full list of genshin characters and their possible godly parent (from percy jackson and its other related works)

no archons here mainly because they're gods in their own right and sadly no adepti/immortal beings (so no xiao, xianyun, or yae miko) no natlan characters either (made right before 5.0) since i know next to nothing about them. the list also includes alternate possible parents (because what i wrote down adhered to the canon of percy jackson eg. very little to no big 3 kids) so if a character also suits another god i'll take that into account. the entire list is also in full alphabetic order!

(this also specifies if the parent is a roman or a greek god)

if certain gods appear more frequently than other that's just because they just so happen to cover a broad variety of concepts/things (like apollo being associated with archery, healing, the sun, etc.) but that's pretty much the full list :) I might try to elaborate on each of these (especially some of them...) but probably not now :3

i keep having so many thoughts about a genshin impact and percy jackson au where in the vision holders are demigods and i feel like just screaming into a void would be healthier and more productive than just keeping it to myself and my friend’s discord dms so (hopefully) over the course of this weekend i will have successfully dumped all of my ideas into this blog :3

🚨TIME-SENSITIVE!!!

@moatazart is a graphic design artist and self-taught journalist living in north Gaza. He has supported our blog with updates directly from Gaza City, and both our page and the Tumblr community owe him an enormous debt for risking his life to share the truth.

Moataz, his wife Maryam, and their baby girl Maria were attempting to evacuate to Egypt following the destruction of their home and the siege of Al-Shifa Medical Complex that trapped them for weeks. They hoped to get to safety in Egypt, and find work so they could raise the funds needed to return to Gaza and rebuild their home. However, the day before they were set to travel, the occupation illegally seized control of Rafah crossing. The crossing is now closed and it is not known when it will reopen.

Moataz and his family are now trying to raise funds to rebuild their home after it was destroyed by lOF bombardment. They will not be able to raise the required funds on their own if they cannot reach Egypt, so they need our support in order to rebuild their home.

Let's help Moataz @moatazart and his family with the second stage of their campaign to rebuild their home in Gaza City! This portion of the campaign has LESS THAN 2 WEEKS REMAINING! Please reblog this post, check Moataz’s blog, and repost the link to your own social media.

Thank you

dont u think its kinda weird that pride isn't trending at all on tumblr. it's the first few days of pride month and utter radio silence, am i missing something

[starboycaelum]

Everytime I see posts like this I get filled with such profound sadness

Cause you know who has the same brainrot as you? The same unhinged feelings as you after you've read the fic? The person who always wants to scream about the fic with you?

THE PERSON WHO WROTE IT

I never used to leave comments but since I got into the habit of commenting on everything i enjoy it's been incredible. Especially when the author gets back to me about it and we get to have a discussion of what other ideas they had. One writer replied to my comment with a 5 paragraph essay detailing the Floorplan of the building the characters lived in and it was incredible

Anyways this is all to say that if you find a fic that just makes you want to scream from the rooftops, leave a comment saying that to the author and maybe they will join you and you can scream incoherently together

A (Somewhat Incomplete) Guide on How to Fake Sinner Profiles

LIMBUSIFY YOUR ARTSTYLE (optional)

The core components of limbus companies artstyle are as follows:

Textured, ink pen like lineart

Desaturated colours leaning towards the outermost area of the colour square

Cell shading with some texture

lots and lots of visual effects. God have mercy

Keep references around while drawing, as there are often lots of small details and these will be your guide for not going too crazy with your noise effects.

2. BACKGROUNDS

In the interest of saving time, here’s a free template for you to use. Feel free to change up the background colour however

Key notes:

The background colour loosely matches to the sinner’s eye colour, however usually slightly more saturated.

the outer border is lined thinly by black. This also covers the limbus logo section.

3. TEXT

The font for the light yellow text for your sinners weapon is Futura Condensed Medium. There’s a slight black backdrop to it you can get from duplicating the text and lowering it slightly.

4. EFFECTS

Sharpen, noise and blur will be your best friends here. Too high quality of a character sprite can make it not mesh with the background, and look odd when matched with canon portraits. Here’s a step by step process:

Add wear to the portrait with textured brushes, low opacity and blending modes. I’d generally suggest using gouache or watercolour brushes very lightly to establish texture, then going back in more strongly to indicate dirt and grime. Always use a coloured shadow.

using a blur filter, blur your character on the lowest setting possible, to the point it’s almost unnoticeable.

If your program has a layer texture filter, switch to the noise option and lightly cover the portrait with a thin layer of noise texture. If not, use your pen’s texture settings OR download a png of noise texture and set the layer it’s on to multiply, then lowering the opacity to around %5-10.

Apply a sharpening filter very lightly, only to the point where when zoomed in light colour separation and grain from the lineart can be seen.

aside from that, I’d always recommend playing around with colours, light and textures to make the portrait fit closer.

In the end, it can look something like this!

To conclude this, have fun, go crazy, and suggestions on how to improve this guide are very much encouraged.

I really like the concept of Dante having identities cuz I just think it'd be fun to see them in a bunch of different mirror worlds, like how I made the One Who Grips Dante and then spiraled and wrote like 200? 300? words on how I think that mirror world would be like and then I also have my Roland LoR Dante, and then I have distorted Dante and-

Saw a post somewhere that I can't find about Dante talking to Carmen and have been thinking about it ever since.

Just. Dante hearing all the thoughts they've put away for the sake of the mission, every single thing that kept them awake at night with only the beating of their heart and the turning of their gears for company. Hearing all that from someone else and not just the facets of their own mind.

Light overpowers darkness in every conventional sense, taking all those shaded worries and bringing them out to be seen, to be heard. Filling up the cracks in their mind, their heart, their conviction, not to insert her own will as Ahab would've, but to get them to understand who and what they truly are.

Dante would try and refuse, of course, all too familiar with distortion and how it twists a person's mind and heart to turn them into a caricature of who they once were. And these thoughts, these feelings weren't new of course, Dante got to know them well despite their best efforts to ignore them.

But over time, they wear down, bit by bit. The things they could never say to others for fear of... what exactly? Rejection? Judgement? Pity? Or maybe even a fear of properly acknowledging them, like they'd lose the will to move forward as soon as they look back at all that had happened.

The sun is something one cannot just ignore, and thus Carmen pushes through each argent Dante presents. 'Wouldn't it be nice to just let go of the responsibilities of a position you never wanted? To be, to find, to live for yourself - rather than being used as a tool by your past or others.'

And slowly, they relent. Its tiring to have carried all this along for however long they have. In the light, where they cannot hear the other sinners calling out to them, its close enough to the isolation they so fear that whatever will they can scrounge up is entirely eclipsed by the dread in the pit of their stomach that tells them that this is their future.

They've been living for the sake of others, in the shadow of someone else. So if they do distort, wouldn't that help them find the core of their own being? Help find what made them Dante, and not just a corpse puppeted by a bough in a clock.

If only for a moment, wouldn't they like to indulge in those thoughts?

Genuinely at a loss for words over this Anon.

Dante is powered by a Golden Bough in their clock. She's always right there...they simply have not gone deeper enough. As the hour of reckoning comes, the closest star, the sun will come too..

Since you recently reread Leviathan: The part where Carmen essentially vagueblogs to Vergil about how annoying Ayin's E.G.O.-favoring stance is (as compared to her wanting everyone to Distort) is fucking HILARIOUS to me. Essentially since it's implied that Ayin is now stuck in the light with her but can't communicate directly. Real "making your sure your roommate overhears you talking shit about them" vibes going on, super mature of her

That part is genuinely so fascinating to me. Like, yes, it is fucking hilarious that she's vagueposting about Ayin while he's right there with her, just silent and invisible. But it also brings up something very interesting about Carmen's beliefs and motives.

Throughout that chapter, Carmen makes it clear what her main motive for doing what she's doing is - she wishes for people to have the power to make their wishes come true without any help. For people to independently and downright selfishly impose their wills on reality. It makes a lot of sense when you consider that this is something she herself was unable to do when she was alive - she needed a whole team to help her achieve that dream, and even that wasn't enough. If only she had the power to make her dream come true without having to involve others...

And then there's Ayin. A man who was so dedicated to Carmen's cause that he stuck himself in a fucking timeloop and erased his memories just to be able to make her dream come true. Ironically, his devotion to Carmen's dream is likely what made her look down on him so harshly. After all, Carmen believes people should selfishly follow their own desires, ignoring the world around them. So of course she would be frustrated by a man who spent so much time following someone else's desires instead of his own. Ayin's actions during LobCorp were the very antithesis of Carmen's current beliefs!

But the most interesting part of it all is what happens when Ayin and Carmen reunite in the Light. Where, for the first time in his life, Ayin questions Carmen. He expresses his own thoughts, his own desires, his own wish. Of course Carmen doesn't like his idea, she thinks he's wrong on every level... And yet. She still lets his wish be true. She allows for his option to be available. Because if she didn't if she silenced him, it would be doing the opposite of what she wishes to do. Instead of giving the power to make one's will affect reality, she'd be silencing someone's will just because it didn't fit what she believes to be the right way. And that would make her a hypocrite, wouldn't it?

In one of the most ironic twists of fate, Carmen's belief that everyone should be allowed to unapologetically express their desires, to not have to compromise who they are for the sake of fitting in... Is also the exact same belief that forces her to compromise with Ayin. Because if she doesn't let Ayin paint the world with his own colors, then her ideal world covered in a mix of everyone's colors cannot exist.

I’m surprised not many people go into depth as to Angela’s original EGO, but I find it very fascinating.

Angela’s EGO is the exact same as the Plague Doctor’s. Which, in of itself, is obvious when comparing the two side by side. However, what not many people notice is the lack there-of in Angela’s version. This implies that the EGO she wears is a basic copy of Carmen’s (since it is literally the foundation Angela’s psyche), who is the most likely origin of the Abnormality Plague Doctor/Whitenight despite not appearing on the Keter floor.

Yet despite this, it shows up on Hokma’s floor. It could be because of its classification and floor category, but there has also been speculation that Ayin or Benjamin could be the source as well. After all, Carmen may be the influence but Ayin and Benjamin were the ones that resulted in its fruition. Adam, one of Ayin’s resulted personalities, contextualizes this in his “prophet-like” attire and beliefs. Benjamin, on the other hand, was a follower and was willing to do whatever it took to no only realize Carmen’s (and later Ayin’s) dream, but to also stop it as well when he found out how far he was willing to sacrifice himself to do so. This sudden transition from construction to destruction with the focus of saving another can also lead to the result of PD/WN.

Of course this becomes even more complicated when you throw One-Sin into this.

It wouldn’t surprise me if there was actually a third that correlated with the two abnormalities. Considering many holy things come in threes.

I don’t know. It’s stuff like this that makes me love the world Project Moon made.
