Aliasing god_of_hyperdeath → asriel_dreemurr
Link to alias

Reason:

same character, different forms.

Different character. Under the same case that mega evolutions are kept separate

+1. From what I see god_of_hyperdeath is just an aged_up asriel_dreemurr with black_sclera sometimes. Plus all god_of_hyperdeath posts are tagged as asriel_dreemurr already.

Mega evolutions are separated from their base forms because they look significantly different (forum #154877) and users may want to search for base and mega forms at the same time (forum #207185). Neither of these applies to the current alias suggestion.

Maybe we should alias it to Asriel_dreemur_(god_form) so that people can search for asriel_dreemurr* and find both forms, without having the Hypergod of Deaths tagged as Asriel.

^{...asriel_dreemurr_(edgelord_form).}

But yes, they seem distinct enough to tag separately. Without knowing the canon, most folks would likely assume that they're different characters of the same species.

What about his Delta Rune form?

Bumping because relevance.

I'm correcting a bunch of poorly tagged posts (too many people thought we needed both tags I guess), but I'm wondering:

Taller but without the tattoos and stuff should just be considered an older Asriel Dreemurr, right?

Well, I don't see any amount of hyperdeath in there, but that may just be me...

Look at the image Asriel is holding up in the first image.

I completely spaced on the little drawing. That's a good point.
If it wasn't for the drawing, it definitely shouldn't have had the tag.

I was referring to what Furrin said about adult Asriel, not the image's other contents. I was also joking slightly, at what point do we draw the line between having or not having enough "hyperdeath" in our Asriel? Try saying that with a straight face...

After some, very small scale, internal discussion we feel that Furrin_Gok's idea (Asriel_dreemur_(god_form)) would probably be the best solution, and simply tag that one in addition to his standard name.

If you ignore the tiny face markings and black sclera it's literally just the character aged up, instead of the character suddenly changing large parts of their body's design as mega evolutions do.

It's a difficult thing to keep track of all of the time, but I'm still of the opinion that _(god_form) is a good course of action.

We definitely need to keep them separate for images like these that have both forms.

I've implemented the alias god_of_hyperdeath -> asriel_dreemur_(god_form).

Do we want to make an implication from asriel_dreemur_(god_form) to asriel_dreemur?

I'm not sure if the fact that he's aged up is enough to not have both there anyway. We don't really make a distinction between young and adult links either.

(Also I approved the alias of asriel -> asriel_dreemur while I was there. Fite me.)

Like Furrin said, implicating it would make it impossible to search for posts that feature both forms. On the other hand, those tags are pretty hard to keep separate anyway, so I'm not sure if it's worth the trouble. Those two forms don't appear in same posts nearly as often Mega Pokemon do, etc.

Well, kid Asriel lacks the horns too. Without any outside info, I'd be inclined to think that they're siblings.

Edit: By the way, asriel_dreemur_(god_form) is stuck as general tag. Should be a character, right?

Was about to point this out. I almost made a pointless tag edit to add it before I realized it was down in general.

They do appear a lot together though. Plenty of posts will have him flashing back to being in that form as being in that form is a major plot point, and his transformation itself is quick enough it will show both. One post had one show up that showed them side by side as two halves in one panel. And then there's the delta rune form.

It's not a guarantee, though. One can certainly appear without the other, and there are many images where they're separate.

My point is if they are the same tag or implicated then there is no way to search both.

So hey, not sure if anyone noticed this, but it should be "Dreemurr", not "Dreemur."

You mean Asriel_dreemur_(god_form)? Yea... that may want to be fixed.
