Alexander Koshkin's illustration for russian tale "The Great Snake" by Pavel Bazhov.

The character of Poloz the Great Snake is based on the Ural legends, miner's omens, and on the superstitions of the Khanty, the Mansi people, and the Bashkirs. The legends about Poloz, a giant serpent 6–10 meters long, still exist at the Urals. In the Bashkir folklore there is the character the Master of Gold, which can appear as various animals, including the snake. At the Urals he is also called The Serpent or The Snake King (Russian: Змеиный царь, Zmeinyj tsar). It is believed that the grass turns yellow where he touches the surface. Poloz and the snake trails in general indicate the location of gold. Slowworms are his servants.

Russian illustrator, Alexander Koshkin (b. 1952).

[survivethejive]

I was given this book, Heroes, Monsters and other Worlds from RUSSIAN MYTHOLOGY by Elizabeth Warner for my third birthday. The illustration by Alexander Koshkin depicts the Russian peasants destroying their idol of the formerly beloved god Perun, who, their leader has told them, they are now required to despise. There is nothing new under the sun, as it says in the Bible. #iconoclast #iconoclasts #blm #vandalism #icantbreathe https://www.instagram.com/p/CBgNNPzg2Vk/?igshid=1q8c0gjphjshq

Alexander Koshkin's illustration for russian tale "The Dancing Fire-Fairy" by Pavel Bazhov.

Her name in Russian Огневушка-поскакушка (Ognevushka-poskakushka (lit. "the hopping fire girl").

Bazhov's stories are based on the oral lore of the miners and gold prospectors. In their stories, she is a dancing girl who shows the location of gold. The help of such mythical creature would explain why some miners were luckier than others, and unexplained natural phenomena such as the location of gold. She is sometimes called the daughter of Poloz the Great Snake from "The Great Snake" tale.

Welcome, one and all, to the Chicago Day of Giving, hosted by the ever benevolent Washington family. Treat yourself to a night of luxury with wine tastings, an art and people auction, gift bags, photo booths, dancing, and, of course, a four-course meal catered by Alinea on North Halsted. Naturally, this night is all about giving, so feel free to offer donations online or at the door. As for the dress code, this is a black tie only event, so don your most expensive gowns and that suit you’ve been saving for a special occasion. Let’s make sure tonight will be a night to remember !

( Feel free to create a moodboard for your character’s outfit and post it on the dash, as well as the gala chat on Discord. )

It’s time to be an upstanding citizen by providing support for your city, and the Vasiles, Fausts, and O’Sheas all have some standing up to do. Each family has contributed a hefty donation in hopes of turning the Washingtons to their favor so they may be de-demonized in the crimson city. It’s time to play well with others. Your characters will be free to roam where they please until 10 p.m. EST, when it’s time to settle down for dinner. During dinner, characters will be randomly assigned a seat at a table that could be packed with enemies. Keep smiling, though, the cameras are watching.

Part one of the Chicago Day of Giving starts now and ends on Wednesday at midnight EST. Challenge yourself to write with everyone at your table, and let’s spread the love a little bit ! You know, before...never mind.

Under the cut, you’ll find your groupings for dinner. Reminder, dinner starts at 10 p.m. EST tonight and will end at midnight on Wednesday, May 27th, at 11:59PM EST.
