are about to introduce themselves before deciding to wait until Serpentine was driven away. The heroes successfully defeat Serpentine and send him flying out of the city. Magister, who received word of Team Wacky's act of bravery from Gong and Neera, deem the trio as no threat and welcomes them to Avalice. Lilac offers them to live with her and the others at their treehouse, to which Wacky gladly accepts.

Later that day, hyena brothers Sly and Vex were incognito, gathering information about their enemies and Avalice's young heroes, especially Lilac. They relayed the information back to Talon, who was out in the snowfields working on rebuilding his fortress using his own crystal, the Nightmare Onyx. The hawk was intrigued by Lilac's fighting prowess, even suggesting that her skill could equal that of Wacky's. He then orders the hyenas to locate Lilac in Dragon Valley and "invite her over", while stating that he will come to their aid should she refuse to come. When asked if Wacky and his friends should know about their arrival, too, Talon decides against it and to "let him find out for himself". Meanwhile after returning to the treehouse, the girls are told by Wacky how he and his friends were sent to Avalice. When Wacky states that he understood if the girls didn't trust them completely yet, Lilac reassures him stating that fighting back Serpentine was more than enough to earn their trust and decides to host a welcome party to celebrate their arrival. As they leave, however, they are soon intercepted by the hyena brothers who, after a failed attempt to take Lilac alone, contact Talon and informs him to help before pinning both Carol and Milla down, angering Lilac. She soon comes face-to-face with Talon, who intercepts her from above before she could attack the hyenas, and is quickly overpowered by the hawk before blacking out. Two Shuigang soldiers suddenly appear and attempt to stop Talon only to get severely injured by the hawk's elemental attacks. Not wanting to suffer the same injuries, a tearful Carol quickly grabs Milla and runs back to the treehouse despite Milla's plea of not wanting to leave Lilac. As Talon takes off with Lilac, the two remaining heroines return to the treehouse in fear, much to the Elementians' concern. They soon get a call from General Gong to meet with Dail at Shuigang Palace about the attack on his men and Lilac, to which the heroes agree and quickly start heading that direction. Talon soon talks with a now conscious Lilac who was restrained against the wall of his observatory and, upon her acknowledging of Wacky's name and befriending, angrily slashes the half-breed twice.

Meanwhile back at Shuigang Palace, Dail is joyous to finally meet Wacky and his friends, although wishes it was on more peaceful terms. Dail describes the "monster" that attacked his men as a red bird with black wings; a description that Wacky thought sounded familiar. Soon after, a small drone comes in and portrays a screen with Talon in the background, who introduces himself to the young prince. Milla discloses to Wacky that he was the "monster" that attacked Lilac, to which the zebra responded by demanding Talon to tell of the dragon's condition. Talon shows Lilac to them, still restrained, and deviously offers them to "pick her up". Enraged at his arrival and Lilac's kidnapping, Wacky heads to the snowfields to rescue her, but is stopped by Carol stating that she's coming as well. Wacky refuses stating that she doesn't want her to get as injured as Lilac, but soon allows her and the others to come after the wildcat states that she's not leaving Lilac's side again and that she's coming "whether you like it or not". The heroes soon arrive at the fortress with assistance from Gong and the Shang Tu militia and, after seeing the scars left on Lilac's body, infuriates Wacky and the others to engage with Talon. The hawk is soon defeated and allows them to free Lilac, who had fallen unconscious once more, and the five heroes carry Lilac out and back towards the treehouse. Wacky helps heal Lilac's wounds with a flask of water from the Royal Palace's healing sauna given to him by Gong before his departure. Lilac tells Wacky about the trouble and nightmares she had with Lord Brevon before stating how Talon reminded her of the warlord. Wacky assures her that she and her friends have nothing to worry about since he and his friends will help them fight the hawk. Lilac thanks him for the reassurance before hugging the zebra, thanking him for her rescue.

Talon soon meets Serpentine and offers him a place on his side, to which the serpent delightfully accepts. Meanwhile, Wacky tells the Avalicians about the Elemental Crystals and, before he could show the girls the crystals, remembers that they had scattered throughout Avalice, much to Blade's annoyment. Lilac, remembering the yellow gem she had picked up earlier, asked Wacky if one of them was yellow, to which the zebra replied that one of them was, indeed, yellow. She then showed the Elementians the crystal she found, surprising Wacky and his friends. Wacky then explained that it was one of their crystals called the Electric Topaz. After describing to the girls the amount of energy the crystals have and the dangers it could bring if Talon were to grab a hold of them, Lilac decided to help them reclaim their crystals before Talon could, to which the zebra gratefully thanked the draconian. While looking through the plateau, the heroes are soon intercepted by Serpentine and the hyena brothers, who were atop a reconstructed Robopanther. Neera and General Gong soon intervene to help, but soon after they arrive, Serpentine and the hyenas catch Wacky by surprise and crush him, horrifying the other heroes. As they continue to fight back, Wacky awakes in an empty void where he meets Lady Rosalia, the goddess of his world. Rosalia encourages Wacky to use the topaz, but Wacky is unsure if the crystals will work outside of Elementia. Rosalia assures him that as long as he has the crystals with him, their powers will be with them wherever he goes. He soon wakes up from the void and uses his crystal to change into his elemental form, much to the Avalicians' surprise. Wacky destroys the Robopanther with ease and sends the hyenas and serpent flying back to the snowfields. Team Lilac, Neera and Gong are amazed by what they witnessed and praise Wacky for his abilities. As the two pandas begin to return back to Shang Tu, Wacky quickly asked the general if they could inform them immediately if one of their crystals was found, to which Gong agreed to do so.

While visiting the town center in Shuigang, the heroes soon get a surprise attack from the Red Scarves. As they continue to fend them off, Wacky soon gets a quick glimpse of a certain panda dashing right by him before the heroes see the Scarves leave the area. The heroes take a moment to catch their breath until Wacky suddenly realizes that his crystal was missing. Dail soon finds them and informs the Elementians about the Scarves along with their leader and his brother, Spade, who the prince strongly believes stole his crystal. Lilac leads the other heroes towards the Red Scarves' hideout, but is worried that Team Wacky will learn about her and Carol's previous employment with the Scarves. After encountering Spade in the hideout's arena, the panda confirms to Team Wacky about Lilac and Carol's past involvement with the Red Scarves, to which both girls confirmed with discomfort. After defeating Spade and reclaiming the topaz, Wacky asks for Lilac and Carol to explain their past with the Scarves. Lilac does so, and worries about losing Wacky's trust. The zebra assured Lilac that she didn't have to worry about losing his trust since they've helped him and his friends enough to not worry about their past, relieving the draconian and wildcat of their worries. Soon after, Talon visits Spade and offers him a spot on his team, to which Spade denies as he needs to keep his men in check. Talon understands, but offers him to come to him should he change his mind before leaving.

The heroes soon learn from the Magister of a strange blue light coming from Jade Creek. Upon inspecting the area, they soon learn that the mysterious light belongs to another Elemental Crystal; the Tidal Sapphire. However, when Lilac touched the crystal, she suddenly found herself being imbued with the crystal's energy. When Carol demanded to know what had happened, Wacky suddenly came up with a possible theory that Lilac could be an Elemental Champion of Avalice. Lilac thought it to be impossible since she had no knowledge of how the crystals work, to which Wacky replied that it's only a possible theory. The heroes then proceeded to leave the area, but not before Lilac is suddenly grabbed by Talon via a metal talon. After they managed to free her thanks to a surprise attack by Blade and Carol, Serpentine engaged with the heroes. After some encouragement from Wacky to use the sapphire's energy, Lilac surprisingly uses the crystal with ease and assumes an alternate elemental form, much to the girls' surprise. With this new power, Lilac easily sent Talon and Serpentine out of sight and away from the creek.

The heroes soon visit Shang Mu, with the Elementians surprised with how modern it looked compared to the other two kingdoms. They soon meet Mayor Zao, who is overjoyed to finally meet Team Wacky and invited them to dinner at his palace. Zao tells the legend of the Ancient Dragons of the Before Time to the Elementians. Soon after, Wacky explains their own powers and the Elemental Crystals to Zao before asking for assistance on locating the remaining crystals, to which the red panda gladly agrees to do so. As he leaves to attend more urgent matters, the heroes suddenly hear of the city under attack by Talon and the hyenas, and learn that Zao has gone to fight back against the hawk. Talon effortlessly destroys most of Zao's artillery, stunning the red panda. The heroes quickly intervene and successfully drive Talon and the hyenas out of the city.

Prince Dail soon informs the heroes of a mysterious red light spotted in the outer regions of Dragon Valley. Wacky and Lilac believe it to be another Elemental Crystal since it was a similar case to the report from the Magister. The heroes soon split up as they search different parts of the valley before Lilac soon finds the source of the red light. As predicted, it was another Elemental Crystal called the Inferno Ruby. She suddenly gets intercepted by Talon, who proceeds to engage in combat with her in an attempt to swipe the ruby and the sapphire. Lilac is able to subdue Talon and runs off before he could regain his strength, but soon accidentally stumbles into quicksand. Talon soon catches up to her and, in a fake attempt to free her, swipes the two crystals from her person and leaves her to potentially drown. The other five heroes soon learn of both plights and split up once more; Wacky to rescue Lilac alone, and Blade leading the others to stall Talon, Serpentine and the hyenas for time. The four struggle to fight back the villainous team and the newly constructed snake mount until Wacky and Lilac soon return to aid the others. The heroes soon recover both crystals as Blade, now in his elemental form, proceeds to send Serpentine and the others out of the valley. As the group returns to the treehouse, Lilac questions Wacky as to why Talon has constantly been putting her in danger, to which Wacky replies how he's unsure of his reasoning for doing so.

Sly and Vex soon find the Frost Diamond out in the snowfields and brings it to Talon, who's pleased to finally have an Elemental Crystal in his hands. The hyenas proceed to use the crystal to power their latest machine that spreads a freezing effect over the planet they dub the Frostbite Virus. They first target Shuigang Palace, which forces Dail to immediately evacuate the citizens to Shang Tu before the city fully freezes. The heroes soon find the town frozen over and rush to warn the Magister before they are soon closely hit with an ice meteor that starts spreading ice over the valley. They manage to escape and reach the Royal Palace, but soon learn that Wacky and Lilac became infected after being hit by the meteor's aftershock. The heroes, assisted by Neera and Gong, manage to reach the fortress and allow Wacky and Lilac passage to shut the machine down. However, both of their infections almost reach their apogee, causing them to lose their strength. The hyenas and Serpentine soon enter the same room to finish them off, but not before the rest of the group intervenes. Before the two factors can engage in combat, Wacky uses the last of his strength to reverse the effects of the virus across Avalice before completely blacking out. The heroes quickly take Wacky and Lilac back to the palace and has them both healed at the palace's healing sauna. Wacky offers Neera to hold onto the Frost Diamond as thanks for helping them fight back the virus. As Neera touches the crystal, the same aura that first appeared around Lilac starts to appear around the panda. When asked to explain what happened, Wacky reiterated his theory, but was still unsure about how it could happen in the first place.

Talon and his team eventually constructed a large battleship and proceeds to start an aerial assault, beginning with Shuigang. Wacky, Lilac and Ace, who were all out on a relaxing flight, soon notice the giant battleship and alerts the others to head to Shuigang to warn Dail about the attack. The prince soon alerts his militia as well as the Shang Tu army as they prepare to load up their Sky Battalion. As the group takes flight and proceeds towards the battleship, Wacky takes the time to tell the girls about their other friends, including his soulmate Breonna. Lilac wonders to herself if Wacky's relationship with Breonna is a possible reason for her constant perils, but not before Wacky informs her that they've reached Talon's battleship. As the heroes board the battleship, Ace senses his crystal, the Tempest Beryl, somewhere inside the cargo hold. As Ace and Milla leave to find the crystal, the others are soon confronted by a reconstructed Kujacker. Dail takes notice and helps the team fight the robot via a communicator given by Wacky. Meanwhile, Serpentine ambushes Ace and Milla and, before he could finish them both off, suddenly gets intercepted by Wacky and Lilac. As the four run back up to the deck, Serpentine commands the Kujacker to blow the group off the ship. Milla is suddenly blown off the ship, much to Lilac's horror, and Ace quickly dives down to save her. In doing so, he soon uses the beryl to turn into his elemental form before flying Milla back to safety and effortlessly destroying the Kujacker and the battleship. Ace swiftly flies the other heroes back to safety as the battleship loses altitude and crashes back down onto the snowfields.

The Magister is soon visited by Lady Rosalia, who uses her energy to communicate with him. The goddess asks about Team Wacky's safety, to which the Magister replies that they are doing just fine with the girls. Soon after Rosalia disappears, Wacky is out on a run through the planet as he stops by the Royal Palace, curious to ask if the Magister needs his help with anything. He doesn't find the Magister, Neera or Gong, but finds a strange blue robot in the royal chamber. He soon watches a projection of a message sent by the planet's ancestors and is soon visited by the Magister, who informs him about the blue robot named Pangu. However, Talon and the hyenas infiltrate the palace, overwhelm Wacky, and swipe Pangu from the palace. The other heroes soon receive word about the incident and together, with assistance from Neera, proceed towards the ancestral home to stop the villainous team from unleashing the Holodragon.
